RELIABLE AND INTERESTING.
Legal Governor of Kentucky by the
Court of Appeals-Ex-Gov Taylor
VIII Appeal to the U. s. supreme Court
Gov. Taylor Turned Down.

The court of appeals of Kentucky on
the 9th handed down its decision in
the gubernatorial contest in favor of
Beckham, Judge Du Relic dissenting.
The other two Republican judges, Bar
nam and Guffy, handed down seper-
ate opinion, which differed in its rea-
sons from the opinion of the Democratic
judges, but agreed with them in its
conclusion. Judge Hobson, one of the
four Democratic judges, wrote the
opinion of the majority of the court,
affirming the decision of Judge Field,
of Louisville. The opinion holds that
the action Of the legislature in seating
Gov Beckham was final, and that the
court had no power to review it; that
Gov. Taylor exceeded his authority in
adjourning the legislature to London,
and that the journals of the two houses
of the legislature, being regular, can
not be impeached. 1t recites the work
of the state canvassing board, and of
the contest proceedings in the legisla-
ture and all subsequent proceedings.
Gov Taylor will appeal to the United
States supreme court.

looms in the last century have just
been purchased in Italy and brought
back to France by DR.. Henri de Roths-
child. who will add them to his cCl-

ing of artistic value, are of historic
interest, as they are gifts presented by
Louis Quinze to the Marquis de Grim
adj, the Spanish prime minister of
the time. They eventually became the
property Of the Portuguese family Do
Silva Carvalho, in whose palace at
Genoa they have hung for over a CEN
fury, and from whose descendants DR..
Henri de Rothschild purchased them
the other day. Three of the pieces are
reproductions by Coypel of scenes OF
Quinalt's play "Armide," on which
Gluck founded his opera, one bearing
the artists signature. The fourth de-
picts a scene from another OF Quinalts
plays. Copies of three Of these pieces
Of tapestry are preserved at the Louvre

Homberger Goes to Prison for Life.

After spending nearly II hours in
elaboration, the jury in the Henry
Edward Hamburger case returned u
verdict of guilty of murder in the first
degree, as charged, shortly after 10
o'clock on the night of the 5th. The
crime on which Hamburger was con-
victed was for the murder of John Nj.
Reindel at his bicycle shop on Girls
void street, Detroit, on the evening OF
Dec >, last.
The accused heard the verdict which
pronounced him guilty of murder in
the first degree and the sentence OF
Judge Murphy condemning him to
spend the remainder of his life in Jack
son, without making visible muscular
move. In fact, there was little or no
emotion displayed in the court room,
even the parents and sister who have
faithfully stood by the prisoner during
his long trial, enduring the abrupt end
of the frightful strain upon their
nerves without n murmer,
The prisoner stood with bowed head
while the Judge asked if he had any
thing to say. Not a word did he speak.

About II o'clock in the fornoOn of
the day following the sentence, Ham
berger made a desperate attempt at
self-de struction, by slashing his throat
and wrists in a frightful manner with
a razor. The wounds are considered
extremely serious, but the young mans
chances for recovery were brighter on
the morning of the 18th than they had
been at any time since the wounds
were inflicted. The razor with which
Hamburger attempted to end his life
belonged to fellow-prisoner, who had
been shaving himself. 1t is supposed
that Hamburger sneallcd out and stole
the razor and returned to his cell. The
attempt at suicide IS evidence of the
young mans sanity.

Monthly Crop Report.

The state crop report for March, is
sued by Secretary of State Stearns,
says that the weather during March
was cold. the average temperature for
the month being 22.S degrees This is
"a degrees below normal, thus making
it the coolest March since 1887, the
time when comparative records were
begun. The precipitation was 1.S0 in
ches for the state, this being "a below
normal. The ground was generally
well covered with snow during the
first half of the month. Later, this
was largely converted into water and
ice, and did much damage to wheat in
many places.
The average condition of wheat in
the southern counties was GO, central 20,
northern 20, and in the state Ga. These
figures indicate that the prospect for
an average crop of wheat is not us
good as IL was one year ago. Rains
are needed.
The number of weeks of protection
to wheat by snow was, for the southern
counties 2o2 weeks, for the central
800 weeks, for the northern 3. 3S weeks,
aud for the state 800 weeks The
average condition of meadows in the
southern counties was 81, in the cen
trail SO, in the northern %, and in the
state "a.
The average condition for the state
of horses and sheep was %, of cattle
and swine "a. A few diseases are re
ported, but none of an alarming ma
ture.
The total number of bushels of wheat
reported marketed by farmers in Marcel
at the Touring mills was 3s2, 446, and a
the elevators PA 600, or a total of 657,
O55 bushels. The total marketed il
the eight months, August-March, wa
5.554,316 which is 7,4s6,s4s bushel
less than reported marketed in th
same months a year ago. In mos
parts of the state there is a good pros
pect at the present time for fair GRO
of fruit.

Murdered Lad for Six Cents.

On the night of the sth two masked
men entered the house of Mrs. James
Warrack, an aged widow, five miles
south of GAINESVILLE, o. Living with
Mrs. Warrack were her granddaughter,
another young lady and her grandson,
Clarence Warrack. The women were
terrified when awakened by the threats
of the intruders, but young Warrack
on hearing the men, ordered them to
leave. A scuffle ensued in which War
rack was shot and killed. The bur
glars then bound the three women and
ransacked the house, but secured only
six cents in money.

validity of the Drain Law.

An important case was argued before
the supreme court on the Sd affecting
the validity of the drain law and the
cost of construction of thousands of
culverts running under railroad prop
erty throughout the state. In 1889
what is known as the Harris drain was
built in Windsor township, Eaton
county, running alongside the Chicago
g. Grand Trunk 1t was decided to
deepen, widen. and straighten the
drain in 1913. and the railroad company
was ordered by the drain commissioner
TO construct culvert under its tracks.
The cobpany sent in a bill for sl11.65,
claiming that the law was invalid and
that itst5roperty should be condemned
by proper proceedings so as to fix the
damages claimed. In the circuit court
the company was beaten.

MARSH CONVICTED.
The Verdict of the Jury was Unanimous
Accused Released on $4,000 Bail.

Guilty was the verdict of the jury in
the trial of Gen. Marsh, at o'clock on
the afternoon of the 5th. 1t was gem
orally expected and not even the de-
PENDANTS attorneys were surprised,
though privately they protested that
their client had not been justly dealt
with and that the supreme court would
reverse the case Marsh was later re-
leased on SIS, 900 bail pending review
of the case by the supreme court, The
jury was out just an hour and 90 MIN
utes, long enough to give the defense
expectations of n disagreement, but
their hopes were rudely shattered.
The offense for which Marsh was con-
victed is felony and the extreme pen
atty is ii years in states prison.
The most astonishing fact of the YER
dict is that the jurors had practically
no disagreement as to the facts OF the
case. They first elected their foreman
and then proceeded TO take the first
ballot, which resulted in ii votes being
cast for guilty and one for not guilty.
For an hour after they went over the
case very carefully, discussing the var
ious points and when the second ballot
was taken the decision was unanimous
that Marsh was guilty according to the
evidence. What kept the jury out SO
long was that five of them desired to
condition the verdict by recommending
the defendant to the mercy OF the
court, but after a protracted delibera-
ton this was also put aside and the
plain verdict of guilty rendered.
Judge Wiest's charge to the jury was
fair and impartial. He occupied about
two hours time in reading his charge.
Whatever thoughts passed through
the mind of Col. Sutton when he read
the verdict, he kept them strictly to
himself, but it evidently Jared on his
nerves, as he was pale and had little tc
say Sutton's request for change OF
venue was filed with the clerk OF the
court on the 9th, but at this writing
! had not been acted upon.

Tho Most Awful Explosion.

What is said to have been the most
terrific explosion ever known occurred
Feb. 10. 1896, near johannesburg, on
the Netherlands South Africa railway.
A train with some fifty-five tons OF
blasting gelatin and ninety cases or
detonators was standing on a siding
when it was inadvertently run into by
another train. The fearful energy OF
the liberated gases tore a huge trench
800 feet long, 80 feet deep and 60 feet
wide in the stiff clay soil; pieces OF
the engine were blown more than
mile away; upward of fifty people were
known to have been killed, while the
CHASTITY heap of mangled limbs, which
filled upward of twenty sacks, proba-
bly, accounted for many others who
were passing strangers and could not.
therefore, be identified at the time.
Needless to say, perhaps, all the ad-
Joining home property was reduced TO
matchwood and some 600 people were
rendered homeless.

Yellow Pine Giving Out.

pine plants in Georgia, South Carolina

mills belonging to the members of the
association would be run on two-thirds
time. This will affect thousands of
operatives and decrease the output
nearly one-third. 1t is understood that
the limited supply of yellow pine tim

action, as the association thinks prices

supply. Many of the larger mills have
only enough standing timber in sight
to last three or four years, while the
most fortunate report only a sufficient
amount in sight to run seven or eight
years
