Jnckson.-The record in criminal
case appealed from the circuit court
of Montgomery county having very
unsual feature attached, has been re-
ceived Ly the clerk of the supreme
conrt. The case is styled William
Caffey VS.. the State and the appellant
ia fccused of the murder of his cousin,
Wa-h Ca fey, in that county about &
year ago. At the trial plea of guilty
to the overt. crime -as entered, but
the attorneys for the defense set up
the plea that the prisoner was an
ppileptic at the time Of the crime and
was not morally responsible. The
chief test mony in support of the con-
tention was that gwen by DR.. G. Y.
GiIlispie of Winonn, who sta ed that
the prisoner had been subject to fits
Of epilepsy and that while in such a
condition be was not capable OF dis
tinguishing right from wrong, and
that his stage for epilep-y resembled
. person under hypnotio influence.
Other evidences was adduced to show
that the prisoner bore no ill will
against the man whom he murdered
and the jury brought in a verdict OF
not guilty based on the grounds that
the prisoner was insane at the time.
In acc ordarce with this verdict the
court ordered that Chaffsy be con-
fined in the State insane asylum.
His attorneys appealed from this YER
dict on the ground that while he was
insane when the murder was commit
ed he is at present OF sound mind.

wARNs AGAINST CAPE NOME.


a great deal has been written lately
about the fabulous riches OF Cape
Nome. For that reason the following
extract from communication to the
Denver Post may not be without in
terest The afiter claims 10 have visit
ed the country and found 1t every
fhlng but a paradise for gold hunters.
He says
NOW before | close, I will say a few
words about the latest humbug and
swlndle--Cape Nome pronounced
Nomay. from the Indian word hOpe).
I have been over every yard OF that
Cape Nome beach, and | could not ind
even colors In my gold pan, let alone
nuggets and fabulous strikes OF placer
gold, such as we have seen published
from time 20 time In the papers
throughout the land. There never has
been one ounce Of gold. either fine gold
or nuggets, found on that Cape Nome
beach, unless they have been put there
by parties directly connected with this
great transportation swindle that will
rob thousands OF poor. hard-working,
honest people OF the few dollars they
have saved after years Of toll.
MY advice To all who 20 there Is TO
be sure and take enough money to
bring them back to Gods country. for
they win find when II Is too late, that
they have been swlndled, and there
viii be no redress Tor them only to
come back and start all over again to
save every penny to make up for the
time lost In the wild chase after
wealth which did not exist

THAT LYNCHING'

The latest lynching bee In West VIZ
gluia appears to have been a specially
cold.blooded. savage and unjustihabie
affair. The colored victim was sure to
have been punished by due process Of
law. and there was absolutely no need
Of resortlng to murder. But after the
deed bad been committed, the mob, II
seems, was Wild with bloodihrst, and
demanded one more victim. One was
not enough to appease the craving for
blood. And SO white prisoner was
killed, who now is believed 10 have
been innocent.
The Withdrawing OF the troops at the
request Of the frantic mob was about
the most discouraging feature OF the
entire proceeding. because that proved
the existence Of a condition which
makes further outrages possible. When
the executive power OF state can be
enlisted IN the service Of mob, there
Is but little prospect Of the prevalence
OF civilized conditions
The fact that the press OF Weft Vir-
einia condemns the outrage committed
Is a good sign. But after all, the ques-
ton IL, win the perpetrators of the
crime be hunted down and treated ac-
cordlng TO law? Protests are all right
as far as they go, but vigorous action
Is needed not words. Why do not the
very tender-hearted, conscience haunt
ed, Christian" people Of the United
state, commence crusade" against
murder and other evils that threaten
the yery fundamental Institutions OF
the country?

According to DR.. Howard, Lapiand

where the pestiferous insect does most
flourish. DIR. Howard points out that
in Lapland the flight of mosquitoes is
comparable only to q fall of snow, and
that in the neighborhood OF the Crimea
the Russian soldiers often die of NOR

and may be frequently found during

is firm believer in the theory that
an ounce of prevention Is worth a
