GOOD AJJD ,STJFFICINT EVL DENCE,., Nothing Is apparently so far from court' agreement,' than to de cide positively what is good and sufficient 'evidence in cases that come np for trial. Paid witnesses, interested parties, hired detectives can give, most startling evidence, and yet juries and judges will not accept such, to give a verdict in accordance with statements made. The dictagraph as a record pro ducer was thought to be final in giving truth for the court. And yet a few days ago several expert stenographers in the Lorimer in vestigation upon examination of notes said to have been obtained by the dictagraph, cast doubt up on their genuineness. All of which goes to show that man Can as inge niously make inventions answer to double purposes, for stenographers can cause the dictagraph to do fraudulent work, so that the die tagrapn is just as good in its rec ords as the man wants it to be who takes the testimony. Single unsupported testimony, even of good witnesses, has no more weight in being accepted in an important case, than that of witnesses who may not have much personal character, few persons want to attend court and run the almost certain chance of being turned about giving in their evi dence. Many an honest witness under adroit questioning will give evidence that is practically the op posite to that the witness intend ed to give. Of course it is not good and sufficient evidence to the side that wanted his testimony. But, it has served to frighten the witness,' so that he will not again be found on the 'stand, if he can escape service. ' ' NEXT t Shortly after midnight on the ntght of August 26th, 1905, John Moore, colored, ' was taken from Craven county jail and hung and shot, with his body suspended on Neuse river bridge. ' Moore had struck a white woman, in an at tempt at robbery near Clarks on Friday' Aug. 26th," was .captured and brought to this' city,' for trial. About aff hour before midnight on Christmas night Jfill, Baker Bryan,White,-shot and killed Will Averyj on West street, in thiacity. After being out nearly four days, after a trial, a jury acquitted Ba ker Bryan of murder. ; Serious crimes, like serious acci dents are not the usual result of the moment '.There are' causes that lead up to each, that produce such j' "surely, certainly, unfailing ly.

With out just court action, an action that carries with it sure pronunci ation as to the crime, there is a wreck to community stability. ' A jury verdict may stand for the in dividual opinion of twelve citizens, in court, but outside it represents and stands for town, city county and its glory or shame becomes the part of the citizenship where the verdict is rendered. No juror can lightly render a verdict, for it be comes the part of his community. If it is a disgrace, a mistreatment, the verdict passes to the discredit, the shame of the community, where it is rendered. The jury has become the instrument to bring shame upon the citizenship, that it swore to honor and protect. roLKiDimpiiis rON RHEUMATISM KIDNEYS AMD BLA0BM There ia a reason for everything except for a woman's reason. hows 7Ws7 We offer One Hundred Dollars Reward for any case of Catarrh that cannot be cured by flail's Catarrh Cure.

She half turned aa easy chair for me and I ated myself In it, my eyes running over the room. The quiet richness of Its furnishings was a revelation.. Ex quisite taste waa in the very air. Several of the darkly rich pictures were either original masterpieces or copies so cleverly executed that I could not detect the difference. The oriental vases were . magnificent to kens of barbaric art, and were over flowing .-with great clusters of blood red roses. The furniture was, of the handsomest and the tapestries heavy and rich. As to Mrs. Dace's income I had bo knowledge, but at least her apartments were Men of rental 'and quipped with extravagance. ; For Soma reason, Richard Mackay's name Came creeping through my mind like aa evil thing, and I squirmed inward ly at the thought ' I had never seen tha man's face outside of the papers, butthat In Itself was enough. While It was not unhandsome In a strong animal way, the stamp of vice was in delible upon it It seemed a sacri lege to even mention his name in con nection with that of this exquisite .woman, for his reputation was as contaminating as his personality waa poisonous. Furthermore, -he was married. 'i-k-v . It is not my' intention to go further Into the particulars of my private af fairs with.. Mrs. Dace-than is neces sary for a complete understanding of tha "circumstances which surrounded tha mysterious crime against my uncle. '-Briefly. ! will say that in the next month we were much together, end most of the time alone. She seemed to prefer it that way; I cer tainly did, and under those auspicious surroundings our friendship rapidly thickened. It was a delirious time to me, wherein during the days I walked like one In a trance when apart from bar; dreamed rapturously- of her by night and was in a chafing fever of discontent when not by her Bide. Of Bruce's dragon I saw nothing, while aa for other, would-be suitors, she tact fully kept them at bay. Having oc casion to notice this, and of course being secretly delighted by It, I nev ertheless one day asked her why. she shunned those who wished to pay her attentions. She stifled a yawn be hind her handkerchief. ; ''Most men bore me," she answered, quietly. I leaned closer. ? .i . "I wish you to tell me frankly And do ir v .si- .v,; C 8he swaxed away from me slightly,, not. answering, her .cheeks swept by, her falling lashes' , and-her., bosom welling to its round fullness. I drew so close that her soft hair brushed my face. "Matie tell me," I pleaded ; ' Her eyes, in whose fathomless depths the soul of any man might well have been drowned, looked up at me. .She smiled and one hand fell feather light upon my own, setting every nerve to: tingling as a harp vibrates When swept broadcast by a hand. And as an earthwork la annihilated by a cloudburst, so was all my restraint swept away by the flood of passion that arose within me; my blood leap ing like a mountain, torrent and my heart lighting its way to my throat Not stopping to think what I said or did, scarcely realizing; ouly knowlnf that I loved this creature with a pas . sion that would no longer -bt? cci trolled, I crushed her to me and heV bar helpless as I rained Ue aver eyea and lips and cried out my terra for her in broken, half-coherent sentences. ' She did hot resist, and I doahtJf I would have 'known It had sua tu)l(i W, SUCS WSS uTXmj.iy ul cay 'fervor. Nor did she respond In the least and when my first ardor had exhausted itself and my arms re laxed1 she quietly broke away from me. Her face was flushed and her hair disordered, but her voice was as calm as the first time she ever spoke to me and she told me that I was for' setting myself and must leave her at once. Uncertain as to whether she had submitted to my outburst with more or less Indifference as the best way of extricating herself from an embarrassing situation, . or whether aha was secietly angry, yet worried greatly over tha consequences of my Impetuosity, I held out pay hand ap peallngly aa I begged her forgiveness that In my great love for her I had taken . advantage of . my superior strength. My hand she eluded by a step backward and bcr perfectly mod ulated voice once more bade ma a non commltal good night ? v ; .. I threw my overcoat over my arm and turned to the door.

When I called her up three days later she seemed to have forgotten that any such Incident had ever hap pened. She passed tha usual pleas antries of the day j over' tha' wire. laughed as softly and musically 'aa ever, and ended by telling me that I might call that evening.,' When I did so she received me with neither mora nor less than her customary friendli ness. : I was mystified. ; As to what was going on In the wonderland that lay behind her eyes. I had no concep tion further than the evident fact that she had not been seriously offended. And that was solace enough for tha present - Of course I Would renew tha assault-at-arms when the opportunity seemed propitious, but tor tha time being I would resort to steady siege. I "renewed my devotions. 1 As had been the case before, I again haunted her. ' Necessarily this soon became bruited around the circle of our acquaintances, and : occasionally echoes of the gossip reached my ears, 1 Biuce spoke of It once or twice qula slcally, but as I ignored his remarks he soon quit bothering ma with them. Clare, as usual, had her little say. ' . "I hear that you and Mrs. Dace are exceedingly good friends these days', and that you are with her nearly everywhere," she began sweetly. "I wish you would tell me about It" Now as a matter of fact I was secret ly proud t&Jie recognised as the ac cepted suitor of so beautiful .a worn an, and Clare was an entirely differ ent proposition from Rnim in nonfida In. Bo 1 admitted nonchalantly that we were on excellent terms., ' SUe frowned a little. ; "' 'l' "Well, I suppose, of course, that It is all right, and anyway it is none of my business. But she" is such a mysterious woman. She Uvea Ilka a duchess and everybody says her hus band left her scarcely anything.

'.'"'' :- Now I had rather expected some thing like this from Clara, but never theless the question - annoyed - ma somewhat It was the Identical one that had been making my sane mo ments a bugaboo for many nights and days past; still I hated to be remind ed of it by another person. Even now I was beginning to feel tha drain of her upoa my resources, although 1 had doneTiothlng extravagant I had taken her to the theater, pal.Tor car riages, and bought her luncheons and (lowers, but: beyond that, had doc practically nothing.

' As proof that she really preferred mr It eemed conclusive, and was the tliag that gave me tha most aopa.' How-, ever I did not speak and Clare went on: ": ' i . ' ' .! "Some of her gowns cost more tl an you earn in a month, while as 'or supporting an establishment at tha Arcadia well, of course the very 13S Is preposterous. - Now why don't yiU be sensible r I smiled, scenting what waa coming. . ' "And what is your 'idea of sanaa, Clara r I inquired. ; rl , - - ''Well, take up with a nice little girl like Mollis Osborn, for Instance. It was Just as I had suspected, for Clare and Mollla are chums and de voted in advancing each other's in terests. But the idea that any man, once" knowing Mrs. Dace as I knew her, could be content with a girl like Mollis ' struck ma as no dellciously nonsensical that I could not refrain from laughing. - "It is absurd, Clare. Certainly MoV lie is strictly all right, but aha would look like a mouse beside Mrs. Dana." She nodded spiritedly.- - "Now you are talking sense, like a nice little white mouse beside a leopardess, exactly", I did not like the comparison.
