THE BRECKENRIDGE CASE.
The Prosecution Closed and the Outlines
of the Defense Given.

The Prosecution CfOsed anu the Outhues
of the Defense Given.
WASHINGTON March 22.-The prose-
cution rested in the Pollard Breckin-
ridge breach of promise case yesterday
and Col. Shelby opened for the defend
ant in a statement making a general
denial of the charges.
The defense did not intend, he said,
to condone whatever was wrong in the
relations of the two, and it was only
by the truth the defendant wanted to
be judged.
Denial was made of the allegation
that in August, 1892, or at any other
time, the defendant had promised to
marry Miss Pollard; he absolutely re-
fused her suggestions in 1892 that she
go to Miss Williard's in Berlin and
upon her return he should marry her.
In March. 1898. the pressure brought
to bear upon Col Breckenridge by Miss
Pollard was enormous. She was known
intimately to Mrs. Blackburn as a
young, .agreea BILE woman from the same
state. There was talk as to why Miss
Pollard was seen SO much with Col
Breckenridge. She told him this and
that she had explained to Mrs. Black
burn that they were engaged He told
her that it was his purpose to tell Mrs.
Blackburn frankly the relations that
had existed between them She i'm
plored him not to make known their
relations, not to expose her then. but
to give her one more chance to make a
place for herself in the world, protect
her so far as to admit nothing to Mrs.
Blackburn. then she would go to New
York and gradually die out of his life.
By the aid of the admission, in that
way she could get out of his life, out of
Mrs. Blackburn's life and out of Wash

BABY's EASTER BASKET.

In cut. Fill the basket with white
swan's-down cotton and place the pre-
pared eggs, one on either side.
To prepare the eggs make small
holes in the ends and expel the con-
tents by blowing. When empty and
dry fill with violet powder. Cover the
ends with perforated white court
plaster. pasted on neatly, making the
perforations with a shoe-punch.
A powder puff tied to the handle
adds to the effectiveness. The powder
can be busted on the tender flesh from
the egg and ''smoothed down" by
means of the puff.

Assist the Unfortunate.

While ignorance and debased habits
multiply paupers, the great trouble is
that the unfortunate victims are not
helped to stand and walk, but are too
often struck down. The poor, the
week, the ignorant. should receive a
better protection from society than
those who are able to help themselves.
When through pressure of poverty
men commit crime. society, if from no
higher motive than self-preservation,
should remove the pressure; the cry
for bread must be satisfied, if prisons
arc to be done away with.

OMAHA, Neb., March 23-Now it
is strike. Union Pacific employees are
uneasy and FESTIVE, and there is an
ugly look in the sky. They are not
saying many words, but the few they
use count for good deal Concessions
they came for, and, so far they have
had none. All the conceding has been
done by the men. Not point has
been given in by the company, and
wherever there was a difference of
opinion it still exists, unless the men
have receded from their position. This
has had very depressing effect upon
them.
