WOOL MANDTAllOnED 'J X The State Arboretum and Tree Planting at the Capital V', ''-. !? . Last Week. ' Crittenden Co., was well rep resented at the State arboretum nd tree planting at the Capitol jrounds last week, by three trees if the variety chosen, Sycamore Hud Judge Blue, who was pres ent to see the job well done, reports that all three were planted. As previously noted in these columns, the trees were donated by John W. Wilson, and were selected and the shipping superintended by J. F. Dodge, who is not a novice in the culture of trees and flowers; William H. Wallace lent his friendly aid also by helping to dig the. trees. These gentlemen did what they did gratuitously and the trees should be named John, William and Frank in their honor, to insure them living and doing well. PIGS m CHICKENS. "Keep out of my back yard," Said the chicken to the pig, "You'd better read the Ordinance Before you start to dig. ' ' "Don't YOU crow over ME," Said the piggy to the hen, "Keep off from my side walk, VTou measley old 'has-been'! " Then and there a fight began, A grunt and then a crow. Ponllv n tt Officer Loyd, do your duty. Arrest that Suffragette, She has'nt any vote you know Nor has she time to set. So there is where a feud Ijiegan All on account of chickens, They can't come on my sidewalk Or you'll catch the Dickens. The city council then assembled And heard a lot of law, Read Blackstone on tresspasses And then began to jaw. Some were for and some against Keepin chickens in the barn: After a while they compromised Upon the following terms. "Whereas all pigs and chickens, That are found upon the street, Will be promptly barbecued, And the council then will eat." This is where our chickens go, As well as our fat shoats, It's law, of course, but then, The peoule are the goats. The author of the above has been a frequent contributor to our columns, but has, perhaps, never before, contributed anything that would rank as a classic. His literary standing is now fully established. -Ed. Items From Providence Enterprise. Mr. Albert Lamb, of Clay, was in the city Wednesday.

Fleming Gordon Presiding. A Full Docket. Commonwealth, Attorney Grayot Present. Promptly at 9;30 Monday morning Judge Gordon opened the last term of Circuit Court for There were in Commonwealth John L. Grayot, the Crittenden the vear 1912. attendance, the Attorney, Mr. the County At- torney, Mr. Jnu. A. Moore the Cir cuit Court Clerk, Mr. John G. Asher, the Sheriff. J. A. C. Pickens and his deputies J. T. Pickens and D. E. Gilliland and the following members, of the Crittenden County bar: Senator-elect Ollie M. James, County Judge John W. Blue, Messrs James A. Moore, L. H. James, Virgil Moore, Mr. Carl Henderson, Allie Moore, Clem S. NuTjn. J. Bell Kevil and E. F. W. Kaiser of the Louisville bar. Several of the panel of Grand Jurors were excused for various reasons but the Court Clerk, assisted by the Sheriff, quickly filled the vacancies and twelve good and true men were installed and listened intently to the very impressive charge of the presiding Judge who prefaced his remarks by saying: "It is not generally known that the Ju dge of this Court is absolutely powerless to punish a criminal no matter what the. crime or the positive knowledge that the Couct may have of its commission until the Grand Jury has heard the evidence and returned its indictment." "It will then be seen," continued his honor, "why we should have the very highest citizenship as Grand Jurors, why they should be entirely free to act and responsible for their .nets to no one but themselves. This Court will in all ways hold up their hands and render all necessary assistance, as will the Commonwealth and County Attorneys." The crimes mentioned in the decalogue were named and the various degrees of the sam and the punishment as provided by statutes Nof our commonwealth were given. Especial stress v as given to the crime of carrying concealed weapons and the Juiors were instructed to go into tins natter, very carefully, as his Honor in indignant tones denounced such acts as those of cowards and that no man who is a man in any sense of the word will be guilty of such a piactice. The abuse of killingour full and our game birds willfully and illegally and the punishment for the same was given due attention. Th practice of Local Option Districts standing idly by saying and doing nothing while the blind tiger practically destroys whatever of manhood exists in such districts, was roundly scored and the Court advised the Grand Jury in such cases to simply ignore any complaints of selling liquor illegally without the bpst men1 of the district by their names ari'influence stand by-aid ; assist in the prosecution. "I am fully convinced" said his Honor, "of the great .benefit to this country of the temperate Drincioles that now nrevail.
