MOTION TO DISMISS WAS OVERRULED Dcfrnir Tut on n Number of People to I'rovo the Good Character of the De fendant Number of Ilootlrggon llroucht I'n ' fur .Sentence. Another day was occupied In the taking of evidence In the pension case of the United States against A. A. Edglngton. The morn ing session was filled up with an effort on the part of the government to establish the Identity of the signature of Maurice F. Edg- Ington. A deed executed by him to W. B , Cuppy was Introduced , and several witnesses were called In to swear to the signature. The testimony was all stricken out. The government Introduced the Instruc tions of the department to examiner Ilrown , but the defense objected to their admission on the ground that the statements contained In them might prejudice them. The court , however , admitted them , with the under standing that they were to bo taken only as show Ing the Jury whether Drown had acted on the Instructions or with undue zeal. If the Instructions contained statements that showed the government considered the repre sentations made by the defendants were false the examiner would bo Justified In using all the power lie had to get to the bottom of the thing , but these Instructions must not be taken by the Jury as evidence that Mrs. Udglngton's pension claim was fraudulent. The district attorney also laid the affidavit of A. A. KOglngton before the Jury , and then rested his case , at 11:15 : a. m. Attorney Shea imide a motion asking the court to take the case from the Jury and render a verdict of not guilty , on the grounds that the section of the statutes under which the Indictment had been brought had been repealed by the passage of another section ; that the government had failed to show that 1 ' Mrs. Hdgington's claim was fraudulent , or that the defendant had any Intention of deceiving the government In making his allhlavlt. This motion was overruled by the court. DEFENSE TAKES AN INNING. Amos Wright was the first witness put upon the stand by thedefense. . lie lived at Avoca In 18S2 and occupied the office of Justice of the peace. Ono night , between midnight and morning , he was called out of bed by " 1J111" Cuppy , as he called him , to marry his sister , Jane Cuppy , to a man whom ho had never seen before. He did not remember the name of the groom , but said ho afterwards heard him called "Doc" Edglngton. In the afternoon A. P. Cramer , Sheriff Hazen , I ) . Dledrlch , W. W. Gardner , John Puttcrson and L. M. Itogers were put upon the stand and each one swore to the defend ant's good reputation at hl home In Avoca. Rogers stated that ho had talked with Edg- . ington and had told him that ho knew his father , and that the elder Edfitugton had told 1 him years ago that ho was In the war , that ho wore soldiers' clothes , and that he was at the battle of Wilson creek. This Information he gave the son In the course of a conversa tion In which Kdglngton had asked him for Information concerning his father. The testi mony was considered ot some Importance to the defendant's side of the case , Inasmuch as Rogers said at first that the conversation took place a year ago , and Kdgington might be reasonably supposed to have acted upon his information In making out his affidavit. The cross-examination , however , had a distinct shock In store for the defense , for Rogers then said that the conversation was not held last year , but only last week , long after the present suit had been begun. The evidence was all ordered stricken out-and the further trial of the case was postponed uutll Monday morning. Judge Woolson then callei up a few boot leggers and disposed of them. John Hall , It ap | > eared , had alternated between working and drlnUlng ; he would work when ho couldn't get drunk , but he had never given the preference - once to work. He got a sentence of $300 and four months In Jail , but the sentence was sus pended during good behavior. Lewis Wllllts of Vllllsca had been In the penitentiary for fourteen months for forging a man's name to an application for liquor at a drug store , and In addition to this he had been found guilty of bootlegging. His sen tence of $350 and four months In Jail was also suspended. Charles Macrae of Charlton had run up against the state law , had paid a fine of $100 and served six months in Jail for trying to avoid the use of the mulct law In his busi ness. After this experience he had succeeded In keeping his peace with the state authorities by paying a monthly fine , and then the gov ernment authorities got after him. Ills case needed more thought on the part of the court , and he was sent back to Jail for a while before - fore having his sentence pronounced. Lewis C. Wells of Prescott , Adams county , had run a saloon , gambling house and a paint shop , and In addition to Jill these mul tifarious duties had found time to break iiwny and take a long , luxurious pull at the Keeley cure. Ills sentence was also left open for a few days. HUNMSON IIUUS. IlHrentns In Kverjr Dopnrtmont.

TJMCIIKICS CONCI.UDK TIIIMIt SIMSION. IN.nt Last Huy IVus In Miinjr Ilopnoti the Mail Intcreitlni ; of Any. The closing sessions of the Southwestern Iowa Teachers' association were- held yester day at Presbyterian church , and perhaps exceeded In Interest any of those of the former two days. The attendance , as shown by the registration books , Is 751 , and It Is J said that there were quite a number of teachers present who failed to heed the Injunction junction to sign their names. This Is the high water mark of attendance. The largest ; gathering of teachers ever held In the state : was that at Falrflcld last year. Hie anual meeting ot the Southeastern Iowa associa tion , when there were 701 present. The morning session was preceded by a drill of the High school cadets , who did , themselves and the Institution they repre I sent great credit by their ijulck obedience to military commands. The teachers , who witnessed this from the street In front . of the Presbyterian church , then adjourned In ' doors and saw the class drills In mutlc by sixth grade pupils under the direction of Lillian Jackson of this city , and the drill In numbers by pupils of the second grade , under thu leadership of Mrs. Lizzie Gleason , also of this city. Doth ot these exercises were pronounced by many of the superin tendents and teachers as the finest they had ever seen. J.V. . Clark of Red Oak spoke on the subject of school athletics , taking the view that they should bs encouraged. William Dell of Dedtord held the same opinion , al- though he was oposed to allowing any pro fessional athlets to take part with the pupils. He advocated larger grounds and more rooms which could be used for athletic purposes In bad weather. The correlation and unification of studies was discussed by G , I , Miller of Doone , Dr , Marble of Omaha , State Superintendent Sabln , Superintendent Cooper of Des Molnes , Dr. I King of Mount Vcrnon , W. C. Van Ness of Denlson , and Superintendent Merrill of Cedar Kaplds , the latter taking advantage of the opportunity for booming the Interstate con vention of teachers' to bo held In Denver next July , for which he Is acting as state manager.

Burke owned a mule , which , It appears , had a way of propping Itself up against a telephone pole to think. One day It was doing this when Shaughnessy drove along and found It necessary to move It , In order that his own team might occupy that particular spot : of the earth'n surface. Just as bo had gotten tha animal transferred from the telephone pole to the Iron support of the Grand hotel porch on Pearl street. It breathed Its last. Burke Immediately commenced a suit against Shaughnessey for $35 , the price of the mule , The defendant yesterday filed the following answer and counter claim : Now comes the defendant and swears that the plaintiff wick edly , feloniously and without fear of Clod or care for his fellow man In his heart , drove upon the streets of Council Bluffi a sick and diseased mule , whoee name Is to this de fendant unknown. The defendant , while engaged gaged In his vocation as a teamster , waa ' obliged to lead It from Its position. In which It was blocking the puWlo highway He ap. preached the mule , < not knowing of Its dls- easrd condition , and. exposed his health and greatly endangered' ' ! ! hlu life. In reason whereof a Judgment ' .for $100 damages It demanded. The case was lakefl trhdcr advisement. I'liiinrr-AilU.

SAN FRANCISCO , April 13. Lccal demo crats do not look upon the retirement of Chief Justice Stephen G. Field as likely to take place soon. The pressure that Is being tabi bi ought to bear to Induce him to retire , they say , may be true , but when It would be as a punishment for doing what he considered his duty they think ho will hardly yield. Some time ago Field made known his Intention of retiring. He changed his mind , but that clicumstance gave credit to the rumor that he was about to yield to the demands of his et.tmles and carry out his first decision. "Judge Field will not retire , " was what Governor Dudd had to say about the matter. "Who would probably succeed him If he In should withdraw from his position ? " "Well , I tell you I don't think he'll with draw , but It he should there Is only one logical successor. That Is William T. Wal lace. I consider Judge Wallace the foremost jurist of this country today , " continued the governor with warmth. "There Is not an other man who could so nobly fill the place as l > e. " Congressman James G. Magulre was quite certain that Mr. Field had absolutely no in tention of retiring. He , too , however , favos Ji dgo Wallace as Fbld's successor In case ot the hitter's retirement , and other demo cratic politicians and lawyers take the same view. Hloek Man Annulled In lll ( Idler.
