A PERFECTLY NATURAL COURSE.
How the Chinese Questions are Re-
 Earded at Washington.

Washington, Dec. 30.-It is reeog. nized by the officials here as a per fectly natural course on the part Of the Chinese government to ask for explanations of the important points in the agreement reached by the min isters at Pekin, so they are not sur. prised to hear now, that before blind. ly accepting the agreement as bind. ing upon it, the Chinese court wishes for some definite statement as to what Chinese cities are to be oeea- pied, how long the occupation is tc continue, whether it is an absolute condition that the princes are to be beheaded and whether the Taku forts are to be razed or whether dis mantlement will not suffice. IL is a fact that our government has from the beginning of negotiations taken an attitude on these five points of in. quiry closely corresponding to thai which it is supposed the Chinese xov. ernment has assumed as basis of putting them.

The I,ilrrn nNIilAfnw-

8n importantsfnIl.S was made in supreme court on the three mile law. The opinion was leliIeHed by Justice Riddiek.
 E. J. Morton and others filed a petition with Re county court of Gle hurne county asking that the Rle of liquor be prohibited within Ehree miles of the .Reber high spool. Wine county judge made this endorsement tirefy~ on appeal to fhe circuit count the petition was granted and the sale of liquors within that dis. trict was prohibited. The circuit court refused to HaEe the county a party to the proceedings on petition of the county judge, to which refusal the county excepted and appealed to the supreme &urt.
 In his obinian MT. Justice Riddiek said The gSsunty judge had the right to appeal, as by section 1270 of the digest it is provided that the county judge eshall defend appeals from that cdArt to the circuit court This includes the right of appeal Nor was il necessary that either the county or the county judge should be made party to the proceedings in the circuit court in order to exer. else that right It is eontended that the circuit cours had no jurisdiction of the ease because the county court did not make an order in the case that could be appealed from and be cause the record does not show any affidavit for an appeal
 As to the safIidavit the county j2dge could ,SSknd the appeal in the circuit cout->#ithin being formally made a party lso it was not necessa ry. AS they Vailed to move the cir. cult court to dismiss the appeal for want of an affidavit. it is too late 10 make the objection here.
 It seems doubtful if the county juGge made a final order in the case bat we hold that in endorsing the pc tition ignored entirely, he refused tho prayer of and rejected the peti- tion. But it is said that If he did reject the petition the order of re jection was never made a matter Of record and hence the appeal to the circuit court was premature; but our statute provides tbat appeals shall be granted to the circuit court from all final orders and judgments Of the county court. at any time within six months after reugition of the same A distinction is made between the rendition of the judgment and its entry, and it is not absolutely es- sential under this statute that the judgment should Ipe entered of record before an appeal is taken. The or der of the county court should have been placed on record, but no objec- tion having been made on this ground in the circuit court it is too late to make it here"
