gun the work of buoying the beds. the first
to have their outlines defined being In the
Severn river below Annapolis. As soon as
the weather becomes warmer, so that the
parties can work out of doors, the marking
OF Of the oyster beds will proceed rapidly,
and by the end Of the coming summer the
bulk OF the work on the Chesapeake will be
well underway. In marking the oyster
grounds pine saplings are used as stakes
for the inner-shore boundaries. and for the
deep water side of the beds, floating buoys
OF wood. held down by concrete sinkers
are used. The sinkers used In the rivers
will weigh $50 pounds, but along the bay
shores sinkers 500 pounds In weight are be-

JACKSON, Miss, February 25.-The state
supreme court, in decision handed down.
holds that the small boy has an inalienable
right to climb trees.
A boy at McComb City climbed a small
oak tree on which an electric wire was at
tached. He was shocked and badly burned
by the wire, and his parents entered suit
for damages. The company set up that it
could not anticipate that a boy would climb
the tree, and therefore 1t was not liable.
The company lost in the lower court and
appealed.
The supreme court, however, sustained
the verdict the ground that climbing
trees is the right of boyhood, and there
fore the company is liable.

MRS. GRAY STEELE DEAD.

News reached the city yesterday
of the death of Mrs. Gray Steele,
wife of Gray Steele, one of the best
known and most popular engineers
on the Rio Grande system. The
death occurred at the railroad hos
pital in Salida.
For several years Mrs. Steele had
been in very poor health. Recently
she was taken to Salida to have per-
formed delicate operation neces-
sary to prolong her life. She was
too weak to withstand the effects of
the operation, and death ended her
sufferings.
The remains will probably be
brought to Grand Junction for bur-
ial
The announcement of the death
brings sorrow to many hearts, for
the deceased was generally beloved.
She was woman of admirable quail
tiles and she bore her suffering with
great fortitude. AS Miss Belle Fish
er, member of one of the Oldest
families of the city, the deceased was
very popular in social circles. The
greater portion of her life was spent
In Grand Junction.
The young husband, in his hours
of intense sorrow, has the sympathy
of a great host of friends.

ISN'T THIS UP TO DATE?

In its desperate efforts to fill up
its columns by the use of scissors,
and without making any effort to
get any real local or telegraphic
news. the Morning Yellow continues
to hand out its few readers each day
matter that was news several days
or several weeks ago.
This morning there appeared in
the pumpkin,hued sheet dispatch
to the effect that an effort is being
made in Denver to send Bryan's 8
daughter to the national convention
and have her place her fathers
name before the assembled demo-
Gratis. Over a week ago this dis
patch appeared in all enterprising
dailies and The Sentinel commented
upon the dispatch several days ago.
Again this morning the sheet
handed out dispatch from Jacobs

great mine horror. The date line
had been changed and 1t was de-

MUSSER FOR THE
STATE SUPREME COURT

Owing to the fact that there are
four candidates for the Supreme
Court to be nominated next fall, it
will be possible to select good timber
and at the same time give proper re-
presentation to all sections of the
state. Ell Paso county should have
one of these places and the Demo-
Gratis would like to see Geo. w. Mus
ser named No man has worked
longer or more faithfully for his par
ty than he, and no man in the party
has been more willing to make per-
sonal and party concessions In the
interest of victory. AT the last elect
ion he led his ticket and for days the
opposition conceded his election.
Many of his admirers yet believe he
was fairly elected. All concede that.
but for blunders made In scratching
whereby hundreds of republican vot-
ers who desired to vote for him threw
away their ballots, he would have car
ried the district by handsome ma
jority. There is no Democrat III
this judicial district who can poll
more Independent and Republican
votes. His strength. in this partic-
ular is not due to any wavering on
his part, but the universal belief
that Musser is capable, fearless, ard
above all, absolutely honest.
In matters of probate, real estate
and irrigation law Mr.. Musser Is an
authority. He is moreover strong in
fraternal circles. where he has en-
joyed almost every honor that could
be bestowed. Mr.. Musser is in the
prime of life and has enjoyed the ad-
vantage of more than twenty years of
active practica at the bar His DOD-
ularity in the profession is attested
by the fact that he was the organic
er and first president of the local
bar association. The Democrat has
no knowledge whatever as to wheth-
re Mr.. Musser desires the nomination
for supreme court Judge, but 1t
knows he would make a strong can
date and capable official. 1t is pure
ly for these reasons we heartily ad-
vocate his nomination.-El Paso

comfort that more money can COM

The value of the packages sent by

said to be about $7.400,000- The
number of packages sent out OF the
city this year is about eight per cent
greater than last year, while 1t is es-
timated that the value is Is per cent
less. This decrease in value is said
to be due to the fact that goods are
cheaper this year and that people are
more careful in the expenditure of
money New York always gives more
than it receives and it is estimated
that not more than 100000 par
cells have been received.
Next to the postoffice and express
offices the busiest place in the city
during the past few days has been
the customs appraisers warehouse.
Here all the packages received by
parcels post from England and Ger
many are examined for dutiable ar
ticles. Up to last night 10000 pa

the receiving clerks were forced to
stop work last night nearly 1000
packages were left Oh the tables un-
