Sitting Criminal Cases.

District Attorney d. w. Shipman,
of Northum berland county, has be-
gun a crusade against the system Of
sitting of important criminal cases
before they reach the courts for trial
that cannot fail to have widespread
effect throughout the state. He has
begun by striking at the root of the
evil by warning Justices Of the Peace
who occupy place in the minor
judiciary of the rural districts cores
ponding to that of police magistrates
in the cities, that he will prosecute
them for compounding felonies if
they assist in sitting justice by pre-
venting criminal cases from reaching
the regularly instituted courts.
The District Attorney has dis
tributed list of cases in which JUS
tices of the Peace have special juris-
diction to try defendants before jury
of six and impose sentence, together
with an exposition of the law relative
to the settlement of criminal cases.
He states that heretofore most OF
the justices have not complied with
the rules of the court and the law in
the return of criminal cases. Great
complaint is made that petty cases
get into court, and the cases in which
the public are interested, and that
have real merit in them, are com
promised and settled before many Of
the Justices for a money considera-
ton and the payment Of costs.
"All felonies and high-grade misde
neanors cannot be settled by or be
fore a Justice without his incurring
the risk of being indicted for com
pounding. Ny information is that il

Clarke, Fred Clarke and James Bowen,
of Bethel, Me-, lost their lives in Lake
Umbagoa, a body of water located in

BROUGHT BACK FROM THE CRAVE.
Last November Mr.. Joseph James,
painter, of 325 w. Pearl ST., Indianapo-
lis, Ind, was at DEATHS door with quick
consumption. Wasted to a skeletons;
his lungs a mass of liberation; his
death was hourly awaited by his doctor
and family. He was kept in a constant
stupor with opium. A friend, thinking
to relieve his terrible cough, gave him a
bottle of Brazilian Balm. Seeing its
wonderful effect, the doctor advised its
continued use. Mr.. James soon after
dismissed his doctor, and depended
on the Balm alone. His recovery was
rapid and complete, and in February he
returned to work. His lungs are sound,
and his weight greater than at any time
in his life. His recovery is regarded as
almost a miracle.
