To the Editor of THE EVENING STAR:
In addition to the loafers, black and yhitc,
male and female, who during the summer
months make a loafng and lolling place of the
little triangular plat in front of the Police
Court there has appeared within the past few
days stray horse, who can be seen browsing
at his leisure upon (what was intended to be

of TwnIng, what must be thy feeling when
witnessing this Dissertation of one of the beauty

phurous words" which would reach the ear of
the deafest man on the police force Strange
that this unsightly scene has not caught the
esthetic eye of the judge of the Police Court.
But perhaps, since he has become a farmer.
this rustic mode of enjoyment of man and
horse is not as offensive to him as it is to the
city folks. These parks, large and small. were
intended for the general adornment of the CITY,
and know of no duty more urgent upon the
authorities than to see that they are not
diverted from this purpose. Ms,

COWLES CLEARS HALE.
The Wounded Man Makes a Statement
Exoncrating His Brother-in-Law,

Eugene H. Cowles of Cleveland. who was
shot by his brother-in-law, G. c. Hale. made n
statement yesterday at Montreal which prac-
tically clears Hale. In the course OF his depo-
sition he says: Il stated to Hale and my wife
several times that any one interfering to de.
prive me of my child would be shot by me if
did not get the protection OF a court in time
The threats made were against any one who
would try TO deprive me of my child illegally.
l acted all through upon legal advice from
Cleveland and Toronto, and never overstepped
the bounds of tho law. l cannot charge and
VIII not accuse my brother-in-law with shoot
Ing me with intent to do me any HARM
II believe that he was momentarily ont of
his mind, having been wrought up to that state
by the sufferings of my wife, and that she sug-
gested this to him. because believe them both
incapable of doing an evil act and more espe-
ciaily of doing me any harm"
Yesterday morning at IL o'clock the evil
dence in the Cowles-Hale shooting case
was submitted to the grand jury along
with Cowless deposition generating Hale for
wilful attempt Mt murder. The jury
are out considering the case, and tax
stances. The consensus of opinion is that
result OF the jury's deliberations will BIO mo
bill. Cowies continues to improve and In the
event OF true-bill being returned 1t is proba-
BILE that Hale will be tried during the present
term, though there is possibility OF his being
remanded tn September.
