With altar and organ hidden beneath a
bank of orange blossoms, roses, daises and
ferns, its auditorium filled by the elite Of
our colored society, the old School Street
Baptist Church renewed It's charm OF youth
and became the scene of yet another we'd
ding, the beauty OF which taxed the repu-
tation that has already been given to this
cooling month of Jnne.

enviable parties to the ceremony were Mr..
John Garry Spicer of Attleboro., and Miss

Leach vx. Leach.

The case Of w. T. Leach against
Robert Leach for unlawful detainee
came UP for trial for the second time
last Friday before Squire J. M. De-
Moss The testimony was substantial
iy the same as on the former trial. but
must have been more conclusive to
the jury, as they we're not long in
bringing in verdict in favor of the
plaintiff. The case has been appealed
to circuit court and will probably be
tried next October.
This case has aroused considerable
interest, If not bitterness, in Missouri
township where all the parties reside
And much OF this feeling was so mani
tested at the trial of the case last Fri
day as put some of the parties
to considerable trouble, if it does not
result in their being fined for con-
tempt of court. During the progress
on the trial and while Capt. Wallace
was addressing the jury for the plain
ua. several of the partisans of w. T.
Leach INDUCED in some boisterous
demonstrations in his favor, such as
claPping Of hands and stamping with
the feet Mr.. Shaughnessy COM
planned to the court, Squire DeMoss,.
of such demonstration as con-
tempt of the court and an attempt to
influence the decision of the Jury by
ioforming them that the sympathies cf
his neighbors we're with the plsintif.
Squire DeMoss said that If Mr..
Shaughnessy would make affidavit in
forming the court Of The names of the
persons he would summons them fox
contempt Accordingly that gentEe-
man did file an affidavit iuforrning
him that the plaintiff, w. T. Leach.
Bert Webb and John Maddox had to
his knowledge, so applauded. The par
ties were thereupon arrested and upon
application the hearing of the mater
was postponed to July and, in otder

His creative powers were so great
that he did not confine himself to in
dividual practice, but has constituted
himself counsel extraordinary to the
profession, and is now travelling
rncogRiio as a vendor of bath tubs to
advise with the attorneys in important
trials In the courts, bo,h civil and
criminal. He was up at Liberty the
other week during the Foley murder
tnal and has advised defendants at
torneys how they may surely acquit
him, or the state how it may as GER
tainly convict on the next trial.
He gave US an Illustration of his
originality in desperate emergencies
which, though we cannot even family
reproduce the dramatic effect of his
recital, We will try to give, in proof of
the trauscendent genius of the man.
The AtHs IN gro OF his exploit was

one Of those kind of lawyers that in
Sest almost every community who had
an unmarried female client who de-
sired to levy $4,000 tribute of a rich
resident bachelorsunder the guise of a
suit for seduction under promise of
marriage. Doubtless she was a per
son Of unsavory reputation for virtue
and veracity (as all this fellows ac-
quaintsp >es of both seves seem to bel,
and having no corroboratng or crlm-
mating evidence to support her own
declaration If became necessary to
supply the missing link before her law
yer felt safe in submitting the case to
the jury. The rich bachelor was still
in b6issful ignorance of the conspiracy
that was forming against his bank ac-
count. In the very nick of the emer-
gency our Jersey smart Alec" set the
machinery of his ponderous brain in
motion and soon ground out the fol.
lowing plan to obtain the convincing
evidence OF the 6SIpzs dflIch. The
simplicity q of the idea and the
potentiality of the proof when it was
obtained forcib.y illustrates both the
artlessness and the fearful power Of
genius. The rich bachelor wore shirts
having those flaps (ot uncertain use)
on the lower extremity OF the bosom
but on which. unfortunately for hun.
he had placed the initials Of his name.
The plan, which worked beautifully
and smoothly as do all the inventions
of real genius, was for the female
client to conceal at some convenient
place about her person a pair OF sharp
shears, invite the uususpecting bache-
lor to a private Iutcrview and in an
ungUaTded moment detach tia. in-
eliminating a>p from his shirt front

stances il has been impossible to get
at a statement Of facts that receives

that Mr.. Hyde would accept Sss 50 10

left that amount in the Farmers bank
for him. Mr.. Hyde understood him

formed him that the amount he had
deposited was not in accordance with

Criminal Matters.

The case OF the state vs. Grant Lat
Teton, the II-ycar-o!d son Of N. y.
Littleton, who lives On the Samuel
Dinsmore farm about Our miles south
east Of town, was tried before Squire
DeMoss last Tuesday. He was
charged, on the complaint OF Richard
Hayes, col. with destroying public
property by breaking the wiRdow glass
al the colored school-house IN the
Hurt district Hayes detected the
boy in The very act, and the defend
ant also confessed his guilt to Albert
Smith, another white boy The Lit
Teton boy was accompanied by
Alonzo Coy. a white boy of about his
own age, when he committed the dep.
redaton. This young vanda has
been causing people in that vicinity
considerable annoyance for a year
past by repeated depredations, in the
way Of pillaging watermelon patches,
opening gates and other <peoe Of bad
boy deviltry. The case was tried by
the court without n jury and the de-
fendant was fined S. and costs In
view of the tender years Of the boy
and the further fact that the payment
Of the fine and costs would wo(k a
hardship to defendants father, Prose
cutting Attorney Collet as an act of
humanity recommended and COD
senied that defendant be released cn
his good behavior, but that If, at any
time within SIX months, he should be
guilty Of any similar acts Of mischief,
then execution on the present judg-
ment might issue against him.
