They are supreme. Old fogies are not

heads are respected, but in every day life
they are showed aside. Among o hun.

only three or four have passed their
thirty.fifth year. AL the leading lines
of business and all the professions are
controlled by young men. They do
more work and do it quicker than the

work all their lives: Perhaps the obiec-

from the testimony. and upon the conclusion
Mr. Gordon opened the argument on behalf of
the prisoner. When he had explained
the case fully the court called upon
Solicitor BENJAMIN Hill to show why
the motion for a new trial should not
be granted. NJ. Hill made an argument, and
upon the conclusion of his effort the Court
stated that the showing made by the counsel
for the prisoner was such that, In their Opin-
ion, 4 new trial should be given MOrrell, and
that their opinion in the case would take that
shape. MOrrel Is prominently connected ia

History of the Charity Which Mr.. Cleve-
land Assisted SO Much to InRugurate.
BUFFALO, Jan. 1O.-The grand charity ball
last night was a great success. President
elect Cleveland was present and added a great
deal to the success of the entertainment. The
following is the history of the charity for the
benefit of which the ball was given:
Several years ago an old gentleman named
Ben amin Fitch appropriated a portion of his
great wealth for the purpose of establishing at
Buffa o what is now known as the Fitch crecbe
a novel kind OF charitable institution. The
old philantbrOpist had observed that poor
doWs encum red by young children. and
wives woo were mothers aud had to work to
support th3lr Idmilles, were often compelled
to suffer for want of food and clothing be-
caue they could not so out to work
and take their children with them. This is
not as it should be-" said the phiiapthrOPhIst;
''there might be an inst tuition in This city,
and in every other city, to which these moth
ers could take their children in the morning
as they 90 10 their WORK, and from " hich they
couid get their little cues in The evening as
they return from the = WOrk-an institution
that would ten icrly care Tor the little ones
wrlie their mothers we're absent working for
bread aud Othlng. / VII establish an lnsti-
tulion Of that kiad i'm Buffalo" And he did.
White Mr.. Fiich was estabi ishipg this benev-
"lent institution lie boarded at the same
hotel at which GOV. Cleveland then
boarded, at BuTa'o. They a'e at She
same table together. and became
well acquainted WITH eac other. As the ac-

At every meal he poIred into The ear OF his
friend his troubles and his Tears. until at last
his C mi ience became annoying because so
constant and persistent. But" said Gov
Cleveland, ''ihe annoyance, being in the in
tcrest of cnarty. was pleasant annov2nce
if, indeed, any kind of annoyance can be said
t. be pleasant" When at last the fOunda.
