Brief and Pithy.

An American law journal has quoted
the charge to jury delivered by GER
tain Judge Donovan as the shortest on
record. The judge said:
gentlemen of the jury, IL you be-
lieve the plaintiff, find a verdict for
plaintiff and fix the amount. If you be-
lieve the defendant, find verdict for
defendant. Follow the officer"
But an English periodical caps this
brief charge by quoting a shorter one
delivered by Commissioner Kerr. He
said to jury:
THAT man says prisoner robbed him.
The prisoner says he didn't You settle
It."

TRIBUTE FROM DR.. GEO. A. PHOEBUS.
Writes Feelingly of the Recent Death Of
Hon. John II. iOffecker.

Rev. DIR. Geo. A. Phoebus, now of |
1874 2nd Place, Brooklyn, who closed
a pastorate of the NJ. E. church here |
a quarter of a century ago, writes as
follows:
81 value your regard in that | have
your welcome sheet. The contents
show tributes of respect and homer to
one whom 1 have fondly loved. John
H. Hoffecker will ever live in my mem
ory as only few can. Because of him
1 learned to love you and Smyrna.
81 have written few lines which are
committed to you for publication, If
you deem it wise to put them i'll your
paper. You will perceive that the in
itials form the full name of him in
whose memorial they are written. If
approved send me copy of your paper
containing the acrostic. 1 can find
food for mind and spirit in every num-
Der that you make up from week to
week, for there are few Peninsula
weeklies that are equal in value to
yours.
''Please exted my sympathies to Bro
Hoffecker's family. How it will de-
light my soul to see that his children
shall rise to prominence equal to that
of their father.
ITO yourself, your house, and to my
Smyrna friends 1 send love greetings.
Jesus loved him-by His side
On his bosom he reclined.
His own Spirit was his guide
Noting alway Spirit mind.
He was great as leader bold:
Envied no one in his day;
Never wandered from the fold;
Ruled his house with loving sway,
''Yesu bereaved mourners say.
He, in church and Sunday School,
Only taught the Golden Rule;
Financier, he brought them wealth.
, Fostering love, he gave them health
Ever ready to befriend,
Christians, citizens, admired,
Knowing virtue was his end;
Euphonized all he desired.
Right to Heaven did he ascend.

Building Collapsed,

Yesterday afternoon a section OF
the front wall, of the Ben Collins
building, which is under construc-
ton, and near completed, fell with
a crash that caused a crowd to
gather about the front Of the build
ing. The fall was not on account of
defective brick work, for the walls
were run up straight aad the
material placed in a workman like
manner. The collapse was caused by
the constructor, placing the iron
support over the front entrance,
which is some 25 or 30 feet vide, un-
der insufficient support at one end,
the same being placed, in a place
cut out of the city hall wall few
inches from the front end and in
serted about 4 inches. The iron
girder weighed about two and a
half tons and the mass of brick on
top of this caused the city hall wall
to crumbe beneath the weight and
down the whole mass came. The loss
will amount to about $500. We are
pleased to say that no one was
hurt.
