AlrtilKAL Mka'KE was placed on the

from the President. The Admiral had
criticised the administration's foreign
policy as un-American.
It is easy to understand that the in

conclusion that the next administra

In other words, the cuckoo is ahmad

Supreme Court, in a iiiestiii raised in
a uumlier of cases as to whether one

Thk California fruit crop has increas
ed sevenfold in the last ten years, and
its value last year was ?TiO,(t(IO,CiO. This

and it shows that the West has more
to gain from its agricultural and horti
cultural resources than from all the
precious metal in its mountains.
Thk new Lutherah Theological Sem

Confederate army during the liattle.

The Supreme Court of the United
Statin Monday decided the inome tax
law unconstitutional. Chief Justice
Fuller announced the decision. Upon
the question of the general unconsti-
tutiotialitv f the law the Justices of
the court divided as follows: Agai:it
the law, Chief Justice Fuller, Justice.
Field, timy, lirewer and Shiras; for
the law, Justices Harlan, I'rown, Jack
son and White.
Thk following editorial from the
I'ittslmrg ('miinit ,--iil itzfc voices
our sentiments :
The country has prolably liecii vexed
for the last time by a tax on incomes.
The Supreme Court by a decision of
five to four wicd out completely the
i iconic tax station of the Wilson tariff
liw. Not i vestige of it remains. The
curt adheres to the former opinion
that taxes on real estate and the in
c mie of real estate are indisputably di
rect taxes ; and further, that taxes on
ivrsoual property or u the income of
personal property ate likewise direct
taxes; and finally, that all the income
tax cctims of the act of lw4 (the
Wilson tariff) are necx-ssarily invalid,
lieing direct taxation within the mean
ing of the constitution U-cause not aj-
iKirtioneil according to representation
S the whole income tax scheme fails,
and it is announced that the officers of
the department will at oik refund the
sums already iaid in under the law
which are inconsiderable in tlie segre
gate, reaching only $73,0)0.
Tills conclusion is one which the
country generally will most heartily
iiiinrove. and the preponderance of
leiral sentiment probably leans to the
conviction that it rests upon a sound
iutcrnrctatiou of the constitution. The
opinions of the dissenting Justices will
l entit'ed to respectful consideration
although it will le freely conceded that
the weight of intellect as well as of
numU rs is against the validity of the
law. The Chief Just ice, in delivering
the oniniou of the court, said that
'while its former conclusions remained
unchanged, their scope must le en
larged by the acceptance of their logic
al consequences." The law was left in
a most confusing aud unsatisfactory
condition by the first decision, and the
M-cond was absolutely essential to re
lieve large classes of taxpayers from
liurdeiis which would have been very
unfairly and inequitably imiosed.
The effects uion the treasury w ill lie
seriously felt, as the loss frem the
source of revenue thus cut oil" will add
just so much more to the deficiency
Tlicre never was the least reason why
n deficiency should have been created
at all, much less was there the slight
est necessity for tuking the risk involv
ed in a tax which was certain to In- at
tacked as invalid. The whole resioii-
sibilitv for this disastrous failure rests
on the Democratic party. Mr.
Cleveland and the rest of the free
traders were bent on curtailing the
revenues from customs duties, and fear
ing a deficit they determined to put a
tax on incomes. The Southern Democ
racy favored this policy almost to a
man, knowing that ninety per cent, of
the tax would come from the great
manufacturing States aud the com
mercial and business centers of the
North. There were other features of
the tariff act which were quite as sec
tioual aud unfair as the income tax
provisions, but these havealready lieen
reversed by the iopular sentiment and
only await the return of the Republi
can party to power for their overthrow
Democratic stupidity and demaggism
were never more conspicuously exhibi
ted than iu the enactment of the stat
ute which the Supreme Court has
stricken down as totally void.

Tho calendar of liotli Houses at this
late day arc cnrryitiir bills first rootl

stagea toward final passage and approval
or veto bv the !overnor. As the end of
the session draws nich, iiiemtwrs with
pet bills are lieeoming anxious lest they
may not le reached, ami are clamorous
for postponement of soineUvly else's bill
and a special order for their own. With
the experience of last week.it is likely
that there will le no lack of attention to
the Irtisiness of the House on the part of
most, or at least some, of the ineinU't-s.
is I'll K SKNATK.
Tho Senate refused to agree to the
House resolution Rh ine the retiring Su
perintendent of Public Printing his desk
and chair.
Senator tJrady introduced a bill which
is intended to meet the objections raised
by J mine Itiddle, of ('unilmrland comity,
in his recent decision refusing newspaper
men access tothe marriage li'-cne docket.
The bill provides that Orphans' Court
clerks shall immediately after issuing a
marriage license enter it on the nuirrisiga
docket, and that the docket shall lie open
for tho insHXlion of the public at all
times during tlie hours when the olliee is
oeii for the purjxisc of issuing marriage
license. Any person is allowed to i.iake
a copy or alstract of the said docket en
tries for publication in any newspaerf
and the clerk who violates any of the
aliovc pro isioiis is liable to a fine of not
more than for each oHense, upon con
viction l;cfore au alderman or justice of
the eace.
The Senate concurred in the House
amendments to the act authorizing the
State to assume control of county bridges,
authorizing their purchase and making
an appropriation for the same.
The Senate bill supplementary to the
Rrooks high license bill was defeated.
The original supplement was prepared
by the Philadelphia Law and Order So
ciety, and required retail dealers to pay
the same license in cities, liormgliK and
townships, but the committee had suiisti
tuted a bill prepared by the Itctail Liquor
Healers' Association, which graded the
liiiMise fee according to the amount .f
liquor sold each year. This bill would
have reduced license fees very materi
ally. The act to prohibit the use in Slate in
stitutions of meat from cattle not killed
in the State, passed nosnid reading.
Tho Senate sustained the tiovernor's
veto of the bill to permit a married wom
an to sell real estate without her hus
t mud's consent.
IX THK HorsK.
P.y unanimous consent the following
bills were introduced :
Authorizing the manufacturers of malt
ami brewed liquors to sell their product
to licensed dealers only upon payment
into the rotiiity treasury of a certain sum
of money; also appropriating 7."i,ul for
the Western Penitent iaoy.
The following bills were defeated :
Fixing the time within which assessors
and assistant assessors of the several
counties shall file their reports ; to relieve
the owners of acreage r farm lands from
building sidewalks or keeping the same
in repair, or the property liable for the
exK-nse thereof, within the limits of in
corjMjrated Uiroiighs, itliout the owners'
consent, etc.; authorizing the election of
road supervisors for three years in the
several townshipsof tiiis Commonwealth;

storekeepers and others to secure patron
age ; to provide for a uniform contrai-t or
policy of lire insurance; joint resolution
amend constitution so as to provide for
only one election, to lie held in the fall of
each year, and designating the ollicers to
lie voted for at that time ; Senate bill pro
viding for the purchase and floating of
t'liited States Hags from the several
school buildings of this Commonwealth
went dowu for lack of a constitutional
majority.
Wednesday evening the House Com
mittee on Appropriations reported sev
enty bills and notwithstanding the an
nouncement recently made that private
hospitals and charitable institutions
would not receive a cent, thi-y have fare?!
pretty well tinder the circumstances. The
amounts asked by the various institutions
contained in the list rejiorted ngjregiUe
SiM.j,!Cl.4S and the total granted .is t'l,-.ViiOt-Viit.
About sixty miscellaneous
bills are still under consideration by the
committee.
Senate bill 11!', authorizing the super
visors and other ellicers having in charge
the construction and maintenance of pu!
lic roads to ent-t snittble buildings f..r
the storage of road machinery and for
the transaction of township business, was
called i::. and amended by Mr. Nile:-, of
Tioga, j;i a manner to allow land owners
to build sidewalks on their property
which could not lie molested bythesu
Iiervisors. The bill was laid overtoil
printed.
Oovcrnor Hastings vetoed the bid to
prohibit the capture or killing for sale or
larter of quail or Virginia partridge,
milled grouse, prairie chicken or wood
cock. The Governor's objections were
sustained by the House. Among other
things the Jovcrnor says this legislation
grunts a special and exclusive privilege
to portion of the people and denies it
to nil the rest, and it is therefore probiV
ited bv the constitution.
He i!so notified tlie House that he had
approved the House lull to establish a
State Hoard of Veterinary Medical Kx-
aminers and to regulate the prai-tueof
veterinary medicine and surgery : also
the bill changing the time and manner of
making the registry of voters.
On Thursday tac House passe I on sec
ond reading the Congressional, Senatorial
aud 1-gislaiivc apportionment bills as
retsirted from committee. They will
come up next Tuesday for fuml passage.
The House Congressional and Senatorial
bills are ditferent from the Senatorial
bills, and the result will I that all the
measures on this subject will go to a con
ference committee, assuring their passage
by lolh Houses. The Judicial appor
tionmcnt bill passed the House six weeks
ago mid is now looming up in the Senate
committee. There was some opposit ion
to the legislative apportionment ; the
members whose counties lose in repre
sentation tried to amend it so as to leave
the present districts as they are, but in
this they were not successful. The Ix'gis
lative ratio is d ,. I'nder this ratio
there will te only iSt members instead of
J4, as at present, ltlair, Cambria, Clear
field aud Jefferson each gain a represen
tative under the new apportionment, and
lledford, Chester. Clarion, Crawford, Col
umbia, Huntingdon, Ijtwrcnoe, Mercer,
Somerset and Pradford each lose one.
The Smith bill, providing another
n ict le si for the distribution of the school
fund, will lie called up for final disjio
sition on Tuesday next.
The Cochrane bill, providing for a tax
of twenty-four cents a letrrel on lieer, was
amended so as to exempt Jcer manufac
tured for export, and after some debate
passed second reading. The bill provid
ing fir taxation on the shares of stock of
any Iwnk incorporated under the laws of
the State or the I'nited States, also passed
second reading.
The question of final adjournment is
still unsettled. Five weeks ago the
House fixed upon May td as the day, if
the Senate concur. The Senate proposes
June ith. and it is jsissible that the
House will make it June Pith. Should
even the latter date le fixed, there must
be no time lost, as the appartionuient and
appropriation bills are only fairly under
way, not to seak of others of vital im
portance, among them tho revenue bill,
which should be finally acted upon.
There have lieen some one hundred and
twenty appropriation bills reported in the
House, not to sH-ak of those in the Sen
ate, some of which have been passe; I, but
the bulk ofthein remain tolieai-ted ujmuu
The estimated revenue for the next two
years will le ?J0,(i,frt. The general ap
propriation bill, including tMl.tf'V'M for
scholia, carries a total of ?lo,."rt(.'M, and
the appropriation tor btrictly State insti
tutions swallows up the balance of the
fji,'"), leaving alisolutely nothing for
private charities, unless the legislature
consent to a cut of 1,000, from the
public schools, it looks as if the legis
lature will yet have to provide for ad
ditional revenue either by taxing lieer, as
has lieen proosed, or by increasing the
niillag" on corporations by amending the
present revenue law.
A bill on the third reading calendar
will soon bo reached, which prohibits
peddlers from tramping over the rural
districts selling a misellaneous line of
fake goods, which nolnsly wants but
which many people buy Ikh-jiusc they are
afraid of the vicious looking tramp mer
chants. They are one of the pests the
people of the country have to contend
w ith, and should lie suppressed.
On the JSth of February ML Piddle,
representative from lledford, introduced
a bill making an appropriation to aid the
several counties in this commonwealth in
the construction and maintenance of pul
lic roa ls, and providing the manner of
the distribution of the same, which was
reported from the Committee on Agricul
ture March 7th, passed first reading
March Kth, re-committed to the Appro
priation Committee March loth, where it

Flayed and Burnt.
Ki.i.avii.lk, Fla., May 1!). Miss Mamie
Armstrong, the daughter of a prominent
farmer, left her home six days ago to
spend the night with a r.cighlior who
lived alxuit two miles distant. The next
day Miss Armstrong's father went to the
house of the ncighlsir to bring his daugh
ter home, and was surprised and alarmed
to hear that nothing had lieen seen of her.
Mr. Armstrong alarmed the neighbors
and searched for the missing girl. Tho
searchers found the corpse of Miss Arm
strong in a clump of bushes. The Istdy
was in a horrible condition. Kvery shred
of clothing had been tern off and sho had
been assaulted.
Tho lower liinlis had ls;en terribly
mutilated and her head crushed and throat
ciL It is evident that the girl had made
i desperate tight, as under her nails were
found pieces of black cuticle which she
had torn from her assailants.
After caring for the mangled corpse the
enraged whites Ingan a search for the
fiends. When they reached the home of
Sam Kcholis, a negro, he ran out and
started for the wood but was slopped with
a bullet which wounded him slightly.
The negro was examined and his face
f.mnd to lie scratched. Threatened with
instant death ho confessed that he with
Sam Crow ley aud John Urooks had mur
dered the girl. Keholes said that they
kept the girl hours liefore killing her ;
and that most of the time Miss Arm
strong was unconscious.
Just what death was meted out to the
negroes is not known, but it is reported
that they were llaycd alive and then
burned. The scene of the crime and the
tripple lynching is near t-arge Phosphate
Mines, in which are employed many
i; -gr.K s. Assaults on white women have
lieen frequent, and within the last 12
iiionius V2 negroes have been lynched m
that ieinity.
Loisei by the Cold Snap.
Kejiorts received at the state depart
ment of agriculture indicate that much
damage has lieen done to the Pennsyl
vania fruit crop by the recent wild snap.
It is too ear! v to estimate the exact amount
of injury sustained. Second reports are
lieing received, indicating that the damage
is not so great as fi-at suip.icd. This is
true in relation to the interior portions
of the state and tlie counties of Cambria,
Somerset and Plair. In tiiose counties
the indications are that the fruit crop.
except jicachcs, has not lieen greatly
dai.iaged, and that the crop of early vege
tables has recei ved a set I mi-k which, in
many localities, will compel replanting.
Along the northern and noihwestern
birder re;sirts indicate that the crops of
Niagara and other early grapes have sus
tained an irreparable injury, and that the
new growth has lieen cut lck to the
hard wood of last year.

Pennsylvania now has a compulsory
school law for the first time in its history.
Oovernor Hastings Thursday signed the
Farr Kdiicational bill, and the million
school children of the State will soon ex
perience its effects.
The Uovernor gave the following rea
son for his approval of the bill:
"Hy giving my approval to this meas
ure there will appear upon our statute
I looks for the first time in the history of
the Cetiimonwealth a compulsory educa
tional law, Thclieneral Assembly in the
sessions of 1S!1 and ls".G passed a com
pulsory educational act somewhat simi
lar to the present measure, each of which
met with Mxecutive disapproval. There
apjiears to lie throughout the Common
wealth a general desire for such a law.
I have not received a single protest from
any citizen against this bill so far as I can
recall.
"The unanimity with which it was
passed by tho legislature as well as the
largo uumlier tif requests made upon me
to sign it clearly indicate tho general de
sire on the part of the people for a com
pulsory educational law.
I nder these conditions I am convinc
ed that I should not obtrude any individ
ual judgment which I may have on the
question of public policy. This measure
provides for compulsory education iu
h rliajis the least objectionable form to
those who oppose it on principle, and of
fends as little against the personal rights
ofthe citizen as possible. I, therefore,
approve the bill; but if, by experience.
the expectations of the people are not
realized, future legislation doubtless will
meet their demand."
FKATl'KKS OF THK XEW BILU
Tho new law requires that every child
iu the Commonwealth between the ages
of S and 11 years shall attend for at least
I.! weeks in each year a school in which
the common English branches are taught.
Only such children shall be exempted
from these provisions as aro certified by
parents or guardians to bo mentally or
physically incapacited, or who live two
miles from a public school or who are
being otherwise instructed in the com
mon branches and arc so certified by the
principal of a school.
A fine of 2 is provided for the first
offense of anyone against the law, and
1 for each succeeding oiTense. An ap
peal to tho Cou it of (Quarter Sessions is
allowed to the negligent parents or guard
ians. Hoards of School lfirectors or Con
trollers arc authorized to appoint truant
otliccra to lietter enforce attendance at
school.
A census of the school children in every
voting district must lie taken by the dis
trict Assessor at the same time that the
annual assessment is made, and certified
to tho secretary of the district School
Hoard. Kaeh teacher is required to re
port to the School Hoard secretary month
ly tho names of all children who have
Ihhii alisent without satisfactory reason
for five smy-essive days.
The Sch'sil ltonrd secretary must then
proceed against the parents or guardians
of the chid. A plea of jiuverty, made by
the parents or guardian, if sustained by
the evidence, is expressly declared a suf
ficient excuse for non-compliauce with
the a-t, and in such a case tho cost of
prosecution is to lie paid by the Sclnsd
Hoard.
The failure of any School Hoard secre
tary to comply with the provisions of
the law is declared a misdemeanor, and
he is liable to a fine not exceeding ?2.".

Pain is always a terrible visitant, and
often domiciles itself with one for life.
This infliction is preventlble, in case of

dangerous malady at the outset. The
term "dangerous" is used ad vised 1 v. for

vital organs and terminate life. No tes
