the case was carried over from
last spring. Out of the 27O persons
last spring and over 100 this fall who
had been summoned to sift evidence
against him, the only one was a man
with three or four "aliases" as he had
been known in other places where he
had lived.
The most fortunate man in this nolle
prosequi outcome to say nothing of
those behind him, was Gregory, the
witness for the prosecution. To this
class of men, the offer which Gov. Tun-
nell made before the last election of 800
for the detection of bribery, looked to
them like a tempting and nice plum

PLAIN CASE OF HORSE SENSE.

PLAIN CASE OF HORSE SENSE.
Some of the Things Jim Key Is Doing at
the Exposition.
philadelphia, Nov. 14.-There is al
exceedingly clever actor at the Export
exposition. In every sense of the WORD
he is 1.-The whole show" for, while he
goes through a One-act play, he takes
all the interesting parts himself. He
doesn't say a word, and yet his acting
is so lifelike and clever that it secures
applause every few minutes This
clever actor is known as Beautiful
Jim Key, and he is a dark hay, well
groomed horse, right from Tennessee.
Some of the things Jim does are lit
tie short of marvellous. He bows to
the audience as he comes on the
stage, and then opens school by going
to a closed box, opening it with his
mouth and taking out a brass bell.
ringing it around the stage. Then he
picks out any letter of the alphabet
the audience calls for. The letters are
printed on cards and are arranged oI
a sort of frame. Jim does not make
a single mistake in his work, and even
pulls out the queen of spades and
other playing cards when asked for by
the audience. He added and subtract
ed and multiplied. and then wrote his
name on a blackboard.
Jims writing is bad; there can be
no doubt about this; but it is as good
as that of some prominent people. and
legible to those who are used to read
ing famous mems chirogaphy.

his wonderful ability at arithmetic

THE alleged bribery cases which
were carried over from the spring ses-
sion of the Kent county court, brought
to an end by nolle prosequi (will not
prosecute) on Wednesday, filed a
large place in the public mind, watched
as itbwas with interest from all parts of
the State.
There was no precedence to go by in
the prosecution of the case, and the
lawyers for the defence-Messrs.
Hayes and Ward-by their fertility"
in law seemed not only to put the at
torney for the State, Mr.. White in a
hole and keep him there, but in GER
tain sense ''tied up the court likewise,
"a to the manner of procedure.
In the cases of Caldwell and Downs,
the chief witnesses refused to make
new affidavits in the amended indict-
ments, and if put on the witness stand
their testimonies would have been
really more benefit to the defence than
the prosecution, as they were urged
and coerced into doing what they did
by interested parties. They were
therefore dropped before the nolle pros
was announced by Attorney General
White. The only case where there
seemed any SHOW success, that o1
Reiman, was 50 weak and contradic
tory in the evidence on the stand as tC

worthy, and hewa acquitted.

AT the last election, when DR.. I. c.
Moore went to register, he was chal-
lenged by Mr.. Wilson I. Cavender, the
ground of the challenge being that he
had furnished voters the registration
fee. DR.. Moore at once took heIoath

The coure of the NelOs to Union Re-

promise of it as bribe, has not gone

The HOLIDAYS

The Holidays
Come early, while the best things
are here, and you have plenty of
time and room to look.
People who don't have to ''save
up" for Christmas, and who buy the
most luxurious things, are doing the
most holiday buying; but why not
the others? Is it not more import
ant that they should spend their
money to the very best advantage,
and should not be compelled by the
BUSINESS of those around them to
buy faster than they ought to?
We are looking at our stock all the
time to see if we can't give you some
holiday things at small prices.

THERE is no need of pessimism in
regard to the New Constitution, as is
manifested in some quarters. The
lawyers tested its weak points but the
Judges pronounced its provisions in
regard to bribery constitutional, and
when there is real case with proofs,
there need be no fear of the outcome.
