THAT DITCH PROBLEM.
A Correspondent Makes Some Remarks
Upon It and Submits Another One.

EDITOR OF THE News Some time
ago Professor Phillips of Dover gave
to the readers of THE NEWS the
glitch Problem" This.problem is old,
tough and vexatious. Some say it can't
be solved. Here it is : A and B con-
tracts with c. to cut 100 rods of ditch.
A commences work at one end where
il is worth 81. 25 a rod and B at the
other end at 75c. How many rods will
each cut in order to receive $50. There
are two important conditions in this
problem, First, the ditch must cost
800. Second, the two ends OF the often
where work commences must be valued
at the prices mentioned. Now, let US
suppose there is gradual decrease IN
price from A IS end of the ditch toward
BIS end, and the same increase OF price
from BIS toward AS until the center
of the ditch is reached. Here we Will
find the ditch worth exactly 81 a rod,
or the average price paid for the whole
ditch. BY this arrangement, which is
not in conflict with the conditions OF
the problem, the ditch would cost just
800 and A and B would receive pay IN
exact proportion to the amount OF WORK
done. With this view OF the problem
il is still a hard one to solve.
| will now give Professor Phillips g
problem which is practical, whether ut
admits his to be or not, With the prom
Use that if he or any one else will solve
it | will give him what | believe to be
a correct solution of the ditch problem

SITPRENE COURT WANTS
TO SEE MINDER SAVED.
JUSTICES SAY he SHOULD HAVE BEEN
RECOMMENDED TO MERCY.
Mention the Fact that the Condemned
Man 10 Weak in Mind land Bosy'
Pardon Board Will Be Appealed to.

The supreme court does not want TO
sae the death sentence executed IN the
case of / Minder, the former Dawson
sailor who is under sentence to be
hanged in Macon in few days.
They say the law gives them no
mower to interfere. but they Suggest
executive c!emency. In the full de-
cision Just received is the following
significant language;
.sTha deceased was an Irlshman: the
accused was a Jew, aud undoubtedly a
man weak in mind and body, but not
to such an extent as to be irresponsl-
HE. The deceased seems to have heen
thoroughly imbued with an antlpathy
m Jews in general and to the accused
in particular, and never lost an oppor-
tunity to insult by language and place
upon the accused indignities which
wara hard to bear. The evidence au-
thorized an inference that, on account
OF the oyerbearing conduct OF the de-
ceased toward the accused al different
times. the accused was in mortal dread
of him, and his mere presence would
sometimes throw the accused into
q highly excited and nervous condl-
ton. At different places at which the
accused lived his conduct toward the
accused had been that which was cal
culated TO insult and degrade. he was
poaded in a manner that was pltiable,
and in a fit of desperation he tooh the
life of his prosecutor. Under the law
he was guilty of murder. The jury
were authorized to so find; the trial
mdoe has approved this finding, and
we have no authority to interfere.
We would. however, have been better
satisfied, in affirming the judgement OF
the court in refusing to grant a hew
trial, had the jury seen fit, in the au-
thority which the law vests IN them,
10 commute the penalty to life lmprls-
onment, That, however, is matter
which is under the law left to the jury,
and neither the trial Judge nor this
court has right to change the pun
isbment which the law prescrlbes. Ii
mistake has been made, and ifthis is
one of those cases where the penalty
should be imprisonment instead OF
DEATH, the accused is without aremedy
so far as the judicial department OF
the government is concerned and
must make his appeal to the eXecu
tive,
Judgement affirmed. All the justices
cOucurring." :.
1t is said that Minder's counsel will
now appeal to the state pardon board
instead of taking his case TO the United
States court.
