A Strategic Criminal Lawyer.

Lawyer Forest, the leader of the coun.
sci for the defense in the Cronin trial,
Is, doubtless, the most strategic criminal
lawyer in Chicago. At one time he was
retained to defend a prisoner charged
with highway robbery. The case was
in police justice court. The defense
was an al;bi, and nine witnesses, one by
one, stepped up and swore that the ac-
cused, at the time the alleged robbery
took place, was basking amid the refined
delights Of dog fight, three miles away
from the scene of the robbery. The
prisoner was discharged, but one by one
as these witnesses stepped down from
the stand they were ''pinchcd" by a
stern-faced minion of Chicago law and
booked for The crime of participating IN
a dog fight. This result had quite evil
dently been foreseen by Mr.. Forest, and
be appeared even hilarious at the turn
of affairs. He demanded change OF
venue and an immediate trial. The nine
were arraiencd, pleaded rot guilty, and
in ali the wide wastes Of Chicago not a
witness was to be found against them.

The Nears some weeks ago gave the
history of lot of silver plate, valued at
S35, 900 that was buried near country
graveyard, twelve miles from Chester,
S. c., by an officer in Sherman's army:
The story will probably be remembered
by our readers. There did not appear
to be anything crooked about it, as the
narrative of the Federal officer, into
whose hands the secret was entrusted,
would show. He wrote to party IN
Charlotte, giving a full history of the
case, and urging the Charlotte man to
join him in the search for the hidden
treasure. The thing leaked out and the
Ne,cS got hold of it. The Charlotte man
declined to go into the enterprise, but
others who saw the things described in
the Nems jumped al it. For several
weeks past a party of three Charlotte
men have been turning up the soil near
Chester, hunting for the hidden trea-
sure. The party is headed by Mr.. Alex
ander, who lives near Charlotte. They
have dug pits until the whole country
about Chester looks like a field Of ant
hills. So far as heard from they
have not succeeded in unearthing the
treasure. The searching party has made
an offer to certain landown ners in the
vicinity to prospect their land for gold

Touching Story OF Mother Stricken
With Blindness.

A touching incident was that of Mrs.
William Nichols, brilliant and much
admired lady of Bath Beach, who had
been suffering for some time from an
affection of the eyes, says the Brooklyn
Citizen. She was led to fear speedy
change for the worst, and Immediately
consulted her physician. An exaInina-
ton discovered sudden and fatal fail
ing in the optic nerve, and the informa-
ton was impaired as gently as possible
that the patient could not retain her
sight more than a few days at most,
and was liable to be totally deprived of
it at any moment Last Tuesday the
afflicted mother quietly made such ar
ransements rs would occur to one about
to commence so dark journey Of life,
and then had her two children, attired
in their brightest and sweetest costumes,
brought before her, and so, with their
little faces lifted to hers, and tears
gathering for some great misfortune
they hardly realized, the light faded
out of their mothers eyes, leaving an
ineffaceable picture of those dearest to
her on earth-a memory OF the bright
faces that will console her in many a
dark hour.

You pity me, my friend, IN TINS strange ana
So N ny hundred leagues across the SEA,
Far from the clasp of any friendly hand
and light OF eyes that once have smiled or
me.
Yet even here the yellow sunset splendor
Lingers as fondly Oil these foreign trees,
That reach up sxyward, dark and straight
and slender,
With soft, faiut signs for every passing breeze
I find the same dear stars az night above ME-
In their accustomed places IN the waste oi
blue,
And fancy, as of old, that those who love me
Are thinking Of me- still with hearts as
true.
The feeting, perfect glory Of the sunset skies
Brings back host OF memories 10 soften,
And tears unbidGen to my unwilling eyes.
Remembering silent voices once heard
often
The pale blue morning glory round which
hovers
The romance aad the freshness OF my youth,
Smiles up at me with eyes Of real lovers
Eyes fnH Of innocence and truth.
The distant sail across the world of waters:
A CLINT OF gold green marsh grass nearer
shore,
And am wrapped in dreams as sweet and
real
AS life was in those days that come no
more.
You see my friends are legion-can you pity
Me, now that you understand at last
How these, my comrades, in this queer cd
city,
Help me to live again the happy past?
Nsy, then-not ever homesick or forsaken.
With the bright blue sky at noon and stars
by night,
When dawn restores moro than the dark has
taken,
U herring in some new and fresh delight.

NINE TIES TO TIE BALE.

''Now, that is great, isn't it," cootin-
ued the buyer, when the clipping had
been returned.
This movement is not just started,
