THE DOWNFALL OF LEWIS.

Much interest Centers in the
present term of the Northumber-
land County Court. wnere Charles R
Lewis, ore of the most prominent mon
of the county, is about TO be tried for
incendisrism. He is now in the Heaths-
Vile Jail, charged with burning the
oyster canning factory Of T. II. Fallin,
q neighbor, On the COsn YER.
Wnen a capitalist some years AGO.
Lewis wss granted by the Virginia As
sembly, through the aid OF Influential
Law yers at Northern Neck, the right o.
Hog Island flats, consisting of several
nun ired acres of valuable natura
oyster lands. A howl was raised by
the oystermen, who petitioned for tue
repeal of the grant, aud this was done.
in part. Lewis spent fortune IN
planting what was left, but the mex
legislature took away his remaining K
rights.
Lewis at that time operated on 3
broarder scale than WAS ever witnessed
in Northumberland county.
His town OF Lewisetta, at the junction
of the Potomac and Coan rivers, grow,
from an almost barren mOrass, 10 possess
large oyster packing houses, canning
factories, shops, aad other enter
prises; line of passenger steamers was
put upon the Potomac river TO ply b. =
tween Baltimore and Washington, and
among the number was the fine
steamer Potomac, now owned by the
Weems Steamboat Company, and bui
IN Philadelphia by order OF Mr.. Lewis.
Fishing steamers were also numbered
among his personal effects, and many
sail vessels were at his command, 10
dredge and take oysters from his exten-
sive grounds.
The Hog Island fiasco was his first
setback. DepredstioDs on his oyster
flats followed, and several persons were
shot. His properties were mysterious
ly destroyed by fire; his employees would
strike, and with pistol or gun in hand,
be would qdelI the disturbance.
Even coDstables and sberitis were
outwitted and sometimes blutfed by
him. Commonwealth's attorneys and
other lawyers were sent messages from
him that they would be killed if theg
did not let up on him. His goods were
seized and attached in Virginia and
Baltimore, and he, too, was several
times arrested, but he always managed
TO 90 free, until now.
1t is said that several more charges
are now pending against him.

HEAT FROM THE SUN.-A method OF
using the heat of the sun 10 the place
of coal and wood has been perfected by
DR.. WIN. Calver. of Washington, to
such a degree that it is now proposed to
make a practical test of it on large
scale. A company has been formed for
the purpose of using the heat OF the sun
to furnish steam power for irrjgating
purposes in the arid lands OF the south
western part of the country. The in'
yentor OF this method OF producing heat
has been experimenting along these
lines for the past 25 years, and 10 his
laboratory the apparatus which he uses
is in operation whenever the sun shines.
DR.. CaIver has also thought out plan
of supplying heat on cloudy days when
the sun is not visible, and he proposes
to accomplish this by storing up the
heat in a reservoir from which he can
draw it as it is needed. He says heat
can be stored just as cold in the form OF
ice is stored. However, his invention
is a means of utilizing the heat from the
sun. and, as is broadly stated, it is by
the use of mirrors. which are 30 ar
ranged that heat from the suns rays
are gathered up and focused at one
point.

party. The same courtesy which had
characterized his work as practitioner
won for him hosts of friends as legisla-
tor even from the opposition, and at the
close of the session he was appointed
Judge Of the Hobozen District Court. This
office he resigned upon his election to the
Senate in 1892.
The election which resulted in the choice
of Judge DAILY to the Senate was won at
ter a most exciting compaign j. Herbert
| Potts, a man of great strength and popu-
| larity, was nominated on the Republican
ticket, but Mr.. DAILY had such a hold on
| the popular heart that he was trium-
phantly elected by 5,645 plurality He was
reelected in 1885 by plurality of 1859
over ex-Assemblyman Max Salinger, the
Republican nominee.
During his six years service in the SEN
ate he gained a high reputation as leg
lslator, and Tor more than half that per-
lod ne was the leader of his party on the
moor. He made brilliant record in 1885
when the riparian rights question was be-
iore the Senate during his opposition to
the creamery Trust and while serving as
member of the Special Investigating
committee of the Senate During the
residential campaign of 1896 he rendered
his party valuable service on the stump
ana also as member OF it's State Com
mlttee He was a prominent candidate
Tor the Democratic Gubernatorial nomi-
nation in 1898, and would have received a
majority of the votes of the convention

in the nick of time in favor of the opposi-
ton candidate. Still, despite his disap-

election of Mr. Elvin w Crane, the norai-
nee. Mr.. Daily was elected to Congress
by plurality of 10,10S, the largest ever
given to a candidate for Congress in the
district
It is seldom that a representative In
Congress achieves any distinction during
ms ilrst term, and those who achieve any
public prominence are those who have
represented their districts for several
terms The session of Congress which Mr..
Daty was member had scarcely begun
Its deliberations when he became almost a
national character. The bills which he
introduced and the speeches which he de-
hvered upon the leading questions of the
day demonstrated that he was far above
the average of Congressman and a man Of
ability
Ills work was early recognized by the
leaders and he became prominent in the
councils of his party. AT the recent
Democratic convention held at Kansas
City, as member of the Committee on
Resolutions, he took an active part in
framing the platform and was largely in.
strumental in making the anti-imperialism
plank the paramount issue. Mr.. DAILY is
survived by a widow and a son.

door of the Hudson County Bank was this
morning held without bail for further ex-

Receiving Teller Farrier of the Hudson
County National Bank went to Police
Heaquarters yesterday afternoon to iden-
tify the thief. He told Chief Murphy be.
fore he saw the man that he would know
his face if he sawb again and would know
the man by his legs. He said he noticed
a popularity when the thief was running
away. Six other men and Kril were lined
up against the wall in the Chiefs Office
and Mr.. Farrier was called in He look

pointed Kril out as the man. He said he
knew the face. Chief Murphy then asked
the men to turn their backs to Mr. Far

necessary for Mr.. Farrier to recognize the
mans back.

cation, is very strong against kril.
The Chief had figured that Krat would
have to save all the money he got in
order to have $3.50.
Mr.. Ruggles said that when Kril went
into the bank he had a companion who
seemed to be instructing him as to how
to open an account. Kril, after much
trouble and explanation succeeded in
opening an account, taking the $3.50 from
a big bundle of money. He had trouble
counting the money, first adding to one
division of the bills from the other and
then undoing what he had done. The
$3.50 seemed to be only small part Of
all the money Kril had.

RESISTED AN OFFICER
Albert Sanders on Trial for Refusing
to Re Arxestef3.

Albert Sanders, sheep butcher, of
Newark, was placed on trial in the Special
Sessions this morning for resisting the
majesty of the law as embodied in the
person of Policeman James Roach of
Kearny. On July the police of Kearny
received request from the slaughter
house of the Newark Beef Company to
send a policeman there. According to the
story told by Roach on the stand when
he got to the slaughter house he found
Sanders asleep. He woke him up and
told him he was under arrest. The man
resisted arrest and the policeman found
it necessary to cut three gashes in his
head with his club.
William c. Opie, superintendent of the
slaughter house, and several other wit
nesses testified that Sanders came to the
slaughter house under the influence of
liquor and Opie refused to let him go to
work Sanders then caught him around
the neck and threatened him with bodily
harm.
Sanders, on the stand, denied resisting
the officer or assaulting Opie, and Judge
Blair reserved his decision.
