in which the Territory is the party on one
side and William p. Cunningham on tho
other, wherein il Is found that this is u
debt due from Mr.. Cunningham to the
territory and providing when and how it
should be paid-that is. SO n.se,e each
month. The evidence further shows that,
in pursuance Of this decree, the money y
has been paid from time to time as
adjudged ana decreed There is nov $1l0
owing upon it, which by the terms of this
decree, is not due at this time.
1t therefore appears that the defendant
is not Indebted either to the county or
the territory for amounts collected by
him as collector, anc that he has not vio-
lated that provision Of the statute which
authorizes the governor "to vacate the
commissions of all defautng tax ccllec-
tors, or receivers, or Of any
other persons in whose hands public
moneys shall come who shall fail to do their
duty in any respect ns prescrlbedby by law"
I feel it my dnty to say that have
reached this conclusion with regret, for
from my own knowledge, and from infor-
nation which have received, ar we'll
satisfied that the sheriff does not perform
his official duties in such & manner as to
reiect credit upon the office which he oc-
cupies, and that in several instances he
has committed acts of official oppression
sufficient to justify hls removal had
tho authority to do so, but there is no
way of renchirg this class of misconduct

THE POPES PRIT4 TIE APART
IUENTS

TO the Pope's bedroom only his pr
vate valet and his secretaries have ac-
cess. 1t is of small dimensions, and
contains only a he'd, in an alcove
adorned with graceful marble columns,
writing table, an arm. char, and
kneeling- stool, and one wardrobe.
Beside these, there is his private
study, in which the table aud chair
stand upon little carpeted platform,
other tables being placed on each side
upon the floor, together with an ex-
tremely uncomfortable, but magniti-
cent straight backed armchair, which
is one of the gifts offered on the oc-
casion OF the episcopal jubilee. There
is, moreover, little room containing
only an old lounge: and an old-fashon
ed easy-chair, with ''wngs," and
nothing else. 1t is here that the Holy
Father retlres to take his afternoon
nap, and the robust nature Of his
nerves is proved by the fact that he
lies down with his eyes facing the
broad light of the window.
This private apartment occupies the
second floor, according to Italian rec>
oning, though we Americans should
call it the third; 1t is on Il level Wiz,
Raphael's loggie. The floor above il

4 Special invitation.

Come people, come, and hear Rev.
W. W. Jones this evening,
April Sth, on his popular lecture "Trav-
els in the Holy Lands and the Cause
of the Rise and Fall of Dead Empires" !"
You cannot afford to miss this most in
structive and interesting lecture. Mr.
Jones has been preaching here for one
week and will stay longer if the interest
of the meetings demand it, and all he
expects for his labor of love for God
and the good for humanity, is for us to
give him a good hearing Wednesday
evening. We can well afford to do this
as it will cost but 20 cents each, child
rem 10 cents. Who would not give that
much to hear Brother Jones for the
good he has already done in the revival
meetings. Tickets for sale at Ryan *

II VIII BE Felt.

We complacently listen to the va
porings of some of the BRILLIANTLY pol
iticians in our beautiful city, who IN
their minute mental ability see nothing
but rank partisanship, and who have in
a large number of instances twittered
about the position occupied by the In
DEPENDENT along political lines. The
INDEPENDENT does not worry about
these little things; they merely remind
us of the great big buzzing noise made
by the persistent horse fly.
The time is not far distant when the
independent policy mapped ont by this
paper will clearly be seen in its action.
That class of republicans and demo-
Gratis who are doing so much talking
regarding the INDEPENDENT not hav-
ing any influence, will discover at no
great distant day that they have, as the
saying goes: "Been talking through
their hats

Marriage of the Dead.

A strange custom prevails among
certain tribe in the Caucasus. When
a single young man dies, some one calls
upon the bereaved parents who have
carried to the grave marriageable
daughter in the course of the year, and
says:
your son is sure to want wife;
I'll give you my daughter and you shall
deliver to me the marriage portion in
return"
A friendly offer of this description is
never rejected, and the two parties soon
come to terms as to the amount OF the
dowry. which varies according to the
advantages possessed by the girl in her
lifetime. Cases have been known where
the young mans father has given as
much as thirty cows to secure a dead
wife for his dead son.-ES.

W aiting.

Few words IN the English language
have so great significance as the word
watl G, and few whose significance IS
so universally felt. 1t touches the
loftiest intellect, aud is fell no less by
the humblest and most ignorant. Life
is made up of waiting. We wait with
tired brain and weary body for the fall
ing of the shades Of night which shut
out the turmoil of the day and wrap
the world III peaceful slumberS. Watch
ing by the sick bed of friend
racked by suffering we wait for the
rosy dawn that shall dispel the shadows
that grow more weird as the night
wanes. We wait for tidlngs from our
absent ones; we wait for their return,
sending far out our anxious gaze to
catch the first glimpse of their familiar
faces. We wait for the development Of
infancy into intelligent childhood, and
We wait for the frultlOn of our hopes
in the perfect manhood or wOmanhood
of the child we nurtured IN our bosom.
We wait for success in our undertak-
ings. We wait while the wheel of time
slowly and surely turning brings us
the good we have striven for.
