LEGAL NEWS. THE SCPBEME COURT. Bnt one capital case was argued at the late term of the Supreme Court in Pitts burg and that was from Cumberland coun ty. The defendant is Charles Salyards. After the trial and conviction at Car lisle, Cumberland county, of Salyards, fur the murder of a man named Martin, it was discovered that the jary had been plied with whisky during the whole trial. The public press loudly denounced a verdict so obtained. This ca.se, on appeal to the Supreme Court, was heard two or three weeks ago, and a good deal of interest is manifested to learn the result, which has not yet been announced. j Among the reasons given for a new trial are: "Because of the misconduct of the ! jury, in drinking whi.-ky, beer, brandy,<tc., while the prisoner's life was in their hands: and in drinking it to excess." In support of this reason it was shown by the admission under oath of the con stables put in charge of the jary that they had furnished them large quantities of whisky, <fcc. The constables testified that | the courthouse janitor, appointed by the I court to assist them, and the landlord of ' the hotel where the jary was put told them j the court ordered that the jury should have I such drinks as they desired, but that it | should not be carried to them ty the bot ' tie; and that they gave each of the jurors j three drinks a day, morning, noon and night, chiefly whisky: which, amounting to nearly bfty dollars in about a week, was charged to the county. It was shown also that one of the constables admitted having furnished the jury a "case" —24 bottles of beer—for Sunday. This is not controvert ed by the defense. THE KIXGSBCBY CASE. . On Thursday last, in the U. S. District Court sitting in Pittsburg, Cyrus 0. Kings bury, late postmaster at Ccntreville, plead guilty to the charge of embezzlement, and then Co. Treas. Wilson and Senator Sho walter went on the stand and told the Court of his age, and mental and physical condition; and on Saturday the Court sen tenced him to pay a fine of $1 and the costs of prosecution.

The following is a clipping from ine Wilksbarre Murnicg Herald: A very good and certainly a most appre ciative audience gathered in Music Hall last night to ■welcome the return ol Waite's Comedy company. Novbing was wanting in any respect to make the play a success, and throughout it all interest and excite ment were kept to the highest notch. Every part was well ttken and well sup ported. The Waite Comedy company would entertain any kind of an audience, and it is but feeble pyiise to say that everyone last night was delighted. They certainly have made an enviablo record as a fan making troupe, as reports from other cities where they have played speak in the highest terms of plays and players. The band and orchestra remain almost the same as last year, which is a guarantee that our citizens will have a week's oppor tunity of treating themselves to mu-iic in the higher branches. There is no finer band on tbo road to-day than Waite's Premium band. The above company will appear all next week at Armory Opera House, com mencing Monday evening, Oct. 30th, in the laughable comedy "Mazie, the romp." Prices 10, 20 and 30 cents. The Markets.

Four of the men who tortured and robbed old Mrs. Logan, in her home near Cora opolis on Wednesday of last week, were arrested in Pittsburg; Thursday, and strange to say, one of themS.S a stenographer who held a good position, and he claims that he was under the mesmeric influence of another man and was nit responsible for his actions. The arrested men are Grant Evans, John Shields, Bert Shoemak er and Samuel Laughlin. Geo. 11. Harvey, the fifth man was arrested next day, when confronted with the circumstances sur rounding the affair, as detailed in the con fessions of the others to the crime, he broke down and admitted his guilt. He told substantially the same story as the others. He had stolen, he said, to get b:ead for his delicate yonng wife and two distressed looking children, the oldest of which is just three years old. Out of his share of the stolen money he had paid his rent and the bills of his butcher, grocer a..d coal man. He had but little money left.

When the four Hungarians were called for trial before Judge Slagle, at Pittsburg, last week, for the Wilmerding murder, an Irish juror was among those called. "Juror look upon the prisoner," said the clerk in an impressive tone. The juror adjusted his glasses and gazed intently into the face of each in turn. "Have you formed an opinion as to thsir guilt or innocencef" asked District Attor ney Clarence Burleigh. "I have, sor," replied the juror. "Would that opinion prevent you from returning a verdict in accordanoe with the law and evidence?'" asked Judge Slagle. "Indade it would your honor," replied the candid j-.ror. "What's thatT'' asked Judge Slagle sharply, as he thought the juror was try ing to evade his doty. "Fy did 3 C UJI UIO to luk atthim. then?' said the juror who was alarmed at the court's tone, "sure, their faces wud hang ivery mother's son av tbiin." HE was challenged for cause by the de fence, and the challenge was sustained. AVashington, Pa , was the scene of a murder late Saturday night. S. W. Dorsey, the wealthiest colored man in the town WA* waylaid, killed and robbed on his way home. He was met by two men near his home who shot him through the head, robbed him, and then ran away. Aaron Glenn of Lawrence county, near the Slipperyrock twp. line, became de mented some daj S ago and his relatives intend sending him to Dixmont. He was a member of the "Roundhead" regiment. A young man named George Slocum, aged 18, of Tidioute, lost the sigkt of ons eye while hunting woodcock a few days ago. He was hunting in company with Harry McDonald. Slocum flushed a bird, and after it passed him McDonald shot it, but one of the shot struck a twig, changing its course and it struck Slocum in the eye, penetrating the eyeball. The catch of fish is so heavy now that the Erie Fish CO was compelled to have all its twine taken ont of the lake one day last week in order to give them time to catch up and get rid of the fish which they had on the floors. Wednesday morning the COMPANY had eighty tons of fish on the flooi-J and A boat brought thirty tons over from O'anada. It will take several days to _'et ready for fishing again. The M. E. minister at McKeesport creat ed a sensation, there last Sunday, by criticising Prof. P. A. Shanor, principal of the public schools, for attending Barijum & Dailey'S circus; and when aiked to explain said: I said it pained me greatly to know that our educators, those who come in contact with oir children, who go to a circus show. I said we, as citizens, were paying $I;800 a year for services as a super intendent ot our schools to a man who was patronizing a thing I thought was practic ing vice, sin and immorality. It was a Methodist sermon, delivered by a Mstho dist preacher to a Methodist congregation —A denomination that is opposed to that sort of thing. I spoke in all kindness, but in speaking as I did. I felt it was a duty I owed my children and my people. I shall not hesitate to do it again, if necessary. That circus came here on Sunday morning and work was carried on all day and hundreds of people were attracted by it, among them a host of children. The men were paid on Sunday — it was anything but a day of rest. It is not right that our Sabbath should be so desecrated — they are not the right kind of people to patronize who so desecrate it, B. £ B. Making the Dollars Go as lar as possible. That's what we're all thinking about these times—when dollars are so Bcarce and the wants and needs of the family great as ever.

We have set the whole country agog on prices and on the quality of onr goods. Dealers predicted that we would put out an :inferior ,article, because we would be unable to sell our standard goods at such ruinously low prices. Howsver, we did nothing of the kind. We put out our regular standard productions only, and sold them at just exactly the low prices we promised the trade. TUB "CARD" DID IT ALL. It has done for Butler people what has never yet been done for any other com munity in this great country. The|"card s" fame is spreading far and wide. We are receiving words of inquiry and congratula tions from all parts of the United States. We have originated an idea that will prove a benefactor to thousands of consumers in these hard times. The "card" has cheap ened the cost to the consumers without lowering the price of the raw material. The middleman's profit has been eliminated. We sell direct to the consumer at manu facturer's wholesale prices as soon as you have "a card." THE "CARD" IS FRBB. Don't delay. Join the throng. Come in out of the cold. BCY.

RUPTURE Cannot always be cured, but a properly fitting Truss will do more toward curing you than any thing else. A small rupture is more dangerous than a large one but is more readily held in place. Quite a number of persons who have been fitted by us have been entirely cured, but this is not al ways the case. The sooner we have them visit us after finding they are ruptured the more hope of a complete cure. We make a specialty of Trusses for both ladies and gentlemen, and give di rections for private measurement for the former. Al! cases consid ered strictly private. Buying Trusses by mail from some person who says he can cure you is on a paralell with the number of cures there are for consumption. If you have had trouble in being fitted elesewhere let us try what we can do for you. C. I», BOYD, Pharmacist, Diamond Block, - Butler, Pa.
