The Warn process consists in treat
ing the cloth with a preparation that
makes it impervious to moisture, and
retentive of the heat that may be gen
Grated under the tents or covering
The process also preserves the fibre
against rot.
Mr.. Warn has also designed a simple
and effective frame for stretching the
cloth on for orange tree protection.
There is no patent or royalty on this
part of Mr.; Warns invention.
The tents are made of 81a o., and

tent. He cuts the muslin in lengths
of eight feet on one side and eleven
on the other side, and when it is sewed
together makes tent with perpendicu-
lar sides eight feet high, cone-shaped
top. He leaves one seam to the height
of eight feet open, so as to slip over
the tree. Whenever cold snap is ap-

one man, to place those tents over his
trees. The tent will be supported by
the branches of the tree. His lamps

chimney seven inches high and three
inches in diameter, with a four-inch

to place these tents over his trees

D4TTTT AGAINST DREYFCS.

The part Of the fly in the amber Is played by
Mr.. Michael Davitt. The voice Of the civilized
world Is raised. more unanimously than ever
before in any such case. in protest against the
Rennes verdict and in sympathy with its victim.
But Mr. Davtt dissents He comes before the
public with profession Of belief in the guilt Of
Captain Dreyfus. He does not 1t is true, base
this upon the evidence. The grounds OF his he
lief are twofod First. no entirely innocent
man was ever convicted twice by jury OF his
peers: and. second. the French army officers
are incapable Of such injustice, for are they not
all honorable men:
The record would probably show that Mr..
Davitt's first point is not we'll taken. Perhaps
his own case may not be citable against it. for
his two convictions were not on the same
charge. We not sure that he would admit
that his convictions effected by his peers.
Indeed he may not even claim that he was
absolutely innocent of treason-fclony against
the British Crown: but let that pass II is
sufficient answer to his arguments to call to
mind the fact that some of these honorable
gentlemen. who could not "stoop to basencss,"
confessed that they had committed perjury and
forgery and perversion of justice. And it may
be added that in no civilized country hitherto
has II been deemed necessary to resort to per-
jury and forgery and corruption of judges or
Jurors in order to convict a really guilty man.
Mr. Davitts outburst against Captain Dreyfus
will not ALLEVIATE one particle of the worlds
sympathy from that much suffering officer. 1t
will cause widespread surprise that one who
has himself suffered so much from what he
deemed unjust Imprisonment should have no
sympathy with similar but greater sufferer:
1,n..
raised in behalf Of his own people. whom he
considered oppressed should join and applaud
the enemies Of another still more oppressed

rupts income under the will OF his grandfather.
Charles A. Baudouine In his petition OF bank.
ruptcy. filed on March 81. John r. Baudoune said
he had vested interest IN one-quarter OF the es-
tate OF his grandfather. and moreover contingent
interests. He averred that trustee. he had no
right to divert any portion Of the trust money 10
the payment OF claims Of creditors. The counsel
opposing the motion yesterday argued that all pay
ments Of trust funds made after tho fling Of the
petition were exempt from claims OF creditors II
was shown upon examination that Baudou!ne's In.
come from one-quarer interest in his grandfathers
estate Is $4,000 a year. and that he receives an
additional income from the business Of the estate.
Judge Brown ruled that. under Section 81 OF the
Revised Statutes. though the interest In such trust
could not be transferred by the beneficiary to an
other, the surplus beyond what Is necessary for
the support OF the beneficiary may be appropr!ated
to the claims Of the creditors.

pains TO extract some Of the choice portions
from his speech made on Thursday before the

will be n revelation TO persons who have, been

His method IS rather conversational than
stilted, and for freshness Of phrase and d.
rectness of method It seems to us something on
