On. did you hear the drowsy wind
Go signing half asleep?
And did you feel across your mind,
A dreamy wonder creep?
Somewhere, far off, a bird sang low,
Cicadas Jared the grass
Mayhap you saw, l do not know
Mayhap you saw me pass.
And Love was by me, and Delight,
We three did trudge along,
Cumbered with sweets, from morn TIL
And overnrled with song.
Behind US burned the summer land,
Fair Autumn lay before
And We-oh, we went hand IN mana
A-singing ever more!
And then you knew the lazy wind
Was signing half asleep;
But did you feel across your mind,

Courier-Journal: Judge Parker of Ar
kansas has just died, leaving behind the
unique distinction OF having imposed the
death penalty on more men than any
other jurist in The United States. This
may seem a sort OF gruesome bOEduet
to lay upon a dead mans grave, but
when we consider the increasing number
OF homieides in the Cnited States, and
the small number of executions Cess than
the lynchings), il is not such a mean
tribute after all. 1t would be interest
ing TO know how Judge Parker managed

owned a sloop called the Maggie. heard
that Doser was looking for a man 70 haul
his goods. and hunting him up got the Sob.
The goods were loaded on the boat and a
start made aor this city. IN some manner
the effects got wet and we're ruined from
the salt water. and OF course when poser

erickson for soms'hing over 500. The
latter objected 20 this. ard after wrsnG~
ling great deal 10 vas finally decided 70
submit the matter 20 three disIntsrestef
parties for decision. These men decided
after investigation that sSe weuld REIN

The eity's Law department was busAy
engaged yesterday Ia defending cases
brought by private citizens who alleged
that they had sustained Injuries because
of the unsafe condition Of sidewalks and
other property under municipal control.
Corporation Counsel Scott and City AItor-
pey De Bruler were I'm Judge Humes' court
defending the city In the case brought by
Harris Elster for 5000 damages, ana As
sistant Corporation Counsel Frank Steele

Both cases are being stubboTnly fought

taken up Ia The testimony OF these men
and of City Engineer Thomson. all OF
whom testified that the city never did a
stroke Of work On Railroad avenue IN the
repairing or improving line. City Engi-
neer Thomson explained the grades. lines,

IL in a particularly open condition Brady
a Gay, who are representing Teake, are
making hard fight, and viii no doubt use
TO good advantage in their Arguments the
recent death of Judd Noble near the same
place that Take went through.
The Elster case was first taken before
the city council In the form OF a claim for
damages, but was tabled after a thorough
investigation by the joint committee on
claims. The plaintiff claimed in his petit
ton TO the council that he had fallen
through the sidewalk leading from Sixth
avenue south to Fifth avenue south on
Washington street while on his way 10
work on November q. 1894. and received a
severe fracture OF the leg. Elster told his
story yesterday 10 jury before Judge
Humes, saying board broke. throwing
him to the ground and breaking MS leg
badly. He had several witnesses, who tes-
titled that few minutes after the accident
happened they examined the sidewalk and
found the board thar had given way be-
nearn ElsteF = weight, and all characterized
IL as very dangerous. The principal wit
nesses for the city were the members eff the
finance committee who visited the locality
soon after the matter was called TO the
attention OF the council. and all OF them
said they could find no rotten timbers in
the sidewalk, neither could they detect
any new boards. The only thing thew
found was one board slightly overlapping
the other and over which Elster may have
stumbled. This about concluded the tes-
ttmony and the case viii 90 20 the Jury
this morning.
