sale of Liquof.

Washington Special New York Times: A decision of Justice Brewer has been raked up which may enabie druggists to sell some kinds of liquor in communities under the control of the federal government where such practices are supposed to be prohibited The District of Columbia Pharmaeeu- tical Association has been trying to find out how it can prevent the sale of certain kinds of malt extracts, and has been enlisting the aid of the dis triet government As result of the investigation of the legal aspect of the question it has been found that the act of congress regulating the sale 0! intoxicating liquors contains no def. milton of intoxicating liquors. An opinion given by the district attorney cites an old decision of Justice Brewer holding that the question whether any particular compound is within or with out ths jaw is a question of fact,

------------- surnames h Ireland.

One of the curiosities of recent philo- logical literature is the appendix to the 1893 report of the British registrar general, which bears the suggestive ti- tie, "Surnames in Ireland" From that compilation one who has an eye for the curious may glean facts and figures for q most interesting article. For in- stance it is shown that the most con- mon name on the Emerald Isle is Mur- phy, the number of persons, great and small, who bear the eognomen being e2, 600.

A Singular CAae,

4 singular case has just been decided In Germany after occupying nearly s year in trial. When Prince Bismarck died, two Hamburg photographers bribed a watcher in the room to allow them to take d fash-light picture of the dead chancellor They tried to sell the photograph, but the Bismarck family interfered. The photograph itself furnished the evidence which convicted the persons concerned. The men who took the picture did not
 notice a clock on the wall. which was reproduced in the photograph, and re- corded the exact moment when the view was taken. It was known who was on watch at that moment, and the faithless watcher gave the names of the photographers. The pictures have been 'esst the photographers

MICE HAVE A STANDING lNLAu
They Figured in Recent Contest Over
 Land Ownershfp


 Land Ownership
 From the Spokane Review: The land-contest case in which a family of mice played prominent part has been decided on the appeal to Binger Hermann, commissioner of the gen eral land office at Washington. The rodents are not mentioned in the deei- slon, but the man whom it was claimed allowed the mice to establish a resi- 1enee h his bed Is allowed to retain possession of his homestead. the rul. ing of the local land office being re- Yersed and the contest dismissed. A peculiar feature of the case is that when the family of mice was first men, toned It was tended that their presence in the bed of the entryman argued an abandonment of the home. stead, and tba local land office appar- antly took the same view of the mat. ter. But when the decision was ap. pealed from it was set up that the presence of the mice was an argument in favor of the homesteader. Fred 0 Grutt was tbe entryman, having taken dp a homestead near Davenport three years ago. Last August John O'Neil instituted a contest to the homestead entry, alleging that Grutt had aban- doned the claim, did not keep up a continuous residence thereon. and that the only inhabitants of the shanty on the ranch were a family of mice After hearing the case the registrar and receiver decided that Grutt's en. try should be eanee1ed.= From this de- cision Grutt had sixty days in which to file an appeal to the commissioner at Washington. The appeal was filed by Leo Walton, attorney for Grutt In the appeal the mice family was re- ferred to as follows: "If there were any mice in this entryman's bed dur- ing the early part of September. 1898. it plainly shows that the entryman did have bed on the land at the time.

MADE NO APOLOGY.
Denial of the Report That Lord Sails
bury Had Expressed Regret for
the Macrum Incident

London, March 2s.-The report, pub
lished in the United States, that Lord
Salisbury had apologized for the open
ing of American consular mail in
South Africa is untrue. Nothing what
ever has passed between the two gov
ernments on this matter, and the Brit
ish premier has taken no action to in
vestigate the allegations of Charles E.
Macrum, former consul of the United
States at Pretoria. nor has he been
requested to do so.
Washington, March 2S.-It is said at
the state department, regarding the
story that Great Britain has apollo
gized to this government for the ac-
ton of the censor in opening letters
addressed to the United States consul
at Pretoria, that the United States
government has made no demand upon
the British government for an apol-
ogy, as the officials say that Mr..
Macrum, who was consul at Pretoria
when the mail is said to have been
opened, made no official complaints
on that subject and thus the state de-
partment had nothing official before
1T to serve as basis for demand for
an apology.

NEW MILITARY DIVISION.
Secretary Root Creates One in tn,
Philippines to he Known as the
division of the Pacific"

Washington, March 2s.-Secretary
Root has taken a step long contem-
plated in the administration of the
Philippines by directing the creation
OF an entirely new military division
to be known as the "Division of the
Pacific" embracing all of the Philip
pine archipelago. The division in turn
is to be divided into four military de-
partments as follows: The depart
ment of northern Luzon, commanded
by Gen. MacArthur; the department
OF southern Luzon. commanded by
Gen. Bates; the department. of the
Viscayas. commanded by Gen. Hughes,
and the department OF Minandano and
Jolo. commanded by Gen. Kobbe.
Maj. Gen. Otis will retain the supreme
command over these departments as
division commander, occupying to-
ward them a position corresponding
closely to that occupied by Gen. Miles
toward the military departments in
the United States. 1t is said at the
war department that the purpose of
the new order of things is to free
Gen. Otis of the many minor details
incident to the administration of the
islands. leaving him at liberty to de-
vote more time to larger questions of
policy and civil administration.

numbers. AT the same time numer-

they were very harmonious is4 their
deliberations, not even talking loud
enough for the ladies to hear.
After the meeting they all took sup

there was never telephone in exist
