Strenuous efforts are being made by
Lawyer John J. Semple, legal counsel for
Barney O'Neill, to save the prisoner from
serving the term in State Prison to which
he has been sen ntenced. Chief Justice Beasly
of the Supreme Court granted writ of
error on Friday which will also serve to
stay proceedings until the case is argued
before the higher tribunal.
1t will not only result in bring up the
exceptions taken by Lawyer Semple
during the progress of the trial, but will
also open up the question of the consti-
tutionality of the act legislating the Lay
Judges from the bench. Mr. Semple OBJ
jected to O'Neill being tried last week be-
fore Judge Thompson, ON the ground
that the court without the Lay Judges
sitting was not legally constituted, but
was overruled and allowed an exception.
There are thoses who believe that
O'Neill was not guilty but the victim ol
circumstances that made him appear so.
The jury, who heard the evidence in de-
tail, are not included in the number, for
they rendered their verdict after a long
and patient sitting of the testimoney
after they had retired for deliberation,

The Pen and Pencil Club, which in
cludes nearly all the newspaper men of
Atlantic City, met at the Gazette office
question of requesting the Board of Free
holders to consider the matter of remov-
ing the County Seat. President John f.
Fl all presided, and Carl M. Voelker was
elected secretary pro TEN. The follow
ing resolutions were reported and
adopted as follows:
"Whereas, The Board of Chosen Free
holders are about to expend $40, ,00O,-
more or less, on an addition to the
County Jail at Mays Landing; and
Whereas, The present Comfy Court
House and Jail are both inadequate to
the needs of the county, and very
badly located for the convenience of the
great majority of people having busi-
ness at Court; therefore be it
Resolved, That in the opinion of the
Atlantic City Pen and Pencil Club it is a
great mistake to expend more money on
the present Court House or Jail, but
much wiser to provide for the future by
taking immediate steps to erect new
county buildings at Pleasantville or
Atlantic City, where they would be much
more accessible by rail and much more
convenient to great majority of the
attorneys, jurymen, witnesses and Others
having business at Court.
Resolved, That the Atlantic City Pen
and Pencil Club do hereby request the
Board of Freeholders to act in accor-
dance with the views expressed in this
preamble and resolution"
! 4ol 4h44 H. ~
Seat will be moved to Atlantic City, for
the land is too valuable in such q locality
as would be desirable for the erection of
the County Buildings, but Atlantic City
is ready to act in favor of Pleasant
vile if the people of Pleasantville
will do anything to help themselves.
Now is the time to act before another
large sum of money is expended upon
the buildings at Mays Landing. AS
showing still further how the news
papers regard the subject the Daily Press
of the oath, says:
Newspaper men, as well as lawyers,
have business at Court whenever it is in
session. Both feel the inconvenience OF
it's location and are anxious for change
that will bring it to a more accessible
point. The Bar Association ask for the
establishment of District Court at At
lantc City, which will be the means OF
ameliorating the inconvenience, but the
Pen and Pencil Club, of this city, by re-
solution, favor having hecounty building
moved to Pleasantville, and as a second
choice, Atlantic City. Pleasantville
would afford the convenience desired,
and generally be approved as an excellent
location for the county buildings, it
being more accessible by rail than any
other section of the county, outside OF
Atlantic City,"

Monday afternoon, by cutting his throat
with a penknife. He succeeded in in

deep enough to produce death. DR..

which required dozen stitches to close
it. Mr.. Parsells is highly respected
