Origin of Druggists show Bottles


 An interesting story is told bl the Chicago Grocer in connrcli"n with the familiar red, yellow and green vases that brighten the windows of drug stores. The custom of placing them there originated with an apnthe cary who found himself one night minus the red light with winch trades men of his class were accustomed tn ornament their store fronts. To make up the deficiency he got bottle of red liquid and placed q cauoe behind it. The effect pleased him SD well that he decided lo improve it by placing a second red light ih the window, with the aid of another bottle of rcd mixture and an addi- tiona candle. This sign made such a brave showing that an envious rival cast about for means of improving on the sign. Ii" hit upon the scheme of placing bottle colored with yellow fluid beside ihp red one. and then sur passed his previous effort and carried all before him by placing a green bottle beside the yellow. The three made a sign that caught the town, and all druggists quickly fell into line. The butlles were replaced with the hands' me Nasts al present in use, and tle dIugsisl's sign were here to stay to brighten the dingy streets of town and village.

MCKINLEY AND THE PRESS.
Newspaper Correspondents Given a
Reception at the White House.

WASHINGTON, March 23.-Presi-
dent Mckinley to-day gave a reception
to the newspaper correspondents sta
toned in Washington and the repre-
sentatives of the local press. Although
it was a busy day in Congress, at least
130 representatives of the leading news
papers of the country had gathered in
the east room when the President en-
tered at 3 o'clock. His cordial greeting
of his old acquaintance was a pleasant
feature of the reception.
The correspondents were introduced
by Mr. Bunnell, the Chairman of the
standing committee of correspondents,
and at the conclusion of the handshak-
ing the President mingled freely with
his callers, and again expressed his
pleasure on meeting the correspondents
of Washington, whom he had so pleas
antly known in the years gone by.
Soon after the correspondents retired
the Government Board of Managers Of
the National Home for Disabled Volun-
teer Soldiers were presented to the
President, and these were followed by a
California delegation of Chinese, repre-
senting the See Yup Society.

All the Members of the Family to be
Present at the Exercises, Which
Take Place on April 27th.

NEW YORK, March 23.-At a meet
ing of the Military Committee of the
Grant monument ceremonies a letter
was read from Mrs. U. s. Grant giving
thanks for the honor conferred upon
the memory of her husband, and stat
ing that while her family was scattered
at the present time, some members be-
ing in California and others in Europe,
she would endeavor TO have them all
present on April 9th. the day of the
monument ceremonies.
Secretary of War Alger wrote that it
was his intention to have as much of a
force as possible to take part in the pa
rade.
Applications for places in the parade
were received from the Corcoran Ca
diets of Washington, d. c., the Cadet
Corps of Girard College of Philadel-

The troops of the Third and Fourth
Brigades, with headquarters at Albany

their services, and Adjutant- General
Tillinghast and Colonel William Cary
Sander have asked the Finance Com
mittee of the Senate for an appropria-
tion of S50, 600 to cover the expenses of
the two brigades. AT a special meeting
of the Board of Education it was re-
solved on motion of Commissioner
Taft, to accede to Mayor Strong's re-
quest and ask the principals of all the
higher grade grammar schools and the
schoolship ST. Mary's to select children
from their schools to take part in the
ceremonies. 1t was resolved to pro-
vide special music from the children.
Commissioner Taft said that a repre-
sentation of from sixteen to twenty
from each grammar school of the
higher grades would make altogether a
quota of about 1000 children. and he
believed that the marching of those
children would form one of the pret-
tiest sights of the whole parade.

THEODORE DURRANq.
PAPERS FOR REHEARING FILED
IN THE SUPREnE COURT.
A Contention That the Condemned
Man Was Not Given
Fair Trial.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 23.-The
petition of w. II. T. Durrant, now
awaiting execution for the murder of
Blanche Lamont, TO the Supreme Court
fer rehearing of his lately-denied ap-
plication for a new trial, was filed early
this afternoon. 1t is not a lengthy doc
ument, and opens with a paragraph
averring that the court has erred in
dealing with the propositions set forth
III the brief formerly filed in behalf of
the petitioner. An attack is then
made on the manner in which the Dur
rant jury was impaneled, various ir-
reguarities being alleged.
OF the talesmen summoned, it is set
forth that fourteen were non-residents,
twelve not citizens, twelve unable to
understand English, while various 9TH
ers We're deaf. etc.
We still insist that the defendant
did not have the privileges given to him
by the Sixth Amendment of the Consti-
tuition of the United States, in having
an impartial jury of the State and Dis
trict wherein the crime was claimed to
have been committed"
The press is thus referred to in the
petition:
The defendant begged that his priv
ieges for a fair and impartial trial
should be granted him, and that the
criticisms and publications of the pa
pers be held in check by the orders of
| the court His supplications through
the motions of his counsel to the court
were met only by deaf ear His mo-
ticn to have those who were guilty of
invading his rights punished were de-
MED not once but many times. and the
application in this respect even at this
day stands undetermined Can this
honorable tribunal say under all these
circumstances that the appellant crying
out his innocence, has been tried by
due process of law? There is but one
answer-No."
No intimation has yet been given as
to when decision on the petition will
be given.

MURDERERS REPRIEVED.
STAY OF TEN DAYS in THE EX-

President Mckinley Gives the Bor-

Another Chance.

SANTA FEE On. Nj, March 23-The
preparations for the hanging of Fran
cisco Borrego, Antonio Borrego, Luari-
ano Alarid and Patrico Valencia were
complete this morning. A troop of
cavalry and a company of infantry
were ordered to guard the prisoners
from the penitentiary to the Jail where
the gallowS were erected. The exceu-
ton was to have been private, only
twenty four persons being present
AS the prisoners started from the
penitentiary, which is about a mile
from town, Governor Thornton received
dispatch from the Attorney General
stating that the President had granted
reprieve of ten days in order to look
more fully into the case Press of
business at Washington prevented
the full consideration that the gravity
of the case demanded.
Governor Thornton Immediately dis
patched messenger to Sheriff Kinsell.
and the prisoners were taken into the
County Jail under escort, the Warden
of the penitentiary refusing to receive
the prisoners again.
The message from Washington was
as follows:
IO the honorable w. L. Thorn
ton, Governor of New Mexico: The
President reprieves the defendants in
the Borrego case for ten days to have
the question of Jurisdiction settled. He
requests you to do likewise. This re-
prieve is made necessary only by the
press of business which has prevented
that consideration that the President
deems necessary in view of it's gravity.
Answer Immediately,
JOSEPH M'KENNA,
Attorney General
The Governor at once issued a. re-
prieve, making the day of execution
Friday, April I'd. This makes the fourth
time the execution of the prisoners in
this celebrated case has been delayed,
and there seems to be some ground for
the belief that the sentence of the law
will never be carried out.
Frank Borrego, the principal charac-
ter in the tragedy, says he dreamed last
night that reprieve would reach them
just before the execution. Rumors are
rife that a Governor more friendly to
the prisoners will be appointed before
the reprieye expires.
