Years after, when Holt had become lord
chief Justice, q woman wrs tried before
him for witchcraft.
Part Of the evidence against her was the
possession Of the very smulet which the
Judge many years previously had himself

The woman turned out to be Hollis hos

PROF. CLEVELAND's PLANS.
His New Scheme for Rea utifying
Summit Avenue boulevard Fa-

ored by the Park Commission.
The park commissioners met yester
day afternoon in the chamber of COM
merce, with Pre- sident Van Slyke in the
chair. On motion of Representative
Stevens, the usual preliminaries were
waived for the purpose of hearing the
report of Prof. Cleveland regarding de-
signs he has formulated. by order of the
board, for the identifying of Summit
avenue boulevard. Prof. Cleveland eX-
hibited plans by which it was proposed
to alter the original idea of a straight
driveway the full length of the boule-
ward with a center enclosure Of flower
beds and shrubbery. He thought that
more varied and pleasing effect would
be secured by making the drive of a
serpentine character, the center
to be dotted at intervals with
flower beds, and the whole width of the
drive left open in spaces. Regarding
the planting of trees the full length of
too late to make any such attempt this
season. A few ev ergreenS might be set
out, but nothing further at this late
date. Com missioner Ludden thought
the idea of laying out the drive in vari-
ouSly designed blocks a good one, and
asked If provision could not be made
for the planting of several hundred
trees at once, so that the design could
be made apparent. Prof. Cleveland be-
lieved that could be done if proceeded
with without delay. A resolution was
adopted instructing Commissioner Esta-
brook to see to it that two or three
blocks are laid out Immediately at the
east end of the boulevard, according to
tho ,l1anc NV prof ClauaIand ba hInalye
to be protected by wire fenc-
ported that the Como appropria-
ton is exhausted, and that from $4,000
to $4,000 will be necessary to carry on
the work now on hand. The money is
needed for drives and walks, as well as
for the completion of work now par
TALLY finished. A resolution was adopted
authorizing Commissioner Estabrook to
proceed with the work he has Oh hand.
A communication from the aggrieved
Dayton's buffers was read, setting
forth that monster petition was in
board. Representa- tive Stevens said
there had been doubts as to the validity
of the organization of the commission,
which it was not quite settled had been
removed by the recent legislation to
that end. He moved the appointment
of committee of four to look into the
matter and establish beyond peradvent-
ture the legality of the organization. If
the boards legally organized, the fact
should be made plain; if not, steps
should at once be taken to organize
under the new law, and no business
transacted pending such organization.
A committee was appointed, consisting
of Messrs. Stevens, Newell and Hen
Erickson, to examine all acts relating to
the board, and report at a meeting to
be called by the secretary. The meet
ing then adjourned.

WORK FOR THE JUDGES.
The Calendar for the May Term
the Largest Ever Issued.

The Calendar for the May Term
the Largest Ever Issued.
Thursday was one of the busiest days
in the district court experienced for
long time. Yesterday was correspond
ingly dull, and the hustle and hurry
which characterized the last day for the
filing of issues for the May calendar,
resolved into slow. monotonous grind.
None of the judges held court, Judge
Wilkin taking the case of the City
against the Burlington Road under
consideration. In the clerks office the
work of compiling the May calendar
was almost finished and put in shape
for the printer. The calendar is by far
the largest ever issued by the district
court. There are 541 civil and 125 GRIM
lnal cases. of the former, 306 are
jury and 235 court cases, making a total
number of civil and criminal cases of
666. Last year at this time the calendar
contained 453 cases, and the calendar
for the January term this year 400. The
terms are now only one month long.
and with a calendar so much larger
than any of the previous three-month
terms, it is matter of remark how the
judges will have to hustle to dispose of
this great grist Of litigation. No one
will doubt that some of the cases on the
May calendar will be there next fall,
having lived by continuance in the in
terval.
The court rooms in the new court
house are being cleaned and put in
shape for occupancy by the judges
on May 6. Yesterday after
noon Judges Wilkin, Kelly, Brill,
Villas and Kerr again inspected
the court rooms in the new building and
the latest innovation in the arrange
ment of the furniture and fixtures in
the rooms. The jury box, in one of the
main court chambers, is on one side of
the room and the jury room snugly
hidden away on the other. The con-
Quoting of the jury to its room, after
trial. becomes an expedition from east
to west through sea of spectators and
a labyrinth of winding halls and dark
avenues. The judges thought they
would be compelled to call the May
calendar in the council chamber,
the court rooms being entirely
too small. This is the first
