Court Notes.

SouIt IN''Ss'
The Goddard case has developed no
interest for the reading public NJ 10 tn"
present stage of proceedings. The IT.

been repeated several times before.
The only variation of the old story OF

Il shy country lass, of H"rhaps Il, CONS
ely in appearance and modest III de
meanur She was mercifnIly handled
by the attorneys, but made no startling
revelations. The only point made was
the fact that she was engaged to marry
the deceased, SSicrs. She had been en-
gagged to him for four months, prior to
the fatal 18th of May. Miss pixley also
testified that Mrs. Ward had made the
statement that the witness was the
cause of the shooting
The prosecution introduced - wit
nesses. They consumed some ten days
in taking testimony. The defense will
use an equal number of witnesses, but
they will probably not require rs nlucn
time as the other side did, in the pre-
sentation Of their ease. The best au-
thorty believe the case will he con-
cluded about the last of next week.
The officers of the court are very
obliging to the public and the wit
ncsses. The Judge from time to time
has offered cOurtesies to the newspaper
men. The lesser editor of the Tribune
is the only member of the hard work
ing fraternity in the city that has
leisure for such recreation. The clerk
and the reporter have oblieingiy fav-
ored the TELLER by supplying what
would otherwise have been lost to the
busy TELLER boys.
