MASON SENTENCED.
Judge Waddill Imposes the Mini
mum Punishment.

In the United States District Court yes
.terday Judge Waddill sentenced Claude
w. Mason to six months in jail and I'M
posed a fine of $1,000, for permitting
distiller at Emporia to remove liquor IN
stamped from a bonded warehouse. Mason
was in the employment of the govern
ment as storekceper and gauger. and as
such was in charge of distillery run
by a man named Wilson. The jury found
Mason guilty. and the court inflicted the
minimum punishment provided by the
statute.
Mason is a young man Of good family
connections, and his offense is regarded
more in the nature of indiscretion than
a deliberate violation OF the laws. 1t IS
not unlikely that his counsel. Mr.. George
a. Hanson and Hon. Thomas n. Williams,
may take an appeal.

young girl raised in luxury and tired
of priyation.
In short, in presuming all things
possible to persuade himself that his
fears were chimerlcal, and that nus
rival would find Beatrice as infe1ible
as he himself had found her, Pierre
could not avoid either the poignant
misery or the foolish injustice of
jealousy.
He even had a grUdge against Fa-
b. -ce for a loyalty OF conduct before
which he was forced to bow, at the
same time he would have been happy
in the power to throw some bloody re-
proach in his face.
1t was thus, alas! with a sentiment
that bordered closely upon hatred that
he then walked away from the friend
Of his youth. He, upon his part, got
from their conference an equiVocal and
distressing sentiment. The courteous
language and the almost impressive
face the Marquis had not edceiVed
him in regard to the sort Of trouble,
and the GOODNESS with which his con
fidence was received.
But after having reflected he eX-
planned to himself that constrained at
titude. by reason which seemed to him
to be probable No doubt, at first
sight, there was something shocking
TO the mental habits of Pierrepont in
the thought of seeing a man Of the
most humble origin pretending to the
haid of a girl of high birth, who was
almost a relation of his.
1t was thus that more than once in
the course of their friendly relations,
Fabrice had felt, coming through the
amiable and liberal dilettanteism of
the Marquis, a point of aristocratic
protection which his friend played at
Mecene. The artist smiling like the
wise and just fellow that he was, IN
derstood that such failings were il,
the blood, and excused them yoluntar-
lily since with PierreDont they were q
veritale nobIeness of sentiment.
Upon that evening he wrote the
Baroness de Montauron thanking her
for her kind invitation and upon the
dav after the morrow he arrived at

TIE lNHALlNG VICE.

The London Lancet, leader of the
med cal lress, condemns the cigaret
because Of the ease with which it
is obtained and used. 1t seems such
a little thing that any crusade against
it appears rather ridiculous. And
yet it is not so much the form IN
which tobacco is used as the way it
is used that does the harm.
The trouble with the cigaret is
that the smoke is usually inhaled in
to the lungs, and thus comes into
contact with several square feet Of
lung surface, divided from the blood
by only a thin membrane, wnere
very rapid absorption takes place.
The cigar and pipe, or rather the
smoke therefrom, are brought in the
mouth into contact with only few
square inches of Notwithstanding
surface; thus, the amount actua,.y
absorbed, excepting that swallowed
into the stomach is small. This is
the real danger of the cigaret as the
system IS soon loaded with the mar
cotic products, and the nervous sys-
ten suffers serious damage.
The boy who inhales cigaret smoke
and how many of them smoke
without inhaling-is using tobacco in
q form that in the long run Is dead

MOSQUITOES DOOMED.
New Orleans Board of Health Has
Found the Combination.

New Orleans Board of Health Has
Found the Combination.
Experiments lasting a week resulted
in the discovery by r. C. Win, chief
sanitary officer of the city board Of
health, of a positive fumigant extermi
nator of the mosquito, combination
whose effectiveness excels that Of any
similar preparation ever gotten up
before to do away with the insect
says the New Orleans Picayune
Applied three hours and half in a
closed room the remedy will, without
fail, kill every mosquito in the apart
ment. 1t will permeate bedding and
other stuff under which the pest may
hide and at the same time it does not
possess the Objectionable qualit, OF
nearly all other preparations-that OF
being harmful to fine dress goods or
other delicate fabrics with which 1t
may come in contact.
1T is a positive success" said Mr..
Will, speaking in reference to his
work. There is no doubt aa to- Its

killer wherever it is applied. Further
more, it is the cheapest thing OF IT'S
kind yet compounded. The expert
ment is practically over, but win con
tinue on the work for several days
more to see if it is possible to cut the
price down a notch or two below the
present figure. That Is the only tbing
that has been delaying me in sending
in a final report to DR.. OReilly."
In going about the undertaking, Mr..
Win has used a small screened box
closed with netting all around except
for a small opening at the bottom.
The mosquitoes were placed in this
box and put in a closed room. The
fumigant was then applied
Health officials claim that this work
is not the fOrerunner Of any general

SPELLING REFORM ,.uToKY.

New York World-The partial adop-
ton of reformed spelling by Column
bia marks the capitulation Of an i'm
nortant university stronghold to the
new orthography. Columbia, to be
sure, was half persuaded from the
first but the official action taken by
it's trustees is none the less a tri-
umph. The cause is advancing. A
letter of congratulation from the
white house reformer-in-chief is due
Professor Brander Matthews.
Among the simplifed spellings
adopted, 23O out of the word-list ow
800 are anesthetic, ADJ, apothem, bur-
develop. envelop, con, esthetic, gage
gael, good+by, hiccup, molder, inter,
ocher, phenix, paraffin, questor, rhine,
saber, simiter and whisky. Rhine
saber and gael may occasion some
oualms. But there is cause for re-
ioicing that thru, thoro and their
kind were not inflicted on a helpless
public.
AS a matter of fact, the extent to
which spelling reform has progressed
without the. need of a flourish Of
trumpets is indicated by the lack of
offense to the eye now given by such
forms as estnetic, anesthetic, envelop,
paraffin, whisky, hiccup and molder
Molder and it's class, indeed, after a
quarter Of century of tolerance,
have come 20 appear to be the true
forms, though a contributor to the
anniversary number of the Atlantic
recalls the cOmmot on created when
these and other new spellings of the
Webster photography were adopted
in that periodical on it's change OF
ownership in the early seventies.
Another. generation Of a time and
labor saving nation may indorse word
parings and prunings yet unattempt-
ed by the boldest simplifer.
