A TEST FOR INEBRIETY,
The Victim to Walk a Chalk Lino or
Spell Words,
r.oston, Mass., March 24. Councll
manmnn Lune wants established at the
several stations of this city some ofllclal
test or standard of Inebriety. At lost
night's meeting of common council ho
Introduced an ordinance requiring the
Idea that the test should bo to make
every person brought Into a station
house on the charge of lntuxlcatlon
walk a chalk line or spells words. If he
Is unable to walk the required line or
spell the words correctly then that
should be sutllclent reason for locking
him up on the charge of drunkenness
At present it is a very easy matter for
an officer to 'lock a man up if he has a
grudge against him, and I don't believe
It Is right for an ofllcer to have the
power to lock a man up who Is able
to take care of himself, although he has
been drinking."

Washington, March 24. Suekvllle
West was thei victim of an anonymous
letter writer. Lorln A. Thurston Is the
victim of the Ameticun spirit of per
nicious political activity. Senor Mu-

story before the public.
lie talked freely and vigorously.
Now the senor claims the newspaper
men abused his confidence and repeat
ed all his private conversation and
aside remarks concerning the secretary
of state. However this may be, the
fact remains that the loquacious Spain

him whether or not he Intended them

Joseph WaJe, u Murderer,
Indianopolis, March 24. The pardon
of Joseph Wade from the northern
prison by Governor Matthews recalls
a crime that created intense excitement

Mrs. Frown while her husband was
serving a term In the penitentiary.
Soon after Brown's return home his
body was found at a railroad crossing

was found a buggy bespattered with
blood. All the Indications pointed to
murder and Wade and Mrs. Iirown
were arrested for the crime and both
convicted and given life sentences, one
of the children testifying that Mrs.
Brown had killed their father. Wade
is in poor health and was pardoned on
that account.
(iIRL HORRIBLY TREATED.
iler Parents Are Arrested and There Is
Talk of Lynching Them.
Hepworth, Out., March 24. The peo
ple of this village are greatly Incensed
by the cruelty with which Mary, the
1 S-year-old child of Mr. and Mrs. T. W.
Henderson, has been treated by her
parents. Their usual mode ot punish
ing the girl is by stripping her, tying
her hands together by the wrists and
suspending her from a beam and then
beating her either with a blacksnake
whip or a leather strap with a buckle
at the end.
Mr. and Mrs. Henderson were arrest
ed and the little girl was submitted to a
medical examination. Her flesh was
horribly cut and bruised and the doc
tors say they never saw such evidence
of brutal cruelty. There la talk of
lynching the heartless parents.

Xew Haven, Conn., March 24. Pro
fessor MeCook, of Trinity college, in a
lecture here on the liquor problem, gave
results of tests at the Trinity labora
tory of seventy-four samples of whis
key. The tests showed much adultera
tion and that the high-class barrooms
often sold ns poor whiskey as the lower
ones. The adulterations were so skill
ful that two expert testers could not
detect the best whisky from the bad.
l'rofessor McCook estimated the pro
fits! of whiskey sold by the glass at J3.!"i0

AXAKCHY NARKOKLY AVERTED
One Strong Man Alone Stood lletwcen
the Tin one and a Wholesale Revolu
tion Tho Spanish Army Is
Rotten to the Core.
New Tork, Mnrch 21. A special cable
dispatch to the Sun, from Madrid,
says: Secretary Gresham will proba
bly be disappointed If lie expects that
the Spanish government will give calm,
logical consideration to the questions ut
issue with the United .States ut the
present 'moment. Few people rculize
how near spaln has been to revolu
tion or anarchy, or both combined,
although the tension Is relieved by
the formation of a Conservative minis
try under Senor Canovas. The country
would now be ablaze from end to end
but for the unselfish patriotism and
bravery of one man, when, after the
resignation of Premier Hagasta's minis
try, following upon the demonstrations
by tho army officers, Marshal Martinez
Campos took command of the Madrid
military district. A coup d'etat had
been practically accomplished, and the
military were masters of the country,
and had they hud another day they
would have possessed themselves olll
eliilly of tho reins of government In
Madrid. In every garrison throughout
Spain every general and colonel had
openly approved the outrageous con
duct of the mutinous subalterms, and
the colonels of tho gendarmerie, upon
whom the government would have had
to rely to suppress the military revolt,
had expressed sympathy In similar In
subordinate fashion. Only one re
source remained to the government,
viz., to place sergeants at the head
of the troops and order thein to arrest
their officers; but neither the civilian
prime minister nor the military minis
ter of war lvad the courage to do that,
because they remembered that, not
many years ago, the sergeants them
selves were In a state of mutiny.
Campos to the Rescue.
It was at this critical Juncture that
Marshal Campos called upon Premier
Sagasta and asked to be appointed in
command of the troops and Captain-
General of Madrid. Senor Sagusla
eagerly urged the old soldier to take the
premiership, but the Marchal answer
ed, "I come as a soldier, not ns a politi
cian. It is a soldier's task which I
have to perform." When the news
spread that Marshal Campos was in
command tlie situation changed as if
by magic The officers knew he wus a
man who would shoot, at painfully
short notice, the first man who dared to
disobey his orders or even to hesitate
to obey, and 'that he had only to call
upon the rank and file to insure their
absolute obedience to his commands.
The marshal's first step was to order
all the generals and colonels to assem
ble at staff quarters, and then he had
them in his room one at a. tlmu and
made to each this little speech:
'I liold you responsible that your
officers do nothing tha t may compel mo
to commence to shoot."
That was late on Sunday evening.
At 7 p. m. on that day a deputation of
seven lieutenants had dared to call
upon the prime minister and dictate to
lie assembled ministers the terms upon
which the army would graciously per
mit the King's government to be car
ried on. Among these conditions were
the abrogation of the laws guarantee
ing the liberty of the press'. Three hours
later Marshal Martinez Campos ordered
every officer to proceed to his quarters
In the barracks and not leave them
without a written pass, and all obeyed,
including the seven cabinet dictators.
The danger is over for the present, but
the Incident has served to remind the
world of the fact that the Spanish army
is rotten to the core, and may be used
against the constitutional liberties of
the people at any moment, for It will
likely be a long time before another
brave soldier, pure and patrloitio like
Martinez Campos, will coma to the
front of public affairs in Spain.
Marnuga Is Set Kiglit.
Washington, March 24. In regard to
statements made that Secretary
Gresham has declined to have any fur
ther dealings with Minister Muruaga,
it Is pointed out that the minister has
nut had, from the first, any communica
tion with the state department regard
ing the Alllanca affair. Inasmuch as the
correspondence upon that subject has
passed directly between Secretary
Gresham and the American minister at
Madrid, Mr. Taylor. Jt Is known, how
ever, that on Wednesday last the min
ister had a note from Secretary
Gresham with respeot to other matters
within his Jurisdiction, and this fact Is
cited to show that his relations with
the administration continues friendly.
LOBBYISTS ARE BARRED.
A Woman Ordered from the', Moor of the
Lincoln House.
Lincoln, Neb., March 24. Upon the
opening of the house 'Saturday Speaker
Ituhards announced that In view of
the disturbance caused by out
siders being admitted to the floor
of the house, he would lierenfter
cnfoice the Ironclad rule to admit no
one except senators. Later a scene wus
created by the speaker stopping pro
ceedings to direct tho sergeant-at-arms
to remove a woman who had taken a

talking to llenedlct, of Douglas county.
11 was Mrs. ltlchardson, of Omaha,
a Inwyer, and though she at first, when
approached by the sergeant-at-arms,
persisted in remaining, she llnnlly

has almost reached the point of a scan

Tho Philadelphia Inquirer thinks It is

them. All the actions of the receivers
show that they are determined on this
point und they will listen to nothing that
does not contain the condition precedent
thai Reading shall have 21 per cent, of the

out against tho supplications of the New
York companies, who are calling loudly
for harmony, to win the dny." Is this a
case of whistling to keep the courage up?
