THE COURTS.


Tho great attraction In the county court
This week was the trial of Aid. O'ConOr, of
La Sale, on the charge of bastardy. The
ease was fought hotiy by Bull aud Strawn for
O'Conor, and Brewer, Duncan, aud Hall Y
Frainor for the prosecution, during Tuesday
aud until Wednesday evening, when some
facts appeared that induced the counsel for
the defense 10 withdraw from the case. The
next morning O'Conor secured NJ. T. Molo
ney, who could do nothing further than to
agree that the jury might bring in verdict
sf guilty, (not entering plea Of guilty"
NJ some have it), BY this action witnesses
we're prevented from testifying, who would
not only have impeached O'Conor's testimo
ny, but have proven him an outright perjurer
The jury accordingly brought In verdict of
guilty, and Judge Gilbert passed the usual
sentence "A fine Of $3.50. Subsequently he
was placed under $1,000 bonds for the pay
ment OF the fne.
Before the verdict had been agreed to the
defendant tried to secure q continuance, pre-.
senting an affidavit in support thereof set
ting forth that at a certain time for the space
Vt nearly two months he had boarded in n
certain family In Peru, &c, and to tho facts
he his father aud his mother swore, in order
TO show that he could not have been guilty
Of the first charge. The prosecution had
witnesses present who were to prove that
DCunor had never so much as eaten meal
or slept In the Peru house once during the
stated time. Therein lay the charge of per.
jury, and on Thursday afternoon Judge Gil
bert heard this evidence, and caused o. Conor
10 be brought INTO court where he was con.
fronted with the charge. The court there
upon placed him under 80 600 bonds TO await
the action of the grand jury, which meets
next week. Yesterday afternoon O'Conor
secured the required bail and was IT..
leased. Our county judge evidently means
business and wants no false swearing In his
court.

Above OF A BONNET!

If there is any one thing which the
average specimen of femininity
adores, it is found, unquestionably,
found in the show-window of the
milliner. Square after square will
she walk seeking something new
and yet come away dissatiiied ; what
at first blush appears to BIO a bargain
crops out as worthless If our citi-
zens would secure their goods from
tirst-class houses only, they. would be
from % to so per cent. better off.

Nat Mckinney as a Prophet.

But there will be a contest in this
State that will doubtless be MEM
orable one, and our prediction is that
the Second District will furnish the
battle ground. Mr.. Mckenzie, we
learn, has announced his intention of
being candidate. Mr.. Clay, the
present member, is almost of a ne
cessity compelled to be. They are
both very fine speakers, and each can
boast of a host of warm personal and
influential friends. They have no
very great personal affection for each
other; are both good haters, and pos
sessed of ample capacity to attain a
higher degree of culture in that
branch of political philosophy. Clay
is impulsive, aggressive, and at times
rather dogmatical. Mckenzie is
cool, conservative and calculating.
The characteristics of each will be
prominently presented i'll the canvass
and Notwithstanding Mr.. Clay will
make strong appeal for an endorse
ment, we predict that Mckenzie will
not only get the advantage of him
on the stump, but defeat him for the
nomination.-Old Guard.

Minnie Hanks First Appearance
in Hcpki1sville.

Great interest Is felt in the fashion
able circles of our city in the first APP
pearancc here of Minnie Hauk. The
prima donna will be greeted April
30 by large fashionable audience.
Minnie lIauk's career is success
sion of artistic and social triumpbs,
which have been so frequently chron-
icled, that any further remarks re-
garding her high attainments and
her fame seem to be super1uous.
She will be seen ip one of the fifty
roles Of her extensive repertoire,
which is the largest of any operate
diva in the world, Patti singing only
%, and Nilsson % operas. Carmen
together with "Sclika, in "Atricaine,
Marguerite, Favorite, Zerlina," and
all the Wagnerian roles count among
her best characters. "Carmen" has
been composed for her, and given by
her in Brussels, Vienna, Berlin, Lon
don and New York. The music OF
"Carmen" is very beautiful and me-
lodious, although the part allotted to
Minnie Hauk is rather an acting than
singing one. 1t does not contain
any catching airs gallery GODS, like
the Bohemian Girl but the diff
Guilty Of the beautiful composition,
and their exceedingly fine and arts
tic rendering gained for Minnie
Hauk the brightest encomiums of the

Minnie Hanks costumes (there is
one for each one of the four acts) are
magnificent. Tie second and fourth
act costumes are those most admired
on account of their richness and Gle
gance.

A Narrow Escape.

Mr.. Floyd Giles, clever and we'll
to-do young farmer, Of Roaring
Springs, Trigg county, came very
near losing his life by drowning on
last Monday. lie had been to Lin
ton, and was returning home about
six O'Clock, and upon arriving at
Cadiz creek, a considerable stream,
found it swollen by the rains, but us
he was anxious to reach home, he
attempted to ford it with a four
horse wagon.
Mr.. Giles was riding one of the
mules, and as soon as the animals got
into the deep current he saw that the
situation was desperate one, and,
leaping over the Ofi-mule, he at
tempted to swim out, but was
washed like feather by the surging
torrent for three hundred yards
down the stream. He was first I'M
der and then above the water, and
vainly attempted to catch to roots
and bushes along the banks, and
when he finally succeeded in striking
a shallow place, where he could
wade out, he was almost exhausted.
AS soon as he reached the bank he
turned and saw his team close be-
hind. The two wheel-mules were
dead and one of the leaders was al
most drowned. He got the two live
ones out, and also saved part of his
wagon. The bed, his saddle, the
bolster and some other parts of his
wagon were washed away. Mr..
Giles sums up his losses at about
$3.50, the two mules drowned being
worth $3.50 each.
