During the past week a number of
minor criminal cases were tried, but
the case attracting the greatest atten-
ton was that of James J. Spear against
Eugene Sweeney for $25, 900 damages
for njuries received by the plaintiff in
an attack upon him by the defendant,
upon the latter's farm in Clyman. The
trial lasted two days, and on Friday

preme court. Harlow Pease appeared
for the plaintiff and J. E. Malone and
J. J. Dick for the defendant.
The murder case against Martin Pts
sikanski on the charge of having admin

a Pleasant Affair.

The members of Watertown lodge,
No 81, were the hosts of social party
at Odd Fellows hall, Monday evening.
1t was one of those pleasant, homelike
gatherings for which our local orders
have long been noted, and was attend
ed by large number of the city's re-
preventative people. An elaborate
supper under the direct supervision of
the "better halves" of the lodge occu-
pied the guests first attention and en-
joyed the proverbial tendency of sup
plying the wants of the "inner man"
in a way that was at once laudatory to
the ladies and highly satisfactory to
the beneficiarIes, there being not
thing lacking to perfect repast The
supper over, the card tables were
brought into requisition, and what with
other pastimes, social intercourse and
music of a various nature, the hours
passed in the utmost enjoyment until
midnight. No definite programme of
entertainment had been arranged. and
everything on this score was informal

voice than on this occasion. Instru-
mental music of a pleasing quality was
furnished by Max Gritzner's string
quartette, consisting of violin, man

Miss Bessie Throne favored the assem-
blage with a recitation, "In the Usual

colored people one night and was informed
that q new preacher was about to be tried.
1.-THE minister arose back of pulpit that
had been improvised from barrel turned
bottom upward, on which was a lighted
candle stuck in q bottle. He began to
read the Bible, but stumbled at every word,
spelling some throughout before pronounc-
ing them. A man in the rear said, Go
ahead with your Sermon.' And the preach.
er ceased reading. He stood up at full
length, and in the dim, Pickering light OF
the lone candle looked more like-an appa-
rition than man.
stHis subject was The Judgment Here

ity for which the colored race is noted. In
going about during thewar be had become
imbued with the military spirit, so he be
gan by giving vivid word picture OF the
hosts Of heaven lying in their tents asleep
the night before the judgment day. Then
he worked up to point where the bugle
sounded to prepare for tfe descent upon
the sinful world. He pictured the heaven
" hosts hur.iedIy running out OF their
tents to fora In line Of battle, with the
Great Commander in front. Then he de-
scribed the stiffness that reigned when all
was ready, awaiting the command to adj
vance.
SPY this time the whole congregation,
including myself, were sitting with nerves
strained, excited in the extreme, and as
the preacher described the tramp, tramp,

earth saw several members, terrified, get
down under the benches. He then follow

preacher described the Commander detail

Death, terrified moan came from the
audience.
.'F'inalIy he brought the army OF heaven
down to earth just before daybreak and
had them resting on their arms awaiting
Gabriel's trumpet. He pictured at length
how quiet everything was; then, putting
his hand to his mouth, he initiated the bu-
gle call. which so terrified and completely
