fine old pieces. A chair that is a repro
duction Of the one Savonarola used while
in his CELL shows the distinct style Of that
period. A splendid and original example
of the Spanish style Of the seventeenth
century is in the chestnut wood richly
carved on the front legs. The seat and

A Historic Mirror.
A mirror of unusual interest is one
hanging in the ]. S. Bell residence. It
was used by Martha Washington during
the months that the continental congress

prepared for them. The frame of this
mirror is mahogany heavily gilded, as was
the fashion at that period. This mirror
has been in Mr.. Bells family for many
years Another interesting furnishing in
the Bell home, of the same period. is a
handsome mantel clock of a design seldom
seen at the present time.

statements made by defendants attorney
rather reflected on his honesty and insisted
on having his say. Judge GrlmisCn and

he came back in a different frame Of mind
and held a brief talk at the bench with the
