road corporation which it has created in
the matter of freight and passenger
charges is supreme and that the clause in
the charter giving the Chicago, Burling-
ton and Quincy company the right to fix
its tolls could not deprive the State of its
controlling power. The difference be-
twedn the provision in that charter and
the provision in the charter of the eleva-
ted roads in this city is that no maxi-
mum limit to the fares which the Illi-
nois company might charge was prescrib-
ed, while a maximum limit was fixed in
the case of the elevated roads. But this
is a difference less favorable to the latter
company than to the former. The opin-
jon of the Bapreme Court in the case
which it has just decided leaves little
room for doubt as to what would be its
views on the power of the Legislature of
New York to regulate fares on the eleva-
ted roads,”

Instances of bearing another's crime
fre rare; a case is reported from Ken-
tacky, in which it is said Gov. Black-
burn, on 10 instant, pardoned James 8.
Sizmare, who was gent to the penitentiary
from Clay county in 1880 for six years,
charged with murder, It said that
Siziare made no defense. His brother,
a man with a large family, being the
al criminal, Sizmare voluntarily took the
odium and penalty on himself for the
sake of his brother and his family. The
brother, when dying recently, declared
such of the
truth of the confession that the governor
is
re-
his guilt, and gave proofs
at once issued a pardon when the facts
were made known to him.

for the Sabbath to an extent that serious-
ly interferes with the observance of the
day in the manner customary along the
ine of the road. He bas forbidden the
running of Sanday excursion trains and
of all other trains not absolutely necessa-
ry. He says: “Ibis order applies to
camp meeting trains. If Christians cans
not find other pluces to worship, this
company will not violate divine and civ-
il law and deay its employes the essea-
tial rest of the Sabbath to carry them to
