WOMAN Raves
IN THE JAIL

A colored woman, aged about 25
years, said to be Mary Martin by
name, Is in the county jail awaiting
an examination as to her sanity. She
was arrested at 0'Neil by Constable
'E. H. Rogers. Her condition is
most pitiable. II is utterly impos-
sible for the Jail authorities to keep
her dressed. Every time they dress
her, she tears her clothing into
shreds and persists in being perfect
Nv nude. Justice NJ. S. Riley has
the case but is puzzled to know
when and how to act as it is not
definitely known whether she is a
Of this state. TITS said she
has two sisters insthe county, one Of
whom resides at 0'Neil.
This is the same woman the police
authorities arrested q month ago al
the depot and jailed fora few DAYS.
Then she was apparently somewhat
demented but after being in jail a
few days she grew rational, and was
discharged. Upon her first arrest
she claimed in her mutterilgs that
she had come from Pennsvlvania
and was enroutee to see a friend at
Adamston.

DAVID
IS INDIGNANT

Squire j. N. David is said to be
very indignant and from all ac-
counts justly so for the treatment
he received Wednesday from local
daily concerning the release of al
legged Illegal voters. 1t is intimated
BY the sheet referred to that the
Squire was not diseharging his
duties in a proper manner.
The truth Of it is that the Squire
had not a thing to do with the trials
Of the men brought before him.
Technically the instruments were
not legal. The WARRANT in the
Smithers case was sued out BY j.
Hornor Davis before q. Thad Post
as a notary public. II is held that
Post had no power under the law to
issue the warrant.
The one against D. w Davis was
on an affidavit bY J. Hornor DAVIS
and signed by .. Thad Post, who,
however, neglected to affix TO the
same his Official capacity. Both
warrants we're dismissed on the mo-
tipn Of the state because of insult
ficiency.
A commissioner OF elections has
no right to issue a warrant but can,
on The affidavit of a voter, have an
illegal one arrested, but can not issue
The warrant himself. Squire David
merely passed on the cases as the
statutes direct.
