Still another murderer. one con-
demned to be hanged to-day, has Sc
cured a reprieve by taking an appeal
to the Supreme Court of the United
States. If it is the law that appeal
lies in these cases. then there is Moth
ing for it but TO amend the law and
trip up the heels of the legal brethren
who have at this late day discovered
this new method of delaying the exc
cution of the laws of the State. If a
Federal question is involved in any Of
these criminal cases, it is right and
proper that it should go for final deter
mination to the Federal court of last
resort. But it should not be written
into our statutes that the mere state
ment on application for stay, that a
Federal question is involved, is sutii-
cient to stay the proceedings 1t is
simply unthinkable that all the mur-
der cases tried in all the States are to
be taken up to the Supreme Court Of
the United States, whether or not. Yet
the practice just inaugurated means
that every case may be and will be
taken up, just as have been those now
encumbering the calendar of the Su-

AssAILING THE COURTS.

There comes up, as was expected, a
howl from the disappointed in San
Francisco over the decision of the Su-
preme Court that an appeal from the
judgment of the Superior Court remov-
ing the Board of Supervisors stayed the
execution of the judgment, and there
fore left the old board in office pending
the appeal.
1t would seem that such interpreta-
ton of the law ought to be clear to
the commonest intelligence as being the
essence of reason. If the appeal did
not operate as a stay, then there might
be no use taking an appeal at all, since
there are many cases in which justice
would be wholly defeated and human
rights subverted beyond remedy if an
appeal did not stay the execution Of
the judgment.
But in spite of this plain proposition,
we have public journal of the metrop-
oils declaring that the forms of the law
have been engaged in defeating justice
these 1000 years in all lands and
among all peoples. So it goes. The
people erect constitutions, enact laws,
establish courts to construe them in
cases of issue taken as to their mean
ing and purpose. But certain influ-
ences are determined to infame the
public mind against the law and the
courts whenever the laws and the in
depreciation Of them do not fit in with
their ideas of what should or should
not be the rule of action.
These influences do not stand at as
sault and defamation when they serve
their purpose We do not believe that
such agencies will, however, succeed in
achieving their ends, namely. substi-
tuting their preconceived ideas and rev.
olutionary plans for the laws of the
people and the tribunals chosen under
them The judgment of the American
people comes around right, sooner or
later. It is not nearly so much influ-
enced by these shoutings against our
judicial systems as at first may be
thought
The cry, Stab the law" has been
kept up by the anarchists these forty
years. but nothing more has come of
it than an occasional murder and the
swift punishment Of the assassin There
is very little distinction between the
Haymarket anarchist with his red flag
and his war cry, stab the. law" and
the preaching of the sensational press
that laws and the courts have in all
time been engaged in subserverting
justice, and are therefore to be con-
demned.
The regret may be entertained that
in the one case there is possibility of
punishment being inflicted for the Of
fense, while in the other the assailants
of the judiciary go scot free, and un-
der the liberty of criticism may con-
tinue in the effort to undermine the
judicial system and substitute for it the
dictation of irresponsible Journalism
and its crude ideas of what the law is

NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY
A Positive Cure for Dyspepsia.

a Positive cure Tor Dyspepsia.
This may read as though we were
putting it a little strong because it
is generally thought by the majority
of people that Dyspepsia in its chronic
form is incura BILE, or practically So But
we have long since shown that Dys
pepsia is durable, nor is 1T such a diff
cult matter as at first appears.
The trouble with Dyspeptics is that
they are continually dieting, starving
themselves, or going to opposite ex-
tremes or else deluging the already
over burdened stomach with "bitters, +"
after dinner pills. ETC., which invari
ably increase the difficulty even if in
some cases they do give a slight tenn
porary relief. Such treatment of the
stomach simply makes matters worse.
What the stomach wants is a rest. Now
how can the stomach become rested,
recuperated and at the same time the
body nourished and sustained.
This is the great secret and this is
also the secret of the uniform success
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. This
is comparatively new remedy, but its
success and popularity leaves no doubt
as to its merits.
The Tablets win digest the food any
way, regardless of condition Of stom-
ach.
The sufferer from Dyspepsia accord
ing to directions is to eat an abundance
of good, wholesome food and use the
tablets before and after each meal and
the result will be that the food will be
digested no matter how bad your dys-
pepsia may be, because as before stat
ed, the tablets will digest the food even
if the stomach is wholly inactive. To
illustrate our meaning plainly, if you
take 800 grains of meat, eggs or ordi
nary food and place it in tempera-
ture of So degrees, and put with it one
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets it will
digest the meat or eggs almost as per-
fectly as If the meat was enclosed with
in the stomach.
The stomach may be ever so weak
yet these tablets will perform the work
of digestion and the body and brain
will be properly nourished and at the
same time a radical, lasting cure of
dyspepsia will be made because the
much abused stomach will be given,
to some extent much needed rest.
Your druggist viii tell you that of the
many remedies advertised 70 cure dys-
pepsia none of them has given so COM
plete and general satisfaction as
Stuart's. Dyspepsia Tablets and not
least in Importance in these hard times
is the fact that they are also the cheap
est and give the most good for the least
money.

JAPANESE VANITY.

A leading Japanese journal has been
ed lesson. It tells them that their van
ity is extensively inflated. That it is
well enough to be proud of japanese
progress, but by what standard has II
made way? Is it judged of by the
earlier condition of the Japanese? If
so, then Japan has made great prog
ress. But if the general condition of
Occidental countries is considered, then
Japan is informed that she has made
very little progress.
1t is added that if Japan is advanc-
ing, the japanese must not lose sight of
the fact that other Western countries
are also all the while forging ahead,
and that she is not fairly in sight of
some of them. Then this brave jap
anese paper takes up its countrymen
without gloves, and asks them how
much advance has been made in the
intellectual condition of the people.
How much have the common people
been elevated above their earlier con-
dition? Are they not still worshiping
at the shrines of imaginary deities and
having faith in amulets and charms!
Are not the leaders of progress tainted
by superstitions and led by traditions?
Scholars and leaders of thought seem
to be content" 4" says the paper, Ito let
things take their course, to amuse
themselves composing verses, max
ing tea. collecting objects of art ana
gazing at pictures"
Finally, the Japanese are told hatly
that there must be a large access OF
earnestness and honest appreciation II
real progress is to be achieved. Evl-
dently the Japanese do not lack for
courageous critics among themselves.
That the Japanese are troubled greatly
with a swelling of the head has long
been evident 1t needs some home ap-
plication like this to reduce their van
ity.

At the National Exposition in Turin
in 1898. there is to be competition under
the stimulus of high premiums, for the
best essays and devices to prevent pre-
mature burial. 1t would seem scarcely
necessary to stimulate science to such
an end, but the medical authorities ap-
prove of the prizes offered, and suggest
lively effort to stimulate the proposed
competition. Our Consul, writing from
Turin to the State Department, says
that up to this date no infallible test
for distinguishing real from apparent
death has been discovered. In conse-
quence of this fact a great many pre-
mature burials are reported annually.
A committee of physicians and surgeons
has been composed by the exposition
authorities, who will be aided by num-
Der of laymen, who will pass upon the
ESSAYS and devices, and make a report
that will. it is believed be of high value.
This committee, or commission, has al
ready appealed to the Governments OF
the world to give publicity to the sub
iect, and render all possible aid in the
research about to be undertaken. We
understand that the Government of the
United States has promised to render
all possible assistance. and doubtless
the same response will be had from all

The dispatches say that the Spanish
volunteers are marching riotously
through the streets of Havana, shout
ing Death to the United States and
long life to Weyler." 1t is added that
fear has caused merchants to put up
their shutters, and that the lives and
property of Americans in Havana are
in danger from the fury of the friends
of Weyler and the enemies of the Gu
bans. Even the American Consulate,
it is feared, will be attacked. This
news is probably exaggerated, but the
stories warrant the dispatch Of an
American man-of-war to Havana. In
fact, there is no good reason why a
ship Of our navy should not have been
kept there all along. Indeed, it is not
understood by the people why common
prudence has not moved the Washing

Of the Westinghouse Electric Company
against the Baltimore and Gainesville Con-

company to be solvent, and directing the
receivers, Messrs Bond, Hambleton and
Reed. to turn over the assets to IT, is un-
derstood to be a step preliminary to the
early completion of the Columbia and
Maryland railroad between here and Balti-
mere. Nd. The Baltimore and Gainesville
Construction Company. it will be recalled
was engaged in the construction of the
road when, several months ago, the con-
stIuction company was placed in the hands
or receivers because Of its then insolvency.
Several weeks ago the circuit court of
baltimore signed order declaring the
Baltimore and Gainesville Company to be
solvent, and that order Judge Cox yester-
cay adopted. All of the road within the
District is completed. and considerable
part OF that in Maryland. Work on the
read in Maryland will. 1t is said, be re-
sumed at a comparatively early date and
pushed to completion.

great physical exertion. His medical ad-

frequent jumping on and off of trains when
they were in motion. He recently realized
the fact that there was some arrangement
in his system and was correspondingly
careful. Saturday morning last he was
compelled to give up, and that was the
last time he was seen at the Baltimore and

The news Of his death came as shock
to his associates, by whom he was univer-

into the service of the Pennsylvania COM

The officers say that Miss Delcomyn
after leaving the loan Office proceeded to
Crocker's shoe store and there secreted the
pawn ticket beneath a cushion. Becoming
frightened, she again visited Heiden-

that the ticket was lost. To the affidavit
she signed the name annie Ryan" She
will be held at the first precinct police sta
