Allan T. Williams, who was con
vited of embezzling county funds while
county treasurer at Bayfield, Wis., was
one of the best known characters In
the Badger state. He was editor of
one of the first papers printed in Wash
burn, the Bee. In 1887 he was elected
county treasurer, and held that office
until February, f&J. Curing* this
period he held the offices of deputy
county clerk, justice of the peace, di
ffir J tM^U^tSmpany, ptfi
mill Men’s union, man
ager and drum major of the Bayfield
cornet band, manager of the Harbor
City base ball club, and manager of
the opera house. He was commonly
known as the “Pooh Bah” of Bayfield
county. He was what is known as a
"good fellow” and that was the cause
of his down-fall. There’s something
In being too good a fellow.
The constitution of Maryland pro
vides “that in all criminal prosecutions
every man hath a right ... to a
speedy trial by an impartial jury."
But some years since the legislature
passed an act providing that in cases
of vagrancy the accused might be com
mitted to the workhouse, by a magis
trate, for one year or less, without
trial by jury." A man thus committed
was brought before Judge Yellot on
writ of habeas corpus, and he was
promptly discharged, on the ground
that the act under which he had been
committed was unconsUtutional. The
case was appealed by the county, and
the Court of Appeals (the Supreme
Court of Maryland) sustained the stat
ute on the ground that (he constitution
of Maryland must be Interpreted in
harmony with the practice under the
unwritten constitution of England, in
■which country the guarantee of trial
by jury is not held to extend to such
cases. Reinforced by this decision,
the magistrates of Maryland continued
to commit to the workhouse, without
jury trial, such vagrants as were
brought before them; and Judge Yellott
as promptly discharged every man
thus deprived of his liberty who was
brought before him on writ of habeas
corpus; and this, notwithstanding the
fact that case after case was taken to
the Court of Appeals, and always with
the same result, namely, that the “law”
was sustained. But the venerable
Judge Yellott treated it as void until
bis retirement from the bench on ac
count of the infirmities of old age. And
we all say honor to such a judge.
The church social is a serious thing
for young men of limited means in all
sections of America, but in Kentucky,
Tennessee and West Virginia it is pos

the kind is held in the rural regions
that at least one man does not give up
his life—not to religion, but to one or
another of the thousand feuds of that
section.

shots at us from a distance, some of
which came within six feet of us. The
following morning, July 0, they fired
two shots at the wagon in which we
were sleeping. Roth shots came close.
This mob of men has been operating
here for several years, and has intimi
dated and driven out a number of set

to sell their stock and land at a sacri

counties in the state, soliciting contri

Trouble In a Kamllv*
B. F. Warner, a resident of Blair,
was found about daylight Sunday
morning not far from his home with
his throat cut from ear to ear. He had
some trouble with his family Saturday

DUTIES OF CITIZENSHIP.
CHRISTIAN ENDEAVORERS DISCUSS
THE SUBJECT IN BOSTON.
STIRRING SPEECHES MADE.
AH of the Meeting* Devote tlie Morning
of the Fourth Day of the Great Con
vention to That Subject — Ad
dresses by Congressman Morse
and Other Well Known
Gentlemen.
Uoston, July 15.—The fourth day of
the great Christian Endeavor confer
ence, was devoted to “Good Citizen
ship.*’ At all of the meetings of the
forenoon the reports, addresses, pre
sentations and songs tended toward
the subject, and leading speakers of
the day were men whose fame was
the result of their efforts for municipal
and state reform. These meetings
followed morning prayer meetings in
a score of churches at 6:20 o’clock and
impromptu meetings were held on the
streets.
Mechanics’ hall was the great ob
jective point of the crowds. An hour
before the doors were opened, several
thousand persons were singing En
deavor songs on the sidewalks outside.
The announcement that Neal Dow,
the apostle of temperance, would be
introduced from the platform, at
tracted many to that meeting place,
but all were disappointed, for he was
unable to be present. At this meeting
also Hishop Alexander Walters of Jer
sey City spoke of the responsibility of
the Afro-American race in American
citizenship, and Congressman Elijah
Morse of Massachusetts aroused great
enthusiasm.
At all of the morning meetings the
presentation of a banner to the union
making the best record in the work of
promoting citizenship was a feature of
the exercises. In both tents, under the
program title, “Voices from North
America,” six minute reports on civic
improvements were made by delegates
representing all parts of the country.
Congressman .Morse quoted from
Washington's farewell address and de
clared that the sentiments should be
followed by all citizens. He advocated
sacred religious regard for Sunday and
declared that the saloon was one of the
worst enemies of good citizenship, but
that there was a mighty movement
against it.. He advocated arbitra
tion of all international disputes and
concluded: "Hut, you say, what would
you.put into a young person's charac
ter if you could have your say about
it? I would put in first total absti
nence from strong drink. Yes, and I
would go further than that if I could
have my say, I would put fn total ah
S^'nence from tobacco. Tobacco is a
dirty, vile, poisonous narcotic. It de
grades any man who uses it. He may
be a good tqan with it, but a better
man without It. It create^ an unnat- j
ural appetite that water will not sat- !
isfy and leads to drink. With it ypu
wilj not be so likely to succeed in life,
and more liable to become a drunkard.
Is that all? Oh, no; if 1 had my say,
I would put you on the Lord Jesus
Christ. If 1 had a voice that would
drown Niagara I would say to every
young man and the young woman, in
the language of the book, ‘Kemernber
now thy Creator in the days of thy
youth.’ I have seen young people
who were fearful that they would
not be appreciated. I tell you, young
man or young woman, you couldn’t
make a greater mistake than that.
The world will size you up about right,
and you will pass for about what you
are. In this favored land of ours, in
dustry, ability and virture carry in
their hand the sure prestige of victory
and success. Am I addressing persons
of pbscure parentage and humble
birth? I am not here to say that it is
not a good thing to be born well, be
cause the commandment has a prom
ise appended to it. ‘1 will show mercy
to thousands of them that love me and
keep my commandments.’ or as the
margin reads, 'to a thousand genera
tions.’ Hut I am here to say, young
man or young woman, I tell you that
you will pass for about what you are.
The world will size you up about right.
If you drink and smoke and go with
bad company you won’t amount to
anything. Good character, industry,
ability and application are of more
consequence to success than family
birth or blood.”

A DEADLY DUEL.
Brother*-Ill-Law Kill Each Other in Pres
ence of Wife and Sister.
AMoRr, Miss., July 15. — Denton
O’Dell, a prominent young merchant
of Chulahama, Miss., and Miss Grace
Jeffries, the society belle of the town,
were married just a week ago. Since
then O'Dell and his bride have been
making their home with the bride’s
mother.
Thursday Mrs. Jeffries left for an
extended visit to relatives in an ad
joining county. Before going she
called in her son-in-law and daughter
and showing them a little tin trunk
wherein she kept her land deeds and
other valuables, cautioned them not
to let it be removed from the house.
Paul Jeffries, Mrs. Jeffries' 23-year
old son, also left, ostensibly on a fish
ing excursion, but later he returned,
entered the house and secured posses
sion of the trunk. He had carried it
out when he was met by his sister,
Mrs. O’Dell, who remonstrated with
him. A quarrel followed. O’Dell
then appeared on the scene and his
young wife appealed to him. As he
laid hands on the trunk, young Jef
fries drew a revolver and shot him
down.
After O'Dell had fallen and as he lay
on the ground, he pulled his pistol and
fired six shots into Jeffries’ body.
O’Dell lived a few minutes, while Jef
fries survived several hours.
The young bride witnessed the
deadly duel.
