into sweet flowers that shed their petals
on his grave. Ranged about his tomb
In concentric circles sleep other brave
hearts that beat their lives out in battle
for their country. Towering in its car
ven beauty TO the summer skies stands
near his tomb the monument erected by
the State TO the memory of the Ken
tuckians who were killed in the Mexican
war. O'Hara wrote 1.-THE Bivouac of
the Dead" TO these defenders of the ma
ton. 1t Is very probable that it was
written iir the cemetery, and that the
poet found in that beautiful retreat the
inspiration necessary for his work. The
poem was written in August, 1877, but
appears in the Louisville Courier, Sun
day. June "a, 1860, with the introduce
ton:

Kentuckians who fell ut Buena Vista,

Mr. O'Hara was born in Danville, KY,
February II, 1920. He was the son OF
Kane O'Hara, an Irish political exile
who was noted for his pety and learn
ing. Theodore was lawyer, and i.
his youth study was his passion. At
the beginning Of the late war ms heart
swelIed with sympathy for the people
he had always loved so well, and his
sword was at once unsheatled in defense
OF the south. lie was chief OF staff to
Gen. John G. Breckenridge. At the close
Of the war he went TO Columbus, Ca.
and engaged in the cotton business, but
misfortune seemed TO follow him and
he lost his all by fire. He died Friday,
June 9, 1867, OF bilious fever, and was
buried at Columbus. but his remains
were, in 1874, taken TO Frankfort, KY,
in accordance with resolution OF the
State legislature, and reinterred with
appropriate ceremonies in the State
cemetery.
O'Iiara never married. In personal
appearance he was strikingly handsome.
He was not quite six feet in height,
very graceful and erect in his carriage,
and scrupulously neat in his dress.

GETS FIFTEEN YEARS
One Kcntuckian Who Ovcrstepped
the Safe Limit.

After being out twenty-five hours
the jury in the Judge Puliiam murder
case, at Bradenburg, Ky, returned a
verdict of manslaughter, and fixed the
punishment at Is years in the penti-
Tertiary. The verdict is not only sur
prise but disappointment as well.
Pulliam's lawyers expected an acquittal
under the unwritten law, while the
prosecution was confident Of death
sentence. The trial lasted ten days,
and was probably the most sensational
ever held in Kentucky. j. M. Pulliam,
who was county Judge of Breckenridge,
invited james Miller, q wealthy stock
raiser, into his Office at Hardinsburg
one morning in July, 1888, and after
few moments shot him to death. Pull
liam charged that Miller had debauch-
ed his wife. On Pulliam's Office table,
however, YVES found paper, written
by himself, demanding $4,000 of Mil
Ter on penalty of death. This money,
Pulliam says he intended to use in TAX
ing his family away from the scene Of
their disgrace. Miller refused to pay
1t and Pulliam killed him. For killing
the seducer of his wife the jury would
have acquitted him, but the demand
for money looked too much like a bar
ter and sale of honor, and the verdict
vas against the accused.

STRIKING THEIR TENTS.
The Closing Hours of the National
Encampment.

The closing session Of the National
Encampment of the Grand Army was
called to order at 8 O'clock on the
morning of the Both, and continued
for tour hours with closed doors.
Among other important business transs
acted was the adoption of q resolution
reatfirming the action OF the Twenty
second National Encampment upon the
subject of necessary pension legislation
in Congress, and instructing the pen
sion committee to pursue all proper
means to secure legislation. The prin-
cipal debate of the day was had over a
resolution TO deprive past department
commanders of the right to vote at the
National Encampment. Afler a noisy
discussion the resolution was defeated.
A proposition TO admit to qualified
membership the eldest sons of veter-
ans without, however, the right to
vote or wear badge, was rejected.
After passing upon resolutions Of
thanks to all who had placed the en-
campmcnt under obligations to them,
Commander Warner delivered his
closing address. On retiring from the
chair the newly elected officers were
then installed and the encampmcnt ad-
journed.
The visitors have left the city in
large numbers and tho streets have a
deserted look.

ministration was announced. Among

the pickets, and everything wore Sab

Coryell had nothing TO do and was out

the question. Finally n handsome young
officer from the Confederate side strolled
out between the lines. Coryell hailed
him ut once:

Come along, I'll treat you right"
"How do know that I'll not be taken

Coryell thought II moment and then
decided TO make the venture. He laid
aside his sword and belt and started
across the high and narrow dixie leading
to the Confederate line. On either side
OF the dixie the water in the rice fields
was five feet deep.
The lieutenant reached tho opposite
shore without any msgiyings. The
Confederate produced some tobacco,
and trade was made in no time.
Then the two fell into n pleasant con

Suddenly Coryel saw n signal nutter

The fugitive walked rapidly onward

A CASE OF INTEREST.
An Iowa Justice Who Refuses to Per.
q. form the Functions OF His Office.

An important decision has been ren.
dered by Attorney-Gencral John Y.
Stone. The Holtberg-Burritt case at
Mason City has already assumed con-
siderable prominence. The former
was charged with selling liquor to the
latter contrary to law OF the State,
and was arraigncd before Judge John
S. Stanbury. Two trials followed,
both resulting in disagreement OF
the jury. Defendant then asked for n
change of venue, and the case was sent
to the nearest justice outside the city,
who, in the judgment of the Judge, was
Richard Long. Long refused to take the
case, claiming he was nota justice. lie
was elected in 1886, and again in 1883,
but refused TO qualify, County Attor-
ney Clark wrote the attorney general,
who in return replied that he did not
entertain any doubt That IL he still
continues in possession Of the Office,
owing TO his election and qualification
in 1886, he is dcfacto justice OF the
peace, and any judicial act on his part
would be valid and binding. "In fact"
says he, ait is difficult to see why he
is not the justice in legal right since
under the statute he should continue
to perform in the duties Of the oIice
until his successor was elected and
qualified. II he is the justice, either
in fact or in right, he. can take juris-
diction OF case sent TO him on change
OF venue. Tho first justice would
certainly retain jurisdiction OF the
cause until some other justice acquired
il. and in this view could make such
order rs the interests OF the case law
fully required. Blu, II ! should be mis-
taken in this view and another justice
would lose Jurisdiction OF the case it
could be started over again and pro-
ceeded as II it had never been previ-
ously instituted. There having been
no verdict or judgment, defendant
could not claim any prior adjudication
Of former jeopardy"
Notwithstanding this opinion from
the Attorney General, Long refuses TO
hear the case. There is talk Of urging
the matter before the grand jury, As
leading attorneys are OF the opinion
that 1t is an indictablc offense.
