The Foundation of the Prosecution
Gave Way.
Dominick Leonard, the man indicted
on complaint of Mrs. Louis Miller that
he had sold liquor to her husband with
out license, was yesterday acquitted
by a jury in Judge Willis court.
Leonard keeps a cigar store on Uni
versity avenue, and had been suspect
ed of dealing in wares that are COM
monty known to constitute the stock
, in trade of blind pig" The Millers
live in close proximity to his store,
and Mr. Miller had gone home more
than happy on one or two occasions.
Mrs. Miller "knew he got the whisky
at Leonard's,' or at least she told the
prosecuting attorney she knew it. But
when it came to testifying in the trial
of the case, it appeared that her knowl
edge was simply a case of she just
knew it, there, now. She had not seen
her husband coming from Leonard's
place, nor had he told her he came
from there. He just came through the
alley into the house, and she thought
he came from there.
But when Mr. Miller took the stand
and testified that he had come into
possession of his happiness down on
Wabasha street, the prosecution was
left without a leg to stand on, and the
jury took but little time in granting
Leonard his liberty

NIEDERHOEFER IS OUT,
No Longer Executor of the StahI-

Judge Brill yesterday filed an order
confirming the order of the probate
court removing Robert Niederhoefer as
executor Of the estate of Christ A. J.
Stahlmann, deceased. Mary E. Stahl-
MANN the widow of the deceased. pc
titioned for Niederhoefer's removal on
the ground that the estate consisted
almost entirely of stock in the Stahl-
mann Brewing company, and instead
of trying to settle up the estate in the
best manner possible, Niederhoefer was
depreciating the value of the stock by
circulating false reports regarding the
solvency Of the brewing company.
Judge Willrich granted a hearing and
found that. aside from this fact. Me
derhoefer had charged to the estate
money alleged to have been expended
in the payment of bills that were still
unpaid. He accordingly removed the
executor. who then took an appeal to
the district court. Judge Brilrs finding
of fact is practically the same as that
Of Judge Willrich. and he confirms the
order Of removal

ANCIENT SCARECROW.

Caesar could not enjoy society very
much for five or six days.
At Stonehenge there are still relics Of
a stone temple which the Druids used
as place Of idolatrous worship and as
sassination. On giblet day people came
for many miles to see the exercises and
carry home few outlets Of intimate
friends
After this Rome sent over various
great federal appointees to soften and
refine the people. Among them came
General Agricola, with a new kind Of
seed corn and kindness in his heart.
He taught the barefooted Briton to go
out to the pump every evening and
bathe his chapped and soil kissed feet
and wipe them on the grass before retir-
| ing, thus introducing one Of the refine
| cline.
Along about the beginning of the
Christian ''Erie,' says an elderly Eng
lishman, the Queen Boadicea got so dis
gusted with the Romans, who carried on
there in England just as they had been
in the habit Of doing at cutting
up like Halloween party in it's junior
year-that she got her Britons together,
had steel dress made to fight in COM
fortably and not tight under the arms.
Then she said, 'Is there any one here
who hath a culverin with him?' One
was soon found and fired This by the
Romans was regarded as an opening Of
hostilities. Her fire was returned with
great eagerness, and victory was won in
the city Of London over the Romans,
who had taunted thequeen several times
with being seven years behind the be-
ginning Of the Christian era in the
matter Of clothes.
Boadicea won victories by the score,
and it is said that under the bosom of
her wrath $1,000 Roman warriors kiss
ed the dust. AS she waved her scepter in
token Of victory the hatpin came out Of
her crown, and wildly throwing the ''old
hot thing" at the Roman general she
missed him and unhorsed her own
chaperon.

came the Phenicians and the Cartha-
ginians for their tin.
These early Britons were suitable
only to act as ancestors. Aside from
that they had no good points. They
dwelt in mud huts thatched with straw.
They had no currency and no ventila-
tion-no drafts, in other words. Their
boats were made Of wickerwork plas-
tered with clay. Their swords were
made Of tin alloyed with copper, and
after brief skirmish the entire army
had to fall back and straighten its
blades.
They also had short spears made with
rawhide string attached, so that the
deadly weapon could be jerked back
again. To spear an enemy with one of
these harpoons and then, after playing

ran the place, and no one could be a
Druid who could not pass civil service
examination.
They believed in human sacrifice, and
often of a bright spring morning could
have been seen going out behind the
bush to sacrifice some one who disagreed
with them on some religious point or
other.
The Druids largely lived in thewoods
in summer and in debt during the win
ter. They worshiped almost everything

From the glad whinny Of the first

teenth century the history Of Great
Britain has been dear to her descendants
in every land, meath every sky.
But to write a truthful and honest
history of any country the historian
should, that he may avoid overpraise
and silly and mawkish sentiment, reside
in foreign country or be SO situated
that he may put on false mustache
and get away as soon as the advance
copies have been sent to the printers.
The writer of these pages though Of
British descent, will in what he may
say guard carefully against permitting
that fact to swerve him for one swift

Caesar was broad man from a reli-

the Druids before the grand jury. For
utterlng such sentiments as these the
Drulds declared his life to be forfeit and
set one of their number to settle also
with him after morning services the
question as to the matter of immersion
and sound money.
