JURY HAS THE CASE
PcwERs's FATE IS WITH HIS
 KENTUCKY PEERS.
After Deliberating an Hour the Jury Failed to Reach Verdict. P Campbell Closed for
 the State.

Georgetown. Ky. Aug. 2S-Caleb Pow CTS resumed argument in his own defense before the jury at 9 o'clock this morning He spoke until noon adjournment, and will be followed this afternoon by States Attorney Franklin.
 Powers declared to the jury that the star witness of the commonwealth, Wharton Golden, was swearing to keep out of the penitentiary. and that Henry Youtsey was swearing to get out of the institution. He denied that he ever had any connection whatever with Youtsey, and pointed out that the testimony shows that he had not known Youtsey thirty days before the shooting.
 He made strong point on the fact communication with Youtsey by him until the day before the shooting.
 Caleb Powers closed his argument to the jury at 2:3o o'clock this afternoon. one hour after the opening of the after noon session. The closing hour was de- voted to an explanation of the pardon by Taylor to him. and to his having gathered together and taken the mountain army on January 25 1900. to Frankfort He de- ciared that 1t was a peaceable body and went there only on a peaceful mission. Powers closed with a word picture of his aged mother sitting in her mountain home awaiting the verdict in this case, and made strong plea for acquittal
 Commonwealth Attorney Franklin then began the closing argument in the case on behalf of the State. He declared that Powers had made the best speech on his side of the case, but that it was full of mfsrepresentations of the facts and the testimony that Powers had repeatedly gone outside the record in his argument He said that the reason he did not at. tempt to correct Powers on the errors was because he wanted the defendant to say everything to the jury that he pieas- ed so that he might have no cause to complain of the treatment of him by the commonwealth in this matter.
 "If did raise an objection and this man should be hanged. as I believe he will be by this jury, I should despise my self for that objection" exclaimed the States attorney.
 Mfr Franklin closed at g:30 o'clock and Judge Robbins gave the case to the jury with directions to retire and consider it for an hour.
 The jury at 1o:s5 reported that no agreement had been reached and was ex- cused until tomorrow morning.

If she is timid about making appointments at the advertised office, she can get card of admission to brown stone residence on another street, which is divided into reception rooms.

There are no end of instructions look ing to the successful issue of the ae- quaintRnces made. Some of them may help those who cannot afford to take a hand in this personally conducted mar riage game.
 Do not state in the first letter that you have seventeen children. that you have lost all your property and want a home, that you failed in business and want some one to help you out. Your second letter is abundant time for minor details and the unfavorabie side of your descrip- tion."
 Seventeen childrenl Minor details ln- deed!
 Don't send photograph unless other people beside yourself think it handsome. It is essential that your first letter con- tain the most attractive description of yourself consistent with truth. It is folly to describe the person you are seeking for it cannot change the one wbo will re- ceive your letter."
 There are some crimes which will bring about expulsion from this vast ready-to- be-married family. To break appoint ments without good excuse is a cardinal sin. Another Is "to permit another to correspond with those to whom we have iTNroduced you, or to introduce your friends to our patrons for matrimonial purposes; this is fraud that sill justify us in expelling you from our membership, and requiring from you the fee those should have paid whom you have intro- duced"
 With all these convehiences at their command can New York man or woman look the world in the face and say he or she has never had an opportunity to marry.

 An1srina

Havana, Aug. 2S.-The interest in recip- roclty with the United States, which has been Ianguishing for several months, Is reviving.
