under orders and were armed. They were in the employ of the railway company for protection of its men and property. There was committee of strikers at the de. pot that directed at the defendants abusive language. They were ar. rested within five minutes after crossing the line while escorting to the line the men they had come to meet.
 Sheriff Saxon was put upon the stand in rebuttal. He testified that at the time of the strike every. thing was quiet and peaceful, and that there was no danger of any violence, that he and his deputy had the situation in hand and there was no need of the employes of the company arming them, selves. On cross-examinatiOn Mir. Saxon admitted that the railroad agent had, by alleged order of his superiors, asked that he the sheriff. deputize officers, to be paid by the company to protect it's prop. erty and employees, which he had declined to do, as he considered there was no necessity for such course.
 In sur-rebuttal Assistant Su- perintendent J. T. Kingshury was placed upon the stand. He testi. fled that for a week the com pany had to keep all of it's locomo. tives on the Mexican side of the line, for the reason that they could not get their new enginemen to bring them across the line down through the yard to the round house, especially at night: that the switch engine had been rocked, and for several nights the train to go north in the morning could not be made up after it's arrival, for the reason that the switch engine would not work at night on the American side of the line. In his official capacity the witness had ordered the company's agent MT Sanders, to request the sheriff 10 deputize men, at the company's expense to go down through the yard with engines, going to and re- turning from the round house and the Mexican line, and that the sheriff had declined to do as re. quested flor which reason the locomotives were kept on the Mex ican side of the line, until Cover nor Sloan did what the sheriff re. fused to do, and sent two special policemen to protect the company's men and property.
 The space available will not per. init an extended reproduction of Judge Doan's ruling sustaining the appeal and ordering the fines re- mitted. The substance was that the evidence went to show that the railway company had a right to the protection of the law for its men and it's property, that the sherff's office had been remiss in affording that protection, that the accused were on the company's property at the time of the arrest, that they had reason to fear vio- fence, that they had a right to be prepared to defend themselves if violence should be offered, and that in making the arrest the officer had exceeded his autority.

answered him nothing. And the chief priests and sCribes stood and vehement ly accused him. And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked him, and arrayed him in gOr- geo+ robe, and sent him again to Pilate And the same day PilaIe and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between them selves. And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people, said unto them, Ye have brought this man unto me, as one that perverteth the people: and, behold, l, having examined him before you, have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof ye accuse him: no, nor yet HerOd for sent you to him; and, To, nothing worthy oi death IS done unto him. l will therefore chastise him. and release hin.

And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified And the the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed And Pilate gave sem tenee that it should be as they required. And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was cast into prison, whom they had desired but he delivered Jesus Jo their will.
 Now then if that is not a clear and lucid account of an applica- ton of the ocalled progressive principles of government, where may one be found?
 "The whole multitude arose and led him unto Pilate." That was the initiative.
 "Then said Pilate to the chief priests and the people, l find no fault in this man. And they were the more fierce" And again: "Pilate when he had called to- gether the chief priests and the rulers and the people said unto them, ye have brought this man unto me as one who perverted the people: and behold, l, having ex. amined him before you have found no faul! with this man touching those things whereof ye accused bim: no, nor yet Herod: for 1 sent you to him: and To nothing worthy of death Is done unto Him." That was the referendum.
 "And they cried out all at once saying, away with this man and release unto us Barabbas: (who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder was cast into prison)." That was the recall.
 "Plate therefore willing to re. lease Jesus, spake again to them. But they cried saying, Cruelty him, cruelty him. And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil hath he done?

Chinese Names.

Readers who are confused by the
names of places and other objects
found in accounts OF the revolution
in China may simplify the difficulty
10 some extent by keeping in mind a
few elementary rules. One. thing to
remember is that the name of place
il China is always pictorially descrip'
tive. For example, when the name of
a Chinese city ends in king" or kin
ii means that the place is a metropo-
lis. A city whose name ends in "fu"
IS the capital OF province, and cities
whose names end with Chou or
"chu" are cities of the second class.
"Kiang' is the Chinese word for riv-
err, and so is "ho;" hal is a sea or
lake. tao" means an island, ling
is a mountain pass, shan" is a noun
tain and "kuan' is fortified PLACE
or military camp. The word men
in Chinese means a gate. ia" means
great "siao" means small and 'ipai"
means white The Chr csc claim that
theirs is the simplest language in the
world

Passenger on Steamer That Runs on
Rocks Off SANTANA Island.
New York, Nov. %. = William J.
Bryan, his wife and grandchild and
eighty-four other passengers on the
steamship Prinz Joachim, ashore on
the rocks off SANTANA Island, will be
transferred to the Ward line steam
ships Seguranca ano Vigilancia.
There Is little apprehension felt for
the safety of the vessel or the passen-
gers, the line officials said, but in
view of the delay it was deemed best
to get the passengers off the ship and
send them on their voyage.
AS soon as the transfer is made the
passengers will be taken back to Mas
sau, which is in the immediate neigh
borhood, and the journey will be con-
tinued from that point. The vessel to
complete the trip has not yet been
selected.
The Seguranca left Santiago after
the accident and proceeded at top
speed to the Prinz Joachim. She came
alongside the wrecked vessel. Later
advices from the scene of the wreck
are to the effect that the sea Is easy.

The man who knocks his home town
ought TO be punished. But the fellow
who Is n knocl-er and does not realize

The town knocker is a man in most
cases who would rather be a booster
than a knocker He Knows he is not
booster; he could not tell why and
he never stopped to realize that
every man is either a booster or
krocker.
The man who believes in Martins
burg is a booster,
Some boosters are too modest
however.
AS a matter OF fact boosting IS in
fictitious.
Like the measles, it is catching.
But one does not soon overcome
the infection il one is a real booster.
1t is easier and much more popu-
lar to be a booster than a kaocker-
and infinitely more profitable!

PUTTING A town ON THE NAP.

moneys worth.
