The Picking Gazette of recent date
gives two rescripts in connection with
criminals who ION account OF mad
ness" have killed their father and
grandfather, respectively. These words
are always added in such cases, for
the crime Of parricide is so heinous
that strictly speaking the whole popu-
lation of the city is responsible; the
city walls have to be razed and a new
site must be found elsewhere. In
Szechuan province there is a deserted
city, visible to travellers from the
river, where this law was once strict
~ carried out.

ADVICE from Biwabik is that Ted
dy has been compelled, through his
engagements in "hunting out" the
deceitful politicians who promise
one thing and do another, to forego
the pleasure of moose hunt in this
section the coming season. Teddy
might obtain special permit for
the slaughter of one an,lered mon
arch before the opening of the sea-
son, that he might enjoy moose

oratory prior to election in pointing

IT would appear, from all reports,
that the more or less honorable
Clarence b. Miller, who seeks re-
election on his record as an in
surgent or on some other pretext,
does not relish the dose of hot
tamale administered by Judge Ja-
ques in his arraignment of that
record in his political addresses,
the Judge telling in plain terms the
facts of Mr.. Millers's votes and ef-
forts in behalf of Cannon and Can
nonism. At that, however, ii is not
improba BILE that Mr.. Miller relishes
the statements of the Judge fully az

WITH the promised support of the

IT is noted that the more or less

finally responded to the call and
will "stump" the district in behalf
of his candidacy for reelection. We
