JOHN ALIENS YARN. He Lies to an Old Veteran to See What He'd
 Say.

Say.
 q went up to Chickamauga with Judge Newman and Col. Barbour Thompson" said Private John Allen to the Atlanta Constitution 'I walked about the field and heard hundreds of old fellows talk ing about the spots on which they had been wounded and telling all manner of marvellous stories. I was at not Chick amauga, but l was in other battles, and when man tells you that he can turn and pick out spots where all sorts of things occurred ip a, battle this many years afterwards you may put him down as a liar.
 Well, everybody up there was lying, and had to do little myself.
 "I was standing by the railroad station at the foot of one of the hills when an old veteran accosted me and asked if l knew when the next train left for Rome. "'No,' said I, this is the first time l have been here in thirty-tWo years, and, my friend. when l stand here and look upon this hill, recalling the charge l made up 1t through a shower of shot and shell, how I dashed my horse right through federal battery, leaping seven different cannons and emerged from a shower of bullets unscathed. I wonder that I am alive today
 AS the old fellow listened to my story his eyes filled with tears. He walked up and. putting his arm about me, said:
 "'Young man, you were spared for some great purpose. '"-Exchange.

SCORE ONE FOR MR.. DANA
he NEED NOT GO TO WASHINGTON,
SAYS JUDGE BROWN.
Tho Proceedings In the United States Dis
trict Coprt--A Repetition ofs
Similar Case,

NEW YORK, June 2i.-The decision In
the case Of the libel suit OF Frank y.
Noyes, OF the Washington star, against
Charles A. Dana. was handed down to-
day by Judge Brown. OF the United
States District Court.
The Judge decides that Mr.. Dana Is not
TO 80 TO Washington.
HISTORY OF THE CASE.
The suit against Mr.. Dana was insti-
tutSd by Frank B. NOyeS, editor OF tho
Washington star. and a resident OF the
State OF Maryland, which fact was deVel-
oped during the presentation OF the case
TO Judge Brown.
Noycs contended that he had been
libeiled I'm the sun, and took the matter
before the Supreme court for the District
OF Columbia. An indictment was found
by the grand jury OF the District OF Coz
lumbia on March last and forwarded
here to United states District Attorney
McFarlane, and an enort was made 10
remove Mr.. Dana TO Washington for trial.
The matter came nret before comfpis-
sioner Shields In FORMAL way. MI.
Mcf'arlane appeared there and Elihu
Root and Franklin Bartlett appeared as
counsel Tor Mr.. Dana. subsequently the
application 20 remove Mr.. Dana for trial
10 Washington came up before Judge
Addison Brown IN the United States
Court.
Mr. DANA ASSUMES ALL RRnPorsiBfifTr.s
Mr.. Dana there assumed all respoBsi-
biity for the publication OF the matter
complained Of and said TO be libellous.
on behalf of Mr.. Dana, Messrs. Root
and Bartlett argued against the remoAl
OF Mr.. Dana 20 Washington as without
warrant IN law and a violation OF the
constitutional right. Tho FIRST hearing
was had on April 9th last
Mr. Root contcnded that the offence
OF libel, such az was charged In the
Indictment was not an offence against
the United States statute laws enacted
by Congress for the District OF Column
bia. He presented TO the court the
fact that the indictment should not 90
assessed on an affidavit In the District
of Columbia. which I'm itself was viola
tfon OF the Fourth Amendment to thu
Constitution OF the United States.
MIR. Root asserted that the attack ON
Mr.. Dana was an attack on the Liberties
of the whole press, such as was war
ranted by no statute ever passed by Con-
gress.
Mr.. Root pointed out that the aues-
tion as TO whether Mr.. Dana could be
removed from his home was question
of grave Importance, az au"cung the
whole press of the United states. Tie
said that every newspaper man wastn-
dangered. and contended that II any Vio-
lati0n had been committed II had been
committed I'm New York, ana MIR. Dana
should be tried there.
Mr.. Bartlett presented hts argument
on plea, and Mr.. Mcfarlane closed
the hearing.
This Is the second attempt that has.
been made 10 take Mr.. Dana 70 Wash
ingtOn. The first was made by Boss
Shepard I'm a case almost similar to tne
last one Justice Blatchford heard the
argnmeht at the time.
Justice Blatchford ordered Mr.. Dana
TO be discharged.
