A SON SHOOTS HIS MOTHER.
The Old Story of Fool and Dangerous
Shooting Iron.

On January 20, John Baldwin, a
boy about 16 years oldSaon of the
proprietor of the Livingston Manor
House in New York state, playfully
pointed a pistol at his mother, when
the weapon was discharged, and the
ball struck her on the forehead, fol
lowing the skull around and coming
out on top of her head, happily in
flicting only a severe scalp wound.
OF course he didn't know it was
loaded. Our advice is, if any one,
son, brother, lover or any body else,
points a pistol or a gun at you in
sport, and otherwise of course, to
incontinently knock him down as
hard as you can, and just as quickly
with any thing you can get your
hands on.

MAYOR CARLEY OPPOSED.
The Raines Excise Bill Would Reduce
Revenues From Excise.

The New York Herald this morn
ing, publishes telegrams from "a
Mayors of cities and towns through
out New York state, giving their po-
sition on the Raines excise bill now
pending at Albany OF the "a May
ors but 10 are in favor of the bill.
Our own Mayor, Mr.. John B. Carley
opposes it, as will be seen from the
following published in the Herald :
PORT JERvIs N. Y, Jan. 80, 1896
To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:
The town of Deerpark would lose
2,795. l am decidedly opposed to
the Raines bill. j. B. CARLEY
The ground of opposition in nearly
all cases is the reduction of revenue
which, it is assumed, would result
from raising the license fee and the
consequent reduction of the number
of saloOns.-Union.
The Union characterizes the above
as an absurd statement, and says
,795 represents the total excise
revenue of Deerpark for 1892; and
asks if Mr.. Carley means that none
of the hotel or saloon n-keepers of the
town could afford to pay the license
fee of 5000 provided for by the Raines
bill. The Raines law provides that
one-half of the excise fund shall go
to the state and the other half to the
locality.
The Brooks law in Pennsylvania
fixes the license fee at $3.50 in
boroughs of which sum 800 is paid
in the borough treasury Cities
pay larger sum in proportion, and
while the number of saloons and
hotels may have been slightly de-
creased yet the revenue derived is
much greater under high than a
low license. ''-'--

ON all things that you may need to

from the fact that they do not keep

were he TO use such lax methods in
making his purchases ? One would
quickly say such a dealer was a
failure from the beginning, then
why do you use this method in a

OF IMPORTANCE TO HOTELS
Opinion of Judge Hare, Of Phila-
delphia,

He Holds That Courts Have the Power to
Impose Restrictions. And That Some
Must Take Their Licenses with Con
ditlons or Not at All
Judge Hare handed down an opin-
ion Jan. 23th, which in effect affirms
the power of the court in granting
liquor licenses to add to them stipu-
| lations as to the manner in which
the licensee shall carry on business,
and ON failure to do so, or to carry
out the order of the court to have
the license revoked. The power of
the court to do this has been n legal
problem, and no decision has been
rendered on the question, except in
the present case.
The facts are these: One Gerst
lauer, who had been licensed with a
stipulation that he would close his
place at certain hour of the night,
and would not allow liquor to be
taken from his premises i'll grow
lers, disobeyed these injunctions,
and the Law and Order Society of
Philadelphia instituted proceedings
to have his license revoked. At the
hearing Gerstlauer's counsel raised
the broad point that, the court hav-
ing no authority to impose restric-
tions in granting licenses, cannot
revoke them on failure by the il
censee to carry them out Judge
Hare in Il long opinion reviewing
the facts and the law, holds that the
court has the power He says :
'There are other cases when the
question depends on circumstances
and should be left to the Judgment
of the court on the facts as given in
evidence.
Liquor taken to disorderly houses,
or even to the homes of working
men and women in any form, and
especially in kettles, gives an op-
portunity for practices which are
held in check in places open to the
public and that may be visited by
the police. The evil sometimes
takes a different shape. Boys club
their money and an acquaintance or
companion takes it to a saloon and
brings back a kettleful of beer, which
is drunk in common in an adjacent
alley or open lot. The practice be-
comes habitual and excess of drink
leads TO vice in other forms.
He says there is a gap in the pre-
sent license system which cannot be
closed by the legislature without
stopping the retail trade in liquor
and that the remedy lies in a judici-
Gus use of the powers conferred by
the courts, in adding or imposing
conditions and stipulations as to
how the business shall be con-
Quoted.

there but he made no answer, she
then warned the individual that if
he did not respond she would shoot.
Failing to do so, she fired, shot her
brother, the charge taking effect in
his right arm, which it became neces-
sary subsequently to amputate.

Miss Estey Hornbeck, daughter of
the late James Horn beck, of Monta-
que, who is teaching her third term
in Union school district, in Sandys-
ton, was summarily dismissed by
the Board of Education down there
at their meeting, on Saturday, Jan
uary 18th, at Centreville. The
Boards action may have been just,
but their actlt n is severely criticised
in this town.. any way. The legality
of the conduct of the meeting is also
questioned by some, and without
doubt the case will go to Superin-
tendent Hill for a final decision. If
one teacher can be discharged ON
children's s evidence, for not keeping
order, it behooves the teachers to
keep their eyes open before more
heads drop into the basket. Fact,
honest fact, my boy yet we feel sorry
for Miss Hornbeck in Montague

If the account of the meeting of
the board, the methods employed,
and the general conduct of its
members is correctly reported by
Henry Ludwig in the Gazette, it
would seem to the average reader
that Board of Education in Sandy
ston is sadly in need of some instruc-
ton in the rudiments of a business
