The question of keeping%a man in jail without giving him the right to immediately apply to the courts for a discharge by habeas corpus arose here last year,' and again this' year. Under the present procedure the nearest court to which a man can apply is the Supreme Court at Vancouver or Victoria, and would take at least 14 days before he could obtain his release���which in many instances would be ruinous to a business man. The Bar Association, backed up by the local bench and by the representative of the district, laid the matter before the proper authorities last season and yet the evil still continues. In districts such as our own,*and where delay is caused by the absence of Supreme Court judges, power should . be given to judges of the County Court to hear and determine all applications for habeas corpus and other proceedings affecting the liberty ,of the subject. THAT MIS-FIT PARDON. The recent pardoning of Brothier by the Dominion Government , has caused, and rightly too, great indignation on the part of the public of Canada, and especially so in British Columbia. A feeling of loathing and disgust is necessarily generated against a man guilty of the crime ot which Brothier was convicted���a crime which brands him as a human mon- ster, a vampire and a fit citizen of the regions beyond. In the present case, there could not possibly be any extenuating circumstances in this criminal's favor. He was comparatively a wealthy man, with many thousands of dollars to his credit in the bank, and was reported to have a more than average education, but, with all this, hesitated not to add to his ill gotten gains through the sacrifice of his own 'flesh arid blood. Reasons only of the gravest kind should influence a government (it matters not its political beliefs) in pardoning such an aggravated offence������reasons so grave should be of a public nature, publically announced. It is unfortunate that the man is a Frenchman, as it gives rise to a feeling' that his nationality and religion are in a great measure responsible for the apparently ill-advised action of the government. Until the government have had .an opportunity of giving a lucid explanation of its action, we do riot feel justified in too strongly condemning them. Still, we feel that a mistake has been made in turning ( a worse than, ghoul on the public. ( Coroner's Jury Gave^ Verdict of Death From Natural Causes-- The Funeral Well Attended^ ,When driving across Tar Flats shortly after 3 p.m. on Saturday last Malcolm Ross, driver for G. A.' Kerr & Co., Discovery,' discovered the lifeless body of Mrs. Charlotte Till lying on the' road. Mr. Ross immediately returned to Discovery and made known the fact and Dr. Young was telephoned for. When found, the body was still warm. Dr. Young * arrived on the scene about 4.45 o'clock but the deceased was beyond medical aid and he found life extinct. ��� Coroner H. Young was notified and on Monday he held an inquest on the remains with the following as jurors: John Dunham, foreman; J. F. Gibson, J. F. Breeze, M. R. Jamieson, V. Trotman and Paul Eggert. , ' , The following, witnesses were examined: L. B. Harris, A. B. P. Thomas, M. Ross, W. H. Vickers, W. Till and Dr. Young; After being out ,for,-some time the jury returned a verdict that the deceased came "to her death from natural causes, direct cause unknown. The deceased, who was 39 years of age, leaves" to mourn her loss a sister, Mrs. R. Findlay, of New Westminster, B. C, and her hus^ band, W. Till, of Spruce Creek, Atlin District, who ' has the' sympathy of - the entire' community in his sad bereavement. The funeral, which took place on Wednesday morning, was attended by a large number of citizens. Rev. A. -M.- Ross officiated and the pallbearers were: Geo.. CasselJs,^ V.

From the cradJle to the' grave she is much in the position of a man who has a fixed and certain income over and beyond that he acquires by his'own efforts.- The actual battle 'for supremacy never*, comes* directly home to 'her. Women are prone to, underestimate the terrors of this homicidal strife. They look- ���upon'-' a man in business as a being who achieves'' large profits ���from "small exertions, and entirely escapes the' dull, plodding routine" of'housekeeping and children rearing that they must face. As a matter of fact, the average "man, whether he be a bank president or a day laborer, spends niue-tenths of his time performing drudgery of the most .'depressing sort/ It=is a rare moment when he is not compelled to do something that" he -doesn't want .to'do?- It's a moment "rarer, still when he does not find himself in conflict with the aims or ambitions of some other man. , .

He had a barber's pole iu one hand and a wooden carpet., bag- in the other, consisting of a rat trap and a petrified coal "heaver, - and he was last seen crossing Atlin Lake with his legs tied in a knot and his head under his arm, singing "Au Revoir" through his npse. It appears he met a superannuated body snatcher, who 'struck him in the stomach with a pork sausage, causing him to have an attack of the collywobbles, and an old lady who witnessed the above outrage was so horrified that she fell down and struck her head against a feather bolster, causing a wound four feet deep, which bled so much that it washed au elephant into a ditch aud drowned a dog that wasn't there. Whoever will give such information to his afflicted parents will be kindly rewarded with a tripe medal. His father earns his living by carrying treacle in a sack, being his only means of subsistence.
