THE TRIAL TO TAKE PLACE on THE oath
INSTANT.

THE TRIAL TO TAKE PLACE on THE oath
INSTANT.
Mrs. Fair appeared in Court early
yesterday. She was looking pale
aud worn, but seemed in unusually
good spirits. She was escorted 10 a
seat between her counsel and at once
entered into an animated conversa-
ton with Mr.. Curtis. She wore a
magnificent black silk walking suit,
deliberately trimmed with silk fringe
and satin piping. laid on in rows and
fastened with small satin buttons.
Her hat was n black straw, very fine,
aud handsomely trimmed with jet
and spray, the whole being covered
with black illusion veil thrown over
the face and caught behind with an
elegant Jet pin. Black kid gloves
and pair OF jet bracelets, completed
her attire.
THE BOHEMIAN.
She laughed and chatted gaily with
her counsel and toyed with her little
black fan in the easiest and most
graceful way. 4 wandering Bohe-
mian who strolled into the Court.
room, and directly in front of her,
received n graceful bow of recogni-
ton and pleasant shake of the hand.
Pleased at the notice, the Bohemian
mt once became one of the group.
The animated conversation of the
quartette was interrupted by the
voice of tie Judge. The two coun.
sci looked piercingly at the bench.
Mrs. Fair dropped her eyes, but hei
ears were strained to catch every
word The wandering Bohemian
got. out his notebook.
THE JUDGES DECISION.
elm the case of the People against
Laura ID. Fair, n motion has been
made to remove the trial of the case
to another Court. The motion is
supported by an affidavit from Mrs.
Fair setting forth that in her opinion
1t will be impossible to have fair
and impartial trial in this city because
of the hostile feelings which she
aiiSSCS hdo bSCh ChreCudcici Wy COZ
tain newspaper articles and other
causes. There is, in the opinion OF
the Court no proof outside of Mrs.
Fairs affidavit, that her fears are well
grounded.
1.-The motion for a change of venue
must, therefore, be denied. I Iregret
this all the more from the fact that
the trial must take place in this
Court. l would gladly be relieved
of the duty it imposes upon me.
But the motion must be denied. The
trial is set for the Oath instant, and
the Clerk will issue a venire for two
hundred jurors. The prisoner will
be remanded into the custody of the
Sheriff. -
During the delivery of the opinion
q flush spread itself over Mrs. Fair
face, but she gave no other sign OF
disappointment. After q moments
consultation with her counsel, the
Deputy Sheriff escorted her back to
her dreary home.

POPPING THE QUESTION.
a YOUNG PHYSICIAN HAS MATRIMONIAL
PATENT!

A Physician of this city went to
his Office some twelve months ego,
and found seated there young and
lovely lady, of cultivated manners
aud apparently of good character.
The doctor, at first, thought her a
patient, and began to lay away his
overcoat, gloves, cane, etc., with the
view of sitting down and talking with
the fair visitor. She said very little
during the first few minutes. She
wore serious and pensive express
ion, which only made her features
more attractive. Misunderstanding, yet
charmed with the young beauty, the
doctor began:
We'll; miss, what can I do for
your"
THE psMsEL
did not seem at all confused, but
throwing back her auburn curls, and,
looking the doctor squarely in the
eye, she replied:
"You can marry mer
Leap year had not otcommenced, and
the III. D., though young physician,
was considerably nonplussed. The
lady did not laugh or smile, or show
any emotion. She was evidently in
earnest, and awaited his answer with
marked anxiety. A few minutes of
painful suspense followed, in which
neither of them spoke word. The
doctor declined to say no." yet he
was not prepared, without further
acquaintance, to say "yes." The
proposition had never been made to
him before, and little time for con-
suitation with friends and relatives
and bankers must be allowed. Ac-
cordingly he said to her:
II believe in first love and early
marriages. They promise the happi-
ness and welfare of the human race
more than any other institution of
social life. In the present instance,
however, you must give me a year in
which to make UP my mind. Twelve
months from this date call again and
l will then give you my answer
The young lady, though evidently
disappointed and somewhat
CREsT-FALLEN,
rose from her seat, promised to be
punctnal In returning at the end OF
the year. and bowling gracefully, said
goodbye" and departed. She
vanished from the ken of the young
physician as if by magic, and was
heard of no more for a time. The
doctor often recalled her images but
never once dreamed that the woman
would really return and again solicit
his hand in marriage.
The appointed time, however, came
Il day or two ago. and prompt, even
to the hour, was the same fair young
lady. She entered the office, and in
sweet voice, but with the same se-
rious and pensive expression, said to
the doctor:
II have called for your reply to my
offer of marriage made to you twelve
months ago."
THE DOCTOR WAS Overwhelmed.
He we'll remembered the circumstan-
ces of her previous visit, and would
willingly huve escaped from the me-
cessity of downright REFUSAL
There were, however, no other alter,
natives than ''yes" or no." and he
reluctantly used the latter. The
young lady, beautiful and charming
even in her disappointment, quietly
left the office as gracefully as she
had entered it. Pheauthorities soon
afterwards learned of her mental
situation, and sent her to one of the
charitable institutions of the city.
