Post Office Inspector Hall and Mr.. r.
wing A. Libby were put on the stand for
certain points OF detail in rebuttal. AT
ter this, Hon. George E. Bird, for the de-
fence, began his closing argument. His
argument and the argument OF District
Attorney Dyer occupied the entire after
noon.
A little before o'clock, Judge Webb
charged the jury, summing up the con-
tentions of each side, and then giving
this concluding instruction as to the
bearing of the word knowingly" when
used in describing Reeds connection
with the Moore business. Judge Webb
said that if a person committed to Mrs.
Smith large mass of lottery tickets and
envelopes, to be enclosed and directed,
and afterwards received back bundle
from Mrs. Smith containing the enclosed
and directed matter, and without open
ing this package should deposit it in the
post Office, that person would knowingly
deposit any one of the things SO includ-
ed in the bundle.
The jury retired at $50 o'clock and re-
turned at $50 o'clock, rendering YER
dict of guilty ON two out of three counts
of the indictment, those of knowingly
depositing letters and sending them
through the mails. The defendant APP
pealed from the verdict ITO the United
States Court of Appeals. The bonds
will be fixed at the coming in of court at
10 a. m. today. In the meantime Mr..
Reed is in the charge of U, S. Deputy
Marshal Smith. The penalty in the case
provided the present verdict stands, is
one year in prison, or fine, or both.

The stage offers many instances of a
mocking fortune. Mr.. Braton Robins,
an old actor, whose recollections of half
century on the stage We're published
in part some time ago, had the one great
chance,of his life when he was in the
very direst straits. He had been a
super, and had advanced into the more
dignifed rank of the recognized actor.
For some days he had been living on
bread and water, and he was weak and ill.
Then news came to him that Mr.. Betty
had declined his part at Drury Lane.
Mr. Robins was sent for. The play was
s'Richelieu," and he had never appeared
in it. Shylock was his favorite char
acter, and he begged that the play might
be changed. But this could not be done,
and in twenty-four hours the unknown
actor had to learn the enormous part.
He sat up all night, and next morning
he was letter perfect, but he had eaten
nothing, and his excitement would not
allow him to sleep.
When the curtain went up for the op-
portunity which gave him chance for
renown, his privations told their tale.
His voice deserted him, the performance
was failure, and at the close he was
taken away to bed and long period of
sickness. Thus in the very moment of
his success Dame Fortune showed how
tickle she could be.--Drarnatic Letter.
