He Thinks the Language of His In
diciment Was Ambiguous.

BosToN, June 1S.-The final appeal on
the noted case of the Commonwealth VS..
Daniel M. Robertson OF New Bedford
came up for hearing before the Supreme
Judicial Court, sitting as a full bench for
the Commonwealth this morning.
Daniel NJ. Robertson was indicted for
the murder of his wife and convicted of
murder in the first degree by the Superior
Court OF Bristol county. An appeal was
made to the Supreme Court and now
further appeal to the full bench of the Su-
preme Court followed.
The defendants bill OF exceptions from
the order of the court over-ruling his
motion to quash the indictment of MUIR
der, contains the following:
There is not sufficient allegation how
the defendant held the knife.
Description of the mortal wound Is in
sufficient.
Location of the mortal wound upon the
head is not definite.
1t does not sufficiently appear which
one of the several wounds was the fatal
one.
1t is not alleged whether death was in
Simultaneous or not.
The defendant claims that the photo
graphs used by the Commonwealth were
erroneous.
The decision OF the full bench will not
be known for n few days.

ADVICE TO SENIORS.
President Andrews Last Words to '94
on "True and False Character"

President Andrews OF Brown University
preached his annual baccalaureaIe sermon
at the First Baptist Church yes
terday afternoon. just before the SER
gathered on the campus and marched
down TO the church where music was rem
dered by members OF the Glee Club. as
sisted ny number OF the students of the
Women's College.
The subject OF the sermon was "T'rue
and False Character" and taking the text
from Kings, ii: 5-6, Dr. Andrews spoke of
the lessons that were taught in the Bible.
The Book, he said, was like a picture book
In that II loved To teach men by object
lessons, placing before them characters
that We're bad as well as characters that
were good in order that each kind may
have proper effect upon.the judgment.
Ihe good characters presented in the
Bible are inspiring and IL is wise to study
them, but at the same time there is much
that is good and valuable i'm the life OF
any one among the wicked men intro
duced.
Dr.. Andrews then considered number
OF characters, drawing out and pointing to
their distinguishing traits by way of IL
lustration. One OF these was Josb. He
was remarkably brave man and
TINS was an important trait
in that rough nge when daring
counted for more than science i'm a gem
erai His character was also of special
attractiyeness because OF the strength
and largeness that possessed him along
with bis w!ckedness. His life was
maryelously full of,movement, OF tragedy;
and there was about him, withal, great
deal that was, in its way, splendidly. good
and praiseworthy.
Such were the characters that present
moral problems that are terrible,
tantaiizing, seemingly invuiner-
able. But a bedrock character
is never dual. A man at any time was
olther cne thing or the other and never
both. Pi obc ca the center OF mans
being and IL viii be found that he either
loved God or that be loved him not. One
could not sum up human
character as he would sum up an
aigcbraic addition, equating negatives
with positives and seeing which size had
over In spiritual msthe-
MATES, however numerous the plus signs,
ard however large the quantities which
they affect, II the deepest purpose of life
was negative, everything was negative.
The sermon was rich with the best of
advice to the ciassmen W no listened 10 II.
AT the evening service Rev. 4. Edwin
Brown, DID,, OF Memorial Baptis Church,
Philadelphia, preached a sermon before
the religious societies OF he college His
text was taken froniesrcts XVII Is, "Whom
therefore ye iylorantly worship him de-
clare unto you
DR.. Browns discourse was an interest
ing study OF Eaups sermon TO the men OF
Athens, and its lessons were made 20
apply with rcmaskabi force to the young
men in the congregation.

The Joint committee on accounts of the
City Coancil will hold a meeting at
O'Clock this afternoon, to consider sundry
matters from the auditor's department. IL

time of its submission some weeks ago.
Members of the committee are Inclined

mon him to the meeting and obtain
more light in detail as to the time devoted
TO the examination of titles and other

are materially less, and they are disposed

LIQUOR LICENSES.
Commissioners Have Almost Reached
Their Limit For This Year.

The license commissioners are gradually
reaching the limit of the issue OF licenses
for the year. Thus far they have ap-
proved some 39i applications, and the
balance OF the 400 which they have decided
to issue will be given to old licenses
rather than to new applicants.
There are several remonstrances
pending, and IL Ii the intention of the
board to give a preference to that class
which by transfer from Objectionable To-
cations and compliance with the law in
previous years, have justified the commis-
sioners In reserving for them the vacan-
