TIIK Alabama claims court had in tended to get another year's extension from congress in December , in order to draw fat. salaries ; but the cutting down of the horde of attorneys and clerks has changed the programme. TUB St. Paul P.ot.ccr Press says "that ex-Governor Morton , of Nebraska , stales that over 700,003 trees have boon planted by human hands in that state. " This is a mistake. Mr. Morton said 700,000,000 , and ho ia good authority on this matter. WOMAN suffrage .is making headway , slowly but surely. Women who want to1 vote can do it either in Wyoming or the city of Madras , India , woman suH'rago liaving.just been decreed in the latter place by the municipal authorities.

Tim address at the state fair of Mnino was delivered by Mr. lilaino , who made u hit in liis opening sentence : "I have never had any doubt that , next to a first- class horse race , thu most essential re quirement of an. agricultural fair is a live-minute address by a man who knows nothing about farming. " Tin : Montreal authorities are deter mined to carry out the health laws and propose to take whatever steps are neces sary to make the French Canadians sub mit to vaccination.

There is Jiltlo or no hope of hunnoni/ing the vari- mis ulumonts. While this is suvantiign- oua In thu republicans , thu republicans should not overlook the fact thnt it is highly Important to nominate strong Ucjcot.

A. TcavCHtjr on The rnlptifi < of Matt Zimmerman on a writ of habeas corpus has justly excited Kurprfcc and indignation throughout thu stale. A convicted murderer , tinder sen tence of death , lui" been set at liberty by it petty cnmmisfiioiior who hns about the same jurisdiction in offenses against the laws of HID United States as a justice of the peace exercises under our stain laws. The action of C'ommlswlonor Savillo Is without a parallel in the annals of criminal practice. Such a high-handed proceeding has never been known to or cur before in this country , and is not likely ever to occur again. Them can be but one con clusion with regard to the release of Zimmerman. The convicted assassin and horMj-thiof nevi r would have escaped the gallows had then ; not been a deep-laid conspiracy on the part of his friends and his iiltnrnny. The commissioner who re leased him on nominal ball must either eonfe.HH to be.ing a fool or a knove. The report that ho acted in the . capacity of supreme judge wlnle ho was drunk , will hardly relieve him/rom the. odium anil respon sibility. A man with a thimbleful of bruin.i , unless \w \ was ImaMly drunk , would have known that he had no au thority to aet in Mich cases. The ofllcors who assisted in this disreputable perform ance are equally culpable. They know enough law to know that a United States commissioner has no jurisdiction to re.- lease convicted state criminals , much lexs a condemned murderer. Such law lessness by men who are charged with apprehending criminals is a powerfn incentive for mob violence and lynch law , wherever and whenever a frightful murder is committed. Attorney-General Loose deserves great credit for the promptness , energy and fearlessness which he has exhibited in demand ing the disbarment of Attorney i'urr who engineered this disreputable job. No reputable attorney would resort to such means for liberating a client who had been twice convicted of a premedi tated murder. There is a professional code among the attorneys which forbids all resource to corrupt and dishonest methods whereby the ends of justice will be. defeated. The obligation of the law yer towards his client does not warrant a criminal conspira-.v in his behalf. It ends-with the legitimate effort to procure him a fair trial by an impartial jury , acting in aeeordam-e with the laws of the stale. Ttio Xallouiil Kulo y on Grant. A great many people consider Iloscoo Conkling as the onl. > man who should be considered as the proper orator to deliver the national eulogy upon ( Jen. Grant. While it is trtip that Colliding is one of the most polished of American orators , and that his eulogy ofGrunt at the Chicago convention in 188D will ever bo ranked among the American classics of oratory , yet there tire other men wlw perhaps could pay as glowing tributes to the memory of Grant ami who would be just as much entitled to thatdi.stinguishod honor as TCoscoc Conkling. General Sherman , for instance , could no doubt deliver an address that would in every wny be regarded as worthy of the occa sion. His recent admirable address on ( irnntbeforu the veterans at the reunion in Chicago has impressed many of his auditors , as well as a large number of those who have read the speech in the newspapers' , with this idea. There has since been considerable pressure brought to bear on General Sherman to accept the h'onor of delivering before congress the oration on the public lit'eand services of Goncral , Grant. The Now York Trib une says that there is a wide-spread feeling among the soldiers that "Old Tccumscih" is bettejr lilted for the. task of eulogizing their dead comrade and com mander than a civilian would be , what ever relations ho may have sustained to General Grant. A well-known publicist is quoted in the Tribune as saying : "The man who is selected to deliver the oration on General Grant should bo one whose position is as broad as the country itself. It is no disparagement of Mr. Conkling to say that he has never readied that height and thnt ho was-never more than the groafc leader of a great faction , because ( he fact , is that you can count on the fingers of your two handy , men. who huvo In twenty years risen to thnt envi- abla plane. Since his retirement to pri vate life , Senator Conkling has not even justified ( lie judgment that at one-time caused him to be selected and conllrmud as justice of'the supreme court of the United States. " A ri.AN has been devised in Chicago by a gang of card-sharps to systematically rob wealthy Americans who are How re siding in Canada and enjoying the for tunes which they have made in the bank- wrecking , embezzling and defalcation business. 11 Is known that these honest self-exiled Americans are lonely and suf fer for the lack of amusement. Thu Chicago card-sharps propose to go to Canada and amusu them at cards.and at the same time make them pay hand somely for the amusement. They recent ly sent an agent to Canada to hunt up the towns which had the honor of containing any decamping cashier or faitlilts.-i broker from this bldo to obtain till Ihu knowledge possible bonring on the habits and past history of the men and to find out the sum of any one defalcation an well as the reputed wealth of the de faulter and whuthor or not he was sus ceptible to any of thu gaming excite ments. This work was done to a nicely , and the accurate Information contained in the report puts the gamblers in pos- sion of much usutul knowledge , The parly is now prepared to invade the Do minion and pluck the game in nrllstto style , This enterprise is truly character istic of Chicago , and if successfully car ried out it will no doubt rloli lyre ward the gentlemen engaged in it , Mil.

Mr. Furay Is a natural-born humorist , and we advise him to take ( lie lecture field with Hill Nyc and Mark Twain. Mr. Ftirnycan bo funny even at a funeral. His vein of humor How. * to Ihu surface with a force equal to that of the natural gas veins at. PitHburg. Hh remarks , ubnut the Kiirutim strentj pavement are very facetious. The filling of the. joints between the granite blocks w.is an ex periment in Omaha , hut it is a common practice in laying the bu t granltti pave ments In some of the largo oastucn'e.ities. . The block In front of the Court house , which has been laid in this manner , is pronounced by all odds lliij bd'it soution of pavement in Omaha , and it is only to be regretted that the whole street wai not put down in the same way. IT is very fortunate for Omaha that the desperate effort to prevent the erection of the clly hall under the pretense of op position to the Myers plan has failed .so far. There is something moro involved for the immediate future of Omaha in tills proposed improvement , than the mere delay of constructing' a tire-proof public building. It is almost certain that the defeat of the city hall project would delay and possibly prevent the erection of a du/iuii blocks and " large business buildings which are contemplated , for upper Farnam , and Seventeenth and Eighteenth streets during the coining year. These buildings would involve a permanent investment in brie.k and mortnr of moro than half a million del lars. In the boom of 188' ' ! this will lie no inconsiderable item. If these improve- mentii on upper Parnnin go right ahead they will stimulate heavy building in other parts of the ct.v. : _ If they are held back two or three years it will be a damper upon the growth of Omaha in every direction. 1'm : Denver Arci03 intimates that there is good reason to.suspect that the quar- antluureguhilionHof Colorado , New Mexico ice and Wyoming are being made the cover for wicked speculation. These quarantine laws place it within the pow er of the big cattlemen to bear the price of Texas and other entile , and thuro is a great deal of human nature about tin : cattle kingd. Somu fairer tribunal than the cattlemen should be clothed with Ihu- authority to say what cattle may or may not bo brought across the boundary lines between staled and territories. "It is all right , " says Iho Afcww , "to protect , our herds ag.iinst contagious diseases , but it is all wrong to turn the quarantine lair into an engine for the robbery of ouUid ) breeders who seek a market , for their cat tle in this region. " Mn. Cr.Aitiv o.v's latest , political mani festo is n bombastic prospectus for the Dos Moincs Hci/ixtrr. According to Chirk- son , "tho eyes of th % political world are upon the ropuhljcan : of Iowa this your , ami our party friend. ? in othi-r Htntiw ex- poet an ohl-timn republican victory in Io\va thi.s fall. " Mr. Cl-.u'k-ion is in tin "habit'of magnifying things lie forgoU that the eye.s of thy political world are riveted upon Now Vork , which 'decided the presidential battle of 1331 , and will probably decide it again in IS1 ? . ' . .

MAIISIIAT , C'uMMixoa is to be commend ed in his effort to have the police neatly uniformed. He insists that the proceeds of the policemen's ball , netting § 18 to the man , ought to be invested in uni forms. We think the. people who con tributed to the bail will approve of this method of investing the funds. We cer tainly can se.e no reason why any police man should bo dissatisfied. It * the police were ordered to buy uniforms they would havolo take the money out of their own pockets. , . , . , . Tm'.ur. is such a thing as being lee fractious in opposing any scheme of pub lic improvement , unless it is clearly es tablished that corrupt methods have been resorted to by the supporters of-the measure. The minority in the council who have opposed and obstructed llm proposed erection of a city hall on Far- nam street at every step have by this time exhausted all honorable means of warfare. In fact some of Ihom have already gene further than common de cency would justify. Tin : grceubiickcra of Massachusetts have nominated a ticket. Their - platform form is a cra/.y quill made up of all sorts of impractical notions , They conden n civil service reform as an attempt to en ate an aristocracy of ofllcc-iiohlcrs , and favor nnivur.sal suffrage , whatever that miy : mean , and a re-enactment of a secret-ballot law. A UOCTOU of Saybrook , Illinois , killed a brother physician by shooting him through the heart. The other physicians unanimously agree that the method of killing iu this case was decidedly un- professional.

HOW POCKETS ARE PICKED. The Modus Operand ! of the Hxpcrr , Cut-parse "IVorklnjj a Crowd. " Philadelphia News : The general pub- lie , as a rule , do not know how an expert thief can remove a purse from a man's pocket. This is how it. is done : When u mob of pickpockets start out. to "work a crowd" on a train they break into twos. The operator on leather 'fans his intended victim. ' This It ) plain Eng lish means he ascertains the location of the intended viclim'H money. He guts alongside of the man whose pocket is to bu picked : and with rapid movement ho desirously passes his fingers lightly over every pocket. His touch i.s .so delicate that it enables him to locate the 'boodle,1 and ascertain its character , whether a roll , a pniv-o , or a pocket-book. The .surging of the crowd , especially on a crowdud.railroad train , accounts to the unsuspicious traveler for the occasional josliiii" ; which he receives. ' It. is found that thu most , common receptacle for the poekot-book is the left trousers pocket , iront. When the victim is selected ono of the brace of thieves plants himself Mpniroly in front of him , while the other crowds up behind him on the right side. The operator in front , under the cover of a newspaper or coat thrown over the arm , feels llu pocket ; and , if the victim is a still-necked or straight- backed man in . a standing position , hi ; Hnds the lip.s'of the pocket drawn close together. In this ease it is danger ous to attempt the insertion of the hand. A very low-toned clearing of the throat , followed by a guttural""rouse , " is the .signal for his "pal" to exert u general pressure upon the victim's right , i shoulder. This i.s so gradually extended that the traveler yields to the pressure without knowing it. and without changing the position of his fuel. This throws the lip.s of the pocket open for Iho operator in front , who does not attempt to insert his hand and attempt to draw the pockotout , lint works on the lining. Ho draws it out an eighth of an inch at a time with out inserting his lingers more than half way. .Should thi.s process of drawing the contents of thu pocket to its mouth bo fult.by Iho victim , another low clearing of the throat gives the sign to tl c confed erate and the game IK dropped. Jf the vic tim's suspicions are not. aroused the pick- poukot keeps at his work of drawing the lining out until the. roll of bills , the pursuer or pocket-book is within reach ot thu dolt lingers. It i.s then grasped between the index and middle lingers and gently drawn out. The successful commotion of Ihu bb is indicated by a gen tic chirrup , like the chirp of a canary , and the prec ious pair separate from their victim to ply iho samu tricks on thu next onu.

[ Correspond ence of the HKM. ] Some two or more years ago , a number i [ burglaries and a case of arson occurred in this village. There were also rumor' ! of eounterfuilers being iu our neighborhood. This Mini- mer the mailer was placed in the hands of Sliurid' Jordan and his deputy , ( 'corgo Lewis , who have been working up the case. La t .I'riday , Lewis heard Ilmt Clmrles I.ind.sey , one of the parties sits- pcctod , was in Columbus , and on Salnr- doy morning , armed with a . wan-ant for his arrest , he started for that place. Llndsey was found and arrested by Lowis.and when the train leftfor Albion , he with his prisoner , we.ro on board. Shortly after leaving St. Edward , the. prisoner wanted to go to the water-closet. .Lewis permitted him to go. but watched him closely. Scarcely had the door of the wator-closet closed , whe.n the crash of glass was heard , and Lewis started for thu door. The prisoner hud jumped through the window while the train was going at. the rate of lo to 18 miles per hour. Our plucky deputy gave a yell and also jumped oil'the. train. I'lio-pris oner had about ( X ) rods the start , making tracks for St. Edward. Lewis followed , shouting to the citizens to slop the man , but iu the surprise and con fusion of the moment no one seemed to know what lo do , and the prNonur dashed through the town and made for Heaver Creek" , into which he. .jumped. Lewis was not far behind , and into the creek he ulso wont. The water was breast high. On gutting out. on the other .side , Iho prisoner was not to bo seen , but. Lewis , witli his revolver in hand , which hu had held above his head while fording the. creek , commenced a thorough search , and .shortly after found Ihu prisoner lying Hal on his bauk in the brush. In the meantime the people of St. Edward had caught on Iho racket , ami started for the Heaver , some on horseback , some in wagons and others on foot. When they arrived at the place they found Lewis in possession of the prisoner , whom ho had now placed in irons. The conductor of the train , as soon as he heard of the escape of the prisoner , ordered the train to be backed to St. Edward , and shortly after arriving at the depot , Lewis with his prisoner ar rived , both soaking wet. On arriving in Albion , Limlsuy was placed in jail , and yesterday gave important information implicating others.
