Tallmadge Case Dismissed.

| NcloC 4CAohlAoSNus
The parties in New Mexico who
last mouth essayed to injure the
business of the Tallmadge South
western Land Company by causing
the arrest of Benjamin IL. Tall
madge on the charge of subOrna-
ton of perjury alleging that he in
duccd another person to commit
perjury in connection with land
deals, says the and New York
Chronicle, found they had taken
a bigger Dite than they cOudl chew.
At least, that is the deduction made
from press. dispatches from POr-
tales, N. NJ, which state that the
prosecution has withdrawn all
charges against Mr.. Tallmadge and
that as a result United States
Commissioner W. j.. Lindsay has
dismissed the case. Evidently the
prosecution learned their supposed
evidence was unreliable and would
not hold under oath. If they had
been as careful in the first in
stance, Mr.. Tallmadge would have
been saved the humiliation of ar
rest and false accusation.

ENGLISH ROYAL VETO.
1t Is Practically Extinct, Not Having
Been Used Since 17OS.

1t Is Practically Extinct, Not Having
Been Used Since 1908.
The earliest mention of the exercise
of the royal veto was when King Hen
ry ", shortly after the victory Of
Agincourt, said lie roy s'avisera"
(the king will consider it, to petition
of parliament against the transferring
of suits at common law into chancery.
Many instances are mentioned dur
ing succeeding reigns until that OF
Queen Anne, who is responsible for the
latest exercise of this very interesting
power in refusing the sOvereign's as
sent to the bill for settling the militia
Of Scotland, passed by the lords and
the commons on March II, 170S. This
is recorded in the journals Of the house
Of lords.
Since 17OS the veto has never been
used though there was threatened
exercise of royal power Of rejection
toward the close of the reign Of George
III. and also by Queen Victoria in 1858.
Mr.. Bagehot considered that this pow
er is extinct and added that Queen
Victoria must sign her own death war
rant if both houses present it for her
signature London Standard.

Friday is kind of holiday in our

There is big lot of superstition in
this matter, and, except in cases Of
actual necessity, it is hard to get any
body to move on Friday. If few
families that intend to change quar-
tiers soon could only be induced to put
aside their foolish prejudice against
the sixth day of the week they could
be set up in their new home with half
the trouble and Inconvenience they will
experience on any other day. l have
explained that to many prospective
customers, but the chances are that
most of them will vote to join the rush
rather than tempt bad luck by moving
ON Friday.
Most of our movers dislike Friday
as much as the customers. Whatever
Jobs are assigned to them they attend
to. of course. but every last man in
our employ will be glad if not a sin
gle order was booked for Friday. They
claim that every smashup they figure
in, every accident to the furniture
through loss or breakage, occurs on a
Friday, so for their own sake they up
hold the customers in their fight
against Friday."-New York Press.

PAGE SEVEN
VENOMOUS EMOTIONS.
Sentiments Which, 1t Is Said, Liter.
ally Poison Our Blood.

ally Poison Our Blood.
Anger, fear, anxiety, are among the
emotions or sentiments which literally
poison our blood. 1t has often been
said that evil thoughts are poisonous,
the meaning being that they corrupt
other people, but the real fact is that
they poison our own bodies.
By losing control of ourselves and
indulging in anger by yielding to anx-
iety, fear and unwhOlesome thoughts,
we cause an irritation or disturbance
which, according to the latest sayings
of scientists, has the effect of produc-
ing a poison in the blood that may
have serious consequences.
Naturalists declare that the venom
of snakes is generated by anger and
fear; that it is rapidly collected in a
special receptacle and thence dis
charged at the object Of it's anger or
fear, and it is further explained that
the same process takes place in the
human body, but that we have no spe-
cial organ to receive II, and 1t therefore
disperses in the blood, acting against
ourselves instead of for our protection.
Be that as it may, it Is generally con-
coded that we are literally poisoned by
the emotions mentioned and by any
sentiment or passion which upsets the
smooth working of our minds.-Home
