A Novel Court Trial.

lot. Louis correspondence
A weil-dressed woman. scarcely more
than 20 years Of age. supported herself
on clutches and standing with one bare
foot daintily exposed below the margin
of her skirt, as If patiently awaiting the
announcement of a momentous verdict,
was the central figure in trial scene at
the old court house Wednesday. AT her
feet knelt man, who at first glance
might have been adjudged to be in
position of supplication or alteration. He
held an ordinary yard stick in his hand.
Delicately and with that grace for
which he is noted, he extended the stick
horizontally on a level with the edge of
the skirt until it touched the dainty
foot. The woman's face, which bore the
unmistakable impress of the real mod
esty of her sex, was aglow with bushes.
The man, still on Bonded knee, pressed
his thumb upon the line Of the stick
where the edge of the woman's skirt
rested. raised the measure to his eyes,
glanced at the figures and said: -Four
teen inches, your honor" Then he arose,
assisted her to a seat and the tableau
was over.
All of this occurred in Judge Ryan's
division OF the circuit court before d
crowded house. While the scene was be-
ing enacted a breathless silence pervad-
ed the scene. Lawyers and witnesses sat
with their eyes riveted upon the picture
as il in reverence rather than morbid
curiosity. Even the crowd of spectators
who are wont to gather at trial sessions
where unusual failures are expected to
develop looked on with marked interest.
Not sound disturbed the solemnity OF
the proceedings save the utterances Of
the man. People looked at the sad. mod
est face of the young woman and noted
the lines of pain that marked 1t.

IOWA OPINIONS AND NOTES.

The Spirit Lake Beacon believes that
On the part of Iowa democrats 1t
would be a graceful concession to give
Senator Allison q unanimous election to
sixth term but 1t is not necessary to
the largest measure of influence at
Washington exercised by any senator
in many years 1t adds: The visitor
who carries TO the national capital any
doubt as to the standing of our senior
senator coon learns that he is the most
influential factor in the senate-the
most trusted the most honored and the
most effective in the matter OF net re-
suits
The Sac Sun Is convinced that any at
tempt to modify the present liquor law
Of the state will be fraught with trouble.
In it's opinion there is no question that
the substitution Of the ballot for the pc
tition Will mean turmoil over the saloon
question in many counties where peace
has been restored either, by the triumph
or the hopeless defeat of the saloon ell
ement. It believes There is no good rea-
son why the saloon territory should be
further increased in Iowa and there
certainly is no advantage to be gained
by the republicans of Iowa in estranging
the temperance voters who stood by the
party in the days when Clevelandism
and free trade sentiment We're wrecking
it in other states.''
The Sully Ledger predicts that "the
coming legislature will permit the
eleven congressional districts to remain
as they are" 1t believes THAT is just
what the legislature should do, and we
believe that is what it will do"

Mr.. Major. the famous cement man. of New
YORK. explains some very interesting facts
about Majors cement.
The multitude who use this standard article
know that is it many hundred per cent. uetter
than other cements for which similar claims
are made. but a great many do not know
why. The simple reason is that Mr.. Major
other manufacturers do not use them be-
cause they are too expensive and do not allow
large profits. Mr.. Major tells us that one of
the elements of his cement costs s. 70 a DOnnd
and another costs 81 is a gallon, while a large
share OF the SO-called cements and lioui1
glue upon the market are nothing more than
slxteen-cent glue, dissolved in water or citric
aclo, and. In some cases. altered slightly in
color and odor by the addition of cheap and
useless materials.
Major cement retails at fifteen cents and
twenty-five cents bottle, and when a dealer
tries to sell Institute you can depend upon
1t his only object is to make larger profit.
The profit On Majors cement is as much as
any dealer ought to make on any cement
Ana this is doubtly true in view of the fact
Unat each dealer gets his share Of the benefit
