freshman named Callahan had got into
a ON with his landlord about some re-
pairs and refused to pay his rent. The
landlord was a fussy little eX-college
professor. totally IMMERSED in the ways
OF the world, and he was imprudent
enough to send word that he would have
the family eVicted and then called to dis
cuss 1t personally. He emerged yelling
murder and said tina he had first met
Mrs. Callahan. who told him her hus-
band would do him no harm. upon the
strength of which he had waited for his
return. When Callahan came in he
promptly gave the visitor a beating. The
old lrishman and his wife We're both ar
rested, and I appeared for the defense.
The ugly feature of the case vas the al
legged effort of the woman to lure her call
er into a trap. but when put on the
stand she denied the landlords story in
toto. and swore point blank she had
warned him that her husband proposed
to punch his head. Both parties seemed
nerfeltly sincere in their statements,

Justice Would Not Ap-
prove His Bond.

zeal student. who was adjudged guilty in
Justice H~arrington's court late yester-
day Afternoon, is in jail. Justice Harring-

ney, John NJ. Dixon, who a given mo-
tice of appeal. filed with Judge H%arring-
ton the necessary bond in the sum of 1910,

sureties appeared before him and justi-
fed.
Mr.. Dixon insisted tina the bond be
accepted, and the discussion became
quite heated.
IN fine you for contempt of court if
this thing goes much further remarked
the justice with some warmth.
II am here to protect my clients inter-
ests,' replied the attorney.

fled as a bondsman before the justice,
but the other bondsman could not be
found. In the meantime L%Ondoner, Who

approval of the bond.
The principal witness against Londoner
was a Mrs. Abel johnson, who testified
that Londoner had treated her, repre-
senting himself as a physician.

Said Governor Pingree: IF General
Alger said that, it is his opinion from
his point of view. The question whether
l am for Mckinley hes with the Presi-
dent, not with me. If General Alger
knows that President Mckinley is OPP
posed to territorial expansion, and is
not an advocate of the murder and the
destruction being visited upon the in
nocent Filipinos, he has right to say
that l am for Mckinley If General
Alger is informed that Mckinley is op-
posed to trusts and to legislation which
fosters, creates and encourages them,
and in favor of legislation to restrict
and suppress them, then 1 am closer TO
the opinions of Mckinley than has gen
orally been believed. If General Alger
is assured that President Mckinley is
not in touch and sympathy with the dis
reputable political methods of Mark
Hanna and his friends and deprecates
such leadership, then l am for McKin-
ley.
The question: of whether favor Nc
Kinley is of no consequence in the SEN
atorial matter, but / am for Mckinley
in everything he does which I consider
right and against everything he does
which I consider wrong"
