At the sitting of the Supreme Court in Philadelphia on Friday the 38th nit., Judge Pax son banded down a decision granting the peremptory mandamus asked lor by the Proepect Brewing Company, of Philadelphia, requiring the Court of Quar ter SeMioaa to grant it a wholesale liquor license for the present year. It also reversed the judgment of the Li cense Court of Allegheny county in the eaaaa of the fifteen bottler* and four or Ire wholesalers who took out writs of certiorari to the judgments refusing licenses to them. A proceed endo is granted in gach T- which is equavalent to au order directing the iseaanca of the license. la the caae ot Mary E. Pollard, of Pitts horgh. Chief Justice Paxson delivers a long opinion, holding that in granting li censee to wholesale dealers, bottlers and brewers under the act of May 24, 1887, the Coart has not the large discretion confer rod upon it by the retail act of May 13, 1177; that the discretion conferred by the wholesale act is a qualified, limited discre tion and is confined to the inquiry whether the '*** applicant for the whole sale license is a citisen of the United States, of teaiperate habits and of good mend character, as no remonstrance or objection appeared upon the record alleg ing that any of the applicants were dis qnotified for either of these reasons, the orders refesing |theee licenses were re- Tho Chief Jnstioe declares that it scarce |j requires as argument to show the pro priety «T this ruling. If the record does aat disclose the reason for the refusal it wall be impossible to review the action of the Coart below, no matter how illegal or ihMmj it aright hare been, and as to eaah matters a Quarter Sessions Judge weald sit aa abeolute a despot as the Em peror of China Staee the aaove decision was made sev and hundred wholesale and bottlers li ceaeee hare been granted in Philadelphia aad Allegheny eoanties. In Allegheny coaaty Judge Stone granted one for a prohibitory district The Brook's law—or act of May 13, *67—forbids the granting of licenses in prohibitory districts, but the wholeeale and bottlers act of May 24, 'B7, does not The only repealing clause in the Brooks law is one repealing local laws when the fees are less than those pre scribed by it, aad there is no repealing whatever in the wholesale law. This left hundreds of tag ends of old and gaaaral liquor laws besides the extensive eperiel laws for Philadelphia and Allegheny counties remaining in force, aad is a sad commentary on the intelli geace aad basinees qualifications of the legistatare that passed the acts of May 13 aad M, 1887 The next legislature will surely be call ed apoa to straighten out the whole busi aasaa. At present it is a maze of contra dietioea aad absurdities Whether the late decision be law for the whole State, or whether for Philadel phia and Allegheny counties alone, is a iltspetsfl question among the members of the Batler bar. The general opinion is that it refers to the whole State, while a few are positive that applies to Philadel pkia aad Allegheny counties alone. J edge White, of Allegheny county bad aathiaf to say regarding the decision, but Jadga Gordon, of Philadelphia, is report •d as fellows: "14a aet hesitate to say that nothing so nlmltsu to the cease of sobriety, good •cdav aad morality has happened for a lane time aa thie decision.

Slugging Triumphant. To -ay that pugilism i- condemned by pnpular sentiment is simply to say that popular sentiment condemns ruffianism anil brutality. There was a time in Kngland when ii tic content- in the rinf received more or less public conutenancg » - exhibition- of "the manly art of self-defence." But both in England and America prize fight ing long ago sunk to a degrading sport, and for generations the community a- a whole has looked upon it as even worse than bull fighting, dog fighting or cock fighting. Condemned by public opinion, it is also under the ban of the law. In nearly ev ery State of the Union it is declared a crime punishable by imprisonment. Tet it cannot be said with truth that the interest iu it is confined to roughs, out laws and the lowest class of ".-port The three thousand men who gathered around the ring at Kichburg, Mississippi, on Monday morning were not all of that class by any means. Every daily news paper in the country next morning pub lished an account of the tight as a part of the news of the day. This matter was lead with avidity by countless thousands who are not to be set down as toughs and rowdies, and who neither defend nor ex cuse prize fighting. But what is most remarkable and al most inexplicible about this latest exhibi tion of pugilism is the utter defiance of law and public sentiment which has char acterired it from beginning to end. The penal code of Xew York, for example, was openly defied and violated by one of the principals, the trainer, backers aud the stakeholder. The law of Maryland was defied and violated in the same way. Yet no attempt was made to enforce either. As the day set lor the fight approached the affair assumed the character of a grand hippodrome. Each man with his retinue of followers journeyed South in a triumph al procession greeted by enthusiastic crowds at every point. The reception of each at Xew Orleans was au ovation. The leading athletic clubs of the city vied with one another. The Queen and Cres cent Railway Company tendered all their facilities. The Western Union Telegraph Company did the same. Crowded cxcur sion trains steamed oat of the depot amid rare enthusiasm. All preliminaries for the battle were widely advertised. Every de tail was loudly proclaimed, nothing was concealed save the location of the ground. Meanwhile half a dozen Governors had issued proclamations against the fight. One even offered a large reward for the ar rest of either of the principals. The mili tia was called out. Sheriffs were exhorted to vigilance. Officers of the law were commanded to prevent the affair by every lawful means in their power. In spite of all this show of authority and in violation of the law, three or four excursion trains steamed gayly out of Xew Orleans to the oattle ground, the ring was pitched and Sullivan aud Kilrain proceeded to slug each other to their hearts' content and the heart's content of three thousand spectators. This having been done without police interference or moles tation the crowd returns to New Orleans as publicly as tbey bad left it. Even now all the active participants are liable to au indictment by a Mississippi Grand Jury, anil to extradition from any other State where they may be found. Hut nobody supposes that any of them will ever be called upon to suffer any pen alty. It is obvious that there has never been in this country a more conspicuous tri umph of pugilism over law and public au thority. It is not less obvious that prece dents of this kind cannot be multiplied without bringing the law into contempt and the national fame into disrepute. Bodies Recovered Piecemeal. Ltvciibi'Bh, Va., July 3, 1889.—Tin scene of the kerriblo disaster near Thax ton's, on the Xorfolk A Western Railroad, is beyond description. There is hardly enough left of the train of eight ears that took the leap to the bottom of the awful pit to make on* car. Unrecognizable portions of bodies have been taken out, aud it is believed that fully fifteen others were entirely con sumed by the fire. A survivor of the wreck says that cries for help were heard from all parts of the wreck, but those unhurt were powerless to render assistance. The women who managed to escape lay about on the damp grouud, suffering from their icjuries until daybreak, and many walked long distances to farm houses. The few passengers left uninjured did all in their power for the unfortunates. There were aliout thirty people who escaped with ouly slight injuries aud ten who are seriously injured. The list of the dead will lie increased as friends of the missing people come forward and identify them. There is no way at present to as certain the number of dead owing to the fact that the train was entirely consumed. The debris of the wreck has been entirely removed. STaTKMKVT OK X PASSKBOKU. Waannii.Tos, July 3, IHM9.—Henry X. Martin, of Xew Orleaus, who was on the wreck of the Xorfolk aud Western Rail road, but escaped uniujured, as bis sleeper alone of all the coaches remained on the tracks arrived in this city this evening. He said that the night of accident was very dark aud stormy, aud when he look ed out of the window ten minutes before the disaster the rain wa« coming down harder than he hail ever seen it before. An embankment hail beeu built at the scene of the washout with a small culvert beneath to carry off water. The unusiiul ly heavy rain fall hail backed the water up against this embankment and had under mined the whole mass of earth, making a deep ditch into which the engine aud seveu coaches nluuged. As soon as those who escaped realized the situation they went to the assistance of the injured, but could render very little aid, as their strength was inadequate to lift the heavy heains which pinioned most of the unfortunates. There was no shelter for the injured who were exposed to the inclement weath er. They were without medical assistance until six o'clock, when the wrecking train arrived from Roanoke, twenty-one miles distant. Xobody, Mr. Martin says, will over know just how many were lost II e added:— "I do not believe that anybody iu an ordinary coach escaped alive, and it was only by a miracle that two people in the coach in front of mine came out of the wreck alive. The conductor of the train told me that all his tickets were burned np, so that he could not tell v here the passengers come from." Normal School Closing- The closing exorcises of the Slippcryrock Xornial School were successfully held at the school, week before last. A suitable address was delivered by Miss Anna T Morrison, who also assisted Miss Christy a moment after in a piauo duet. Miss Florence Dean recited "My sou" entertain ingly. Weber then played aselcc tion ou the piano and received much ap plane. One of the events of the day was the oratiou by Mr. 0. W. Kennedy, "The liquor traffic in its various phases." A piauo duet by Misses Morrow aud Turner followed, after which Miss Lucy Fulton read au essay ou "Speech." Mr. S. 11. Mifflin then delivered the "Convict's Solil oquy." An oratiou, "Secret of Success," ably aud well prepared by R. (». Allen. A declamation. "Jennie Douglass," by Miss Mary lllack wimhl, was well received. The Misses Marshall, of Pittsburg, then favored the audience with a piano duet, which closed the exercises In the evening the iiiiuiitulde Hob Itur dette gave his lecture, "l(isc and Kail of the Mustache."

This is the third time the lady has had the affliction. A strauge freak is recorded of a big tur key gobbler belonging to David Ralston, of InJiiana County. The proud bird sonic time ago appeared nervous and restless, aud evidently wanted something to do. Mrs. Kalstou had a netting of eggs and ex perimentally she tailed the attention of the gobbler to the fact. That seemed to exactly suit the bird, anil forthwith he made "a nest and proceeded to business. For three weeks he manfully pursued his strange calling and brought forth as the result of his efforts a round dozen of downy chicks. He seemed proud of his feat but the motherly Mrs. Ralston was afraid to trust the hatchlings amid the gobler's feet, anil bestowed them on a hen with matern al instincts strongly developed.
