coRNs IN COURT.
A Novel Case la an Oregon Court In which
Lady Offers to show Her Feet

A Novel Case In an Oregon Court In Which
Lady Offers to Show Her Feet.
Spectators in Justice Woods court
yesterday morning enjoyed an hour OF
comedy, IN which H. ID. Carrnine and
wife and Mrs. Luella Runyon were the
principal actors
Carmine was on trial on charges of
assaulting Mrs. Runyon and tearing
and destroying cape belonging to her.
The complaining witness testified that
she was chiropodist, and that she had
contracted with Mrs. Carmine, who Is
dressmaker, for some dresses and a
cape, agreeing 70 tender her professional
services in return. When the dresses,
ETC., were completed. Mrs Runyon
called for them, but found that Mrs.
Carmine didn't need her services, but
wanted her money. Carmine interfered
in the trouble which followed and man
aged to tear the cape and get himself
mixed up with the Justices court.
When Carmine was placed on the
stand and had told his version of the
affair, he was asked If his wife was
troubled with corns or bunions. The
attorneys for the defense excitedly OBJ
jected TO this and had wordy war with
Deputy District Attorney Malarkey,
which resulted in victory for the de-
Tense, the court holding that a husband
was not supposed to tell all he knew IN
regard to his wife.
When Mrs. Carmine took the stand,
however, the objection no longer held,
and she was compelled TO admit that
she had small corn which never
troubled her In the discussion of
corns and bunions which followed Mrs.
Runyon demanded that Mrs. Carmine
allow the court to examine her feet, and
Mrs. Carmine won the day by spirited
ly replying that she was willing TO do
so If the court thought it necessary.
Carmine was discharged from Gus
tody.-Portland Oregonian.

W. Z. Stead, the English editor who
has Gven creating series of sensations

distant people by the telepathic process.

Now, why is it that so much of what
purports TO be spirit communication Is
rot and inanity? Well, for one thing,
the greater part Of what is spoken and

The hardest work the leaders of the Penn
sylvania democracy are having on the eve
of the state convention to nominate a Con-
gresham -at-large is in inducing some suit
able person to become a candidate. Gov.
Pattison and Adjutant General Greenland
held a conference with Andrew c. Curtin

day and endeavored to secure his consent to
become a candidates The venerable ex-gov-
ernor was ineXorably firm in his declination

and the head of the state National Guar
National Chairman VIM. r. Harrity. ex-
District Attorney John r. Read. State
Chairman J. Marshall Wright, and other
prominent democrats We're in conference
last night and after numerous selections
had been dropped. because of the refusal of
those chosen to pose. a determined effort
was made by Mr.. Harrity TO induce James
Denton Hancock of Franklin. Eenango
county, to accept the nomination.
Although Mr.. Hancock said late last night
that he would not accept the nomination, IL
was regarded extremely probable that
today's convention would nominate him and
that strong pressure will be brought to bea :
by MIR. Harrity and his friends TO have him
accept the honor.

Hancock persist in his refusal to serve il is
likely that Mr.. Grier will be chosen.

Lean, formerly custom house interpreter

ries of years and highly sensational disclo-
sures are promised when the cases are

An Opinion From the Thunderer.

The London Times commenting on the
relations between the United States and
Hawaii, says: american political men
may argue that owing to the Hawaiian
queens dilatory conduct, President Cleve-
lands offer to procure her restoration no
longer holds good. Technically. that may
be true, but will such piece of pettifog-
ging commend itself to the Judgment of
the American people? The President has
declared himself prepared to cooperate in
any legislative plan consistent with Amer
lean honor, integrity and morality. Can
the recognition of a government described
by the President himself impossible by
force and fraud form part of such a plan =?
The Presidents offer may, indeed, have
lapsed by the passage OF time, but the
moral grounds on which he based it cannot
have vanished. even i'm the stress of Amer
lean politics. in less than a month"
