Inspired ny JOAQUIN Miller.

Charles Wakefield Cadman, the fa-
nous composer, found inspiration for
his sonata for the piano in A major,
OPP. SO, in Joaquin Miller's poem,
'From Sea to Sea-" Cadman said he
prided himself on the inspiration he
got from Miller's works in which he
sang to the West of the United States.
Cadman's first movement showed
the West before the white man found
It, and naturally he had to ring in his
eternal love for the Indian. Without
being too much Influenced by the poet
Miller, Cadman tried to carry out his
idea, his longing for the West. 1t may
be taken as the pioneers thoughts Of
the eastern or southern home he has
left in quest for the new, undiscoV-
cred land. Cadman also speaks Of his
paean of rejoicing for the continent
now constructed. Triumph, pride,
beauty, happiness, optimism, breadth
and ecstasy are the things he tried to
write into his compositions. (

LAWYER CAVE UP
Legal Light Wisely Retired From
Unequal Combat.
Little Else to Do After Judge Had So
Thoroughly Proved the ElIgl-
biiity Of Colonel Jones as
Juryman.

Presiding over a judicial district In
the Tennessee mountains is an old gen.
tleman who invariably demands of liti-
gants, before the machinery of the
court is set in motion: "Do you want
book law or jestice in this here court?''
"Jestice" has always been promptly
declared for, and his honor must have
distributed it with wise and kindly
hand, inasmuch as he has been re-
elected, almost unanimously, on every
voting day ever since the Civil war.
Natives do not usually regard law
yer as q necessity when cause is to
be decided by this lawgiver Of the hills.
Each man states his case for himself,
and the judge simply tells. the wit
nesses to ."jest tell the jury all about
this here matter, so far as you air in
formed" and helps out with a few
direct questions when the testimony
seems not quite clear.
Not so long ago, however, "a for
eigner"-from Kentucky-joinedi issues
with a native, and imported lawyer
from Nashville. Among the other
strange and unprecedented things that
the lawyer did was to challenge GER
tain of the men who were expected,
as matter of course, to form the jury.
Being juryman is recognized pro-
fession In that particular region, and
the lawyers objections occasioned both
astonishment and anger in the breasts
Of the &ay-bearded regulars.
sColo1el Jones has been on the jury
every settin' of this cote for thirty
years." the old Judge demonstrated
gently, in one instance. "He always
has proved powerful satisfactory to
the cote and to all others concerned.
OF course, as we air goin' to have book
law in this case, you can object to
Colonel Jones if yo' want to, but I
would pussonally like mighty well to
know why yo' object to him."
...From his conversation. overheard
by chance, I am convinced that this
man would be unable to give proper
weight to the evidence shall intro
duce, your honor" the lawyer ex-
planned briskly. "He is unacquainted
with the meaning Of the most ordi-
nary words"
'That so?" the old judge remarked,
pushing up his spectacles and survey
ing Colonel Jones reprovingly. "Now,
I always thought that he was right
well along in words. What was it
he didn't seem to know the right
meanin' OFF,
'The term preponderance Of evi-
denee,' your honor" the lawyer assert,
ed, 'was most absurdly construed by
this man. He"
"Oh, reckon not" the old judge in
terrupted, with a kindly smile. II
reckon you just misunderstood him. l
am plumb sure that Colonel Jones
knows as well as do that preponder-
ance of evidence means evidence pre-
viously pondered-don't you. colonel?"
"Objection withdrawn, your honor"
the lawyer said weakly.-Philadelphia
Ledger.

BETTING NOW EVEN
| ON A THIRD PARTY
Would Reduce Harding Odds,
Says Expert to 3 Laid
On Henry Ford.

NEW YORK. July lO.-While there
were reports OF Stock Exchange bet
ting at ! u TO In favor of Harding.
James w. Ball & Co. yesterday con-
tinued To quote the odds at to ].
The nrm states that Cox's supporters
In New York are holding of for long
er odds.
People In the West were disposed
to back Cox at the quoted odds. Yes
terday Fred Schumm. of Brooklyn re-
ceived an offer by wire from man
In Jefferson city. Mo, TO put up $500
on Cox against $4,000 on Harding
which transaction was completed late
In the afternoon. Other relatively
small wagers were made both by Ball
& Co. and Schumm on the same basis.
Schumm reported rather heavy
betting on the prospects OF either
candidate carrying the several
doubtful states. He reported haY-
ing placed 81, 900 against l,400 t5'to
- that Cox will carry Ohio; $500
again 500 % to - that Harding
will carry New York. New Jersey
and Massachusetts,: 900 even that
the Republican candidate Will carry
New York State, and 5000 against
$500 90 to % that the Ohio Senator
will capture Illinois.
Whereas on Thursday. the quoted
odds on there being a third party In
the field were to 0. yesterday Mr..
Schumm placed 500 even on this
proposition. He gave II as his opin-
ion that in the enent OF there being
split in the Republican party
through the nomination on a third
party ticket OF La Toilette, for eN-
ample, the odds In favor of Harding
| would go to to 8.
The introduction OF Henry Ford
as the possible Presidential candidate
OF the third party aroused much in
| terest. Schumm made a wager Of
$500 against $1,000 q to 81 that II
the automobile manufacturer is nom
mated on such a ticket he will be
elected.

other parties did 1T to trap her and
was more consistent in this than In
a design TO make. away with her"
Judge Hardison declared that he did
not think the persons who were con-
cerned in these parties would
stoop to aid Mrs. Acker in any plot
to do away with Mrs. Snow.
II think Mrs. Acker's plan was TO
trap her, rather than the more sinis-
ter desire. "a
"As look into this evidence the
only testimony to which can see any
significance is the telephone convex
sation between Mrs. Acker and Mr..
Snow which was overheard by Mr..
Davis, attorney for Mrs. Snow.
II have no doubt but what Mr..
Davis was truthful in what he relat
ed about the. telephone conversation
and / think Mrs. Snow told the truth"
At this point in his decision Judge
Hardison read the telephone converse
ton from the record and proceeded to
''pick it apart" He first went into
the answers in which Mr.. Snow said:
Good" Eyes" and "all right" to
statements of Mrs. Acker. He refer
red to the word "finish." which Mrs.
Acker said and declared Mr.. Snow
could easily have taken that to mean
she would finish the case today"
1T could also mean that the pur-
pose mentioned in the charges would
be finished" he said.
SNOW IS CONGRATULATED.
"Mr Snow was bad witness
against himself" he said. II rather
accepted Mr.. Davis memory Of the
conversation than Mr.. Shows. i be-
lieved Mr.. Shows old age might pos
sibly be the cause of his not-remem-
bering every word in the converse
tion and that he might be confused.
"Then again, referring to the warn
ing Snow had some days before that
Mrs. Acker was conspiring against
him. ! don't think Snow would take
part in any conversation which he
knew might be incriminating. Snow
is not a fool. He is clear-he AIDED
from the hen. He wouldn't be fool
phone which might incriminate him
self.
"I do not believe the grand jury
would hold Mr.. Snow on the evidence
that has been presented to this court
by the Government. 1t would be
a farce on my part to hold him.
''There is no proof of a conspiracy
being entered into. The only part
of the evidence that I attach any sig
nificance to is the telephone conver-
sation. Let the case be dismissed"
Snow was showered with congratu-
lations by friends after Judge Hardi-
son made his decision.
