sides Of an interesting case In the county 'oui
before Judge Hurd and jury yesterday ai'erhoo"'
Brown was the defendant TO charge OF ropoers
In the second degree and Toney was the coii'
planning witness against HIM
When the little fellow called TO the stand
Judge Hurd asked him II he knew the nature or
an oath Toney looked at the Judge wondernSly
for a moment and then replied in the negative.
How old are you. my boy?" asked the Judge
"Ten, sir" was the prompt reply

His Honor decided that the youngster had quail
fed as a witness and he went the stand and
told his story.
He said that on Sunday morning. January g. his
mother had given him a quarter, and told him 10
go TO the barber-shop Of Raphael Patrone, at No
30 Grand-st., and get his hair cut. Brown was
standing outside the barber-shop when he got
there and followed him in. and asked him II he
had any money. Toney told him that he had a
quarter but that he was going to use 1t TO pay
for having his hair cut Brown demanded the
money and when the boy refused TO give IL up ne
seized his hand and squeezed 1t until the quarter
fell out Toney began to cry. and the man pnl
the money in his outside coat pocket. a crowd
gathered but Brown told them he was the boy 5
father. and as Toney crying too hard 10 say
anything distinctly paid any more atten-
ton to him. Toney ran home and told his mother
and she hurried back with him TO the barber-shop.
They found Brown still standing outside. He de-
MED that he had robbed the boy but when he was
searched the quarter found in his outside
pocket, where Toney said he had put it.
Brown said that he drunk that day, and II
he had robbed the boy he did not remember any
thing about H. He lived in New-York, and got up

"He wouldn't give drinks to any one but friends

The witness said that he couldn't get enough 10

a saloon in Grand-st. he drank much that he

His New-York landlady went on the stand and
said that his story was a probable one. far as

He seemed TO have mania for getting drunk on
Sundays and he usually went to Brooklyn TO DO so.
The jury disagreed. after long absence. Brown

Johnson succeeded Hamlin in the sec
ond place on the ticket. That year the
Democrats held their first convention
in Chicago, and nominated Mcclellan
and Pendleton. In 1865 they went to
New York for the only national con-
vention ever held in that city, and
named Seymour and Blair as their
leaders. In the same year Grant got
his first nomination in Chicago, with
Colfax in the second place on the
ticket.
In 1872 Grant was renominated a,
Philadelphia, with Wilson, their Demo
cratic opponents, Greeley and Brown,
being nominated at Baltimore-the last
national political convention held in
that city. In 1876 Tilden and Hen
bricks were nominated at st. Louis,
and Hayes and Wheeler at Cincinnati.
The latter city also held the next Demo
cratic convention, that of 1880. which
placed Hancock and English in the
field, their opponents, Garfield and
Arthur, being named in the Exposition
Building in Chicago.
In 1881 the Democrats came back to
Chicago, ana, by naming Cleveland
and Hendricks. ended a long line of
Republican victories, those nominees
defeating Blaine and Logan, who were
also named in Chicago. In 1883 the
Democrats nominated Cleveland and
Thurman AT st. Louis, and the Repub-
leans named Harrison and Morton in
Chicago. In 1892 the Republicans took
their Harrison and Reid convention to
Minneapolis, and the Democrats named
Cleveland and Stevenson in the Chicl.

A fifth of a million of dollars for Il

of it. That amount of money invested
at 6 per cent. would bring in a tidy lit

month. Most women would be willing
to accept the responsibility of worry
ing along on $4,000 a year. and run
the risk of affording one or two be
coming gowns in the bargain. The
lump sum Of 100000. which this rate
of interest represents. has already been
invested in a coronation robe for Alex

For a few hours on the 24th of May
