To The Public.

The Cherapeake & Ohio Rail-
way Company has gone to a large
expense in building for its patrons
at Mt. Sterling, a new and COM
modious passenger depot. The
room at the west end has been set
apart for the exclusive use of COL
ored people, and the middle room
for white people, as required by
law. As an additional feature,
which is not required by law, the
Company has constructed a room
at the east end for the exclusive
use of the ladies with toilet at
tached. No gentleman is expect
ed or should desire to be in this
room, and in order to improve the
Company's service, as we'll as to
show our appreciation of this
great public improvement, it is
hoped that the Company's rules
will be strictly observed by all.
Respectfully,
w. A. SAMUELS, Mayor.

END OF SPECIAL JUDGES,


when the Legislature passed
me Special Judge bill, it took a
Is@g step forward. The law will
rssalt in great good to the State
sad people. In the first place, it
ca7ses the salaries of the Circuit
Judges to standard that will at
Eszet she very best legal talent in
she country districts, where its
operations will be chiefly felt.
5sw successful lawyers, unless
possessed of an independent in
oonGe, can afford to spend the very
}ess years of their lives on the
1e'1eh at $4,000 year. To de-
5'ay their expenses while holding
.g9re in distant counties, away
{-Urn home, and to rear and edu-
,ssse bheir children, in these times
PIG high-priced living, it takes all
he State pays. Under the pre-
nBling system there is no posi-
a5g.>y of the Circuit judges saving
myEhing out of their salaries for
l18 age or other infrmities.
IN the next place, the effect of
sbis act will be to practically abol-
ID for all time to come the Spe-
eial Judge, an officer not sanction
nj by our democratic form Of !
government. Litigants are en-
si,Ied to Justice administered by a !
uai cOurt--a court created by the
A'S2sGitution and presided over by |
y .gege elected by the people and
commissioned by the Governor.
There is a stability and certainty
about the newIplan which appeals
10 every thoughtful citizen, and
ne have no doubt that much sub
slBntial good will flow from this
exceedingly sensible piece of legis-

DO NOT SELL RUM.
Advice Of Bishop of st. John to
Catholics.

The Lenten pastoral letter of the
Rt. Rev. T. Casey, Catholic bishop
of st. John. N. B., read in the
churches of the diocese, caused a
stir by it's strong announcement
against the liquor traffic, his words
being declared the most severe ar
raignment of the liquor business
ever given in official Catholic ut
terances in the maritime provinces,
perhaps in Canada, and culminat-
ing in what is looked on as a direct
call to every Catholic in the liquor
business to give it up.
The pastoral was peculiarly of
interest in the st. John city por-
ton of the diocese, as nearly all j
the sixty-four retail liquor dealers
here are of the Catholic faith. 1t
read, in part:
mot less guilty before God than
the unfortunate drunkard himself
is the false friend or the barkeeper
who places temptation in his way"
AS a means of lessening the temp
tation to drink, the letter states:
1--WE look with favor on the efforts
to limit the number of liquor stores
and to see that the principles Of
Christian morality are observed" -
IF not in itself a sin to sell wine
or spirits, the business is danger
Gus to such an extent that only the
great profits accruing can make
men unmindful of their risk of
.perdition."

Sad Tragedy.

Bolton Owen, a brick and stone
mason, committed suicide at Win
chester Sunday afternoon BY
shooting himself with rifle. He
left the house at four o'clock and
three hours later the body was
found under the house. He leaves
wife and several children. No
motive is known unless it was de-
spondency, caused by sickness in
the family, and being out of en-
ployment.
