Christmas-Eve night. Witness recognized
the rooster as one that he had himself
raised and subsequently sold to Chester

egg with a hard shell, which had to be
soaked in water.

swear he found the bird in Chesterman's

This closed the testimony in the great
rooster case.
THE ARGUMENTS OF COUNSEL.
Mr.. Gordon opened for the prosecution.
He declared that the prisoner was guilty
of a fowl crime, and asked the jury 10
convict him. Mr.. Dawson followed i'm
pugning the veracity of Cloves and show
ing the jury that the witness was type
writer dealer.
Colonel Newton, speaking for the de-

certain man went down into Jericho and
fell among thieves. Mrs Brengle lived In
Jericho. He denounced Mrs Brengle and
Mr.. Cloves. who had plotted against the
good name of "the most beautiful young
man on earth" He delivered his perora-

piously. and the Court sighed heavily.
Mr.. Pollard closed for the Common
wealth. He excoriated the prisoner and
called him names. He pictured the dis
tress of the complainant since the loss
of the bird. Gentlemen of the jury,
he exclaimed dramatically. ''if the base
villain had robbed Mr.. Montague of his
good name he would have had trash. but
he robbed him of his rooster-hls Deau-

The Washington Post is opposing
the election of General Weaver to
Congress. but the following is what
it says about him and the fight he is
making for Congress in his district
in Iowa:
"In the Sixth District General
Weaver is making q supreme effort
to defeat Maj. Lacy. Weaver rep
resented this district in 1880. He
dropped out in 1890 to become the
Greenback nominee for President,
and in 1882 was defeated by NJ. E..
Cults. He was elected as fusionist
in 1884, reelected III 1886. Weaver
is a past master in the campaign
ing art. He can kiss the babies,
knows what to say to the farmers
wife, and has q magnetic hand shake
which has done yeoman's work serv-
ice in many q hard campaign. Al
though his career is marked with
more defeats than victories, he is
always a dangerous foe, resource
full and ever active. He is now on.
gagged in making q house-to-house
canvass of the district.
Major Lacy does not underesti-
mate his opponent. He has known
him too long to Go that, but he fears
Gen. Apathy mo than he does Gen
Weaver, and IN ks that the latter
can defea nlm My through the alC
Ut the form.r.'
