In the preliminary hearing of W.

at Russell last Friday before Justice
Shockley, resulted in Henzell being
bound over to the district court in
the sum of one thousand dollars.
He was charged with selling and dis
posing Of grain as warehouseman,
without authority from the holder of
grain tickets. The grain had been
stored in the warehouse by George
Gamble of near Russell.
An eastern exchange says; Bore
a quarter-inch hole into the heart of
fruit tree or any other kind of a
tree that is infected with insects and
fill the hole full of dry sulphur and
plug up the hole. 1t will cure the
blight, make the tree strong and
healthy, and in no wise injure it.
The sulphur goes through all parts
of the tree, being absorbed from the
heart and giving the tree a good
healthy color.

A NICE QUESTION.

It will be remembered that the judge who is presiding in the Carmack murder trial felt himself called on to deal with the subject of drunkenness in the case of a juror. If we remem- Der correctly he laid down the propo- sition that "a man is drunk when he Is so much under the influence of Ii- ouor that he becomes a nuisance to the general public" That is a judicial opinion, and we notice that the State of Connecticut is endeavoring to have a bill passed that will surely bring the question up before the courts of that State If it becomes law. A bill has been introduced into the Legislature making it a crime for a street railway company to accept an intoxicated per son for transportation.
 If this bill becomes a law, and its enforcement is attempted in good faith We can easily see what trouble some complications are likely to come up in the courts of that State. When is a man drunk? and. what does it take to constitute drunkenness? are two conundrums that will have to be solved and other sections will be in- terested in their solution.
 'No absolute test of drunkenness has yet been invented" says The Hart ford Times. "The types of inebriety are various. Tn many cases the fact of intoxication is obvious; in other cases, merely conjectural. A person who is intoxicated may be so quiet and so undisturbed and undisturbing that he is comparatively inorfensive and his jag commands no public mo- tice, while another person who has i'm bibed not wisely but too well may

HE WOULDN'T TELL.

Recently when Col Goethals. the ar- my engineer having charge of the
 work at Panama was asked by a com
 mittee how. much he thought the canal
 would cost he excused himself from answering the question, because" as he expressed it, "I do not want the question to come up in the press.'' was not that very much of a dead
 give away? He knows if the press gets at the facts the American public
 will be enlightened, and publicity is
 what the canal managers do not want.
 s.The press," comments The New York
 Herald, represents the people; 1t is
 the peoples money that is being sunk
 in the big ditch, and the people are
 entitled to know how much they will be called upon to furnish if the work is to go on along the present lines"
 That is very true. and we agree with The Hartford Times that "There lis something silly in all this effort to
 hide from the people the truth about the peoples business. When the paid agents of the people begin to talk about keeping information out of the press they only arouse curiosity and make publicity inevitable." It is to be hoped that MT. Taft and his en-
 gineers will be able to give the pub lie something definite and satisfactory,
 but there has been so much nest-hid-
 ing going on in that business that we
 can hardly expect the whole truth to
 come out about it. however anxious Mir. Taft may be to give out the facts.

take up the whole sidewalk. emit vul- gar language and play the part of an internal nuisance. Then, again, if person is on the borderland of in- toxication dispute often arises as to whether he Is drunk or not. A patrol man may not be able to give a scien- tific definition of drunkenness, but, in the exercise of his judgment. he rare- ly makes a biunder in the matter of jag arrests. A police court judge might find it hard to write out a satisfactory description of drunken ness, but he doesn't often err in de- ciding whether a man accused of in- ebriety is guilty or not.
 "A trolley passenger who is bolster ousiy drunk is a, nuisance, an offense against decency and an affront to sober travellers. Trolley conductors are assumed to exercise discretion and to keep extensively intoxicated per- sons off the car. The rights of the sober passenger are entitled to pref erepce and should be reasonably safe- guarded. whether further Legislation is needed or whether enough can be accomplished through enforcement of the rules of street railway companies is a debatable question"

COMPLICATIONS AHEAD.

The Hartford Courant discusses some of the possible complications that may come through and because of the navigation of the air. It has always been understood that when a man owns land and has a deed to it he has a title from zenith to. nadir," as it is sometimes expressed; that is to say, he owns from the centre of the. earth to the highest point in the heavens. No other person. or even the government. has 2 right to dig tunnel or other excavation beneath him or to build a house or bridge above him without his consent, or without compensating him for the same.
 But the right of a land owner to the air above him, as has always been admitted, calls to mind, as The Cour- ant says, "the question that is sure to arise in case aerial navigation is made practicable. What right has Mir. Baliooner to cross your premises without your consent? No matter if he crosses at a great height, never theless he is crossing just the same. Indeed. 1t is conceivable that the greater the height the greater the outrage for comparatively light ob- jects dropped from great height &C., quire such velocity as to become dan generous. A cork screw or a pocket knife dropped from height of a cou- pie of miles would come down with such a. force as to be fatal to who ever happened to be directly under meath. And yet that person might be sitting out in his own back yard, mon- arch of all he surveyed-provided the fence was high enough. This is enough to suggest some of the com plications that would come along with practicable airships."
 The Courant's comments are. cer- tainly of interest, in view of the fact that such great and persistent efforts are being made to navigate the air successfully and safely. With air. ships of various kinds and sizes sail- ing overhead how can any one feel sure that he may not have his head cracked by some falling object pur- posely or accidentally dropped from on high? As The Courant says, a very small object coming from a great al- titude might be very unpleasant to one on whom it might fall, and those who manage and ride in such ma chimes cannot in all cases avoid drop ping something, however careful they may be. The man who thinks his title extends upward without limit may find himself unable to control the at- mosphere above him, or to apprehend intruders, or to get compensation for damage that may be done him. We foresee complications ahead when the air becomes Na public highway.

The New York Globe calls attention to the fact that during the month of January the expenditures of the gov ernment exceeded its receipts by near ly sixteen million dollars, and 1t con cludes that an estimated deficit of one hundred and fourteen million dollars for the present fiscal year is a con servative one. Well. there's nothing strange about it, is thereg We have an administration and a Congress that believes in spending money. and the future must look out for itself Be- sides, we are to have some new battle ships, let us remember.
