PETERSEN LOSES.
Jury Refuses to Award Him
Damages.
Case Of Henry HittIe, Charged With
Non-Support, is Dismissed.---Wife
Permitted to Testify.

The damage suit of Robert Petersen
vs.. Nelson Latin for alleged malicious
prosecution went to the jury at 8 30 a.
m. Friday, and at 10 40 a. m. the jury
returned with verdict for the de-
PENDANT. A stay of forty days was
granted.
The trial of Henry Hittle on the
charge of non-support of his wife was
commenced in the district court Friday
forenoon. The defense moved to
quash the Indictment on the ground
that wife cannot testify against her
husband. The decision Ito that effect
of a Minneapolis judge was cited.
Judge Cray denied the motion, re-
marking that if such rule was to be
followed there would be very little
protection for women from the cruelty
of their husbands, as it is not often
that there are outside witnesses.
Mrs. Hittle then took the stand and
testified about the same as she did at
the hearing in the municipal court.
After the trial had proceeded until
the middle of this afternoon, the county
attorney moved that the case be dis
missed for want of evidence to con-
vict, and this was gra nted.

AT ARLINGTON.
IBY JAMES R. RANDALL.

IBY JAMES R. RANDALL In response to numerous requests The Advertiser publishes the beautiful poem Arlington" written more than thirty years ago by the author of Maryland, | My Maryland"
 | The broken column. rearer in air, To him who made our country great, | Can almost cast its shadows where The victims of a grand despair, 1 In long, long ranks of death await The last. loud trump and Judgment sun, Which come for all, and, soon or Iate, Will come for those at Arlington. In that vast sepulchre repose The thousands reaped from every fray; The men in Blue who once uprose In battle front to smite their foes The Spartan Bands who wore the Grey. The combat OCT, the death-hug done, In Summer blaze or Winter snows, They keep the truce at Arlington. And almost lost in myriad graves Of those who gained tn unequal fight, Who reck not how the north wind raves, In dazzling day or dimmest night ht- Der those who lost and those who won, Death holds no barley which was right Jehovah judges Arlington!
 The dead had resi- the dove of peace Brooded OCT both with equal wings. To both had come that great surcease, The last OmnlpOlGHI TciedSc From all the worlds delirious stir gs. To bugle deaf and signal gun, They slept, like heroes of old Greece, Beneath the glebe at Arlington. And in the Springs benignant reign. he sweet May woke her harp of pines; Teaching her choir a thrilling strain Of jubilee to land and main; She danced in emerald down the lines.
 Denying largess bright to none, She saw her difference in the signs That told who slept at Arlington.
 She gave her grasses and her showers
 TO all alike who dreamed in dust:
 Her song-birds wove their dainty bowers Amid the jasmine buds and flowers And Diped with an impartial trust
 Waifs of the air and liberal sun! Their euileless glees were kind and just
 To friends and foe at Arlington.
 And mid the generous Spring there came
 Some women of the land, who strove To make this funeral field of fame
 Glad as the May gods altar flame,
 With rosy wreaths of mutual love.
 Unmindful of who had lost or won, They scorned the jargon of a name
 No North, no South, at Arlington. Between their pious thought and God
 Stood files of men with brutal steel; The garlands placed on Rebel sod
 Were trampled in the common clod To die beneath the hireling's heel.
 Facing this triumph of the Hun, Our smoky Caesar gave no nod
 To keep the peace at Arlington. Jehovah judged, abashing man;
 For, in the vigils of the night, His storm-avengers ran
 Together in one choral clan, Rebuking wrCAlg, rcwarding right.
 Plucking the wreaths from those who
 won,
 The tempest heaped them dewy- bright
 On Rebel graves at Arlington. And when the morn came, young and fair.
 Brimful of blushes ripe and red, Knee-deep in sky-sent roses there,
 Nature began her earliest prayer Above triumphant Southern Dead.
 So. in the dark and in the .un, Our Cause survives the tyrant's tread
 And sleeps to wake at Arlington!
