Her evidence was not shaken in the least by 'cross-exa,mination. Mrs George Emboden, another daughter of the prisoner, was the next witness. She testified that she had arrived at her father's house after ten o'cleck on the day of the death of Sophy. She denied the assertion that therehad been dirt scattered over one of the pools of blood. She testified that her father never had a gun or pistol, and that he was always affectionate to Sophy. overcoat, and inede a rush for his. wefts and , THE pISTOL ACC017NTED FOR. Thomas Handcock, second eldest son, next testified. He corroborated the testi- .mony of the former witnesses. He said he took a pistol there on Monday, after the accident, and that is the one Detective Greer found. He took the revolver there to guard the premises. Henry Handeock, another son, went over 'the same ground as the others had done. Wm. Wilcox testified to his havingsecured Dr. Harlington to attend to Sophy, andthat he loaned his brother-in-law the revolver he used while guarding the holm. Mrs. Henry Handcock and Miss Polly Handcock also testified in favor of • the defence. Philip Hancleock,.a brother of the de- ceased, said she had a purse, which she used to car-ry.

Indeed, Mr. Jones' desk and that of the lawyer's were within'ten feet. of each other, and if the wall that separated them hadn't been so thick, and if the ,lawyer hadn't been so dignified, he might, himself, by shouting, have informed Mr, Jones that he wanted to see him. Now, it wouldn't have taken John more than a quarter of a minute to go to Mr. Jones' office and the journey would not have fatigued him. .But the office telephone was still nearer. So John called up and had the central give him Mr. Jones' office, and when he got Mr. Jones' office Mr. Jones happened to answer the call, and John told Mr. Jones that Mr. Robinson, the lawyer, wished to see him. "What Mr. Robinson?" asked Mr. Jones. The next door Mr. Robinson," answered John. " Oh," said Mr. Jones ; " all right." He went into Mr. Robinson's office.

Dr. Mciretlane, called .by the Crown in rebuttal, said he' had examined the Skull, and he did not think it possible that a bul- let could have made the wound. The wound was produced by a hard, solid substance, as if something, swung from the hand with a handle, had crashed down on the skull. HisJeordship—I understand the Crown does not consider it material how the blow was' struck. To Mr. Murdoch .witness said he could not account fot the patticles of lead found in the wound. Dr. Adam Wright did not think the wound could have been .caused by 'a pistol allot. The fracture could only have been done by an instrument of weight, evidently swung in the hand. • .This finished the evidence. ' Mr. Murdoch renewed his application that the case- be not allowed to go to the jury, but the judge ruled otherwise. " Nonsense.

It int). beautiful dance when properly done and a Most , miserable failure when it isn't." "How are you going to better things ?" "Let the teachers give their attention to the music. The music contains the instruc- tion." "What are the changes of the Oxford minuet ?" 'The first is slow and stately like the court minuet, so far as movement goes, It is, though played in schottische time. not as quick as the Alsatian nor yet as slots as the vesuviana. It is one of the prettiest of dances, something like the old Mediter- ranean." "What other new dances are there this season ?" "The Spanish York, which has the same time as the redowa. There are dozens of others, but they are hardly worth talking about.. The waltz minuet is one of the pret- tiest dances ever introduced, if properly, taught. Of nour§e round dances are crowd- ing the square dances out. Novelties in squares must be introduced in order to re- • tain them at all in the cities. For instance, dances that used to be square are now diagonally or on corners. To make it plain, the old change, "First four right and left with 'opposite copuple," they now cross to the corner—the side couple taking the place the head couple used to occupy and repeat- ing to the right. Of course in Country towns the square dances are square still ; the Saratoga lancers, minuet lancers and college lancers remain the same. "The New York lancers, now in it a sec- ond season, remains in favor. The changes are very simple. .They run: Head couples lead to the right, join hands, circle four, back to place ; right and left to the opposite I side, balance, turn corner and beck to place. • The fourth figure is: Head couples forward, _ address, take opposite lady and go to th side, address ; head couples to place. then right and left to the right • "Dancing is certainly on the increase. Nearly all the invitations to receptions now include dancing,' and there are so many social clubs forming for dancing that it in almost indistiensible to one's accomplish- ments. • "Since the formation of the association, there uniforinity in dances. At one time if a New Yorker went to a Philadele, phia ball he would find many of the changes Greek to him. It isn't so now. Chicago has adopted the New York Association, rules, so has St. Louis and New Orleans,, all owing to the fact that most of the cities have one of the representatives of the asso- ciations and have introduced the dances and teach them after their ndoptionby the execti- tive board of the association. The dances in vogue at the Charity ball in New York will be found at the Mardi Gras in New Orleans. The Patriarchs' ball in New York gives the same dances and changes that you will find at Momus and Proteus during the week's revelry in the Crescent City. "Dancing is not only an accomplishment, ' but it keeps the old. feeling young. It makes the young graceful, and it is the open sesame now to all social gatheringe. I, do not mean by that that a dancer with no • other accomplishment will find himself well received, but I do say that a young.man who cannot dance often finds himself like the gentleman who comes in on the lovers, de trop. Shrine ball will be a grand affair. I have eight or ten couples whe will be per- fect in th,e round dances and.in the squares, too, for the occasion. If • the Oxford.. minuet be on the programme you will see these couples right together, and I venture to say finer dancing has not been seen in Music Hall." THE JUDGE S CHARGE'. After midi:eases of counsel , the judge delivered his charge. The following are the salient points to which he directed then- careful and earnest considera- ttoe : At the outset • he told them that the evidence in the case was purely ciretineetantial and it wits a very difficult one. They must find that the facts were consistent with the guilt of the prisoner and inconsistent with any other theory. Th was no uestion that the girl was ere q murdered, but the simple question was, Who did it? It woald be ' danger- ous r- to conclude that the stories told by the prisoner differed, as ' it must be borne in mind that the repetition of those to whom he spoke might be faulty. They must be satiefied with some theory in order to , convict the 'prisoner. The evidence , as to the finding ' of lead had been incontrovertible by witeresees for the Crown. It was almost ab- surd to • suppose that if the wound had been i ictect by a leaden instrument it would h e left the same lead impacted ,,in the skull. It looked like a bullet, and it would be unsafe, it would be dangerous to convict the prisoner unless they Could. reconcile the act evith the father's guilt. Unless you can find, that the wound wae inflicted by a pistol iu the hands of the prisoner, said his Lord- ship, you'sliould not find him guilty.
