Among the French of the Acadian
coast there still liuger many memories
of their early history and the old set
tiers will tell with gusto the tales that
have come down to them Of the landing
of PouUincourt and how he traded
with the Indians, how the Indians
came to love him and his people. and
how, to the savage taste, there was
nothing so delicious as the bread that
the white men made. The Indians
themselves. though fond of this dainty,
could not be induced to make it. for
the labor OF grinding corn or wheat into
-four was too much for their love Of
ease. and rather than make -four they
preferred to do without bread. And

the colonies from Boston to Charleston.
Some prospered, some starved. EXiles

them was the sole source Of employ

was strange and where the people re-

of the poor exiles was very sad.
But time is a wonderful softener of
the asperities, both of nature and of
man. The ruin wrought by human

Quinlan took from the New City Hall

said he fixed the date on which he
saw Durrant and the girl approaching
the church by the aid Of his friend
Clark, with whom he went later in
the afternoon to see Clark's brother
In st Luke's hospital. The time he
took to go from the City Hall to Mis-
sion and Twenty-second streets was
about fifteen minutes. For the pur-
pose Of impeachment the defense
asked witness if he had ever been ar
rested. The prosecution objected and
the objection was sustained. The de-
Tense tried hard to get in the factthat
Quinlan had been arrested for an as
sault to commit murder, but as they
had to admit that Quinlan had been
acquitted, the whole matter was ruled
out. Quinlan was still on the stand

LINCOLN (Neb., Sept. 1.-THE Su-
preme Court this morning filed a de-
cision in the Omaha Fire and Police
Commission case. The decision, in
substance, declares the act constitu
tional under which the g board was
appointed. Upon the point raised by
the attorneys of the old board, that
Governor Holcomb did not attend the
meeting with Churchill and Russell
at the time the new board was named,
the court holds that the interests of
the State or municipality are not to
be jeopardized by the action of one
party.
In conclusion the court finds that
Broatch, Vandervort and Foster
are the lawfully constituted Board of
Fire and Police Commissioners of
Omaha.

The Durrant Trial.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 1.-THE de-
Tense is trying to break down every
witness Of the prosecution. AS each
testities, a long and apparent pur
poseless examination by the defense
follows, the sole object being, it seems
TO entrap the witness into some i'm
portant contradiction. No progress
has been made in this respect with
any witness. All who testified for the
people have stuck to their evidence
and remain 6rm and positive in
their Identification of Durrant as the
man last seer with Blanche Lamont.
Again on the stand, this time to
identify the photograph of Blanche,
although taken three years ago,
Maude said it was very much like
Blanche at the time she disappeared.
The defense objected vigorously to the
picture being introduced as an ex-
exhibit, evidently fearing it would
lead to the further Identification of
Blanche as Durrant's companion on
April 3d.
Martin Quinlan, an attorney, said
he had lived for ten years at Twenty
third and Mission streets, near Eman-
uel Church. He had frequently see
Theodore Durrant in the neighbor-
hood and knew him we'll by sight. On
the afternoon of April Sd he had an
engagement with David Clark at the
corner Of Mission and Twenty second
streets at four o'clock. About ten
minutes past four he saw Durrant and
a girl in a dark dress and leghorn
hat. They crossed Bartlett and
Twenty-secoud streets, going towards
Emanuel Church. They passed close
to witnoss and Durrapt's face was
turned towards witness. He was
listening eagerly to something the
girl was saying. The girl was carry
ing q package tied with a strap.
The defendants attorneys tried to
make Quinlan admit that he had
taken 30 many drinks that day that
he could not recognize any one and
that his testimony was practically
valueless. !Quinlan was required by
the defense to detail every movement
he made on April Sd, from the time
he rose till night. He told Of every
drink he took, and Durrant's attorney
