lien te End It. ,
The new famous case of Nolde ct nl.
T9. Madlcm et aI. is n dispute between
rival beards or claimant trustees for tlie
control of tlie remnant of property In the
powesalen or tlie decrepit society of
Seven Day Baptists tit Eplirata. It has
bajn dragging Itself through our courts
for several years, get te tlie deer of the
supreme court lu 18S2 and was kicked
out in 18S3. One set of tlie contestants
claim a constituency of 10 members of
tlie soclety, tlie ether 17. though tlie
regularity of some et these latter is lm
paached en tlie ground that tlie preacher
who baptized thein Inte the sect was net
orthodox and authorized. It can easily be
seen upon what narrow lines these rights
dlvlde aud hew stubborn men, mere
concerned about the worldly than the
spiritual Interests of a religious assecla.
Hen, ene party with its property in baud
and the ether h?htln;r for control of it,
could wage Interminable litigation evor
the issues thus involved. But it is net
the policy of the law that litigation
should be eternal. However nasty this
church quarrel and contemptible the
s'.ake in It, tlie parties te it are entitled
somehow te llual judgment, and it is net
entirely the fault of the civil law that
they de net obtain It. The J tidge Pat
terson trustees being in possession of the
property, he granted and made perma.
ncntan injunction against the Judge
Livingston trustees, from which the
president judge very naturally dissented,
whereupon the supreme court en an np
peal decided that In view of the divided
court below the decree was void, aDd
there was nothing before it te discuss
or decide. When it came en fgr further
argument in the lower court, Judges
Livingston and Patterson divided as
before and there tbe case remains, tied
up as befere, and likely te remain se
until death, a new judicial election or a
returning respect for the law aud re
gard for the rights of Bulters en the part
of the court, Intervene te unlock the dead
lock.
In the capacity of a mutual friend the
Intelligent. Kit only renews the sug
gestions of the supreme court itself te
our equally esteemed, but net always
fraternal judges, when we recommend
them te take the easy and honorable
way out of their dilllculty te which the
supreme court points them when it says.
"If the learned judges below canuet
agree upon a proper decree they have
the power te call upon a judge from
another district te decide the case for
them." Te be sure, this would be a
serious rellectluu en their own sense of
judicial preprlety.aa it would be graceful
and entirely proper for either te yield
his pride of opinion te 'allow a decree te
be entered se as te luImHef the supreme
court reaching themeiitH of the case;
but as neither shows any disposition te
de this tbe plan te Invite a judicial
referee from betnu ether district 13 the
enlj practicable one, aud there should
1 no delay in reporting te it.
There are some very excellent neigh
boring judges te whom this service
might be committed. Judge Livingston
would, et course, object te Judge Clay Clay
eon, of Delaware teuutyfand Judge Pat
tersen would net propeso a member of
the Dauphin county court ; neither
might incline te tlie Berks county
judgCB, us being tee nearly of the vicin
age of the case , but Judge Wlckes or
Judge Gibsen, of Yerk, Judge Futhej
of Chester, or that bright aud braiuy new
judge, Arneld, of Philadelphia, would
be just ttie man te clear the judicial
track here of the obstructions piled
upon it by the collision of an irresistible
force with an immovable body.
Tjik statu beard of accounts has cei
tulnly acted with wisdom in declining te
take jurisdiction and in referring te the
courts the claim of the Western Union
telegraph company te a settlement for
$50,000 of the $117 000 tax account
charged agnlnst the corporation by the
commonwealth, and which it was re
ported a abort time age this beard had
agreed te compromise at thu lesser
amount offered by tlie company. The
scandal cieated in Pennsylvania some
years age by Its bjard of accounts ms
terleusly nud suspiciously ab itlngu large
part of a claim for tax against a delin
quent transput latum company should be
for all Union warning of the stnte ofll efll
clals te proceed with caution in such
matters and leave all doubts in their
minds te be settled by courts of law.
Especially should they be wary In deal
ing with he wily a corporation as the
Western Union, which cornea forward
new claiming that the amount it offers
is the outblde sum in controversy, aud
"the company h willing te pay, became
they desire te avoid litigation aud live
in peace and harmony in the state."
This c mipany lias grossly offended the
law, and imposed upon the people et tills
commonwealth by absorbing competing
lines in violation of the constitution,
and itdottrvesuo consideration except
tlie strict constrir.'tlen of the law's letter.
Nothing is mere disastrous ie a can
didate for olllce than that his party
friends go fishing or hunting en election
day. In vlew of the ticket nominated en
Wednesday, a cousidcrable number of
Philadelphia Republicans show a maul
fest disposition te de this thing. The
Philadelphia Evening Jiidldm, about tlie
Btralghtest organ of its party in the city,
prints the names of the nominees and
adds te their editorial announcement
that "the duck sheeting is said te be
very flne nlenr the Jersey shore and the
fishing Is net bad." The JhtVetin sails

The olive trees planted by Spitnsh

from their stock have spruug the large

favored climate. With the development
of this iuterest In our country the superior
ity of olive oil te butter as an element of
culsine Is likely te becoine mero generally

Ex-Mayek S'1eki.i:v, of Philadel

iigiilmt the Republic in city ticket nomi
nated ou Wednesday. He siys it will
be beaten and ought te be beaten ; that
Smith Is net lit te be mayor and gained
his nomination by disreputable methods ;
that his election will net be aided by the
fcuppert or the money of Stokley's
friends; that the men who nominated
the ticket this jear betrajed Stokley in
1831, nud his friends ewo them nothing
but the sharp edge of the knlfe. This
might be only the idle talk: of a disap
pointed man, but Stokley, however tin tin
ucrupuleuB, Is an Individual of unques
tionable will power and personal ferce ;
he repreeenta an obstinate Iniluence In
Philadelphia relitics that will make
itself felt lu February. It has likewise

lilt: law creating the sinking fund for
the oxtiuguisbment of the federal debt
provides that 1 per cent, of the entire debt,
and the interest accruing en the bends iu

At llrst it was uet fully met, but aubaa aubaa

was euly $5,550,270, for last year $40,321,.

$70,180,703, for 1901 ; it will bj
$78,080,100 , for 1005, when tbe last or the
Uebt will be paid off under tha existing
law, it will he $20,082,075. One toheol of
financiers are of opinion that as th?
Binklng fuud has been exceeded by $455,
115,333, we should suspend further pay
ments until the requirements of the fund
catch up with that amount. Mr. Felgcr,
ou tbe ether hand, holds te the present
system, by which the $250,000,000 or
par cents, will be reduced within three or
thrce and a half years. Thore will remain

Whatever doubt may have existed as te
tbe guilt of Geerge JelUe), new under
indictment for minder in the flrM degree,
jointly with his wife, at Kiverheail, hmg
Island, Ikm bcen removed Jellrcj has been
qulte ill several days, but the symptoms
weiouet tlaugcreui. Thursday afternoon
he sent for the district attorney and made
a clean breast of his crime.
He h.ijb he killed his vuft child by
heldlug its IkkIv betweeu his kuec ami
tnistcit tuucuiUrB bead oue way unit no
thought he had broken bis need, and then
twisted the bead the ether way te make
sure he had killed it One phvsieian failed
te discover the broken neck, but a second
pbjBlcian determined the oune of dentb
at a glance. Jeffrey e.uitemplited killing
the chtlil for a long' tune, and thought he
could de se by continual cruellies and net
be held guilty of a crime ; failunr, he at
last brekn its neck. He hated the child
because be w.m net in fathei. and Uh p
tsteuoe luterfervd nunc or le-s with his
wife earnlug money for buu He bad no
ether motive for theoiime Jelhey and
his wlfe have been in nil since August.
Tlie child, wh m) tuur lr is new eon
fesed, bad been uiu,,cted te the most
brutal treatment. Delly IVI.ard as tin
mother. Sbe w.n fniuteeii years old
when the child was born, .lultiey mairletl
her with a full knowledge of all tlie r.ieta
Neither had any auVctieu ler theehild nud
Jeffrey repeatedly obiettcdte huppurting
It uelly went towein u ouviaie inui
objection. She would no away in tbe
morning, leaviug it aluue en the lloer, and
net return until evemug A mp of water,
and either bread or ci ackers were lei l
beside It, and the child c mid eat or
tarve. It wis uudi-i three years aud net
likely te feed Itself. Vtiere were no ue.u
neighbors.
Persons parsing frequently braid the
child cry, but they wcie barred by locked
doers and closed windows from minister
lug te Its wauts, if se luelitied. When
Jeffrey nnd his wife quureled it w.m u
common thing for bun te threw the child
at her, and very often it received pvlnful
injuiies from this cause On eue occasion
its arm was broken, aud the benes were
allowed te knit Irregularly, resulting in a
deformed baud. When Jeffrey came
ueuie aud found the e'aild impeding the
entrance te the heue, be wnild kick it
out of tbe way. One of these kicks landed
the child lu the cistern, and it would
probably have been allowed te ilrewu but
ler the preaeuce of Delly's father.
Jeffreys threatened te kill bis father in
law for interfering. Old Pollard reuewed
the affray, armed with a shotgun, bu;
Jeffrey judiciously kept out of range.
There was a eat iu tin h mse. Tun
Jeffrey would held by the hairs of its
head with oue Laud, and with tbe ether
band held the child by the bUr et its
bead te see which could endure the tor
ture the greater while. At ether times he
would whirl the child through spice by
holding fast of a leg or au arm, never
being particular ai te what objects us
body cime iu contact with, iur caring
about the consequences. In spite of man
ifeld cruelties the little one clung tenac
iously te life.

uetild be accomplished by ifctabhshliig a

Dr. Knight thought the plan ugoed eue,
but feared it might meet with opposition,
bccatia it differed st much fiem the prae

would be a geed thing ler the mlnUten,
many of whom were subjoeted te much
annoyance by iioiseus who, Koause of
occasional liberal donations, pretended te
tub) the work of parishes.
Hey. Hall opposed the plan because it
would Interfere with vested rights of elll
