AT THE FAIR.
What Is Going On There and what
May He Seen Tonight.

The largest attendance of the season
marked the Pythian Fair last night. and
passed charming evening, one of the
prettiest features of which was the flag

young ladies. lovely In white costumes,
set off by the National colors. They were
under the command of Capt. Andrew

Another unique and popular attraction
was "The Original Thauma." the half

IN vIReINrA's HIGHEST COURT.
Opinions Rendered. in Many Impor.
tRnt Cnscs-Mnunin Law Not Henrd

Richmond. Va, April 23.--The Court
Of Appeals did not to-day, as expected,
hand down an opinion in the Lacey case,
involving the constitutlonality of the
Maupin law
There was one railroad case-Norfolk
and Western vs.. Amprey. from the Cor
poration Court of Petersburg. Opinion
by Judge Rely. affirmed In this case
the brakeman was on double duty. He
attempted to make coupling at Peters
burg, using stick for that purpose,
but the cars had been in a wreck, and
the block heads were so badly damaged
that he could not couple them. The con-
ductor told him to use his hand and
that there would be no danger If the
train backed slowly. The conductor
gave the signal to back and the train
came back with such speed that the
brakeman's hand was caught and so bad
ly mashed that the arm had TO be am
putated. 1t was sought to make II ap-
pear that this Injury was the result
of negligence on the part of a fellow
servant, but the court holds that the
real cause of the accident was defective
coupling appliances. and and the negl-
gence Of the conductor does not operate
to relieve or diminish the liability Of the
company.

THE PEARL bryan MURDER CASE.
Two Prominent Physicians Agree thar
the Girl Was Decapitated Alive,

Cincinnati. April 2S.-In the Jackson
trial this morning the defense began a
fight against the testimony of Mayor
Caldwell. of Cincinnati. Colonel Craw-
ford made motion that part of the
testimony which referred to Walling be
ruled off.
Judge Holiness said that unfortunate
legislation had entangled the Kentucky
law upon the testimony which joint de-
PENDANTS may offer. The court held that
anything Walling has said which Jack
son denies cannot be admitted as eva-
dence: that 1t would be necessary fo.
Walling to make his statements on the
witness stand and under oath II they
are to weigh against Jackson. This was
regarded as the first victory for the de-
fense.
The forenoon was consumed in expert
testimony. DIR. Fishback contradicted
Dr. jenkins on several technical points
regarding coagulation of blood.
The two physicians, although differ
Ing in technical points regarding coagu-
lation. are agreed that Pearl Bryan was
beheaded while she was yet alive. DR..
jenkins claimed that had she been dead
when she was decap.tated. the blood
would not have been so completely
drained from the body. DIR. Fishback
said that the blood on the privet bushes
could only have spurted from a live
body.
