of hunters had trouble. His sport
ing permit was cancelled. He in
stituted big damage suit-$1O,OOO
against his opponents. Cunning
ham became disheartened and
tried to sell his hunting kit. He
could not find a purchaser. While
the damage case was pending the
defendants set a watch on Cum
ningham. The latter went down
EVA way with some 'bang-bang"
fans. Those who were on the trail
of Cunningham reported that he
INDUCED in shooting and brought
down at least one pheasant. Sew
eral witnesses gave this account.
The defendant was on the stand
most of yesterday afternoon. He
went into details and gave an ex-
tended report of everything. Cum
ningham claims that he did not
fire shot. He declared that those
who said he did any hunting were
mistaken. His assertion was that
he simply looked on and, though
urged to shoot, refrained from
breaking the law.
w. A. Kinney was special coun-
sci for the prosecution and conduct
ed the case alone. Messrs. Peterson
and Rosa defended Cunningham.
The lawyers made a hard fight.
The damage case is in a tangle
of technicalities. The disposition
of those behind the prosecution of
Cunningham is said to be to push
it. They are positive they have a
clear case. On the other hand the
defendant contends he is innocent.
Circuit Court was in session till
nearly II o'clock last night.

Pacific cable becoming ripe, his COM

There are several hundred of these
medals in the United States. In
letter just issued by Mr.. Demorest
this information is given:
The medal contests inaugurated in
New York City, April, 1886, having
become decided success, and an APP
proved method for interesting and
educating young people and listening
audiences in the principles of Prohibit
ton of the Liquor Traffic, it has been
thought best, for the purpose of plac-
ing the Contests on more permanent
basis, to make some notifications of
securing the Demorest Medals as tro-
phies of merit, and also to more effect
lively extend the gospel of prohibi-
tion.
The terms in future will be as fol-
lows:
A public meeting to be arranged,
for which the recitations will form
the programme, which may be inter-
spersed with music.
Three disinterested persons of intel
ligence are to be chosen to act as
Judges, for whom suitable blanks will
be furnished. Judges are advised to
avoid tie, as but one medal can he
presented at contest.
A competing class shall consist of
not less than six nor more than ten
persons.
When not less than six young per-
sons of either sex, between the ages
of twelve and twenty-five, shall recite
before an audience selections taken
from either of the three volumes
"From Contest to Conquest" the one
adjudged to have made the best reci-
tation will be awarded silver medal
in satin-lined case.
When not less than six of the silver
medals are secured by as many con-
testants, the winners will be entitled
to compete for gold medal.
When eight or more have won gold
medals, the holders may COM
pete for handsome gold medal stud
ded with diamonds.
On these terms the medals will be
presented by w. Jeafings Demorest
free of charge.
No one having won medal will be
allowed to compete again for the same
kind of medal. Three trials will be
allowed to each speaker for the silver
medal, two trials for the first gold
medal, but only one trial for grand
gold or diamond medal. No one
can receive the higher prize until the
lower ones are secured. At every con-
test new piece must be recited.
Admission tickets may be sold or
collection taken. All money above
expenses may be used in local pro-
hibition work.
Pastors, parents, teachers, officers
and members of the w. G. T. L. and
1. o. G. T., leaders of temperance and
religious organizations, schools, col
leges, and others interested, are in
vited to encourage the young people
under their direction or control to
learn the pieces and enter the con-
tests.
