Mr.. and Mrs. Calendula c. Rate were at
Niagara Falls on their wedding journey
They had wandered rapturously about
arm in arm, listening to the roar of the
mighty cataract. They had bought bead
worked moccasins and pincushions from
Indian squaws who spoke with a strong
Tipperary accent; they had contributed
handsomely to the support of several
princely hack drivers, paid for the right to
look at the falls from all the eligible points
of view, and had been hunted with great
success by prowling Photographic banditti.
And now they stood in the Cave of the
Winds
The thunder of Niagara overpowered
them. The earth trembled beneath them
They looked at each other, and their lips
moved, but if any sound came from theu
it could not be heard in the deafening roar
Calendula pressed the little hand that lay
confidingly on his arm, and led his fair
young bride from the cave with all possible
speed.

gained the open air, edo you know why
could not bear to linger in that horrible

THE CRONIN CASE.
Oefsndants' Attorneys File q Notion For .
New Trial-A Long List of Errors Al

Defendants Attorneys File VI otion For
New Trial-A Long List Of Errors Al
legged.
CHICAGO, Jan. 11.-Late yesterday
afternoon Attorneys Wing, Donahoe
and Forrest filed petition for a new
trial in the cases of Coughlin, Martin
Burke, p. O'Sullivan and John Kunze,
convicted of the murder of DR.. CrOnin,
in accordance with the order of Judge
Mcconnell, before whom the arguments
will be made Monday.
The petition assigns thirty-nine
cases of error in the rulings of Judge
Mcconnell during the case. They en-
brace every point contested by the
attorneys for the defense and
range from an objection to
the courts overruling the motion
to quash the indictments up to the as
sertion that the defense has, since the
trial, discovered new evidence which
entities them to new trial. The first
error alleged is that the court erred in
overruling the mo.ion to quash the in
dictment made in behalf of each of the
defendants. The denial of COughlin's
motion for separate trial is made the
basis of four of the alleged errors,
there being separate count for each
of the defendants. The refusal of the
court to permit the defense to show
that Messrs. Mills, Ingram and Hines
of the prosecution were engaged
by private parties who were actuated
by personal motives and the courts al
lowing these three lawyers to assist in
the prosecution are said to be errors.
Mr.. Hines is made subject of spe-
cial count, he being said to have been
moved by spirit of hostility toward
the defendants and not fit to act as
prosecuting attorney. The overruling
of the challenge for cause preferred by
defendants to long list of veniremen,
whose names are given in the motion,
is alleged to be an error. Side re-
marks made by the States attorney
while examining jurors are charged to
have been improper. Judge LOnge-
necker's opening statement to the jury
is cited as an error and characterized
as improper remarks of counsel for
lu0 DUdlc, NDiCu CAClOCu pdDoiOhS
and prejudices of the jurors against the
defendants. 1t is charged as an error
that the prosecution was permitted to
introduce as evidence and exhibit to
the jury the clothing, instruments and
hair of DR.. Cronin, the false teeth, the
trunk and all the material evidence in
the case. The introduction of DR..
Cronin's knives after the State had
closed it's case is said to have teen al
error. Objection is made to a number
of the instructions given to the jury by
the court. The verdict is pronounced
as contrary to law and not justified
by evidence, and finally it is said that
"the defendants and each of them
have discovered evidence which entities
them to a new trial"
