A louniy Uno Hatiul Ono MIIII'H I.lio unit Another Cot Out b ) it Chance of liN .Name. was In a roinlnUcent mood und onterlaiiiml a little party of fiinidH with a recital of nicldonLs arising In d mc' of the most Important casoi In which In' li.is iippn.ired as counsel : "I have been engaged. " bo said , "In sev- prnl criminal cases where parlies havoc c i-aped conviction on purely technical grounds. Some of these hnvd been quite iii'ti-d ' , and others very Interesting. "The most Important case was that of the prosecution of J. 1' . Olive mid otlwrs for iimi'iler. This was known as Hie 'man burn- Imr rase. ' Olive , n rich catlto owner , and bis a .siiciales had Ilium- and burned Iwo set- tl'Tt ' In I 'uster county , Nebraska , In Decem ber. | ss. The murder wns committed in n jKTtinii uf thu state which the legislature had lorn. etl Into the comity of Cuslcr. but which hail nut been c-rganlml fur judicial purposes. Thi < crime was of such n.agnltndo that the state nf Nebraska appropriated $10,0.v > for the prosecution of the defendants. 1 was ( .MI olnyed bv the stale , and at thu close of \vliutv-asperhaps the miisioxclting ; and re- liuirhable criminal trial In tlio west , the de fendant Olive and a man named Fisher , who wns tried wl'h ' him , were convicted of nun ill r in thu sosond degree. "Tin1 case was appealed lo the supreme cnurt , but my cmplovnieiil ceased with ttio trial mid I did not appci0upon : the argument of the i aso In the appellate court. The judg ment ( d tbn court below was rove-wed fur M'vernl errors alleged to have occurred In th < trial , nnd they Were absolutely discharged Irom custody and permitted lo eo scotl f reo on a pure let-ill technicality. "The cniistltutton of | s"i divided the state of Nolinisha into slv judicial districts , detln- | Ing their boundaries HO far as Iho state win organi/ed into comities , and attached to the two western Judicial districts the unorgnn- J/ea triritory directly west ol thn western count b's of each. The constitution attached that portion of the unorganl/.ed territory of tin1 .state Iviug west of Valley county to the ' Sixth Judicial district , and th'at portion lying west i > l Sherman county to the Fifth judicial district. Tbo legislature , I believe , In 1 77 , passed an act defining the boundaries of the new county of CnMor. This county embraced n large tract of territory lying west of both Sherman anil Valley counties , and the line betmvn the Fifth and Sixth judicial dis tricts , as established by the constitution , cut the new county of Ouster in two. The su- preni' ' court held that territory embraced in OiiHter county wns no longer unorganized , nnd that the laws of Nebraska which author- l/ed the trial of n person fora crime com mitted In U"organl7ed territory in some other cminty In the district , no longer applied , but Bnia bllvo must bo tried in Ouster county , if tried at all. Half of Custer county Is In the Fifth Judicial district and half In Iho Klxth judicial district ; therefore , the district court of the Sixtli judicial district has no jurisdiction - tion to try the case in Custer county because - cause a Jury must bo summoned , If nt T nil , fiimi the body of the county , and part of the jury would como from the Filth judicial district. It hold for t lie same reason that the district court of the Fifth judicial district had no jurisdiction to try the case , nnd therefore tlio remarkable conclusion was reached that the legislaluro had established n county In which crime could bo committed S with impunity , because no court bad jurisdiction - f diction to t ry the party committing the crime , for the rea ou Unit the line between the two districts divided the county in the center. Olive and Klsher were therefore discharged , nnd sniist antlal justice wns supposed to have been dune. "I recall nnoUicr case In which n young Juan csiaped conviction and punishment for lurgnry on account of hN want of knowledge ns to the grammatical use of tlio ICnglish lan guage. I was assigned by the court to defend n young mail who was "charged with having forged nil order for tbo delivery of a sot of harness , hnvlngslKiied Iho name of Dan Allen thereto. Our law manes it a crime to forgo nn order for the delivery of personal property , J demurred to the Indictment for Iho reason that the order signed read as follows : 'This boy had my authority to ( rot them harness. ' 1 li'slsted , ns is undoubtedly the law , lliat every word in Ibis order should uo given its ordinary , known mid accopled use , niid that the word 'tiad' in the order , was mi expre.ss declaration that the boy had authority to get Iho harness at some time past , but was a negation of the idea that ho Inul any present authority. Judge Snvngo very reluctantly sustained my notion to the indictment , and the defendant was aunsli . "Another curious case was the prosecution of one , lolinny Hull , after an indictment had been rotunieil charging him with being nc- ccssory before Iho fuel to the robbery of a party in a saloon near the depot , by Judpe JUahalToy and others. AlabalTey and Hull were supposed to be members of the old Can- nil i 1)111 ) band nt the time. MahalToy was tried , ( ! en oral Cowin nml I defenillm : him. U'ho Jnrv brought m a verdict of guilty , but When MnhalToy was called he was not to bo found ; In fact ho bus never been found plnce. 1 suppose ho had s > omo doubt ns to tlio ability ot Cowin and myself to secure an nciiuittal , anil took his defense lute his own hands , or trusted to his teet , rather than our heads. Afterwards.loha Dull was pul on trial , and in order to provo a case against him , the re-cord of the trial of case of Mahaf- fev was offered in eviuoneo. Judge LaliC presided , and the prosecution was conducted liy Mr. L'onnell , then district attorney mid bw in congress , assisted by .Tudro Wake-Icy. Mr. Cowin and myself objected to the record for the reason that Dull was being tried as an accessory before the fact , under the statute of thu state of Kebraslta which , wo urged , merely detlnodor re-onacted the common law offense of acces sory before the fact. At common law in or ,1"I to convict an accessory before the fact , there must first have been a trial , conviction nnd attainder of the principal felon. That Is , the person committing the crime must have been trioiiconvicted nnd sentenced before his accessory could bo prosecuted. In order to have Iho conviction of an accessory moro cer tain , the ISucllsh parliament passed a statute In the time of Queen Ann providing that upon the trial of an accessory before the fact it need not bo necessary to nrovo the convic tion nnd sentence of the principal where such sentence had neon rendered impossible by reason of his death , or on account of several other causes , naming them , but none of these exceptions in the statute of Queen Ami cov ered tlio case of a man who had escaped after verdict and before sentence. H was conced ed that this btatuto of Queen Ann was of so nncient n dftto that It had been adopted in this country as a part of our conmon law.but on behalf of the defendant , wo presented n case , decided I think , by the supreme court of Kow Hampshire exactly like the ono on trial , Micro the principal hud been convicted , but escaped from custody before sentcnco ; and in that case It wns held ns stated that nt common law the principal must lirsl bo convicted and senlenced. And II was further held that the remedial staluto of Queen Ann did not cover tin < -aso of a princi pal which had escaped before sentence. Jmlgii Luke sustained our position and in Btructed tbo jury to rot urn a vcrdlcl of ac qultlal , which wns done. H Is probable thai neither his honor nor the eminent couns.0 Who prosecuted know thai some years prior to the trial of that case , the supreme court of Ohio had decided that the crime of accessor ) before tlio fact , as dollned in the Ohio stat Ute , of which ours Is a copy , enntod an hide pendent otTenso , and it was not necessary to Jirst convict a principal before trying the ac ressory. " 1'orhaps the most ludicrous cuso of the Jdnd 1 ever tried was the dofeiiio of a young limn charged with stealing two hogs from Unit portion of Omaha on the river bottom formerly xnown as tlio 'Patch.1 A young limn , whoso name 1 have forgotten , had evi dently let these two hogs out of their pen nt or before davllyht in the morning , driving them 1 through I' ' " ' streets of Onmtm , nnd selling thorn to the dealer at the yards near the old ,1 military bridge. The hogs were stolen from n famllv who adjured a great deal of notoriety in our'pollco courts in connection with the freuuont contests between nelKhbors on the battle Holds of the 'I'atch.1 The indictment charged that these two hrcs were the property of a woman whoso rmino I hnvo now forgotten , but for conveti- jcuoo of statement wo will call her J-lw , Hn Ipet Mil ! moy tin tlu trial of Iho 010 MM , Maluuv toik the stand mid sworn vor\ positively to the ownership of tlio hog. * , mul to tlio fuel of tholr htiflinr IH.VII sliut tin In tlio pen nt night , mid Hint they were left tu quiet ro | > eMi \vhllo her 1'nt nml herself re- tlroil tn the cabin to pe.tcufully slumbor.

H was In \\intereflsslthatwofuund ourselves in the. Internal City. Many ( .

UOHUMVIW iinusunilv full of visitors. I'ooplo even jostled against each other In tlio streets , and to lie elbowed in the thorough faros of the Italian capital always portends some extraor dinary excitement. Monks and nuns were never tnnro numerous , and tlioy How hither and thither , sandled or barefooted , upon errands of great and Joyous importance , met in crowds at the stations , upon the nri'ivalof each train , towolcomo illustrious prelates or more hii'ithlo ecclwlustlrs.

It only remained fur the i > opo to declare , In impressive anil ornate rilual , the enrollineiit of the four confessors of the filltn In the catalogue of the saints. To that solemnity , which was brief , only the of- llcials of the church were admitted , but the following Sunday the ceremony was re peated at length"with greater splendor , and inlluentlal worshippers , or those fortunate enough to obtain a pass diioct from the popej were admitted , and to the kindness of liishop O'Connor and Frere Augustine were wo indebted for our tickets , and also for minute instructions as to our attire and tbo forms we would bo expected to observe dur ing tlio service ) . As the bells of tlio Triidta del Monti tolled the hour of o'clock wo glanced nt our reductions m the glass , and the uncertain candle light throw Into relief two llguivs gowned entirely In black , with black lace veils covering the head , und soar- ranged as to conceal t.ho lace if nrcoisary. A black fan , and a black shawl to kntvl upon completed the simple toilette , and following the advice ot Lady Itamsey , who witnessed bit of something in our puoltets,1' a wise pre caution. Arriving at the Vatican we sta tioned ourselves In the door before the gieat bronze doors , which opened at o'clock and gave us entrance to the corridor of the Scnla Itegia , the grandest staircase in tlio world , and by all moans the chi'f d'ci > uvre of the master , Uernini. There \vo were slopped t > y the Unyul guard , as gorgeous , erect mid in numerable as a royal guard should be , and looking half way up the long but broken llight , between tlio magnificent columns , wo saw Iho Swiss guards in their harlequin uniforms uf black and orange slashed with red , the I'.ipal guard , in their less eonspicions but handsomer cos tumes of black and white satin with three cornered hats. The crowd swelled behind us and each moment bet'aino more Impatient. At last the guard divided , and with \ \ rush that gave no heed to individual hesitancy , tlio people surged up the stairs , tailing upon the Swiss ami Papal guards with such pre cipitation and force that the lines gave way , and the mob-for it was nothing else hurst through the richly furnished aiilo-clmnibcrs , and were only prevented , at the point of the lance , from cnterinir the hall of tlio caunon- i/ation. Another interval of waiting ensued r.nd then a p.udc fell upon us , for the crowd in front cried "tire , " and from the smoke that came through Iho doorway it was appar ent that thcro was mischief being done. Women sereamodmid sovei-.il fainted , und on rnshinir back to the doors that had been so violently thrown open , they were found to bo locked , and terror reigned supreme for a few moments. Hut plenty ot wiitor was brought to tlio blir/o and all danger averted and then moro quietly and dc.uiou.slyve moved to our appointed places In tne hall. The scene was a most brilliant one Tlio magnltlcont room was lighted by no less than r > , ( KK ) candles , one of which , as usual , had worked destruction by ruining a costly portiere. At tlio further end of the chamber , upon a raised dais , was u great , white throne , with a guilt canopy before it supported by spiral columns , beneath which was the altur , hearing seven lighten candles. A passage was cleared by the guards and six heralds entered , bearing silver nmcos. Tney were followed by Iho cardinals , one by one.'dresscd in long red clonks with enormous trains over white smocks , and wore white fur capes and skull caps of red. Kach had Ids attendant priest , and after kneel ing before the altar tcok his scat with duo regard to precedence. Then came more of the Papal guard , and , finally , andd suppressed excitement , and greeted by n glorious burst of music , the Sovereign Pontiff appeared , seated in his magnificent gilt chair , upon the rod velvet haek and scat of which the arms of the faith were emblazoned In gold , lie was borne upon the shoulders of eight of the Swiss guard , tlio tallest men to be found , and his costly white satin robes also heavily embroidered In gold , Illicit the great spaces of the chair , winch his small attenuated form seemed scarcely to touch. Tlio heavy gold tlarn ndorneil with costly stones , seemed to weigh cruelly upon Ids fioblo head , rocking it now and then , dejpitohis elTurts to bear himself erectly. On each side of His Holiness walked the fan bearers , waving the most beautiful white plumes tipped withblack.andcvoryimo in the hall knelt with head reverently bowed , as , extending two lingers of the right hand the Holy Father blessed us , llrst on the right and then on the loft. When .seated upon his tlirono the ceremonies commenced , whichlmt , for the sublime music thnnigout. might have seemed tedious to the uninitialod. A tonlllc thunder storm wns exhausting its fury upon St. 1'otor's and the Vatican , and between the bursts of melody from the choir , or accompanying them , were artillery crashes that soi'inod to shako oven Iho stones upan which ho knelt. Tin ) line volco of a cardinal bishop could bo hoard now and then deliver ing something in Latin ; then the confer was swung at the pope and In turn at each cnrdn nal , who arose and bowed as the ofllelal next In rank above Hidnteil him with incense. Among the cardinals was ouu dressed in black robes with a black capo , another In gray with n gray c.ipe , ami ono an American , wore a beard. ( All proper Uoinan priests nro shaven and shorn and wear tlio tonsure. ) Finally the pope said something in Latin , and bofo'ro the benediction eight cages lllled with beautiful birds were brought forward nml with great solemnity the pretty erea- turos were freed and sent forth into the open air as a symbol , they told us , of the llluht of the four ranoiil/eil souls to the saints in heaven. Then the benediction was an nounced ; wearv Pope Leo XIII. and hl gor geous train retired , and wo passed from the presence of pump and splendor into the un sympathetic daylight , thn wiser in knowing that henceforth the ( Jntholla canon would contain the names of four now saints , one of whom It was proven , hail porformml two miracles wbilo on earth.
