ALL OWING TO THE WIT.SnsS. In tho Criminal Court yesterday, after tbo transaction of some miscellaneous business, Stato's-Attoruoy Reed called up the cases com monly known as the Hoflkins eases, and stated to tho Court that the indictments, twelve lu number, had been found upon the testimony of George \V. Parent, who was in court. Messrs. Blckerdyko and Stiles, who had been subpeenaed because Parent had requested it, wore not on hand. Mr. Reed therefore asked a continuance untfi Blckerdyko could bo brought in. Slilos, ho said, was in Arkansas. Tho Court (Judge Ilooth) hoard considerable discussion of tho subject by Messrs. Reed and Trade, and then derided that tho cases might bs continued until Rickordyko could be hoard of or from. Tho Court said in that connection that there was a certain class of cases in which it was plainly for tho interest of defendant to procure tbo absence of witnesses, and this might he one of them, though ho would not express any opin ion. Mr. Trade, for the defense, then offered to go an with tho trial and admit that Cickordyko would corroborate tho witness Parent in all that ho said. The Histe's-Attorney accepted the of fer, and was taken up. Four indictments had been found against Gibbons, charging him with being tho keeper of a common gaming-house—that of tho Hankins Brothore. A jury was then called and sworn. It con sisted or tho following-named persons : James Lyon. H. Sampson, Louis Burns. C. 11. McKen ny, J. W. Blalsdoll, Martin Dwyer, C. F. Kobn, J. Mahoney, Richard Fidclcke, D. Crowley, J. Colder. Tho jury having been completed, the State’s Attorney waived any opening, and Mr. Trade began tlio case by a strong assault on the char acter of Tarout, whom ho stated was a swindler, »«. fraud, and a cheat who had lived for > ears on fraud and lying, and that every person w.'ro had had dealings with him had been swiu dU d. Ho then passed on to givo a glowingoulo giurn on the practice of cnnl-plaviug. saying that no k'mHcll had felt more ncstacy at holding four Jiing.r than at any other time. The evidence then j roceedcd: To M'r.Heed: Live at 610 Hubbard street. Am married, nod have a family. Know Oibboue. ilnvo bo so bim at Hankins* gambling-rooms. Ilnvo soon blm deal faro there.

Was novor ordered out of Hankins’ place. Do not know of mv own knowledge that Gibbons had any in terest in the house or in its winnings or los ings. This dosed the cose for the people, and the 'defense called UJTUEB SHBEKVE. To Mr. Trade : Am a practicing lawyer. Do not koow Parent’s general reputation for truth and vcracitv.

Tho jury then retired, ana, after an absence of about tun minutes, re turned into Court with a verdict of NOT OUtLTY. The remainder of the indictments, viz.: one against Albert Hankins, four against George Hankins, and three against Thomas J. nankins, wore thou, ou motion of Htate's-Attornoy Heed, stricken from the docket, and leave given to re instate.

Tho Court directed the odicer having the process to bring tho wit ness into court or make him leave tho county. He did not, ho said, intend to have the orders of the Court made nugatory. The Court then adjourned until Monday. THE C.HtCAGO ATHEN^UM. ADDBERB TO TUB PUBLIC UT TUB UOABD Of GOT* The work of the Athemsum has increased to such an extent during tno past year as to render a removal to larger rooms a necessity. Tbe Board has leased the second, third, and fourth floorsof tbe building Nos, 03 and C 5 Washington street, between Dearborn and State streets, and ,is now actively engaged In luting them up for THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE; SATURDAY APRIL 24. 1875,-TWELVE PAGES. occupancy on the let of May. Thceo rooms, which are most eligibly located, being within easy accoea of all tlio linen of public conveyance in tho dtr. will giro the Society nearly double the available space it has heretofore occupied, and enable It to correspondingly enlarge its work. .... The first floor will bo devoted to tho office, ladios’ parlors, library, rcaJlug and lecture rooms. Tho latter will bo 83 by 90 foot, with high ceilings, well lighted and ventilated; away from the nolso of the street end of easy access, belmr up but one easy flight of alalrs. Tho sco ot,,l Hoi/r will bn divided into six lareo,elry class rooms enabling tbo Hocioty to greatly enlarge Us evening class work which lias heretofore been restricted by tho limited amount of space that con id bo devoted to It. Tho third floor, 40 bv W5 feet, will bo devoted entirely to tho gymnasium, making the most conveniently located and pleas antest gymnasium in tho city. As Urn change in location will form an im portant event in tho hletory of tho Hocioty, the Hoard of Government deems tho present an ap propriate time for presenting to tho public a statement of tho objects and work of tbo Socie ty, with some of tho rc»ult& already accom plished. The Athomcum aims to furnish to ths young people of tho cltv at nominal cost tho op portunities for social, mental, moral, and physical culture and improvement and healthful recreation; and to tho general public valuable popular instruction upon topics of current In terest. relating to science, art, politics, health, and the social questions of tho day. Tho agencies employed arc a freo reading room, circulating library, amusement-room, afternoon and evening lecture courses, even ing classes in literature, ait, phonog raphy, music, elocution, bookkeeping, penman ship, ami tho common English branches. Special day instruction in vocal and instrumental music, languages, elocution, and vocal training, a woll fmulshed gymnasium lor young men, afternoon classes in light gymnastics for ladies and children, amt regular semi-monthly sociables and-enter tainments for the entire mcrabeiship. During tho past winter the ovonimg classes reached an aggregate of over 500 in regular attendance, and tho total membership enjoying and prollting by its privileges is in excess of 1,200. A fico lecture course was continued without interruption from Oct. 12 to April 1. A dime course of twelve lectures on health topics was given during tho winter by leading physicians of the city, and a second dime course of ton tec lutes on art tonic* is now being given. Tbo work of Ibo Athcnnuun is on a basis aa broad ami liberal as that of our public schools or hbr.irv. nil persons of good character being ad mitted on equal terms to membership. Allot its privileges are tarnished to members at nomi nal cost, and at locs than their cost to the So ciety with tho present membership. But It is believed that the time is not fardistant in the fu ture when tho membership will bo so far enlarged as to render tho Society self-supporting, even at the present low rate of membership. At pres ent tho deficiency in current receipts is made up hv contributions from thofrlcnda of the Society. As tbo removal to, and tho prancr titling up of, the now rooms will involve a largo expense, tho Board invites all persons in the country who sympathize in the objects and work of the So ciety to come to its aid, and bv their liberal con tributions help to place tho Athemouro in an in donendonfc financial position. Tho young men anil women of the city are especially invited to identify themselves with tbo Society, and share its privileges, which are of a substantial and valuable character, especially provided (or them, and which are furnished at a tithe of their coat elsewhere. By tho removal to larger and more convenient rooms, every department of the work will bo rendered more efficient and valuable to tho members. * During tho next few weeks, members and rep resentatives of tho Hoard will, so far as practica ble, call upon tbo business-men of tbo city for contributions. But it is honed that many who rend this statement will not wait to bo called upon personally, but will forward tbeir contributions at. onco to tbo oflice of tho Society, and that all members who havo suffered tlioir membership to oxpiro will at once renew tbo same. .Memberships and email contributions from persons of small moans will bo ns acceptable as larger amounts fromtbosaof greater financial ability. Contrib utors of any amount arc entitled to tbo full amount of their contributions in memberships iu tho Society iu favor of any persons they may designate. Organized In tho dark days immedi ately following tho gredt file, tho Society has shown a wonderful vltnliiy, adding each voar to its practical work, outliving the panic and tho resulting depression pf business. With a yearly expenditure of from SIO,OOO to $12,000, with no resources other than its receipts from memberships and tho contributions of Us tricuds, it can point to a work accomplished and now being dono which will compare favorably with that of . many older and richly endowed or ganizations, and with an outstanding Indebted ness that Is small in comparison with tho amount expended, and which tbo Society expects, with reasonable aid from its friends, to laity extin guish within a short period of time. Tho Board believes that tho Athemuum has earned a place among tho permanent institutions of Chicago, and that all persons who havo at heart the wel fare of society, and especially of tho young peo ple. will cheerfully recognize its just claims to a liberal support. GERMAN MARRIAGE LAW. JTS NEW 11EQC1RI1MENT9. There*appeared in the Staata-Zeiimuj the other day an announcement to tho effect that David Saunas, who since 1572 had generally resided in Chicago, but who at the beginning of 1876 bad returned to Germany, and is how domi ciled at VTietzechkon, in the District of Nledorung, m East Prussia, eon of Hattons, former innkeeper at Akmonischkcn, now dead, and Elsko Hellenics, domiciled at Ho kaiten. daughter of the innkeeper Hellenics, wished to marry one another. Kantian,' the Government ofllc'er ut Nenkirch, in charge of marital affairs, announces that ho huowa of no hindrance to tho marriage. Ali persons awaro of any aro requested to notify him of them. Tho publication of this notice, ho states, must bo mode at Itokaitcn aud Wlotzschkeu, and in the United States. The Sloatn-Zeitung owes this advertisement, and others which wilt probably follow it, to the now Gorman'Marriago law which was adopted by tho Imperial Parliament last February. This act, which promises by declaring that a legal marriage cau bo celebrated within the limits of the German Em] Ire by civil ofilcera, only re quires that every marriage must bo preceded hv an application sotting forth tho certificates of birth of the contracting patties and the consent of parents and guardians. This application has to bo published in tho municipalities where tho two live, and, if any one of them has changed his or her residence within the last six months, in tho place of former residence. This notice, which has to contain tbo Christian and surname, prolcssion or trade, and place of abode of tbo pa rents, has to be pouted up for two weeks at tbo Town-Hall or other place desigoatedfor public an nouncement*. If 4uo former residence of either bride or groom is in another country, this notice has to bo published at tho expanse of the appli cant in some newspaper published or circulating therein, and marriage cannot bo solemnized until two weeks after tho day of publication of the notice. Tbe result of this law is, in tbfs particular case, that Mr. Haunus, who made hls-.applicatiOQ on the IHth of March, cannot have his marriage solemnized until two weeks from the 20tb of April, a delay of a month and a half, all due to his determination to marrv in Germany in stead of following the ordinary custom and having his sweetheart come over hero to meet him. Besides, by doing this Mr. Haunus escapes any possible danger of a malignant woman send ing across tho water false information which might induce Mr. Kautlen to put his veto on further proceedings until there bod been aan elaborate investigation.

Another Rreatc—Kmuo Considerations I'pon tho Subject of public (Expendi tures for Private Until* Special Diinateh to The Chteaao Tribune. Bt. Paul, Minn., April 23.—Reliable advices from private sources are that another break lias occurred greatly endangering all the water-power on the west side of Bt. Anthony Falls. Tho city papers and the reporters of tbo Ht. Paul papers have been prevailed upon to keep tho matter quiet, which is an indication that the break is serious, and corresponds with Information that tho peo ple of Minneapolis, especially milt and power owners, aro much alarmed. Owners of water power there faavo pursued tho suicidal and ex tremely selfish policy, first of crowding tho water into a narrow channel, weighing dowri with booms, etc., tho thin laycrof limestone over tho decomposing sandstone which loims tho bod of the nver above the fails and undermining tho limestone layer with tho tunnel, and thonliave selfishly bled their City and National Govern ments to preserve properly which they them selves have nearly destroyed, lu this connec tion somo timely questions should bo asked what induced Congress to appropriate money to pre serve water-power owned by a private corpora tion, and whether the Government engineers have performed their full duty in reporting upon the falls-preservation scaomo.

The PaU Mali Oaielte. says i ll A very setlons affair Is reported to have taken place lately on the Belgian frontier, near Votviors, which at one moment piomised to ripen into a diplomatic * Incident. A caravan of upwards of six wagons, twenty women, besides men, and eighty burses, attempted to pass from Germany into Belgium. But this was at ones prevented. The nuUtary authorities were horrified at tho eight of so many Bleeds being lost to the army, and were not quite euro whether the men aud women had tho right to escape conscription. The civil authorities were appealed to, and the onward march of the procession was arrested. Calmly did the leader of the band proceed to the telcgiapb-ofUcc, and there indite a message to Prince Bismarck from Balamonskr : ‘They have slopped my equestrian tronps. lam engaged to perform next neck at Louvain and other |dncrn. Ueslro them to lot me pa-s.’ Tima appealed to, the Chancellor con sented, and Balamonsky, who in rn renowned an our Pauper, kept his engagements at the ap pointed times and plnccn.tf * a imjAst at ror^YGAHiy. Oranil Jury* Clmrpe ol Judge Ilo*e» nmti nt IBcuvor, lilulii .Sait Lnkf 'lVibune, . , , Tolygamy or bigamy will require your attention. This la a crime that is very prevalent in this district nnd throughout the Territory. Its polluting otTccte are aeon on every side and in every community. The children of said mar riages are generally growing up as mid animals, without training, Instruction, or parental care. It is. of course, utterly impossible, except in isolated eases, for ono father to look after the (mining of children separated and in various families, and there is generally liltlo or no effort made to look after them. The consequences are soon all over the Territory, that polygamy in every phase of its character is degrading And beastly. It drags men down to the level of the boast. Woman is placed in the same social position. Hbo is looked upon as a drudge and slave, 111 only to the hardest work nnd to gratify the slavish passions of those to whom sho believes herself married. She never hears the endearing name of wito, but always bears the cheerless titlo of “my woman.'' Hhe knows notiiing of lovo, and the charms of homo are strangers to her. No'section of the United States is filled with people so negligent as ate the families in Utah. Vico is voiy prevalent, and general degra dation everywhere marks the footsteps of this loathsome crime. It is a crime that each of you knows is practiced, livery community Inis nu merous persons living in polygamy, and tho leaders, nearly nil guilty of this crime, persist ently urge their deluded followers into com mitting tho some degrading offense. Vet these very men will toll the world that they are law abiding citizens! Such falsehoods are but 100 Common, and men do not oven hesitate to some times perjure themselves in Regard to this oltiyiso. There are some men in polygamy whom I should not like to see punished. I refer to a few instances in which an honest nnd perfect separation has taken place between the parties: and I believe ail good people would rather that nono should bo punished if they will but cut looao from tho system. Porno talk about polyg amy as a part of their religion. Bo far as tho more intelligent ore concerned, this is tho silliest nonsense. They do not think it to bo so. They riocd to claim that blood atonement was a part of their religion, hut olovaling influences and bolter civilization showed this to bo sanctioning cold blooded murder. It is now almost if not entirely dead. Bo will this twin crime, polygamy, soon look to tho eyes of tho now deluded masses. The dav is fast approaching when this hideous mon ster will bo nut out of sight as a thing too loath some for public view. KISSING AND DANCING. To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune. Madison, April. 20.—1 notice that Mro. Swiss holm h&s replied to my article in criticism of somo remarks previously made by her. It 1b satisfactory to observe that she now says that dancing and kissing are countenanced by “ most of the churches,” whereas, in her first article, she said “all." An article signed “Jane,” in a recent issue of Tun Tbiiionu, answers for the Episcopalians 5 and '‘Jane” boars mo out iu ray assertion that I had never seen the dancing and kissing alluded to. This corroboration of testimony is worth something; for my acquaintanceship embraces the samocburch-clr clcs, I. 0., Episcopalian, and I may add Quakers. The latter do not countenance dancing, but dis courage it as a society. I have soon dancing in numerous Quaker houses, but rarely in tbo bouses of the elders. Their testimonies aroi against it, yob hell and damnation are not sup posed by tbem to await those who practice it. • I must award Mrs, Swiasbolm the credit of tolling what she behoves to bo the truth; and t am compelled to s&y that, on recent inquiry, 1 find that klsniug games are practiced among some Protestant denominations : and u relative informs mo ho attended a church sociable iu an adjoining village, whore kissing games wore in order. Dancing or card-playing would havo shocked these people beyond expression; but thu way kissing among men ami women was practiced that evening rather astonished my in formant. Women wuo showed somo modesty wore actually shoved into masculine lans, These same pcofllo were not backward in receiving money from the sale of tickets to a grand balloting scheme, to decide os to the beauty of ouo among several-young ladies; not scorning to care as to the result of thus pro claiming the superior attractions of a particular' girl.—possibly luiniug her young mind into uu ptolUabio channels of piido and vain glory. People must, and will, have amusements of some sort,—the young especially: and the straight-jacket tucorios of tlie middle-aged or supoianuuatcd members of somo denominations are bound to result in the practices Mrs. Swiss lictm assmts to have been on ore-witness to, and which 1 am corroborate as above. Episcopalians of my acquaintance allow danc ing and card-plavlnp, and I bavu boon to numer ous “ sociables ” where both wore in order: but I never have witnessed a kissing “ bout" of any kind at their church sociables or piivato enter tainments. I do not wish to charge the practice of kissing as common among other denomina tions ; but the instance I allude to is couilrmed by my narrator in a manner that admits of no doubt; and lam informed by other parlies that they have been present at several such kissing “ bouts " on other occasions. Mrs. Swliiaholm, 1 see, still adheres to her Ideas on cbaslitv; and she reiterates them by saving, “ I think chastity is not natural, and, in proof, point to savago tribes ami uneducated communities.” Among tho American ravaged (before educated people associated much with them) tho poualty for adultery was death.
