Each tndid Himself.

Il was in Oklahoma when the first
Legislature passed the hanging law. The
man that introduced the bill W l. N.
Terrill. He was next door to a border
ruffian, out he was a dramatic speaker.
could make an impressive amount of
noise, Ii had his measure enacted.
"While the laws of the session were
being codified the clerks OH the work
were startled by u pistol shot on the
street, and. looking ont the window,
saw Terrill standing with Il smoking re-
volver over a citizen he had killed. He
was the first man to be sentenced under
the new act. Had he paid the penalty
he would have been the example Of a
man who made Il law to hang himself,
but influence and new trials got him off
with ~ years in the p~enitentiary.
But that is net all. AT the third ses-
sion of the legislature an attempt was
made to repeal the law. Harry st. John,
chairman of the committee Oh jurispru-
dence, opposed this movement and held
the report Of the committee back. On
the last day the house made an impera-
tive demand for the report, but st. John
coolly put it into his pocket, left the
building and did not return until the
session had expired by limitation"
and what happened TO him:'
"He went to his home in Oklahoma
| City, and within n few days came tho
terrible news that he had murdered his
wife. You may call it fate, justice, &C
cident, what you please, but it happen

THURSDAY, APRIL %, 1897.
NEW LAW IN REGARD TO LEAS-
ING LAND.

A simple and less expensive system of
securing leases and executing bonds for
schOol and state lands is the result of
an act passed by the Legislature of 1897,
providing that leases may be signed in
the presence of a notary public. justice
OF the peace, or other officer authorized
to administer oaths, the bond alone re-
quiring the approval OF the county clerk.
Hitherto the law required all leases to
be executed in the presence of the coun-
ty clerk of the county in which the land
was situated, and this necessitated great
expense and Inconvenience to parties
living n distance from the county seat.
Under the recent law, when APPLICATIONS
to lease are granted by the board. the
bond in security of the rental is forward
ed to each applicant, who is required to
sign the anne with two sureties in the
presence OF witnesses, n then forward
the bond to the county clerk for his up
proval. When approved, the bond is
returned to the applicant, who, in turn,
forwards it to the office OF the register
OF the state land board with an amount
sufficient to cover the first years rental.
Upon the receipt of the bond. properly
executed and approved. together with
the first years rental, the board issues
a lease in due form to the applicant.
It IL thought that this system will re-
suit In the leasing Of more lands by the
people Of the state. as well as giving the
state better security in the matter OF
bonds.

fraud his creditors, and in the case Of a !
public officer, an officer of u corporation,
or an attorney or agent charged with
embeZzlement. In each OF these cases
there is some criminal element present, |
and even then the prisoner may be re-
leased upon filing u bond sufficient in
to protect the creditors. The
prisons are recognized as places of de
0tention for criminals who have COM
mitted some wrong against the COM
munity. and not to be used to enforce
obligations between individuals.
In cases of divorce the law places the
wife under the speciai protection Of the
courts. The husband may be ordered,
as in this case, to pay the wife's ex-
penses during the trial, including a sum
proper for her support, and also, where
she secures the decree, a regular allow
ance FOR her future support proportion
ed to his means. These orders the court
will enforce even to the extent OF i'm
prisoning the husband until the order
has been complied with. The imprisou-
ment is nominally for contempt of court,
and continues until the prisoner has
been purged OF contempt. But, in re-
ality. it is to enforce the collection of n
debt, and it has that result alone.
This procedure is confined almost ex-
clusively to the cases where payment is
to be enforced under and order in an nc
ton for divorce, but it is capable OF ex-
tension. There is nothing to prevent a
judge from enforcing the payment of
any debt that has been found by the
lawful judgment, order, or process OF
the court is declared by the code to be a
contempt Of the authority OF the court
and may be punished as such. When the
contempt consists in the omission to
perform an act which is yet in the pow
err of the person to perform, he may be
imprisoned until he shall have perform
ed it. and the judge may decide as to the
ability OF the prisoner to carry out its
orders. since the judgment and orders in
contempt cases are final and conclusive.
a judge probably could enforce the pay
ment of many money judgment entered
in his court by this procedure, and that
this drastic measure has not been ap-
piled is probably due more to public
opinion than the strict letter of the law.
1t is n Of those cases in which legal
abuses are prevented by that authority
which is higher than all legal enact
ments.-Argonaut.

IMPRISONMENT FOR DEBT,

The spectacle of a millionaire confined
in a whitewashed cell beneath the San
Rafael court house, and in the custody
OF the sheriff like a common criminal for
the n~on-payment Of a debt of $3.50, is
one that may we'll attract general in
terest. 1t has been the boast that our
humane civilization has abolished i'm
prisonment for debt; that the genius OF
the modern law recognizes that IN in
ability to pay what is owed is a misfor-
tune to inspire sympathy rather than a
crime to be punished. Yet here is
Colonel P. A. Finnegan, mine owner and
possessor of valuable real estate, lang
uishing in Jail because he has not paid
the paltry sum OF $3.50 declared by the
court to be due to his wife.
According to his story, Colonel Finne>
gan was married 10 years ago to a hand
ome young woman. He says that she
a e~xtravagant and flirtatious. She
says that he was cruel and Jealous. At
last the wife brought suit for divorce,
and. in the preliminary hearing, the
judge ordered that the colonel should
pay her $3.50 to defray the expenses OF
her suit for divorce and her lawyers
fees, 5000 alimony, and a further sum OF
500 a month for her support during the
pendency of the action. This struck the
colonel as a most offensive method OF
furnishing the sinews Of war to the
enemy, and he promptly refused to COM
ply. The law. however. is nothing if
not gallant, and the cour as promptly
espoused the feminine side OF the quar-
rel. The colonel was given his choice OF
paying up or going to Jail until he did
SO, and he unhesitatingly chose the lat
ter alternative.
Since his incarceration, Colonel Fin
negan has become quite a hero. He
holds daily receptions in his cell, at
which he entertains the numerous
friends who call, his furniture has been
brought from the hotel. and his meals
are furnished by a French restaurant
across the street, his humble apartment
Is daily %garnished with fresh flowers,
and the door Of his cell is left open all
day that his visitors may come and go
at their pleasure. for the authorities have
no fear that their prisoner will attempt
to enect an escape. Indeed, the colonel
expresses the utmost content with his
present condition and surroundings. He
has never slept SO we'll. and he looks for

GRECIANS IN AMERICA.
King George Has Nearly $4,000 Loyal
Subjects in the New World.

King George has in this country So
600 loyal subjects, who though at the
a%ntipodes from him, are as Grecian in
looks and patriotic in heart as though
just sailing from the Orient. At the
word of war they all sprang to their
feet, but on being convinced that so
country earning than at home spending
it. they remained, but gathered together
a fund that grew from day to day-is
growing daily-until there goes out
weekly from these shores a little fortune
to help the Cretan struggle in the Old
World, says the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The Grecian foreign population in the
United Suites is the most peculiar of all
the immigrant host. 1t is very large.
more numerous. indeed, than the Swed-
ish and Norwegian put together, and as
large, perhaps. as the Italian or the
Spanish. But it is quieter, and the citi-
zens pursue walks of life in which they
are not conspicuous. These ars so i'm
portant, however, that if the Greeks
should disappear from this country,
there would be n void which could not
easily be filled.
When the subjects Of King George ar
rive in this country they invariably
know where they are going. A great
number turn their faces towards st.
Louis. where the Greeks have large and
important manufacturing interests.
Others continue on their way and go to
Denver, where they conduct mother
branch OF the same business. Or to
Boston, where they handle fruit. A very
large number 60 south to raise lowers,
the dearest of all occupations to the
Grecian heart.
Greek occupation in this country is
hereditary. A man works at the candy
business until he is old. If he has no
sons he sends home for uephews or
cousins. These come over and the old
man goes back to Greece. So genera
ton after generation the business is con-
Quoted. If you ever knew a Greek in
business in any city. and if you wan to
address him. it will be safe for you to do
SO, for OF his kin is now acting as
his successor.
There are three Greek occupations fol-
lowed by almost every subject of Greece
who comes to this country. They are
the selling of fruit and flowers, the rails
ing OF the same and the manufacture OF
candy. By far the greater number sell
fruit and flowers, and the pushcarts and
stands that line the streets are manag-
ed by Greeks-of that you may be very
sure.
The English language is speedily
learned by Greeks who come to Ameri-
ca. Small handbooks are circulated
among them with useful sentences"
They contain: only 10 cents, lady"
Five cents apiece" six for FIVE" and
Cost me much" This, with a knowl-
edge OF American money. constitutes a
sufficient vocabulary for a sidewalk
merchant to start in upon.
Greek women rarely work. When they
do they engage in some very pretty &C.
cupation. The longest-stemmed flow
ers. the brightest blossoms and the mic
est potted plants are given to them to
peddle; and right gay they look rugged
in a plaid shawl and with their hair
neatly and becomingly dressed. my lit
tie Greek flower girl" is a figure in the
daily life of many a metropolitan.

house Among the Build
ings in Ruins.
Three Squares in the Center of
lronton, O., Laid Waste
by Flames.

WASHINGTON, Sept 30.-Fire broke
out in the Central power station of the
Capital Traction company at IL o'clock
and in 80 minutes the magnificent g.
story structure was doomed. The
building occupies an entire block. The
blaze started on the southwest corner
and despite the efforts of the entire fire
department swept like wind through
the enormous building. The flames
leaped across Four teenth street on the
west to big livery stable and OH the
east to row of 3-story brick houses,
which was destroyed. The entire fire
department was on the scene. but so
fierce was the confagration that their
efforts were futile. The loss will be
about 100000 on buildings, $500, 900 on
machinery and stored cars, while the
losses sustained by tenants will amount
to 5000, 900 more.
The fire started in the printing office
of Harvey & Gettinger. 1t had soon
gained such headway that it was evil
dent nothing could be saved, and the
alarm was sounded to the large force of
men at work in the building. Many of
them were compelled to jump from the
windows so rapidly did the flames pro-
gress. Within half an hour after the
fire started the entire building was en-.
veloped and the flames seemed to soar
over 100 feet into the air. The falling
of the heavy 6.story walls shook the
buildings for squares around.
