VALENTINE
DAY STORY.

The whole world was baskcd in sun
shine. The trees shorn of their graceful
green cloakS, were holding long talks
together and the Mystery Of the time
was speaking in some subtle way, SO
that everyone whose soul was not dyed
in misery felt the contagion of Cupld's
coming. The little stream, HOW frozen
over, was singing low song on its rocky
bed, and gurgIing with the happiness,
which, III the spring time, would break
forth in joyous melody; for today is
Cupid's market daythe day the little
god brings his wares to earth and offers
them for sale. The sly merchant
stood by the side Of great tree, with
his stores before him. His chubby
figure was drapcd in cloth Of gold,
and above his waist hung "A culver full
of jewel tipped arrows. His bow he had
flung to the ground, but, mark you, it
was quite in easy reach.
On Il golden tray before him, lay st.
Valentines wares; for YOU know st.
Valentine and the sly little god Cupid
are one, hearts of all sizes and of all
kinds; big hearts, little hearts, bright
rcd hearts; hearts deep dyed in a darker
hue. hearts of stone and hearts of ten
dcrncss, hearts Of innocence, hearts
made of all things--rapture, joy, rcck-
lessnrsS, mad delight, contempt, peace,
hope, faith, despair, FOOLS paradise,
self abaspnlcnt, dstrust, agony, and pride
all bright and red dangling from Il
golden chain. Early AS it WAS, there
was q curious group about the little
fellow; and from al over the hills
along the path by the stream, coming
from the town and coming from the
country, were madrns Old aud young,
fair and dark, comedy and awkward,
coming to the great mart on st, \alrn-
tines day.

Georgetown, KY Oct. S.=The second

Cantrill read an affidavit fled by the
prisoners attorneys. setting forth sthe
alleged Dartisanship of the court. that
me Judge is a candidate for senator
and deeply prejudiced against the de-
PENDANT personally as well as political
Commonwealth Attorney Franklin
argued that the affidavit was a mere
recitation of the prisoners conclusions
and opinions over his alleged inability
70 get a fair trial. Colonel Campbell
delivered bitter speech against those
who thus reflected on the court.
Judge Cantriu refused to vacate the
oench, saying the affidavit should have

any action in the case. he refused to
discuss the petition of the AFFIDAVIT.
which related to himself. but denied
that the jury in the former trial had
been unfairly chosen. The defense and
the commonwealth then proceeded with
the trial.
When court convened this afternoon
two panels Of the petit jury were called

monwealth, spoke in reply to the mo-
ton made by theA1efense for a continu-
alton of the case.

also.

Mr. Hanna suggested that the prac-
tee OF quoting from the testimony of

able from legal point of view, was
calculated TO produce delay. and there
fore not desirable.
When Mr.. Hanna had taken his seat.
MI Raynor replied. referring to Mr.
hanna as his learned and solemn
Il1end This characterization brought
Captain Lemly TO his feet. This. he
said, is eminently improper. All these
ieIl-nanded compliments thrown
around are unusual"
Mr.. Raynor-I withdraw it.
Mr.. Hanna-It did not make me feel

Mr.. Raynor-I would not object to

No Legal Objection.
Admiral Dewey. speaking for the
court, then said as there was no legal
OBSTACLES in the way of putting the
question, it could be asked Iieuten-
ant Bristol said, in reply:
DO not agree with Captain Folger
as regards the facts that the ships were
nearer in at night than they were in
the day time, because it is my firm
recoltection now that they were farther
out at night than they were in the dar
lme; also read from the log when I
testlheo. that the average resolutions
OF the Texas by the watch were a Ger

ing TO that, give the ship a certain
speed. which would be greater than
the distance given by Captain Folger

testimony when the court, at D. m.

says:
The conclusion unfortunately is un-
9voidable that our immigration is con-
SANITY increasing in illiteracy. Not

''the presence of our inspectors abroad

But even the above procedure would
