EDITORIAL NOTES.
DEMOCRATIC gallantry la commendable.
No lnily will lie allowed to slave herselt
to death for the public welfars aa long
an there is an able-bodied representative
of the unterritied to occupy her place.
THE bugaboo of an extra session of
the legislature was upheld before the
eyes of the people Inst week. Although
the statement was unauthorized, it is
problematical whether the average tax
paver will regain his appetite in time to
pay that attention to the Thanksgiving
turkey which the importance of the oc-casion
demands.
THE statesmen are girding up their
loins preparatory to entering upon a set-tlement
of the issues of the day in Con-gress.
Free traders are going to try an-other
revision of the tariff if they can,
while the ordination of a bi-metallic
standard of coinage will be sprung by
the silver advocates. The coming ses-sion
of Congress bids fair to be a busy
one. The ltepublicaus will closely
scrutinize the appointments of the Pres-ident,
and the Senate, not being in polit-ical
accord, will hold the balance of
power. No change in the tariff inimical
to manufacturing interests can be made,
but the country has witnessed enough
results of the last tinkering to pray for
a pause on the tariff question.
COLONEL BT.AKEI.V, who WHB tlie legal
counsellor of the western division of the
Mnrraysville rioters, was, on Saturday’
cleared of the charge of murder in the
second degree and of manslaughter,
.lust, bow the jury arrived at such a con-clusion
is dillicult to imagine, lint their
verdict hath gone upon the record and
the Colonel, who w itnessed the battle
from afar, is to be congratulated upon
giving counsel at long range. The prob-abilities
are that this will end the trial
of any more of tiie men still under in-dictment.
Those remaining had even
less connection with Haymaker's death
than those who have answered for the
crime. Of the principals, the active
cause of the slaughter is in the peniten-tiary,
Weston is fighting liis way out of
the jaws of the penitentiary, backed by
plenty of money and handicapped by a
verdict of his fitness for State's prison,
while Colonel Blakely goes free.
The question still remains to lie deter-mined
whether the law’s treatment of
outrageous assaults upon justice is of a
character to prevent repetitions of tiie
Mnrraysville murder, or, on the other
hand, an incentive to call in the aid of tiie
bayonet to settle disputes which an or-dinary
life-time would fail to Beo ad-vanced

courts.
A DIIMHIIIK I.Ink.
CANTON, <)., November 23, '85.
KPITOR JOURNAL.—Through the polite-ness
of Mrs. C. W, Chapman, of this
city, my attention was called to tiie ob-servations
of ‘Lounger” as published in
the JOURNAL of November 3,in reference
to the McCall mill, on Jacob’s Creek.
My grandfather, Barnabas McCall, set-tled
on a large tract of land whereon the
mill was built. My father, Hobcrt Mc-
Call, was born on the premises July 7,
1776. I have frequently heard him say
that he did the millwright work for that
mill in the nineteenth year of his age,
from which we would infer it was built in
the year 179*'>, In tiie division of the
property, after my grandfather’s death,
the mill descended to Richard McCall,
my father’s brother. Richard dying in-testate,
the property fell to my fattier
ami his sister Margaret, then married
to J'.lias Peterson. Tiie property ulti-mately
fell to Peterson, who sold to
either Lobingier or Blystoue.
Such is tiie authentic history of the
McCall mill till sold by Peterson.
Yours respectfully,
THOMAS MCCALL.
AmiiKfnirnt Notes.
The musical and literary entertain-ment,
given ill the Middle church,Thurs-day
evening, was repeated the following

of Pittsburg, were of a high order,
and the singing by tho class plainly
showed the result of careful preparation.
The attendance on both evenings was
somewhat lessened by the inclemency
of the weather.
Harrlgan’s Tourist’s Company drew a
fair sized audience to National Hull, Fri-day
evening. The performance was
above the average given by traveling
troupes.
About two hundred people took in tho
colorod minstrel show, in National Hall,
{Saturday evening,and all wont away well
pleased after the program was exhaust-ed.
The general opinion was that "Dad”
Murray, one of the happy “coou” quin-tette,
carried oil'the honors. This troupe
intends giving an entertainment ut Sto-n
’rv111. Thursday evening next.
John Howorth with hfs Hihemlca,

witliMt. Pleasant audiences. It is only
noeessarj’ to add that “Silly Billy” is
along and is funnier than ever, lienor-ypd

On Friday evening next, in the new
Kehool Hall, Col. Sanford will deliver

GRAND JURY REPORT.
To Hon, James A. Hunter, President
Judge of die Courts of Westmoreland
county :
We, the members of tho Grand Jury
at Nov. term of court, respectfully re-port
to your Honor, that we have exam-ined
and passed upon nil bills of indict-ment
piesented to us by the District
Attorney. We have held sessions reg-ularly
every day except Wednesday

account of the absence of witnesses. We
visited the County Home and were
shown through the entire building by
the courteous Steward. Wo are pleased
to state that we found all departments of
the Home clean, tidy and comfortable,
and the condition of tho inmates all that
could ho desired under tho circum-stances.
Wo found the Lullding in good
condition, except a leak in tho roof,
whloh Is being repaired. We found the
boilers situated a considerable distance
from the main building,and the machin-ery
in good repair and in the hands of
a competent engineer. We saw the re-port
of the products of tho farm for the
present year, which leads us to believe
that it is well managed. The condition
of the stock is satisfactory. We a’so vis-ited
tho county Jail and found the build-ing
in good repair, with the exception of
the passage way from tho jail to tho
court house, which Is defective in dral-dage—
overflowing in wet weather. The j
condition of the prlsonere seemed to he
satisfactory. We are glad to see that
the county commissioners have acted
upon tho recommendation of a former
grand jury and have under process of
erection a privy for the uso of those
whoso business takes them to the
court house, as it is very badly needed.
Our thanks are due to your Honor at.d
also to the District Attorney for your
kindness and advice, which greatly as-sisted
us in tiie discharge of our duties.
Wo also wish to extend our thanks to
the officers in cKurge of tho County
Home and jail for courtesies extended to

A Lover’s Ruse.
The following spoils the blood curd;
ling panther stories of Bedford county,
that have beon going the rounds of the
press:
Two young men in the southern part
of Bedford county were in love with the
same girl, and went to see her on alter-nate
nights. One of them put up a job
on tho otbor, and laid for his rival. He
elimed a tree overhanging the road along
which his rival was to pass on his way to
see the girl, and when lie came along,
whistling merrily, on horseback, he
dropped a small dog on tho horseman.
Ofcourse the dog ki-yi-gdaqd the rider
was almost scared out of his wits, so
much so that lie kept his Uouso for two
weeks. Meanwhile the other fellow had
a bonanza time courting the girl. At
last the fellow who was frightened again
ventured out. This time the bold, bad
man who played the dog trick armed-yes,
armed—himself with a Thomas cat,
and again he climbed a tree. When the
innocent came ambling guily ulong he
dropped the cut plump down on him,
and there was what you might call a
devil ofa racket, and tho lellow on the
liorso got an aggravated caso of Jim
James. Ho spread tho story that a pan-ther
had Jumped on him from u treo,
and it got to the long ears of the sensa-tional
correspondent. A young man in
the vicinity happone 1 to die ju'st about
that time, and the correspondent put the
i*o together and made quite a romance
—romance is a mild term. Other peo-ple
might call it a lie. But that is Die
Bedford county panther story.

The I>nii|fliter of a t'nltrd llrrthren Mln-later
In uu A|i|inrenlly Ilopclrsfl Coil-dltlon
Itriitored lo Health by Prayer
Many of our readers will remember
Rev. J. B. Healer, who some years ago
served as pastor of the United Brethren
church in this place. Mr. Healer iB
married to a sister of Mrs. J. B.
Jordan, of Mt. Pleasant, and his son,
lt"V. John ltesler, is aj pastor at Brad-dock,
while his daughter, Laura, is the
wife of Rev. I . A. Imos, Professor of
Modern History uml (termini in tlieCo -
lege at Toledo, Iowa. Three years ag
Professor and Mrs. Loos were united i
marriage and immediately after the wed-ding
tiie young couple went to Germany,
where the Professor completed ills stud-ies.
A yenr afterward a babe was horn
and after the birth, Mrs. Loos’ health
gave way and she became nn invalid.
The couple returned to this country,
where Mr. Loos accepted the profes-sorship
in the Toledo eollege. The in-valid's
health was not benefitted by the
change and, as the months lolled by,she
became weaker an 1 weaker. Last Fall
it became evident to herself and her
friends that she could not expect to live
much longer. A harassing cough racked
her frame, her lungs were wasting aivav
with an internal fever, and her whole
system seemed to be in a stale of disso-lution.
Strange to relate, a wonderful change
lias taken place, ami we have been iier-mitted
to take the story of the cure by
faith from a private letter written by tiie
lady herself. At the time of the meet-ing
of tho Methodist Conference at To-ledo,
Mrs. I.oos had become so feeble
that she had to he helped about her
room. A lady physician in attendance
on tiie Conference called to see her and
told her friends that no earthly power
could save her after learning tiie particu-lars
of her disease. On the following
day the Professor dismissed his classes
ami stayed with his wife, as they thought
that the epd was near. Their pastor
called during the day and prayed witli
the sorely stricken woman and her hus-band.
In iiis prayer the pastor spoke of
there being four present, and the lady
asked him if lie could realize in such a
way Hie presence of tho Savior, and the
couversatisn that followedJeliaered Hie
invalid’s spirits.
A few days after this occurrence, the
wife of President Beardshenr, while
calling on Mrs, Loos, said she was going
to see a lady who had been cured bv I
faith. In response to an urgent request, I
tiie lady called upon Mrs. Loos. Mrs. |
Loos describes her ns a sweet, modest j
lady, who informed her that she had
been internally injured in childhood and
that since her marriage her husband
had taken her to the most talented phy-sicians
of Europe in a vain attempt to
regain health. A bihle reader, Mrs.
Smith, of Liverpool, while giving read-ings
in Chicago, called to see the in /niid
and after reading the divine promises in
regard to healing the sick, so encouraged
her that she made n't borough consecra-tion
of herself to God, and arose from
her knees a cured woman. Tiie story
told by Mrs. Simmons, the lady who had
reaped so rich a reward by faith, fell
witli wonderful force upon tiie mind of
Mrs. I.oos. When taking her departure
Mrs. Simmons said to Mrs. Loos: "I be-lieve
tiie Lord will help you. We will
pray for yon on Thursday at 8 p. in., at
the prayer meeting for tiie sick at my
house, and you and .Air. Loos pray and
believe.” This happened on Tuesday,
October 5th. Airs. Loos read and re-read
the account of Christ healing the
sick and asked God to come very near.
The Spirit came and blessed the soul of
the sick lady, the invalid’s room seem-ing
full of the Holy Ghost.
The invalid prayed that tiie Lord
having blessed her soul should bless her
body and immediately she received the
answer “I’ll heal yon hut be patient”
and, in tiie lady’s own wordq "lit touched
me.” Mrs. Loos writes that she felt a
strange thrill through tier body /hnd a
peculiar sensation in her lungs so that
involuntarily she struck herself and said
“Oh Lord, you have healed me!” Since
that time Mrs. Loos has been entirely
free from pain, Tho husband who was
not at home returned and immediately
with the President and Iiis wife inaugu-rated
a praise meeting. Tiie next moi-ning
the lady arose from bed feeling
bright and well and drove out. At the
time appointed for the prayer meeting
with Mrs. Simmons, a happy hand as-sembled
and returned thanks to the
Almighty far his wonderful mercy.
Since that time the lady lias been rap-idly
regaining health and strength. A
letter from another relative in Ohio who
recently visited Mrs. Loos, speaks of the
wonderful change in her health and of
the marvelous cure wrought by faith.

His lecture is a rare combina- j

The signal service Hags are keeping
holy one day in seven, if we are to judge
from their strictly secluding themselves
from gaze yesterday. The signals are
for everyday use, as I understand it, and
I lie governmental contract ia to furnish
the indications daily. People desire to
know whether the weather will be fair
or foul as well on Hie Sabbath as any
oilier day, and as there is no manual
labor connected with tiie display of the
flags, lei them he hoisted every day.

Tiie (lest appearance of the weather
signals was on Tuesday of last week.
Policeman Cooper, who is acting as flag
master, at first hoisted lint one flag, de-noting
the state of the temperature.
When asked why lie did not run lip the
appropriate signal for clear, cloudy or
rain, ho said, witli a grin, that lie was
only hoisting one flag at a time so they
would last longer. Tiie people hove be-come

With the (leatli of Hie South Penn, it
may he proper to make some remarks
over the corpse. The work done by the
engineers was as thorough a job of sur
veying as has been accomplished for a
long time. Ten foot contour maps of
tiie entire route have been made, cm
bracing a territory of over one thousand
square miles. To do this five thousand
miles of preliminary and location lines
were run. Four millions ol dollars'
worth of contract work was staked off,
superintended and measured up. (if the
tunnels (here were 37,387 feet of exca-vation,
or which 23,041 feet had been
finished. Tiie Kittatinny, one of Hie
longest, was almost completed, while
all lint Laurel Hill were more Hum half
done. Tiie total cost for grading, inr-sonry
and bridging was $10,000,792.81,
and of this amount 56 per cent, lins been
completed. The total length of thuroad
is 208.4 miles. Thirty-eight per cent of
tiie whole line was tinder contract and
about 22 per cent, was so far completed
ns only to require dressing to make it
readyjfor tiie track. With tiie large
amount of tunnelling with the accom-panying
use of explosives, twenty-seven
lives were lost. This is considered alow
percentage by those acquainted with Hie
ratio of fatality in this kind of work.
My acknowledgment is due to tiie Tran-sit
for the figures I have quoted. Every
contractor who assigned to tiie Construc-tion
Company was asked to file an esti-mate
upon a completion of iiis work.

There was an explosion in Stauffer's
photograph gallery yesterday, and Bob
Goodman took a hasty departure in one
way, while Captain Jordan went the
other. The Captain had been “gettin’

much good looks into the focus-glass
that the crystal was shivered with aloud
report. Ever since tiie days of the war,
tiie Captain lias been living in Mt.
Pleasant, and in that time never had a
counterfeit presentment of himself. He
wr ited until lie could get the roughest
day on record, and then yesterday’s oc-currence
tiappened. Bob says he is
going to take a whitewash brush and
paint the Captain’s picture on that
tombstone of Iiis, so that, lie will not he

THE JURY BRINGS IN A VERDICT OF
NOT GUILTY.
Anil the (*iiIIHIIt Colonel Walk* Forlli
r.utln ly Freed Front tlie Crime Unit
('OHt OIH’ Haymaker III* Life.
On Tuesday last, in l’ittshurg, the trial
of Archibald Blakely for participation
in the Mnrraysville riot was com-menced,
Judge Thomas Ewing on
tho bench. It took some time to
secure a jury, after which Welly Mc-
(’ullough, Esq , of Ureensburg, opened
the ense for tiie prosecution. The history
of the Murraysyille riot witli its sad
ending in the deatli of Obadiah Hay-maker,
is well known to rmr readers.
The evidence was about Hie same as on
the preceding trial, with tiie exception
of one notable instance. Two of tin*
men indicted for the murder of liny-maker
turned Slate’s evidence. .Miller
and Johnson were the two men. .Miller's
testimony was tliatjlie, at one time, lmd
been Surveyor of Westmoreland county.
On Wednesday or Thursday preceding
Monday, November 26th 1883, on which
day the killing of Haymaker occurred,
he, while sitting in Col. Blakely’s outer
office, overheard part of a conversation
between the latter gentleman, Mr. Wes-ton
and Mr. William Johnson. As near
as he could remember, Weston advised
procuring guns with which to hold flic
disputed property, and Johnson said he
would not go to Murraysville with agun.
Col. Blakely said, "Well, that's law.”
Johnson replied, ‘‘Well, Col. Blakely,
the best lawyers sometimes disagree."
Col. Blakely said, “I wouldn’t give a
d—n fora lawyer who wouldn't say a
man lmd a right to defend Iiis own prop-erty.”
The witness said further: “I was at
the scene of the riot, hut did not see the
killing; when I got off at Irwin station
I saw Col. Blakely standing beside a
box of guns ; he told me to get a gun
and go up to the well; I said, ‘Oh, no,
Col. Blakely, I didn’t come hereto fight."
Johnson in tiie main corroborated Mil-ler’s
testimony.
In the defense tiie defendant was not
only allowed to testify in his own be-half
but several of the men under in-dictment
and yet untried testified. The
Commonwealth strenuously objected to
allowing the testimony to ho given,
basing their reason on the fact that tiie
offence was committed before the pas-sage
of the law allowing defendants to
testify in their own behalf. A consul-tation
of the judges was held and the
testimony was admitted. According to
Blakely’s testimony, corroborated by |
that of Dr. Crawford, the Colonel and
Crawford were out on the road when
the affray occurred and had no active
participation in it. The testimony
closed on Friday afternoon after several
well known gentlemen had testified to
tiie high character of the accused man.
VVelty AlcCulloiigh opened for the pros-ecution,
followed by Thomas M.AIarshall
and Major Brown in brilliant pleas for
Blakely, and \V\ I). Moore closed the
case for tiie Commonwealtk.
Judge Ewing’s charge to thejury was
strongly in favor of a conviction of
manslaughter. He took occasion to pay
Iiis respects to tiie manner in which the
Sheriff of Westmoreland bad done his
duty, alluding to Iiis actions as having
been Pickwickian. He said Bowser
should lie well satisfied at having es-caped
tiie gallows as his deed was a
cruel , deliberate and brutal murder.
The prisoner’s previous high character
was greatly in iiis favor and tiie usual
exhortation to the Jury to do their duty
without fear or favor closed the charge.
The Jury then retired to their room
and spent Friday night there, endeav-oring
to reaeli a conclusion.
On Saturday morning a verdict of not
guilty was brought in by the jury and
Col. Blakely, after shaking the hands of
his friends, left tho court room a free
man.

THE WASTING GAS.
{tinny Natural Ga. Territory Contrast.
Call for ImmedDite Action.
“Why is it that natural gas operators
continue to drill wells when they have
no facilities for piping their product, and
have to let it go to wasto?” was asked of
a natural gas operator Saturday.
“Why, in 9 cases out of 10 the land
upon which the operator is drilling is
leased with the provision that wellssliall
be put down within a certain time, and
in order to fulfill tiie contract tiie drill
must he started. Then a well in per-spective,
whether of gas oroil.is a poor
tiling to speculate on, but as soon as tiie
well comes in and shows a good flow of
gas there is money in it, even if the gas
goes to waste.
“Tiie Philadelphia Company haven’t
seen a time in six months when they
hadn’t a drill going, and they average a
new well every few days. They, how-ever,
do not waste the product of their
wells, only so long as it takes them to
lay tiie connecting pipes. The Phila-delphia
Company are now drilling at
Montour and Murraysville and next
week will start on six new wells at Mtir-raysville.
They are the only parties
who have made extensive preparations
as yet to use their gas except as a matter
of speculation. Several of the other
companies, however, will stop the waste
from their wells in a short time,”

IS EUROPE PN THE EVE OF A GREAT
WAR?
The long threatened but repeatedly de-ferred
Invasion of llulgarin by Servia
has at last begun. Within a few days
we may hear of the occupation of .Sophia
by King Milan. The motives of the as-sailant
are well known, and the issues
of tlfo contest, provided the combatants
were left lo settle their dispute, might
he easily predicted, lint Ihc question in
which Americans, as the great, producers
of food staples, are deeply interested is.
Can the war be localized, or wid it ine-vitably
spread and involve nil the great
powers which desire to profit by the
tinal partition of the Sultan's European
possessions which now seems to lie at
hand?
The position taken by Servia on the
outbreak of the Itoiunclian revolt was
this: If the powers would insist upon
the maintenance_of the Heflin treat} ,the
Serbs would submit, little reason as they
had to thank the framers of that agree-ment.
If, on the other hand, the powers
were disposed to acquiesce in the rup-ture
of the treaty to the great advantage
of Bulgaria, the Serbs abso would de-mand
stteli a readjustment of boundaries
as would secure to them some compensa-tion.
To prove how much they were In
earnest, the subjects of King Milan com-pelled
him to mobilize their army, and,
as this imposed a grave burden upon
their slender resources, the powers were
warned that some decision for or against
the enforcement of the treaty must
sseedily he formed. For many weeks
they hare waited vainly the announce-ment
of a definite purpose on part of I lie
Conference, and still the prospect of
agreement seems as far oil'as ever, some
of the great powers having distinctly re-fused
to ratify a forcible restoration of
the statu* qua.
The Berlin treaty is, therefore,de faetn
abrogated, and the Serbs notuunaturally
decline to recognize its arbitrary ilelim
ifntion of boundaries—which their neigh- j
hors, the Bulgarians are permitted lo ig- j
nore—as binding on themselves. If I
treaty rights are henceforth to give away
to moral rights, then Servia will assert
her hereditary claim to the strip of terri
tory lying on her eastern frontier,which-is
mainly peopled by Serbs and includes
the important cities of Sophia and Wi.l-din.
Site lias always held herself un-justly
deprived at Berlin of that district,
and she now deems herself at liberty to
retirees the wrong, seeing that an unfair
treaty has been practically annulled on
the express ground ot ^deference to the
principles of nationalities. What is
sauce for the Hulg.tr is sauce also for the
Serb.
That Is the ease for Servia, and, ow-ing
to the superior discipline and equip-ment
of her army, there is but little
doubt that it will he promptly made
good in the forum of war, provided nei-ther
Kussla nor Turkey intervenes to
protect Bulgaria. But Turkey, as the
nominal suzerain of l’rince Alexander,
Is technically bound to defend her vc*-
sal’s territory against foreign assault,
and she would desire Io do so, had not
that vassal placed hhnselfin the position
of a rebel by sustaining the lloumeltan
revolt. Events it is, the Porte, whose
one obieet is to uphold the Berlin treaty,
may think it expedient to save Bulgaria
from a loss of territory on the west, for
which an equivalent could only he
sought upon the.south, to wit, in Itou-melia.
But the Sultan's action at litis
juncture will unquestionably be moul-ded
by the ndlucnee of Austria and tier-many,
wlto are believed to have sugges-ted
the movement of King Milan, and
who certainly will never permit him to
be crushed by the interposition of Tur-key
or of Russia ill his present quarrel
with his Bulgarian neighbor.
While the Porte can lu; restrained
without much dilliculty front such inter-ference
as would expand the area of war,
the course of Russia Is much less easily
foretold. But for the fact, indeed, that
Prince Alexander is personally Intensely
obnoxious to the Czar—as is proved by
ithe striking out of his name from the
rolls of the Russian army, by the sus-pension
of the subsidy hitherto sent him
from St. Petersburg, and by Ihc recall
of all the Russian officers detailed to tho
Bulgarian service—no one doubts that
llie Russian force some time ago biassed
in Bessarabia would already have been
launched against the Servian invaders.
In Ids present, stale of mind the. Czar
may prefer to hold ins hand until King
Milan has occupied Sophia, in tho hope
that the Bulgarians will then of their
own accord depose Prince Mcxander,
instigated, as they Will he, by the prom-ise
Cud Russian succor shall at. oiler
follow that event. hr the pressure nl
l’anslavio sympathies may induce the
Czar to enter Bulgaria immediately in
the guise of a protector, being well as-sured
that his (ieueruls, once planted in
the country, would know hew to rid
themselves of a distasteful ruler.
Everything, in short depends on the
action ot Russia, and we should learn
very soon what that power’s Intentions
arc. Of tills, at all events, we may had
pretty confident, that the armed Inter-vention
of tho Czar will he met with a
counter demonstration by the Itapsburg
Kaiser. And then the war of giants
will begin.—-V. Y Sun.
M. BRISSON’S PROGRAMME.
There is nothing revolutionary in the
stutoment of ministerial Intentions which
M. Brissnn addressed Monday to the
French Chamber. It. is the programme
of the new session, nevertheless, and if
it he accepted in good faith by all parlies
as the basis of discussion the session will
not fall in importance for the French
and in interest for tho world at large.
At Ihc same time it, is to ho remembered
that the French Chamber of Deputies is
more like our House of Representative*
than ills like any oilier body of the kind,
and that the never so formal programme
of the huginning of a session may he as
speedily departed front as an analogous
one at Washington so often Is. We are
accu-turned lo think ol tlie French ■i.vs-tem
as a government by parties, quali-fied
by groups, to he sure, hut really as
have more analogy with the English
system than with our own, in which in-dividual
constituencies have so great
weight. The contrary is true. Con-stituencies
count less than they do with
us, though much more than they do in
Great Britain—always excepting In
land. But individual legislators count
even more and party lies rest even
lighter than in our own ease.
Consequently, whereas in England at
ihe present time there arc almost no is-sues
before the people, and party ap-peals
arc based almost solely on loyalty
lo traditional principles of political phi!
oBophy and to well defined political or-ganizations,
in the recent French cam-paign
discussion was hail and the elec-tion
turned on practical and, as we call
them, "live” Issues. Still further, not
only was the popular election campaign
socomlucted, hut now that the Chamber is
filially’ chosen and lu sestion, it is still
composed of in the mass independent
individuals who will he guided as to
each question which comes up by their
individual opinions and sympathies
father than by either abject party alle-giance
on the one hand, or l»y the pro-nounced
preterenees of the constituen-cies
on the other. In other words, in
tho French Chamber there Is no h II-wether
and blindly following flock, nor
is it a literally representative body with
no Independent dispositions of its own.
This may be a good orevil thing. I ’roll
ably tint French will one day come to,
even if they cannot he said at present to
need, a stricter parly government, and
perhaps, in time, also to a more absolute
responsibility of representatives to the
people behind them. For the moment
the only conclusion that we wish to
draw from their system in these respects
is that Premier Brisson’s programme
may bo subjected lo many changes be-fore
the session is over.
Nevertheless, it is very shrewdly
drawn up, and as it deals very frankly
with precisely the questions upon which
the country pronounced on October I
and at the supplementary elections, st is
diet was handed ill--who wondered how
the jury could tie so heartless as to con-vict
the young murderer of a degree of
crime that dooms Idm to the gallows
U IIIMI lie had tt inolher to w hom It would
he a crushing blow. Such people often
littni up on juries themselves. And yet
w hen the motive of consideration for a
criminal’s inolher is analyzed it Is found
to contain mi valid reason why tho crime
should go unpunished.
Society Is must Interested in the pun-ishment
of crime and the enforcement
o'l'the law ami is not responsible fob Ihe
variance between its interests and those
of the liearllu'oken n latives of criminals,
The criminals themselves are responsible
and they cannot hope to escape the con-sequences
of their acts by appealing to
society to remember anil pity those whom
they forgot and for whom they had no
mercy. There are few who have strong-er
claims on the sympathy of the indi-vidual
than the innocent relatives of a
condemned murderer, hut, the public
well-belngdcniands that tills sympathy
should tie expressed chiefly ill a private
and nnotllelal manner. There is en-tirely
loo intich of maudlin afterthought
on the part of criminals for their rela-tives.—

distinction the lines upon which the dis-cussions

attention will undoubtedly he that which
receives the most important considera-tion
in the Premier's statement—namely,
tlie Colonial question. This figured
more prominently than any others dur-ing
the campaign. Personal feeling had
a great deal to do with this. M. Jules
Ferry had made as many personal ene-mies
as Mr. Gladstone, and Ids colonial
policy was attacked with even more vir-ulence
because it was his than because it
lias not proved more successful. It lias,
however, cost a mint of money of which
France is in great need at home, and the
criticism of it was by no means altogeth-er
personal. Tho Chamber will have to

S}mi'(Oiv Hawk Kf Hccilllaml-
From the St. .Inines (l«*ette,.
Wo are lying on tlie oulsltlrlsof a dark
pliie wood, Intelaper-ed with Seoteh lira
and hollies. A large bird has just flown
into that chimp of trees In the hillside
opposite. There It sits on a dead hough,
with its mottled lireast toward ns and Its
restless head quickly turning frontside
to side. As it stands against the dark
green foliage, We are enabled to see the
bright orange of its tars/, anti know it to
he a sparrow hawk. As it tiles from the
idninp a pair of missel-thrushes and a
flock of smaller birds follow in Its wake,
but dare not mob it.“Tt swoops as one
approaches too near, glides upward, and
pursues Its way, scarcely deigning to no-tice
the screeching crowd. The hawk
glides silently into the wood, threading
its sinuous way through the trees and
takes np its position in the centre. I he
cooing of the wood-pigeons seems to c\-
elte the bird of prey, which makes a cir-cuit
of the wood, shimming along tin-ground
at -the height of a few yards
Then, as something in the grass attracts
It, it heats tile air wit It its rounded wings
and, depressing its tail, hangs as if sus-pended.
In a second II falls, just as a
lark shoots from the tuft and seeks slid
ter in the thick thorn hedge. The hawk
follows,and heats the bush with its wings
tirst on one side and then the other.
The trembling lark cannot l:e frightened
out of its stronghold: and the hawk,
Adding itself baffled, skims along as be-fore.
Round and round the wood it
flaps, now rising,now sweeping hnv over
the trees, and anon hanging motionless.
A number of eltaftinches are picking
among the corn, unconscious of the
presence of an enemy. Suddenly the
Imwk darts around the corner of the
wood, rushes among the terrified dock,
dutches one doomed little bird in its
talons, and is oil straight and swift
across the country, staining with a deep-er
scarlet the ruffled plumage of its
captive.

Secretary Lamar doubtless llnds in-spiration
in the study ot a great local
character who was the lighter of Mr.
Lamar’s neighborhood when the latter
was a mere hoy. '1 lie lighter was a
planter by the name of James 11. Zack
cry. His dialect and exploits were mo«t
happily described by Mr. Lamar at a re-cent
dinner. Znekery, in his best days,
whipped everything before him. (me
day young Lamar a bed tlie lighter to
give him the secret of his success. He
said:
“Znekery, it can’t lm that you are log-ger
and stronger than everybody.
Zaekery replied: “Well, Lucius, I
Jest explains it tills ycr way : When I
goes Into a tight 1 takes a good swarthat
I’m goin’ to stay right thnr! Mr. Lu-cius,”
added lie, “fightin’is, I reckon,
the most tiresoniest business there is.
When the oilier feller begins to get his
tire on, then you stayin’ right tlinr w ill
beat him, shore.”
It was Zaekery who, In condoling with
a neighbor who had lost a good and
faithful wife, said: “I am sorry for you;
I know of nothin’ that ungears a man
so as to loss ids wife.” Toward the
close of his life Zaekery experienced
religion. As lie was lying upon his
deathbed a neighbor came in and said:
“Well, Zaekery. you will have to go
soon, l am told.”
“As Is agreeable to nature,” was his
polite and coii“e|tvativo reply.
When asked if lie thought his sins
were all forgiven, lie said, with even
greater conservatism, “I reckon the
heft of them arc.”

SCROFULA
Usually develops In enrly life,
and is a peculiar morbid con-dition
of the system, usually
affecting the glands, often re-sulting'
in swelling's, enlarged
Joints, abscesses, thickening
of the lips, enlarged neck, sore
oyes. A scrofulous condition
i often hereditary, but, bad
diet, too free use of fat meats,
bad air, want, of sunshine and
nourishing food will induce
it. Some people are troubled
with scrofulous swelling of tho j
glands, and with ulcers and j
kernels, which may cause very
little pain; others may have in-ward
scrofula, scrofula of the
lungs, scrofula of the spleen,
scrofula of the kidneys, and
scrofula of the bones. BUR-DOCK
BLOOD BITTERS will
drive away any case ofscrofula
