A NOTE FROM THE PAST

This clipping from the message of
Governor Kemper to the General As
sembly of 1877 is Of peculiar interest.
The very evils he depicted nave caused
the abolition of the county courts by the
new Constitution.
Only a few judges were willing to give
up the practice of law. The name of
one occurs to me. Judge William Dill
lard so firmly held to the views express
ed by Governor Kemper that he did not
practice law or take an active part in
local politics during the eighteen years
he held court in Amherst county.
The spotless reputation, Judge billiard
established during those years will ever
be held up in favor OF the county court
system. 1t Is also interesting to recall
the magistrates and jurors who formerly

[SECoND REPORT OF DR.. WATSON ]
THE LIGHT UPON THE MOOR.
Baskerville Hall, Oct. 18th.

My Dear 1ioimcs,-If ] was compeIl-
ed TO leave you without much news
during the early days Of my mission you
must acknowledge that i am making up
Tor lost TINE, and that events are now
crowding thick and fast upon us. In
my last report / ended upon my top note
with Barrymore at the window, and now
I have quite a budget already which
will, unless ] am much mistaken, con-
siderably surprise you. Things haIEl
taken n turn which / could not have
anticipated. In some = Us they have
within the last foiy-essi.s hours become
much clearer and in some ways they
have become more cNapiicated. But
will tell YOU all and you sholl judge
for yourself.
Before breakfast the morning fol-
lowing my adventure I went down the
corridor and exam sd the room in when
Barrymore had been on the night before
The western window through which he
had stared SO intently has, / noticed one
popularity above all other windows in
the Eouse--it commands the nearest out
look onto the moor. There is an open
ing between two trees which enables
one from this point of view to look
right down upon it, while from all the
other windows it is only a distant
glimpse which can be obtained. 1t fol-
lows, therefore, that Barrymore, since
only this WINDOW would serve his pur-
pose, must have been looking out for
something or somebody upon the moor.
The night was very dark, so that l can
hardly imagine how he could have hoped
to see anyone. 1t had struck me that it
was possible that some love intrigue was
on foot That would have accounted for
his stealthy movements and also for the
uneasiress of his wife. The man is a
striRing-lookins fellow, very we'll equip
~, han ~ f,o try yTf
SO that this theory seemed to have some
thing to support it. That opening OF
tho door which / had heard after l had
returned 10 my room might mean that
he had gone out to keep some ciandes-
zinc appointment. So ] reasoned with
myself in the morning. and tell You
she direction of my suspicious, however
much the result may have shown that
thew were unfounded.
But whatever the true explanation OF
Barrymnre's movements might be, felt
that the responsibility of keeping them
to myself until / could explain them
wac more than j could bear. ] had an
knteryiew with the baronet in his study
after breakfast, and / told him all that

had expected.

looks very much as though Mr.. Thomp-
sons idea will be carried through.
Tile convention will be in session three
days. Many topics Of interest to cleo
tlicians and especially to municipal cleo
tritisns, will be discussed and much i'm
portant business viii be transacted. The
meetings will probably be held at Ma
sonic Temple. An excursion will be given
tic guests and a banquet will be given,
at which Governor Montague and Mayor
Taylor will be guests. Mr.. Thompson
himself will probably be the POSTMASTER,
ana those who are familiar with him as
an after-dinner talker, are looking for
ward to something exceedingly good.
ORGANIZATION OF ASSOCIATION.
+ The association was first thought CT
in 1894 by John n. Gamewell and Frank
G.. Mason. Of the Police telegraph OF

To Enforce a Bargain.

Attorney A. w. Bertholf brought suit
yesterday, for Henry Race. against
David Colcher TO recover damages in
the sum of S1,560.
According to the plaintiffs story,
Colcher has defaulted in his end of
what the plai9tiff AYERS was a fair bar
gain.
Colcher's wife died last August, and
he was left alone to take care of his
aged and infirm MOTHER -in-law. Race,
who is a relative, was besought to care
for the old woman, and, it is alleged
agreed to do SO, on condition that Col
cher would give him Il $500 farm in
Wyoming county, which Colcher owned
and which Race wanted.
August %, 1901, Race undertook the
care of Colchers mother-in-la She
proved to be no very burdensome care,
tor within few months after being
transferred to the Race home, she
passed away.
Race went to Colcher to secure a deed
of the farm, but Colcher refused to live
up to his end of the bargain, and hence
the suit.

A SPLENDID DEBATE.
shakespeare-Bacon Controversy Dis,
cussed Last Night.

Attorney A. V. Bower and Rev T., A
Boyl, pastor of the Plymouth Congre.
Satlonal church, last night debated the
question, "Resolved, That Shakespeare
ana not Bacon, was the author of the
Shakespearean plays" before the de-
patlng club in the Railroad Young
Mems Christian association
MI. Bower took the negative side of
the question, and declared that Bacon.
ana not Shakespeare, wrote the plays.
HIS main argument was based upon
the fact that so little is known of
Shakespeare and that there Is no rec
ord TO show how he could have oh
tanned such an education as the man
VINO wrote the immortal dramas must
nave had. Shakespeare, he said left
no manuscripts. no letters left, in fact,
nothing that the ordinary literary man
leaves behind him.
Bacon, on the contrary was the mas
ter mind of his age, possessed of mar
Nelous powers of education and n
scholar whose ability was recognized
all oyer the civilized world. Mr. Bower
pointed out points of similarity be-
tween the acknowledged works of
Bacon and the plays, and argued that
every known fact about the two men,
when considered impartially, led in
evitably to the conclusion that Bacon
and only Bacon could have possibly
produced them
Mra Bowers theory of the reason why
Bacon did not publish the plays under
his own name was that it was consid-
cred lowly in those days to be play
wright and that If Bacon had acknowI-
edged himself to be the author of the
playsshe would have lost his high posi-
ton ~ court. Mr., Bower said that he
had 20 sympathy with Ignatlus Dom
nellys cryptogram scheme, by which it
was Sought to prove that the plays
contained cipher revealing Bacon as
their author.
Rev Mr., Boyl sought to show that
there@was no similarity whatever be-
tweeW the Shakespearean plays and the
works of Bacon. Bacons style. he said.
was dry and stiff, and he had none,of
the diyine fire of poetry with which the
plays are imbued. Bacon was the great
est lawyer of his time, he said, and vet
-four OF the Shakespearean plays are
based upon an entirely wrong concep- |
tion OF law, proving that he did not
write them. -th
The judges. Henry Cardew, b. II.
stone.and j. Il. Pagan, decided unani- |
mously in favor of Mr.. Bower.
