TO hear the argument in this now cele--
brated case. NJ. i. Browning continued
his speech, which was interrupted by adj

half hours.
COLONEL BERKELEY.
He was followed by Colonel r. B. Berke-
lev, whose speech was as effective as any
vet delivered and seemed especially to en-
gage the attention of the jury. lie took
up the points that had been made by
Browning and Brown, some OF which he
turned to ridicule by sarcasm or Jokes and
Others he earnestly attacked by forcible
arguments drawn from the evidence in
the case. He spoke for two and half
hours and after recess was followed by
Hon, j. T.. Moore, who took up the cudgels
for the defence, and endeavored to
KNOCK TO PIECES
the arguments of Colonel Berkeley. He
ably presented the theory of the defence
in regard TO the time and circumstances of
the murder and concluded from a COM
parison of the statements OF conflicting
witnesses that Feagles was in Newborn
when Caddall was killed. He spoke for
two hours and when no closed the court

pension of the CORY National Bank,

vided profits, 5000. The liabilities are
unknown.
PIrrsBURa, Pa. November THE de-
poHts are close to S500,0)0. The failure IS

THE VAULTS FULL OF OFFICIAL PAPER.

CLEVELAND, o., November IA special
from Erie. Pa. says the Bank Examiner
will not talk. but it is generally believed
that the banks condition has not changed
materially since the last report, when The
deposits were S543. 900 and t1e total liabili-
ties. including capital and circulation,
S74O, 600. The Bank Examiner says he
found the capital of the bank much I'M
naired and he closed it. II is believed that
since President Allen has been making
large investments in timber land. and
Cashier Harmon in grape and livestock
farms, in New York iron-works. and other
enterprises, that the bank may contain a
large quantity OF the bank officials own
paper. Shrewd businessmen guess that
the banks vaults are full of paper on
which it would be difficult to realize.

were walking up Park Row. The

GUS q thing as you can do. The uni
form Of the fireman has been red
since time immemorial. although
since organized fire depa1 tments
have been organized the color has
been sensibly changed, for the ele-
ment the fremen fight is red, and
the danger is apparent. The hue
of the poppy in the fields suggests
the dangerous side of the narcotic it
harbors. Some one aware of the
dangers of debauches has coined the
phrase we know SO well, Painting
the town red.' Red in art is
risky color to use unless the painter
knows thoroughly how to use it, as
Sir Edwin Landseer did in his pic
lures, which invariably contained a
touch of red somewhere. Turner
employed red lavishly, and although
he succeeded in producing marvellous
effects, his followers have made
countless millions mourn over fiery
corusations on canvas. Wherever
you turn you find red as a mark of
peril"

) The letter set forth the intended
visit of Mr.. Richard Kerth to the
east and his plan to spend some
time at Germantown-at his aunt's
residence, if she wished it SO if not,
with some friends of his there by the
name of Boggs. There were various
gallant references to Mr.. Kerth's
cousins and delicate situation that
he would probably fall in love with
one of them during his visit, There
was also q casual reference to the
sum of one hundred and fifty dollars.
''She was short this time, remark
ed the writer of the letter aloud;
"only sent a hundred. Strike her
deeper next time"
There were two more letters in the
batch-both to cousins living in
Chicago. They were full Of mystic
rious hints about good times to be
enjoyed when he should visit the
city shortly. Each demanded plain
loan OF fifty dollars. :

names. Each letter was dated, and
underneath was entered the result
achieved. The latter was generally
favorable. ~

Science BefOgged,

Concerning those who, although
able are unwilling to take the rouble
to write for their readers or sp ,ak for
their hearers, somewhat me re ex-
tended comment may be desira BILE.
1t is always difficult to make lust
analysis of motives, but there can be
little doubt that some of these are
Influenced by desire to initiate the
rare genius whose intellectual adj
vances are SO rapid and so powerful
as to forbid all efforts to secure q
clear and simple presentation of re-
suits. The king is lame and the
courtier must limp. With others
there is a strange and unwholesome
prejudice against making science
ineligible, for fear that science may
become popular. 1t is forgotten
that clear and accurate expression,
and that as matter of fact the two
are almost inseparable. .. ..
The apparent success before the
people of the dilettante and the
charlatan has resulted, in the case of
many good and able men, in a posi-
tive aversion to popular approval.
1t should never be forgotten that
the Judgment and taste of the pub
lic in matters relating to science are
just as susceptible of cultivation as
in music and the fine arts, and that
scientific men owe it to themselves to
see that opportunity for this culture
is not withheld.-Protessor T. G..

Weldon and Miss Lulu Bever drove
forty miles from Williamstown at
break-neck speed to get here ahead of
the girls angry father, who opposed
the marriage. They went imme-
diately to the court house, where
they were refused q license. A hack
was secured, and the anxious couple
drove to Dayton, Ky, to the resi-
dence of County Clerk Jones. After
some persuasion the old gentleman
agreed to issue license. Squire Hal

squire, hackman and lovers started
for this city. While en- route the
bride espied her father down the road
driving like mad. The squire could
not marry the couple until he got in

man had his horses going in a wild

line. The couple stood up and clasp
ed hands. Squire Hallen braced him
self against the seat, and clasping
the fond hands, watched for the line.

across the line, and, while it Mas
rocking like boat in a storm Hallen
married the pair. The father con-
.cluded to forgive the couple, and the
party returned home.
