Interest 10 the celebrated Joe Kirby
postage stamp stealing case which was
appealed to the L. 8. supreme court
about two years ago has just been revlv-
ed by the handing down Of the supreme
courts decision which reverses the lower
court and remands the case for a new
trial. The chief point on which the su-
preme court appears to have based it's
decision for error was in the fact that on
the trial Of KIRBY under the statute the
government introduced the record O. the
tria! aud conviction at Deadwood of his
alleged accompiices IN order to furnish
proof that the crime had been COM
mitted. Tie defendant held this point
Unconstitutional inasmuch as the con.
%s.itution provides that any man on trial

nesses against hun, and not have the
crime proven by the record Of another
trial instead Of by witnesses to the crime
itself. On this and perhaps other points
the supreme court has held with Kirby.

BOOKS ARE EVIDENCE.

Quay Defense Receives . Ia Blow in
Their Admission.
PHILADELPHIA. April l3.-When court
opened for the third day of the trial of
ex-United States Senator Quay, there
was indication on all sides that the cru.
cial point on the whole proceedings had
been reached, namely, the question of
the admission of the books of the bank
as evidence. and especially those docu-
ments found in the private desk of Cash.
Ter Hopkins. The argument made by
David T. Watson. of counsel for Mr..
Quay. in opposition to their admission
generally. aud specifically to the private
letters written by Quay to Hopkins.
which were identified by Teller Tabor,
was the subject uppermost in the public
mind. A decision in favor of the de-
Tense virtually means the collapse of
the trial. while the admission of the
books may prove a serious blow to the
defendant.

The Building Of a Soldier.

Jos Jerry hoed in stony field,
Under sweitering sun,
The boy aad the rcck ard the native weed
Fought for the lie in battered seed
Aud the struggle was jast begun.
"Get ont of the mud and follow me-
Said the man with better clothes,
Against you are vermin and drought and
frost;
You anger Nature with labor lost
Come where fair wind blows"
3 It the boy digged on in the stony field.
With the struggle barely begun,
Il pat the seed in this ground" said he;
Il think had better stay and see
Whatever may be done.
Joe Jerry quarried and placed the stones
And fitted the timbe S true,
Then his neighbors cane with fe"ered eyes:
Gold pans Of gold .-j1st there it lies!
Shall We wait day for you;'
A sweet voice rifted The evening calm,
Singing the death of day,
4 tired child came and went with a kiss,
Il have a wife, and house and this;
think had better stay"
"War! war; the crv-and the cry came
near
"Ttere is fame, aud to spare for ALL
Il have q dying wife and these,
Ill stay with them. if God 50 please"
But lie went at tie second call.
Come lack they cried through the

To soldier bleeding and grim,

Answering only: The captains hurt;

county offices and finance beg leave
to make this our report:
We have made careful! examina-
ton of all the county Offices and find
every thibg kept in a good and
orderly manner.
We have examined all the official
bonds and find them and their Sc
curity sufficient.
We find the County Treasurers
books we'll kept and balanced; and
we find he has sufficient funds on
hand to meet his liability; We also
find him ready for settlement with
the Comptroller General and County
Auditor. We are glad to say tie
arrangement in his Office for his pro-
lection is about complete and credit
to the County Supervisor.
We find that with this years COL
lection cf taxes the school debt of the
county will be paid in full with the
exception Of s3oo72. As this year
will complete the third year in which
the School Commissioner, under a
special act of the Legislature, has
authority to reserve the one-third OF
the public school tax income to meet
and pay up the school indebtedness
of the county. We suggest that the
deficiency above mentioned be paid
out of the dispensary funds coming
into his hands before it is disbursed
among the different public schools OF
the county, and thereby put the
schools on cash basis.
In connection with the public
school interests of the county, we
beg to say, We find that, under the
now existing law, every county IN
the State derives benefit from the
dispensary funds, even those counties
in which there is no dispensary. We
think this is serious wrong to those
counties in which dispensaries are
kept, and we would suggest that our
Representatives attention be called
to this matter end that they use
their efforts to have this fund dis
tributed among the counties in which
the dispensaries are kept, and &C
cording to the income derived from
the dispensaries of such counties re-
spectively.
We find the Sherif"s office and
books we'll kept, and sufficient funds
on band to meet bis official liabilities.
We find the Probate Judges cfice
and books we'll kept with sufficient
funds on hand to meet his cficial
liabilities. We also find the records,
called to the attention of TIE court
by the grand jury Of last year, have
all been properly and neatly indexed,
labled and filed away By the present
Judge Of Probate.
We fud the Clerk of Courts ofice
we'll kept, and we think special men
ton should be made of the complete
system of bookkeeping in his cffice,
showing the financial condition there
of with receipts, checks, &c. We
also find that be has ample funds on
hand to meet the liabilities Of his
Office.
We find upon examination of the
grand jury room, which is used in
connection with the Clerk of Courts
room, that there is case of very
valuable papers belonging to the cid
Court Of Equity, involving the par
t:tion and settlelent of a great
many estates, and which have much
