sunday Cunning Decision.

Justice Fort, in the Court Of Common
Pleas. at Newark, on Tuesday, reversed the
finding Of a West Orange Justice Of the
Peace, who fined Gustave Ochs $40 on com
plant of Game Warden for carrying a
gun in the woods on Sunday thing
forbidden by the law. Judge Fort held
that the boy had legal right to carry the
gun on the errand on which he claimed to
have been bound, which was to protect a
field of grain belonging to his father from
crows. The section under which he war
fined was also declared unconstitutional.

An interesting Suit at srldseton.

An interesting Suit at Bridgeton.
The suit Of the Cumberland Glass Com
pany to recover on bicycle sold to an en-
ploye has afforded much interest to the
to the glass workers here, and non-uniOn
and union glass blowers were much con-
cerned in its outcome. Warren Wescott, a
non-union glass blowers, went to work for
the Cumberland Company for fire of 1896
81, under contract. 1t was stipulated
when he took his trade to the company
store that he should be given sufficient
work to at least pay for his purchases. He
bought, among other things, bicycle, and
an unpaid balance of $65 yet remains. on
the purcased price,
In the meantime Westcott joined the
union, uniting with local lodge. For
this he was discharged by the company,
being given the information that the union
men would not be employed by the COM
pany.
Wescott holds himself ready to work out
the balance due on the bicycle according
to the agreement, but company sued him
before Mayor Apologize, acting as Justice
of the Peace, and jury tried the case.
The jury returned verdict of mo cause
for action"
The interest in the case Is that it is
backed by the union men with an effort to
demonstrate the illegality of the company
stores and the retention OF employees wages
in payment for purchases of store goods
Hon. T. w. Trenchard, who represented
Westcott, torcibly expounded the law on
this point. The company was represented
by Walter Fl. Bacon, Exq.
Turnpikes VS.. WheeImen.
For year or more wheelmen haYe only
paid toll on turnpikes when absolutely
forced to do SO. The gates have been
run and when these were closed, wheels
haYe been carried around. In order to OBJ
tain judicial ruling on the right of turn
pixies to collect toll, the Woodbury. and
Swedesboro Turnpike Company has brought
suit in the Supreme Court against local
bicycle agent John FL. Leppee, who is
also local counsel for the New Jersey League
of American Wheelmen, ,and the question is
to be judicially determined. The State
League will conduct the case for Mr..
Leppee. Hon. D. o. Watkins, Esq is couD-
sci for the Turnpike Company. A decision
ON this point by the Supreme Court of the
State of Michigan may have bearing on
this case it is at least interesting in this
connection, hence we quote:-
"a decision of interest to wheelmen was
made by the supreme court of Michigan,
recently. James o. Murfn recovered
damages against the Detroit & Erie Road
Co. for preventing him from riding BIZ
cycle upon its road without the payment of
toll. The supreme court holds that there
is nothing in ths statute to authorize the
company to charge toll against pedestrians
or persons propelling wheelbarrows, carts
or baby carriages. The court thinks that
distinction may be made between vehicles
propelled by men and those depending
upon animal or motor power for propulsion.
The former class, it is held, cannot be re-
quired to pay toll upon the plank and toll
roads of this State.

Mr.. Lodge, answering criticisms ON the Cor

labor on public works. and also against those
coming regularly and habituaily to this side to
engage in any mechanical trade or manual
labor. These were just aud reasonable re.
etrictions. The bill, as a whole, sought to re-

AnInteresfing Bit Of History

Deep IN the woods of Maryland, IN the
valley of the Antietam surrounded by its
majestic hills, there lived in the last CEN
fury man who, by the results of perse-
vering study and scientific investigation,
secured for himself the lasting gratitude OF
his own and following generations. While
others were bent on measures of war dur
ing those revolutionary times, he was
quietly following out Il mission of ''peace
and goodwill to men" by ministering to the
wants of the sick and afflicted Means of
transportation IN those early days were of
course, very meager, being limited, in the
main, TO travel on horseback-but even
that form of transportation was denied to
him of whom these few lines are written,
for, when boy, he had met with an acct
dent which had caused curvature of the
spine, giving him the appearance of a
), hunch- back" hence he always travelled
aioot The distance from farm to farm
and valley to valley was oftentimes very
great but distance had no horrors for him
il he thought his help and skill was needed,
hence it was that he became known, not
only in the section of Maryland, where he
lived at that time, but in parts of Pennsyl-
vania and Virginia as well. The man of
whom we write was old DIR. Peter Fahrney,
the grandfather of the present doctor who
bears the same name. His life was not
only devoted to scientific research, but he
was also an active leader and a pillar in
the church to which he belonged. 1t was
these combined qualities of heart and mind
which endeared him to the people and
which have actuated the descendants of
those among whom he labored to now
honor his memory as q man and citizen.
With that end in view, the Fahrney Memo
rial Association was recently organized at
San Mar Md. 1t has secured control of
the old medical shOpY which was used by
him as office, laboratory. etc. 1t is yet in
q fairly good state. of preservation. This
shop" las it was then called) is now to be
enclosed by an iron fence and covered by a
copper roof, so as to- hereafter protect it
from the ravages of the weather. Near
the shop" is the same water spring
bubbling up betweenHthe rocks as it did
over 100 years ago.. and which, even in
those days, afforded weary travellers many
q refreshing drink. This spring is now to
be turned into free, public fountain for
the benefit of travellers along that highway
indeed, most fitting commemoration of
the life and services of one who so untir-
ingly ministered to both the physical and
spiritual welfare Of the people. 1t does
not often happen that the memory of a man
who lived such quiet and unassuming ex-
istence, occupied as he was, solely in the
field of medical research, hoping thereby to
benefit his fellow men, is SO highly revered
by fourth and fifth generation. One
thing is certain, when, in, this cold and
prosaic age. community makes such pub
lie recognition of mans services and is
willing to place itself to such expense in
honorlng his memory so that future gene
rations may also know about him, that
man must have been above the ordinary
and his life and activity not in vain. So
much in honor of the discoyerer of DIR.

POLITICAL NOTES.

1t is now generally believed that the Cabinet
will stand as follows, given III the order they
stand in the Presidential succession:
Secretary of State-John Sherman, of Ohio
Secretary of the Treasury-Lyman J. Gage
of Illinois
Secretary of War-Gen. Russell A. Alger, OF
Michigan.
Secretary of the Navy d. Long, of Massa.
chusetts.
Secretary of the Interior-Joseph McKenna,
of California.
Postmaster Genera-James A. Gary, of
Maryland.
Attorney General-John J. McCook, of New
York.
Secretary of Agriculture-James Wilson, of
Iowa.
Jas. A. Gary, who has been offered and
accepted position in the Cabinet without it
being definitely determined which portfolio
will be assigned him, is one Of the most promi-
nent business men of Baltimore. He was born
in that city 63 years ago. and was carefully
educated. he was taken into partnership with
his father in 1861, and displayed remarkable
business ability. He was an ardent Union
man during the war. He has never been an
office seeker, but has several times accepted
nominations for hopeless races as a matter OF
party duty. He and Maj. Mckinley have long
been warm friends.
The situation in Ohio has been cleared up by
the formal announcement by Gov. Bushnell
that he will appoint Mark Hanna to succeed
Senator Sherman. The Governor did not wan,
to do this. but was forced by strong public
opinion. Bushnell brought out other candi.
dates-Licut.-Gov. Jones. Chairman Kurtz.
among them-but found that they were not re-
ceived with favor by the people, who were
unit for the brilliant manager of the last politi.
cal campaign.
The lower branch of the Oregon Legislature
has declared vacant the seats of the q mem bers
mostly Populists-who have refused to be
sworn in, hoping thereby to prevent the election
of John III. Mitchell as Senator. If they won't
do their duty they ought to be disqualified and
cut out of their pay. Their unseating does not
improve Mr.. Mitchels chances, however as a
majority of the whole number of members
| elected TO the Legislature must vote for him be,
fore he can be chosen United States Senator
The prospect of losing their sessions pay may
bring in the absentees, and promise OF dis.
charging their duty hereafter their seats may
be restored to them. This is doubtless the pur-
pose of the move. 1t will either bring about
the election of Mitchell or the ad journment oil
the Legislature without accomplishing any
thing.
