name of a Seneca Indian maiden,
whose life was lost in carrying a

adventure. John Langdon is the
hero, who was scout of Washing

His life on the Indian frontier, his
meeting Polly Brearly, their love
and finally their marriage, is all adj
mirably conceived and portrayed.
The wording, the phraseology, the
style is that of a writer and author
of many years of experience; it is
almost faultless. The whole is a
work that the author may we'll be
proud of, and alike every citizen of
DEBORAH. The book should be found

Barnsley's Thrilling Story.

Since his return home in this county
Charles Willard Barnsley has told the fol-
lowing story, the circumstances of which
caused his recent sudden disappearance
THE night of July 18th Iattended picnic
at 0lney, and about 10 O'Clock OF later
started to drive to the home of my uncle.
Charles Barnsley near Oakdale. with whom
| made my home. AS | reached a point
near my uncle's farm two men doomed up
in front of my team and one of them
covered me with revolver. The men
jumped into my buggy, and. pointing the
weapon at me. ordered me to drive to the
electric railway. Upon reaching the car
line the men embarrassed my horse and
turned the animal loose. was then COM
PEELED to board a car with them, being told
that if | said anything or made any outcry
whatever | would be shot.
II was compelled to accompany the men
to Union Station. Washington. where we
took train for Richmond, Va, reaching
there early the next morning. After leav-
ing the train we went to little house in
the slums of the town. was put into a
room on the second floor and one of the
men was left to guard me.
"A few days later was taken to Nor
folk, the trip being made at night. and
was taken out into the river and made to
work on dredging machine. Last Tues
day night my guard fell asleep and ! took
advantage of the opportunity to escape.

warrants. left here last Monday for Vir-
ginia to arrest the kidnappers If they can
be found
Barnsley says his captOrs never talked
in his presence. and he does not even know
their first names. One of them, he says,
has beard. He thinks he will be able to
identify them.
On Wednesday Barnsley admitted his
story above to be false. He made it up,
he said, to deceive his family.

ment and more progressive measures en-
acted in its stead.
1t is fraught with many evils in addition
to those mentioned because many of the
persons holding positions as justices of the
peace are not well informed as to the scope
of their authority, not discerning enough to
discriminate and do not possess the legal
learning to qualify them to act as fair, just
and impartial judges. At least three fourths
of their judgments are erroneous and are
devoid of any legal effect In the pursu-
ance of their duties they commit nearly as
many unlawful acts as they do lawful ones.
We have recently had in the adjoining
district the case of a justice performing a
marriage ceremony; another granting a
divorce and decreeing alimony.
Does any one believe that from July LIST,
1909, to June 30th, 1910, that there was
only $52.20 paid in fines, imposed by all
justices of the peace in the county, for one
year, That is the amount the county
books show. Where is the balance2 How
do this years receipts of $3.05799 COM
pare with the former years receipts?
Why are number of justices advocating
the repeal of this law if they are only
losing pro rata $3.50 according to the
records?
AOooiDly Il lew OC
made to the present law. Two occur to
me. One is an increase in fees for the at
tendance of witnesses. another for the
police justice to designate other places for
holding court outside of Rockville, where
his court will be more accessible.
But to repeal this act or give to all the
justices concurrent jurisdiction with the
circuit court in criminal cases not felonious
would be unwise, because the court docket
would be crowded with appeals, of which
nine tenths would be dismissed, as was
the case years ago when that system pre-
vailed
Such legislation would result in farcical
procedure. The old plan would be by far
the more preferable, no matter how cum
bersome, expensive and antiquated. II
would not be fraught with as many evil
tendencies.
There are some men now holding the
position as justices of the peace to whom
this power could be safely entrusted.
This condition of affairs was certainly
apparent to the members of the bar who
endorsed this bill when il was introduced
in the legislature and recommended its
enactment
1t certainly has proved to be good legis-
lation, and if ii were not, the court and
the members of the bar would condemn it
without hesitation. This they have not
done. Respectfully submitted,
JOHN A. GARRETT.
