The meeting OF the Cosmos Climb last
evening at Taylor's Hotel was one Of the
most interesting in the history Of the
club, Major q. X. Pnngborn occupied
the chair, in the absence or the president.
Counsellor James Flemming. Mr.. Elem,
ming was the Essayist of the evening
but being unable to attend, his paper
which was q learned dissertation on the
su~bjccf:-"Can a lawyer honestly take the
wrong side of u case?'f was read by
Counsellor Otto Grouse. Among those
who tool part in the general discussion
which followed, were:-Prof. Eckhoff.
tho Rev. DIR. Stoddard, Prof. Heike
Mr.. Il. G. Sanborn, Counsellor
Otto Grouse, exMayor Gilbert Collins
Counsellor Babbitt, MIR. Hague Dr. w. III.
Newell, Counsellor George T. Record.
Mr.. joseph A. Dear. Mr.. John A. Walker
and Mr.. Chuuncey Holt. The weight OF
argument was i'll favor of the affirmative.
consenttent opinion being that a LAWYER
should never admit the wrong side Of a
case, but that all cases, with a rare excep-
ton, may be honestly defended. After
adjournment the club partook of an elab-
crate lunch, furnished by the hosts OF the
evening, MessFs. John A. Walker and
William G., Brown.
The next meeting Of the club will be

OF his time in the city, and a rumor
reached Springvale one day that he had
lost $4,000 at faro in one night-nearly
twice the amount of money that Harry
Joy had had TO commence business upon.
From this time Arthur Floyd became
more reckless and dissipated than ever,
and cautious people began to whisper of
impending bankruptcy. An officer from
the city arrived one day and closed down
upon everything.
The next morning after that ~ruinous,
but to some extent unexpected failure,
Arthur Floyd was found suspended by
the neck to a great beam in his W
barn, and quite dead when discovered.
Susan Joy had just received a call from
her aunt, Mrs. Gladstone, when the sad
news of the suicide reached them.

THROWN OUT In THE MUD.
Mrs. Wilson and Miss Roman Go for
Drive and End Up in q Drug Store.

Mrs. Wilson and Miss Roman Go for a
Drive and End Up in a Drug Store.
There was a big excitement on Central
avenue last evening, caused by a run
away n two women narrowly escaped
death. Mrs. Emma Wilson, of No. 9S
Sherman avenue, and q friend from New
York, Miss Fanny Roman, hired o horse
and buggy at George B. Meinken's Web
ster avenue stables and started out for a
ride. Mrs. Wilson held the reins and her
reckless driving attracted attention as
the horse dashed through Griffith street.
Just before reaching Central avenue, the
horse, unused to such driving, started ON
a run, and Mrs. Wilson was unceremoni-
ously dumped into the street. Miss
Roman screamed and tried to stop the
animal, u as the latter turned INTO Cen
tral avenue, she was thrown out and her
dress catching on the wagon, she was
dragged through the muddy streets some
distance before her dress tore Off.
Sergeant Holderer and Policeman
Purdy took the women into DIR. Horn
blowers drug store, where their wounds
were dressed. Mrs. Wilson escaped with
some severe bruises, but Miss Roman re-
ceived q scalp wound and was generally
shaken up and bruised. Followed by a
great crowd, the officers escorted the
women to Mrs. Wilson'S home.
The horse was stopped at the corner of
Manhattan avenue, and with the rem
nants OF the buggy was returned to Mem
ken's stable.
Mrs. Wilson was out later in the even
ing looking In vain for q beaded sacaue
which she had lost.
