CornLee 4. Acquitted.

SPNGFIELD, Mo-, JAM 2S.-The
celebrated trial of Cora Z. Lee on charge
of numbering Sarah Graham closed here
this evening. The jury was out just ten
minutes and returned with verdict of mot
guilty." There was no particular sensa-
ton in the courtroom when the verdict
was announced. The defendant, when re.
ceiviDg congratulations, gave way to her
feelings in copius tears. The case of Mrs,
Emma Malloy, the evangelist, indicted as
accessory before the fact to the bigamous
marriage of CoraLee and GeorgeE. Graham
has been taken on change of venue to
Ozark, where she will be tried at the next
term Of the Circuit Court
Mrs. Sarah z. Graham was murdered in
September, 1856. She threatened to expose
her husband, George Graham, for having
committed bigamy, and Graham endeayored
to compel her to keep from telling the story
of his misdeeds. Mrs Graham left Indiana
for Missouri to expose her husband. She
met Graham. who told her that if she wished
to track him further she would have to dc
it over road five miles long. She followed
him, and was never seen alive again. Her
dead body was found near a well on Mrs.
Malloy's farm few day after.

Neal Dow on prohibition.

PORTLAND, Me, Feb. 2.-Gener:l
Neal Dow, in an Interview yesterday with a
New York World correspondent, talked OF
the third party and its influence in the CON-
ing campaign. General Dow said he thought
the Republican party everywhere was as
thoroughly committed to the liquor interest
as the Democratic. He thought Cleveland S
message has given the Republicans a chance
for success, for it affords them an oppOr-
tunity to argue that the protection Of home
industries will be really the issue in the
presidential campaign, and in that way
mislead great many temperance men.
He thought the prohibition vote would be
greatly increased at the next presidential
election, and that the third party would
poll 5000 votes in New York. The Repub-
Iicans could not carry that state. The Pro
hibitionists would concentrate their efforts
in New York and do come work in Ohio.
General Fisk of New jersey would be their
standard-bearer.
Being asked as to his opinion of Blaine,
General Dow replied: "Mr. Blaine is Per
sonally a temperance man and a Prohibi-
zionist. l voted for him in 1854. thinking
that II he would be elected the Republican
party would recover the confidence and re-
spect of the country. l shall not vote for
him in the coming election. 1t is no longer
question OF candidates, for the reason
that prohibition cannot win in the lifetime
of the Republican party.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.-In response
10 request from the Committee on
Agriculture and Forestry missioner
Coleman has written letter to Senator
Palmer, chairman Of the committee. setting
forth his vie ws with regard to the suppress
sion Of pleuro-pneumonia. He reviews at
some length the history and method OF the
work of the Bureau OF Animal Industry
ard says that Congress should clearly nm
derstand that this method OF work j. abso-
luteIy essential to wips out disease, any
law which falls short In aay one particular
will fall of its purpose and the money cx-
pended under It will be thiown away"
The Commissioner expresses the belief
that the plan of state co operation is prefer
ableto one which relies solely upon Ma
tional authority, and says that the work of
extirp stirg p!caro-paeunnnia, which is
now being done by the Bureau of Animal
Industry, is going on smoothly, harmohi-
ously aud effectively by means of state CO.
operation. He thinks that this work should
be continued upon the same lines where 1t
is now moving. and that 1t will be unfor-
tunate and ill-advised If any new and un-
tried plan be adopted.

DR.. McGIynn on the Pope.

NEW YORK, Jan. 30.-Dr. McGlynn,

The Hammock and the Swing.

A writer in The Chicago News gives
Ne result Of an experiment, showing that
he instinct OF children has in it, not only
dove for recreation Of a choice sort, but
axanitary common sense. A number Of
swings were suspended at a summer
home for children; and near by were slung
two dozen hammocks. The latter were
almost always full, but the swings rarely
were in Use. The hammock is the most
,atural invention to give perfect rest and
sase to the whole body, with a delicious
ense Of motion and activity. Every
Asme should have several hammocks
swung under trees, for the use Of both
adults and children. 1t will tend greatly

and so sweeten the intercourse Of its
