Far to the South" said Mr. BENJAMIN
F. Kirk at the Regent yesterday. amid
wilderness OF magnolias, giant pines.
palmettGs, and jessamine vines, there is a
pretty little town in Florida by the name
OF Trilby. 1t was founded by Mr.. Henry
B. Plant. the millionaire railroader, and
holding its site at the crossing point Of
two railways, the little village is fast
growing into the proportions of pre-
teEtious town; and, strangely enough, its
prosperity dates back no further than when
1t was given the name OF Trilby. The rail-
road station at this point was formerly
known as Macon. There was nothing OF
a town so long as 1t went by that name. 1t
became necessary for the railroad authOrt
ties TO cut down the grade at Macon, ami
when this s'as done the little station was
left staading on a cliff like a lighthouse
it was or no use in this position. and Mr..
Plant gave orders for il to he torn down
and the timber taken To point close by
where two railroads crossed. Then the
question arose: What shall the new station
he called? At that time the popularity
OF Du Maurifr's book amounted to a craze
and President Plant was deeply interested
ia its second reading. So 1t happened that
when one OF his officials came TO Mr..
Plant anA asked what the new station
should he named, he answered. 'TriIby.'
THAT vas enough. TriIby began to
grow at once. Real estate agents took
hold, winter tourists craned their necks
TO see it,, newspaper writers wrote OF It,
and the nap of Florida held out its name
nspicuously. The streets and avenues
are named after the characters in the
book, and under such environment, the
little town OF TriIby bids fair to become an
important point some day

COMMENTING upon the failure of
the jury to agree in the now famous
Wintersteen case, at Bloomsbury, the
Wilkesbarre Record says THE
principal weakness of the prosecution
was the disreputable character of the
leading witnesses. While the evi-
dence of Kuorr was confirmed by
reputable people i'm some respects
and not really shown to be false in
any particular, by his own admission
he is such an utterly hopeless villain
that jury could not be expected to
give his evidence full weight 1t.
seems to MS that it would be short
sighted for the prosecution to press
for another trial unless they are able
to procure new and stronger evidence
against Wintersteen, such as will
connect him with Knorr in the re
voting crime to which the latter
confesses Knorr's evidence was
apparently not accepted by the jury,
and probably would not be by twelve
other men. What the prosecution
lacked was evidence apart from
Kuorr's to connect Wiutersteen with
the dynamite conspiracy. That ac-
counts, i'm our opinion, for the failure
of the jury to agree And adds that
the Scotch verdict of mot proven"
would have been very appropriate in
this case

TIE SUGAR SCHEDULE,

Another Day of Discussion on tho
Question of Bounty.
washington, June 15.-The senate de-
bate on the sugar schedule of the tariff
bill proceeded yesterday with only one
tiverting incident to relieve the mono
tony into which the discussion has
lapsed. This was the sharp exchange
between Mr.. HOnr, of Massachusetts,
and Mr., Tillman, of South Carolina,
Mr., Tlllman again referred to pub
lished charges Of trregulanty in con-
nectiOn with the sugar schedule, and
asserted that the senate would stand
convicted before the American people
II 1t failed to investigate the charges.
Mr.. Hoar calmly and lmpressively re-
PEELED this statement, his tone and
language being calculated as a rebuke.
He declared that the vague charges of
irregularity We're not only preposter-
Gus, but infamous. Mr.. Tnlman re-
iterated that senators would stand con-
victed by the people if they sought to
hide behind the senatorial toga-
Mr.. Allison, in charge of the bill.
made another speech in defense of the
schedule presenting tables which he
declared proved that the sugar refn-
ers received less protection under the
senate schedule than under the exist
ing law. Mr. Pettigrew, Of South Da-
kota, spoke at length in favor Of his
amendment to place on the free list
articles controlled by trusts, severely
arraigning the various large trusts.
Mr., Allen, of Nebraska, urged legal
procedure against the trusts. Only one
roll call occurred during the day on
Mr.. Lindsay's amendment to place an
sugars on the free basis. This was re-
iected, % to 49, Mr.. McEnery, Of
Louisiana, voting with the Republicans
In the mega i've and Senators Pettigrew

Alien Paupers.

The report of the committee to in
vestigate the number aliens quar-
tered upon the state was presented to
the Legislature last night by Chair
man Focht. The committee has been
actively engaged for eighteen months
in gathering information on this sub
iect. This is one of the few investigat
ing committees created by the Legis-
lature that is likely to be productive
of much good, and at cost of only
81, 5000. The patriotic societies CO.
operated with the committee i'm its
exhaustive inquiry and were of great
help. These organizations were repre-
scented on the committee by Clarence
II. Huth, of Shamokin, former State
President of the Patriotic Order Sons
of America, and d. r. Smith, of
Laurelton.
