A (3Rtri►r or Evidence. ' This man, your honor,'sidd a law- yer who was prosecuting a 'Texas gen- tlenlan, for stealing ri horse ;. this man not only stole a• horse, but we propose to prove,tbat he slid. Ile has a precli• lection for that sort of business, and be fore I have acme I' shall have woven abbot. him a chain. •of evidence• from. wliioh there an be no escape, , Listen In the first place,, ' g i•I-t' is written. upon hist brown,.. Inthe second place, he was born at Hoarsehead, Mass. ; not Marblehead, it your honor please, but Iforsehead. At the age of five years he ,got a horse ehestnnt fast in his mouth, and the, physician who was called in said it was out of his 'business, and •1•e, e.owmended a dentist who knocked out 'seven of. the boy's teeth' before the chestnut coulhl.. be reeov,ered. I would like to call the attention of this very intelligent jury: to 'tlie fact that. this. was not ulordinary chestnut, btt a horse -chestnut ''horse, horse, horse•chest,. nut; And remember, too, if you.please 1. with "what tenacity he clung to, it !I When u anere boy, such was his•inerdi- .nate desire for horses, that his . mother could not keep any 'horse radish about' the house. Why? Because he would steal it. If his mother undertook to raises it in the ;arc U he Would steal, it before 'it -wtts'half g-royen-while it was a mere dolt or ' filly,. soto; speak. At the ago of ten he' stole -a.saw horse, but afterwards returned it when hediscover- ed, ashe said, that it nicked in .single liattJess, and baulked under, the saddle. It was his couscienee.'that kinked and baulked. At the age- of fourteen -be was apprenticed to .a nurse In a.:hospital. ,See the awful fatality? Hospital ;hos- pital ; horsepital; 1t-o4-s4e horse ; horsepital. The wonder is that he didn't steal. A few years later he tried to lead oft' a horse pistol by the muzzle and was 'shot in the hand: Ton see the horse pistol had' sense enough ta kick.. When he was arrested' for the crime for which. he'is lice, being tried, what do you suppose was found on his: person? Why, gentlemen-of:tlie' jury,. a llottle.of Hoetetter''s bitters ! Will y please lease note the 'kinof` 'bitters ,, d.,• .Hostetter's stomaob, 'bitters. Il -o -r ' 'Shut. up,'' yelled the Ridge.; ' this is. not a spelling •bee.'

When the child was about one year olds its mother died. About five months later, the,young widower became lonely, and took Seto himself another,} wife.

They saw a wonderful light in the house. as though it mighthe fire. They also heard the cries of the babe as though in great pain. They went to the house, and as soon as they readied the door the light went out, ,and all Wits .as silent as the grave without. They hastened. on to the house where the party was, and told the man •what they had.seen and heard in his house as they came by. Vivo or six men, including the owner of the house, started to investigate the re- port. When they arrived --they found every- door and window fast ae they were when the owner reit. ' On going inside overythiug was fewnd'to be in its place except the chilli,. which, after..a long search, was found -up stair's under the bed 'on which its mother' died, cover-' ed up with its mother's wedding shawl, and its little head testing on the inflow its 'mother "made `for. it,, sound asleep. it laye Aloti}lslde of its 1 ilii playthings.
