The First Lawyers Plea by w o man.
A moot court case was argued in
the Law Lectur g room last Tues
day, before Chief Justice Camp

were: For plaintiff, Miss Mary
Kilgore, of Indiana, and w. V.
Crosley, Of Illinois. For the de-
fendant, w. o. AFFORD Of Pontiac,
and Ira G. Mosley, Of Illinois.
The suit was brought by the plain
tiff against a life insurance comp.
any on policy of insurance on q
man named Jackson. There was
inserted in the policy a clause
that it would be void if said Jack
son died by his own hand. Jock
son committed suicide by taking
poison. The question was wheth-
er jackson died by his own hand.
The large room was packed full.
and the audience seemed to be
very much interested 10 hear the

seemed to thoroughly understand
the ease, and handled 1t in an able

pom the case. The decision was
for the plaintiff, that Jackson did
not die by his own hand.-- Ann

Full Text Of King Williams General
Order to the German Armies.
Soldiers of the Confederate German
-Armiss:
We have again arrived at the
crisis of the war. When l last
addressed you the host of the hos
tile armies which, at the COM
mencement Of the campaign, con-
fronted us, had, by the capitula
ton of Metz, been destroyed. The
enemy has since, by extraordinary
exertions. opposed to US newly
formed troops, and large portion
Of the Inhabitants Of France have
often. indeed, with many bloody
sacrifices, as at Champigny and
LIE Brurget, but with q heroism
such as you have everywhere dis
played toward him. The armies
of the enemy, which were advan-
cling from every direction to the
relief Of Paris, have all been de-
feated. Our troops, some of whom
only few weeks ago stood before
Metz and Strasbourg, have to-day
forsaken their peaceful. and by us
unhindered, vocation in order to
take up arms. The enemy was
frequently superior to us in num-
bers, but you have. nevertheless,
again defeated him, for valor and
discipline and confidence in q
righteous cause are worth more
than numerical preponderance.
All attempts Of the enemy to
break through the investment walls
Of Paris have been firmly repulsed;
advanced as far as Rouen, Orleans
and Dion. and among many small
er victorious engagements, two
new important battles-those OF
Amiens and the several days fgh!
at Orleans-have been added to
our former triumphs' Several
fortresses have been conquered,
and much war material has been
taken. I have reason, therefore
for the greatest satisfaction and
it is to me q qualification and duty
to express this to you. I thanl
you all, from the general TO thu
common soldier. Should the enc
emy persist in . further prosecu.
tion of the war, I know you viii
continue to show that exertion O
all your powers to which We ow,
our great success hitherto, unit
We wiring from him an honorabl,
peace, worthy the great sacrifices
Of blood and life which have bee,
offered up. WILLIAM.

Letting the Ola Cat Die.

AcSS1o8 VAe Ot0 Oot DIG.
Not long ago, wandered near
A playground in the wood,
And there heard words from . youngstsr' 3
That I've never quite understood.
"Now let the old cat die, ~ he laughed,
saw him give push.
Then gayly scamper away as he, spied
My face peep over the bush.
But whs. he pushed, or where he went,
could not we'll make out,
On account of the thicket Of bending boughs,
That bordersd the place about.
"The little william has stoned cat,
Or hung il upon q limb. @z ~
And left il to die all aloue," said:
"But III play the mischief With him"
| forced ny way between the boughs,
The poor old eat to seek,
And what did find but swinging child,
With her bright hair brushing her cheek.
Her bright hair Roated to aud fro,
Her little red dress flashed by,
But the lOvellest thing of all, thought,
Was the CLEAN OF her laughing eye.
Swinging and swaying back and forth,
With the rose light in her face,
She seemed like bird and flower in one,
And the forest her native place.
"Steady! FL send you up, my child,'
! But she stopped me with cry:
"Go away! 20 away! Don't touch me
please
Fm letting the old cat disv'
"You letting him die!" I cried, aghast-
"Why, where's the cat, my dear7"
And 10! the laughter that filed the woods
Was thing for the birds to hear.
sWhy don't you know" said the little maid
The fitting. beautiful elf;
"That we call it 9ettiug the cat die
When the swing stops al itself?''
Then swinging AID swinging, and looking
back,
With the merriest look in her eyes,
She bade me goodbye and left her alone
