for tho Blaze That Caused Such
Havoc Among the Baylor Beech
and Maple Trees Other Cases on
Trial During the First Day of
Common Fleas Court Large Num
ber of Men Naturalized by Judge
R. W. Archbald.
A very Interesting case was put on
trial yesterday in common pleas court,
before Judge Albright, of Lehigh
county, that promises to be fought
with great vigor. The plaintiff Is
William Eaylor, the patriarch of. Ben
ton township, and father of Attorney
W. W. Baylor, and tho defendant is
his neighbor, Lorcn G. Stephens.
Several years ago, it in alleged, Mr.
Stephens built a tiro on his land to
destroy Bome tree stumps and brush
and because it was not properly
guarded, it is alleged, the lire was
allowed to creep over on Baylor's
tract, where it destroyed a great
quantity of young beech and maplo
trees. Mr. Baylor places his loss at
$10,000.
The enso was called lato in the
afternoon, immediately after the arri
val of Judge Albright in the city. Mr.
Baylor, The plaintiff, .vns the only wit
ness heard yesterday. He is repie
scnted by Attorneys Joseph O'Brien,
C. TI. Soper, his son-in-law, and W. W.
Baylor, his son. Attorneys A. A. Vos
burg and E. C. Ncwcomb appear for
the defendant.
The three weeks' term of common
pleas court opened yesterday with
Judge John P. Kelly on the bench In
the main com t room. Tho first case
called before him was Salvador Mo
gotte against Ceorgo Welland, an Oly
phant contractor. Mogotto alleges
that ho was employed to do the stono
woik on a house nt Green Ridge, for
which Welland had the contract, but
ho has not been paid and brought suit.
He did not nllege that he was hired
directly by Welland, but claims that
the latter guaranteed hls wages. This
the defendant denies. Tie savs that
Mogotte was hired by Pnsquella Mos
quito nnd that he (Welland) never
guaranteed that ho would pay him.
Tho case went to the ury at 3 o'clock,
and a verdict had not been reported up
to adjourning hour. The plaintiff had
John 1?. Jordan ns his attorney and
tho defendant's counsel was C. S. Ol
vcr. The wage claim of Thomas F. Boyce
against William Gllhool was being
tried before Judge Kelly when court
adjourned. Boyce claims $51.S7. Hlq
attorney is E. W. Thayer and the de
fendant is represented by Attorney F.

PORTRAIT OF THE
LATE JUDGE GUNSTER
PRESENTED TO THE LACKA
WANNA BAR ASSOCIATION.
Tlio Presentation Speech Was Made
by Attorney C. Comcgys and the
Speech of Acceptance by Attorney
J. H. Torrey Remarks of Judge R,
W. Archbald The Portrait Was
Fainted by John Wlllnrd Rought
and Is Truly a Work of Art.
John Wlllard Rought's fine portrait
In oil of tho late Judge F. W. Guns'er
was yesterday morning formally pre
sented to tho Lackawanna Bar asso
ciation by tho bar.
The portrait is an cvldcnco of the
artist's perceptlveness ot character as
expressed by facial features. Although
painted from a photograph, it brings
forth tho spirit that animated the
lamented Judge, so that those who view
it recognize nnd admire the man. The
native kindness and the matured
teuson that animated the great soul
speaks from tho canvas. Brush and
pigment can do no more than this.
Tho technical skill displayed is of the
hltrhest order. There Is a roundneps,
a completeness to the woik that leaves
nothing to bo desired. No painty tricks
have been attempted. The light that
comes from tho left Is not the excuse
for a shadow to hide defects. Although
comparatively low In tone, it Is not
too low to emphasize the gentle dignity
and tho sincerity of the subject. The
beard Is a capital bit of painting, and
the Judge's characteristic flesh tone Is
reproduced to the life.
The portrait satisfies every one, nnd
particularly does it meet with tho ap
proval ot the family of the great
Jurist. The frame harmonizes with the
columns which enclose it. It has noth
ing of the gilt fol do rol in it. So
simple, so impiessive, so characteris
tic Is tho conception of tho whole that
It ntttnets Immediate attention. It Is
far the best portrait in the court room.
THE PRESENTATION.
The presentation speech as made by
Attorney C. Comcgys. who, in referring
to the dead jurist, said:
Thus wrote he himself tie record of a fruit
ful life the life of a nnnlj man, a courteous and
dignified gentleman, a brilliant nnd able mho
vate, a just and upright judge, who loved mercj,
who hated evil, and who dilly walked In tho
filth and fiar of God When the shadow of
diatli flr-.t fell upon him, reviewing such a rec
ord, lie could not lnve failed to find that conso
lation which invariably comes with the con
sciousness of a will spent life. To those who
then sorrowed about him, and to whom he was
about to leave the precious and priceless heritage
of a name without dishonor, to them with right
might he have reputed the celebrated lines of
Rome'n immortal IjtIc poet:
"I shall not wholly die. Some part.
Nor that a little, shall
Fscnpe tho dread Destrover's dart,
And his grim festival."
In this presence and before all their witnesses,
for all the members of this bar and all the mem.
hers of this bench, we now present, through Mr
Jumes 11. Torrej, their president, to the Laika.
war.na Law and Library association, the Ugal
title to this portrait, suggesting that Its nroner
keeping be tonslgned to the care of the judges
upon the bench, to be held by the association
for those now presuming it, and those who fliall
hereafter follow them, forever.
James H. Torrey, in accepting the
portrait, said:
Mr Cnairnian, Gentlemen of the Committee and
Members of the Court: It is my agreeable duty
to accept on behalf of the Lackawanna Law and
Library association this life like portrait of one
who was so long an ornament both to the bar
and bomb, of this county. It is eminently fitting
that Judge Gunster's professional biethrcn should
take this method of perpetuating his memory
and place in the temple of justice in which he
o long and worthily ministered a constant
lemlndcr of the virtues and gifts which make
that memory an inspiration to faithful service
It miv he takm not only as a spidal expres
sion of love and admiration of Judge Gunster,
but as well as a token of the uniform entiinml
of lojalty and affection bj this bar towards the
members of this bench without distinction I
cannot let this occasion pass without remarking
that the nlallons of confllence and mutui' re
spect which eharitterlzc the relations lutween
the bench and the bar are tho result of an evolu
tion which Ins male rapid strides during tho
ccnturv just (losing We are wont to Imagine
tint the veneritirn and respect with which we
think of the Ju lgcs who services marked the
fnrinitloi period of our mtiotnl Jurisprudence
wis (ijually filt by their contemporaries at Hie
bar,
jrvriHis IMPRESSION'
Ilistorv hirdly justifies th's impression; on the
contrary, it would seim as though in the earlj
dajs of tlio n public the rst Impulse of an ad
vocate upon losing a case was not as now to tik
an appeal, but to institute Impcnchmcut prccted
ings agninst the court which hid derided agalmt
him. N'o inronsidenble portion of the time of

We may be thankful that the confidence ot the
bar, and, through them, of the people, has be
come so cnflrmed as to the purencs of the motive
nd the Impartiality of the decisions of the
court that now tho most abandoned pettifogger
can hardly dare to ecuse the errors of his
opinions or the rashness of Ids advice by Insinua
tions of corruption or bias In the court.
To place the court upon no high a pedestal of
confidence and respect compels the virtues which
It assumes so that even If one lacking In Judicial
temper should by chance be vested with tho er
mine lie would find himself In a manner covered
bj the power of public opinion to be what the
public consider him.
WEItfi SIISmVIN'GS.
Th experiment of an elective Judiciary was
tried with many misgivings on the pirt of con
servative minds as to tho probable results, When
It was seen how often rlrrtlvc ofllces were,
through Indifference or partisan Impulse, un
worthily filled, It was feared that the Judiciary
might become the prlre of self seeking Incompe
tency or the reward of debasing political activity
It Is only fair to say that the result has In few
cases Justified the fear. However Indifferent and
blind the people may be In the filling of other
offices, In rverjthlng which closely affects the
pure administration of Justice they have uniform
ly shown themselves, cautious, discriminating
and Jealous, in fact, the came spirit obtains In
the filling of all ofllces which directly concern the
administration of justice as has recently been
most forcibly Illustrated among us
It Is unnecessarj- for me to enlarge upon the
gifts and virtues of the original of this portrait.
His eulogy has been fittingly and feelingly pro
nounced both here nnd elsewhere. The ripe fruit
of his labors Is perpetuated In the files of tho
court and the books of report The sentiments
of his professional brethren have found eirly
expression and are engrossed upon the records
of the court, and his memory is enshrined in all
our hearts.
Judge Archbald, in closing tho exer
cises, spoke as follows:
It is with a sad satisfaction that we see this
picture of our late Judge Gunstrr hung upon
our walls Here was his last work In tills com
munltj, although he fllleel many honorable posi
tlons in it. and by that work he will be best
remembered and known But memory Is so
trrnihrrous and so fleeting that which a mm
has been so passes out of the remrmbrance of all
tint It Is most flttln; In everv wav possible to
keep him in remembrance And no better way
can there be than bv a life-like picture such as
this Is that will call him constantly up, and as
we seo the familiar features here present with us
we ran recall the many things that we remember
so pleasintly of him Let It have a place, then,
here on our walls and In our memory perpetuate
the record of an able. Just aud upright judge

ough treasury. The alderman ngrecd
with Attorney George M. Watson, who
appeared for the defense, that the
prosecution had failed to make a case.
The defendants were John Bentham,
president of the council; Councllmen
Henry Hagar and Henry Cringle,
Street Commissioner Jarob Miller and
Isaac Dawe, clerk of the council.
They were charged with conspiracy to
defraud the borough out of $170 by
drawing fictitious ordeis on the treas
urer, aggregating that omoutit.
The Hist witness examined yester
day was Trank Zalecsgl, who testi
fied that Bentham met him and asked
him to cash one of tho ordets which
he (Bentham gave him. It was for
$39 and was drawn for Anthony Peu
sek. Znleeskl said he got the order
rnshed and that Bentham gave him
$5 for his trouble.
Theodore Welland, the tax collector,
testified that he had cashed this or
der, hut could not positively swear
that ho had cashed the others.
Attorney James H. Torrey, who rep
resented the piosecutor, stated that
he withdiew the case against Coun
cilman Cringle as the testimony
showed that ho had nothing to do
with the transaction.
He nsked. howeevr, that the other
fou- defendants be hi hi In bail for
their appearance in court.
Aituini-y Watson, In ri-pty, said that
the pay roll was presented to council
bj' the street commissioner, nnd hav
ing been passed by that body, it was
the duty of the preside nt and secre
tary to diavv tho orders for It. Tf
anyone was to blame It was the street
commissioner, nnd no one else. The
fact that Bentham had helped draw
up the pay roll proved nothing, he
said.
The aldeiman said the evidenca In
his opinion wns not sufficient to war
rant him sending the cases to court
and ho announced the discharge of the
defendants.
"I'm s'oij- much surprised at that."
said Mi. Torrey, who looked veiy
wrnthy.
"It's not the fltst, nnd it's not tho
lat time you'll be .sutptlsed," replied
tho alderman.
