THE PRINTER.

Everybody looks after the printer.
If newspaper man goes into Il store.
he buys his goods like others. When
he wants q new shirt he does not go
from store to store and take bids. If
he gets doctor or a lawyer he pays
their bills. He never thinks of ask
ing the grocer to put in another pound
of sugar for dollar. When he gets
shaved out goes fifteen cents. If he
buys n cord of wood or bushel of
potatoes he knows he ought TO pay
little more than the market price.
When couple gets married or
there is a church festival he cheerful
Iy gives Il couple of dollars worth of
notices free: but when there is fifty
cent job of printing. the printer is
asked to bid. After going the rounds
and getting the price down below liv-
ing rates. he gets the job, providing
he donates ten per cent. These are
facts. and there is nothing remArka-
BILE about it only that the printers are
such blooming fools as to allow it.

the big league, dwelling upon the i'm
portance in the prompt discharge of
their duties and urging them to follow
the rules to the letter. 1t contains
some good advice, and a careful peru

Sacramento, CAL, June 7.-Warden
Aull, OF Folsom prison, telephoped this
evening that he had received a tele-
graphic message from the attorney
general, advising him nor to proceed
with the hanging Of Worden. Worden
had been found guilty of trainwrecking.
The attorney general said that his
written opinion would reach Folsom
tomorrow by mail. Acting upon this
advice, the execution will not take place
as intended. Warden Aull says that
he has notified Worden, and has had
the gallows taken down. Theslaw on-
der which Worden is permitted thus to
extend his lease Of life, the warden
says, was passed by congress during
the reconstruction days, in order to
make il possible in certain cases to
reach the federal supreme court over
the head Of the state courts in the
South. If it were matter, he says,
in which the issue did not involve hu-
man life, he would probably test its
legality, but in this case, as a state
official, he will be governed by the ac-
tion Of the encouragement. AS the
United States supreme court will not
meet until October, Worden will have
vt least several months longer on earth.
Salter Worden was delirious with
Joy when he learned this evening that
he was not to be hanged tomorrow.
At first the announcement dazed him,
and then he rose on his trembling legs
and thanked Warden Aull for the good
news. The condemned man said that,
while he was prepared TO go bravely to
the gallows, he felt all along that some.
thing would be done to save him.
The announcement OF the stay, he said,
made him more nervous than if he
would have been standing on the gal.
lows. All the preparations for his
hanging had been completed. Worden
has been returned to his cell in mur-
derers' row.

San Francisco, June 7.-While he
blesses his good fortune and section 1866
" the United States revised statutes,
Theodore Durrant may look forward
with some assurance to at least seven
more months Of life. Today, with the
end Of his life only FIVE days away, the
simple act OF an appeal to the United
States supreme court arrested the pro-
cess Of the state courts and set him far
outside the shadow OF the waiting scaf.
fold. His execution is now stayed un-
til after the supreme court Of the United
States meets again, which will not be
until next October, and passes upon
the appeal from the circuit court, which
was allowed today. Even ii the appeal
should be dismissed early in the term,
the 80 days allowed by the state law
between tbe time when the day for ex-
ecution is fixed and the day Of execu-
tion would carry the matter pretty we'll
toward the end OF the year. The possi-
bilities for further delay are 80 numer-
GUS that practically ne has an insurable
lease Of life into the new year.
The attorneys for Durrant appeared
before Judge Gilbert, in the United
States circuit court, today, and applied
for writ Of supersedeas for the pur-
pose Of staying execution Of the SEN
tence;' but this was denied. Applica
tion for leave to appeal from this de-
cision to the supreme court OF the
United States WAS then made and
granted.
No formal stay Of execution, how
ever, has been given. Attorney Gen
eral Fitzgerald has not yet advised
Warden Hale not to proceed with the
execution on the llth, but he has
given such advice to Warden Aull, of
Folsom, in the Worden case, and the
Dnrrant case stands on precisely the
same footing. Durrant's attorneys re-
gard their immediate labors on his be-
half as at an end. and are preparing for
thier pext effort, which will be before
