THERE is one paper in the State
that doesn't believe in a non parti-
san judiciary, neither in personnel
nor in official action. The Hickory
Press, Republican, takes the unjust
and prejudiced view that Republican
judges should render Republican
decisions and takes Chief Justice
Faircloth and Justice Furches to
task for not doing so and intimates
that they are in secret sympathy
with the Democratic party. This is
partisanship run to seed. AS the
Charlotte Observer remarks, "noth-
ing like it has ever been laid down in
North Carolina before"

BUDD ON MT. TAMALPAIS.
The Governor and Party of Prominent
Politicians Pass a Night at
the Summit

MILL VALLEY, CAL, April 10.-They
did not throw bouquets at Governor
Jim" Budd this afternoon when he ar
rived in Mill Valley with his party to
take the train Tor the summit OF Mount
Tamalpais; not that there were not fiow-
ers in profusion with which the pathway
of the chief executive might have been
strewn, but it was not done for the reason
that Mill Valley Is in Marin County, and
Governor Budd pocke,ed certain bills
passed by the late Legislature that favored
Marin County. In the language of the
Bowery politician, He didn't do ting
to Marin" And so when the putting liz
tie engine came steaming into Mill Valley
with its celebrated guests, instead OF a
deluge OF flowers, all that greeted him was
row of curious faces owned by people
waiting to get look at the Governor
As the boat arrived at SausalIto the
Governor and party occupied prom Inent
positions on the upper deck. Prison Di-
rector James II. Wilkins led the party off
the boat, and seats were found on the for
ward car of the Mill Valley train. The
train moved out imm ediately and made
but one stop on its trip to Mill Valley.
Tne mountain road had all the people it
could handle and move, but the Governor
and his party found room and the train
pulled out.
The party will spend tonight on the
summit Besides Governor Budd, the
pariy includes: Prison Director James HI.

0REC0E'S CHINESE 70NG.
cooHe Fishermen on The Columbia Or
game to D-ive Out White
Inhor

PORTLAND, Or, April 10 The
Chinese canneTy workers of the Lower
Colum bia River have effected an organi-
cation known as the Quong Sing Tong
Coolies notified the cannerymen of AS
toria and the Columbia River that no
white labor must be employed in the cam
neries, otherwise the members of this
Tartar gang will refuse 10 work. ]. e.
Dahl of Astoria, who was here to-day,
says that the cannervmen bowed TO the
Mongolian demand and consented to de-
prive white men and women of the oppor-
tunfty of earning a few dollars froni the
packing OF fish caught in the Colum bia
River.
If the Chinese are really EN- ployed to
the exclusion OF white people who have
experienced hard times during the past
year owing to the fishermen's strike reign
of bloodshed may bs looked forward to.
The anti Chinese riots sure to follow in
such an event will prove more serious and
costly than those here in 1886 The white
fishermen along the Columbia River,
whose families have heretofore found
light work IN the canneries, are wild over
the suggestion of putting their bread in O
the mouths of the Chinese and they al-
ready are in a threatening mood.

MAN AND TIE APE.
DR.. SPENCER Trotter illustrates Points OF
Resemblance and Dissimilarity.

DR.. spVnoer Trotter illustrates Points Of
Resemblance and Dissimilarity.
DR.. Spencer Trotter of Swarthmore col
iege delivered an illustrated lecture at the
Academy Of Natural Sciences on 'Animal
characteristics of Man. -
"In his brain structure, - said DR.. Trot-
ter, "man Is evidently closely 9llied with
the ape, and the difference between man
and any of the higher apes in this respect
is not SO great as that which exists be-
tween the apes and monkeys taken as
whole, and the other mammalian orders.
And as Huxley says, The difference in
weight Of brain between the highest and
lowest man is far greater, both relatively
and absolutely, than between the lowest
man and highest ape.
Speaking of heredity, DR.. Trotter said
it was a well known fact that the young
of all animals tend to revert to the ances-
tral type. "Thus, said he, Sin group Of
closely allied species of birds-where some
of the species are solidly colored and some
have notified plumage and spotted breasts
the young of the solidly colored species
are often conspicuously notified and spot
ted. This is notably the case with the
thrushes, especially in the case of our rob
in So among mammals the young Of
ferent from their parents Lion cubs, for
example, show spots which ally them to
the leopards and their kind.
'sThe human infant presents many sim
ian features, which, though shocking to
the fond parent, point nevertheless toward
a common anthropoid ancestry. Among
the most remarkable of these evanescent
characteristics are the plantar burrows or
creases on the sole of the foot In newborn
babies, which, as DR.. Louis Robinson has
pointed out, present a striking similarity
to the creases on the foot of the ape. DR..
Robinson las also shown that not only the
pluntur fEgrow, but also the great mobility
of The -.', in young babies must have had
their or, iI IN an arboreal ancestor possess
ing prchunsble foot. The disproportion-
ate strength of grip in the hand of a young
baby and the tendency which it shows to
cling to things further support the theory
of an arboreai life on the part Of mans
archaic ancestor.
"The young ape is quite human in the
relative features of the head and face,
while the adult degenerates toward more
bestial character. At the same time the
adult man approaches more toward low
er type in certain features, notably in the
greater development of the brows and ia
cial elements, and his senile characters are
decidedly simian"
In conclusion, DR.. Trotter said that
while his ancestors may have had adyan
tages in protection from the weather by q
hairy covering ard a more keen sense OF
| hearing and smell, man had unquestioned
| advantages in the development of his men
/ tai faculties and the skin Of his hand -

A Novel Rarometer.

1t has taken clever Frenchman to dis
cover a kind of barometer which may be
safely called unique. An English journal
says that it is nothing more nor less than
the figure Of a general made of ginger
bread. He buys one every year and takes
it homo and hangs 1t by a string on nail
Gingerbread, as every one knows, is
easily affected by changes in the atmos-
phere The slightest moisture renders it
soft, while in dry weather it grows hard
and tough.
Every morning on going out the French
man asks his servant, "What does tho gen
eral sayY' and the man applies his thumb
to the gingerbread figure.
Perhaps he may reply; "The general
feels soft. He would advise you taking an
umbrella" On the other hand if the
gingerbread is hard and unyielding TO the
touch, it is safe to go forth in ones best
attire, umbrellaloss and confident.
The Frenchman declares that the gen
eral has never yet proved unworthy of the
confidence placed in him, and would ad-
wise all whose purse will not allow them
to purchase barometer or aneroid, to see
what the local baker can do for them in
the gingerbread line. -Harper's Round
Table.

OHIO ELECTROCUTIONS.
Two Murderers Die in the Electrical
Chair in That State,
GOTH MEN MET DEATH BRAVELY.

The First TO Die wasa Nineteen-Year-
Old Youth Convicted of Criminal As
sault and Murder-The Second Was
a wife Murderer.
Columbus, o., April 21-The first
electrocutions in Ohio took place short
ly after Midnight in the annex Of the
Ohio penitentiary. The electrocution
chair and appliances have been in place
in the old execution room for several
weeks. They are similar to those used
IN New York.
The electroeution of William Haas
was set for April s, but owing to the
burning out of the armature on the
electrocution dynamo the electrocution
had to be postponed, and Governor
Bushnell fixed the date so that Haas
would .be electrocuted on the day set
for the execution Of William Wiley,
a new armature, to be used only for
electrocutions, was secured.
To prevent any possibility Of the
armature being tampered with an eX-
ira guard was placed In the dynamo
room Haas and Wiley, the condemned
men. passed their last day in reading
and religious devotions. The death
warrants were read to them during
the morning. Haas, who was only Il
years of age, had been Indifferent tc
his fate ever since his arrival at the
! annex.
! Haas was the first to be electrocuted
I lie was strapped in the chair at 1927
When he was brought into the electro-
/ cution room he closely scrutinlzed the
chair and was pushed into It. The
current was turned on for a period OF
/ two seconds three times in succession
AS soon as the body of Haas was taker
/ out of the chair Wiley was brought in
and at 1885 he was strapped in the
/ chair Both electrocutions were emf
| nently successful The condemned
/ men were nervy to the last
The crime for which Haas was cleo
trocuted was the criminal assault and
murder Of Mrs. Brader, the only oo
cupant Of the house except himself
After cutting her throat with a razor
to cover up the crime Haas set fire
to the house and fed.
William Wiley murdered his wife OF
the West Side of Cincinnati 20 dayl
after Haas committed the above crime

MORE NEED FOR RELIEF.

Flooded South,
FIFTEEN THOUSAND SUFFERERS

At vicksburg There Are so Many
Clamoring for RELIEF That 1t Is DIFF
ncult to systematize the worls-But
Slight Loss Of Life.
Memphis, April 21-The river at
Vicksburg, Helena, Natchez and from
st. Joseph, La, to Bayou Sara, La,
is reported either stationary or falling.
This condition is the result of the vast
amount of water passing through the
crevasse at Biggs' and Reeds levees,
above Natchez, and at Hancock's, be-
low. The levee in the immediate vicin-
ity Of Natchez continues to hold the
great strain, but it is now of little in
terest to the planters in Concordia,
Tensas and Madison parishes, as the
water backed up from the breaks above
end below win soon flood the rich lands
of these parishes. and the rise viii be
almost as disastrous as If other breaks
should occur. The Red and Tensas
rivers today began spreading over a
section of 30 miles to the interior.
Work continues on the levees, how
ever, and everything possible is being
done to hold tn remainder of the levoo
system Refugees continue to flock
into the principal towns of the Mis-
sissippi and ST. Francis deltas and
the relief committees are taxed to their
utmost to provide for the wants of the
destitute. At Memphis the river con-
tinues to fall. Reports from Greenville,
! Rosedale and Cairo state that an en-
couraging decline is noted
Reports of loss of life come from
Bayou Vidal in the lower portion of
| Madison parish, La. The water from
/ the Biggs crevasse caught the people
/ there unprepared. How many were
actually drowned is unknown, but
! Thomas Blackman, his wife and in
| fant are known to have perished. Boats
have been sent to the locality.
BY the prompt measures taken by
Major Willard, United States engineer
in dispatching the steamer Vidette
with sl1iffs, to the country back OF
Coons Landing it is believed that al
persons in danger will be relieved in
time. The Florence, returning from
there yesterday, reported no cases of
drowning in the back country, though
there is unquestionably great danger
and the loss of stock is believed to be
heavy
The work OF relief Is proceeding al
Viclsburg under difficulties, the ap-
plicants being so numerous that it is
a task to systematize the distribution
1t is impossible to say how many per
sons are in need, but estimates run az
high as $1,000.
