GOVERNOR DECIDES

TO PROTECT LIEGLEH.
Il think had better decide that Gues-

cases whore the uriIna facie case is es-

The Governor then stated as he had
several times before. that In a somewhat
similar case. the Court OF Appeals had
overruled the Governors decision in
granting cxtradtion when 1t was not con-
clusivcly established that the defendant
was IN the State at the time of the COM
mission Of the crime for which he was to
be eNtradited He said he desired to be
perfectly fair. but that he must keep as
close to the lines OF the law Us he knew
how t. do.
But asked Judge Harvey. Suppose a
murder had been committed In Missouri
and one of the eye witnesses of the crime
had t.ed II your State, would you then
require positive proof that he was pres
ent? In other words. would You accept
an alihi or would you consider that il was

Governor OielI said that he did not re-
gard that as a parallel case
Well added Judge Harvey. I'VE coll
tend that we are within the law when
we demand the right to show that Mr..
Zegler was there in January and again
in April, in making cut prima faci case.
We also contend that If this defendant
sent his agent, Kelley, there to effect
bribery. he Is as guilty of the crime as Il
he acted as the dis5ursing agent him

At the conclusion of the hearing at
o'clock tonight. Governor odell told At
torncy General Crow and Judge Harvey
that he would give them two weeks in
which to file briefs On the contested
points of law. Another week will be given
to Mr.. Zegler's attorneys to examine and
answer these briefs.
1t will therefore be at least three weeks
before Governor Odell's decision will be
satisfied tonight that the Governor will
decide against them.
CROW HAS SYMPTOMS
OF PNEUMONIA.
Attorney General Crow started iInme-
diately for the West tonight. He is Ill
with high fever and has symptoms OF
pneumonia. He required the attendance
of physician to-day. Before leaving AL
bany. General Crow said:
This may be New York State law, but
1t is not Missouri law. We did not come
here prepared to give Mr.. Ziegler Jury
trial. nor, did We expect to be restricted
to enc little section of the case. You might

The History Of Man.

1t is said by man that Asa was |
the cradle Of the human race. To |
this the Bible agree. The exact, !
date Of the Creation and Fall OF
man cannot be determined with any
degree o. certainty, by the History
OF man neither can the interval
between the Creation and the De-
luge DO ascertained. On these facts
chronoIogists are sbsurdly al vari-
ance; but the difficulty of ass,gning
the exact timo Of those events
by tho History OF man does not
in any way diminish the evidence
of their actual occurrence and the
Bible truths as they are recorded
in the sacred volume OF God word.
| 1t is supposed By man that
the descendants OF Shem the eld-
est Of Noah's sons, after tho dis
persion of mankind at Babel, went
to the East, and populated Asia;
Those of Ham, with few Q ceptions

Harry Straub met with serious
accident at Berwick Tuesday after
noon. He is employed at the Store
Company, and while ascending the
freight elevator, his foot in some
manner, slipped between the plat
form of the elevator and the casing,
and crushed it almost to pulp. A
physician was called in and dressed
the injury so that he could be re-
moved to Bloomsbury. He was
brought down on the trolley and
talen out to his home on the Pur-
sci farm, where doctors Redeker
anil Bruner removed a portion OF
tR heel. While he is suffering
considerably, he is getting along as
gPd as can be expected.

Soaring The Circle.

The Focht ballot bill, the Republi-
can organization measure, which will
change the present system by "squar-
ing the CIRCLE" was on Friday made a
law.
The ballot bill, alleged to work re-
form in the present system of casting
votes, was introduced in the Senate
by Senator Focht, of Union, and went
through by strict party vote. When
it reached the House, the eloquence
of the Democratic orators was hurled
against its passage, but it went
through. 1t has been in the Gov
ernor's hands for some time.
In speaking of the merits of the
bill State attache, who is authority
on such subjects says: "The bill
signed by the Governor does this: in
place of the circle at the head of the
ticke, we have square opposite the
name of each party. The only Other
change the bill provides for is the
grouping of the candidates for each
office under one head in the same
column

IT WOULD BE A GOOD INVENTION.

A few evenings ago party of
gentlemen were smoking, after re-
freshments had been served, at a
small company in a private house.
As it was the first of May, and
most of them were stockholders in
a well-known copper company, the
subject of dividends naturally arose,
as it had been expected that a
quarterly dividend would be paid
at that time. Why it was not, was
the subject of the conversation.
One gentleman said that he had
been informed that it had been dis
covered that large quantities of
rich ore were being drawn up the
smoke stack by the forced draft
necessary to run seven smelters
with one stack, and that it was
estimated that about $4,000 day
had been the loss, until the defect
was discovered. and he accounted
for the non-payment of dividends
by this fact. Another member OF
tie party at once lapsed into a
thoughtful mood, and remained so
until attention was called to it and
he was asked why he was so quiet.
His reply was that he was trying
to study up some kind of dividend
catcher to put on top Of that smoke
stack" Every one present hoped
that his inventive genius might be
able to find the needed article.

Berwick is considerably agitated
over the discovery of case of what
appears to be varioloid. The victim
is Mrs. Ward Jacoby, who lives in
the toll house at the approach oI
the river bridge. The board Of
health have taken hold Of the mat
ter, and, should small pox develop,
a strong effort will be made to pre-
vent its spread. An outbreak o.
this disease would be most unfortu'
nate for our sister town, particularly
now, when it is enjoying the great
est boom in its history.
