Justice Cones has unearthed n now legal
point which will probably awaken some in
terest In certain quarters. The case of J. H.
Vcrnon against J. M. Shoa , In which the
plaintiff seeks to recover $75 rent from the
defendant by means of a landlord's ' writ of
attachment , vas begun In his court several
days ago but Shea wanted a change of von tie
on the ground that the court was prejudiced.
The necessary allidavit was lllod forth
with and Shea claimed his right. Jus
tice Cones , however , refused to grant
the continuance until the fee of
fiO cents was deposited with him In advance.
Shea refused to pay , und left the oftlco.
When the time came which had been sot for
the trial of the case. Shea was not there , and
the Justice wont on and heard the evidence
and rendered a Judgment against him upon a
default for the whole amount asked for.
Cones looks for a largo spot of blood on the
moon as soon as Shoa cots around to do the
decorative work , and it is probable the dis
trict court will bo called upon to render a
decision on the merits of the c.iso.

An advertising clock at the corner of
Broadway and I'earl street Is a melancholy
monument to the folly of trying
to advertise one's business bv fake
methods. Several weeks ago n
smooth-tongued Individual made the
rounds of the various business houses and
induced a number of proprietors to toke out
n curd six inches square , for which they
wore to p.iy $15 or $ JO. The cards , with the
advertisements of the diffeicnt houses ,
wore uriungcd alter the style of n
panorama , in which the adver
tising cards were sopurutod by ullegcd photo
graphs of views of vurious parts of the uni
verse. The ilrst day one of the lenses
through which the panorama was supposed
to be looked ut was broken in by some young
ster whoso enthusiasm exceeded his good
sense. The next day ono of tlio lower panels
was kicked out by some ono who wanted to
sco how the thing walked. A day or two
nco another panel was kicked out in
order to let the August breezes play at will
through the recesses of the fake , and now It
stands on the corner , looked at by few and
admired by none , while the names of the ad
vertisers look down on the passer-by as a
standing admonition to them to conlino their
advertising patronage to the columns of the
newspapers. _

Michigan delivered n rousing two hours'
spdcch hero tonight to n largo audience of
both parties. Ho took ns his theme the
difference between the two leading parties on
the tarilT , showing how the democratic
theory of free trade adds to the cost ot the
necessaries of life by having a tariff on
articles which can't bo produced In this
country which tariff must of necessary bo
udded to the tlio cost price of the article ; how
the republican theory of protective
duty cheapens such articles by building
up homo manufactories and home
competition. He took ns an Illustration of
tlio ropubli"nn theory such articles us salt ,
hardware , woolen goods , etc. , showing how
the Increase in tariff builds up homo manu
factories and Increasing home competition
the price to iho comsumors. Ho referred
with words of praise to the McKinley bill.
and asked nnv democrat present to name u
single article that the tariff under this bill
has raised the price. No answer wus forth
coming. Ho paid n glowinq tribute to Iowa
and her crou reports , and advised the people
ple to support n man for chief magistrate
of the state who will at least tell
the truth about the state when away from
homo instead ot drawing on visionary statis
tics to slander the best state in the union.
This was ono reason why ho liked the rouub-
licun party. It was for our own country , our
own state ! our own honor llrst and whatever
are had good advice give to the other follows
