It has often bi'cn remarked how enormously the atmosjihore of New York city or lu vicinity magnifies the importance of any matter of news, specially murder cases, for the whole country. The Thaw trial h ripens to possess features which would mark It for widespread interest wherever held, but mime of Its predecessors have convulsed tho country without any particular claim to notoriety apart from the fact of occurrence in New York. A show girl shoots a race track book-maker In a street cab on the eve of his breaking off rela tions with her by sailing for Europ with his wife, and the whole country is' agg If the debating societies, whether of cross-road) schools or of universities), had wWfied a really live query they would huve chosen this: Resolved, That Nan Patterson did not boot "Caesar" Young. For over a year the Illustrious Nan was the most conipleuous HvIiik woman, no far as this country was concerned, While anions; dead gentlemen the one who had trie honor of perishing by her hand mi fur transcended tile fame of hln great flyman namesake a to make It resemble a certain small sum of money, llefore the third iiri'l l....l..l kn.l .1 a I I t.u illltll IMiniieit IIWU " nil' ', 'ill cratiks between the two oceans were yearning eltner ! come forward mxl testify In Nun'H behalf nr to marry her. Newspapers all over the coun try prlntetl varying amounts of non Nsn matter, some much, soinu lit tle, but fnls Was merely for the saKe of appearance and not because It was supposed that anybody really want ed to read It. Hysteria reached a fearful pitch If the tension had (oontlnucd much linger business would have been seriously disrupted nd we might have lial to declare war against Home ntner country as means of relieving our nerves. Kven merely dlHguKtlng ciiss such irs those of Berthe Claim., and Josephine Ter ranova caused Idprjirraii excitement. Any person, especially a woman, de siring to achieve Instant notoriety all oyer the country lias only to go to New York and murder somebody. Nashville has just had a murder trill more 'Inherent ly sensational than any which New York had seen for a long time previous to t.ie Tlinw case r. J. Herman Fclst, a promising and popular young pliysii .m oi the Toii Bsoe capital, has been convicted of a remarkable murder ami iriut suf fer the deatn penalty unless some technicality can be Invoked to sti htm. He wii charged with the deniti Of Mrs. Bona Mangrum, a woman with whom he had become Involved Mr. Mangruni left her nusband on., day In December. 1 905, with fl.'.nu In 01h and Jewelry worth several fcnndred dollars, to pay a visit to frtrnds In Chicago. That was the lilt heard of lier until live weeks liter, when her body whs found fleeting In the Ohio rivr ut ('alio, III. Her trunk n -1 1 its destina tion, but the in mi y and Jiwrlry Were sever found I'ar-.ful investigation by detectives and 'lie ilmd wniiuiii's friends resulted In the arrest iid Subsequent trial of lir l-Yln The State proved to the satisfaction of the Jury that Dr. Feist hired n horse and buggy, met Sin Myogram at the depot if ter she lud .he. ked her trunk ind n she win preparing to leav for Oiic igo. took her driv ing, killed her with a hypodermic in jection of Dint deadly drug, took 1 htr valuable and threw her body into the Cumberland river, down Vhlch It floated on lis long Journey to the Ohio. The most salient fea ture Of th evidence against Dr. Feist, Which was purely circumstan tial WM the fact that he deposited In' ft bank the sum of IhOO a few daya sifter the disappearance of Mr XUngrum. The trial consisted large ly of battle bet wen experts over the State's contention that the woman did not die from a natural cause and that aba wit not drowned. Through out, tba evidence wai of such a na iure.aa would have given the New York yellows season of great hip plneaa and prosperity an4 caused bus Ulned egdtiment r tnrough out the country. 4 So,' for. that mattar, would th"Blop 'oaie, In Charlotte four yeara ago. or the WTtoot-Cropaey case, it FUiaboth City. ; Hut HI tha and manf another . bi5r i teck4 f the one thing BwdfuL.

The North- Carolina legislator! have had no opportunity to , do ao great a asftlc'e aa the demand for the abolition of the State dispensary af forded the South Carollnatans, ; al though the latter foil . ahort In not granting a fuller measure of local op tlon. The death of the marriage li cense bill In the Senate after pass ing the House concerna adjoining States aa well aa South Carolina and Is much to be regretted. Of the things which were not done, thai railing for moat rejoicing waa tne Incredible proposition to restrict widows' right of dower, which ac tually passed the House. On the wTiole, the people of South Carolina have cause to be pleased with this Legislature, and they seem to be. In Alabama the Legislature, which also started wild, Is steadying Its pace, but there la still much room for im provement. The Tennessee body ap pears to have gone crazy and alarm Is general In the Slate. Beginning with radical prohibition measures, It Is running amuck, now In thts direc tion and now In that. The prlnclplo of local self-government 'has been thrown to the winds. The latest "out rage" is a bill, which has already passed the House, taking away from cities tho right to govern public utili ty franchises. With Its attention so much divided, this amiable body has not yet paid much attention to that Htandard chopping block, t'ne rail roads, but their turn may come soon. While Legislatures nro uncertain things and It Is Impossible to feel ab solute socurlty until they have, ad Journed, If then, wo believe that North Carolina's law-maker will leave a record of quite as much good done and quite as much mischief left un done a any others In tho South. Mr. II. J. Houthall, of Augusta, who. representing Jlvo big New York trading companies, Is lighting rate discrimination against the Mouth on shipments of cotton goods to Chi nese und Japanese ports and seek ing to recover excess charges al ready paid, 'nas a good cuuse. His petition to the inter-State commerce commission shows that from points In eight Southern States the export charge Is $1.25 per hundred, while from New Kngland manufacturing centres It Is only 115 cents. Twenty-I 11 vis rullroad companies and two I'a clllc steamship lines are marie de fendants, it Is asserted that a favor able decision would mean millions of dollars to the Hout'i, which already controls thrco-fourtns of the Ameri can cotton goods trade with the Orient. Mr. Houthall has our best wishes for his success. ICvldence Is multiplying to show that In no other field Is the application of the square deal principle more needed than In hat of freight rates. A volume entitled "Uecollectlons and ltellectlons," by Col. Wharton J. lireen, of Fayetteville, from tho presses of Edwards A Broug'nton, of Halelgh, forms the latest addition to North Carolina bibliography. Col. lireen Is an Interesting gentleman, has bad many Interesting experiences, and has met all sorts of Interesting people, so we are quite prepared to take tin word of The Wilmington St ir, which has read his book, that It is "full of charm and edlllcatlun." We will back that hugo sun spot against t ,-ie- ground-hog and the Gulf Stnam put together. DFE T A M'KKtniNU HAIL.

The taking of evidence waa coacluded before noon and Mr Plummer Stewart, for the prosecution, and Mr Little, for the defense, addressed the Jury After re-adjournment Mr, Cameron Morri son, for the State, Colonel Maxwell for the defense, and Solicitor Clark son, for the etate, addressed the Jury. Judge Justice then committed the case to the Jury As yet. they have been un able to agree. Dr. Davidson resumed the stand yesterday mornlntr. Col. Maxwell re minded the court of it decision of the day previous that no prescriptions or drug store records could be submitted as substantive evidence and asked that thle be adhered to during the rest of the trial. The courts ruling was the same as previously. M. McRae then took up the cross examination of Dr Davidson. Pre scriptions filled at Blair Bros.' drug store between February 1 and IS, wcro submitted to him and identified as his own. There were 54 of these. Another bunch of 100 signed by him and filled by Blair Bros, was submit ted to him and 99 were recognized. With the consent of Col. Maxwell a number of druggists were put on the stand and these testified as to the number of prescription Issued by Dr. Davidson and filled by them .Among the facts brought out was that Wood- all . Shepherd filled 342, mostly for quarts, between January 1 and Feb ruary 17; J. P. Btowe & Co., 34; At kinson Drug Company. 54; Charlotte Drug Company, 461. Nearly all the prescriptions were for quarts. Mrs Mollle Wilson was the next occupant of the wtiness chair. She said that on the 10th of January she was in the doctors omce. A man came In and said he was suffering from rheumatism and wanted attention. The man Insisted on being treated right awny, so the doctor topk him Into another room, where they stayed 6 or 10 minutes. When cross-examined by Mr. Mor rison, the witness said she did not see the man Introduce himself to Dr. Da vidson. Among the first witnesses called yesterday morning was Mr. E. L. Bax ter Davidson, who said that he was In l)r. Davidson's office on the 10th when Henderson came In for the pres cription. He heard the patient say that he was suffering greatly with rhoumatlHtn and needed Immediate attention. At the time Henderson called Dr. iJavbi.on and two lady visitors were feeding the pet monkey. After Mr. Davidson had given his direct testimony, and corroborating what Dr. Davidson and Mrs. Mollle Wilson had said about Morrison began to cross-examine him. "Do you know Dr. Davidson?" ask ed the lawyer. "Certainly, I do," was the quick re-, ply. "He is a first eousin of mine.' "Do you ever go to his office oc casionally?" "Yes, when ever I get ready."- "Did Mr. Henderson call while you were there?" "Yes." "Were you playing with the monkey when he arrived?" "Not that I know of." "Who arrived first, you or the la dles?" "They arrived first." "You say that you know Dr. David son pretty well?" "Yes, better than you do for you are a dry man and I go up for a drink now and then". Mr. Davidson made a very interest ing witness. Mr. H. H. Jordan, the next witness testified that his house had filled Dr. Davidson's prescriptions for 23 quarts of corn whiskey between the 1st of January and the 17th .of this month. Mr. VV. M. Wilson, of the Charlotte Drug Company, declared that he had tilled a prescription on the 7th for It. K. Henderson,' but eould not re call who presented It. He said that the one on the 7th was filled before the one on tho 10th. "It 1 Impossible for me to recall everyone who gets prescriptions," said Mr Wilson when asked If Henderson himself got the prescription on tho 7 th. The defense put up tho following named character Witnesses, all of who,,, said that the general character of Dr. Davidson was good: Captain S. H. Alexander, Mr. Joe Nick Hunter, 'Squire W. A. Alexander and Dr. J. F. Itohertson. . A Mr Mulligan, time keeper at the Pipe ji Foundry Company, was called by the Htale to testily that Henderson worked for him all the day of he7th. The most startling bit of testimony cumi) from Police Officer Chrlsten hurv who. when asked about the character of Mrs. Mollle Wilson, said It Is bad." It was said yesterday morning that several policemen hed been asked to appear and say that Mrs. Wilson's character was bad, but that some had declined for the rea son that they could not prove It. But Mr Chrlstenbury said that he had known her for three year and that her character was "bad." Mrs. Wilson Is the wlfo of Mr. Sam uel Wilson, who worked for the city, ut the water station, for several year This may bring on another case. A bright young lawyer said yester day thHt ho would like to make the officer prove that charge. Mr. W. M. Wilson, of the Char lotte Drug Company, was placed on the stand by the defense. He aald that on January 7th he filled a pre scription for IV. B. Henderson. It wa written by Dr. Davidson, The prosecution mt Ihls move by recalling It. E. Henderson to the stand and having him swear he was not the man to whom the prescription was Issued. Time Keeper Mulligan, of the Char lotte Pipe Foundry Compariy, where Henderson Is employed, swore that Henderson was at work all day on January 7th. The only time ha waa off during the day waa tO mlnutea for dinner. Patrolman Chrlstenbury swora that the reputation of Mrs. Wilson was bad. Capt 8. B. Alexander, Dr. J. F. Itobnrstnn, Mr. W. A. Alexander, Mr. J. N. Hunter and others testified aa to tha good character of tha two Dav. Id son brothsra. Hera tha defense rested Its case. At the Instance of tha prosecution Mr. Blackwslder. who waa one of the trio for whose benefit tha preacripUoa was obtained, took , tha stand. He told of Ilandaraon'a dtpartora far tha Young snarrM fnf .n 00' . have a ; aklldrsii, .to Jaugli and find thlr troubles will "Ultla one" be, if tssr take lloeky Mountain Tea. - ("V: I . .if ,ap,r, ai.l!nsr t'.:t : wan h i ' t 1 r. Davidson's oi:U.t; i.e. I of Ms i. turn, f aying It was iv t ) get. Messrs. Hoiieo and Kendrlck testi fied as to the good charctcr of Tl.no Keeper Mulligan. This closed the taking of testimony. Mr. fiuminor Htewart opened the esse for thu Ktnle. Un. amtihsilzMi .the f.iet of the large number ot prescription is sued by lir. Davidson and declared tlmr It was unreasonable that 'a doctor would have so many bona fldo patients whose treatment demanded whiskey. He did omo stunt and mathematics and said that for the 1,371. prescriptions issued from January . 1st to February 18th, at the rate of 60 cents would amount to a grand aggregate of tt&t-tbl Income be ing, of course, aside from , his practice on patients who don't need whiskey. ' When Mr Stewart had taken his seat, Mr. : Little Oneneil ihs anrument for tha defense. He contended that a great part oi int argument, of the bill or. indict ment and the evidence had no bearingon the case and did not show guilt The number of prescription proved nothing. Mr. Cameron Morrison, for the orose- cutlon. spoke next.' He said that Dr. Davidson was much more interested in the outcome than - Henderson and henoe Henderson's word should be taken In preference In the case of the clash be- tween tnern. . The ' most sensational feature of the day was the charge that CoL Maxwell made, when he told the Jury that the $' fino imposed' on Henderson, from which he had aDDealed. would never be "Mark my words," said Mr. Maxwell,! mat case on the criminal docket nere will never be called." "That ISO will never be paid; they took Henderson's recoanlzanne in the record er's court and the $20 was of the nature of a bribe in tha hands of Henderson to swear in this transaction." - Col. Maxwell further charged. In a fearless and bold manner, that there had teen a corrupt transaction somewhere. and that the leading witness for the prosecution had been a party to it. while Mr. Morrison was sneaking, Just befons Col. Maxwell, he referred to "the Inference drawn by Mr. Judge Little, that there had been a corrupt bargain on the part of tha solicitor." Mr. Little interrupted the speaker and. stated tnat he had not Inferred anything; that he had only stated the case to the jury and told them to draw their own Inference. Mr. Morrison followed ihls hy saying that he did not think this statement materially altered the matter. He thought .It was nefarious that such in ferences should be charged against the State officers. Mr. Little declared that there had been no aspersions cast upon these gentlemen. Col. Maxwell also declared that Hen derson had told a mot unnatural story; that he had sworn to a lie and that he would not.be given an opportunity to r. Maxwell, "that lie would pay it when it came duo. Mark those words. It will never come due." These remarks created no little sen sation In the court room when they were so boldly uttered by Mr. Maxwell. in his argument, the solicitor, in re ferring to this same matter, made a bona fide offer to counel for the de fense, to permit them to dispose or tne case against Henderson. "This answers your talk about Henderson's case not having any chance to ever be culled In this court' said Mr. Clurkson. Mr. Clarkson's speech was the last of the series, and following It Judge Jus tice charged tne lury. ine ourden in in is ease, snia nin ironur, et nn th State. It must orove to the satisfaction of tho 1urv either that Dr. Davidson, In the Issuance of this pre scription. Issued It to a man who was not sick, or to a man who was not a bona Ado patient of his, or that he Is sued It with the Intention of aiding the one to whom it was. Issued in securing whiskey. If the man for whom it was written was sick, or wag a bona fldo patient or if the prescription was not written with Intent to violate the law, then the Jury should return a verdict of not guilty. The number of prescrip tions was not substantive evidence, but merely available for correcting the wit ness. His honor did not speak longer than 10 "minutes The Jury wrestled with the case till bed-time and then slep on The pen&l'y for violation of the law concerned lies very largely In the discre tion of the court. The offense constitutes a misdemeanor, for which the maximum penalty Is two years imprisonment and a fine, one or both. MERELY AN EIABO RATION.
