sTo save ones bacon'-that is, to
make narrow escape-is supposed to
refer to the Dunmow fitch. For many
centuries it was the custom at Dun
NOW, in England, to present fitch Of
bacon to a married couple Of twenty
years standing who would make oath
on the Scriptures that they had never
had a quarrel. To come close to
quarrel without an actual rupture was,
in the popular dialect "to save ones

Power of the State is But Thinly
Disguised, Says the Court in AArm-
ing the Action of the Court of
Claims on Petition for Recovery Of
$4,000 Paid Since 1898.

Washington. Special. - The Su-
preme Court Of the UAited States de-
cided that the national government
may properly tax the State liquor dis
pensaries of South Carolina. The op-
inion was delivered by Justice Brewer
in the case of the State Of South
Carolina VS.. the United States. This
action was instituted by the State of
South Carolina to recover $4,000
paid to the revenue officers Of the
national government on account of
the sale of liquors by the State and
county dispcnsaries under the dispen-
saiy law. The State took the posi-
ton that as the dispensaries sold
liquors without profit they should mol
be taxed by the government, but the
tax has been collected since 1893.
This is said to have been the first
case in which the State umiteS in one

of Claims dismissed the petition or

power was but thinly disguised, hold
ing that the real purpose was money

TRINC OF TROUBLE
Strong Efforts to Bring Order
Out of Chaos
RUSSIAN PUBLIC ORGANIZING
Present Conditions Are Unbearable
and Sympathy For the Poorly Paid
Post and Telegraph Employees is
Turning Into Indignation.

St. Petersburg, By Cable.-Al-
though there appears to be no founda-
tion for the prevailing fears that an
outbreak is imminent, the population
continues in state of anxious sus-
pense.
The garrison has now been re-en-
forced by AZ battalions Of infantry, ID
squadron of cavalry and II machine
gun batteries. The city is divided in
to four districts, under Generals Osar-
off, Dubenski, SteIma and Trodski, re-
spectively.
The government, it is reported. mar
rowly frustrated a plot whereby a
thousand armed men had arranged to
raid the State Treasury. One of the
conspirators, it is said, betrayed his
fellows, whereupon the leaders, know
irg that their attack could be repuls-
ell by the troops with great slaughter,
a5ap.ioned it. The existence Of this
conspiracy led TO report that mar
tial law would be proclaimed, but this
Is autuOTdtiSely uelieu.
The extension of the strike of the
telegraphers to the postal system is
complete and the paralysis of business
is increasing the danger of financial
crisis.
The strike Of the Moscow telephone
operators, who cnt the wires and tore
up the poles, has severed the last
means of communication with the an
cient capital.
The present conditions are unbear-
able. Sympathy with the poorly paid
post and telegraph employees is now
turning into Indignation against the
strikers, and the public is supporting
formidable movement which has
been started by all classes to throw
off the yoke Of the revolutionaries.
The government undoubtedly is en-
couraging the organization of these
forces. The CLAW and Order Party
took the lead, and is now being fol-
lowed by the "Soclety Of Strike
breakers,'' but the most important
movement has been started under the
leadership of Father Gapon, the for
mer idol Of the workmen, who since
his residence abroad has become con-
vinced that Russia is not prepared Tor
a republic, and is appealing to his old
comrades to cut loose from the revo-
lutionary agitators. The latter al
ready charge that Father Gapon has
been bought and that he is traitor
to the cause Of the people. Father
Gapon, however, is sincere and his in
huence undoubtedly is great.
If this movement should grow an
all effective split among the workmen
be thereby created, it will prove of
immeasurable service to the govern
ment in tiding things over until the
meeting of the Douma.

A woman HANGED
The First Female Legally txe-
cuted in Years
LEGAL EFFORT FOR MRS. ROGERS
Mary Rogers Left Her Husband Over
Two Years Ago-Afterwards Al
fecting Reconciliation at Meeting
Place Agreed Upon.

Windsor, VT, Special.-Mrs. Mary
Rogers, the woman who murdered her
husband some . years ago and for
whom so much has been done to have
the sentence Of death changed to life
Imprisonment, was hanged Friday
afternoon at | 40 o'clock, at Wind
sor, Vermont. This ends one of the
most celebrated cases in the criminal
history of this country.
Mrs. Rogers went to her death with
out any show of emotion. She made
no statement or confession. \ short
religious ceremony was held with
Father Delaney. just before the march
to the galows. Before the signal
was given to spring the trap she nod
ded her head that she was ready.
Every ingenious device, known to
law. was used TO save Mary Rogers
from the gibbet. and it was not until
the ease was disposed OF by the Su-
premc Court of the United States late
last month that ali hope was given
ND of saving the woman : life. Had
there been one mitigating clrcum-
stance: had there been one spark of
womanliness in Mary Rogers. had she
shown slight possibilities Of regenc-
ration. Governor {. J. Bell. Of Yer
mont. might have intcrfercd. The
murder was as brutal as that of Mrs
Martha Place, who hacked her step
daughter to pieces because of jealousy,
in Brooklyn. Gov. Roosevelt declined
to interfere and save her from elec-
trocution III March. 1890.

COUNTING VOTES AS CAST.
Upon Argument by Alton B. Parker
Justice Amend Rules That he is
Estopped From Questionening Va
lidity of Any Ballots Counted by
Election Inspectors, and Recount

Election Inspectors, and Recount
= Begins.
New York. Specialize recount OF
ballots in FIVE ballot boxes used in
New Yorl;'s mayoralty election con-
test was ordered to be begun Friday
by Justice Amend in the Supreme
Court.
The original order to open these five
boxes was granted few Gays ago.
Jutsice Amend, inordering the recount
to begin, modified his original order
so as to limit the canvassing to the
candidates for mayor, comptroller
and president Of the board alder
men, and also to eliminate from the
recount the void and protested ballots.
Counsel for W. +. Hearst, Mayor
Mcclellan and Assistantc Corporation
Counsel Butts engaged in heated az
sument before the boxes were opened.
Alton B. Parker. for Mayor McClel-
AN. and Mr.. Butts contended that the
court had 10 right to make re-can-
vass of the votes or to reconsider tha
result, but could compel the election
inspectors correctly to state the result
they reached Oh election night.
"You mean. then," said Austin G.
Fox, for Mr.. Hearst, "that YOU do not
want the true vote ascertalned, and
that if a vote for Hearst has been
counted for Mcclellan you don't want
it known?"
81 mean," retorted Mr.. Butts,
"that i want the true vote ascertain
ed according to law
"And how may that be - in
quired Mr.. Fox.
"By quo warranto proceedings, ="
was the reply.
"And such proceedings can only be
undertaken after January, comment
ed Mr.. Fox. ~ sec."
Mr.. Parker disclosed. that the court
had no right to throw out any ballot
which had been counted by the cleo
ton inspectors. Justice Amend ruled
that he is estopped from questioning
the validity of the ballots aud they
must be counted as cast.
The first ballot box was then open
ed by inspectors in the court room and
the recount was begun. with the rep
fesentatives of the newspapers occu-
pying the seats intended for jury
men.
The openeing of four ballot boxes
and the recounting Of the ballots was
finished Saturday night before Judge
Amend. The net results was a gain
of seventeen votes III the four dis
tricts for Hearst, and of these being
gained in three districts. Henry M.
Younge, Of counsel for Mr.. Hearst,
said:
"The results thus far have shown
that the inspectors miscouhted the
split ballots, to the gain of McClel-
Ian and the loss of Mr.. Hearst. If it
turns out in other districts as it has
in those examined Mr.. Heart is elected
on the recount"
