OF CURRENT INTEREST.

'The Garfield boys, Harry and 'Jim,' sons of the ex-president, are two of the best liked and most respected of Clevelands citizens,' remarked a resident of that city recently. Both are in reality rising young men, men of sterling character, ability above the ordinary, and withal the qualities es- sential to successful careers. Harry, the elder brother, doesn't care much for active politics. He inclines more to business pursuits, and is looked on as first rate lawyer. He is vice president Of a big trust company, and was urged by his friends for the presi- dency of the chamber of commerce His brother, who is also his law part Ter, has decided penchant for the po- litical arena. He acquitted himself with credit in the state senate and though the influence of Mayor McKis- sons followers kept him from being nominated for congress, he will cer- tainly go to Washington as a legisla- tor at no distant day. He believes in honest and straightforward dealing in politics, and would never descend to shady methods even to attain a per- sonal ambition. I predict that the country will know great deal more about Jim Garfield in the next few years than it does now. It can also be said to the credit of the boys that neither has the slightest symptom of swell head"

THE DEPUTIES TRIAL.

evidence showing Inelf DelefIlIuu-
tIon to Shoot the strikers.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, Feb. 1.-THE Mar
tin trial on Saturday developed little
new evidence. One important witness,
however, was Mary Kohler, who was
u servant living with John Williams, at
Lattimer, at the time of the shooting.
In her cross examination she said the
people of Lattimer were afraid when
they heard the strikers were marching
toward them, and were in terror lest
their houses be broken into. Mr.. gar
man finally made her qualify this dam
aging evidence by the statement that
the people were also afraid that the
deputies were going to shoot.
A most important. witness was John
Petruska, IA huckster. He testified:
AT Hazleton | saw the deputies get
ting guns at a hardware store. l heard
the people inquire, and the men said
they were going to shoot. l went home,
put away my horses and went to Lat
timer to see if they would shoot. l was
on the left of the road with the min
ers, about % steps away from the dep
uties. l saw the sheriff come to the
people. He had a revolver, and pointed
it into the peoples faces. l was four
steps away from him. Suddenly he
disappeared, and the shooting began.
The miners were doing nothing when
the sheriff pointed the pistol in their
faces. One man pushed his arm with
the pistol away and the sheriff disap-
peared, together with the deputies. j
heard a man call fire near the depu-
ties" His testimony was mistaken on
cross examination.

THE TRIAL OF M. lola.

Evidence That Captain Dreyfus Was
Convicted on a secret Document.
Paris, Feb. 14.-In the Zola trial on
Saturday there were some points made
for the novelist, despite the judges ar
bitrary rulings which have heretofore
suppressed evidence by permitting dig
nitaries to decline answering questions
on the plea of professional secrecy"
By the clever of Maitre
Laborie and Maitre DeMange, the lat
ter, who knew very well that III was
breaking the law, got in a statement
that the reason that he objected to the
Dreyfus trial was that Dreyfus had
been convicted on a secret document,
handed to his judges without it's being
communicated either to the prisoner or
to himself. He ought to have waited
till the question was put to him by the
judges, who would, of course, have re-
fused to put it, but did not do so, and
got in a quiet mails oui before he could
be checked.
BY n similar maneuVer on the part of
Maitre Clemenceau he was able to state
that what Maitre de Sales wanted to
say two days 6 vas hat he had
dined with n of the Dreyfus judges,
and had been told by the latter that
they had convicted Dreyfus on a secret
document.
Colonel Picquart did not have a good
