The democratic fight to reclaim New
York Stats from republican control was
planned 10 Albany on Monday night,
when the party leaders from ell SECTIONS
OF the State ait ended the formal opening
of the new State headquarters in that
city. There were present more leaders
OF acknowledged influence 10 the party
than have met under one roof at any
time since 1896. Present and declaring
FIR harmony in the approaching Stat
campaign were Cleveland m ID, Bryan
men, Hill men and Croker men. The
SIM of what all declared was that
the Ststs can be reclaimed by the
democracy next November By concert
ed, judicious action, the adoption of aD
aggressive policy and avoidance of tae
mistakes OF recent campaigus. All Of
the speakers declared that the party in
the sect obs of the State they represent.
ed stood ready to support any csndi-
date for Governor WHO is named by the
state convention this fill. This is q
good start as will the 6uiSh also be II
the declarations Of t1e leaders are car
rlsd out. There are more democrats
than republicans 10 New York and but
for constant dissentions among them
that State would slwsye be fouud in the
democratic column. Should New York
be reclaimed this fall it would be bic

LEARNED ENGLISH HORSE.
= Carried Its Drunken Driver Out of the
 Clutches of the Law.

It Is a wise horse that knows his own Blackstone, and very thankful must the carman, charged the other day with being drunk in charge of a horse and cart, have felt to his learned Rosinante for her keen legal acumen and decisive action. When this good steed felt her reins go slack, and heard, likely enough, the stertorous breathing of her lord and master, she pulled herself together and thought out a plan for escaping the penalties that would befall them if they were found thus incapable on the public road. Taking the bit between her teeth and the matter into her own hands, she calmly walked up the pri- vate drive of house in Green lanes. In the garden she was found with her master fast asleep, and in spite of her no doubt intelligent protests, was taken to the police station. In the morning the young carter was charged with the offense above men, tioned; but it appeared in the course of the case that no one had seen him in charge on the public highway, and so the case fell through. Verify, a perfect treasure of an animal who could so provide for her drivers safety; we hope the carter appreciat- ed his steed's alue.-Pall Mall Ga .gatte.

HAVE A MORBID TASTE.
People Who Habitually Attend Polio,
 Court Trials in Biz Cities.


 Court Trials in Big, Cities.
 "It would seem that the police court is strange place to go as mat ter of choice, and yet nearly every morning in both branches of that tribunal in Washington one will find almost all the seats outside the cage and railing filled with curious spec tators."
 The speaker was well-known att torney, whose practice is chiefly be- fore the higher courts, says the Wash ington Star, but who nevertheless is frequently seen at the building where persons charged with lesser crimes and misdemeanors are brought for judgment. Continuing, he said:
 Evidently these curious specta- tors take curious delight in listen ing to the testimony presented in the cases. The stories that are told by the prisoners relating how and why they came to be brought before the bar of justice, seem to possess a sin gular attraction for great many idle people who put in large share of their time on the benches at the po- lice court.
 "As rule these spectators are persons with morbid curiosity, which seems to satiate itself with the tales of how others were unable to withstand the temptations incident to an ordinary condition of life. For 1t is fact that large majority of the crimes alleged are committed in the ordinary course of the prisoners lives. The charges on which cul- prlts are arraigned are those of be- ing drunk and disorderly, quarreling and raising disturbance, fighting, occasional petty stealing, and vari- ous violations of municipal regula- tions, all of which are incident to the average life. l mean that nearly everyone is almost daily tempted, or has the opportunity, to commit a greater or less number of the offenses indicated. Every one doesn't have chance to steal a thousand dollars every day, but he does have an oppor- tunlty to become intoxicated, or get 'Halxed npv pvin < 'fisticuff, or to raise ;u thrbance, and not infrequently 1t is necessary for men of even great intelligence and in high positions to refrain from taking the law in their own hands to punish another, and thus lay themselves liable to an ac- cusation before police judge.
 Tt is not for me to say that these morbidly curious people who, almost daily, are seen occupying seats among the spectators at the police court are lacking in intelligence or are e4attracted to the scene of anoth- CTS judgment because of their own criminal instincts or tendencies. But l am told by those who have gwen attention to study of similar people that it is not infrequently the case that persons who are seen reg ularly outside the railing eventually find occasion to stand behind the grating, and in turn defend them selves against charges similar to those preferred against other persons whom they were wont to watch from the outside in days gone by.
 "Fbere is certainly nothing ele- vating toAan individuals moral sense to sit and listen to the monotonous stories of another persons downfall. and why people persist in doing so is a strange freak of nature to me"

MURDERS NEAR SAVANNAH.
Dead Bodies of Old White Man and
NEGRO Discovered.

Savannah, Ca, Nov. 3.-Gugie Bour-
quin, 65 years old, and a negro man
were murdered some time yesterday
near the place Oh the former, about 6
miles from the city.
The two were driving together when
they were shot. Bourquins body was
found in the buggy, and that of the
negro was found 100 yards distant.
Both men were dead.
Edward F. Lowell, Jr., and H. s.
Dresses, who live in that neighbor.
hood, made the discovery. They re-
ported their find to the authorities
upon their arrival in the city and
deputy sheriffs, with bloodhounds, are
seeking to find the trail of the MUIR
derers.
The motive of the crime is not
known. From time to time Mr. Bour.
quin has had trouble with pot hunt
ers who have sought to shoot the
game that is to be found in abundance
on his place. It is thought possible
that the killing may have grown out
of some such trouble. Behind the
buggy was found doublebarreled
shotgun, with the percussion caps
missing, though the gun was loaded.

GEORGIA LEGISLATURE.
Both Houses VIII Get Down to 7usI-
ness This Week.

Atlanta, Nov. 3.-Now that the
standing committees of both house
and senate have been appointed and
organized, the legislature will get
down to business this week. Some
thing like 200 bills and resolutions
have already been introduced in the
house and referred to appropriate COM
mittees. which will have about all
they can do this week getting these
measures in shape and reporting them
back for a second reading, or if the
report is adverse, for such action as
the house may see fit to take.
Cne-half the measures introduced
so far are purely local; perhaps even
more of them apply only to particular
sections or communities of the state,
All Of these except where there may
be a local fractional fight will be re-
ported back favorably and passed with
out discussion.
Many Of the general bills introduced
will have hard fighting for life, while
others will die from adverse report.

servative throughout, and it is evil
dent that radical legislation will havc
hard time fighting it's way to tho
statute books.
So far no really new general legis-
lation has been proposed in either
house. Practically every general bill
of any consequence introduced so far
is counterpart of or similar to some
measure that was before the legisla-
ture last year or the year before. The
same amendments to the constitution
that were proposed last year and which
were thoroughly discussed before q
Joint committee Of the house and SEN
ate, are now finding their way before
a Joint committee of the house and
senate. are now finding their way be-
fore both bodies. This year, however,
these proposed constitutional amend.
ments will be considered by the regu'
lar standing committees of both houses
and reported on separately and In reg.
ular order There will be no Joint
committee as last year, when it was
found that this committees work oc-
cupied so much time that it was i'm
possible at the close of the session
to give the proposed amendments prop
er consideration.
There are some new measures on
educational subjects, and bill to pre-.
vent bribery in primary elections which
will doubtless receive serious consid.
Grafton. However, the session has
only begun, and. many other measures
of interest will doubtless appear in
the course of the next week or two.
