DEBUT
AS A MONARCHY
Glad Event Is Celebrated in.
Constantinople With Big
Jubilee.

C~onstantinople, Dec. 1s.-Turkey made
her bow as a full fiedged constitutional
monarchy today, when the new Ottoman
parliament opened its first session. This
assembly was provided for in the consti-
tuition by Sultan Abdul Harnid last July.
and is the first body of its kline to meet in
the empire for over 30 years. The life Of
its only predecessor was brief, but great.
hopes are entertained for the success of
the newcomer.
Today was proclaimed a general holiday
In honor of the parliament. The decora-
lions are unprecedented, and most Of the
population is in the streets eagerly dis
GUESSING the prospects of the new regime.
Practically every regiment in the Consti-,
nople garrison lined the route under arms;
when the sultan drove to open the assem-
bly,, while school children along the way
sang hymns Of liberty as the cortege-
passed.
Sultan Abdul Hamid, who granted
the constitution last July providing for
this assembly, was everywhere greeted
with loud; cheering. here was no
sel1blance of disorder.

HANGED BY NECK
ON WINDOW SILL

Pukwan., S. D., Dec. Changing
by her neck from the outside OF the
school house window, neg. her home in
Charles Mix county, the 9-year-old
daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. o hui
bert was found by the anxious parents
when they went in search of her in
the early evening, after her return from
an errand had been delayed beyond a
reasonable time.
The little girl had intended to take a
book home to a neighbor girl. but had
passed the school house and gone on
her way nearly a half mile when she
evidently found that she had forgotten
to get the book, and returned to tho
school house near her home to get It.
As the door was locked she raised a
window and had craw!ed part way
through when the sash descended and
pinioned her by the neck in such a
manner that she could not extricate
herself. and was left hanging In that
position with her arms and legs out
side the window.
1t was evidently several hours after
the accident hat she was found by her
distracted parents and life was extinct.

F|REBUGS INFEST
TOWN AND SET TWO
FIRES SAME PLACE
Detectives Fail to Catch Mis-
creants Who Plan to Burn
Town of Brandon.

Sioux Falls, s. D., Dec. 23.-Faiiing
to profit by the fate of the firebugs
who recently were arrested at Canton,
and who are now safely behind prison
bars, human freaks of this character
are carrying on their operations at
Brandon, a small town about IL miles
northeast of Sioux Falls. The Brandon
firebugs have thus far succeeded in
Keeping their identity a secret, not
iWfthstanding persistent efforts on the
part of the authorities to apprehend
them.
The rasca1s on two occasions set fire
to the store building of Graft & Co,
which conducts II of the largest bust
ness establishments at Brandon, n "A
third attempt was made to fire the
building, but on the two occasions the
damage had been done. and on the
third occasion the tirebugs were
frightened away before they could ac-
icomplish their purpose.
Mr.. Graft was advised a few days
ago that another attempt was about to
be made to rob and burn his store
building. 1t was discovered that the
person who has been under suspicion
for some time of being the leader of
the gang of frebugs had purchased
drills and a quantity OF nitro-glycerin
for the blowing of the safe. Jack

Sioux Falls police department. and a
private detective from Chicago were
summoned to the scene and maintained
a close watch for the f1rebugs on the
night alleged to have been selected for
the robbery and burning of the store,
but no one appeared. the unknown ras-
calls evidently having been warned of
the presence of the officers. The sus-
pected parties now are under close
watch and arrests are expected to be
made within a few days.

OIL CASE APPEAL
TO SUPREME COURT
RIGHT B0NAPARTE
The Attorney General Proposes
Other Means of Facilitating
Course of Justice.

Washington, Dec. 21-That the United
States should have the right of appeal
to the supreme court of the United
states as a matter of right, whenever
n conviction is reversed on appea by.
the defendant to a. circuit court or APP
peals, is the opinion expressed ny AL
torney General Bonaparte In ms an
nual report for the fscal year endlng
June so. 1908, submitted to congress to-
day.
In this connection he cites the case OF
the reversal of the fine of more than.
500, 600, 900, in which an application Tor
the allowance of a Writ OF ceftforafA
has been made to the supreme court
lie holds that an amendment OF the
present statute would be appropriate In
the case of ali criminal proceedings, but
suggests thai it would be especially so
in connection with prosecutions where
the wealth OF the defendant usually
renders an appeal on his or It's part
from any adverse judgment a matter
of curse.
AS to Arrests.
THE United States has had occasion
OF late years, and will probably have
occasion in future" he declared, TO
prosecute criminally many corporations
or other artificial persons. AS such OF
tenders cannot be physically arrested.
it is obviously desired that a simple
and convenient form Of process shall be
prescribed by law to have the legal
effect of an actual arrest and ren1ov-
al to the trial district in the case of &
natural person.
In his opinion as a matter or justice
no good reason exists why a warrah5
of arrest issued by any court of the
United States should not be directly
executed in any part of the United
States. He asserts that it has been
found Thai certain districts constitute
fN. r~ontino1 ntlCpnCnG- anofJ1qr1pS fnr
certain classes of offenders against
federal statutes. He believes that there
should be a law giving committing
magistrates Of the United States au7
thority to issue search warrants when
stolen government property or any
property which 1t Is a crime against the
United States to misappropriate is be-
lieNed to be concealed.
