The Laredo Times says
’’The Beaumont Journal correspond-
ent who has been haled before a com-
mittee of the house to answer charges
of insulting its dignity stands pat.
It seems-the "newspaper man was par-
tially getting even with Representa-
tive O’Qtiihn for insults that official
had heaned upon him and now O'Quinn
woukt be 'revenged by getting the
newspaper man tried for contempt.
O’Quinn had better let that scribbler
alone else he will wish he had never
been born before the Journal gets
through with him. These are high
times when a newspaper cannot criti-
cite the nets of public officials. How
else may the people know what their
representatives rre doing unless
(brought the agency of the news-
papers?”
P’Quinn and the irate should let up
while they have a chance. They should
remember what McGary did to the
judge who held him In contempt.

A GENERAL COMPLAINT.
Arm v Officer Wants Credit for Gal.
lant Service.
The amy board which has been for
two weeks discussing the case of Cap-
tain G. L. Dctchcmendy. formerly of
the Twenty-second infantry has filed
its report at the War Department.
That officer resigned from the army
on March 10 1902 anti it was com-
monly understood that he was dissatis-
fied oyer the fact that he did not re-
ceive sufficient credit for his services
tendered in the capture of Aguinalda
The claim lias since been made by
the friends of Captain Dqjcheniendy
that he was ill at the time ho submit-
ted his resignation and was too much
broken by exposure and disease to
realize Ihe effect of iiis action. Con-
gress authorized the Secretary of War
to appoint Captain Detchemendy to
the army and place him on the retired
list as a captain if it were found that
ite was. at the time of his resignation
incapacitated for active duty. It is
undi rsteod that the boerd has so found
and it is expected the finding will be
approved by. the War Department.
Captain Detchemendy's case is similar
to a hundred other complaints that the
War Department has overlooked in
the way of rewarding officers for
brave and gallant service.
For Blue and Gray Roster.
I The greatest interest is evinced by
the Governors of the Southern States
in the combined Union and Confede-
ate roster which is being prepared by
the record and pension office of the
War Department. The chief cf that
office. General E- C. Ainsworth is in
receipt of numerous acknowledgment:
of Secretary Root's letter to southern
Governors asking their assistance in
furnishing material and suggestions.
All the States excepting Texas and
Arkansas have responded with enthu-
siasm. and it is expected that those
two States will be heard from shortly.
The old Confederate soldiers of San
Antonio have frrnished the authorities
at Fort Sam Houston with some inter-
esting data and Texas will scon be
heard from.
Militia Law a Puzzler.
There continues to be in and out
of the army and especially among
those connected with the National
guard organizations the greatest in-
terest in the War Department inter-
pretation of the national militia law.
The situation is just where it has been
fir the last few weeks. The War De-
partment has taken the report of the
Army War college onthat subject and
has sent copies of it to the Governors
and adjutants general of States for
comment and suggestion. Such advices
will enable the War Department to
determine the effect of the provisions
of the law.
Vacancies to Be Filled.
There are 121 vacancies in the grade
of second lieutenant in thie atmy. Of
those vacancies 84 are in the
arm 15 in the artillery and 22 in the
cavalry. There are no vacant places
in the staff corps to lie filled by detail
from the line excepting three ttbsltlrtno

THE MOOREHEAD SUICIDE.
The Husband tod Much Prostrated to
B e Questioned.
Near York April 24.—The officials
connected with the ease of MrS. Irene
Moorehead who took bichloride of
mercury in the St. George hotel
Brooklyn last Friday and died in a
hospital after five days suffering are
satisfied that Mrs Moorehead took
the poison with suicidal intent. None
of them however has questioned the
woman's htisUand. who disappeared
after her death but was found later
at the home of a brothet in Manhat-
tan. as to the reason which prompted
his wife to poisnn herself. The
coroner said:
”1 have not questioned Moorehead
closely for he sectus so absolutely
wretched over his wile's death 1
thought it best to wait until the in
quest to get the Tacts.
"The •family afked me to keep the
case from the public. But 1 told them
it was my duty to t<'| the police. The
fact that Mrs. Moorehead took about
1"" grains of■ ItW+i'. rfif uf mercury
seems to load ’Bj'ottly one conclusion.
These tablets rot dissolve quick-
ly so the poisog i darught must havo
been prepared for some limo before
it was taken -dahaxc 'been tolil Mrs.
Moon'head had Ibcon subject to fits
of melanehoiia .sinee the death of her
only child.”

Fatalities of Easter Bonnets.
The Easter bonnet comes in for its
share of notice grave and gay. The
Terrell Daily Transcript says:
“That was a horrible revenge taken
by a jealous St Louis lover. Meeting
his best girl walking on Easter Sun
day with a rival he dqliberatcly seized
the .youqg ila<l. v H new : tore it
to pieces in a frency of rage. He ought
to be hangou drawn and quartcrod
like malefactors of old.”
And the telegraph dispatches report
that Mrs. Clarenca Bishhop aged 17
years of For< lorviy being refused
an Easterbonnet ran from home
jumped from ili" Erle' railroad bridge
into' the Neve.rsink; .river was

A Wrong Conclusion.

scendants of the Emerald Isle who are

Shamrock sails as the challenger is
urged in vain to the Kent"
But It is off its bnse in saying the
Irish wish Lipton bad luck. He is of

honor of Ireland. And many Ameri-
can- would like Lipton to get the cup
to reward bis pluck and give the fun
of bringing it home again. ”
