(Columbia Record.) Judge Cage's recent charge lo tho Laurens grand jury was out of tho ordinary, hut very excellent. While lt is commoplace, it is very helpful lo be reminded that lawyers aro offi cers of the court, and that their full duty to the clients is performed when they have exerted their best efforts to put tho truth before the jury, lt ls not the duty of a lawyer, under his oath, to acquit a client or to win a case. Another point which Judge Cage very properly stressed ls the absurd ity of adjourning court because the veniro has been (mashed upon a technicality. "There ought to he a remedy for that sort of thing," he said, "and if the judge presiding at the court had tho right then an there, as he ought to have, to order another jury to ho subpoenaed and served then and there, there would be no motions to quash." Inequality of peremptory challenges is another defect In our judicial system to which he called attention, a defend ant having ton challenges as against five for tho prosecution. But the last matter touched upon by Judge Cage is perhaps tho most Important, and that is tho matter of appeals. Under our procedure In tho criminal courts the attorney fo>" a convicted defendant would caus? astonishment if he did not at once, upon tho an nouncement of the verdict, make a motion for a new trial, and upon its refusal give notice of appeal. This notice of Itself acds as a stay of sen tence and permits the convicted per son to be released upon ball. "The man whom tho jury has con victed," says Judge Cage, "often boats tho jury who convicted him out of the court house." Nothing is re quired," ho said, "to chow any merll in the appeal." Tho appeal may hang fire for an almost Indefinito pe riod, and If tho ease ls lost in tho Supremo Court, it may frequently bo appealed again upon some other tech nicality or pretext.

FLOOD'S TODD FIVE MILLION. Death Record in Chinese Provinces from Flood and Famine. New York. Sept. !>. Flood and rains in the Yang-Tse Klang Valley have claimed ai least 5,000,000 souls within thc decade, according to con servative computations of missionary societies and other organizations. In the famine ol' l!M)(>-07, the most awful camp of which history has any record, was established outside the wall of the ancient city of Tsing Kl ang Pu, situated on the grand canal aboul 100 miles north of the Yang Tso river, almost 150,000 persons were huddled in huts of mud. De spite the effort made by the ('hi?ese government, by devoted missionaries and hy well disposed foreigners thou sands died every day. A large con tingent of Chinese and Influential foreign residents believe that the greatest responsibility confronting the Chinese government to-day ls tin solving of nu engineering problem that will save the ll- <>s of tho 150, 000 persons who now inhabit tho val ley and make possible its continued human occupation. The recurring floods are due partly to the denudlnn Hoods of the upper valleys. Huge dams hold the flood waters from reaching natural channels in many places, and completely sub merge millions of acres yearly. The engineering problems referred to are staggering.

ALL DRUGGISTS TO PROTECT HUMAN LIFE. Mechanical Device Ditcndcd to Vre vent Riiilroud Accident?. After four yours of Investigation of numerous devices designed to pre vent accidents on railroads, or at least to lessen this danger to trav elers and rolling stock, the Inter state commerce commission, it is stated, has probably found ono appli ance which will perform this duty as perfectly ?B a machine can. The in vestigations have been made uuder an act of Congress, which authorized the expenditure of $50,000 for this purpose. The commission set to work, and scattered/broad-cast the information that any and all appliances designed to prevent or decrease accidents on railroads would be cheerfully re ceived and investigated, if submitted by the Inventor. A large number of these devices, ranging from the com plex to the near-ludicrous, were sent in to tho commission, the total num ber being 185. These were all closely investigated by experts, and one af ter another eliminated from the test. Tito few which were left, were then given practical tests to prove their efficiency. lt is stated that the latest and most promising of these tests has just closed, after continuing for nearly two months. The Inventor is Frederick Lacroix, a nativo of Texas, who has been working for a long number of years upon the invention to prevent accidents upon railroads. The principle of the invention lies in the "third rall." By this device, combined with electrical apparatus, including a dynamo operated by a steam sturblnc, within each engine, a danger signal is Immediately flashed when two engines are on the same track within half a mile of each other. Immediately upon the flashing of the danger signal, power is immediately applied automati cally to the brakes, and the trains are brought to a slow standstill be I for i they can possibly arrive in con tact. The Erie Railroad, it ls stated, in stalled the device on a ten mile stretch between Nutley and West Nutley, N. J., and following sev eral tests, the Interstate Commerce Commission decided to investigate, and had a twelve-mile stretch of rail road equipped with the appliance. The tests began in February and con tinued until recently. During the time seven hundred different tests wore mrtdo, nvder all Imaginable cir cumst?.n< ni and .onditious, and the appliance ?ppears ir. imvo bji on suc cessful in every instance. No announcement ba? yet beeb made by the commission as to whe ther the invention will he ordered Into general use on the railroads throughout the country, but If t".e device Is nccepted lt Is presumed that this order will be published In a short time. The great loss of life, limb and property in railroad acci dents in this country has been often tho 'ubject for criticism and anxiety on tho part of the authorities of the land, and no doubt the general pub lic will welcome tho installation of any device which will aid in ..oep ing down the number of accidents on railroads which draw such heavy tolls from Amorlcnn civilization each year. . -- ? w--; Foley's Kidney Remedy (Liquid) is a great medicine of proven value for both acute and chronic kidney and bladder ailments.
