I tell you, this case is five times stronger than any I ever had.” “Have you any stronger evidence than has been published Yes, great desl that I cannot give you—s great desl that has happened within the last twelve months.” Does this make sn unbroken chain in the link of circumstantial evidence in the cage?’ “In my opinion it does beyond a doubt, and T have had right smart ex perience in these sort of things.” Does the evidence in your posses sion show any reason why the prisoner should have taken the life of Fannie Madison Yes, it does. Circumstances will prove that if she had lived his moral character would have been ruined, his standing in his community destroyed, and his death would have followed.

They placed Galvin in the box, with McCauley behind the bat, while Kimber and Householder held like positions on the home nine. The contest was, tame throughout the first three innings, mo runs having been made except one each in the first. At this point, however, the visitors began to gain ground on the home team, which they easily maintained until the close of the game, Kimber was effective in Keeping the Buffalo boys from hitting his and in striking them out, but he made two wild pitches, several loose ones, and struck three men, giving each of them first base all of which greatly benefited the visitors, and helped to work out the home boys’ defeat. Green. wood and Latham each made two er rors, each of which proved to be very costly. Householder made some very pretty pick-ups behind the bat, buthe had three passed balls, all of which were at such critical times as to prove very disastrous.” Glenn did the batting of the day. The visitors played alto gether a very fair game. Mr, Pyle um pired the game very satisfactorily, The result of the game was 9 to 5 in favor of the Buffalos.

The occasion was a concert tendered Miss Alice Waltz, of Brooklyn, by Mr. I. N. Jones. The piano duo, Spanish Dances,” by Mr. Kinney and Mr. Mathews, opened the concert.

The ove lesson the British army, for its comfort, may derive from the recent battles is that a line of Bri tigh infantry two deep, defended by steady breech-loading fire, is unap proachable in front by any number of savages, however devoted. The sole condition of success for such a line is that its flanks are protected and all the tactical instruction imparted at our military schools and garrison classes must be pronounced worthless if 4,300 British troops, in their traditional two deep line, provided with cavalry and artillery, as at Tamai, and whose fire in line would defend a front of more than a mile in extent, are not able to protect their flanks and rear by mana uvring against 10,000 savages, A% Abu-Klea the odds of 10,000 men against 1,400 were, perhaps, too great to justify a line formation on open ground but we hold it as certain that a reries of independent small squares, which can be formed in a moment from column of march, and which could af ford each other flanking def nce, would have been preferable to one unwieldy square, able to move only at a wh pace, The losses recently tained by our troops supply a sufficient condemnation of the latest innovation on common sense and military scfence. At Tamai 107 were killedand 116 wounded out of 4,300 ;at Abu-Klea 85 were killed and 92 wound ed out of 1,400. The losses were due to fighting in square. At Tel-el-Kebir we lost only 76 killed and at Kirbe kan, where our troops attacked a strongly intrenched position, only 10 of all ranks out of 1,000 were killed after five hours’ fighting, although both at Tamai and Abu-Klea we narrowly escaped a serious disaster. The bat tle of Gubat was the most risky of all, where our troops for five hours presented the helpless mark of a dense square to the enemy's riflemen, who were almost entirely secure from our return fire and if they had been commanded by any one who knew his business, their spearmen, by only threatening to charge, instead of at tempting to do so in reality, would have kept our men under a fire which they would not have been able to return during the whole subsequent march to the Nile. Fortunately, however, they did charge in earnest. None of them reached within thirty yards of our muzzles, and the discouragement occa siongd by their heavy loss caused their whole foree to break up. state Control of Railroads. A Vicksburg (Miss.) special says: The Supreme Court of Mississippi at Jackson Monday decided the various railroad supervision cases in substance as follows The opinion in the case of the Yazoo City railroad, which is wholly operated in the State, decides that the supervision of that railroad is exclu sively in the State. The court says in regard to other lines that every rail road train from the time it enters the State until it leaves the same is eon trolled by the State law and police re gulations, and not by the General Gov ernment, provided only that this power is impartially exercised and without disturbing commerce. The right to affix their own tariff when within fixed limits is a vested fran chise right, and will be upheld to the maximum of the limit granted in the company’s charter subsequent legis lation cannot restrict it where no max jmum rate is provided in the charter, but only a provisien that the company shall have the power of affixing the same, and then the charges must be placed at a reasonable and fair rate, and if the Railroad Commission does not concur iu this view an appeal could be made to the courts. Substa tially, a railroad commission is a lel tri bunal, but its power to act is n. lified more or less by each specific arter, and the general appeal is to the courts against any arbitrary abuse of their DOWeTS. Kicked to Death by a Savage Mare. A Lancaster (Pa.) special says Near Osk Hill, in Little Britain township, on Saturday, Samuel Fite, a farmer, hearing a noise in his stable, went in and found that one of the horses had broken loose and was kicking and biting a mare. He tied the horse and turned toquiet the mare, when she kicked him, his leg, and as he fell kicked him in the gide. In response to his cries Samuel Fite, Jr., ran to his assist pee, when the guraged brute. winked young msn in head, frecturing his skull.

Police Court. A BUSINESS COUPLE. The Late Frank Chanfran snd His Wi formances to Muse myself with while she attended to business and household duties. Mrs. Chanfrau still feels keenly the loss of her husband, and says she now recognizes fully how helpless she is in business matters with out him, although he always strove during their happy and peace ful married life of twenty-seven years to teach her business methods, Itis a singular fact, worth mentioning solely because of its singularity, that this couple, who were absolutely devoted to each other, lived separate lives in the strictly business sense. Each earned separate incomes and Kept separate sc counts. If ome borrowed from the otherthe obligation was Pepdid sa sri as if they were in no way The accounts of Mr. Chanfrau’s estate show, I am told by the executor, that he spent less than #300 on his wife during their entire mar ried life. The estate was largely made up of their joint earnings, and was, therefore, justly left in its entirety to the widow, to whom the care of the two sons is left without reservation or direction. One of Chanfran's children is remarkably handsome lad named after his fathers Many years ago when he was only about four years of age his mother had his photograph taken in imitation of the famous Cherubs”* of Raphael. In one the child rests his chin on his arms, which are spread on a table; in the other his cheeks are held between the palms of his hands, the elbows resting on the same table. These two pictures have long formed a part of the stock in trade of photographers, who sell them as The American Cherubs.” I have heard them spoken of as Chanfrau’s twins,” but as a matter of fact both faces are of the same bright-loeking boy. Some one read aloud to a group at Chanfrau’s a story just now current in the papers representing the emotions displayed by Matilda Heron on an occasion when her infant child Bijou called aloud to her in a crowded theatre during a pa thetic scene in the play, Mrs. Chan frau was reminded of an incident of a more comical character in her own experience, She was playing in “The Rent Day,” with the late William R. Floyd, or as he insisted everybody should call him, Billy Floyd,’ in the cast. Tn one scene she was supposed to be asleep, and Floyd in his part was to arouse her after some difficulty, Mrs, Chanfrau’s little son Frank was in the front of the house in charge of her sister, Miss Mary Baker. Observing Floyd's vain efforts to arouse his mother the child eried out aload, greatly to the amusement of actors and audience Mamma Mamma wake up Billy wants to talk to you." —New York Tribune. Rarity of Cholce Chinese Porcelains, (Harper's Magazine.) The miserable opium wars of France and England against the Chinese, and tiie robbery of the Summer palace of the Emperor, resulted in the introduc tion into Europe of fine porcelains of a sort theretofore almost unknown, some of which have since found their way to this country, The Tae-ping rebellion, which, in destroying the city of King te-chin, inhabitated by nearly 200,000 potters and decorators, gave a blow tg the manufacture from which it can never recover, at the same time threw thousands of fine pieces long guarded by wealthy Chinese among their treasures into the hands of dealers. This source is believed to be now quite exhausted. Our American collectors are dependent on the sales that take place from time to time in Europe, whence piece after piece has been brought over here, until nqw, in the opinion of one of the largest dealers, but little more can be looked for from that direction. Small vases, only a few inches in diameter, are held at hundreds of dollars; pieces of any size, and shewing a partic ularly beautiful coloring, or rich irides cence, of excellent modelling, or fine painting, may be worth thousands. It is not without reason that they are so prized, for in workmanship, in material, in taste, and artistic invention, they are better than the best specimens of Cau casian art, A Persian water-bottle, on the one hand, and some specimens of fine old Sevres, in Mr. Dana's posses sion, on the other, are among the best things of the kind that our race can boast of. The Persian piece, of coarse paste-imitation porcelain, made without kaolin, and painted in the careless, blotty manner charac tristic of their work, can be put beside the Chinese specimens, though dis tinetly of lower type than they; but the Sévres, and the English, and the Saxon wares cannot bear comparison with it. The Japanese artists of to day, stimulated by the demand that exists for work ‘that shall be frankly decorative. and free and artistic as well, and of which they only seem to have preserved the secret, are turning out work in some respects as meritorious as the old Chinese, But though Japanese art is founded on the Chinese. the disposition of the people— gayer, lighter, more impressionable than that of their teachers—shows itself in all that they do. Their work lacks the solidity, the seriousness, the import ance, of the Chinese. It may be more amusing, but it is not so deeply inter esting. It may be brighter, but not so rich cleverer. but not as elegant. Absurd Rules of of the English Bar. Flay Ys mp" Since the world began was there ever anything so absurd and indefensible as the rules of the English bar? A bar rister, however hungry, must not take a less fee than a guinea; he must not advertise for work he must not treat with his clients without the interven tion of an attorney; he has mo legal claim for his fees, and he is mot liable for his negligence. Take again the grotesque rule as to precedence. There are, let it be supposed, upon a particular circuit, two barristers, A and B, Aisa prodigy of legs] learning, but no orator, knows next to no law, but talks like house on fire.
