A Big Bore with a Little Bit.

That was a very important and in
teresting case which occupied the at
tention of Chief Justice Sperra nearly
the whole of Friday last. 1t was all
about bit valued at from 40 to 70
cents, which Lucius Rhodenbaugh
claimed that Charles Slaughter had
stolen from him few weeks previous.
1t seems that Rhodenbaugh and
Slaughter had been working together
at the carpenter and joiner business
during the summer, but of late the
relations between them haye not been
of a very amicable nature. A few
weeks ago, Slaughter, missing some of
his tools, went to the premises of
Rhodenbaugh in search of them, and
while there, came across the aforesaid
bit. Having occasion to use the tool
Immediately, he took it and neglected
to return it. Rodenbaugh, finding it
absent, obtained a search-warrant, and
the bit was found on the premises of
Slaughter, who was thereupoD arrest
ed for stealing it. Three lawyers en-
gagged in the trial, and score or more
of witnesses were called. The defend
ant did not deny the possession of the
bit, but claimed that he had no inten-
tion of stealing the tool. He also in
troduced q number Of witnesses to
establish his good character and repu-
tation, which the Attorney for the
prosecution said he was willing to adj
NIT was unimpeachable. When the
case had been argued by the Attor-
neys, the Court took it under consid-
Grafton, and after several hours of
mind-racking bestowed upon it. rem
dered his decision, acquitting the de-
fendant. And now there is quite 9
snug little bill of costs for somebody
to pay. Verify, what q great fire a
little spark kindleth.

Included in the list of cases tried yester-

was that of John Reilly, an Irshman, against
Charles Francis, a young printer, formerly
employed in the Methodist Book
Concern, whom REILLY accused of
assault and battery. Reilly has a
daughter named Annie, aged 16, who is
a nursery maid in Seventh avenue family.
During the summer the girl has frequently
taken her young charges to Madison square
park. Francis, being out of employment,
has been in the habit of spending the sultry
hours in the same place, and it was there
that the two formed an acquaintance which
wandering through the square one day, es-
of the shade trees. He upbraided
the girl, and menacingly told Francis TO
"git." The young printer, though loath to
leave his lady love, nevertheless complied
with the ungenerous command. On Monday
last the irate father again sauntered through
the park and discovered the youth and maid
en- again sitting together, surrounded by
three little children belonging to the Seventh
avenue family. Francis held a fragrant CT
gar between his fingers, and was playfully
putting mouthful of smoke into the sleeve
of one of the little ones. Reilly, bursting
with Indignation, told him to leave
the child alone-and to 'git.'' Francis
demonstrated against such unkind
treatment from Annie's father, who there
upon called him bad names. The two
then engaged in fight, and Reilly was van
pushed. He caused the arrest of Francis,
who was held to await trial. Annie testified
in behalf of her lover, swearing that her
father was the aggressor. The court found
the young printer not guilty, and he was dis
charged. He left the courtroom accompa-

party reached the vestibule, Reilly attempted

before recommending any penalties on mer-
chants who do not furnish statistics of out
going eargoes. Recollect, said be- that JAYNE

within sixty days, and 1 tell you that
Jayne and such men would be glad
to see You revive penalties. l would strenu-
ously oppose the revival of the moiety system
with that infamous Jayne still alive Collector
Merritt then made few remarks, stating that
the number of inspectors in the service was
about the same as in 1885, and no reduction
could be made in the department and leave it
efficient.
