Durrant Awaiting Final Action by the
Supreme Court.
SAN FRANcIsCo, March 9.-On April 6
next year will have passed since the
murder OF Blanche Lamont, and yet
Theodore Durrant, who was convicted of
her murder last November, is still In the
county Jail waiting the finale of the state
supreme court in the case. Immediately
after Durrant's conviction an appeal
was taken, but the case has not been
presented to the supreme court, owing
to requests for additional time made by
both sides.
The last postponement took place a
week ago when the prosecution was
granted twenty days in which to file
bill of exceptions. At the end of this
time it is believed the case will be pre-
sented to the supreme court, but de-
cision is not expected for several
months. Durrant was sentenced to be
hanged February 2lst, but the slow
manner in which justice is meted out to
murderers in this state make it probable

Greatest Demonstration Yet
Made in Spain.
TWELVE THOUSAND
RIOTERS
Gave Expression to the Anger Felt
Toward the United States-POlice
Were Almost Powerless.

B1LBoA, Spain, March 9.-There wa:
another anti i-American riot here today
in which about II 900 people took part
The excitement was started by some
young men at a street corner cheering
every soldier who passed. Their con-
duct was initiated by other groups.
Some musicians who refused to repeat
the national anthem were hustled and
beaten, and riotous groups formed in
the main streets denouncing the United
States.
The authorities did everything possi-
BILE to maintain order. Almost the en-
tire police force turned out, and the riot
ers were dispersed again and again.
Eventually, however, the mob became
so numerous and excited that the police
were almost helpless.
After the first demonstration of SYM
pathy with the army, the crowds armed
themselves with sticks and cudgels, the
police were swept aside, and an immense
crowd gathered on the leading thorough
fares and marched toward the residence
of the United States consul shouting.
"Long Live Spain!' "Down With the
Yankees ]"
On the way to the consul's residence
they hurled stones through the windows
of stores and private residences, over
turned vehicles, pulled several mounted
policemen from their horses, and gener-
ally behaved in the most threatening
manner. Stores dealing in American
goods received the most attention from
the mob, and the windows of the consul's
house were badly shattered although
the police defended the building. The
mob proceeded toward the United States
consulate, evidently intending to stone
that building as we'll, but the author
tiles had taken precautions to send a
strong force of police to guard it.
Another detachment was stationed
across the street leading to the consul
late, ,and when the mob neared the United
States consulate it was confronted by
police with drawn swords. The mob
halted, then began pelting the police
vigorously with stones and bricks. A
squad of gen d'armes charged the rioters,
and the latter fred pistols at the police
men, two of whom were wounded. The
police then charged in body using their
swords with good effect. The rioters
were dispersed, yelling and hooting at
the authorities, and shouting, tsDown
with the Yankees!" and "Long live
Spain !"

TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC.
The Work John L. Sullivan Proposes
to Undertake..

SAN Francisco, March 9.-John l..
Sullivan and Paraon Davies are prepar-
ing to head movement to place pugil-
ism on paying basis again. Sullivan
believes sporting men should organize
and refuse to cast their ballots for legis-
lators or congressman who would not
agree to let prize-fighters go unmolested.
"Over in England last year the sport
ing league beat 1I3 candidates for par
did not satisfy the league" said Sull'-
van. 'tWe want to ask candidates fo,'
the legislature or for congress or for the
senate what they think of boxing, horse
racing, foot races and all kinds of sport,
and if their views coincide with ours,
we will vote for them; but if they don't
we'll beat them.
"People have got bad view of box
ing. If a horse gets killed, or jockey,
the race goes on just the same; but if
two men box and one gets killed, a lot
of ministers get up and call it an out
rage. That amt fair. Boxing amt
brutal, and we are going to try to show
that it is just as legitimate as any other
sporting proclivity. If q man wants to
go to church. let him. If he wants to
go to a fight, he's got right to. We
want to educate and tone up the people
to understand boxing. OF course, if a
man doesn't want to see boxing, he don't
have to, but he's got 10 business to in
terfere with those who do. Take min
lister: his graft is to tell people how to
go to heaven. Let him stick to that.
What business has he got to interfere
with legitimate sport?'

-stabbing affray took place here early
yesterday morning in which Thomas G.
Elliott was probably fatally wounded by
]. A. Penninger. The two men had
been attending dance. which broke up
at II O'Clock, and, as Elliott stepped out
of the front entrance of the hotel, PEN
ninger put his hand on Elliott's right
shoulder and stabbed him in the breast
with dirk knife, the blade of which
was three and half inches long.
Penninger was taken to Jacksonville
last evening by Sheriff Patterson. He
is the son of David Penninger, an old
settler in this valley, and is 26 years old.
1t is claimed that he is not responsible
for his rash act, as he has been subject
to fits for several years. When seen at
the Jail, Penninger said he was struck
three times by Elliott, and then stabbed
him in self defense.

Development of Southern Fruit
Growing.

Railroad improvements in the
South during recent years have
added very materially to the
profits of the growers of fruits,
by enabling the products Of their
orchards to be forwarded to the
distributing centres of the coun-
try.
Before this era of pro sress set
in Delaware and Maryland fur~
nlshed most of the Eastern
markets with peaches, but South
west Georgia, in which this
favorite fruit attains great per
fection, is now enabled to supply
the Eastern as we'll as the West
ern markets, several weeks in
advance of the orchards located
in the Middle States. Last ear
the peach crop of Southwest
Georgia was worth several
million dollars to the fruit grow
er of that section, and re-
cent reports from that locality
indicate that the yield of peaches
will be even greater the present
year. Fast freight trains from
the points of production to the
centres Of consumption are caus-
ing millions of dollars to be an-
nually distributed in the South
for fruit Of various kinds.

TWENTY CARRIERS.
A BRIDE IN ORANGE, n. T., WORE THIS
NUMBER THAT SHE MIGHT PRESENT
EACH GIRL FRIEND WITH ONE.

1t was at a swell wedding that
recently took place in New
Jersey. The bride became the
willing martyr to the supersti>
ton that the brides and brides>
maids have delighted in for gen
erat1ons. Whoever receives the
garter that a bride has worn up-
On her wedding day, runs the
saying, shall herself become a
bride before the year goes out.
At the Orange wedding, there
tore, where there were eight
bridesmaids and dozen or more
of girlish assistants, requests for
the brides garters proved SO
many to be embarrassing. But
the bride was an original as we'll
as all obliging young woman,
who thought it would be a pity
to deny her friends so easy a
road to natrimony, and who saw
no reason why she should limit
herself to one pair of garters.
And when the wedding day
came only her chosen friends
suspected that beneath the dainty
founces of satin and silk and
lace the bride wore twenty
garters!
AS the possession of one garter
is popularity supposed 20 ensure
the desired result, the bride had
only to wear twenty garters to
satisfy her twenty friends. So
between each knee and ankle
there was succession of ten gray
ribbons and buckles that made
veritable harness. And after the
ceremony when tn e bride
changed her gown there was such
a clamoring for tile pretty trifes
that one would have thought
this distribution the most impor-
tant part Of the whole affair.
Nobody has computed the cost
of this odd fancy, but anybody
who is at all versed in the science
of garter buckles knows that
their price is not at all proper
tionate to their prominence, and
that the twenty beribboned and
bejeweled trinkets that a modern
girl might condescend to make a
feature Of her bridal toilet would
represent a pretty sum. 1t is a
hint, at least, to other brides who
wish to make themselves beloved
by their bridesmaids. There
could be no more approval
method.

Education in The South.

A New Orleans exchange
notes that while the South has
gained "a per cent. in population
during the last 20 years the ems
rollment of its school attendance
has increased I3o per cent. The
value of Southern school props
erty is also shown to have in
creased at the same time from
SIo,ooo,ooo to $5I,ooo,ooo, and
the amount expended for educa-
tional purposes in the South for
the same period foots up $780,
900, 900.
These figures speak volumes
for the educational interest of
the South, and future compila-
tions will show a still greater ad-
vance. Twenty years of pro-
gress and enterprise makes a
great difference, and the South in
all such matters is forging ahead
at gratifying rate.
