A llvftlab it' The hoe stealing case, over which Normal so badly agitated, was called before Ferre Yesterday afternoon, hut as Mis. Kerre is quite III, tbe case was by consent tried before 'Squire llendryx, and Mr. Ferre excused, lion.

A. E. Stevenson and Hubert McCatt appeared for the defense, and Joseph V. Fifer for the People. The grounds for the complain, stated by Mr.

Fifer, are alioiU follows For tome time the C. A A. lilt, lave missed a number of hog from tl.tlr liaius between Ulooiiiingtou and Chicago. The cirs were opened sometimes between here and Towauda, or Lexington, Chenoa, or 1'ouliaC and between here and points further up the road. On watching the en, the Spragtie boys and Morehttid were seen "mousing" about the cars, but were never seen around trains where there were no cars of stock In them.

Sprague was particularly noticed around Ihe trains. L'etw ecu here and Ia-x- Ington brakes had been set on the trams to slack their speed, and when the ears eie examined at the next station on trains so tatu- ktoi1, without exception it was loiind that stock was missing. Sprague and his companions in trouble had also been found selling hogs lo butchers, soapmakers and Ihe pork house, which was badly bruised on various parts of the body, as If Ihe animals had fallen from the cars while In motion, and he further slated that the Iiol's so sold by the Sprau'iies had been iden-till' by the shippers as the out which lilt had placed upon th" cars of the C. A A. road.

Mr. McCart contended that Ibis did not make case against the defendants, even If all the suppositions of Mr. Filer were true, but they were not. He said the Sprague cou'd prove that every annual winch they sol I was purchased in an honest manner. Mr.

Adams, conductor of the C. A swore in substance to these facts: February first lie ran a train from Itloomlngton to Chlcvjo in which was one car of hogs, hilled from Atlanta as containing 70 animals. The car was new, and when it left here was property fasiened. He always looked at stock cars at each station to seee if they were fastened. The first full stop was made at Chenoa, where he found the door of the car wide open.

He counted the hogs and found only 04 bogs could not count more. William Pake, of Atlanta, swore he shipped a fur of hogs, containing (Id animals, at Atlanta that when it arrived iu Chicago Ibeie were only 0t. It was so reported to him by the C. A A. Company.

Mr. F'inigati, yard master of the Union Stock Yard, swore he counted the animals in this car, and it contained only 00 hogs, and one dead. Mr. Turner, of Atlanta, proved in the same manner the loss of 8 bogs In March. Mr.

Hall, of Delavan, a loss of hogs. He had frequently lost one hog at a time, but gave tbe company the benefit of the doubt thinking it might have been a miscount. It finally became so frequent he could not stand It, and he claimed damages for the loss. Mr. Harney, Williams-ville, proved a loss of four hogs in February.

Ed. Worth, of Carlinville, proved that he lost three hogs, as did a number of others. In each cae tbe car left this city fastened properly, but was found open at the first stop north. Mr. iteorge smart, conductor, swore, in substance, that he had been called upon by the C.

A A. to act as detective to watch the stock trains as they left' Illoomington, and from the 7th to the of March every stock car. left here properly fastened. He had seen Ezra Sprague around the depot with three others whom he did not recognize, out did him as he passed a headlight. Had seen him get on the caboose just as a train pulled out of the station.

All stock trains go north between 5 and 12 p. most of them at about 8 or ti o'clock. He had seen the Spragues walking along the cars. Did not seem to have any busi ness there, i he nignts were uarK ana rainy. Did not see them do anything suspicious or try to avoid being seen.

He also saw Morelaud and Will Sprague acting in about the same manner. Charles Christy, ho was empowered to watch the cars in the same manner as Stuart, saw Ezra Sprague and the others walking along the side of stock trains, and saw them mount the caboose as the trains pulled out. He had seen them a number of times hanging around the stock trains. He could not swear that there was any thing suspicious in their movements or that they avoided observation. The case by this time had been carried on till 9 p.

when the court adjourned till 9 o'clock this morning. The Long; and Short of It. The Pa.ntagraph desires In short to shortly say to Short that it will be long indeed until it desires to treat Short with shortness. Having known Short but a short time, we long to know him longer as we shortly hope to do. The short and the long of it is that the longer we know Short tbe less short do we long to treat Short.

May Short never be short and short he happen to be short, may he not be long short. Long or short the short and the long of it is that the Pantaohaph does not long to short Short oil' in any short manner, and short Mr. Short shortly rent a new shop, the Pantagraph will make short woik of shortly shorter giving Short a long short.

Is it possible to conceive of a more degraded and lothesoine thought I although the clever chanic clothes his language in seemingly indifferent words. It shows a mind utterly Incapable of elevating itself above utteiing the most vile and indecent invectives. His Incentives to good have long since been shipwrecked on the shoals of perdition, where their emanator" will eventually follow, unless bv some powerful intervention of Providence he Is burled in some other abyss from hence no resurrection will ever unearth him.

The above is an average paragraph from the LiiuU taken at landom from the columns of yesterday's edition. It is a tissue of inaccuracies from stem to stern post, "from turret to foundation stone." It violates every rule of grammar and rhetoric, outrages the parts of speech and breaks the ten commandments of syntax. Does the writer mean "loathsome?" "What has "the clever mechanic's clothing of his language" to do with "the possibility of the conception How can "language" be clothed with words being the material of which language is made up, and, In the given case, existing before the language is created To hat does the "it" iu the second sentence refer? Is "codlUh" an invective If so, how long has it been, and when did the fish become "vile" and "indecent To whom does the "llis" in the third sentence refer "Incentives to good" being the gift of Heaven, no 'matter how sorely they may be abused, how is it possible that they could be "shipwrecked on tbe shoals of perdition What system of theology or philosophy permits the burling of "incentives to good" "ou shoals. of perdition is "shoals of perdition'' the correlative of "other abyss Is not "shoal" the opposite of "abyss An "abyss" bxing a hottomlnvi pit, how is it possible that by any conceivable method of 'resurrection" the process of "uMurthin'f could take place "From whence" is a redundancy as unpardonable as "fuueral obsequies."
