The nineteenth annual commence

| High School, held at the p. M.
| chnrch last Friday morning, was a
| fitting final of the years successful
work. At 10 o'clock the ten gradu-
ates took seats arranged for them on
the platform, which was followed by
| orchestral music, invocation by Rev.
II. X ent, music again, and then came
the well prepared and we'll delivered
address by DR.. McGregor, of Platte
tense earnestness on the Importance
of work and enthusiasm in their
truest sense, presenting his views in
such clear and simplified form as
to prove highly entertaining and in
structive to everyone in the large
audience as well as the class. All
who heard the address were much
pleased and felt well repaid for the
hour thus spent.

ercises in this manner is widely diff
ferent from the time-worn custom,
there are many who favor it, believ-
ing that it makes the last days of
the pupils life in school one of COM
parative ease and pleasant anticipa-
tions, instead of one Of struggle and
worry, with more or less dread, in
preparing for the occasion as hereto
fore. 1t certainly ought to result
equally beneficial, and surely does
away with a long, tedious program,
especially where the classes are as
large as those turned out from our
high school.

Communication From Arena.


EDITOR TRIBuNE:--
A few weeks ago an article APP
peared In your paper, purported to
have been written by a republican OF
this place, and the substance of
which was that the republican or
ganization of the town of Arena was
all gone to pieces on account of the
appointment of w. II. Jones as post
master ut this place. The effects of
the appointment, from party stand
point. was very much magnited by
the untruthful statement of the
writer in the following language:
The feeling here il so bitter that we
haven't a republican left in town
who would put up poster to save
the whole kit"
Well, well, that is n big one. In
Justice to w. II. Jones and republi-
cans of Arena except very few, az
Il member of the republican town
committee, would say although as
piring for the appointment myself,
was very much pleased with the APP
poiutment of Mr.. Jones, as | con-
slider him the most active worker for
the success of the republican ticket
in our town. Mr.. Jones is not a street
corner stump speaker, hut a quiet
worker who is constantly making
votes for republican victory.
We are more than satisfied that
when the campaign of 1898 and 1900
arrive, the republican organization
of this town will be greatly strength
encd by having Mr.. Jones at the
helm.

Suit for a $4,000
Fee.

charged.
Arguments Male by ExJudge ] F
Sullivan, Mr.. Cotton and General
w. H. II. Hart

After Attorney J. L. FassetI had tes-
titled yesterday that he was in Mr. Ber-
gins office and prepared the transcript on
appeal in the Blythe case from data fur
mis- he'd by w. H. H. Hart, ex-Judge J. F.
Sullivan, acting as attorney for Mr.. Ber-
gin, opened the legal game in the suit of
Thomas I. Bergin against Mrs. Florence
BY Hinckley by asking for a continu-
ance until he could secure the attendance
of ex-Judge John II. Boalt.
By agreement with the court each side
was allowed ninety minutes for argument,
Mr.. Sullivan to divide his time in an
opening and closing speech and Attor-
nevs A. l.. Hart, w. II. II. Hart and A. Y.
Cotton were to distribute their minutes
among themselves to suit themselves. In
this matter the members of the jury were
not consulted or in all probability the
length OF the speeches would have been
materially curtalled.
Mr.. Sullivan opened his address by the
usual congratulations to the jurors on the
near approach of the close of the case, and
impressed on them he i'm portance of the
work performed by Mr.. Bergin in securing
a result favorable 10 Mrs. Hinckley in the
Blythe estate litigation. H. said that the
ASNOAN ludL WDel Inc motion Tor
new trial was pending in Judge Coffey's
court William Henry II. Hart was not
present to make an argument on behalf
OF Mrs. Hinckley, but that Mr. Reroin
bore the brunt of the battle"
It was true, Mr.. Sullivan said. that John
CARRIER made an able argumen: on the law
! in general and particularly in response 10
Attorney Tow!e, and aiso that w W.
Foote made a brilliant address to the iurv
! touching the facts involved in speciai fea-
/ lures OF the litigation, yet it was Thomas
! l. Bergin who took up the arguments of
all opposing counsel and, point by point.
met and reluted the strongest positions
that could be presented by the opponents
! of Mrs. Hinckley.
Attorney Cotton opened the discussion
on behalf of the defense by invoking the
| pTlnciple that an attorney, when once
employed, cannot take advantage of his
/ position to secure increased compensa-
ton from his client. Mr.. Cotton insisted
/ That from the moment Mr.. Bergin was
engaged as attorney he was bound 10 lis
charge all duties of an attorney up to the
close Of the trial, and even up to the pres
/ ent time.
! Attorney A. l.. Hart followed bv giving
| review OF the relations of attorney and
client that existed between Mr. Bergin
and Mrs. Hinckley from the moment she

came here as little Florence Blythe up to
the present. He also referred 10 the duty
which a lawyer owes TO a client. and said
lat ii was beyond the power of Mr.. Ber-
gin to change the contractuaI relations
existing between them.
Mr.. Sullivan replied by vigorously de-
nouncing the oratoricaI excursions of
counsel on the other side. He asked the
jurors to disregard sentiment and to deal
out exact justice between the liugants at
the bar, looking only TO the facts in the
case.
Judge Hunts instructions covered the
technical questions involved and the Jury
retired for consultation at 4:20 P. NJ.
Judge Hunt returned to the court at
:45 P. NJ. and called in the jury. The
foreman stated that they had been unable
TO agree, and would, if they had been
called in at O'Clock, have given the same
answer. They had cast iour ballots and
they stood eight for defendant and three
for plaintiff.
They were allowed to return TO the Jury
room for fifteen minutes more, but there
was no alteration in the position and they
were DISCHARGED.
Attorney Bergin asked when the Judge
would set the case for trial again ana the
Judge replied that he could not say as
there were at least fortv cases ahead OF il.
