DIDN'T TARRY TOO LONG.
Captain whiting, of the Monitor
MOnadnOck, Acquitted.

WASHINGTON, Oct S.-The incoming
mail from the East brings a report of a
court of inquiry held in Manila to investi-
gate charge made by Harold Sewall late
United States minister to Hawaii, against
Captain Whiting, of the Monadnock. The
gist of the charge was that the captain had
detained the monitor at Honolulu on the
passage across from San Francisco to
Manila much longer than was necessary be-
cause his family resided in that city. The
Monadnock was only two or three days
overdue at Manila and the court acquitted
the captain of any intentional delay.

LONDON, Oct. S.-The Medical Journal
publishes the report of DR.. Cinet. of Paris,
asserting that guillotining does not imme-
diately affect the brain. The French doctor
says the blood first comes from the larger
vessels of the neck and that there is hardly
any drain upon the circulation in the crani-
m. The brain he adds, finds nourshment
for an hour after decapitation, during which
time the person decapitated retains his 9TH
er senses of hearing. smelling and seeing.
Absolute death, DR.. Cinet claims, does not
ensue for three hours. Thus, it is pointed
out. guillotining. instead of being speedy, is
one of the most prolonged and horrible
forms of capital punishment.
