1t is a decidedly unique thing for a
popular secular magazine to publish a
religious serial study of Biblical char
acters, and pursue it persistently in
defiance of creed and dogma. An am
bilious undertaking, and one that is
evidently meeting with magnificent
success. The pace set by the young
and growing "National Magazine y
of Boston is being intently watched
by the older periodicals. The Ma

COURTS IN CONFLICT. .....
Serious Clash Between federal and

Charleston. W. Va, Nov. IA serl-
GUS clash between federal and state ju-
dicial authorities Is expected here.
Maynard F. Stiles, attorney for Henry
c. King. of New York. obtained from
the United States circuit court here an
injunction to inhihit the sheriff of
Logan county from selling the land Of
his client for taxes. Judge Doolittle,
Of the circuit court of Logan county,
issued a rule against Stiles for con-
tempt. After hearing Stiles answer to
the ruling Judge Doolittle committed
Stiles to jail to remain there until in
junction proceedings In the federal
court were dismissed. Stiles was plac-
ed in the county Jail and an applica-
ton was made to Judge Jackson for a
writ of habeas corpus which Judge
Jackson issued, and deputy marshal
federal court.
The sheriff and jaller refused, under
instructions from Judge Doollttle, to
deliver the prisoner to United States
officers. and the officer having reported
to court Judge Jackson was asked to
issue writ of attachment against the
sheriff and jailer, the effect of which
was to bring these officers, with their
prisoner, before the court. Attorney
General Rucker of this state, requested
Judge JackysSn to delay issuing the
writ until ~ can communicate with
Judge Doolitte, which Judge Jackson
agreed to do.
If Judge Doolittle refuses to give up
the prisoner an attachment will issue,
and If the United States officers are
resisted United States troops may be
called on to suppress the rebellion.

Mysterious Prisoner at Valerien.

London, Nov. 1.-The Paris corre-
spondent of The Times, diating upon
the fact that the Dreyfus affair Oc-
eurred under M. Dupuy's former pre-
mership and when President Faure
was minister Of marine. says:
1T Is disquieting for the revisionists
that M. Faure now confers the pre-
miership upon M. Dupuy, as these two
are called upon to screen their former
colleague, General Mercier. Certainly
the combination occurred somewhat
tardily, now that the court Of cassa
tion Is In possession Of the affair. but
on the other hand M. De Freycinet the
new minister of war, who has been
four times premier, has never faced
difficulties. but has always turned from
them or eluded them. He is past mas
ter in the art Of meeting great ques-
tions by petty solutions, and fear that
under him the bright sunshine demand
ed may change into a rush light, il
Eliminating only a tiny corner of the
mystery.
mot that M De Freycinet is likely to
burn or withhold the secret dossier. but
there are such labyrinths in his brain
that YOU never know what Ariadne
could discover the clew. We may ex-
pect any surprises rather than a clear
solution. Nobody, however, denies the
superiority of his nature, and it may
be hoped that, being satiated with Of
flee and having probably renounced
the dream Of supreme power cherished
so many years, he will place his great
subtlety and adroitness at the service
of the highest cause Of truth and JUS
tice, without trembling before any one
