Our NeiGhbor.

Men see one phase of a person perhaps
strongly exhibited, and straightway
Judge him by that. They call him selfish
or cruel, or passionate and revepgetui,
or unjust or bieoted, as he then appears,
and suppose they have defined his char.
acter when they have seen but one phase
it. Perhaps, if they wait and watch,
they would see him Eating those very
faults in himself and weeping bitter tears
over them. certainly they would see
other and redeemable qualities. Or they
hear him uttering strong opinion upon
come proposed measure, some problem
Of the day, on some abstract idea, and at
once classify him according to their
limited notions. often most uujustly.
Another day he might, with equal sin-
cerity, show us another phase Ia his
mind which would turn all preconceived
notions of him upside down. As we
can never fathom our neigbbor, let us
not try to judge him on such defective
knowledge. Better still, let US not Judge
him at all, but welcome from him the
sincere expression OF Whatever com mands
our respect or wins our sympathy, In the
full faith that evtrJ thing true and good
must at last come Tito harmony.

The prosecutor said that he could
show that instead OF having p'enty OF
money Chslkley Le Coney was indebted
to Richard lie COMFY, his brother, at the
time OF the laiter's death. This in.
debtedness was contracted at the time OF
Chalkley's arrest, over fourteen years
ago. The case, which has been pending
ever since, was the charge OF Sarah
Stewart, brought sgainst him by the
Overseers Of ths Poor Of the township,
and tried before Just.ces Joseph Hsinee
and James 8. Henry. In Camden, In 1875,
In which the jury convicted bin OF her
chlid's paternity. The case was again
tried on an appeal before the same JUS
tices In 1876, with the same result.
IL was again appealed to the court,
Richard 8. Jenkins, his counsel, raising
the technical point that the decision OF
the Justices' court should contain the
signatures Of both jus: Ices before whom
II was tried before filing with the County
Clerk, whereas the name of only ono ap.
peared then, the name OF the other hay
ing been added thereafter. The coust
decided In favor OF the defendant.
Again the case was tried before Justices
Cassady and Cox, In Camden, on April
%, 1889, and again the jury convicted.
The defendant was ordered to pay EGO to
the woman and contribute b weekly
towards the support OF the child. Alfrei
Hugv, LIE Coney's counsel, then appealed
to the Supreme Court. The case was
put of from time to time aud was to
bave come up In the Supreme Court this
Fall.
Aaron Z. Burr, of Moorestown, county
detective, denies that he L. T. lated 10 any
way to the LIE Coney family. He also
says that he advised Lc Coney, who was
anxious 10 start for Ohio on Wednesday
with Annie's body, to walt III til after he
had given his testimony before the coro-
neI's jury.
Garrett Murray, Ls Couey's coiored

treated as such, and not as felon.
