presided over by Justice Cox.
The seven jurynien were present, and the

become sufficiently familiar with the sub
division to give testimony. The witnesses
who had been.ealled We're Lester A. Barr,
James ]. hampton. ChariesP. Stone, Charles
Early, l.. N. Saunders, and Albert +. Fox
GAVE THE REASON.
Attorney Thomas arose in court and said
+ that since having these gentlemen sum
noned he had learned that they could not
testiry. S0ne~uf them aiu Lot even know
where the subdiyision-Dennison & Leigh
ton's-is located.
Two OF them, be said, were interested
owners, and for that reason declined to ap-
pear as witnesses. He therefore asked for
postponemen Mt until tomorrow morning.
provided the other side did not choose to
initiate the case. .as:i
Mr.. Nathaniel Wilson. for the respondents,
objected to taking the first step.
1T is against the law" be facetiously
observed.
"The government has had about two and
half years in which to prepare for these
proceedings" Mr.. Wilson added, land
more than two weeks upon this particular
case. Counsel should be ready.
"A few hours' delay will uf course make
but little difference if we are assured that
the District will be ready at the time TO
which the case viii be postponed

"How can they inform themselves iu

BURST OF BADINAGE.
''They are not like your clients observed
Mr. Thomas. They can easily acquire all
needed information today"
t|.The trouble is,' returned Mr.. Lipscomb.
''that they will get their information from
you. Our clients do not" and the incident
closed with this burst of badinage.
Itwas announced by Justice Cox that the
lease would go over without objection un-
til tomorrow, but that criminal court pro-
ceedings would Rave the preference al the
opening of court.
1t was understood that Mr.. Thomas
would sometime during today submit to the
court the form of notice that had been
prepared for property owners In each of
! the other forty six subdivisions where
there had been failures to make response
to the original notice.
The subdivision under present considera-

are expensive and teachers scarce.
Miss Rockefeller considerably asks
her mothers Bible class Of young men
to skate at the same time and the
young people have a grand time, pair
ing off together as they glide around
the electric-lighted eXpanse OF lake.
There are refreshments afterwards,
and, mayhap, luxurious carriages carry
all home. In the midst OF 1t all MISS
Edith, the ideal young hostess, beams
with delight. These skating evenings
cost her a prettier penny than would be
needed for a grand city ball, because
the supper is finer, the music more eX-
cellent and the souvenirs that the
guests carry away cost more. But that
is not he point!
But the prettiest of all her good deeds

that is grateful to rich and poor alike

to help her carry her gifts there.
Every Thursday afternoon she goes
with great bouquets of flowers in her
arms and a book or two, with a little
blue coat trOtting by her side, also well
laden, to read books to tired old women
and sick young girls. Nor does she
nick out the stupid books. She reads
them bright Trilby, beautiful Marie
Corelli. stately Weyman and fascinat-
ing Conan Doyle. She talks to them
about the books and supeculates with
them upon Sherlock Holiness Undue
tions. and the possible ending Of the
stories. She is quick, sweet voiced
reader, too.
HOW MCCORMICK FELL IN LOVE.
tt is so seldom that a man gets such a
home angel that it is worth while
knowing how Harold Mccormick, that
clean-faced young man, hampered by
good looks and so much money, happen
ed to make such a good selection. As
matter Of fact, young Mccormick has
always admired Miss Rockefeller from
afar. on account of the camaraderie she
enjoys with her father. One night at
little gathering at the Rockefeller
house the host, Mr.. Rockefeller was
asked to play.
q cannot play tonight" he replied
laughingly. but a little sadly. because
Edith is not at home She plays the
cello to my violin, and when am max
ing a mistake she touches me gently
with her elbow, and look around for
what is wrong. I get the credit, and
she does the work beforehand, so as 70

Don't ask me to play when Edith IS

This delighted the young man who is

naturally bright features became very
lovely to him. At Christmas her sister

boxes which Edith had filed for poor

clouds of worsted crotched by the same
nimble fingers. 81 want that girl for
my wife" young Mccormick said TO his
father. Get her if you can, my son,
replied Mccormick, senior, seeing the
all-around worth in a way even his son
failed to do, but manage it in the old
fashioned way. Steal her away on
horseback at dead Of night; for it is the
only way you will ever get her. Her
father'll fight you from the start

could they let her 90 easily? Then

The young woman was to travel abroad
a year, and the young man finish at
Princeton. On the day OF his gradua-

AS one of the instances Of this young

that during that long year abroad she
never relaxed a minute of her attention
to her father to write home TO her
fiance. and that she allowed his letters
to lie unopened until she had assorted

good as herself is told by the fact that

The young woman who will make the
most brilliant match Of the year., Miss
Edith Rockefeller, whose engagement
to young Harold Mccormick has Just
been announced, is of a personality so
different from any other of the great
heiresses of America that her marriage
will bring a new element into promi-
nent and wealthy domestic life.
Miss Rockefeller is the youngest
daughter of John d. Rockefeller. who
is the richer of the two Rockefeller
brothers, oil magnates both of them,
and her tiance is proud son of McCor-
mick, the reaper king, whose inven-
tions have made a fortune for his de-
scendants in all perpetuity. or for hun
dreds of years yet to come.
To adequately estimate the millions
of these two young people would be as
impossible as to count the dollars
which the great farming machine will
make within few years, or the mil
lions that will roll in with the filling
of the countless barrels of oil from the
Standards wells.
The fact of so much wealth, and the
