There was a long pause of expectancy. His Honor shifted uneasily in his seat, for he brooks no delay in the appearance of culprits at the bar, and | vet the fifty-three cans of opium came | not. There was a bustle at the door, and United States District Attorney Marshall | hurried into the courtroom | th a moth-eaten volume of minutes un- | der his arm. Mopping his brow, he took | ‘nt Judge and | ed | Woodworth “If your Henor will pardon the delay I think I can account for the non-appear- ance of the defendant in this case,” be- | gan the District Attorney in his suavestq tones. “The truth is, vour Honor, that fifty-three cans of opium, the defendant in this case, has suffered the full penalty of the law these ten yvears hence. Crema- tion at the hands of the Collector of In-| ternal Revenue acting at that time has| prevented sald defendant from appearing in his own behalf. | “By reference to these records, of'the date of 1592, I find that fifty-three cans | of opium, the defendant in this suit, was | turned over to the said revenue officer | immediately upon Its seizure, contrary to | all due form®of law, and without being | given any bearing in its own behalf was by that officer destroyed and no record of | & the procedure was given this court. I therefore move that the case he dis- missed.” “The case is dismissed,” said the Judge, and he turned wearily to the next suit on the calendar. . Courtney Arguments Postponed. The closing arguments in the case of John Courtney, alias “Leadville Jimm) charged with participating in the murder | of Policeman Eugene C.

I]ESI]HlHES GRENT | -~ MEN HE HAS MET of Peculiar Greatness Are “Homely.” Pioneers | ertain- The Daughters of California received their friends at an ment at Pioneer Hall yesterday. The Rev. | Dr. W. Rader was among those who | | spoke to the large company. He chose | Men I have met.” sald that the most interesting | thing in the world was the study of per- sonality. His coming in ntact with | | many influential men of letters and com- merce whep a student of divinity, and particularly since that period, had given him an insight into human nature which was, he sald, invaluable. The lecturer | gave sketches of Henry Ward Beecher, of the late Joseph Parker of London, of Talmage. and followed with a neat, interesting and original word picture their_good looks. and with the exception of Talmage. Morgan was the ‘“‘most homely man” he had ever met. With it all, said the doctor, he was the “Shakes- peare of Finance” and he had in his per- sonality a fascinating characteristic. Be- hind his rough exterior, said the dogtor, there was the genius. CAINE LOOKS DYSPEPTIC. Dr« Rader gave graphic descriptions of Walt Whitman, Whittier and Hall Caine. The latter looked to him to be a dyspep- tic, a dreamer, 2 man ever in thought. | Whitman and Whittier, he said, were | better known :in England than here in the United States. To each he paid a high tribute, while at the same time giving a good account of the personal charac- teristics of each. Speaking of great women of the United States and elsewhere, Dr. Rader men- tioned Susan B. Anthony, whom he deem- ed one of the greatest friends of Ameri- can women, while, he said, he did not agree with all her views. There were three kinds of women, said the doctor. First, there was the woman without individuality, whom he likened to | “an orange without juic: Second, he said, there was the woman with too much individuality, of which class, he said amid loud laughter, Carrie Nation was a type. He likened that class of women to “a tiger's heart wrapped in a woman's hide. The third type was the domestic wom- an, who was the greatest of all. At the conclusion of the lecture Dr. Rader received a hearty vote of thanks. During the afternocon Mrs. L. A. Lar- sen sang two songs, “Violets,” by Ellen ‘Wright, and “Sognai,” by Schira. The officers Who were present and as- sisted In receiving the members and friends and dispensing hospitality were the president of the Daughters of Cali- fornia Ploneers, Mrs. R. H. Morse, Mrs. R Hutchison, Mrs. J. J. Donnelly, Miss Martha Degener, Mrs. H. P. Tricou, Miss | J. Tillman. Among the pioneers present were Marshal W. C. Duncan, E. A. T. Gallagher, W. B. Latham, W. G.
