A ASAACQUITTED.
Did Not Assault Frank Truesde1l in
April Last.

April Last.
The trial of Asa Carkhuff on the
charge of having assaulted Frank
Truesdell in April of this year, came
on before Judge Baldwin of the Po-
lice Court, and a jury of six last Tues
day. It resulted in an acquittal of
the defendant.
The case might be considered a
notable one for several reasons. The
principal one, however, is on account
of the prosecuting witness, through a
law firm anxious to secure damage
cases, having threatened to commence
an action against Carkhuff for $1,000
damages for the alleged alienation of
the affections of Mrs. Truesdell dur
ing the past two years. Mrs. Trues-
left her husband last spring, leaving
here one evening for the Milwaukee
road, and there taking train for the
northern part of the State.
Asa Carkhuff boarded at the Trues-
dell residence, and when Truesdelrs
wife left him it was alleged that Asa
had something to do with the matter
Mr.. Truesdell consulted the law firm
in question and that firm advised the
5000 damage suit. The papers in
the latter we're never served, however,
Notwithstanding the statements of a
member of the firm.
Another reason why the case might
be considered a notable one is the
fact that no arrest was made until
nearly a year after the alleged assault
was made. What the object was in
holding off so long is not known, but
it is understood that an attempt was
being made to extort smart money
from Mr.. Carkhuff on the other case,
and that failing in doing this, COM
plant was finally made against him
for assault.
At the trial last Tuesday Attorney
Dolliff appeared for the defense,
County Attorney Clague appearing
for the State, although not previously
interested in the case in any manner.
The scene of the assault was admitted
to have been at the barn of Mr.. Trues-
dell, just north Of Ramsey Heights.
Mr.. Truesdell stated that Carkhuff' s
assault was violent one, and that he
used language from the swearing vo-
cabulary to which the prosecuting
witness took a decided exception to.
Carkhuff denied all the allegations
made by Truesdell and in proof of his
statements called in the mother of
Mrs. Frank Truesdell, Mrs. VIM.
Smith, and the latter testified practic-
ally that Mr.. Truesdell was talking
through his hat. Ida May Smith also
appeared for the defense and gave evil
dence tending to corroborate the story.
The case then went to the jury of
six. That body was out only short
time 1t returned a verdict of not
guilty, upon which the defendant
laughed heartily, and gave each mem
ber of the jury piece of silver with
which to buy the cigars. Judge Dol
lift, the attorney for the defense, took
another brace on himself, stroked bis
mustache, tapped his chest, and as
sumed an air of knowing it all the
time. To the latter Mr.. Clague
laughingly excepted. The exception
was over-ruled and Judge Dolliff was
allowed to continue wearing the smile
of conqueror.

from the low level of selfshness to the
high level of generosity, of good will to
all and Of helpfulness. Year by year the
circle of Christian influence has widen

in every part of the world, save in some
few remote regions, like the densely

He is known to the Buddhists as great
and good man, and when Japan made
war upon China, although the mass of
the Japanese are as yet nom Christian,
their soldiers were cautioned not to con-
duct themselves with the cruelty Of pa
gan times, but to remember that the
eyes of Christendom were upon them
and must not be scandalized by wanton
slaughterings of the helpless and the
innocent. 1t is true that these warnings
were forgotten at Port Arthur, but the
blood that was ruthlessly shed there
was abjectly apologized for by the mi

Quoted without the old time barbar-

It is also true that there was war;
that there are still occasional wars be-
tween Christian nations, and that all
wars are violations of the teachings of
Christ, but the fact remains that the
world is now practically at peace.

ElRsr Wac PRISONER OF 1912.
Lady Still Residing In Halifax Who Was
Captured by a Privateer.


Lady Still Residing In Halifax Who Was
Captured by a Privateer.
Mrs. William Gossip, whose maid
en- name was Anna Catharine Coade
and who was among the first batch
of prisoners taken by the Americans
in the. war of 1924, is living in
this city. Mrs. Gossip was born in
Halifax in 1909. Her father, Cap
tain Coade, was native of Ireland,
and for many years commanded the
Admiral Nelson, an ocean going
ship. Her mother was a daughter
of George Moren, United Empire
loyalist and in his day one of the
most prominent citizens of Halifax.
Mr.. Moren, before his residence in
Halifax, had been extensively en-
gagged in shipbuilding in New York
city, and, owing to his attachment
to the British crown, had suffered
the loss of nearly all his property.
Just previous to the breaking out
of the war Mrs. Coade, taking with
her her daughter, at that time about
4 years of age, went to St John s, N.
F., to meet her husband on his re-
turn from European voyage. But
the two were fated never to meet in
this world again. During terrible
hurricane, long remembered in New
foundland, the Admiral Nelson, with
all on board, was lost,
After waiting in St. Johns until
all hope was abandoned Mrs. Coade,
now a widow, embarked for Halifax
with her child on one of the sailing
packets that piled between the two
cities. Until within few hours
sail of Halifax they had an excellent
passage, but when almost within
sight of their destination they be-
came becalmed. With the returning
wind came an American privateer
on the proWl for prizes, which snap
ped them up. Their ship, the first
prize in the war, with all on board,
was taken to Salem, Mass. The pris-
oners, who were very well treated,
were allowed to retain their private
belongings, and after a few months
detention were permitted to return
home.
Mrs Gossip preserves a faint rec
objection of her imprisonment. Her
husband, the late William Gossip.
was, of course, known to almost
every Haligonian and esteemed and
respected by every one who knew
him. Ten years ago Alexander Law
son and Mr.. Gossip met in this city
Fifty-fve~years previously both had
worked in the newspaper business
in~Pictou-Lawson on The Colonial
Patriot Con which he began to work
in 1929 and Gossip publishing The
Observer, in 1881. The Patriot was
the first Liberal paper published in
the province. The Observer was the
Pictou Conservative organ. The real
question of difference between the
two was Kirk and anti Burgher.
Gossip came to Halifax in 1885
and founded, edited and publish
editor Is years the Halifax Times.
After that he published the Halifax
Church Times. In 1852 he dropped
out of the profession, and thence for
a third. Of century carried on an
extensive bookselling and stationery
business in Halifax He died a few
years ago, aged 80 years, leaving,
besides his wife, three sons-James,
in California; William, formerly
city engineer of Halifax, and DR..
Charles Gossip of Windsor-and two
daughters-Mrs. w. Fl. Wiswell and
one who resides at home and takes
care of her aged and invalid mother.

be surprised on entering n fashionable
woman's boudoir to see ball Of fluffy
cotton on the floor, which, on investi-
CATION, will resolve itself into o long
haired and long-tailed Angora.
They are not all white; in fact, they
are to be had in all the colors and stripes
of ordinary cats. The white ones are
the most valuable, and the beautiful
gray and white come next. Long hair,
beautiful eyes, and the fine bushy tails,
which sometimes grow to I'm nstonish'
ing size. are the principal character
istics of these fashionable pets. At the
Exchange for Woman's Work they have
received several requests to. hunt UP
well-conducted and pedigreed Angoras,
and the new industry seems TO be
quite thriving.
The cats are very clever. Many OF
them are used in trick animal tronpes,
and great deal can be taught them.
AS in the matter of pets, here again the
white ones are the favorites, being more
effective on the stage. A fancier who
deals largely in small pets, and es.
pecially cats, says he has now several
orders for Angoras for exhibition pur.
poses. One man has ordered two, which
ere now on their way from Paris, and
if they, too, prove success, six more
will be imported for the same pur.
pose.
The principal places from which the
cats come are London, Paris and diff.
ferent parts Of Germany. Many are
raised here, and the kittens are sold
when quite young, but they are n risky
purchase, being rather difficult to raise.
The hair grows longer with time, some.
times growing quite bushy on a cat
which lives to a revered old age, IL
years or a little more being the length
of life allotted these little pets. But to
choose ones favorite for the length and
beauty of its hair is an obvious mistake,
for it necessarily means less years in
which to enjoy its society.-N. Y. Her
