JACOB SHARPE'S SENTENCE.
Tbe long and bitter trial of w*l inp In
' Jacob Sharpe's case bas euded and his
Sentence has been proi.ouuctd nt tbe
band* of his judge. It matters little to
the really interested In this verdict the
people of a great city and tbe citizens ot
a great uation that a motion for a stay
I of proceedings has been granted and
that no efforts will he spared to secure
Can appeal to the higher courts. 'I bis
verdict Is instant and direct. It is the
legal issue of the attempt to bribe in
Its relations to courts and juries and
penalties for tbe offense that interests.
It is tbe question of legal condemnation
or acquittal of a man of large wealth
and vast influence for crimes too long
considered venial. It is the determina-
tion of tbe mucb-meoted point whether
or no there be any limit to the corrupt-
ing power of money In its Influence
upon legislatures and municipal
councils—at least such limitation
as cau be made effectual in
preventing all attempted bribery anil
corruption for the future. In deciding
tbls case Judge Barrett has regard to
tbe equities of tbe case rather than to
tbe mere tecbnecalities of testimony.
Upon tbe plain and unmistakable prop-
osition tbat the stream eannot rise
higher than its source the judge con-
cluded it absurd to hold a doubt of the
prisoners guilt inasmuch as he was tbe
bead and moving cause of tbe whole
arrangement whereby bull a million
dollars was raised to corrupt the state
legislature from wbose act the prisoner
reaped the immense profit of uwany a
million dollars. The fact tbat neither
tbe age of the prisoner bis social post
tiouor bis enfeebled health had an; miti-
gating effect in influencing a lighter
sentence may be taken as evidence
of tbe fact tbat tbe time has
gone by in New York for condo-
ning such offences against legislative
purity municipal honesty aad tbe
rights of citizens as Mr. bbarp ha* been
adjudged guilty of. Tbe severe sentence
of four years at bard labor and a $6000
fine will be such a* te strike terror to
tbe minds ot municipal corruptionists in
New York. Tbe judge merely replied to
tbe appeals for a light sentence tbat it
was a case for justice and not for mercy.
Tbe action of Judge Barrett in this mat-
ter will be commended by the judgment
of all right thinking people even though
their sympathies be enlisted for an old
man who has passed bis three score and
ten years and Is reported by bis physi-
cians as tottering on the verge of tbe
grave under the pressure of mortal mala-
dies. Jacob Sharp may not serve out
his sentence but the sentence is there
a* a matter of record with all Its accom-
panying circumstances a terror unto the
uture corruptionists.

—A hammock and a shady piazza sep-
arated from the Atlantic ocean by tbe
greenest of meadows daisy-dotted and
fragrant with wild roses to tbe very
brink; a sky so blue and reposeful that
one feels as If tbe habitation of tbe
angels was surely there; no sound but
the song of robin red-breast with tbe
o«easion»l refrain of "Bob White” and
the beating of the breakers against the
"rock bound coast.” Just here under
th-ee heavenly conditions Is your c >r-
respondent. Tbe noise and bustle and
heat of the city are as If they had never
been and were it not for daily papers
and the frequent ring and •■hello" of the
telephone oue might forget not only
one’s duty in the world but every thing
that was sad and dlsagreeabla as well.
But the poverty and sickness of our
great cities the dying little ones to
whom a breath of tills pure ocean air
would indeed bo "the breath of life”
the heartache and exhaustion ot the
poor mothers furnishes that great other
side of shadow which lias modified every
joy ever since the world was made.
Tbls summer paradise which I have
been describing forms the the extreme
southern point of the little state of
Rhode Island. It is five miles from
Watch Hills which famous watering
place can be reached by a walk or drive
upon a beach as firm as a marble floor
and banked by green-capped sand hills.
Another favorite drive to this point is
through pleasant country roads past
fertile farms and lonely meadows with
glimpse* of white sails and blue sea all
along the route. So clear Is tbe atmos-
phere today that the L mg Island coast
20 miles or more away is distinctly
visible and the great hotels of Block
Island away to the eastward seem just
at hand. The lights of Watch Hill
Block Island. Montank and Point Judith
can all be seen at night from this place
making a sweep of sea and coast as rare
as it is beautiful. The fortunate owner
o’ Weekapaug which is the eastern
portion of Noyes Point. Is Mr. John A.
Taylor formerly corporation counsel of
the city of Brooklyn. Mr. Taylor held
this office at the same time Seth Low
was mayor—two American gentlemen
wbose names will be inseparably con-
nected with the history of that city. Mr.
Taylor spends bis summers at the
“Hussaoks” a farm bouse over
one hundred years old with
wide fire places In which h's
heart delight and great rooms with low
ceilings and heavy beams. The piazza
of "the Hussock” overlooks a lawn at
the foot of which the yacht "Bessie”
and the children’s row boats are moored.

sort of families—those who want neat
healthful quiet and at tbe same time

not necessary tbat a man shall be a

shall put up expensive villas though
there is no place in the new or the old
world more worthy the finest architec-
ture. and all that human skill and
taste can furnish than this sea
jutting point of beautiful Rhode Island.
There Is sport for tbe sportsman here
there are fish of every name for disci-
ples of Ike Walton pickerel and trout as
well as black iisU and sea-bass.
There is ocean enough for those who
love it and wooded hills and valleys
and wild flowers of every variety
Malaria was never known at this point
and when imported here proves hut a
short lived misery. Strangely enough
our best physicians recommend this
spot for throat and lung affections for
some of their patients instead of the
mountains and they invariably im-
prove. The evenness of the tempera-
lure—it is never hot b< re—bas much to
do with the healthfulness of the place.

TBSTIMONIALS
Palestine Jan. 11 ISB7. To all whom It
may concern: This Is to certify that I was. for
about four months last winter. In an almost
helploss condition caused from rheumatism
In both of mv legs and what little walking I
did was very painful aud slow both legs being
so drawn from the effects of the disease that I
could not slralghten them. With three or
four rubbings or treatments by Dr. Fanning
the pain loft me and 1 am now as well as I
ever was and walk us well as I ever did.
My little girl has been afflicted with curva-
ture of the spine lor ten years. Last spring
her limbs became perfectly paralyzed she
had no use of them at ull. Physicians said
they could do nothing for her and Mr. Fan-
ning's treatment aloue cured her. She can
run ami jump and play as well as any child
health being better than ever before.
