They Were Mrs. l.. {. KasselI Against
the Mayor and Aldermen.

the Mayor and Aldermen.
Two old certiorari cases, that have cum
bered for eight years the docket of the
Superior Court. were on trial yesterday
and arguments thereon heard by Judge
Fa.liganC. In both cases Mrs. l.. c. Kas-
sell is the plaintiff in certiorari and the
Mayor and aldermen of Savannah the de-
PENDANTS.
The cases grew out of the crusade
against Sunday liquor selling Inaugural ted
by Mayor McDonough in the early nine
ties. Mrs kassell was tried in the Police
Court, the Mayor presiding, on charges
of keeping open her place of business on
Sunday, May ~. and Sunday, June ?. 1891,
and was found guilty in each case. In
each case she was sentenced to pay a
fine of 500.
Both Of the cases were appealed to
Council, and the decision of the Mayor
sustained by a vote of to f. On June o.
1891, they were taken by writ of certiorarl
to the Superior Court, and among the
nusty records Of the Clerks office of that
tribunal, they have since remained, until
the papers in the case have become gray
with age. They have often been called
but there has never before been such a
response as would warrant their hearing
ard decision.
In the argument before Judge Falligant
the plaintiff was represented by Mr. j. r.
Saussy, Jr., and the defendants by Mr.
Samuel b. Adams, City Attorney The
points of law presented in the objections
OF the plaintiffs counsel 10 the legal posi-
ton Of the city, were argued in extenso
The points are close, some of them alb
struse, and they were all taken under ad-
Visement by the court Judge Falligant

FACTS FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS.

What is needed among amateurs is
more study and thought and not SO
many photographs.
Poor slides often make excellent COW
er glasses if they are free from bubbles
and well cleaned. Thus they are not
total losses.
Toning in photography means tint
ing or giving a slight change of color.
1t might just as well be called gliding,
for in the toning bath n thin layer of
gold is deposited on the surface of the
picture.
1t is n point to bear in mind in
slidemalling that slides which are just
right for lantern with oil light are all
wrong for the oxygen jet. Again, those
that are suitable for the latter are not
the finest for the electric light.
1t is a rule of photography that
breadths of shade should if possible be
linked together by other accidental
shadows, and the toning bath is some
times manipulated to put the desired
harmony there. This recalls the old
story of the artist who was asked what
the dog was doing in his picture.
"Why," said he, ''he is carrying the
light and shade through it,"
A marvel in the line of rapid pho

CHAPTER XVI.
A COUNCIL OF WAR.

As slipped through the wicket l
cast hurried glance around me, and
then, acting on the impulse of the mo-
ment, ran forwards along the road for
about so PAGES with Babette's dagger
clenched in my hand. There l was
brought TO stand by n dead wall,
studded with iron spikes at the top,
which rose sheer above me for fully
20 feet and barred all further progress.
1t was evident that the Toison dor
stood in blind alley, and that l had
taken the wrong turning. Not even an
ape could have scaled the moss-grown
and slippery surface OF those stones,
and, leaning against buttress in the
darkest corner of the wall, stood for
n moment or so and waited, determined
TO sell my life as dearly as possible
should / be pursued. There was no
sound, however; oil was still as the
grave. SO stole forth from the shadow
of the buttress, and, keeping the dagger
ready to strike, retraced my steps past
the Toison dor and along the winding
and crooked passage, keeping as far
away from the walls as possible to avoid
any sudden attack, until at last found
myself in n cross street, down which
went, taking note of such landmarks as
| could to guide me back. when should
return with vengeance in my right
hand. The cross street led into other
winding and twisting lanes, whose
squalid inhabitants were either fitting
up and down or quarreling amongst
themselves, or else sitting in a sullen
silence.
How long wandered in that maze OF
streets l cannot say, but at last came
upon an open space, and finding it more
or less empty stopped to take my bear
ings, My only chance to get back to my
lodging that highland it was all i'm
portant to do so-was to strike the Seine
at some point or other; but in what di-
rection the river lay could not, for the
life of me, tell. At last / determined to
steer by the moon, and holding her
track to the southwest OF me went on,
keeping as a landmark on my left the
tall spire of a church, whose name !
then did not know. So must have
plodded on for about an hour, until at
last L was sensible that the street
which l was in was wider than the 9th.
ers had passed through, and, finally, l
saw before me couple of lanterns, evil
