A DISMAL TRIAL.
An Irate Limb of the Law and an Officer
Clash.


Clash.
Frank Mackemson is in JAIL. No
doubt about it at all
Yesterday morning Mr.. A. S. Hous-
ton, an attorney, applied to Jailor
Brown to be admitted to see him, but
was fatty refused as it was positively
against orders.
This incensed the able lawyer and
he forthwith swore out warrant and
had Jailor Brown ya4ked up before
Justice Calhoun on a charge of re-
fusing an attorney to enter the Jail to
consult with his client.
The trial was set for 3 o'clock and
at that hour the prisoner Brown and
the prisoner Mackemson and Officer
Plumb and the able attorneys George
Walton, J. r. Hamilton and A.
S. Houston, solemnly filed into
the court room, followed by a process
sion Of admiring citizens.
After all were seated the able JUS
tice with becoming gravity opened
court and announced ready for bust
ness.
County Attorney Walton then read
with awful solemnity the charge
pausing ever and anon to see what ef-
feet his deep bass voice and grave
manner was having on the hard
hearted and abdurate Brown.
During the reading of the charge
Attorney Houston glared furiously at
Brown, who looked appealingly to his
defender, Attorney Hamilton, who
in turn glared furiously at Attorney
Houston.
Mackemson glazed at nobody in
particular but at everybody in general
and everybody glared at Mackemson
Jailor Brown was sworn and testified
that he had refused Attorney Houston
admission to the jail.
why did you refuse him?" sternly
asked County Attorney Walton.
81 refused him because Mackemson
said he did't want to see him and that
he had employed Mcdowell. l also
had orders from Sheriff White to let
mo one see and talk with Mackemson.
Mackemson was put on the stand
and testified that he had partially
contracted with Attorney Houston
several days ago, but that he had
changed his mind and employed
Attorney Dowell.
Attorney Dowell testified that he
had been employed by Mackemson tc
defend him.
This and other testimony to the
same effect so impressed the court thai
Officer Brown was exonerated anC
honorably discharged from custod J
whereupon he and Attorney Hamil
ton, who had ably defended him fel
upon each others necks and weep
tears of joy to the infinite disgust o
Attorneys Walton and Houston. The
court was deeply affected and so fal
forgot itself as to threaten to treat the
crowd to cigars, six for a nickle.
During the whole trial Mackemsor
looked the picture of innocence ant
when on the stand talked as one mos
deeply and cruelty injured. His tria
lis set for next Monday, at which time
Lawyer Dowell will represent him.

The Dog Killer.

The dog killers are getting in their
work where it is not needed, and
night before last fine Scotch terrier,
the property OF Prof. Halstead, was
killed. On the same night Mr.. j. M.

There was no earthly use in killing
either the above dogs, and if this kind

Rev. Bishop Kahn, on the occasion OF his
return to this city from his European tour,

it seems altogether probable that the AFFAIR
will be one Of great magnitude, and that II
will be participated in by representatives
from all the leading centres of population
in this State, with large delegations from
the towns over the river. The matter has
been in charge of a committee of fourteen,
four from the St. Alphonsus and Benwood
conversations. and three each from the
Cathedral and St. Mary's church, IN the
Eighth ward. and the details are ABOUT
complete.
The Rt. Rev. Bishop is expected to ar

object of the committee to charter speclal

will be long and imposing one.
The gathering of clergy and societies
will be the largest seen in this city since
the arrival of the Rt. Rev. Bishop from a
similar journey ten years ago, and as there
will be excursion rates on all the railroads,
both by reason of this demonstration, as
well as through the opening of the State
Fair, which occurs on the same day, the
city will in all probability be crowded with
strangers from all the surrounding coun-
fry
