THE CIRCUIT COURT.
The Proceedings of the Week.


The jury in the trial of Ambrose
Polsgrove for the killing of his
brother-in-law, Jerry Williamson, on
County Court Day last November,
was selected late Friday as follows:
o. p. Dean. James Parker. Lee Jones,
Jacob Gudgel, Ben UUterback. Ben
Marshall, B. w. Jenkins, Burb Black
burn, Frank Church, James Ander.
son, Walter Smith and James Bod
kins. The testimony was begun on
Saturday and concluded on Monday,
there being about forty witnesses ex-
amined for both sides. The proof
showed that Williamson had often
whipped his wife, who was Polsgrove's
sister, and that Polsgrove resented it
and endeavored to make his sister
leave Williamson. Threats were
made by Williamson that he would
settle with Polsgrove for meddling in
his affairs, but the prosecution states
that the defense failed to show that
any of these threats. were ever re-
peated to Polsgrove. 81
Physicians testified that William
sons wounds clearly proved that he
was shot in the back and Polsgrove's
own testimony was an admission that
at the time of the tragedy he did not
feel that his life was in any danger.
Arguments were begun Monday by
j. A. Violet for defense and County
Attorney Johnson for the prosecution.
On Tuesday John w. Rodman spoke
for the defense and James A. Scott
closed that side of the case, when
Commemorative Attorney John s.
Gaunt closed for the prosecution.
The case was submitted to the jury
and in less than fifteen minutes YER
dict of acquittal was returned to the
court and the prisoner discharged.
There are four other cases against
Mr.. Polsgrove for the same days
shooting, in which the stray shots
winged four other persons in the
great crowd at the corner of Main
and st. Clair streets, but as the first
great offense was not punishable in
law, the other indictments were
fled away, and Polsgrove was fined
$25 for carrying concealed weapon.
The case of James Gill, colored,
charged with the murder of Chas. Nc
Fall. cOlored. on an excursion train
at Jett's, was continued Wednesday
until next term.
The case Of Mrs. Belle Pfeiffer vs..
Frank Pfeiffer, in which there was
claim for wages against the uncle for
work performed by Mrs. Pfeiffer's
son, was decided, upon the peremp-
tory instructions Of the court, in |
favor of the defendant.

A POLITICAL SPECULATION.
How the Herald sizes up New York
CtfU.


New YoRK, October 25.-The Herald to-
day publishes calculations on the city's
vote, based on two days registration. It
says: "There have now been registered in
round numbers, 2O2, 600 voters. This tre-
mendous registration in two days fore
shadows total of $4,000 or 85O, 900 for
two more days, and it would be against all
precedent if fewer than 6000 registered each
day. Some enthusiastic souls will put the
total as high as SAG, 600. About eight per
cent Of voters who register do not go to
the polls. If we take eight we may still be
very sure the total in New York City will
be more than 100000. 1t may go up to 315,-
600. Up to this point is a matter of cold
mathematics and both sides have to agree.
But here they split as to the division of the
vote. Republicans say they viii get at
least 10000. If we take the total vote only
10000, land that seems to be the lowest
possible fgure), 1S0 would be left to be di-
Yided among all the other tickets. Not
more than 5000 will be polled by the prohi-
bitionists, peoples party and socialists,
woman suffragists and all the rest. There
fore, the democratic plurality in New York
City will be 3d. ,000. The democratic pro
phets will not admit the vote TO be less
than $4,000. Then they say the republi-
cans cannot have more than 10000. That
would leave 10000 for the other tickets, of
which 300 900 will be for the democrats, or
a plurality of $4,000

thorities at Manila in the letter part of Au-
gust. The Rodriguez brothers were the
two English ex-convicts who escaped sew
eral years ago from the penal colony at
New Caledonia, and whose last exploit
was the capture of Tahitan yacht in
August, by causing the cook Of the vessel
which was engaged in trading among the
islands, to poison the crew of four, while
the brothers disposed Of the captain and
the super cargo, shooting them dead as
they sat at the table. According to MISS
Wyckotf's information, the cook revenged
himself for the refusal of the Rodriguez
brothers to comply with their promise to
divide with him the profit of their crime,
amounting to $4,000 by betraying them
to the officer of the Spanish revenue cut
ter at Manila. The cook testified against
the brothers at the trial, but was in turn
convicted as an accomplice and was first
to be beheaded. The two brothers met
their fate stoically. The yacht will be re-
turned to the king of Tahiti, TO whom it

AN INTERESTING LECTURE.
An AppreciatIve Audience Listens
TO Rev. ThOs. Van Ness.

An Appreciattve Audience Listens
TO Rev. ThOs. Van Ness.
Notwithstanding the counter attraction
at Columbia hall in the nature of politi-
cal duel, the lecture by Rev. Thos. Van
Ness, at Unity church, was fairly well at
tended. The talk was thoroughly enjoyed
by everyone present. Mr.. Van Ness is the
possessor of a peculiarly happy and lucid
style of delivery and such perfect self com
mand that it is delight to listen to him.
He first treated of the phase of German
environment most noticeable to an Ameri-
can visitor, hegreat standing army, which
was never standing, but always moving
about and making itself conspicuous. 1t
took the men from productive industries
and their place and work had to be sup
piled in some measure by women.
But on the other hand the fact that men
of different parts of the empire were
brought in close contact with the army
and we're brought to visit all parts of the
country tended to break up narrow pro.
vincialism and establish feeling of ma
tional unity or brotherhood. Bismark,
the man of 'blood and iron," was the
force that like the hammer on the
anvil, welded together the hitherto
loosely united members of the German
confederation. Bismarck represented
brute or physical force And against him
was Richard Wagner who welded no less
power of the imagination and sentiment.
Wagner wrought revolution in the COM
position of music, releasing it from the
bars of its formal bondage and giving it a
wider freedom. Before bis time music had
been written in bars Of equal measure, a
style that may be compared to the measur-
ed lines of rhyme in poetry. Wagner's
method was the introduction of the blank
verse method in music the thought being
expressed in a continuous and progressive
way.
Wagner's opera house at Bay reuth
pronounced Bi roit) was the scene of the
ParsiYal play. A brief description of the
holy grail legend was given and then a
description Of the impressive manner it
was represented in the darkened opera
house was given.
1t was better than reading the many
magazine articles on the subject, the speak
! ers action suiting the words so admirably.
At the conclusion it was announced that
/ the lecture just given might be considered
Introductory to the proposed course that
has been planned for the coming season.

I happy evening.

Mr. Root opened the debate by discuss
ing the question Of tariff with reference to
local application. The national banks.
peoples party propositions, government
ownership of roads and the silver question
were dissected from a republican stand
point. In reviewing the acts of the repub-

homestead act, anti-C Chinese measures, i'm
portation of laborers under contract, and
the exemption Of property from taxation
and forced sale up to certain limit
In his reply Mr.. Gaby fatty contradicted
statements made by Mr.. Root and at
tempted to show how little real difference
there was between the republican and
democrats parties on many of the great
issues. The railway purchase and the sub
treasury schemes were defended and clip

break the water finds its way to the sea.
Poor wretches climb to the tops of their
