This Woman and This Man" a drama
of sentiment and laughter written by
Avery Hopgood and originally presented
in Philadelphia and later at the Maxine
Elliott theater in New York last season
and now running in London, has been
secured by Edgar Forrest for a road

Now that the law passed by the last
legislature of Nebraska, making a fiat
rate reduction of % per cent. on all
charges of express companies, has
been sustained by the United States
Supreme court, other states will doubt
less make attempts to have like law

Before the Legislature of Vermont
touches any law relating to express
companies it should either gain per
mission from those who control this
monopoly or be sure that the state
has the power to enforce its regulat
ions. The controlling express com
pany has for years treated Vermont
laws with contempt. On one occas
ion a few years since the express
management added one cent to each
local package, evidently for the dou
BILE purpose of showing resentment al
being interfered with and to make the
people pay for a slight advance in Its
tax rate, which has always been and
is now the lowest of any corporation
in the state. 1t is about time that
Vermont took hold of this express mo-
nopoly and regulated it in the inter
ests of the people, which would in
clude reasonable taxation and fair 10

Capital Punishment Ordered for 1888

St. Petersburg, Via Eydtkuhne, Oct.
29.-On thousand and thirty-eight per-
sons we're condemned to death
throughout European Russia during
The first nine months of the present
year and 447 of them were executed ac-
cording to official figures just made
public. No attempt was made by the
governmental conceal the figures but
such comment as gives them their
real significance would certainly not
be passed by the censorship and even
to offer 1t for transmission might be
dangerous.
Were the number of condemnations
only those of ordinary criminals the
large number would suggest no more
than condition of extraordinary law
lessness throughout the cars dom
inion The fact Is that capital pun
ishment is never inflicted in Russia
by the civil courts and that even the
most brutal murderers escape with
terms in Siberia.
The 447 persons who suffered death
between January | and September 80
were therefore political offenders who
were tried before military instead of
civil tribunals, for the express pur-
pose of making their execution posi-

nations has increased rapidly and that
