Influential politicians in the
state of Indiana will hereafter
have to pay cash Tor their railroad
tickets or walk. The house Of
that state passed an anti-pass law
which prohibits the issuance OF
railroad passes to any citizen of
that state. The bill provides
heavy penalties for violation OF
the law. as: for the issuance of a
pass to any citizen, the railroad
companies will BE- fined from S2co
to $4,000 and the person except
ing such favors will be fined from
$50 to $500. There is nothing
that pleases the railroad magnates
better than this bill.

The Avon Clarion and the Del
mont Record are mercilessly pull.
ing each others hair Tor some
time. One doubts the others
capacity as a printer, accusing him
of bad display of ads. and still
worse print and an abundancy of
typographical errors throughout
their publications and finally that
all these artistic details are ex-
posed to the critical public with
an offensive makeup. We have
compared the two star periodicals
and came to The conclusion that
the two brothers ought to make
up" ADD shake hands.

DIR. William Oslcr made a
speech in the John Hopkins Uni
vcrsIty in which he stated that a
man performs the most mental
and manual labor between the age
If 2s and 90, and that all men a.
bove the age OF 90 should be chic
reformed or put to painless death
This philosophical" speech was
delivered by him upon his depart
ure from that institution TO be-
come the head OF the medical
school OF Oxford. Such philos-
ophy might be accepted by the
people in the middle ages, and
the professor should remember
tina, the world has approached an
era OF enlightmcnt and civiliza-
ton before he makes such somer-
saults which cast very bad light
on him as a pedagogue and think
or. We are willing to agree with
him on those views when he him
self reaches that ripe age of 90
and with the greatest pleasure let
him have the honor of being the
first man who. seeing that he is
useless in this world, sacrificed
himself for the good of the hui
man society. Forgive them; for
they know not what they are
doing.

SAILOR TAKES HIS LIFE
IN ASYLUM IN STOCKTON
Victim of Many ShipwreclKs Plans the
Deed With Remarkable
Cunning.

STOCKTON, March 6.--Alfredo
Mantovani, a sailor, sent to the Stock
ton Asylum last September from the
Marine Hospital in San Francisco,
committed suicide Saturday night by
hanging himself in his bedroom. He
planned and executed the deed with
remarkable cunning. Between rounds
Of the attendants he put his shirt over
the grating of the door, and then tied
about his waist a sack of sand used in
polishing the oiled floors. The rope
used to drag the sand about, he then
tied to the window bars, stood upon
the sill, pulled the shade down be-
hind his back and jumped off.
Mantovani was thirty-eight years of
age and leaves a wife and child In
Italy. The many shipwrecks which he
experienced brought about his con-
dition.

The Demand is Large and Farmers

american Tobacco Journal)
Practically no trading will be done
in farmers crops of peanuts until the
arrival of the new crop, as all of the
old crop of both Virginia and Span
ish nuts has been exhausted. There
are no Spanish goods in the hands of
either dealers or commission men in
the Norfolk market, and very small
stocks even with cleaners in Peters
burg, with the exception of one firm.
which has stock Nample for It's re-
ouirements. There has been slight
falling off in prices during the month,
Spanish now bringing $1.12 IL per
bushel for farmers grades. NO. l
Spanish shelled are quoted at cents,
and No. 2 at 4 cents per pound.
Farmers stock of Spanish has been
exhausted on the Weldon, N. c.,
market, and it is not thought car
load could be found in the State.
Prices remain firm. The prospects
are that the yield in the Weldon sec
ton Will be about the same as last
year.
The Wilmington. N. c., market has
been rather dull for several days, but
a bigger demand is looked for after
September 1. The outlook is bright
for an average crop.
st. Louis reports a very satisfactory
market with but light stocks in the
hands of distributors. There is a
steady consumptive demand. Span
ish shelled are still in urgent demand,
the recent advances not materially af-
fecting the trade for this variety.

CHANGED HIS MIND
Case of State VS.. Lucas, From Samp-
son, Presents Novel Point on
Appeal.

The case of State VS.. Lucas, from
Sampson. which will be argued in the
Supreme court next week, presents the
curious question of whether or not a
magistrate can repent after he has
bound over a defendant and call back
the case and sentence him SO as to
enable the defendant in the higher
court to rely on a plea of previous
conviction"
In the case in question the facts
We're that the defendant Lucas was
arrested and brought before the mag
istrate on the charge of assault with
serious injury. After hearing the evil
dence, the magistrate, being of the
opinion that he did not have jurisdic-
| ton, bound the defendant over to
| court.
| After taking this action, the mag
istrate looked further into the law and
decided that the case was one in which
he had exclusive jurisdiction.
Therefore, notwithstanding the fact
! that the case had passed from his
hands by his action taken at the frs
trial and bond given by the defendant
the magistrate recalled the case, con
| sidered it one of simple assault, anC
sentenced the defendants to pay &
fine of a dollar and the costs.
When the court met, however Il'
solicitor sent the matter on TO the
grand jury, true bill was found ana
despite the plea of previous convic
ton. the defendant was tried and con
lvicted, from which judgment he APP
pealed.
The question would seem to b'
whether the binding over by the mag
istrate will hold in the face of hi
subsequent finding that the facts Were
such as to bring the case within hi
exclusive jurisdiction.
