COURT RECORD.
Superior Court-Cr1mInal Side-Judge

Superior Court-Cr1mInal Side-Judge
 Wheeler.
 Shortly after o'clock yesterday after noon the jury in this court which has un- der consideration the case of James A. Stevens, who Is charged with murderously sssaulting Grace Phillips on November 4, returned with a verdict of guilty. The jury dslibsrated over the case for three hours. Sentence was deferred until this morning.
 When court opened at 10 o'clock Attor- .ney Asher, counsel for Stevens, com menced his argument and spoke continu- ously for an hour and a half. The closing argument for the state was then made by State Attorney Doolittle, and af- ter an able charge had bsen made by Judge Wheeler, the case was given to the jury shortly before 1 o'clock.
 Late yesterday afternoon the trial of Hattie Doyle and William Kelly, both of this city, accused of adultery, was com menced and continued until this morn ing. Attorney Wynne appears for the accused.
 Superior Court - Civil Side - Judge Wheeler.
 In this court yesterday tho trial of the suit brought by Ernest E. Ball against the American Oyster com | pany was begun before Judge G.. W. Wheeler and 8 jury. The case is one in which nearly all of the oyster l land owpers in this town are deeply inter | tal Sn $700 damages from the American Oyster company for trespsss on oyster grounds leased by the plaintiff, but the money in- | volved is not the most important question | to be settled by the trial. ca the outcome of the trial the title of several oyster bed in and around this hsrbor depends, and naturally the owners of these beds are &c., riou.ly interested.
 On April F, 1893, the American Oyster company set it's dredgers to work on a plot of oyster ground bought by them and recorded in the town clerks office. The plot was known as the Asa Curties claim and lies half way between the jetty and the head of what is known as the beash on tho west side of the harbor. Ernest E. Ball, the plaintiff in the above suit, had rented this lsnd from parties who claimed to own 1t. They claim that they held the land according to the designations made in 1855 on map of the oyster beds made at that time by John Miller, now of Waverly. Ill. Their deed oi title of the property had never been recorded, as 1t was not customary to record designations of oyster beds in those days. Ball claims that he alone has right to the oysters on the bed in question and the American Oyster company claim to own the bed as shown by their title re. corded. The plaintiff in order to prove hit title brought MT. Miller, who made the old map, here from Illinois to testify in regard to the designations or boundaries of the bsds in 1855. The case will occupy two or three days.

ute their share to progress. If you once accept the idea that necessity is the mother of invention, instead of regarding inven- tion as coming from heaven knows where, you ,sn see how high wages stimulate it.
 To sum up, If this protection gives us money and men, and our vast country needs both. 1t may show why we have so two jobs hunting one man is to keep on making new mills and try to prevent the committee on ways and means from pull ing down old ones.
 A REFUGE FOR FIFE COMMITTEE.
 "But," says some gentleman fuller of political economy than of ssnse, "wby do you not transfer your capital from these protected industries to the more pronta- blea"
 Yes, that would be good idea. You will commence in West Virginia and taks up the coal mine holes and stick them down somewhere else, unless we can utilize them as places of refuge for the committee after the election.
 FRANCE AND GERMANY.
 Now as to France and Germany. The gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Harter) makes the same blunder which he charges on us. He ssys the tariff makes lower wages, and asks us to compare the three countries, saying they all are the same, except the tariff. I do not read history that way England had centuries of peace or distant war, while both France and Germany were the battlefelds of Europe.
 To compare either of these nations in machinery or wealth to England, 100 years in advance of them both by reason of her history before 1850 and her tributary prov inces, is absolutely fsrcicsl.
 There is still another argument which I desire to present out of the large number yet unused. What has made England richa It Is the immense profits which come of converting raw material into manufac7 tured goods. V
 So long as she can persuade the rest of the world to engage in the work which is the least profitable and leave her the most 1 enriching, she can we'll be contented.
 We are the only rival that England fears | for we alone have in our borders the pop. ulstion and the wages, the raw material, and within ouEselyss the great market

Aside from the suggestions which
precreatiee nature in every kingdom
offers to awaken child's curiosity in
the country, there is too, far more
gossip indulged in by grown people,
which is overheard by children, than
takes place in city homes.
The expectant or newly arrived heir
in the neighbor's house is made q sub
ject of discussion week after week by
the country mother and her visitors,
and their children who are playing
about the door listen and ponder over
what they have heard. II they ask
their mothers to explain, they are sent
away with sharp reproof, and told
that they will ''get good whipping
II they ask any more such questions"
A girl who lost her good name by in
discreet conduct said to me once: "It
is no wonder l did not behave myself.
l heard every sort of subject dis
cussed in my presence by my mother
and the neighbors, and when became
consumed with curiosity and asked my
mother to explain what I had over
heard, she gave me push and told me
to shut my mouth and go about my
business 1 went to others for in
formation, who were less safe in
structors than she would have been"
The town bred woman may be no
less addicted to gossip, than her coun-
try sister, but it rises in different chan
nels, and is seldom indulged in before
her children. Children do not psrtici-
pate in the mothers visits with callers
and do not hang about doors and win

A COLLEGE GIRLS REVENGE.
Tho President Was Punished and ths
Girls Were Happy.

Tho President Was Punished and the
Girls Were Happy.
''They may talk about the college
boys and their hazings and tricks, but
for real genuine fun you can't beat the
college girl" said young freshman to
the writer the other day. Last year
you know the mems college is right
near our seminary, and SO they call on
us every evening-the president made
q new rule.
He declared that we must dismiss
our guests at 9:3O, and we decided we
would not do it, After great deal of
plotting and planning we hit upon a
delightAl plan, and it was great sue
cess. The boys secured big basket
and two ropes and a pulley for us, and
this we hid during the day and at night
fastened to two great hooks on the
sill of our study window. The boys
sent up their cards in the basket, and
then after inspecting them with a
lantern to make sure they were not
burglars we hauled them up.
But one night the grave and dig
nified president caught US and planned
little surprise for us. He found one
Of the boys cards in our rooms and
placed it in the basket. 1t worked
beautifully and we hauled him half
way up before anyone thought Of
using the lantern. Then Miss Fly
away held it out the window and took
peep at him. One glance at the
spectacles and bald head was enough.
1t was lucky for that president that
we did not let him fall to the ground
in our horror and amazement, but we
held on to the ropes until we decided
what to do.
I'VE couldn't let him down again, he
would only come up and catch US, and
we couldn't drop him. bad as he was,
and we certainly didn't intend to help
him carry out his plan by hauling him
up. SO we compromised by securing the
ropes and letting him hang therAin
midair. He begged and implored to
be let down, offered US any bribe we
could wish for, and wasted more elo-
quenoe on US in that first hour than he
did during his yearly lectures. Butw
had no visitors that night; he amused
us and we wanted revenge, SO we left
him. He tried to jump, to climb down
the wall and up on the rope. but failed
In everything. At last he howled,
yelled like an Indian till every ono in
thu town was aroused and even the
bows turned out to see the terror of

Instead Of treating your boy like q

thy. 1t is not his fault that his curl
osity is awakened regarding the most
important subjects in the uni

The following communication and DO.
EN- find in my mail this morning. :
take great pleasure in putting the poem
and letter in these columns, for they
both breathe spirit of unshackled af-
hatus that is all too rare in this age Of
conventionality. 1t comes to me here in
the old world as breath Of new mown
hay and wild thyme might kiss the cheek
of worn and cynical statesman whose
boyhood was in the meadows of the far
away country and who bathed his feet
in the dew that hung upon the slender
blades of the blue grass and wallowed in
the warm and fragrant hay.
Carping critics may say that the au-
thor's meaning is not always clear, but
the same thing has been said of Judge
Cobb, who did not know where he was
at; also of Browning. Poets must not
be too specific.
Others will claim that Mr.. Molen has
forfeited his poetic license by shying
'bough" and ''roar" in the stanza devot-
ed to Marion, but very likely he gets
his license from Governor Tillman and is
not restricted in any way or compelled
to close up at 12 o'clock, as others are.
And what true ring there is to the
expression, "The Romans of Rome" 1t
is the glad, free lope of a grass fed Pega-
sus with unshod feet. No nineteenth
century toe calks mar the poetic feet of
William NJ. Molen of Charleston, S. C.

Or yet who has given US such a clear
view of the swamp without the expense
of going there? Who has SO graphically
described ''the native playing squirrel
sitting on the trees bough," the 'touch-
me-not-or-d -death-will -ensue on my ma
tive-soil' snake?
Of course these are only selected STAN
Zas taken from longer poems, and very
likely the entire poem might not read SO
well, but where will we find such a
string of opals? Who has yet done full
justice to the cigar?
