COSTS OF THEJIM TILLMAN
TRIAL.

Clerk Of Court S. B. George, of
Lexington county, has not yet
submitted to Richland county his
detailed statement of the cost for
the Tillman trial, except for diet
ing the jury, which bill amounts
to $500, and the bill for the twelve
jury mon, which is $270. There
ls an Interesting point to be de-
clded as to the pay of the rest Of
the venlre for the second week
when the trial started. Lexing-
ton county holds that this county
Is liable for the pay Of the other
twenty-fOur jurors for the first
day of the second week, but the
commissioners do not think that
this county is liable for the pay
OF any except the twelve men
that heard the case, as the other
twenty-four were summoned to
be present and in the interval
could have heard any case.
This point may haye to be SET
tied by the attorney general.
MIR. George estimated the other
day that the costs of the witness
es would be about 81 900 and that
the other costs would be about
$500, making the total amount
about $4,000 In round numbers.
This is not all, however. For
two terms the case was heard in
this county, one being an srgu-
ment for q continuance and the
other for change of venue. At
both of these, witnesses were
present and Clerk Douglass this
morning estimated that the total
cost for witnesses at these hear.
ings would be about $500, max
ing the total cost of the case
about $4,000, which is a much
lower estimate than was first
made by county officials.-Col-

To get rid Of suffering took morphine my

morphine using, how could you, when in
such agony, knowing it about the only thing
that would give relief, resist it2 ! knew it

Oh, the misery of being addicted to such a

THE LONDON GAZETTE.

The London Gazette Is the old
est and least read Of any news
paper. 1t is at once the biggest
and the least Of all our parers,
for 1t is the only paper in the
land which changes it size from
one page to hundred, according
to the pressure of news. It's the
only newspaper whose word Is
law and whose authority is ac-
ccPtcd IL tho Witness L0x. I.
can make and unmake bank
rupts. 1t is the only paper in
which certain persons are COM
PEELED to advertise, and in which
certain other persona cannot ad-
vertlse for love or money. 1t
yields profit of 100000 year.
The London Gazette has be-
come recogized as part of the
British constitution now, but
time was when the editorship of
the Gazette was one of the spoils
Of Office, worth GSOO a year. 1t
was the recognized reward of
party services in the press. The
government is more economical
today In it's journalism. Under
the old regime the Gazette had,
besides its editor, staff Of five
clerks appointed by the treasury,
but in 1889 the treasury remod-
delled the management of the
paper, found the staff employ
ment elswhere and left the whole
responsibility of the Gazette on
ITS present publishers, Messrs.
Harrison & Sons, of st. Martins
Lane. The printing of the paper
has been in the Harrison family
for practically 130 years.
Absolute secrecy as to the con
tents of any forthcoming Gazette
prevails at ST. Martins Lane, and
though there are thousand
workers in Messrs. Harrison's Of
fees, no items of news has ever
leaked out before its time. Every
sheet of copy" is private and
confidential until it appears for
all the world to see. The "copy"
for the Gazette is written in the
government offices, often by cab
met ministers themselves, and
is invaribly returned with the
proofs. Each secretary initials
his copy" Lord Salisbury 81
gns his with the letter rs" in red
ink-and in cases Of promotion
in the services no paragraph Is
accepted even in proof without
being lnitialed a second time.
Now and then-on uery rare oc-
casions-a piece of copy" is re-
ceived autographed by the SOW.

WESTERN UNION IMPROVE
MENT-Mr. f. II. Lamb, superinten-
dent of the Pacific division Of tn
Western Union Telegraph company
who has been for the last two days see
inc about the removal of the office
from its present location, left last night
on his return to San Francisco. Mr..
Lamb says that the company early in
the coming year Will greatly improve
the wi!e service in this part of the
country. 1t was expected that that
would be done last year but it had be-
come necessary to build along the Cent
raj Pacific and the company did not
like to undertake too great an expense
in ore year. Beginning very soon the
line along the Southern Pacific will be
rebuilt entirely. Not only will better
wires be put in but the company will
be enabled to put in another wire.
That arrangement will give Phoenix a
service equal to that now enjoyed by
Los Angeles Regarding the removal
of the local office, that matter is in the
hsndS of Manager Hinsdale who will
shortly arrive at a decision.

driver and where there have been at
least 100 cases in the two towns
The people of Nine Mile. when taken
down with the disease, imagined they had
some kind of rash Finally a pretty
severe case came along and a doctor was
called in from Price. who pronounced it
smallpox. Then the physician was ordered
back there to Quarantine and if possible
wipe out the plague. In this he has been
fairly successful. and was getting along
well with his work until the disease got
into the home of A. o. Smith. who for

and flung the quarantine flag 10 the

in hand. and literally riddleC the flag

flag upon the premises. The authorities
have as yet taken no action in the mat
