TWO DAYS THAT ARE ONE.
December 3Oth and 31st This Year
Count as One.

W. w. Padgett, an attorney at Fort
Scott, Kansas, has made discovery
that is new to the legal fraternity and
business men in general. 1t is that the
last two days of December OF this
year-30th and 31st-are only one day
legally.
1t seems that way back in the last
century, during the reign Of Henry Ill
when the lunar months were disposed
of, changing the first of the year from
May % to January 1, and making the
calendar on the irregular lengths, the
law that governs the calendar of today
was established. The leap year was
provided for in order to make the time
come even but at the same time it awas
provided that 365 days shall constitute
year in all cases so that every time
there is leap year the last two days
shall be counted as one in all lega
papers. If note falls due on the mex
to the last day the executor has unit
the end of the next day to take it up.

MAY NOT TAKE LIFE.
officer Has No Right to Kill Man
Who Resists Arrest.

The supreme court of Iowa will not
countenance the theory thata constable
or policeman has a right to kill man
who resists arrest for misdemeanor.
The court yesterday sustained Judge
Sloan in Monroe county in a case in
which Thomas Smith, an officer was con-
victed of manslaughter for shooting and
killing one Wild Sarver, who was assist
ing his son to escape from the officer
who had made an arrest for drunken
ness. The court says that the question
as to the right of an officer under such
circumstances in resort of taking Of
human life had never been passed upon
by the Iowa supreme court. The rule
laid down in regard to an officer is the
same as for an individual. sit is bet
ter" says the court, "that misdemean-
ant escape than that the power to ar
rest be asserted to the extent Of killing
one whose offense subjects him only to
4 a trifing fine or confinement for few
days in Jail.
This does not require the officer to
retreat before a display Of violence nor
!. deprive him of the common right of sell
defense, but simply denies him the right
to use deadly weapon or take human
life in enforcing an arrest for mis-
demeanor even though without sucl
force the wrong doer may escape"

FROM SOUTH AFRICA.
New Way of Using Chamberlain's
Couqh Remedy.

Mr.. Arthur Chapman writing from
Durham, Natal, South Africa, says: "As
a proof that Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy is cure suitable for old and young,
pen you the following: A neighbor Of
mine had child just over two months
old. 1t had very bad cough and the
parents did not know what to give it. /
suggested that if they would get a
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
and put some upon the dummy teat the
baby was sucking it would no doubt
cure the child. This they did and
brought about aquick relief and cured
the baby" This remedy is for sale by

ings on Tuesday. let us go back to

a high moral sentiment among the peo-
