owe Are Going to rut Him In"

Yesterday William Bailey was on trial in
Justice James court on the charge of com.
mittng an assault upon Mrs. Laura Dickcy OF
Uuiontown, D. G., in Jnly last. Tho evidence
showed that Mr.. Bailey who is au old man,
was passing Mrs. Dickcy's house and got into
trouble with her dogs, which brought tho
woman into tho fight The defendant is
quite eccentric, and his peculiar style of tes-
Cifying was very amusing, and the following
closing of his evidence filed the court with
roars Of laughter:
Mr. Cdhll (his counsel Are you deaf2
Witncss-Ycs. l got crack on tho head
by one of Stonewall Jackson's men during the
war and have been deaf ever since.
Mr.. Cahill-You are an old soldier, thcn2
Wtness-Yes; l am a Garfield man, too
and we are going to put hiM in.
Mr.. Cahill-That will do; come down from
the stand.
Mr.. Perry-Yes; but that does not settle the
case.
When order was restored the trial proceed.
ed, and it was pretty fully shown that the old
man was beset by three dogs and woman.
To defend himself under such circumstances
the jury evidently considered that he accom-.
plishel pretty good task, and they acquitted
him of committing any assault

THE CoRCORAW MARKET SQUARE.
A Hearing In tho Case OF rhyson Against
the District.


The case of William Frank Thyson against
the commissioners Of this District came up be-
fore Justice Cox, sitting In equity, yesterday
MeSsrs Davdge, Cook aud Bond appeared for
tho plaintiff aud Messrs. Miller aud Mcloy for
the defendants. Tho plaintiff Is tho owner OF
the hotel aud stabling az tho corner of Sovonth
and L streets northwest, opposite the Corcoran
square This square is owned by tho District
of Columbia, aud was purchased FROM MIR.
w w. COrcoran, as IL is claimed, for the ex-
press purpose of erecting a market thereon,
| and, with view Of carrying out the project,
| market stock" to the extent of 100000 was
authorized by the District legislature. After
| the purchase Of the ground temporary stalls
aud structures wero placed on the southern
part Of tho square. Plans were prepared
| for tho construction of market-house
along Seventh and p streets, the ground was
graded and a contract entered into with
Thomas LOWS for the erection Of tho building
and foundation laid. The work WAS aban-
| doued in 1872 without any progress being
made beyond the securing Of the foundation.
Within the last year the commissioners have
decided TO erect school.housc on part OF
the P.street side of the square. Proposals
were invited, bids received aud opened, and
| the contract awarded to J. II. Hewlett. At
this juncture Mr.. Thyson stopped up aud said
\ that the ground was purchased specially for
market-house purposes, and all the legislation
| VI relation thereto would show such 10 De tho
fact; that the city was spreading in that sec
tion, the population increasing aud all Of the
ground would in little while be required for
market He therefore prayed an injunction
against tine commissioners to prevent tho
erection Of the school building and diverting
tho square from the uses for which it was in
tended when purchased.
In answering, tho commissioners denied
that Mr.. Thyson would be injured in any man
ner by the erection of the school building, or
| that the whole square was needed for market
purposes, and cited the existence Of two other
markets lying adjacent to this one as an ac-
commodatiom to the public. They claim that
the District has tho right to use its own prop.
erty for its own purposes, and in selecting a
a cite for one of tho school buildings upon this
ground they exercise the discretion conferred
| upon them by congress, and at the same time
save the District from purchasing other land.
| They also claim that it is better to use this
| ground than permit it to remain unoccupied
and useless. At tho same time they think
that the money not thus expended could be
used in erecting suitable school buildings,
| Further, they state that many citizens ofthat
school district have requested that the land
be used for public school.
Mr.. Cook opened the argument, and had not
concluded when the court adjourned.

performance last night was one which fully
satisfied ths audience and the frequent cncores
showed how well they were pleased. All the

tive may be mentioned tho oporatc selections
of Miss Nellie Larkelle, the gymnastic per-
formance of the Morello brothers. the saxo.

the musical entertainment of Messrs. Wood

Iron Gate" for his suhjsct-Acts, 18th chapter,
10th verse, And it opened of its own accord"
for Peter and his angel guide, showing that
many iron gates lio athwart our pathway in
life, the heavily-bolted gates of prejudice,
pride, unbelief and self.righteousness. And
they are only opened by prayer aud the faith
of which Luther speaks when he likens it to
the trust STIFFNESS Of the little bird, "who, perch.
ing upon some overhanging twig, tucks its
head under its wings and goes to sleep with
God to care for IT, The doctor showed how
the prayer may be prolonged how Christ in
tended to help the woman OF Canaan, but with
three distinct discouragements before he pro-
claimed her success in prayer, saying "Oh,
woman! great is thy faith" So, oft-timas
mans extremity is Gods opportunity" lie
permits us to pray without censing and con.
tinually so, while the blessings come tardily Y,
but quite rs soon as wo are properly prepared
like the woman to appreciate them. So the
iron gate may not open until just as we are
ready to pass through, us tho Apostle Peter
saw not the open gate, but by faith passed on
TO it. So tho Israelitcs came to the very brink
OF the Red sea before the waters stood TO right
and left In CONCEALED heaps. So, also, the
priests dipped their feet in the water of the
river Jordan, bearing tho ark of tho covenant
before the waters really parted for the tribes
of Israel to pass over to the promised land
These noble examples are given the church
of the present day as well as in early days
that by true abiding faith, faith in prayer as
well as work, all, aud more than all, might be
gained.
1t was an exceedingly impressive sermon
aud well repaid the hearers on warm Sab
