NOT REVERSIBuE.,
One Decision That the supreme
Court Couldn't Alter.

One Decision That the supreme
Court Couldn't Alter.
In the good old days when Judge
Gaslin sat upon the bench in district
that comprised the western half Of
Nebraska, the rustler, the horse thief
and the killer abounded. Judge Gaslin
was aware that there was but one way
to rid the country of these pests, and
that way was to make it too hot for
them. Accordingly Judge Gaslin, when
one of them was put on trial, admitted
evidence that was sometimes "incOm-
petent, irrelevant and immaterial," but
as it was generally true that if the
prisoner was not guilty he had been
guilty Of something equally bad Judge
Gaslin let it go at that and clinched
the prisoner on general principles. The
result was that the supreme court re-
versed a good many Of the judges
cases.
During these perilous times an afro
county and the perpetrators were soon
captured. The evidences Of guilt were
plain, and the two prisoners were soon
pronounced guilty and sentenced to be
hanged. But as several notorious char
acters had recently been allowed to es-
cape by the supreme court, the people
Of Adams determined to forestall any
thing Of that kind by quietly lynching
the prisoners. The two men were TAX
en- from the Jail and hanged to a rail-
road bridge east of town.
The bodies were left hanging to the
bridge, and next morning Judge Gas
lin sauntered out that way to take q
look. He gazed on the swaying bodies
for few moments without saying a
word. Then he turned to friend and
remarked:
II sentenced those two fellows to be
hanged. That's one decision that in
fernal supreme court won't reverse."-

THE REPORTERS METHODS.
Marked Difference From Those of the
Orator, Preacher and Novelist.

Marked Difference From Those of the
Orator, Preacher and Novelist.
Probably not one reader in a hundred
has paused to notice that newspaper
article is written on n plan just the re-
verse Of that of sermon or grafton.
Comparatively few ministers have an
alyzed the subject sufficiently to notice
this fact, and their ignorance of it will
often account for the reluctance of
newspapers to accept matter contribut-
ed by them. 1t Is worth the while of
every man and woman to know the
general plan on which newspaper arti-
cles are written, for almost everybody
desires at times to announce something
through the press. The mere knowl-
edge of the theory will not make sue
cessful writer in this or any other de-
partment, but it is the first step.
The skillful preacher or orator usual
ly reserves his most important points
until toward the end Of his discourse,
| closing with a climax; the skillful
newspaper reporter puts his climax in
to his first sentence and ends with the
most nonessential detail. While the
novelist secures his dramatic effect by
keeping the secret of his story hidden
as long as possible, the reporter attains
success by revealing his secret as
quickly as words will let him. Both
are working on principles as clearly
defined as that on which a sonnet is
constructed, but the modern newspa-
per article is of so much more recent
date that few critics have analyzed it,
| and even many of the best New York
writer's work daily upon the foregoing
! principle without knowing it. No man
can work many days under metropol-
itan city editor without learning it,

A Business Epitaph.

Il was hunting for odd epitaphs," !"
said Tennessee newspaper man, "and
In a cemetery in my own state l came
across one that was inscribed upon q
neat granite monument and read in
this way: Sacred to the memory OF
John Smith, for 20 years senior partner
Of the firm Of Smith & Jones, now ]. j.
Jones & Co.
"Of course the names weren't really
Smith and Jones, but l don't want to
hurt anybody's feelings, and they will
answer for the purposes of the story.
I met Jones later, and he gave me .
frank explanation Of the inscription.
Smith was bachelor without rel
atives,' he said, but he knew tre-
mendous lot of country people, and If
any of them happened to see his grave
they might think that the old house
had closed up and gone out Of busi-
ness. So I thought it no more than
right to let them know that the firm
was still alive

An Outbreak of tuberculosis

The HERD AT THE ASYLUM
AN EXPERT ExAMlNA TON TO BE MADE
The Department at Washington viii b, Asked

Advise as to What Steps
OUGHT 10 be Taken,

tuberculosis has made its appearance
among the cattle composing the asylum
herd, one Of the finest in the State.
Twenty nine of the forty-odd cows are
affected and it is feared that they will
have to be killed. Already they have
been isolated from the unaffected cattle
and the use of their milk discontinued.
At the meeting of the executive COM
mittee last night, it was ordered that
one of the cows most affected by the
disease be killed and the lungs sent to
the city for examination by an expert
If the examination confirms the diagno-
sis as to the character of the disease, the
Bureau of Animal Industry at Washing
ton will be asked to send a man here to
make thorough examination and recon-
mend such measures as he may deem
best for stamping out the disease and
preventing it's further spread.
The sick cattle are very valuable,
thorough bred animals, some of them CIV
ing ten gallons of mix a day. If they
have to be killed the loss will amount to
many hundred dollars.
1t will be remembered that several
years ago many of the fine herd at the
Experiment farm here had to be killed
on account of an outbreak of tuberculosis
among them.

ONE OF scHLEY's ATTORNEYS.
Isidore Raynor Talks Most Interestingly Of
the Case.
(By Associated Press.)

Baltimore, Nd August 14.-It is an
nounced here today that Isidore Raynor,
attorney general for Maryland, has been
retained as one of the attorneys for Rear
Admiral Schley in his coming hearing be-
fore the court of inquiry. Mr.. Raynor
received letter from Admiral Schley on
Sunday in which he was asked to act as
one of the counsel in the case, and at
once accepted the commission.
Speaking of the case, he said today:
When you analyze all the facts in this
case, as l am trying now to do, you will
find that, with the exception of two
charges embraced in the precept-Ad
miral Schley's alleged failure to destroy
the Colon and his alleged withdrawal %
miles at night after the establishment of
the blockade of Santiago-the whole con-
troversy covers a period of only nine
days that is. from the time the Flying
Squadron left Key West for Cienfuegos
until it started back from Santiago by
the Yucatan Passage for the purpose of
coaling ships. l do not think, therefore,
the case will occupy as much time as con-
templated, as it will be the effort of coun-
sci and no doubt of the court, to get right
down to the salient points of the case
and hold np before the country every
movement made by Admiral Schley from
start TO fnish.'

A STAGE COACH HELD UP.
A Lone Bandit Does the Act in Wild and
WoollY New York.
(By Associated Press.)


Glen Falls. n. Y, August H.-News was
received here tonight that the Blue Noun
tain stage was held up by masked rob-
Der about noon today at North River
The scene of the hold -up cannot be reach
ed by telephone tonight from this point
but the following facts regarding the ROD
berry have been received:
The stage which was stopped, connects
with train which reached North Creek,
Warren county, a station on the Adlron
dacks and Hudson Railroad-at l0.3U
O'Clock a. m. When it left the station
today it contained seven men and one
woman besides a quantity of express and
mail matter for Blue Mountain Lake.
When the stage was one and half miles
north of Dunlaps Hotel at North River
a masked robber suddenly appeared. His
first move was to shoot one of the horses.
He then ordered the passengers to hold
UP their hands and alight. Six of the
men Immediately took to the woods, the
remaining man staying with his wife, who
was relieved of $40 but the robber failed
to find a larger sum in another pocket.
The highwayman then proceeded to
rifle the mail bags and plumber the express
packages, taking everything of value. At
ter he had done his work he disappeared
into the woods and searching parties up
to dark have been unable to find any
trace of him.

Delegates tc Textile Conference Instructed to
Vote Against Reduction.
CBy the Associated Press.)

Fall River, Mass, August H.-Oppo-
sition to the wage reduction proposition
seems to have developed unexpectedly
today land several mills that were on
the list of the promoters of the move
ment now are in the doubtful column.
AS the situation stands today 100000
spindles are now classed as sure to be
pledged and 100000 are classed as
doubtful.
The Spinners and Carders Union to-
night endorsed last nights action of
their executive committees in voting
to oppose the proposition of wage re-
duction. The delegates to the textile
conference were instructed to vote in
favor OF opposing reduction. No action
could be taken by either meeting until
after the meeting of the textile confer
ence, and the textile conference itself
cannot take final action. being an ad-
visory board and not an executive one.
The textile conference will recon-
mend opposition to a reduction and will
probably outline some plan of action to
be followed.
All the unions claim that they are in
strong financial condition and able to
stand long struggle. In addition to
their own resources help will be asked
from unions in other cities and the US
ual assessments will be levied.
