well as do. ycu would not pay any attention
to him. There are great many people that
think he is badly cranked socially, and have
no doubt that Mrs. Tilton told the truth and
that he lied about it, and | shall tell him so
publicly"
"Oh, we'll, well, prisoner, that will do for
you," said Mr.. Davidge.
Guiteau was apparently satisfied and nod
ded with a smile, saying "That's all right,
Judge, | have had my say on Beecher I'm
satisfied"
Gen. John A. Logan then took the stand
and was asked "Do you know the prisoner"
"Oh, yes, of course you do, Genera" broke
in Guiteau. "You know me very we'll. I'm
very happy to meet you again" ' r.
The witness had frequently been besieged
by Guiteau to endorse his application for
Office, but had invariably declined for the
reason that the prisoner did not seem to be
such man as he would care to recommend
for any office. He had never known him in
Chicago. The first time he ever saw him was
when he (Guiteau) called upon him to re-
ceive his influence. The general impression
be formed was that there was something
wrong in his mental arrangement.
Edmund E. Smith was employed at the
Republican National Committee room dur
ing the late Presidential campaign, and fre-
quently saw Guiteau hanging around the
rooms. He thought Guiteau was trying to
secure recognition from the committee, but
was confident he never received an assign.
ment to speak. The witness thought Gui-
teau very peculiar and Aighty and rambling
in his conversation. Guiteau here interject-
ed his customary comments: "This gentle.
man wasn't in position to know about mat
ters there. He was only clerk anyway.
Governor Jewell, ex-senator Dorsey and the
rest of us boys were the ones that did the work
there"

consisted Of declamations, songs, dia-
logues, ,tableaus etc. and was well rem

audience. Where there was such a
large number of students whose per-
formance of their parts entitled them
to praiseworthy mention We must for
bear to be partial in noticing a few
names when we have not the space
for all. There were quite a number
of visitors present from Huntsville,
among whom were several representa-

AMERICAN ENTERPRISE. :

No invention Of the nineteenth century
has worked greater revolution In house
hold economy or conferred more of ben
eft on humanity than the sewing machine.
The first productions were cru de and un-
couth in the extreme, and it was reserved
for American skill aud ingenuity to bring
forth a machine of any practical valne.
In order to appreciate the great advance
ment which has token place it is only nec-
essar; to compare one of the Dachines
built during the infancy of the invention
with one of the latest improved Light
Running New Home,' the rapidly increas-
ing popularity of which is the envy of all
its, competitors.
In the manufacture of this machine old
ideas have been discarded and ia accord
ance with the progressive movement, of the
age new mechanical principles have been
substituted of such inherent and absolute
value as cannot fail to commend themselv- :
es to the most casual observer.
For all kinds of domestic and manufact-
uring work the New Home is unequaled.
All the really good points contained in
other machines have been utilized in its
construction.
Many new Improvements and devices
have also been added, the result of which
il machine AS nearly perfect as it is pos
sible to make one.
For simplicity, durability, ease of man
agement and capacity for work the Light
Running New Home has no rival, and tue
happy posessor of one may rest assured
that he or she has the very best the world
affords.
All who send for the Cempany's new IL
