The New York Independent, the leading
weekly newspaper of the world, and one
whose pages exercise the widest influence,
is entering upon its tlftieth year of publ

fiftieth year by changing its form to that
of magazine, and by reducing its annual
subscription price from $500 to $500;

men copy may be had by addressing The

1t is surprising what ignorance is dis
played by some of the election officers
throughout the county This fact is made
more apparent at the County Clerks office
where the returns are filed. The ballot
keys were this year filed there, and one
fellow, coming from distance, brought
with him key three inches Ions
to which was attached large piece Of
wood. 1t was probably used fifty year;
ago. 81 had to give receipt for thai
key" said the individual, as he cautioned
the clerk not to lose it. In number OF
instances returns that should have gon(
to Trenton were brought to Mount Holly
and some of them were only partially
made out, while others were filled il

officer thought it was necessary to file hi

Not Granted.

On January Bird last applications
were made by j. S. Caranahan, ESQ.,,
in behalf of Thos. Reynolds and E.
Frank White, both confined in the
penitentiary here under sentence by
Judge Gabbert pronounced at Grand
Junction, before Judge Bailey in
Chambers at Canon City for writs of
Habeas Corpus, to release them from
Imprisonment The ground upon
which the applications were made was
that they were sentenced under pleas
of guilty and that no testimony was
taken by the trial judge before pro-
nouncing judgment. The supreme
court recently decided that such fail
ure to take testimony is error and re-
versed judgment on that ground.
1t is now claimed that this decision
establishes rule for the release upon
writ of Habeas Corpus from the
penitentiary of all persons so senten-
ced. There are at least two hundred
convicts imprisoned here under like
conditions, who might be promptly
released if the ruling of the supreme
court goes as far as many attorneys
claim it does. Judge Bailey denied
the application on the ground that the
petitioners are not entitled to the re-
lief prayed in these proceedings, hold
ing that to warrant the issuance of
the writ of Habeas Corpus, the judg-
ment complained of must be absolute
ly void, and this does not in his judg-
ment appear to be the case under the
supreme court decision. These judg-
ments are held by Judge Bailey to be
merely erroneous but not void, from
which relief can be had only by writ
of error to review court or by appli-
cation to the court which pronounced
them to vacate the same. The ruling
is simply that the writ of Habeas
Corpus is not the proper remedy and
that it cannot be used as writ of
review. The prisoners We're remanded
to the custody of the warden of the
penitentiary. James T. Locke, dist
rict attorney, appeared to resist the
application.

There Are Some Places where Tban
derstorms Are Unknown.

There Are Some Places Where III un-
derstorms Are Unknown.
In Finland, East Turkestan, Iceland,
Nova Zembla, the north part of Siberia,
as well as all places in the extreme
north, clap of thunder is an unknown
occurrence; while Peru has only one, or,
at most, two. thunderstorms in a CEN
tury, its thunderstorm of 1s77 having
been the only one since 1903.
Some parts of France. on the other
hand, appear to be the most thundery
places on the earth's surface, as, ac-
cort6ng to the president of the French
Meteorological society. in six or seven
months of 1892 as many as 32s were
counted.
The director of the observatory at
Odessa, who has closely studied the
question, states that there is zone OF
electric activity of great intensity on
both sides of the equator. which is also
the zone Of the greatest rainfall. This
zone he divides into three sections, the
first embracing Asia and Oceanica,
1ndo-China and the Sunda isles to New
Guinea. The yearly thunderstorms over
that zone average from 30 to 100.
The second zone starts from the west
coast of Africa between latitudes and
10 degrees north and Is and Is degrees
south, while the third zone comprises
the tropical regions Of America. where
the mean annual number of thunder
storms exceeds 100.
To the north of this zone, which Is
xfrrmed the electric equator. the storms
decrease in number till the deserts OF
Africa, Egypt, Persia and central Asia
are reached, where the rainfall is scanty
and thunderstorms rare.

A GROWING CITY.
v1a1isvostock WiII Soon BE Famous
as . Railroad Terminus.


as . Railroad Terminus.
Open your atlas at the map of Asia
and look for the city with the long name
of vladfsvostock, on the eastern coast,
north of Japan, says the Chicago Re.
cord. A few years ago this was only a
little barren struggling town of few
thousand inhabitants, most of whom
were Chinese fishermen, who lived in
the deepest poverty. Now it is a rapid
ly growing city of more than 10000 in
habitants, and it will soon become one
of the great ports and naval stations OF
the world. Last week the cornerstone
of the new Russian public works was
laid with great ceremony.
The importance of yladisvostock lies
in the fact that IL is the terminus of the
Trans-Siberian railroad, which runs
from Russia, distance of over 5000
miles, across the barren stretches of ST.
IBERIA. When completed it will have cost
over S175.OOo.O 900, making it one of the
greatest business enterprises of mod
ern times. This railroad will give
Russia great port on the Pacific ocean
and enable her to develop the rich coal
and iron mines of her vast territory,
all of which will add to the Importance
of the new city. Vladisvostock is also
well located for n fortress. and 1t is ex-
pected that Russia will arm IL and make
II base of supplies for her ships. Two
months every year its harbor is frozen
over, but the Russian government keeps
a channel plowed through the ice with a
