NOTES.
The proposition of Prof. John Bassett
Moore for the creation of an interna
tional executive, to enforce the decrees
of international law and the mandates
of international courts, strikes the con
servative world as unpractical and radi
cal. Yet it is the necessary part of any
plan to substitute the rational adjudi
cation of international differences for
the blind and medieval ordeal of war.
Letters of administration on the
estate of Tillie Hammil have been
granted to John Hammil of Chicora
Henry Cromling has been appointed
constable of Petrolia, vice Charles
Cromling, his son, who resigned. The
son was appointed and after his father
had been elected and declined to serve,
the son being appointed on the father's
petition, and the father now being ap
pointed on the son's petition.
Letters of administration on the
estate of the Harry B. Fleming late of
Buffalo twp , have been granted to
James W. Fleming.
Josiah C. Kiskaddon has been sworn
in as deputy to Treasurer Alexander.
The jury in the Hargis-Callahan trial
returned a verdict of not guilty after
being out 22 minutes. The case was
one of the most stubbornly contested a
Kentucky court has had for years. The
men were charged with the murder of
J B. Marcum. In May 1903, Marcum
was shot in the back and killed in the
Jackson court-house. Cartis Jett and
"Tom" White were convicted and given
life terms for the murder. Jett, after
his conviction confessed that he shot
Marcum and that his act was inspired
by Callahan and Judge Hargls. On u
witi. however, he repudiated
the confession and said he ajone was
responsible. The acquittal followed
largely on this repudiation.
The Pittsburg measure is filled to
overflowing with the Hartie case, yet
on trial. Various clergymen have pro
tested against the disclosures in the
scandalnm magnatnm and laid the
responsibilty about equally on the
parties, the legal profession and the
press. This was followed by the Court
reading the riot act to the counsel in
that case for undue energy in trying
the case before the public throngh the
news columns.
The defense in the case of Harry K
Thaw of Pittsburg, in ja'l in New York
for murder, made an unexpected move
when a writ of prohibition was secured
from Justice Blanchard in the supreme
court restraining the district attorney
and the July grand jury from taking
further evidence under oath against the
prisoner. The order to show cause why
the writ should not be continued was
made returnable tomorrow. At that
time the district attorney's office will
request an adjournment of the matter
because of the absence from the city of
the Dietrict Attorney Jerome

Town Council.
At Tuesday evenings meeting of
Town Conncil the proj>oeition to elect a
paving inspector did not go through,
council deciding that the member of the
paving committee from each ward
should act- Conncil also turned down
a proposition to purchase a steam roller
on short notice.
Citizens of E. Pearl St. l>etvv<*t*ii Mc-
Kean mid Elm asked that the width of
the paving for that portion be 38 feet
instead ofßo, in order to sive shrule
tress.
A i>etition was presented asking
Conncil to improve that portion of Main
Sr. from the end of the paving to the
