RELEASE OF BENZ. EARNSHAW.
The friends OF Col. w. w. Arnctt
were busy congratulating him, yester-
day. upon the successful consumma-
ton of his well-directed and ccasele5s
efforts to secure the release Of Benz.
Earnshaw from the penitentiary.
From the time when it became certain
that an appeal to the Supreme Court
could not be taken, Col. Arnett bent
all his energies towards securing Earn
shaw's release, and in this he re-
ceived the substantial aid of many
prominent men here and in other coun-
ties. It is the general opinion that
Earnshaw mad suffered enough for his
eminently foolish procedure, and many
are glad that he is again at liberty.

ETIQUETTE OF ROYALTY.
Queen VictOria's Daughters All Have
Precedence OF Her.

Queen VictOria's Daughters All Have
Precedence of Her.
From the Philadelphia Times
A London paper tells story illus
trating Queen Victoria's well-known
strictness in the matter of precedence.
AS she was about to take a train with
the Empress Frederick at Paddington
station recently she reached the door
of her saloon carriage first; she drew
back at once, however, and motioned
the empress to go in before her. The
empress protested, and for a few sec
onds there was a little argument be-
tween mother and daughter as to which
should have precedence, and, the queen
laughingly insisting, the empress final
ly entered before her mother. This
was a striking example of the queens
punctiliousness in observing the rank
of her daughter and guests. Concern
ing this matter of precedence, 1t seems
little odd that the duchess of York,
who is the mother of the probable fu-
ture ruler of England, Is yet quite low
in the ranks at court. The queens
daughters and daughters-in-law all
have precedence of her, and, according
to Truth, her place at a drawing-room
is between the duchess of Albany and
the duchess of Teck. One wonders, IL
her son shall reach the throne, whether
her rank will be raised.

ages Arc Asscsscd-Pcnding
Equity Cases Arc Continued.

Among the business transacted and
proceedings heard In the court house
yesterday was the filing of a replication
to the answer of the defendants In the
Waverly school case.
Under the new rules In equity pro-
ceedings the facts are argued before
one of the judges Of the court instead
of referring the case to a master or
examiner to take testimony. Yester-
day the plaintiffs. that is Attorneys Il.
c. Newcomb and John =. Kelley, repre-
senting Directors George n. Stevenson
and Rev. ID. N. Vail, Of the Waverly
school district, filed replication to the
answer of the defendants, Principal
Fred C. Hanyon and Directors Mackey.
Stone, Hall and Stone. The replication
simply joins issue on matters alleged
in the defendants answer, and is very
brief. In this way the case becomes
ready for a hearing, which the attor-
neys will seek to have granted next
week.
All the equity cases pending in court
at present will be argued, or at least
are on the list to be argued, next week,
while the grand jury is sitting.
Attorneys I. II. Burns and John p.
Kelley appeared for the injunction in
the argument heard by Judge Gunster
In the morning in the case brought by
William Love and William Bright
against the city of Scranton to restrain
Contractors Flanaghan and O'Horo
from building section of the Fifth dis
trict main sewer. City Solicitor j. H.
Torrey represented the municipality
and the contractors.
The city has through the contractors
begun to construct pipe of the sewer
through an alley that runs between
the properties of the plaintiffs. They
do not want to allow the city to proceed
with the work until the damages are
assured which Love and Bright claim
is due them. A number of maps of the
North End were submitted and Judge
Gunster reserved his decision.
The argument before Judge Gunster
in the injunction case of Mrs. Catherine
OConnell, of Pine Brook, against the
city OF Scranton, which was postponed
from Saturday, was again continued,

KEEP OFF OUR GRASSI
From the Chicago Times-Herald.

From the Chicago Times Herald
The British flag has appeared once more
on American soil. We drove 1t off twice.
We may have to do so a third time. A peo-
pie composed Of u firmly united nation of
nearly seventy millions pledged to the per-
petuation of republicanism wherever re-
publicanism has been once planted on the
American continent will not suffer that
pledge, made by their fathers, indorsed
by their own common sense and sense of
self-preservation, to be fiouted.
If We must fight for supremacy of rep
resentative Institutions on this continent,
1t Is as well to have the fight now as at
some later time Americans do not want
war with any nation. 1t will be a blot
upon the history of the century If we must
have a war with a nation protesting itself
amenable to reason. 1t will be a greater
blot upon our own history If we fail to
keep monarchy off a continent whose
strong peoples and whose weak peoples
alike have shed blood to establish and
maintain hereon republican forms of gov
ernment.
Once more the British flag is on Amer
ican soil. Once more 1t must retire from
American soil, voluntarily or at the bid
ding of Americans.

THE GUARDS SYMPATHY.
Story Told by G. A. Sala Of an Expert
cnce on the Rail.

cnce on the Rail.
From the Montreal Star.
The railway world witnesses daily so
many piteous partings that weeping
travellers seldom attract official notice,
but G. A. Sala records an exceptional
instance. 1t was at the time of our civil
war and he was about departing for
America, as correspondent of great
London daily.
My wife was bitterly opposed to my
going to America at all, and the idea
of my travelling in country convulsed
by war so worked upon her mind that
she became positively i'll. Still she in
sisted on coming to the railway termin-
us with me, and party of friends were
on the platform to give us a parting
cheer
1t was a desperate moment; I had
parted from all that was dear to me
and had flung myself in very limp and
boneless manner in corner of the car
riage of the mail. l glared feebly at
the burly, bearded guard who thrust
his head into the window. He leaned
toward me and in voice hoarse with
sympathy whispered:
Excuse me, sir, but you have an
other three-quarters of a minute before
the train starts and you can get out
and give the lady another hug"

with: "She's too much for me. con-

"As the porter stood waiting near

what he meant by saying the lady was

with Turbulent Miners.
Cripple Creek, Colo, May 13.-Jack
Smith, the leader of the Bull Hill
miners. was shot and killed by Marshal
Jack Kelly, Of Altman, this evening.
The marshal also shot George Popst,
miner who was with Smith. The
shooting has caused a reign Of terror
In the gold camp. The miners threaten
to avenge the death of their war cap
tain. and all saloons have been closed
In Victor and Altman. Last night
Jack Smith shot out all the lights In
Dan Foley's saloon in Victor. This
morning he was arrested and placed
under bonds. AS soon as he was re-
leased he went to Altman, the miners
camp, and proceeded to terrorize the
inhabitants.
Marshal Kelly ordered him out of
town. Jack Smith opened fire and Popst
stood by him. Kelly returned the fire
and shot down both men, escaping in
jury himself. Smith was an ex-convict,
having served term for killing man
In Gunnison several years ago. During
the Cripple Creek strike last spring he
was the leader of the warlike element
among the miners.
