The End Of the visibly Admired Case,
Petty Prosecutions for Political Pur-
poses.
ANoHs in the Case against the Trustees

Court, Judge Guthrie presid-
ing. The State introduced
four witnesses Phineas Toms
linson, a Mr.. Ireland, John
Mayo and BENZ. Redd. The
two latter did not pretend to
know anything about the mat
ter except that Lucas had
sworn before the Trustees that
he was more than half white.
Mr.. Tomlinson knew defen-
danPs father and grandfather.
They were both light mulattoes,
more than half white-proba-
bly, quadroons. Ireland had
heard defendant say at one
time that his mother was an
Indian woman. 1t is worthy OF
remark that the "important
witness" for the State in this
case, for whom the trial was
delayed, and for whom they
sent to Pickaway county, and
who was an uncle of the defen-
dant, acquainted with his an
cestors, were sworn, but not
called to the stand to testify.
The defense were prepar ed
with their witnesses, but the
State had made such a palpa-
BILE failure in proving the least
shadow of what they claimed
that the case was allowed to
go to the jury on the evidence
of the State alone, and they
promptly returned a verdict Of
not guilty.
Upon the withdrawal of the
jury to their rooms a nolJe was
entered in the case against the
Trustees, and thus concludes
the last of the series of farces
which have been presented by
the Prosecuting Attorney, sup.

them failures, so far as any
good to the State or the Dem
ocracy was concerned. We
have had the cases Of the State
against VIM. j. Rannells and

ties acquitted; the State against
A. L. Brown and Job W. Lucas
for illegal voting mo evidence
and parties acquitted; the State
against the Trustees of Elk
township-no shadow Of a case
and n0lle entered. The cost
to the county of these five
cases is not less than 81, 900, to
say nothing OF the loss of time

Prints on Apples and Pears

A friend who has lately been on q
visit to the 'sHub OF the Universe"
writes to the Charleston Courier as
ioiiows:
SHAVE just seen very pretty and

in brief, everything that may sug-
gest itselfto our taste and fancy; and
all done In the skin Of the fruit,
without abrasion or any foreign i'm
preston. The discovery was made
by the Hon. Arthur Austin, Of West
toxbury, in 1872. lie observed,
during the former year, that apples
did not redden In that part Of the
fruit where leaf happened to lie
upon 1t. In 1862 he cut out letters
from newspapers, and when the APP
Piles we're yet green, he pasted them
upon them with paste such as apoth.
ecaries use, made Of Gum Tragacanth.
The apples would redden In all parts
not covered by the pasted letters.
When the fruit had Redeemed to
perfection the letters were removed,
and they would appear permanently
outlined in green. So, again, when
he pasted on the apple a paper In
which the letters were cut out, the
parts covered by the paper would be
green, and the letters would appear,
distinctly turned in red, the green
surrounding them. The experiment
Ii a pretty one, and produces happy
effect. Let our fruit-growers try 1t.

sensible Girl who Meant Bust
0eONs.


Twenty years ago, q young man
who had paid attention to a bright,
sweet girl, for long time, without
making anything that WAS even Sec
ond-cousin to proposal, was startled
by the question: Robert, do you
want to marry me?" He tried to
evade the point by asking why she
put such question to him. "Be-
cause, II you don't want to marry
me, you must stop coming to see me.
No mocking-bird around the red
breasts nest, you know"
Robert took the hint, and with
cool goodnight, walked home.
What should he care for a girl so
rude as that? Good company rs her
elsewhere. He would join the Club
the next day. He tried to sleep but
couldn't. He didn't like the turn
things had taken. The figure plagued
him. IT he was the inocking- bird,
who was the redbreast he was keep
ing from such partner? "At any
rate, one thing Ii certain, Edna Is as
smart as she IL pretty" he said to
himself, land she means business"
The next morning Robert went to
the counting room, when presently
Joe Mason came In, and said: ~ tell
you what 1t Ia, Bob, you were lucky
In keeping out Of the Club. l have
paid another assessment Of Atty dol
lars; and what il worse, I meet such
