Judge Osborn, of the Elkhart circuit, last week's Laportc Herald says, denounces all brow-beating by the lawyers of a witness under crossexamination, urging that a witness is entitled to protection by the court in his inherent right of being treated as a gentleman. Why should not tbia same rale apply to trial jurors, who are now imprisoned like so many convict?, under oath and bailiftV keeping, not to talk with other persons than a fellow juror, nor to eat or rest till all 12 have agreed upon a verdict? We say jurors who are fit to try a case are gentlemen who should be trusted to adjourn and meet again at their discretion and converse with whom they choose on any subject, but o coarse with care to render -a verdict as the law and evidence require. If a majority coul.l make a valid verdict, as- we claim the law should authorize, adjournment would be seldom necessary till the verdict ta returned.

from forced sale from the payment of debts other than taxes and purchase money. It cannot be soldi without the consent of the wife, nor mortgaged by either or both, except for purchase money or improvement thereon, nor can in that state wages for personal services be garnisheed. In Texas the head of any family without a homestead can acquire oat of any of the unoccupied public domain 160 acres of land, upon condition of selecting and occupying the tract as a residence for three years' time, and paying the office fees as fixed by law, which usually amounts to about fifteen dollars. Single men of 18 years and upwards can acquire 80 acres upon similar terms.

etors of illicit whiskey distilleries in the mountains concluded that he must die or they must go out of business. They chose the former

alternative. About twenty of them got some oysters, crackers, and other food for a meal, took along plenty of whiskey, and camped on a road which they knew Davis would

take that night. Concealing themselves behind a pile of Iocs, and

laying out their rifles in readiness, they diverted themselves with eating and drinking until Davis came

along. Then they riddled his body

The issue this year is not for or against prohibition, for that question is not before the people and cannot be this campaign. What is to be decided this year is whether

or not the people are to be permit

ted to settle an important question for themselves. Not how they shall vote on prohibition, but whether they shall be allowed to vote at all or not. It is a question involving the principle of self-government. Itickmoml Falladium.

The practice in Pennsylvania eoal mines is to leave pillars of coal in position to support the roof until the rest of the level has been taken out. Then the pillars are Kometimes removed, but it is a dangerous operation even when strong and numerous timbers are inserted. It is in this part of the work that most of t lie causuali ties of the mints occur. "Robbing the pillars" is the term used in describing the careless removal of eoal from these supports, and the miners continue the practice because it is an easy way to get the coal.

AMMOSIA IK PuLMONABY DI

SEASES. At the meeting of the

Royal Belgian Academy of Medi

cine, April $U, lool, M. Melsens

presented a memoir on the therapeutic applications of ammonia, its

salts or its complex compounds, re

questing that a committee be appointed to examine into the value of his conclusions relative to this question. M. Melsens' communica

tion discusses the applicability of

ammonia and its compounds to diseases of the respiratory organs. He concluded, from the fact that phthisical patients are benefitted by inhaling the vapors of carbonate of ammonia emanating from stables,

that the continuous and moderate

inhalation of that salt would be ef

ficacious in other pulmonary affections. He accordingly made the

experiment upon himself during an

attack of bronchitis, by wearing in

a bag attached to Ins shirt several pieces of ammonia carbonate. Having been completely cured in a few days by this treatment, he subsequently employed it in his practice, with uniform results. He also applies the remedy directly to the re

spiratory passage, by means of

spray, with equal success.

Senator Voorhees, of Indiana, has been taking lemon juice and warm water three times a day for the gout. This regular indulgence in so nn-Democratic a drink may possibly account for his recent drifting from the free trade faith of the Bourbons. There is very little Democracy in lemon juice and warm water. Cleveland Leader. "President" Taylor, of the Mormon church, recently married bis twenty-eighth wife a Massachusetts widow. In four days she had raised such disturbances with

the other wives, and proved herself

to be so unsusceptible to discipline, that the "President" had to pension her and send her to San Francisco.

The conversion ot Gen. Abe Buford, during the recent religious revival in Louisville, Ky., caused a great deal of surprise throughout that region. Another notable convert was Warren Viley. Between Buford and Viley there had long been a bitter fend, and they never met without arousing expectations of bloodshed. They came togeth

"No wonder," exclaims a New York writer, "that woman can stand pain better than men when it is considered to what agony she will subject herself to satisfy the tyrant who sets the fashions. From the sole of her foot to the crown of her bead she is, in fact, a self-torturer. Her boots pinch her toes till the pain is excruciating; her garters are so tightly clasped that they too often produce varicose veins ; her corset is so tightly laced that intense discomfort ensues, the vital organs being actually cramped and pushed out of place ; the skin of the chest is anointed with preparations which draw and tighten it ; her ears are sore by reason of their piercing ; her nose, possibly, aches from the application of the little machine aforementioned : her cheeks arc ir-

A few days ago the widow of Beble full dangerously ill at Neilsville, the nearest village to the place where he had been shot, and, in expectation of death, she confessed that she was the slayer. He had compelled her to dress as a man and work with him in the woods. Worn out by the heavy labor, and driven desperate by his cruelty, she murdered him. Then she hurried home, put on her own clothing, and nobody identified, her as the fellow who had been her husband's assistant.
