sight when they are between 40 md

He was a strict Presbyterian, ever ready to help pastor and church. He mar ried In 1898 a maiden of 16. Miss Susan Ann Elliott. who was here with her aunt, one of the early settlers of Mont gomery.

Philadelphia Record4
 Magistrate Hughes. who is achieving a great reputation among the foreign population downtown for the Solomon like wisdom with which he smoothes out the petty differences that often cause of discord among neighbors, was called upon yesterday to pass upon two such cases that were brought before him from the gentle confines of Mercy Street. In the first he was asked to decide the ownership of dog that was claimed by a man and woman. Mrs. Mary Crane, of No. 2S Mercy Street, had caused the arrest of Patrick OMal- ley, of Front and Mercy Streets, whom she acused of stealing her pet. When that they owned the dog, the Magis- trate put it up to that intelligent ani- mai to decide. It leaped into the wo- mans arms and she was awarded its ownership.

 St. Petersburg, Sept. 9,-Premier stolypin's project of local self-govern- ment has been badly received by the reactionists at the Zemstvo Congress in Moscow. The project proposes to re- place the communes by small zemstvos, in which persons of all ranks. peasants. priests and, landlords shall cooperate on equal terms, each of these zemstVos exercising police functions.
 The Liberals expressed satisfaction with the project as a whole, but intro duced amendments providing that wo- men shall be entitled to membership in the zemstvo with the right to vote and opposed the proposition to give the zemstvos police functions, on the ground that they would be freed from administrative control if they had nothing to do with police work.
