As a fine point of law, it is said that while the man is responsible for drink ing up to certain point, at some cer- tain point he becomes irresponsible. Y Not so very long ago, in Denver, policeman who slew woman wan tonly in drunken frenzy was convicted despite the fine point of law. And the average point of view is that being drunk is no excuse for crime. The alcohol has revealed the man as he is, and he should pay the penalty.

The Arizona Republican says that it is expected Arizona will be represented this year in the nation. al military rifle tournament, which will be held at Camp Perry, near Cleveland, Ohio, the latter part O! August. A team of 2o men will be sent under charge of Maj. L. w. Coggins, inspector of rife practice, the members to be selected after a try out" at the summer encamp, ment of the national guard. All ex- pense attending the trip will be paid by the United States.
 It is probable the guard will be assembled early in August at camp Brodie, near granite Dells, seven miles northeast of Prescott, where two very satisfactory encampments have been held heretofore. The camp is directly on the Whipple Barracks target range, probablythe best attached to any military post in the southwest. There will be ample equipment for the riflemen, for there has just been received bv Adj. Gen. Leavell shipment of 2o,ooo pounds of ammunition, targets, target frames and range supplies. New uniforms and all other necessary equipments are on the way.
 At Austin, Texas, following the lesson learned at Camp Brodie, the camp of Arizona battalion was declared by far the best of sll the militia on the ground.

ANOTHER CONTEST WAGED
OVER MIDDLETOWN HOTEL
TEMPERANCE PEOPLE PUT UP A STRONG
FIGHT AGAINST RE LICENSING THE HOUSE
But Maxwell Wins When His Case Is Heard
Before The Judges-Bar Had Been Closed
Since McInlyre's Turn Down.

Chief Justice Lore and Judge Pen
newill, sitting in the Court of General
Sessions Saturday afternoon, granted
the liquor license application of Alex
ander Maxwell, for the Middletown
Hotel, at Middletown, against which
vigorous fight was waged in the morn
ing by the Law and Order Society and
a number of citizens of Middetown.
For a humber of years this hotel,
which is considered one of the best in
the State, was owned and conducted
by John P. Mcintyre At the Novem
ber term of court, when Mr.. Mcintyre
! came up for renewal of his license
there was remOnstrance against him.
After hearing a great deal of evidence
in the matter the court refused a Ii
cense to MIR. Mcintyre, and since that
time the bar of the hotel has been
closed. When Mr.. Maxwell, who
formerly conducted the Merritt House
at Front and French streets, Whining
ton, made his application for a license
for the hotel formerly run by Mr. Nc
Intyre, some of the citizens of Middle
town Immediately got up a remOn

DISCOVERY MAKES SMYRNA MAN RICH
J. w. Endean With Prof. Pittman Discovers
Varnish and Sell Process For a Sum of
$780, ,9OO-DIscOvers Liquid lnsuIatOr.


J. W. Endean supervising chief en-
gineer of the Smyrna, Kent County
and Delaware Bay Traction Company,
informs us that he, in collaboration
with Professor Thomas Pittman, mem
ber of the Chemical Society of London
and Berlin, and noted Professor of |
Chemistry, have discovered a most !
valuable process for manufacturing
high grade transparent varnlshes OF
very high lustre and fine finish, which
entirely dispenses with all firing and
application of heat, and eliminates the
necessity of ageing. 1t is well known
that all varnishes manufactured under
the, present known methods, have to
be cooked with the application of enor-
nous heat, after which it requires to
mature in large tanks and watts for
from three to five years. Under the
newly discovered process no heat what
ever is applied, and the varnish can be
used within three hours after the sew
| eral elements of manufacture have been
amalgamated. In connection with the
above discovery of which Mr.. Endean
owns a one third interest, word was
received from Professor Pittman by
Mr.. Endean an Friday last that syndi-
cate headed by Standard Oil Interests,
had made an offer to secure the secret
process for the sum of $3.50, 900 payable
800, 900 down and $4,000 annual y
for ten years, and if Mr.. Endean haC
no objection to offer he was requested
to send his written authority to have
the sale consummated. This was i'm
mediately done and as soou as the lega
requirements have been met, the trans
fer of the process to the syndicate will
be effected, and the consideration paid
over. Mr.. Endean in conjunction wit
Professor Pittman has also perfecte
