THE burlesque on "Section 674" (Tustin's Code which was a feature of the entertainment at the Opera House, a few nights ago, was the source of much amusement, and was greeted with peals of laughter and thun- dars of applause, showing the odium in which Tustiu's Code is held by the people of Wrangel.

THE trial of Harry Kirshbauln in the District Court at Juneau, developed peculiar incident in connection with the Ante Mor- tenn statement of the indian Frank. This statement was pre- pared by Commissioner Tustin and was,declared by the court to be a curio. Introduction of the statement was refused on the ground that it was improperly drawn; and the refusal to admit it as evidence was undoubtedly the cause of the verdict This is another another evidence of Mir. Tustin's lack of legal ability. Without going into the merits of the case of man found gull ty of manslaughter, it seems to be great injustice to the people of Warngel to have Commits sioner who is incapable of pre- pairing simple statement in proper form for admission as evidence. If the life and liberty of our citizens is to be in the hands of a man devoi l of know ledge of the law, an wholly without any principla of man. hood, then is our position hazar dous in the extreme. If Harry kirShbaum had been tried under Tustin's Code, i e. 'Section 674' it is quite possible that Attorney @ Tustin should have been able to show some limited know ledge of the law as the frequent use of Section 674" has possi- bly, made him conver,ant with it's provisions. To have so emin- ent a jurist as Judge C. $. John son pass on a legal document and declare it a curiO is great reflection on tho Attornay @ drawing the instrument, and should result in his deing disbar- red from practicing in any court. The knowledge of the fact that F. P. Tustin is poor lawyer is not anything new in Wrangel. The surprise is that anybody should think otherwise. MT. Tustin did not come here fol his health alone. A carpet-bag politician who is incapable o1 making a living out of office is always a grafter when the op portunity presents It's If; and the constant study of devising ways and means to extOrt fees occu pies his time to the exclusion o+ everything else.

BROTHERHOOD OF ST. ANDREW.
REV. f. W. CLANPETT, OF BAITI-
MORE, PREACHED AN INTER-
EsTING SERMON AIT TRINITY.

An interesting sermon was preached
last evening by Rev. f. w. Clampett,
of st. Peters Church, Baltimore, at
Trinity Church, TO the members of
Wilmington Assembly, Brotherhood Of
St. Andrew.
In the course of his sermon the
speaker drew vivid contrasts between
heaven aid he'll, and he held the close
attention OF the congregation. He
took for his text the first epistle of
ST. Paul TO the Corinthians, iii, 3.
Failure to know God destroys the
capacity to know and love Him." he
said. I'VE are not to wait for a flu
ture life to enjoy heaven. Heaven is
here. The era Of a sensual heaven,
with golden steps and streets OF gold
Is past. Heaven is having the spirit
with us now. Think of Lady Macbeth
wandering thromgh the castle locking
at her hand I'm the dark to see II the
clot OF blood is there That clut was
King Dumcan's blood, and al th;
waters CT the AtlanItic ocean could rlor
wash ii away. That is hell. Now lool
at heaven. Lock at man going to Tx
Lord, looking up into his face and say.
ing: Father, have mercy on me; us,
me for Thy purposes, and do with ms
as Thy WIN o, what glory is this
This is heaven"

count OF earlier primaries. Ats list closes
first
In contrast to the Republicans, the
Democrats present almost undivided
ranks for the fray in June next. The
party viii stand together at the city
election as It has not done for years and
Democratic success is looked forward to
as certain.
The three candidates for mayor, Dr.
Fahey, DR.. Hitch and Jesse X. Bayh-,
are each working hard for the nominal
ton, though from present indications
Fahey appears to be In the lead. Pat
rick Neary, the Sphinx, has at last de-
clared himself, and when asked who the
Democrats would nominate, for mayor,
replied: "Dr. Tahey, without doubt"
Continuing, Mr. Neary added that Dr..
F'ahey was a good man for the place,
and Is making the hardest fight
Mr.. Neary has been considered the
leader Of the opposition to DR.. Fahey.
and his remark is taken to mean the
collapse Of the anti Fahey movement, in
the Democratic panty. Fahey men de-
clare that Mr.. Neary became convinced
that the opposition to Dr. Tahey was
of no avail
DR.. Hitch is not asleep in his corner
by any means, and Is carrying the war
into the enemies camp, and in a quiet
way is said to have made deep inroads
into their lines. The doctor is making
good fight, and his following viii be
felt on nomination day.
Jesse X. Baylls Is not I'm the back
ground by any means though his can
didacy does not appear to have the force
Of those Of his opponents. For president
Of Council, Dennis +. Leary and w. s.
Alexander are both candidates, and the
chances are that It win be close finish
between them.
An the Democrats ait present seated In
Council are candidates for reelection
with the exception Of Mr.. Leary, and
from present prospects an win be re-
turned In the Fourth ward James
Kane has no opposition, the same being
the case with John e. Healy, Of the
Tenth. Michael J. Cannon. Of the Sec.
ond. is opposed by Dennis Carr, but Mi.
/ chaels friends declare he will have q
walk-over. In the Third ward Thomas
b. Monaghan and James Harklns viii
\ fight II out. In the Eleventh ward Harry
/ Smith Is opposed by Robert McKenna
and George Bradford with chances IN
favor of the former. Jonathan W
Groves Is candidate IN the Eighth
and james b. Oberly in the Twelfth 4.
opposed by DR.. McColley. Anton Haubei
Is The first candidate to offer his name
for Council from the Fifth ward to tn,
committee appointed In that ward to Sc
leot a candidate
Michael J. Kelley wants to be assessor
and collector in the Southern district
and james McKelvey is ON lOobou
for similar position in the Northern
district
From present prospects the ticket nom
mated ON May 10 next will be carried {,
vb.ory In June.
