to instruct the sheriff to bring the prisoner
into court, as he wasready to pass upon the
motion for O new trial made in that case.
Within half an hour the murderer Aszman
was in his seat. and the attorneys CD both
sides had arrived. Judge Irwin briefly re-
viewed the position taken by him when'he
charged the jury, and to which the attor-
neys for the defense had objected. He
concluded by stating in his opinion
the technical exceptions urged by the
defense would not Justify a new trial.
Five days were allowed for the filing of a
bill of exceptions and sixty days for an APP
peal to the Supreme Court. which was
prayed for and granted. Aszman was then
told to stand, which he did without the
slightest betrayal of excitement or emo
ton. Judge Irwin read the verdict of the
jury to him in q clear, steady voice, and
concluded with the question, Have you

VIII Not Buy Land.

While the work of booming Indianapolis
is in progress the proposed mile track of
the t~rotting and pacing association should
not be lost sight of. The race meetings of
this organization will bring big crowds and
a great deal of money into the city. The
memberso of the association having in charge
the matter of purchasing a site have
about given up the idea of buying land be-
cause of the high prices asked. They have
been working very quietly. but in every
instance the owner has refused to give
options until he knew for what purpose
the land was to be Used, and when he
found out up ven the price of the prop
erty. 1t is now int lded. if possible, to
lease q tract of land-seventy-five or
eighty acres-for twenty-five years, and
put in a track. Several contractors have
assured the members that if the lease is eff
fected by March l there will be time enough
to get the track in shape and erect the nee
essary buildings by June L. in ample time
for the opening meeting, which begins ten
DAYS later.

He Was ADsent-Minded.

JOY
The burning of the old church at Dam
vers brings very wildly to the mind of a
reader of the Transcript for fifty years
the old pastor of the Danvers church, Rev.
Milton p. Brainard. This reverend gentle
man was a very absent-minded man, as
we'll as a man with a large sense OF humor
and great skill i'm the use of sarcasm. Most
of the stories still related of him at Dan
vers, however, have reference to his absent
mindedness. One Sunday he preached for
a brother minister at Salem, five miles dis
tant from his home. He drove his own
conveyance, of course, and took his
wife with him. When the service was
over. his wife came out and took her post
on the church steps to wait for him, but
the parsOn drove straight home from the
sheds, leaving his wife standing on the
steps In the rain. When he reached home
he put mp his horse and went into the
house. He found his youngest child max
ing some sort of a disturbance.
why don't you take the child TO its
motherY" he asked the servant who had it.
Its mother" said the woman, aghast;
why, you took her to Salem this morning.
So the dominic had to hitch up and drive
back to Salem; and he found his wife still
standing on the steps of the old church in
Chestnut street, in the rain, calmly await.
ing him. She had learned to be patient.

Joseph b. Bennett. deceased, Gilbert S.
Bennett and the New York Life Insurance
Company, to require the payment to her of
a policy on Joseph b. Benefits life amount

that a clause in her fathers will, made in
1876, devised the proceeds of the policy to
her aud her brother Gilbert, in the event
of decedent's death before Gilbert became
of age. If his death occurred after the lat
ter became of age, and able to earn his own
living. then the policy was to be solely for
Laura's benefit. She claims her brother is
earning his own living, and asks that he
be enjoined from setting up any claim to
the money. which, she says. the New York

soon as the courts decide TO whom it is to
be paid.
