A IlantinBdon siee!al says: A decision has just tieeu ron.lereil here by Attrney J. F. Schork, auditor appointel to distribute the funds in the hands of the sheriff arising from th sa of personal property of Henry Kavis of nrar Peters burg, in w hieh a delicate legal question is involvetL Calvin Bell and McAllister Myton, bth of Petersl.-.ire, were judgment creditors of Henry avis to the exteat of fl,rtl! and f !,4S respectively. llarly last spring 1 "avis' real estate b.e-an:e heavily encuuiUrei, and in the hope that an execution against his personal property might result in the satisfaction of one claim, at least, I'.e'd and Myton boarded the same train at Petersburg, April 4lh, and came to Huntingdon. Kach was aware of the other's preseii.v on the train, and upon lh ir arrival lu-re it was a neck-and-neck rai-e l tve-!i the two to see which one would retu li th" court house first. Myton. who was 4o yc-ars old last harvest, is much the younger man, and h d in the race from the start, but Hell was a c-od scumd. The latter evidently realized that he would finish in the same xisition. and lie legan the cry. "stop thief!" This was a signal for throngs of people on the street to pursue Myton. The crowd grew to large prr,;o::ions by the time Myton was w ithin .Vi yards of the i-ourt house, and ''stop thief!" "catch the thief !"' "arrest him!" crone from hundred of Voiis-s. Myton was very near to the entrance of the building wlieu lie vas stoppinl at the point of a revolver by a polii-e otiieer. and by the time he made satisfactory eplanatims and got through the crowd that sur rounded him lic'l was in tl;oisurt house and had iiis esf-eution is-ueJ. The amount r :di:-.cd from the sale of the personal property of Henry I'av-s is a trifle less than the amount of Hell's judgment, Whether Hell, whos- etcs'utioii was issued first, or Myt n v. hose execution it-rtainly would have taken first place had he n-t lieen intcrcepte I in the it'e-e by the policeman Ixaii-e he :ls bran-led a thief, is eu t it led to the meiey, is lh ouestio-i. Auditor S h .-k d-.-ti-h-l tint Myton was entitled to the funds in the sheri.rs hands for the re ison that his f cxe".ition would have taken lir-t place had it n--'. lieen for I'eil and others by false ap pellations, having him intercepted in the ra-c.

One excise for this departure fr.-m military canons is to be f oiiii 1 in the fact that the Japam-se wd-liers have Uvn gradually shoekeil and infuriated beyond endurance by the savage brutality of the Chinese. Japan set out to cmdui-t tin war in stri1 conformity with th? highest dictates of morality. She enjoined her soldiers to abstain from all violence toward tho peaceful inhabitants of invad-sl districts; ?he made arrangements to treat them ex actly as she treated her own wounded ; she paid f r e verything she took, in the territory of her f.e. In short, she neg lected nothing that could demonstrate her rigid adherence to best codes of civ ilized usages. All this was thrown away on the Chi nese. They never wavered in theoliedi enee t'i the bloodiest tm ditionsof medieval barbarism. They hrribly mutilated the cor; ises of the dead, ruthlessly murdered the wounded, roblied, ontmged and burn ed wherever they went, and committed other alroeitied of a most heinous char acter.
