THE RENAULT CASE.
He is.Found Guilty of a Simple As
sault.

sault.
Yesterday afternoon late the case of B.
Renault, charged with an assault to kill
the Sheriff, was given to the jury. After
discussing the matter for a few hours,
they brought in verdict of simple as
sault. The verdict is queer one. Either
Rsnault did nothing at all or he shot the
Sheriff. There was no other form of as
sault charged, nor was there the least
bit of testimony to show that any other
form of assault was committed. Shoot
ing is not simple assault. and that is
why people think the verdict queer.

He Had a "Dryo Sunday.

not known, but 1t was strong enough TO in

over his bright prospects of enjoying himself
on Sunday. lac started toward his home. He
stopped to see some friends before he went
home. He carefully laid aside his bundle con-
tanning the bottle. and while paying the visit
the bottle was empticd and filled with water
Next morning he had forgotten all about his
visit and reached for his bottle. from which he
poured an 'eye-opcner.' The liquid was

tasted the fluid and his suspicious were con-
frmed. 1t was water. Ii was with him dry

rain was falling in torrents. The next day he
called upon the saloon-keeper for an explana-
ton. The latter was of course ignorant Of
what had taken place and war Of words fol-

settled but 1t is safe to predict that that saloon
will be avoided in the future by the citizen
who had to go dry" because of the practical

A Story About Baltimore Girls.

From the Baltimore American.
One of the latest fads Of Baltimore girls is to
dress in black from head to foot. with veil and
gloves to match, and then, borrowing a neigh
boris child, show it around the city. OF course.
the natural supposition is that the child is not
borrowed, and that the young lady is a widow.
As a widow is generally supposed to be ready
TO recontract matrimOny. the sympathies OF the
susceptible young man are readily aroused.
first by curiosity TO how long the childs
father has been dead; then, what he died OF.
and since the widow seems 20 mourn for HIM,
how she must have cared for the dear departed
And, if she did care for him, why might she
not care also for another. and why might not
he be the fortunate individual, especially if the
first husband left cash enough for the support
of two three, the case might be. OF
course. when acquaintance follows, the appar-
ent widowhood can be easily and innocently
explained, and the desired happy result follow.

BRAINS IN DEMAND.
The Opportunities for Bright Young
Men to Get Rich.

From the New York Tribune.
Il hear good many young fellows" said an
old New York merchant recently. growing
nowadays that the chances to make fortune in
this city are all gone; that is, for men whose
only capital is their brains. They look around
at the great business houses already estab-
lished and consider the fierce competition in
every branch of trade and their hearts fail
them. The truth is. that there never were
such chances to make money as now for young
men OF real ability in this city. 1t is hard
place, of course, for men of mere average tai
ent to get along In, but brains are needed here
as never before. Merchants who have built up
great trades and want to let up little in their
labors, must have smart men. to whom they can
safely entrust details. The complaint that the
bosses relatives put over the heads of
more deserving clerks is not true. That scheme
Is played out and will not work No wise man
will risk his business in the hands of an incom-
petent son or nephew if he can get better
and more faithful employee to attend to it. 1t
would pay him better to pension the relative.
These men get salaries that were unheard of in
my day, and although the prices of land have
risen greatly since then, the opportunities for
young fellow to secure a home of his own,
within easy reach of his business were never
better than they are i'll New York to-day

1t will be seen that each club has d home
day, that no two games are scheduled for the
same day. and that no club plays more than
twice in the same week and never twice in the
same week against the same club. Games
postponed for any cause will be PLAYED on a
day mutually agreed upon by the two inter-
ested clubs. 1t is believed that Mondays and
Tuesdays games will be played of tomorrow,
in addition to the scheduled game The club
winning the most games out of the series will
be the league champion for the season, and
will probably win a peunant.

sonal, was to be divided among his brothers
and sisters and their children.
The estate is not vet settled. and a new and
somewhat sensational development promises to
open up litigation and prolong the adjustment
OF the matter. Mrs. Potter bases her claim on
the statement that She niece of tLc de-

served notice on James J. Williams the eNecu-
tor of the estate. and asked him TO file an ac-
count. The account was filed early in January,
and il was shown that the estate was worth
about half million dollars. The executor
of Mr. simpsons estate contests the claim
solely on the ground that the claimant Ii the

contrary to expectation, there was no difficulty

The question of the indemnity to be paid by
the Samoans for the killing of Germans at Apia
by natives was not brought up. but was left to
the working committee. This action is taken
as an indication that the question can be solved
there. The next session of the conference will
