Wit and Wisdom.

The daughter of statesman was
sitting on her fathers knee one even
ing when she was little girl. She
had new little brother. whom she re-
garded with wonder. "To-day," said
the father "a man offered to give me
a whole roomful of gold for little
brother. Shall sell him?" The child
shook her head. "But," said her IA
Their, "think of how many nice things
a roomful of gold would buy! Don't
you think that had better let the
man have him?" "No." answered the
girl thoughtfully. "let's keep him till
he's older; he'll be worth more then"
''Your husband" said the doctor,
''has worried himself sick. He needs
a change" "Where ought we to go"
asked the anxious wife. ITO the
city," replied the doctor promptly.

Dan Patch Lowers Re cord.

Memphis. Oct. 22.-nhe third day Of
the harness racing at the Memphis
Trotting associations track was made
memorable by the magnificent per-
Torrance of Dan Patch in trial
against time. The handsome son of
Joe Patchen made the mile in 1854,
clipping three-fourths of second
from the worlds record of 81, held
by Prince Alert and lowered his rec
ord to Ok seconds. The mile was
| paced without wind shield. and at
the finish Dan Patch seemed as fresh
and vigorous as at the start The
demonstration that greeted the new
worlds pacing champion, as he finish
ed under the wire. was a memorable
one. Horse owners. who stood about
| the track before the starters stand,
had caught the time with their own
watches. and before the official time
was flashed out. they set up a mighty
shout. The shout was caught up by
| the grand stand. the space before It.
and on the clubhouse grounds. and the
victory of a new pacing idol was pro-
claimed in a long hoarse roar that
reached its climax in a frenzy Of
noise. as Driver McHenry pulled up
before the judges stand and dotted
his hat in acknowledgement of the
acclaim. The trial was made with
two runners to set the pace the sulky
preceding the PAGER carrying a canvas
strip between the wheels. The quar-
ter was reached in % seconds. the half
his record Of 80. Scarcely any one
pole in 1874. AS the horses swung
into the stretch. Dan Patch was push
ing the forward runner so closely that
scarcely a hands breadth interviewed
between his nose and the back of the
driver in the forward sulky. The per-
| Torrance of Dan Patch in setting a
new worlds record was surprise to
even the most ardent admirers The
betting was 3 to 5 against lowering
| least $1,000 men will be idle and pos
had displayed sufficient enthusiasm in
the bay son of Joe Patchen to think
he might equal the record of the
champion, Prince Alert, and certainly
no one had predicted that he would
excel his wonderful mark of 1857.
But he went the mile in so little ap-
parent exertion that his admirers are
predicting that he will still lower the
worlds record, should he start against
it with weather and track conditions
as favorable as they were when he
made his wonderful mile. Lou Dillon,
with mark of two minutes for
mile, was sent against the worlds
trotting record to-day at the Memphis
Driving park. The mare was accom-
panied by two runners and was driven
by Willard Sanders. The consensus of
opinion among horsemen generally
here is that with perfect weather con-
ditions new mark will be given to
the world. The great performance of
Dan Patch to-day, when he paced a
mile in 1864, suggests that the track
is better and faster than at any time
in it's history.

Erin and Her Flag.
She rises DER the waves,

iy gentle breeZeS famed:
How beautiful her smile
When sunshine battles her land.
What race of men came here
From far DER oceans foam.
To find themselves Il land
And build themselves Il home?
From out the East they came
Ere Athens rose or Rome
The sons of IL came here
Ere Rome or Athens rose,
For those gray towers round,
Who built them?--No one knows;
Egypt or Persia's land
Such towers only shows.
From out the East they came,
Fire-worshipers We're they;
The Irish never bowed
10 gods of wood or clay,
Their only God, the Sun,
Is OH their Flag to-day.
The Culdees, or Chaldees,
Came here in times unknown,
And built upon this land
Those towers like their own,
Like sentinels they stand
Solitary-alone.
Like sentinels they stand,
And silent seem to say,
1--WE guard this Irish land
Till Freedoms coming ray,
For coming it will come
Till then we're doomed to stay"
Next came the facile Greek,
The sons Of Parthelan;
And many Il bay and creek,
From Bantry to the Bann,
Still keep their legends weird.
Their music. myths and ram.
A strange, Pelasgic race
The pioneers of yore,
Who sailed from land to land
And studied Natures lore;
Here they found mists and fogs,
And called it Scotias shore.
frr,
Were skilled i'll mystic lore;
Scotia, Achill, Athy,
NIacha and many more,
When duly analysed
Are Grecian at the core.
Hermon and Heber next,
Wise, firm and fearless came
From Spain to claim the Isle
Which bore their fathers fame,
Brave men. strong men were they
Their race and IRIS the same.
They fought and won the Isle.
Just was their rule and wise;
And Erin's wondrous light
Shone out and lit the skies;
Great men' in peace and war,
And deeds of high emprise.
Their Sunburst and the Harp,
The grandest Flag on earth;
One marks her sunburst race,
And one her social mirth-
They were no common men
That gave such Flag it's birth.
They were no common men,
They were no men of straw.
Who wrote upon that Flag
The scroll "Erin-go-bragh:'
True Nationalist were they
They order had and law.
When Irishmen behold
That Flag they instant know
The place from whence they came
Some thousand years ago.
The land of sage and song.
The land where shamrocks grow.
\ martyr land to-day.
She weeps, but has not died.
She suffers for the right,
And like the Crucified
She vet will rise again
Triumphant. justified.

He was taken at his word and has all that he asked for. The building has been re- painted and decorated throughout and the result is an artistic triumph. The prevailing colors are olive green and white which make a fine combination and harmonize perfectly, and Mir. Main has just right to be proud of the new Monte Carlo.

Indictment Found Against Attorney
Wheeler Campbell Dismissed.
No Public Offense Was Charged In IL,
According to Judge Hus-
bands Ruling.
THE ATTORNEYS AUTHORITY

The indictment against Attorney ].
Wheeler Campbell, found by the last
grand Jury for 'obstructing Justice"
was yesterday afternoon thrown out
of court by Circuit Judge Husbands
on demurrer. The court stated that no
public offense was charged in the in
djctment.
The case, it will be remembered,
originated over the prosecution of Sam
Holland for alleged setting up a game.
A warrant was sworn out against him
in Justice Young's court, and when the
defendant presented himself on the
day set for the preliminary hearing,
Justice Young declined to grant one,
holding him to answer to the grand
jury. Mr.. Campbell, the prisoners at
tornoy, protested and said his client
didn't want to be held to the grand
jury and required to give a bond, or
perhaps be sent to Jail, without an in
vestigstion. II the evidence justified
it, he would be satisfied, but he was
convinced there was no evidence
against him and that he would be
promptly dismissed.
When he was refused a trial Attor-
ney Campbell advised him to leave
and decline to give q bond TO appear
before the grand jury, and advised him
further that he could not be legally
held, and the prisoner walked out Of
court. This is what made the au-
thorities mad, and they retaliated by
securing an indictment against the
attorney for Constructing Justice, "
which charge in itself Judge Hus-
bands decided is not Q public offense1
Attorney Campbell based his action
on section so of the code of practice,
which stipulates that man upon pre-
senting himself on a warrant or bail
bond, must be given an examining
trial before q magistrate.
OF course justice may be INSTRUCTED
in many ways, but there must be
some specific charge by statutes, 1t is
claimed by attorneys, before it be-
comes an offense. The simple charge
of "obstructing justice does not con-
stitute an offense.
II was claimed that magistrates
have a right to hold q man over when
the grand jury is in session without
an examination, but Attorney Camp.
bell claimed they have no right to
presume the grand jury is in session,
and the above provision Of the code
requires them to give an examination,
especially where 1t is demanded.
Many cases are held over from po-
lice court and magistrates courts ia,
this way without an examination, and
it may be the practice will now be
stopped.
