achieved by the Elness from which the emperor of Russia is now recovering. Un.il now there has always been a doubt as to the precise degrSe of influ- ence which the cZarina exercised on the affairs of Russia and even upon her husband, and while some took the ground that she played an important role. the majority were inclined to look upon her intellectual powers as over ra.tsd and upon herself as a woman of infinitely less importance, politically, speaking, than either the widowed em- press or even the Grand Duchess Vlad- imir.
 All misapprchensions on the subject have, however. now been dispelled. The young impress has shown herself to be possessed of master mind quite capa- be of holding her own in moments of crisis, and fully the equal in statecraft to those of other cZarinaS of the last century to whom Russia is so deeply indebted for lner gran55 5ur.-Marquise de Fontenoy in Washington Post.

debate which preceded the vote was in- terrupted by uproar and explosions of passion, showing that the old Dreyfus and anti-Dreyfusite wounds are still sensible.
 Deputy Breton, despite the protests of the president, persisted in naming the various generals and others whom he considered guilty of getting up the D"eyfus case. He declared that ex- Minister Moline had been aware of Col. Henry's forgery. and he denounced him as a traitor.
 NJ Moline tried to reply, but he was 'mperfeotly heard owing to the up roar.
 NJ. Bretsn's pro-Dreyfusism was counterbalanced by M. MlHevnye. who declared that the legal truth is that Dreyfus is a traitor. He was a traitor when he was arrested, is traitor still, and d traitor will remain. M. Mile voye also taunted General Andre. min- ister ct war, with lacking a soldiers 8 spirit. General Andre made no reply.
 Prime Minister Waldeck- Rousseau made a dignified speech appealing to the house not to revive the discords of Glt. past.

TO PRISON FOR LIFE.
George Vineyard Given Ninety-nine
 Years for Murder.

A sentence of ninety-nine years in the penitentiary was imposed by Judge Wofford yesterday upon George Wine gard for the murder of William Simp- son. Vineyard was clean shaven and neat in appearance. but quite pale, when he stood up in the courtroom to receive the sentence. When Judge Wofford asked him whether he had anything for himself, Vineyard said: No, sir-nothing to say at present"
 Your lawyer made a good defense for you" said the judge, and you made a good impression upon me. I don't believe you are a bad man. You enlisted my sympathy more than any man ever tried before me on a charge of so grave a nature as this"
 Judge Wofford paused a moment ani the prisoner shifted his weight from one foot to the other What the judge was saying evidently encouraged him

greatly, for his face frightened as the judge went on:
 This tl..-s,' the judge resumed, was undoubtedly the result of whisky. Had you been sober, it wouldn't have been done at all. You were simply in- toXicated, crazy drunk, and in that condition you killed this man.
 "The evidence shows that Simpson was an inoffensive sort of man. I'm satisfied that Simpson was a pretty good man. His wife is a good woman. The witnesses in this case were unu- sually good witnesses"
 There was another pause in which the prisoner looked inquiringly at the judge and the judge seemed to be won dering what he should say next.
 How old are yOu?" he asked finally.
 ''I am 39.''
 Where were you born?'
 Wisconsin
 Are you a German"
 No sir. My name sounds like it. but I am not. My father and mother were raised in New York state. My father was a miller. He was killed in the war. My mother" and the prison CTS voice trembled slightly, "died ten years ago.
 Then the prisoner told of his four teen years on the road, as a travelling saleman of his brother. who is in bus mess in Wisconsin. and of the practi- cal education he had picked up as a travelling man.
 "There is nothing I can say to man like you,' the judge said in conclusion. Its no use to tell you that you ought ,At at SJ Mo- that to the end of time. Whisky is all right. There is nothing wrong with whisky. Neither is there anything wrong with morphine, or chloroform or arsenic or opium-it's the misuse of these things that's wrong. Have you nothing more to say?" the court again inquired
 No, sir, nothing"
 ''Tahen it is the judgment of this court that you be imprisoned in the state penitentiary for a period of nine ty-nine years"
 Vineyards lawyer, J. H. McVay, an nounced that he would appeal the case to the supreme court. Before the sen tence was pronounced he argued a mo- tion for a new trial, contending that several omissions and other errors made the instruction for manSlaughter and self-defnse nugatory. The judge held that even if the instructions under these heads were faulty it made no difference since the jury imposed the penalty of murder in the second degree and therefore had no occasion to refer to the instructions for the lesser de- grees of crime
 The judges rulings anu the manner of them angered Attorney McVay so that he finally exclaimed: "These in structions are as good as no instruc- tions at all. They are absurd. No au- thority for them can be found any where. Either in the Roman civil law, in the law of England or in the law of this state and time. I have been prac1 ticing law ten years and this is the first time I ever ran up against as.y- thing like this"
 You'll probably run up aganist a good many such things before you're through" said Judge Wofford. i've been practicing thirty years, and I'm still running up against new things Kansas City Journal.

NO ASSURANCE FROM ENGLAND.
Has net Agreed to Accept Canal Treaty
 Amended as Proposed.

Washington, D "a. "A prominent official of che state department said to- day that there is no foundation what ever for the story that this government has received assurance from that of Great Britain that the canal conveu pending amendment, will be accepted by the British cabinet. No such prom ise, suggestion or intimation has ever reached the state department from any official source, and the department dO-s not know what action the British gov ccnment would take in the event that the pending treaty is amended IS pro- posed. Every intimation, however, that has reached here, goes to show that the adoption of any amendmert would be regretted by the British au- thorities.
 Through misunderstanding or some ether reason, the impression was con- veyed to the public. as d result of the proceedings in secret session in the sen a.e yesterday in connection with the treaty, thsi. Secretary Hay had stated that he would resign his office if the pending Davis amendment to the Hay PauncefOte treaty was adopted. The secretary's exact attitude in this matter was purely negative. He simply stated that he had never threatened the s-n- ate or any other authority to resign his office if certain actions were not taken respecting the treaty; he did not prom iss to remain if it were amended he did not threaten to quit.

TRYING TO MAKE $4O.

Here is a hard luck story which Vic tor Smith tells apropos of efforts to make a little sum in Wall street: A young man started with $400 and ran it up to S9960 or $40 less than an even $10000. The desire to round out the $1O,OOO goaded him on. He said to his broker: If I can make that additional $40 on a quick turn I will draw out my S1OOOO and invest it in real estate" It was a strong bull market but things appeared sky high, and he picked out an active stock to sell short He landed on Tennessee Coal and Irron, which had had a phenomenal rise, and was due to drop aywhere from ten to fifty points. He sold 100 shares at par, in tending to close it out at 99. But in stead of going down the blamed thing scared to 126. At every three points gain he sold another 100. until he was carrying all he could tote. In twenty
 four hours he lost nearly every cent it had taken him three months to make. With what little he had left he bought T. I. on the recession to 116, friends as
 surfing him it was going to 15O. Then came the fireworks and the funeral The bottom feI out and young Dr. Knowall found himself $l5,000 in debt. He hasn't been in Wall street since.

PRIVATE PROPERTY FOR PUBLIC
 DEBTS.

A half-forgotten state law in Maine permits the seizure of real or personal property of any inhabitant of a town which is unable to pay it's debts. A Bangor attorney obtained a judgment against the town of Otis and sent an officer to collect. Finding the town treasury empty, the officer proceeded under the statute mentioned and seized a yoke of oxen belonging to one of the selectment and a dozen cows belonging to other citizens. Other creditors threaten similar action.
