MIR. STEVENS ENDORSEMENT.
Why He Refuses to Pay weIz & Fry
William BicLSePs Note

The answer in the case Of Well &,
Fry against Congressman F. C. Stew
ems and William BickeI to recover the
amount of a note given by Mr.. Bickel
and Endorsed by Mr.. Stevens has been
served on the complainant's attorney,
A. B. Ovitt. The complaint alleges that
Mr.. Stevens Endorsed the note of Mr..
Bickel before it was accepted by the
proprietors Of the Ryan hotel. In the
answer served, Mr.. Stevens enters a
complete denial of the transaction
claiming that he did not indorse the
note under the conditions named in
the complaint, and that he received no
consideration whatsoever for his sigma
ture on the paper.
There is a fine point of law involved
In the action. Welz & Fry claim that
Mr.. Stevens Endorsement was secured
before they accepted the note of Mr..
Rickel. On the other hand Mr.. Stevens
claims that he Endorsed the note after
it had been executed to Well & FRY,
and further claims since the transaction
the bill, which was secured by the note
has been paid in full by Mr. Bickel.
The case Is in the municipal court.

A Thanksgiving wooinC,

fhe frost was on the cottage pane,
The skies were gray and chill;
But with trembling hand she
smoothed
Her kerchief's dainty frill.
For then she saw the youthful squire
Dismonnting In the snow,
In velvet coat, and buckled shoes.
Thanksgiving long ago.
While wish her wrinkled sire he talked
or weather and of wheat.
His ear was ever strained to catch
The music OF her feet.
Her dimpled arms were deep In -four.
Her rounded cheeks nglow;-
Her father slept;-he stole kiss.
Thanksgiving long ago.
His stately mother and her guests
Were waiting at the Hall
Before the feast In silver served:
But he forgot them all,
And at the farmers humble board,
With curly head bent low.
He called a courtly blessing down,
Thanksgiving long ago.
Clear rose the moon above the woods
And twilight yelled the farm;
But stu he fingered at the gate,
The bride on his arm.
"Oh. bake and brew for me alone,
Be mine for veal or woe
love you, dear" he softly said,
Thanksgiving long ago.
In yonder carven frame she stands.
In pearls and blue brocade;
And still tradition fondly keeps
The pumpkin pies she made.
And tells again the story sweet.
When granarles overflow
OF how the squire a-wooing went.
