WISH ART KOT TRIED FOR PERJURY
After Some Lively Evidence, a Non-Snlt
Ordered, wlib a Question of Cost Open
lug of tho Dlnrch Term.
One of the flattest of the flat cases, was that
of Juryman Edgar against M.W. Wishart for
perjury, which came up beforo Judge White
yesterday. Messrs. Marshall & Rcbman ap
peared for the defense, and Robb & Moore for
the prosecution.
Atone time affairs looked rather blue for
tho defense, when W. D. Moore made his little
statement to the jury, in which be explained
that the famous affidavit of Wishart was, from
their standpoint, willful and corrupt perjury.
After some delay, this affidavit, urging alleged
misconduct on the part of Edgar and one
other juryman at the time S3 indictments had
been ignored and the costs placed on Wishart.
Tho prosecution then placed Attorney
William Yost on the stand and from that mo
ment the tide of affairs turned. Yost said in
December, 1ES7, he bad dictated the affidavit to
Captain Wishart who wrote it and it was
sworn to according to his rule.
When the time came to introduce the affi
davit as evidence Marshall at once objected
on the grounds that it was a voluntary affidavit,
made with no specific purpose, and hence tbis
removed the taint of perjury. A lively shuffle
then ensued, in which everybody figured, and
Jndee White came out on top with his decision
as follows:
"1 believe Yost's statement is correct, and I
sustain Marshall's objection. I remember the
caso very well, and 1 remember the affidavit
was read at my request, and Yost did not want
to read it as it was irrelevant, but he complied
with my request.
Moore The rule of the court to admit it as
evidence was absolute, and Wishart cannot es
cape the consequences of impeaching a grand
jury.
Judge White repeated that the objection Is
sustained.
Moore That ends our case.
Judge White explained that the jury had the
privilego ot placing the cost on either party
they thought just, as enough had been shown
to justify a suit being brought. The jury was
out when the court adjourned. The case is
another victory for the Law and Order Society.
The libel suit in connection with the same case
will come up to-day.

Judso Slagee More Than Hint at Certain
Privilege Enjoyed by Gamblers.
The March term of the Criminal Court was
opened yesterday morning by Judges Magee
and White. The grand jury for the term was
called up to receive the judges' charger which
was delivered by Judge Magee. He explained
the duties of the grand jury and bow they
should be performed. He added:
"The community has been often startled by
the frequency of homicides, the reason of it
being that there are many houses kept and
maintained tn violation of law. We hear on
all sides that there are gambling houses en-
gaged in selling liquor without license and
ept open in violation of law. The proprietors
of such places deserve punishment, and you
have promised that such cases shall receive
your attention."
Continuing, the judge told the jury that tbey
have power to originate charges, and intimated
that too many privileges are accorded the
sporting fraternity. He also read the act of
assembly governing constables'.retuins, so that
no excuse can hereafter be offered by con
stables that they did not know the law. The
grand jury then retired and commenced on the
work before It. The following was the result
of its first day's work:
True bills David Curry, assault and battery;
Charles Huff, keeping a disorderly house, sell
ing liquor without license, and on Sunday;
Kate Foley, entering a building with intent to

Prisoner and Conrt Agree With Regard to
Some Aldermanlc Cases.
During the progress of the alleged Wishart
perjury case, some amusement was caused by
the remarks of Judge White, and a prisoner
who was brought up for sentence.
Ballait, a meek and mild-mannered man, was
brought in for sentence. He had been found
guilty of carrying a deadly weapon, and Judge
White, in imposing a fine of $5 and costs, said
be bad made it light, but had imposed a fine
because Ballait had not acknowledged carrying
a weapon.
Ballait Your Honor, may I make I state
ment! Judge White (surprised, but smiling) Why,
yes, certainly.
Ballait I did not care to tell the Alderman
whether I carried a weapon or not; Nowadays,
when a man is brought np before a Justice, it
doesn't make any difference if he's guilty or
cot; he is fined or held for court.
Judge White (amidst a general laugh)
There's a great deal of truth in that.
Ballait departed satisfied that he had Mass
worth.
EVERYBODY HAPPY.

Classical Oakmont Evolved From the Sec

The question that has been agitating the resL

day. A decree of court was made creating the
borough of Oakmont out of what was formerly
the Second ward of Verona, and fixing the
limits of the borough. This is a victory for the
jacuon wno wamea tne new oorougn called
Hulton. Tuesday, March 12, was fixed for the
holding of an election for officers of the new
borough.
A decree was also made fixing the limits of
Verona borough, which has taken a large piece
from Penn township. The report of S. H.
Shannon, who was appointed auditor to report
on the division of the assets and liabilities of
the old borough" of Verona, between Oakmont
and Verona, was approved. Oakmont, or what
was tho Second ward of Verona, is to receive
4L4S per cent of the assets and bear the same
proportion of the liabilities. Verona, or the
old First ward, gets 6S.52 per cent for its share.
The auditor's fee was fixed at $500.

tongue had a yellow coating. He had a pressure
and pain over the eyes. He lost all ambition

do any work. One doctor said he had cancer of
the stomach. After trying 11 doctors all to no
purpose, he began treatment with .the physi

The above table shows what can bo accomplished by anyone disposed to lay aside asmall por
tion of their weekly receipts, and depositing the same in some well-manaced Savings Bank.
ETery man who is obliged to work for his living should make a point to lay up money for
that "rainy day" which we are all likely to encounter when least expected. Unquestionably the
best way to provide for tbis emergency is to open an account with.a good,Hve SavingsBank.
Accumulated money, thus cared for, is safe. Is rapidly increasing, is always roady to use
when needed, and is free from the many uncertainties and fatalities of life.
Strive at once to get together flvo dollars, or even one dollar, and make your first deposit.
Then resolve to add to it as often as yon can, even though the amount be small. . ,
Yon will be surprised with the magic comfort and strength of this course. Nobody knows,
witbout having tried It, how easy a thing it is. without being miserly or stingy, to sava money,
when once an account with a bank has been opened.
A man then feels a new.ambitlon and a constant desire to enlarge his deposit. It gives bim
pleasant lessons In frugality and econoray.wcaus him from the habits of extravagance, and is the
verv best guard in the world against intemperance, dissipation and vice.
If you are not alrcadv a depositor, and have no special bank in view, permit us to suggest
that you at once try a deposit with the ' . .

JAMES E. MORRIS, sol( agent, New York.
Dear Sir I cannot say too much for Pratt's
Aromatic Geneva Gin, as I was a great sufferer
for five years with my kidneys. Tried all of tho
kidney medicines and two doctors without be
ing cured. I was part of the time on my bed
and could not get up, or even turn myself over;
I bought one-half dozen bottles of yonr gin,
and beforo finishing them was well; but fearful
that it was not a permanent cure, I used an
other half-dozen, and am now perfectly well.
Very respectfully, M. L. BYINGTON. ,

"developed and tested by hundreds
of gas wells, demonstrating beyond
all doubt that the gas supplyis in-
;exhaustible, and its quality for fuel
and illumination unsurpassed. The
gas wells now in use at Portland
-have an output of over 15,000,000
cubic feet daily, and this supply
may be increased ad infinitum.

I have made ike survey and plat of the land' comprised

Indiana, and'hereby certify that there is not a lot in said sub
division that is not suitable for building purposes and suscep
tible of good drainage. The subdivision adjoins the corpora
tion line of the city. Meridian street, which passes through
the property, is the principal street of the city and the main
thoroughfare off he. county leading into the city. Sixteenth
street is also an important highway.
