An application Of cloths wrung out OF

the subjec, replete with thought,
argument and touching pathos. lie

not necessarily meant total abstcnancc
from food. but that it meant that for
the time of fasting the wants and
necessities even of the body should be
subordinated to those of the soul.
Rev. Mr.. Riggs, of the Presbyterian
church, north, being present, was in
vited into the pulpit by DIR. Smith and

Justice Kendall.

This morning Justice Kendall tried
and acquitted Felix Brigham on d
charge of making threats. Yesterday
afternoon he fined Mary Beavers 81
with the trimmings for disturbing the
peace.
The case of the State VS.. Charles
Weinberger, charged with assault and
battery, was also tried yesterday after
noon before a jury, which resulted in
mistrial. The evidence showed that
he did whip his brother Frank, who
is 10 years old, and had done so on
more occasions than one, but it was at
the request of their mother, and be-
cause the youth chewed tobacco and
went to variety shows; and, as the
castigations were for the boys good,
some of the jury were unwilling to
punish him.
