'I'he city's attorneys showed that some of the statements made by the jury- men were false and contended that if he would lie in one particular the chances were that he would lie inall, In rendering his de- cision Judge Deemer said that if there was any way by which ho could sustain the ver- gict lie would do %0, but the supreme court had decided more than once that any such action as that of the juryman in question in- validated the verdict. e uccordingly su tained tho motion for u new trial, T Favor of a Gold Care Concern, Tho casc of F.

Hayes ngainst James McCabe, a judgment was rendered for the defendant. ~The plaintiff, us assignee for a plumbing firm, sued to ‘collect the price of some furnaces that were put in McCabe's house.

State Champlons Collingham and Battin Suffer Deteat from Young and Cookson, Another step toward the completion of the city tennis tournament was taken yesterday, and there are now seven matches remaining to be decided—five in the doubles and two in the singles. Yesterday's play was noteworthy for the defent of Messrs, Cullingham and Battin, ate champions, They were opposed by retary C. H. Young and C. H. Cookson who gave Mr. Cullingham such a hard Aght in the singles the night before. Cookson was again in excellent form, apparently never missing an _ opportunity to score, He put in a fo successful fast services, but, like most players, he re- Jies less on this kind of game than he did a r or two ngo. Young also contributed share to the victory. There wero few ors of judgment noticeable in his play, and 1t was generally safo to expect that if a ball was sent to him he would show that he knew what o do with it. On the other side of the net Battin, who ot more than his share of the balls, did less than his ehare of the scormng, while Culling u also appeared to be & bit “off color." 'would be unfair, however, to say that the victory was due to the_shortcomngs of the defeated, for both Young and Cookson played throughout with a vim and determi- nation that presaged a victory which was as well deserved as it was decisive. This was the chief event of the day. The match in which Bowman and Haskell had overnight won and lost one set against Til- den and Seville ended in the victory of the fcrmer pair; and MeKell and Brown also suc- coeded 1 leaving Butler and Pratt out of the race, though they lost a set in_doing it. Tonight Young and Cookson will do their bestito continue their victorious career, and Fosbenner and Lawrence will strive their hardest to make the task a difficult one. I'hat outstanding tie between Hart and Denise in the semi-final of the singles is also on the program for tonight. Scores: DOUBLES—FIRST ROU ©. 1. Young and . 11, Cookson lingham und J. W.

She was ant times leading lady for Booth, Barrett and Keen A STRANGE ACCIDENT, A Town in Germany Entirely Wiped Out by an Artesinn Well, A curious fate has overtaken the little town of Schueidemuhl, in the Duchy of Posen, The people of Schneidemuhl had a town pump ‘which had supplied them with water for many years. Dur- ing the cholera epidemic last summer the water fell under suspicion, which analysis' scemed to confirm. It was therefore determined w0 go deeper and the pipes of an artesian well were put down. At adepthof forty-four meters an underground reservoir was tapped and the water, pressed on by the superincumbent soil, rushed up with great force. When the artesian pipe was stopped the water forced its way up outside the pipes, bringing up with it quantities of sand, All the etJnrts since made to stop the flow have been useless, and as the water rires the earth sinks. The ob- vious inference seems to be that so long as there was no escape for it the water formed an incompressible stratum on which the upper earth rested in safety. ivery hydraulic press illustrates the enormous force water will bear and will convey when no outlet is provided for it; but let there be & vent and it yields to a touch. So with the hidden water stratum under the Posen It bore up the weight JULY 13, of fifty-four meters of salid earth so long as thero was no outlet, but the artesian pipo lot it loose and it rushed out from ts confinement, and the soil it had borne above it necessarily sank down. There is nothing remarkable, nothing altogether unexpected. It has been often polnted out that there is a danger to which artesian wells may expose us. Alarm has sometimes been expressed at the possible, though not probable, re- sult of tapping to any large extent the Water-boaring strata under London. The case of Schneidemuhl is perhaps the first in which this danger, which has always been theoretically recognized, has been realized toa very serious ex- tent, P — PADEREWSKI'S FORROW, HWe Lost Mis Wife When and P Paderewski was younger once—it goes without saying: moreover he was more handsome, but less interesting.

So it went on, and the wife—she was not less cheerful, but she remained on the couch for hours every day.
