To the Editor Of the Free Press:
The article in your columns to-day upon
the late w. c. Bradley, in which the opin-
ion of his blographcr Hon. Pliny II.
White, is given as to Mr.. Bradley's cali
bre, recalls to my mind what my father
used often to say to me of him. My father
and Mr.. Bradley were for some years in
our State Legislature together, and judge
were warm friends, At all events my ia
Their always spoke enthusiastically OF Mr..
Bradley. and he has more than once told
me that "Bil Bradley had more brains
than all the rest of the Legislature" Re
ferring to those superst1tious notions, one,
of which my father often laughed about,
was Mr.. Bradley's wish always to see the
new moon over his right shoulder. He
always knew when is should be visible ana
II he was in doubt whore to look for it, he
would call n servant to look for 1t and re-
port to him In what direction 1t was to be
seen. that he might not chance to first
sight 1t over the left" Now, curiously
enough, have to confess that this story
OF my father about this weakness of n
man he considered truly great made so
strong an impression upon my own weak
brain. that to this day. deride the Silly no.
ton, much as ! may and do, feel a dis
agreeable sensation whenever I chance 10

beautiful, chaste orb-over my left Shout
der! But what I took up my pen for Is
this: Mr.. Bradley and Mr.. Webster-born
in the same year-were for long time
great friends, personal and political Two
men cast in the same giants mould. Az
ter Mr.. Websters speech upon the COM
promise measure OF 1850 possibly after his
death In 1882 Mr.. Bradley made a speech

Chicago, April 1.-The wheat market
opened very strong. Cables were higher
and the carly buying of May was first
CLASS. Prices held very firm all morning.
The main cause for the advance, however,
was the wintry condition in the North
west Improvement in foreign cables and
small Northwest receipts During the af-
ternoon the market receded, however, on
selling against calls. but the decline of q.
cents only brought in renewed buying
and the market kept within range of u
cent. There Is no winter wheat of any
consequence. The market for wheat
looks strong and will in all probability
rule higher. Corn and oats were strong
with wheat. oats have 20 very strong

With Emb, ,zzling 500.
ing-Much Amusement Caused by
Testimony of witnesses.

The Daughters OF Jerusalem were in evi-
dence this forenoon in Judge Miller's court
room and the secrets. signs and symbols Of
that mystic order were Landed about by
lawyers and witnesses, while the court
loungers had many hearty laughs ut the
twistings and turnings of the "sistern''
while under examination as witnesses.
Louisa Myers. worthy treasurer of
Veronica Court. No. IS, Daughters OF Jeru-
salem, a colored fraternal and beneficial
society, was charged with embezzling $50
from the funds OF the organization. The
first witness against her was Martha A.

sides at No. 1924 Ha yes Court.
Are you an officer of the Daughters of

Martha was asked about a number of
signs and symbols found by MIR. Mullo wney
in the bylaws OF the society.
II amt got no business telling our Sc
crets," she replied. .'If did what would be
the good of the society"
Coiored lawyers, Joseph II. Smith. Kicks,
Jones and Moss, were vigorously en-
ployed in the case, pro and con. They kept
up a fusiiade of questions and further COM
plicated the very much mixed case.
How do you know this woman en-
bezzled S20?" sternly asked Judge Miller,
who was fast losing his patience.
because she declared she would not
give up the money until she got Justice.
Where are your books?" demanded his
honor.

honor.
Jane could not he found and Eliza Tur-
