Unclerical Method of Locomotion.

Special Cabiegram to The Star.
PARIS, June 15.-The Able Caville Of
Agen has been dismissed from the euracy
for curious offense. He was the inventor
of a patent footwarmer. and increased his
income by selling 1t to his friends and
neighbors. In order to more easily visit
his customers. he bought motor car. This
brought him a rebuke from his bishop
who said a motor car was an ''unclericai
method of locomotion.
The ingenious able thereupon harnessed
a donkey to the car, and drove the animal
through the streets of Agen. Unfortunate
ly, the bishop failed to see the humor Of
the action, and promptly dismissed the able
for wilfuily endeavoring to cast ridfcule on
his superior.

Recorder Goff's Decision.


1T is now over four years since judg-
ment was pronounced upon the defendant.
and during that period he has, through the
most skiIlful and resourceful efforts of sue
cesslve counsel eminent in their profession.
suspended its execution. and now for the
second time since that Judgment he seeks
retrial and denomination of all the
issues that were disposed of by the YER
dict of the jury. For new trial cannot be
confined to the specific question or cause
advanced in the application but 1t Is as If
no trial had ever been had. and devolves
upon the prosecution the burden of again
proving II ii can. every fact detail and cir
cumstance necessary to a conviction This
however. must not initiate in the slightest
degree against granting to the defendant
the relief he asks, II on examination of
his proposed proof there arises a reasonable
presumption that on a new trial the verdict
of the jury would be different"
The recorder discussed the alleged new
evidence for Patrick recently given before
him, saying IL was intended to prove first
that since the trial of Patrick the chief wit
ness against him. Charles F. Jones. had
told people in Texas that ne had nothing to
do with the killing of Mr.. Rice but had
perjured himself in laying the blame on
Patrick In order to free himself, and, Sec
ond that the embaimng fluid injected into
Mr. Riees body made 1t impossible to de-
termine by an autopsy IL Mr.. Rice's death
was due to chloroform. All the evidence
presented is hearsay, the recorder said, SO
far as it relates to Jones, and mo new
jury could, by any new discovery of moral
turpitude. have more comprehensive
knowledge or measure of the quality or
value of Jones testimony than the jury
which delivered the verdict
ITO set aside the verdict of a jury and
the solemn judgment Of a court on such
testimony would in my opinion, be an
abuse of judicial discretion and perversfon
rather than a promotion of justice" the
