The controversy as to the legality of
the Republican Senate in Xew Jersey
waa ended Wednesday. The Supreme
Court held that the Kigers Senate as or
ganiztd by the Republicans was the legal
Senate and that the rump Senate recog

decision secures to the Rer ublicans the
full results of the victory of last fall.
The ex-president of the Royal College
of Veterinary Surgeons of England says
public drinking tronghg for horses are a
curse to horseflesh, as they spread farcy
and glanders. A considerable ventila
tion of the matter is in progress, and it
eeems to be conceded by experts that
the danger is in the contact of the hors
es' mouths and not so much in their
iteing tbe same troughs. Troughs w ith
separate compartments are recommend

With seme reserve, as might be ex

taking quite such big strips from the hide

ant has betrayed the faith and forfaited
the respect heretofore bestowed upon the
Congressional successor of Clay, Mar
shall, Crittenden, and Beck. So, thouh
they do not rend the recreant knight,
they turn away in sadness, presumably

A coRKtsruSDENT of the Xew ork Stn,
writing some political prognostications
from Albany, savs that on th basis of
the late town ajd municipal elections
the Republicans will carry the N'ovem
er elections by a majority of 100,000.
The same aathority reports the two
strongest gubernatorial caniidates in
tight to be ex Vice President Morton and
Irtjvernor Flower. The leading causes
ascribed fur a dreiry Democratic outlook
are hard times, party divisions, and dis
satisfaction, owing to misplaced patron
age, with the national administration.
All things considered, Sew York should
v.t be looked npjn as a doubtful State
text fail
Political xjphyrs are swaying straws
hither and thither. By and by the cy
clone. But just now there is wind enough
to reckon by. Last Tuesday there were
a few local elections ia New Yrk towns.
In Dolgeviiie, where Alfred Dolge, the
protected manufacturer and president of
the village, has had to stand the assaults
of the New York Reform Ciub, iIr. Do!ge
was re-elected by a big majority. That
is to say, the first time since the village
w as incorporated that Mr. Dolg met with
opposition he won by a majority of 2iS
ia a vote of In the village of Malone
the Republican majority was more than
double whrt it had ever been. Such
signs show that when the whole Repub
lican party takes a day off good times
wiil be rushed back with a vengeance.
Is ber-alf of the law-abiding citizens
of Monroe county, the editor of the
Stroodsbnrg Jtfmoiuan repudiates the
recent lynching in that place in the fol
lowing vigorous language:
" Stroudsburg for over half a century
has been our home and daring that time
it has been our p.eaeure to approve and
rejoice in many of bercompleted enter
prises ; and no act of hers baa ever made
ns ashamed of oar adopted home until
last Thursday morning, when a few hot
headed youths and weak-minded men
unwittingly inaugurated the Southern
and border civilization in our midst. The
announcement of tbe fact was impulsive
and paralyzing to every moral impulse of
our best cit izens. Had the prisoner been
shot down while endeavoring to escape
do protest would have been made.
"The negro and Lis executioners alike
violated the fundamental principle of
government and law. The negro violat
ed it for the sake or money, while Lis
self-appointed executioners violated it
for vengeance. If they both were al low
ed to have their way anarchy would be
inaugurated and law become a foot-ball
to be kicked at wilL There was no
shadow of justifying excuse for this
shameful and blistering crime against
our civilization and the good repute of
our borough. The negro was captured,
and Lis legal punishment was as sure as
fate. The laxity at the jail, which result
ed in his temporary escape, would have
resolved itself into ten-fold vigilance and
security in the future. The lynchers
most father their wicked and mad crime.
" Stroudsburg does not approve of such
barbarism. Her head and heart con
demn it from beginning to end. This
community will have no part nor lot in
it. Those who committed the crime
niuot answer for it both to public opin
ion and to the law. It is their affair
alone. This town washes its hands of it.
The lynchers must take all the glory the
las leas element will temporarily accord.
am1 ail tbe shame and dishonor our best
citizens and law-abiding community will
mete out to them.'
The Court's Decision on the New
Jersey Senate Muddle.
TLe deadlock in the New Jersey Legislat
ure was ended Wednesday by a decision of
the Stale Supreme Court, which, after assert
ing its own jurisdiction in the matter, sus
tained ail of the contentions of the Repub
licans. There was but one dissenting voice.
Good cilizens everywhere wiil rtjoics that
the Supreme Court of New Jersey, compos
ed of rive Democrats and three Republican
Judges, has decided, with only one dissect
ing vote, that the Rogers Senate, composed
of Republicans, ia the legally constituted
Senate of the State. Tbe decision is based
on the doctrine that the majority must rule.
The former Legislature, controlled by Dem
ocrat;, sold itself out to the race track gam
biers. The result was a revolt by the people
last November and the election of a Repub
lican Senate and a Republican House. The
House was organized by the Republicans
without any ditaculty, but two Senates were
orpauized, one composed exclusively of
Ieiu-jcrats and the other exclusively of Re
pubikans. The Governor, by the advice of
the Attorney General, recotrniz-Ki the I-ni-ocratic
or Aslrain Senate (Mr. Adrain being
President), and the House recognized the
Republican or Rogers Senate (Mr. Rageis
being President ). Legislation was impossi
ble uor did the Legislat'tre or the Governor
posstss ony authority by which to break
the deadlock that ensued.
Tbe question, however, was at length tak
en to the Supreme Conrt and exhaustively
arpued, both parties agreeing to abide by
the Court's decision. Ia the mean time tbe
Republican Senate and House bad pa-sed
several aits; including a repeal of the ob
noxious race track legislation, and in joint
session had elected a State Comptroller and
State Treasurer.
The problem presented to the Conrt to de
termine was not very difficult, in spite of
the ingenuity of the Democratic counsel in
trying to prove that the constitution intend
ed to give the minority of tbe Senate the
right to pass upon the credentials of the ma
jority. The Senate of New Jersey is com
posed of 21 n-e rcbers. Of these nine were
bold over Set.aMrs and Democrats. The re
volt of the people against race track corrup
tion resulted in the return of 11 Republi
cans and only one Democrat to the vacant
seats. The Democrats set np the preposter
ous claim that the bold over Senators could
organize the Senate and pass upon the cre
dentials of the newly-elected Senators. The
Republicans would not submit to this, as it
was the well known purpose of the Demo
erats to reject Bradley, of Monmouth, admit
his Democrutic competitor and thus make
the Senate Democratic instead of Republi
can. The newly elected Republican Sena
tors, therefore, met by themselves and or
ganiad. Tbey were eleven in number.
Tbe Democrats, ten in number, also met by
themselves. If they had met hvether on
equal terms the Republicans could of couise,
have controlled the organization.
TLe Jtcmocratic obstructionists are thns
routed, foot, horse and dragoon. The will
of the people of New Jersey expressed at the
polls last November by over majority
has at last been carried into effect and the
laws legalizing race Hack gambling are wip
ed eff the statute books.
Democratic "Economy" Humbug.
The total of appropriations of the present
session of Congress, will te approximately
$.;7u,(VX). This will exceed by a few
millions the appropriations of the first ses
sion of the last Congress, and will disappoint
those who hal hoped that the low condition
of the Treasury fun Js would result in a ma
terial reduction in appropriations.
Kighl of the great appropriation bills hsve
already been reported to the House, and
three of them Lave been passed. The total
of these in iheir present stage is $.H.ji . ;;'.
This is about $1 j,"MJ X more than the same
bills carried two years re.
The Jail No Place For Brides.
Dotlistows-, Ta., March 23. JaJfe
Yerkes to-day fired a shot at the Sheriff and
the customs prevailing at the jail.
"The jail ia not the place to go pic-nicking,"
said he; "it is no place for bridrl
couplci to visit on their honeymoon tours."
Tbe jail officials were cautioned not to per
mit it.
Judge Yerkes also gave some unexpected
bints relative to tbe practice of holding reli
gious services in tbe jail. He Baid: "We
do not understand the last ot people who go
to the jail to attend religious services, and
we expect that in tbe future this shall stop,
absolutely stop, and hereafter only the chap
lain or clergy of the church to which the
prisoners go will be permitted to conduct
services there. Kora choir to go there with
musical inurnment, attracting a crowd, is
simply encouraging a morbid curiosity
which ought .to be suppressed rather than
encouragtd."
Held Up Through the Malls.
Coixjms. Ind.. March 22. Farmer James
Daugherty, living south of this city, is agi
tated over the receiving o( an aaonrmous
letter through the postoSce here yealcrday.
Mr. Daugherty is one of tbe most highly r
sjected men of this county and ia wealthy.
The letter is as follows :
Iwantycu to put$l.0 at tbe southwest
coiner of yourhop lot, put in a baking pow
der can and bury it about six incbes under
the ground and put a brick over it so I ran
find it. When I come and tail to find it I
will burn your barn and poison your stock,
a-od if ycu think I am not a mau of my
word try me and see. Now, mv friend, if
you biow this I will stick dynamite under
your housrsome night and there will be a
strange aoe in h lor breakfast. Now put
the money, i I , in a baking powder cm
and bury it in the hot; pen in the corner
near the railroad, so I can find it. Do this
as you value your life and vour prosperity,
and do so on tbe nipbt of March 23. If I do
not take the money in one year you ran
have it. If yon don't put it there you will
know when I come.
A Gigantic Fake.
CasTOH, O., if arch 25. Coxey "com
monweal army," which be proposes to lead
from Massiilon on Easter Sunday is one of
the biggest "fakea'' ever perpetrated on the
public. Metropolitan newspapers are now
sending their best men here and to Massiilon
to follow np the "army" and send in re
ports. They will be sadly disappointed
when tbey find out that Coxey ' army"
will consist of less than M people.
Coxey and Carl Browne call the news
paper men together every day and read them
a half bushel or so of mail from people who
certainly think Coxey a crank.
Most of the newspaper men sent here are
disgusted with their assignments and .say
they have often been sent on wild goose
chases, but that this leads them all.
Coxey and Browne are after newspaper
notoriety and are getting it. They likely
will start on tbe trip, and by newspaper
puffing will draw large crows at all their
stopping places to hear their tilly speeches.
The "army" wiil consist moUy of news
paper men.
a OAESD riZZLC
CaKToir, Ohio, March 25. Coxey 'a army
of the commonweal moved out of Massiilon
to-day on schedule time. There were per
haps 75 stragglers in line at the start and 25
less when Canton, eight miles away, was
reached. Carl Browne, chief marshall, who
headed the procession, was mounted on a
white horse and was followed by half a
dozen aides, all mounted on horses belong
ing to Coxey, who rode in a carriage drawn
by a pair of spirited steeds. Tbe procession
consisted of the marshals, Coxey, his wife
and sister, a bugler, four covered wagons
containing camping outfits, baled straw and
several quarters of beef ; a brass band that
played all kinds of music at once and tbe
soldiers of tbe commonweal on foot. They
marched single file and two abreast as pleas
ed their fancy and, with very lew except
ions, were bard looking citizens. This they
claimed was not their faolt, but the fault of
our system of government,
Tbe weather was pleasant when the start
was made, but the procession was soon over
taken by a severe snow storm. This had a
depressing tendency and a number of deser
tions were reported before Reeduburn, tbe
first stop, was reache 1. After a brief stay at
Reeduburn the army resumed itsonward
march and reached Canton shortly after 4
o'clock, where Camp Lexington was pitch
ed. Coxey is enthusiastic and claims the
movement thus far exceeds his most san
guine expectations, but this ia hardly in
keeping with his former declarations.
On the march from Massiilon to Canton
tbe army was foliowed by a mob of nearly a
thou; and people in carriages, on horseback
and a foot. Thy made the welkin ring
with their cheers and kept Coxey constantly
bowing end Sifting his bat. reaching
Canton the army was greeted by fully lO.O.X)
people, bo were crowded on the sidewalks
and in windows and balconies along the
street. Every one regarded the affair as a
huge joke and good humor prevailed on all
sides. Camp Lexington was pitched on a
vacant lot near the workhouse shortly after
4 o'clock, and the tramps constituting the
army of commonweal at once bfgan build
ing botfires, tcattering straw upon the
ground and making other preparations to
keep comfortable during the night.
The army had to start on its march with
out a "Gotldess of Peace," as no maiden
could be found to assume that role. Instead
of a goddts, however, a burly negro has
been enlisted to carry the banner, thus giv
ing the African race representation in the
movement. One group of five soldiers de
serted ia a holy before Canton was reached.
Their marshal thought the celestial powers
were not exercising proper discretion in
seudingasnow storm upon the advancing
hosts and advised his .men to break for pas
sing freight trains. They heeded his advice
and have not been beard from since. It is
feared by some of Coxt'y's lieutenants that
there will be more desertions before morning
unless the weather moderates, owing to the
prevalence cf comfortublo hay mows in these
parta.
With tbe ground covered to the depth of
half an inch with snow, nothing to eat but a
short supply of bread and cheese and a little
straw to sleep on, the Coxey recruits are ia
anything but a j yous mood to-night. Mur
muring under the big circus tent, where (he
commonweal army is quartered, is loud and
general. Coxey 's soldiers declare that
things must improve at once or they will go
back to begging. Coxey and his lieutenants
arestili sanguine and are endeavoring to
imbue their followers with confidence by
making speeches which, however, don't
seem to have the deired effect.
Coxey regards the auow storm as a good
omen. He ssys to-day is his birthday ; that
he was born on Eister Sunday, April 16,
L-vM, and the snow was a foot deep that day.
Coxey has a typewriter with him and pro
poses to .hire a stenographer to act as his
secretary.
While to-day has been a gala day so to
speak for fun-lovers who have regarded the
Coxey movement as a joke, tbe time cannot,
it is believed, be far distant when there will
be an awakening to the fact that tbe permit
ting of such men as Browne and Smith to
gather together such a looking crew as they
have had to-day and march them through
the country is no joke. The outrageous
manner in wbi;h Christ's name ia used is
enough to warrant interference.
TflXT FBEFEE WABX QUARTERS.
A visit to police headquarters at midnight
showed that over 5of the army bal desert
ed Camp Lexington and were rejoicing in
the comfortable heat of the vags' room.
They say that while the b;g fires at the camp
are all right there is no straw to-night and
the rotten old circ ;s tent does not keep out
the wind. It is a bitter cold night. About
20 are lef: at tbe camp and the balance have
sought ehelter elsewhere. Itrowne and
Smith have joined Coxey at the Hurford.
The men at the police station are in doubt
whether they will join the army in the
morning or .not. It all deieads on what
kind of breakfast is served.
Waited For Him to Die.
Doxies, N. Y, March 23. Mrs. Rosa
Leib, of East Front street, awakened Under
taker Kelb Ute last ciht and told him she
wanted him to come to her bouse and lay
out her husband. The undertaker knew
her husband had been very ill, so he got
reaJy and drove over to tbe house.
Mrs. Leib met him at the door as be was
fastening on the crape. "Wail awhile," she
said. "I wonid't put on the crape yet. It
would bring ne-ghbors in and Henry isn't
dead yet. I thought be was pretty near
gone when I went after you, but he's a little
better now. He can't last long, though, so
come in and take off your coat I don't
thir.k he'll keep you waiting long."
The astonished undertaker did remain for
half an hour, discreetly keeping bis presence
unknown to tbe dying man, who was, still
unconscious. Then he got tired and went
home. Mr. Leib lingered on until this
morning, when be died.
Hot After Breckinridge.
New Yore, March 24. The fourth annual
business meeting and election of otDcers of
the National Christian League for tba Pro
motion of Social Purity was held this after
noon at the beadquartors of the league in
this city. The meeting was well attended
and it was a long one. for there was much
important business to be transacted. One
cause of the I jag continuance of the meet
ing was aa animated discussion concerning
Congressman Breckinridge, ia which the
ladivs bscame involved. They finally de
cided to sends memorial to Congress pro
testing asunat allowing Colonel Breckin
ridge to retain his seat. They also decided
to send a comatunication to Mrs. Breckin
ridge formerly Mr. Wing, calling upon her
in tbe name of womanhood to renounce her
husband and to refuse to live with him
longer.
In addition to this they voted to call upon
the Presbytery with which Colonel Breckin
ridge is connected asking to have the Con
gressman expelled.
Thes; actions were taken upon the motion
of Mrs. Ciarke Belle, who is president of the
Wotusn's Health Protective Association.
Wanted Money or Death. '
Ea Faasasco, March 23. A man went
into a branch office of the San Francisco
savings anion, which is situated at the cor
ner of Market and Polk streets, about 9:30
o'clock this morning. He presented a writ
ten demand for money to Cashier William
A. Herrick. The demand was refused,
whereupon the desperado murdered the
cashier and fled, but was captured a few
blocks away. The note presented to tbe
murdered cashier read aa follows :
"Mr. Cashier:
"Sib After considering my deplorable
condition I am convinced that this life is
not worth living without desperate means,
and therefore I am resolveJ to make one
more enort to seek help to sustain my mis
erable existence. Should yon not comply
with my demand I am compelled to employ
my last remedy a bottle of uitro glycerine
and to bury myself under the ruins of tbe
building, blasted'to everlasting nothingness.
Yours respectfully,
A DEarxaaTC Mas.'
This note was penned with red ink, and
t the bottom was roughly sketched a skull
and cross bones.
After glancing at the document Herrick
returned it to the man with a shake of tbe
bead. The man quickly drew a revolver
and fired, but his aim was bad. Herrick
seized his pistol, which lay beside the desk.
The cashier and desperado fired at each oth
er almost simultaneously. The former miss
ed, bnt the hitter's second shot found its
mark. The bullet passed into Derrick's
heart.
As the murderer turned to flee Book-keeper
C. 8. Melvin drew a pistol and sent a
number of ballets after him, two of which,
it was afterward discovered, took effect. The
assassin was pursued from the scene by a
large crowd of people, among whom were
many police officers. Tbe fugitive jumped
into a wagon and drove several blocks. Fi
nally he turned into a blind alley and was
forced to abandon the wagon. He jumped
over a fence into a yard and crawled into a
vacant Jot. There the officers located bim
and, though the murderer had a pistol in
bis possession, he surrendered.
Vpon the prisoner were found two 45-cali-ber
pistols, a belt full of cartridges, a dirk
knife, a razor and a fuse, such as is used to
ignite dynamite. Upon being taken to the
city prison he gave bis name as Fred Ben
nett, and said be came here from Denver
last week. He bad been seriously wounded
by Melvin's bullets, one striking between
bis temple and eye, the other lodging in his
left shoulder.
Washed the Feet of Paupers.
Wilmisoto.x, Del., March 22. For the
first time in the history of the Catholic
Church in America, a Bishop washed the
feet of 13 poor men to day, in imitation of
the Lord's humiliation l'KRJ yearsago. The
ceremony, which took place in St. Peter's
Pro-Cathedral, was witnessed by an im
mense number of spectators.
Preceding the ceremony of washing feet,
the ceremony of the procession took place.
The clergy were attired in white and gold
vestments, and all of them, bearing ignited
wax candles, entered from the sacristy and
took up a position on either side of the Bish
op. A great white and gold canopy, borne
aloft on tall poles, held in the hands of
white-g'.oved officials, stood at the centre
aisle of the sanctuary gatewsy. The pro
cession i-a.sel beneath it, chanting, the aco
lytes swinging their censers and filling the
air with fragrant perfume.
The Bishop then appeared with his min
ister, who bore a bsin with water and tow
els. The poor men, who were brought from
the county almshouse, were ranged within
the sanctuary, seated on a bench facing the
people. They were attired in their every
day clothing. The right foot only of each
was bared. Bishop Curtis washed tbe foot
of each man and dried it with a towel. Af
ter the ceremony the Bishop presented each
of the poor men with a gift.
It is understood that this is tbe first pub
lic occasion of tbe observance of the ceremo
ny in any church in this country. It is
called the "Mandatum; or, Washing Feet."
It is the papal custom to wash the feet of
pilgrims. Ambassadors to tbe Holy See to
have the right of selection among the differ
ent pilgrims.
Tortured an Old Woman.
A shocking outrage wos ommitted at
Johnstown, Wednesday night, when rob
bers, lured by tbe hope of finding boarded
gold, tortured Mrs. Barclay Hoy ia a terri
ble manner. She was banged, burned and
maltreated so frightfully that she may not
recover.
Mrs. Hoy is a widow SO years old and lives
in what is known as an Oklahoma house,
one of the small structures erected for tem
porary purposes, just af.er the flood. The
belief has generally existed that she was
miserly and that she bad concealed about
the premises a considerable sum of money.
It was for tbe purpose of robbery that
four marked men broke into her house after
midnight.
They went to the old woman's bed and
told her their mission. She said she had no
money, and could give them none. Ea rag
ed at ber reply, tbe vidians pu led her from
bed, and securing a rope, said they would
hang her if she refused to reveal the where
abouts of her money. In vain she pleaded
fer mercy. First completely disrobing her,
tbey banged ber by the neck until she was
almost strangled. Then they held a lighted
candle under her feet. But even this cruel
torture failed to wring from her the hiding
place of her treasure, if such she bas.
Then the robbers subjjcled their victim to
the most brutal indignities.
They ripped to pieces all her clothing in
the hope of finding money sewed in tbe
setms. They finally found 70 cents and de
parted, leaving Mrs. Hoy in an extremely
critical condition. The flesh on her feet was
burned to the bone, and tbe hanging pro
duced serious injury.
The police have not yet made any arrests.
Tragic End of a Baptism.
Hollidatsbcro, March 25 There was
a tragic sequel to a baptism here to-day.
Despite the piercing cold weather, 2,5u0
people assembled on the banks of the Juniata
river to witness the baptism of 25 converts
to the Church of God. The spectators shud
dered in the bitting winds, and shivered
sympathetically as the subjects for baptism
went down into the cold water and came up
dripping in the blasts tl a', suggested the
coming of a snowstorm.
The immersions were finished, and the
converts were crowded into carriages to be
hurried away. One heavily loaded hack
broke down, barling the passengers into the
roadway. Several were injured, and Miss
Elsie McManany and Mrs. Weetley were
dung out in a way that produced concession
of the bmin, and both will die. Of the five
others wounded none are seriously irjured.

The Complexion of a Chinese
Is not yellower than that of an unfortunate

dull pain in the region of theorgiu siT.-cled,
tbe tongue iscoateJ, breath sour, sick bead
aches usually but not always occur, and
there is sometimes dizziness on arising from

WASHINGTON.
Low Rales on the B. & O.
Washington ! What a host of recolections
flood in the memory at the mere mention of
tbe name.

Garfield and Blaine all the great statesmen
and soldiers whose names are like the stars
in the flag of our country this is the thea
tre of their great achievements, the forum of
their memorable debates, the arena of their
struggles and their triumphs; aside from its
historic associations, Washington is justly

Thumb-Nail Testimony Beaten.
New Orleiits, La., March 22. Asa Guy
Gurney, Chief Money Clerk of the American
Express Company, who was chargrd with
stealing $22,i"0 from a package shipped
from New York, was acquitted to day after
a week's trial. This wa3 despite damaging
testimony presented by David N. Carvalho,
the New York expert, who found not only
that the broken wax npon the package had
been resealed by means of a h-iy-ae master's
badge, which was identical with tbe one in
Gurney 's possession, but also that the faint
impression of a thumb left by the thief upon
the wax answered in every detail ts to its
markings tbe thumb of Gurney. Gurney
will now sue the express company for heavy
damages.

Burt Pleads Guilty.
Wallace Burt, the Cherokee half breed, at
Doyiestown, on Tussdsy, pleaded guilty to
the murder of Samuel M. Rightly and his
wife, last September.
The crime to which Burt pleaded guilty
was committed in Northampton township,
Bucks county, on Sunday morning, Septem
ber 21, 1S03, and, from its unusual atrocity,
attracted ranch attention. Samuel M.
Right'.ey and his wife Lena, aged respective
ly 84 and 80 years, were murdered ia their
beds between 4 and 7 o'clock on that mora
ing. A box containing about ill or $15 was
taken from beneath the old couple's pillow,
and a lighted lamp was then thrown into tbe
bed between the couple, setting fire to the
bed-clothing. When Mrs. Sletler, a relative
and neighbor, who bad been waiting upon
the old couple, went to the house that morn
ing at 7 o'clock, the flames bad gained con
siderable headway, but were finally quench
ed by neighbors.
At the first trial, last January, it was ad
mitted that if Butt was guilty at all he was
guilty of first degree murder. At that trial
the jury failed to agree after being out six
days. Attbeeudof that time Judge Yerkes
was compelled to discharge the jury, on ac
count of thi sickness of one of the jurors.
Judge Yerkes, on Thursday, sentenced
Burt to be banged.

Newspaper Decisions.
The Conrts have decided that the kiV.ot
ing is the law as applies to newspapers :
1. Subscribers bo do not give expres.
notice to the contrary are considered as
isbing to renew their subscriptions.
2. If subscribers orderthediscontinuance
of their periodical, the publisher may con
tinue to send their paper until ull ar
rearages are paid.
3. If subscribers neglect or relusc to lace
their periodicals from tbe pobtothce to which
thT a directed, they are responsible until
they have settled their bills and ordered
them discontinued.
i. If subscribers move to other places
without informing tbe publisher, and the
pipers are sent to the former addrese, they
are held responsible.
5. The Courts have decided the refusal to
take periodicals from the otHce or removing
and leaving them uncalled for is prima fa
cie evidence of intentional fraud.
C. If subscribers pay in advance they are
bound to give notice at the end of the time
if tbey do not wish to continue tak mg it ;
otherwise the publisher is authorized to
send it and the subscriber will be responsi
ble until an express notice with paymeut of
ail arrearages is sent to the publisher.
Tbe latest postal laws are such that news
paper publishers can arrest any one for fraud
who takes a paper and refuses to pay for it.
Under this law the man who allows bis sub
scription to run oa for some time unpaid
and then orders it discontinued, or orJers
the postmaster to mark it "refused," and
baveapoetai card sent notifying the pub
lisher, leaves himself liable to arrest and
fine, the same as for theft.
