Drum was a foxhound and his mas ter sued the man who killed him. i'fctf case was brought In Johnson county, Mo., some years ago, and Its lejjal iltlo was Charles Burden vs. Leon Ida a Hornsby, but It was known as the Drum ca&e, because that was the name of the dog. George tJ. Vest, tiov lenator. as attending court In War renaburg, the county seat of Johnson, and the adjoining county on the west of Pettis, now the home of so many members of the Missouri Field Trial Association, and it Mas while waiting for the trial of a case in which h- was Interested that he was urged by the counsel for the prosecution. Colonel Blodgett, since general solicitor for the North Missouri, Railroad, now the Wabash, to help him. Drum, the fox hound, was known fur and near in that part of Missouri as one of the fastest, best nosed, least uncertain, having the most singularly musical and regular voice, and the most tkeleea foxhound In the, chase. No hunt of any Impor tance was had, in Johnson, Casa or Henry counties for Reynard that Drum was not a prominent figure. He seldom opened on the trail that he did not. run down the game and modestly presented "the brush" to Its owner, making no difference, whether It was a grey or red fox. , Voluminous evidence was introduced to show that the defendant had shot the dog- In malice, while other evidence went to show that, the dog had attack ed the defendant. Thomas T. Critten den, later Governor of the State, and F. M. CockreU, now Senator, 'were the defendant's attorneys. After the evi dence was presented and the Instruc tions given by the court, Judg Foster P. Wright, then presiding, allowed two' speeches an a aide, covering tour hours. saying:, "i want. this. dog case to be fully tried and ended; It has, already exhausted too much time.'? . . Colonel Blodgett made the opening speech lor Drum, followed by Mr. Crit tenden and IMr. .CockreU. XM latter thought' thews had the Jury, on their siae, politically, ana. sympathetically, and the verdltt was sure to be against Drum, i Colonel. Blodgett i had made a great apeech.f ov botng always an et compllahed trial lawyer, but naturally every one. thought Mr. CockreU- had made greater oie.; Half of th Jurors were Crittendeft St Cockrell'a clients wno naa never' failed them on previous trials, when they?, $ad .halt a chance ior . veraicu ,;xiie court- adjourned after; Mr. Cockrell'a .speech, Which all then thought was a favorable omn, as he had made such a speech, as. the Jury could retlro on, a the nor Jtrwas weighed, the more strong points there were. to be considered bv the lurora. KfMr.. Vest took no , part In the trial noi aispoaea to speaK, IJOIO hel Blodgett,'', however, urged ihlm to make a speech. Being thus1 urged he arose, scanned the face of each, Jury man for a moment, and all!',-'.s' v'i'Oentlemenior the JUry: s The besl' friend -av, mart' Jias in . the World may turn against ' hirft- ana become ' his enemy. ; His -t of daughter that he has reared wi n .lovhg bare may prove ungrateful" , Those who are umimi and' dearest to . us, those', whom- we trust with our happiness and our good name, may become traitors to their faith. , The money that a- roan has he may lose, i it flia ur mm htm perhapa when- he needs it ' most.; - A man a reputation may pe eacrifleed In av moment , of ill-considered . action. The i people who are; prone to fall on. their knees to do us honor when suc cess la wlthua may be vthe : first, to throw. the stone of mallca when failure settles. its cloud Airion our "head The one absolutely itr.

A man's dog stands by him In prosperity and poverty. In health and in sickness. He will sleep on the cold, ground,., whore the wintry winds blow and Jhe Isnow drives fiercely. If " he dnly may be near his master's side. He will kiss the hand that has no food tA.offer; he will lick the wounds and eor.es that come in en counter with the roughness of the world. He guards the sleep of his pauper master as If he were a prince. When all other friends desert he re mains. When riches takes wings and reputation falls to pieces he Is as con stant in his love as the sun- in Its Journeys through the heavens. If for tune drives the master forth -an out cast In the world, friendless and home less, the faithful dog asks no higher privilege than that of accompanying him, to guard against danger, to fight agatnBt his .enemies. And when the last scene of a! I comes, and death takes the master In its embrace and his body is laid away in the cold ground, no maVer if a11 otner Wends pursue their way, there by the grave side will the noble dog be found, his head between his paws, his eyes sad, but open In alert watchfulness, faith ful and true In death." Then Mr. Vest sat down. He had spoken In a low voice, without a gesture. He made . no reference to evidence or the merits of the case. When he finished Judge and Jury were wiping their eyes. The Jury filed, out, but soon returned with a verdict in favor of the plaintiff for $000. He hai sued for $200. It is eyen fald that some of the Jurors wantad""to hang the de fendant. - IIEXDERSON NKWS - ITEMS." New Methodist Protestant Pastor Tn keg . Charge- Personals and Xews Kotes.
