Or bravcly fighting fell.

And impatient wait the fray,
And clear and strong comes answer
From tho boys who wore the gray.
Let the brcczes kiss "Old Glory
AS she floats DER land and sea,
She shall float above us also
Till suffering Cubas free.

But at our common oountry's call,

We Will write upon that bannen

Scoring every form of peril.

in Criminal Court No. yesterday OF the
larceny of a gold watch chain from Dem
mis- Lynch, was sentenced by Justice
Bradley to Imprisonment for six years in
the Columbus, o., penitentiary.
When Roberts was called before the
court for sentence he made a most feeling
appeal for mercy. He said he had an old
father at home, to whom he wanted to go,
and an aunt who is very dear to him.
He also said that drink was the cause of
all his troubles; he had often been in jail,
and when he was released he said he ex-
perienced feeling of liberty which he
could not control, and Immediately tried
to quiet this peculiar sensation with
drink of liquor. Then he found, he said,
that he lost all control of himself, and
ended by getting drunk.
1t was only while in this condition,
Roberts said, that he was tempted to COM
nit crime.
After hearing Roberts patiently. Justice
Bradley said to Roberts: Since when you
are released from prison you cannot con-

the duty of the court 10 put you beyond
temptation and imposed the sentence
named above.
