ed by Drought—Sharp Colloquy
Between Counsel W Followed hy
the Grant of an Order Declaring a
Mistrial—Spicy Evidence and Spicy
t imiments Judge Twlitgn Made
One of His Characteristic Speech
es—The -Dear Sweetheart" Fetter.
An inadvertent expression of opinion up
on the truth of the matters of fact given
in evidence to the jury, in the trial of the
case of A. E. Drought against Mrs. Anna
C. Wood bridge, made by Judge Twiggs in
the course of his argument for the plain
tiff, brought the trial to an unexpected ter
mination.
When court ctonvened yesterday morning
the introduction of evidence on behalf of
the defendant, to rebut th3t given by the
witnesses for Ihe plaintiff, was continued.
Mrs. Woodbridge was again placed on the
stand and answered the questions of coun
sel with the perfect confidence, assurance
ar.d aplomb that ehe had exhibited when
previously interrogated. It was impossi
ble for counsel to rattle or confuse her
or to cause her to make any material va
riation in the statements she had already
given from the stand.
Mrs. Woodbridge testified at some length
ee to the intimacy she said existed be
tween the plaintiff and James Harris, her
son, by a marriage prior to that with Mr.
Woodbridge. She stated that the Influence
that Drought had exercised over this boy,
who was evidently wayward and inclined
to be worse, was an evil one and that the
plaintiff was responsible for many of the
errors in life and character that Harris
had been guilty of since the acquaintance
began and had time to ripen. Drought
had encouraged young Harris to rebel
against his mother's lawful authority, she
testified, and enticed him away from her
home when she was endeavoring to en
force respect for her wishes and herself
from this prodigal son.
When the defendant closed Drought
was placed on the stand to deny these
statements, anth he did deny -them, in toto
and with much indignant emphasis.
When the boy had left hts mother's house,
said the witness, he had received him un
der his roof and had looked after and
protected him. Because of the intimacy
that existed between Mrs. Woodbrige and
himself, said Drought, he was unwilling
to have her son suffer or want. He had
endeavored to make up the quarrel that
was In progress between mother and son,
bu't had failed. He had never encouraged
the boy in disobedience or viciousness,
but on the contrary had done what was
possible to amend his character and
bahils of life.
Judge Twiggs began his opening re
marks to the jury at about 12:30 o'clock,
announcing that Mr. Oliver would con
clude for the plaintiff and would make
the longer argument. Judge Twiggs an
nounced that he would content himself
with calling the attention of the jury
to a Jew salient and prominent facts in
the case. “Stubborn things," said the
judge, “the importance of which cannot
be gainsaid.”
Everybody who has ever seen Judge
Twiggs in the act of making a speech
knows what vitriolic scorn, indignation
and contempt he Is capable of conveying
by his voice, gestures and expression.
When he was making this argument to
the jury every one of these declamatory
assistants was brought to bear and the
result was an effort that carried the jury
from smiling appreciation to almost con
vulsive mirth.
“Think of it, gentlemen of the jury,” he
exclaimed, referring to what the defend
ant had had to say about Drought and his
alleged evil influence over her boy. “She
has'called this man almost everything that
is mean and vile. She virtually accuses
him of forgery, perjury and larceny. She
says that he responsible for the evil
courses her son has fallen into and for
the evil traits of character he has develop
ed. She charges the plaintiff with ruining
the character and blasting the life of her
boy.
“Why. gentlemen, if you believe her
testimony, the m-an who is asking justice
at your hands is the meanest and lowest
of his sex. If her evidence is credible,
here is a man who would break open the
humblest and meanest cottage in the land
and steal the tawdry bric-a-brac from the
shelves. And. if her evidence be true, he
has wronged her in the cruellest fashion
that a mother's hart can know. He has
ruined her boy.
“And yet, gentlemen of the jury, listen
to this.” Here Judge Twiggs picked out
one of the many letters from defendant to
plaintiff that had been offered in evidence
and flourished it in the faces of the jury.
“Listen to this,” he repeated, and began
to read.
The letter was one written by Mrs.
Woodbridge to Drought In the early part
of 18S9, a considerable length of time after
the occurrence® upon which she baaed her
statement that Drought’s evil Influence
had corrupted the character of her son.
The letter began “Dear Sweetheart,” and
wag signed, “With half a barrel of con
tracts, Big Boss."
“Listen to that, gentlemen.” said Judge
Twiggs, in raspingly sarcastic tones.
* Here is a man who lias wronged a
mother’s heart in its tenderest point. A
mother never lose* her love for her boy.
If he ts wayward, why she but loves him
the more; if he is unfortunate she takes
him closer to her breast; If he is prodi
gal, she kills for him the fatted calf. t
* This man has destroyed the character
of the son of this good lady. He has
taught him vice and inculcated in his
young mind the seeds of evil, destroyed
every good instinct that blossomed in his
breast an& torn him from his mother's
Influence and protection, And yet that
mother write® to this destroyer of her
eon’s good name and her own happiness
and tails him ‘Dear Sweetheart,’ sends
him ‘half a barrel of contracts’ and signs
herself 'Big Boa*.’
Judge Twiggs proceeded in this vein
until he struck the question of the re
ceipt that had been offered in evidence
by Mrs. Woodbridge and that purported
to be signed by Drought. He had discuss
ed thia at some length and Anally said:
“I don’t believe that thia alleged re
ceipt waa ever aigned by thia plaintiff.
I ’’
"Counsel has made a statement that is
manifestly Improper,’’ interjected Mr.
1 eaken at this point, "and I move the
court to declare a mistrial.”
“Take the order. Mr. Leaken,” said
Judge Norwood. The order was written
end sian*d, and the mistrial declared.
This the cajge which has aroused so
much interest and been productive of so
much spicy testimony, came to an end.

THICKS OF RESTAURANTS.
Tlie Artful Diner ala Carte Knows

From tho New Orleans Times-Demoerat.
"I know a dear old boy,” said a man
about town, “who ihe last twenty
year* or more has eaten at restaurant*
of—well, say the upper middle class—l
mean the best grade under the swel s.
Naturally he ha* picked up a lot of craf
ty tricks, and it is very amusing to take
a mra 1 In his company. The last time I
did so, he s udied the bill for a moment
and then said suddenly: ‘Walter, what
kind of fish was It that jou ran cut of
last nght?' ‘Tenderloin of Trout.' repled
the gatcon, looking surprized. 'Then bring
me *om*,' said my friend. ‘lt’s certain to
he fresh,' he explained in an undertone;
■flab that are left over are always work
ed off first.’
“On another occasion he was ordering a
beefsteak and was very particular to r- 11
waiter to bring him some ‘half-Jullnne'
potatoes. 'Half Juil< fine,' If you are not
up in r staurant lingo. mtans a slic'd p -

'French-fried 'You see. the half cut Is
very acldom ordered,’ he raid, when 1 a'k

obliged to prepare my p irtlon fresh The
other slzea, on the contrary, arc called

don’t like my potat .es half <o!d ’
"Of course the restaurants have trick*
of thrir own. but It Is hard to fool the o and

ticular season GRAYBEARD PILLS are indispensable. They will remove gll

skin outbreaks are prevailing While you may expect no permanent relief
from deep-seated blood troubles, short of GRAYBEARD, there are miner
troubles which ihe Ointment will relieve speedily. It ii one of th# hsndleat
. lltlle boxes of medicine a family ever had In the house.
Letter From Tennessee.
Dear Friends: I have been suffering t wenty-three years with an ulcor on my
ankle. Sometimes In bed—sometimes on crutches. I used remedies of my own, and
falling to muke a cure, I called In dlff-rent phyaloina*. They all said that Ihtqr
could cure me. but found it to be of a stubborn nature and failed.
I saw GRAYBEARD advertised and I bought
* 4 bottles of It—
-2 boxes of the pi I la—
-1 box of ihe ointment.
It cured me well. And I have one bottle left
I auAlhal I am well—not near.y well—but entirely Well. It has been over twaive
months Ml no symptoms have returned.
I hope the suffering will do aa I have; use it. have faith in It and be cured.

Letter From Texas.
Ballinger, Tex.. Jan. 39.
"I thought I would write you what your wonderful Graybeard has don* far
me. I had Catarrh of the head about 3$ years, and suffered a great deal I hav#
tried many kinds of medicine* and have been treated by doctor*, though all of
them failed to cute me. And I being so old and my disease so chronic, I didn't think
there was any medicine that would cuts me. But more >han two year* ago I had
very plain symptom* of Cancer on my nose and face and decided to try Graybeard,
not thinking that it would cure my Catarrh as well as Cancer. I bought I bottles
from Mr. Pierce, and lee- than 9 cured me This has been more than two years aa*
now and no symptoms of the old disease* have appeared. I can praise Graybeard
for what it has done for me. Perrons need never think they are too old for Gray
beard to cure them. I am now 75. MRS. RHODA DEAN.”
Clip thi* and keep it before you— b-eause It may be valuable to you soma day,
It la failure to purify Ihe blood lhat
produces the worst forms of Rheumatism.
It ts neglect to cltspse the blool that
starts Csnceg; All chronic diseases orgt
nate In impure blood and If neglected will
pass down from sire to son.
It Is good policy. wl*c nd right, to toks
core of our health. We believe strongly
the more we see of people and their v*rl
ou* diseases, that It Is fur easier to pre
vent ailments than to cur# them.
Keep track of youreelf.
When you ache, leke GRAYBEARD.
When you can’t eat, take GRAYBEARD
When you feel warn oul, lake GRAY
BEAHD,
When you are out of humor, tek* GRAY
BEARD.
