Whether postoffices throughout the state which have been - getting the henefit of better postal service through the delivery of the mail by the electrie cars ar to continue to receive such ap, ed service depends en-. tirely upon the terms which can be ‘arranged between the postoffice de- partment and the Connecticut com- pany. In this method of handling the mail as on the railroads the govern- ment has been increasing its business and requirements without increase of compensation and the situation has gotten to the point where the Con- iecticut company is ready to throw up its job, relieve itself of the respon- sibility of carrying the mails and {m- pose ‘upon the department the estab- iishment of some other means . of prompt delivery or depend upon fewer mails -a- day. The matter is one which deserves a falr adjustment. Public convenience hangs in the balance. There are many localities throughout the state where the trolleys are the quickest and best means of mail delivery between of- fices and the fact that such a system is in operation is one of the best in- djcations thereof and on the other hand it is but fair that transportgtion companies should receive a proper compensation. With increase of bus- iness, and increased requirements there should be increased pay within a rea- sonable limit. The contention is iden- tical with the railroad, but the latter i3 not in the position of the trolleys in being able to throw up its hands and refuse the service. The public demands efficient mail service, but it does not favor monopolistic powers to prevent fair compensation, MUST BE A GOOD YACHT. The first two brushes between two. of the yachts which are aspiring rol;l the honor of defending America's cup give promise of some interesting trial races later in the season even though the qualities of the Defiance, have not as yet been given a tryout. That the rubber should be marred by the falling overboard of two of the Van- itie's crew was unfortunate. There was much in each of the previous races over which the designers had reason to be proud. Each has won an out and out victory and while with a fluky wind the Vanitic was able to cross tha line the first day with a lead of over sixteen minutes, under_different sailing conditions this was changed to a victory by eleven seconds for the Resolute on the second day. These tuning up contests are bound to bring out the best that there is in American yacht construction. It has Deen shown already that this coun- try is not dependent entirely upon one designer and builder even though the Herreshoff boat may eventually get the honor of being the defender.. There 1s evidence of the keenest kind of com- petition. The Cochran yacht is not to be laid aside without due consideration and its merits are in for .a careful study. If the Deflance displays the same high grade of excellence as its competitors it is going to be no easy task for the judges, while the ques- tion of seamanship is at the same time being taken into account. The start which the trials have received cannot fail to arousc enthusiasm over the coming prospects even among the disinterested. Early evidence that the yacht to meet the Shamrock IV must be a good one has been presented. EDITORIAL NOTES. Yale has captured Harvard's goat. All they need now is the crimson stride.

" l FAMOUS TRIALS I TRIAL OF MRS. MAYBRICK. No trial of a woman attracted more attention in the nineteenth century [than that of. Mrs. Florence Maybrick, the American girl who was accused of having poisoned her English hus- band. Mrs. Maybrick was born in Mobile, Ala, on Sept. 3, 1862, and at the age of 13 she married James May- brick on July 27, 1881, at St. James' | church; Piccadilly, London. Return- | ing to America, they made their home at Norfolk, Va. For business reasoas they later’ settled in the suburbs of ! Liverpool, England. Then came the | tragic death of the husband and the accusation against his wife. The indictment ,against Mrs. May- brick was as follow: “That James Maybrick, on the 11:h of May, 1889, in the township of Gar: ston, died from the effects of an ir- ritant poison supposed to have beem administered to him by Florence May- brick.” “Mrs. Maybrick was arrested on suspicion the following day by the superintendent of police. At the time she was confined to her bed. It was generally understood that the relation ‘of the :Maybricks was somewhat strained, but Mrs. -Maybrick always {affirmed that it had been patched up before her husband's death for the children's sake, there being @ son and daughter. ,On Saturday, May 18, a hearing was Held in the bedroom of Mrs. Maybrick. Superintendent Bryning made the charge against the wife, and she was hurried off to Walton jail, in the sub- urbs of Liverpool, not being allowed the privilege of bidding goddbye to her mother. Here she was shown to & cell, where remained three, da when her lawyer.arranged that she should have a modest room on the payment of $1.25 a week. The coroner's jury at the inquest made the charge “that the said Flor- ence Elizabeth- Maybrick did willfully, feloniously and of malicious aforc- thought Kkill and murder the said James Maybrick.” The medical spec- ialists disagreed as to the poisoning of Mr. Maybrick. Dr. Humphreys as- serting that no arsenic had been found by the analyst in the stomach, but a 1s | small quantity, not sufficient to cause | death, was found in the liver, Dr. Carter Dr. B both atsenic and “traces” of arsenic {In some bottles and things which had | been found in the house after death. | As to where they came from, or who {put them there, no one had any | knowledge. Upon this evidence Mrs. { Maybrick was committed. A true ibill was found and she was brought to | trial on the 31st of%July. | The trial was held in St. George's {hall, Liverpool. During all the davs of the trial, Liverpool society fought for tickets. Women, it is said, at- tired as if for a matinee; some brought their luncheons and most of them carried opera glasses. The {English press had for two months | suppliea nourishment in the form of { the most sensational stories about the prisoner to feed the morbid appetite of_the public. When_the trial began there was a strong feeling against Mrs. Maybrick, but_as it proceeded and the fact was made clear that Mr. Maybrick had long been addicted to taking large quantities of arsenic, coupled with the evidence, to quote Sir Charles Russell, (1) that fhere was no proof of arsenic pofsoning; no proof that arsenic was adminis- tered to him by his wife, the preju- dice gradually changed until, at the | close of the trial, there was a com- plete revulsion of sentiment and the prisoner confidently expected her ac- 1'qunml, - agreed with Humphreys, but The jury was out thirty-elght min- utes and they found the prisoner guilty. Mrs. Maybrick, when asked by the court if she had anything to say, with a firm voice sald: y lord, everything has been again: Iam not_guilty of this crime. Mrs, Maybrick was removed from the courtroom to Walton jail, there to Well-Known Fact That Ex- treme Heat Conduces to Chronic Constipation. E& many people are in the habit of eatfhg cold food in hot weather that constipation is very common during summer. It {s best to vary the food and have some hot things, as, for ex- nle, soups and hot fish and meats it that is to be the diet. Iced water should be drunk sparingly. In spite of all cars people will be- come constipated, and if you find yourself in that condition you can get immediate relief by the use/ of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. There is no time of the year when you should be \more careful of constipation than in the summer, for many of the serious flinesses as well an the faltalities re- ult from a clogging up of the bowels. ou also need general good health to withstand the heat, and hence Syrup Pepsin is best to take because it con- tains tonic ingredients that help to build up the entire system.

The ex- ecution was to have taken place on Aug 26. The prisoner was given no hint of the public efforts for her re lief, which were many. Mrs. Maybrick was dressed in the convict's garb and was kept In soli- tary confinement. The sentence was not carried out. On Nov. 4, 1896, Mrs. Maybrick was removed to. Aylesbury rison. She arrived there with a num- er of other convicts. In the mean- time petitions were being circulated all over England and America for the prisoner’s release. The Ame: pe- jtition was signed by the vice-presi- | dent of the United States, the secre- tary of state, James G. Blaine, and for a long list of notables. petition was forwarded in 1892, and yet it re- quired from that time until July 20, 1904, before the English government was willing to release the prisoner. She left England at once for Fran'e upon her release and on Aug. 23, 1904, she arrived in America. No trial of the character has ever created more interest or elicited more sympathy for { the- prisoner than that of Florence Maybrick. ] LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Nt Is To Laugh.
