 SEVERAL MONTHS. Under Ordinary Circumstances the Supreme Court Will Not Render an Opinion Before Late
 in April,

Ralph Armstrong, condemned to deatl, in Tuskegee for the murder of his cousin Miss Allie Armstrong, will be given d longer lease on life than the sentence of the court implies, by the action of his attorneys in making an immediate appeal to the Supreme Court of Alabama.
 Armstrong was sentenced to be hanged January next, but the completion. of his appeal by his attorneys will delay his execution until the latter part of April at the shortest. Under the ordinary operation of the law and custom regard ing appeal the Supreme Court of the State will not receive the appeal until April II, 1904
 Armstrong's attorney, as soon as he was sentenced %o be hanged. announced that an appeal would be taken and Judge N D. Denson who presided at the trial made the required entry of the appeal. The thirty days to complete their bill of eX- captions. When this has been signed by the Judge and forwarded to the Clerk of the Supreme Court the execution of the death sentence will be suspended until the Supreme Court passes upon it and if the case is affirmed fixes a new date for the hanging.
 Macon County in which the Armstrong case was tried is in the Fifth Division of the Supreme Court. Cases coming up from this division will be next considered in the week beginning April Il. 1904.

Wonderful Jewels.

Beautiful as are the jewels of Queen Alexandra and the German Empress, they become almost insignificant when com pared with the Russian crown Jewels Indeed. the Czarina herself has not even seen all her jewels, which are stored in 150 safes and gre under the care of eleven attendants, while six court dignitaries are responsible for them.
 One of the most interesting articles in the whole of the collection is q jeweled cape which is a mass of diamonds and other precious stones. It is not largo but nevertheless 1t is So weighty that it can only be worn for a few minutes at a time. In the Czarina's private collection of jewels is a chain of hawless emeralds which she prizes immensely for she, like her grandmother Queen Victoria, cares for emeralds far more than for any other precious stones.
 Generally tie Czarina wears little tew- elry, but on State occasions she some times seems fairly ablaze with diamonds and other precious stones. On her we'd ding day her gown was studded all over with gems, and the Czars crown con tained hundred of the finest white dia- monds.

 It is doubtful whether the army of any country on earth could fight its hardest were there no flags to symbolize their cause, no drums and bugles to speak for 1t again and again.
