coNKLTNG AND SARGENT.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-Everybody has
been engaged all day in asking everybody
else whether or not Conkling will serve
The answer is very general in the negative
Certain it is that no information has leaked
out even if Conkling has been heard from
on the subject, and many doubt that he
will move hand in the matter. While
therefore there is doubt about Conkling,
there is none about Sargent, who had a
talk with the President in regard to his ap
pointment this afternoon Sargent will
accept, though he declines to make any
public statement on the matter The i'm
preston grows that Kirkwood
will remain in the Cabinet
until the end of the fiscal year. Hoar
opposes Conkling because he opposed
Hoar's brother when he was nominated
for similar place. He makes no secret oi
it and says the opposition will be very
slight when the case comes up for confirm
alton. The Senate Judiciary Committee
agreed to report on him fayorably. A sim
liar report viii be made on Sargent

GOOD Coffee.

Everybody wants 1t, but very few get 1t,

select coffee, or 1t is spoiled in the roasting
or making. To obviate these difficulties

derstands the art of blending various fla
vors. They are roasted in the most perfect
manner lit is impossible to roast we'll In

ages (il the bean, moi grOu,d,) bearing our
signature as a guarantee OF genuineness,
and each package contains the Thurber
recipe for making good Coffee. We pack
two kinds. Thurber's "No. a." strong
and pungent; Thurber's "No. A." mild
and rich. One or the other will suit every
taste. They have the three great points,
good quality, honest quantity, reasonable
price. Ask your Grocer for Tt,rber's

other kind-your own palate will tell you
what is best.

Court of Common Pleas.


State of Ohio VS.. Abram Rowland
Indictment for assault and battery.
This was the celebrated mouse case.
The first witness was George Row
land. Witness stated that defendant
is his father. The family generally
kept a mouse trap set. One night
about eight o'clock a mouse was
caught in the trap, and laid up on a
shelf. Next morning his father skin
ned and dressed the mouse, and his
step-mother cooked it, and his father
presented it on fork, and told him
to eat it. He refused, when his father
whipped him with large water-bireh
rod. He then pulled a couple Of pieces
Of flesh from the thigh Of the mouse
and swallowed it. He then went out
and thinks he vom1ted up portion or
all Of it. Being asked why he was
compelled to eat the mouse, he said he
was unfortunately afflicted with the
habit Of wetting the bed during sleep
and he could not help it. His father
had been told that eating mouse
would cure this habit. When his
father had worn out two-thirds of
the rod whipping him, he went out
and got three more rods, and said he
would whip him till the blood ran on
the floor, unless he ate the mouse.
David Clark was passing Rowland s
house about the time named in the
Indictment, and heard in Rowland's S
house talk that he supposed to be
some kind Of family row. He recog-
mixed defendants voice, and heard him
swear.
Defense called DR.. Ewing. who tes-
titled that the boys trouble was dis
ease and not habit.
Defendant took the witness stand
and testified that he had been inform
ed, and believed, that eating mouse
would cure his son, and he did it for
the boys good.
The case was argued for the State
by E. C. Powell, Prosecuting Attor-
ney, and for the defense by Ambrose
Leach, jr.
The Court, in the charge, laid down
the we'll settled principles of the law
as to parent and child. and then said
that this case was peculiar in some
respects. If a parent required child
to do an unreasonable or cruel act
and the child refused, and for that re-
fusal the parent whipped the child, ii
would be assault and battery. Ii one
person had complete control over an
other, and by threats compelled that
person to do an act which was an in
Jury to himself, it would be assault
and battery, although the assaulted
party had not been touched.
Verdict guilty. Fine $50 and costs
and ordered to stand committed te
iail until fine and costs be paid.

witness went home he remembered
that he had forgot to mention some
rent which Campbell owed him
Shortly afterwards he overlook Camp
bell on the street and mentioned the
matter to him. Campbell refused to
nav, and said he had settled, and he
did not owe him anything, and did
not want him to say any more about
it. Swanson repeated that he owed
him. Campbell then pick d up a
piece of cinder and threw it, hitting
