 TAME TERMiNATION.

Before the United States Court Commissioner F. J Duffy, Tuesday afternoon, there was developed de- cided sensation.
 It was the case of the United States ys. Frank Irvine, accused of snug gling. Irvine is barkeeper for J. T. Brickwood whose place of business. as it is well known stands on the Inter- national boundary with the cutter wall abog' Fg9 feet over in Mexico. Out side adI in Mexico. is long case reaching fromfhe sidewalk toa height of about eight feet. Inside of that ease .shalvsaon whieh are kept. Mexican cigars. Whenever custom CT wants a cigar he is served at this case outside. The transaction is then made in Mexico. and the United States can have no right, aor claim to duty thereon.
 On the 2nd inst, Mir. John Henry went into MT. Brickwood's and called for one dozen cigars. Irvine, who was then on watch, took him outside the door, into Mexico, opened the case. took out the box of cigars, from which he counted out 8 dozen, and sold to MT. Henry. The latter asked to have them wrapped up for him. Thoughtlessly Irvine stepped into the saloon with the box Of cigars in one hand and the dozen loose cigars in the other. Lylug the box down on the bar irvine got piece of paper, wrapped the cigars sold Henry, who took them and left. Technically he had violated the law, but the intent to dc so, necessary to complete the alleged crime was absent. Irvine was about to return the box of cigars partly filed to the case outside, when two customers in hurry, step ped up to the bar and demanded i'm mediate attention. Irvine proceeded to walton them, and immediately Ins- pector Hannah bounced down on the box of cigars took them to Collector Chenoweth who instructed him to ar- rest Irvine, so Hannah returned and informed Irvine that he was under arrest for smuggling. He was taken before Court Commissioner Duffy, and the case was continued until Tuesday afternoon, toadmit the send ing for United States Attorney, that superfluous official wide the Vidette) seeming now very necessary
 Tuesday sternoon the case was called before Commissioner Duffy, Colonel Willis P. Harlow appearing Tor the defendant, and Assistant U. S' District Attorney Alfred Franklin or Phoenix, for the government.
 Customs Inspector Robert Hannah was first placed on the stand, and testified to seeing Irvine take the box

erty. In his close crOss-examlnatiOn Colonel Harlow got the two officials well rattled, and finally forced them to an admission that they could not testify positively that the cigar box in the case was the one before tue court.
 At one point in the proceedings Mr. Duckworth attempted to coach the United States attorney in a whisper so audible that he was heard all over the room. For Gods sake Duckworth.n calculated Colonel Har- low, "keep still, no matter how pain ful 1t might be to you: you have nothing to do with this case, so keep still"
 In summing up Colonel Harlow argued that the intent to commit a crime was absent in the defendant. Going inte-the evidence of Collector Chenoweth and Inspector Hannah, he took the sworn admissions of the two officials that they had brought cigars across the line without payment of duty and branded them as greater criminals that the defendant in that they had brought contrabaDd goods across the line with the full intent of defrauding the government of tbe duty thereon, while the defendant lad .ia si not iot ;iiofie so. lie again roasted Chenoweth for venting h.s per soual and political spite upon Air.. Bfickwood using his high official station to do 50. He htly described him as ''the great collector of customs s-9 tieii tic ifiaSSiVU uUiiiC uT thought, who goes around the streets of No gales swelled like a toad, and would look over the head of Jesus Christ if he was in front of bim."
 The attorney representing the gov ernment made a feeble plea, and the case was taken under adyisement by the court-untilflve o'clock.
 At the appointed time the commis- sioner's court again convened and the commissioner announced that he would bind over the accused to appear before the United States grand jury in the penal sum of three hundred dollars. Colonel Harlow gave cash bail, and the defendant was released.
 Then the fun began, Colonel liar low asked for warrant for the arrest of Collector Chenoweth upon his own sworn admission that he had himself smuggled cigars. The colonel was really in earnest and offered to swear to the warrant. Commissioner Duffy was at first inclined to issue the war rant, but United States Attorney Franklin advised him not to do so. Then the commissioner refused Col onel Harlow's application, alleging that "under the advice of his superior official, the United States attorney, he could not issue the warrant" Col onel Harlow then proceeded, to read the court lecture for asserting in- feriority to an attorney therein.
 At this juncture Dr. Chenoweth, who had nothing whatever to do with the case, came in and took part, cast ing upon Colonel Harlow vile and OpDrObriduS enithef. The pantlen,an n assailed said:
 Doctor you have the best of me; you are armed, while l am barehand- ed, but wait about two seconds and 1 will return" whereupon the Colonel went hurrledly to his office, presum- ably to arm himself, and returned in less than half a minute, but the doctor had been hustled off out of sight by his friends.

animation NIT. Hannah admitted tndt he had himself bought cigars on the Mexican side Of the International boundary and brought them over without paying duty.
 Mr. Fred Heyne was the second witness, and he testified seeing the seizure made. On cross examination he admitted to having bought cigars on the Sonora side and brought them over without payment of duty.
 The third witness was Mr. John A. Henry, who testified to having gone into the saloon on the date mention- ed and asked Irvine for dozen cigars. The later had taken the key Go the case, gone outside, taken out Of the case a partly filled box of cigars from which he had taken the dozen purchased He then went inside the saloon, wrapped in piece of paper the cigars purchased, which he Henry took and went to the train.
 The fourth witness examined was tbe.cellector Hon. II. K. Chenoweth. himself. who testified that the cigars siezed had not paid duty, On cross examination the honorable collector admitted that he too, had bought cigars on the other side of the line and brought then over without pay
  ment 0f duty.
 The prosecution then rested and Colonel Harlow, defendants attorBey, moved 10 dismiss the case, on tre ground that the prosecution had in no way produced any evidence thaa Jiic cigars iu tine case were cOntraband, nor had they produced the siezed cigars in court. In his argument in support of his motion Colonel Har- low gave the collector of customs a most elegant roast, charging that the prosecution was piece of political spitework against Mir. Brickwood for having run counter to Chenoweths asplration's.
 The motion to dismiss was over- ruled and the case continued to admit of testimony for the defence.
 Mir. J. T. Brickwood was put upon the stand and testified that his in- struction to barkeepers is to never bring cigars into the house, onto the American side of the line, for deliv- cry
 The defendant was placed on the stand and he testified that in the rush and hurry of business he had thoughtlessly brought the box of cigars and the cigars he had delivered Henry onto the American side of the line to the interior of the saloon, where he had delivered to MT. Henry the cigars the latter had purchased. There was no intention on his part to defraud the revenue aud he was in no way beneficiary by the sale.
 The defence rested, and then the prosecution sought to introduce the siezed box of cigars which had been sent for. Colonel Harlow interposed an objection, claiming that the box should have been introduced in the examination in chief. The prosecu- tion claimed that the procedure was redirect examination, which was l f n t-l q Al allegation the box was admitted. But neither Collector Chenoweth nor h. spector Hannah could swear positively that the cigar box in court was the box which Hannah siezed. Hannah had takeuit to the custom house laid it on Che4oweths desk and gone away to find the collector who was not there. C'henoweth had afterward

THE MYSTERY OF SLEEP.

There is remarkable fact connected
with sleep which must not be overlooked
The sleep Of a human being, If we are
not too busy to attend to the matter,
always evokes a certain feeling of ave-
Go into a room where a person is sleep
ing, and it is difficult to resist the sense
that one is in the presence Of the central
mystery of existence. People who re-
member how constantly they see old
Jones asleep in the club library will
smile at this; but look quietly and alone
at even old Jones, and the sense Of
mystery will soon develop. 1t is no good
to say that sleep is only moving be-
cause it looks like death. The person
who is breathing so loudly as to take
away all thought of death causes the
sense Of awe quite as easily as the silent
sleeper, who hardly seems to breathe.
We see death seldom, but were it more
familiar we doubt If corpse would in
spire 50 much awe as the unconscious
and sleeping figure-a smiling, irrespon-
sible doll Of flesh and blood, but a doll
to whom in second may be recalled a
proud, active, controlling consciousness
which will ride his bodily and his
mental horse with a hand of iron, which
will force that body to endure toll and
misery, and will make that mind, now
wandering in paths of fantastic folly,
grapple with some great problem, or
throw all its force into the ruling, the
saving, or the destruction of mankind.
The corpse Is only so much bone, muscle
and tissue. The sleeping body is the
house which quick and eager master
has only left for an hour or so. Let any
one who thinks sleep Is no mystery,
try to observe in himself the process by
which sleep comes, and to notice how
and when and under what conditions he
loses consciousness. He will, of course
utterly fail to put his finger on the
moment OF sleep coming, but In striving
to get as close as he can to the phenom-
ena of sleep, he will realize how great
is the mystery which he is trying to
fathom.-London Spectator.
