Told 1t a Little Too Late.

ANDERSON, Ind, April 15.-Mrs.
J. Storr, spiritualist of Elwood,
Ind, claims to have been the
means of unravelling the mystery
Of the Foust murder for which
George Hires has been convicted,
though Mrs. Bolton has since con-
fessed that she fired the fatal shot.
While in clairavoyant state Mrs.
Storr was told that the dead was
not killed by the cars but in fight
at place which answered the dis
cription of the Bolton house. She
kept the matter to herself at the
time but finally told her story to
the officers.

Booth Is Still Alive and Act
ing on the South Ameri-
can Stage
NEWARK, Ohio, April lj.-Chris-
tOpher Columbus Ritter, who ar
rived from Germany in the winter
Of 1864 and through J. Wilkes
Booths influence secured a position
in Ford's theatre, tells a story of
Lincoln's assassination, claiming
that Boston Corbett shot Edward
Fuchs, an actor, resembling Booth
and not President Lincoln's as
sassin.
Ritter is we'll educated and has a
character above reproach. He de.
clared that he assisted Booth to es.
cape and that the two sailed from
Brazil May ,, 1865; that he soon
left Brazil but met Booth by APP
pointment in Hamburg eleven
years ago and on that occasion
Booth gave him pictures of his
children born 20 his south Ameri-
can wife. These pictures bearing a
strong resem blance to Booth, are
now in Ritter's possession. Ritter
says he heard from Booth last
winter and that he was on the
South American stage.

Martinsburg, w Va, July IS
Judge Nathan Goh has declared the
cigarette act, passed by the last Legis-
lature, unconstitutional and void
The fact was made public to-day in
the decision in the habeas corpus case
of Frank A. Miner, which involved the
validity of the act. The decision is no
surprise, as almost every one expected
it. The fight against the act was made
by the American Tobacco Company,
through their attorneys. This Compa-
ny, in May last after the passage of an
act compelling retail dealers to pay
tax Of $500 for selling cigarettes, ship
ped Miner fifty packages upon his re-
quest. He had no license and was ar
rested when he had sold one package.
Upon application a writ of habeas cor
pus was issued by Judge Goff, made re-
turnable to him here at a special ses-
sion Of the United States Circuit Court.
The case was argued before him and
submitted on June 20.
The decision is a long one and dis
cusses elaborately all the points in
question and concludes by saying that
the act, so far as it applies to cigarettes
imported from another State into West
Virginia, and sold in this State in the
original packages is a burden upon
commerce among the States and is to
this extent in violation of the CONNER
cial clause Of the constitution of the
United States, and also, that so far as it
relates to cigarettes in another State
and by the manufacturers sent into
West Virginia in the original package
for sale by the agent of the manufac-
turers and so sold in such packages by
such agent, it is for the same reason
imperative and void.
