rnPtcy-In the Case Of John. r Rey-
nOIds.
Some months ago one John P
Reynolds filed a voluntary petit
ton In bankruptcy asking that he
be adjudicated q bankrupt per-
suant to the act of congress re-
lating to bankruptcy His schedule
fled with said petition disclosed no
assets of any value. Shortly after
his adjudication he likewise filed
petition praying that he be dis
charged from all his provable debts
ard liabilities; a day was set for
hearing and an order discbarging
him was entered by the court.
Sometime after the said discharge
was granted, but within the limit
prescribed by the act for revoking
a discharge, the creditors of the
bankrupt discovered some evidence
of the fact that the said bankrupt
had practiced fraud In the procure
ment of bis discharge, In as much
as be had such an interest in real
estate In Berkeley county as should
have Nessed to his trustee and that
his failure to list the same In his
schedule was a corcealment of his
true financial condir on, which con-
stituted fraud under the bankrupt
law. The creditors of the bank
rupt therefore petitioned the court
10 bankruptcy praying that the dis
charge be revoked and set aside, as
the same was not warranted by the
actual facts. The court thereupon
referred the same to Jas. D. Butts,
OF Martinsburg, one of the references
of the court In bankruptcy, for a
hearing and report
Referee Butts has just banded
down his finding and report, which
has been approved and confirmed
by Judge Jackson, of the u. S.
district court, in which he decides
that the interest Of the said bank
rupt-which was a remainder In
terest under a will dependent upon
the death of a tenent before the
death of the said bankrupt-was to
transfer under section 70 of the
bankrupt act and If he could by
any means have transferred pro
to the filing of his petition said IN
terest, he was reqpired to disclo e
the same In the bankrupt schedule
and 1t should have passed to hi
trustee In bankruptcy. Thereupon
the said bankrupt having failed Ia
comply with the provision o. the
act In that particular, he did with
fraudulent intent conceal his iTue
financial condition IN contempla
ton OF bankruptcy; that his dis
charge was obtained thr )ugh fraud
and the same should be .et aside
and revoked.
This Is the first discharge that
HIS been revoked In the district

A REAL PHILOSOPHER.

HE HERALD has heard of a great
many real philosophers in its time,
but it desires to remove its hat here
and now to one Job Williams of Bridge
ton, N J. Williams forgot the ordinary
eourtesies Of life which every good cit
izen should observe and killed two peo-
pie. That happened some time ago.
and now he has but six days between
him and the scafold. A few days ago
ne became i'll and for While he feared
that he would die a natural death. 1t
was then that he felt moved to remark:
Sheriff, I'm praying every day that
won't die before next Wednesday, the
date set for my execution. Sickness is
such an easy death. 1 ought to be
punished I want to be hanged.
A man OF such a turn of mind GER
tainly deserves his hearts desire We
join in hoping that disease will not
cheat the gallOWs. Williams wants TO
die by the rope, not in the ordinary
way. and we trust the rope will be per-
mitted to do its part. And just to show
that ne wants to do the right thing the
sheriff has decided not to hang Will
liams from a second hand scaffold, as
he originally intended. Instead, he will
erect an entirely new one, warranted
to do the job in a neat and workman
like manner.

OF guns that Krupp win be best and
longest remembered. His father be-
fore him was a gunmaker, and was
never known for anything else. When
the son inherited the factories he in
herited the reputation as well.
Nor is it such a bad reputation,
either. The Krupp gun is a mighty
civilizer. 1t destroys, but its destruc-
ton is usually followed by a building
that is better than the original struc-
ture. And there are few things so well
calculated to make and preserve peace
among nations as the knowledge that
all are prepared for battle. The Krupps.
father and son, did more to arm the
nations than any other two men who
have ever lived. Both men, too, were
charitable; both looked carefully after
the best interests of their thousands
Of employees. and. if right living here
counts for anything in the world to
come, both are happily situated where
the roar of great guns is never heard.
