Preolsely at 3 o'olook the jury in case of the Com vs Levi Smith and others, Mrs Stahl, prosecutrix, oame Into Court with a verdiot of guilty, but with a re-commendation of Jaoobs and Vanasdale to the moroy of the Court.

THE COM VS ROBERT GREENWOOD, alias Greenfield, for felonious assault, followed. The oase was brought by A Niokoy, who swore that Greenwood, who is an adopted son of Robert Hamilton, of near Boiling Sprint's, and whose real name is Chas Hamilton, had fired a shot gun.at him from oyer a wire lonoe which soparates the properties of the Niokeys and Hamiltons. Nickey also had a gun, in order to shoot or frighton some of the Hamilton chickens from his grounds. Greenwood was 49J yards away when ho fired his gun, the distance having been afterwards measured by the Nickey bovs. as they testified.

No threats were made on either side and no words passed. Miss Emma llamiltou.au adopted sister, and auut by blood, of Chas Hamilton, the defendant, testified that her brother had shot his euu oil' in the air while la the field, and that from where ho stojd ho could not havo Been Mr Nickey. Nickey shot afterwards, probably at chickens. The shots were close together and there was a third shot afterwards by MrNiokey on his own grounds. Mrs Ella Sherman, another siBter, was called, whose evidence was substantially the same.

The defendant waa called to the stand and explained the inoidont by saying that he had been out hunting and that when ho returned his sister had requested him to Ere off the load whioh was in his gun, which be did accordingly, and that he did not soe Nickey. The oase seemed to be one which was based upon a family feud whioh has lasted for some time. The charaoter of Chas. Hamilton as a peaceful and law abiding citizeu was testified to by Mr Otto, Mr Bnelley, Mr Wollor, Asbury Derland, Mr Mc-Caskey and Mr Gleim, leading citizens of Boiling Springs. Squire Martin was called to testify as to what was said by Greenwood (or Hamilton) at ths hearing and this ended the contradictory evidence.

In the Brushtown chioken stealing oase the sentence of the court was as follows: They were fined costs and fine of $25 each, Levi Smith to separate and solitary confinement in the Eastern Penitentiary for three years; Edward Sampson to imprisonmont in Eastern Penitentiary for two years, and in the case of Jaoobs and Vanasdal, who had been reoommonded by the jury to the mercy of the court, each was sentenced to 8 mouths In the county jail.

The Physical Proportions of Uncle Sam's Flighting Men. An Apollo is all right from the standpoint of beauty and serves well the purposes of the sculptor. But he is not the model for soldier. Of the latter endurance is wanted, and he has a model of his own. Ho need not be fair to seo Bolvedere), but ho is terrible to the (meniy.

An official publication by Lieutenant 'Colonel Woodhnll of the medical department of the army gives a numborof points with reference to tho physical accomplishments of the soldier that aro of interest at this time. First, however, there is a question of ago. The ideal ago for cavalry is 30 years, for other arms of tho service 85 years. Soldiers under 22 years are considerod undesirable, not being suiliciently mature. The minimum height for a soldier is 5 feet 4 inches, the maximum for oav- airy 5 feet 10 inches.

For infantry there must be a proper proportion bo-tween height and weight. Taking 5 feet 7 inches as a point of departure, the idoal weight is considered two pounds to tho inch. Seven pounds are added for each inch above 5 feet 7 inches. Thus a soldier of the height last named, that is 67 iuchos, should weigh 131 pounds. Should ho be feet tall 85 pounds should bo added, making 169 pounds.

Should he bo 6 feet 8 iuchos in height his proper weight would be 190 pounds. As 190 pounds is the maximum weight a soldier measuring more than 6 feet 8 inches would be too heavy if properly proportioned. It is not to bo understood that these precise weights are to be exacted from men who enlist. A reasonable approximation to thorn is sought and is do-mauded except in cases where the do-Biro to got recruits rapidly relaxes the rule, or where special exceptions aro mado by reason of tho desirability of tho recruit in other respects. For though tho main aim is to make a fighting machine out of tho best physical material obtainable, yet it is impossible to ignore altogether mental and moral qualities which may happen to count for more in some cases than the most perfect physique.

As an illustration of this it may bo noted that the application of tho rule rigidly would have excluded both Napoleon and Nelson and relegated them to oivil life. The question whether men from town or country make tho better soldiers has been much mootod. The general opinion is that tho hardy armors are best fitted for endnrance, but there is a good deal of evidence to the contrary. Colonel Woodhull's judgment hits the medium between the extremes. With two years for preparation tho farmer is better; for immediate service, the oity man.

This is the reason assigned: "Open air military life is physical promotion to city men accustomed to irregular hours, unwholesome meals and poorly ventilated rooms. To country lads the irregular and sometimes scanty meals, broken rest, necessity for prompt and exact action, and, above all, the cer tainty of acquiring such diseases as measles, whooping cough and mumps, which town boys always have in childhood, are very oxhausting. Louis ville Courier-Journal. A Happy Idea Coat, A number of years ago an order pro vidiug for a change in the full dress coat burst like a bombshell upon the young officers of tho United States steamship Alort, which was to sail within a weok for a cruiso down the coast. Tho commanding officer, who was a sticklor for naval regulations, insisted that tho order be obeyed before the vessel left San Francisoo.

A stay of several weeks here had depleted the pockets of tho steerago officers, and the paymaster would not listen to an advance. Seven men needed seven ooats at a collective price of $829. A hasty "tarpaulin muster" resulted in a total of less than $75. A happy thought struck a bright young ensign. Tho coats would bo uoeded only when it was necessary to accompany the captain ashore on official visits.

And only one officer went at a time. Why not buy one coat aud havo it altered by the ship's tailor each time it was used? Although the largest man weighed almost 200 pounds and tho smallest tipped tho scales at 130 the suggestion was gladly adopted. It is said that whou the Alert returned to San Francisco that full dress coat contained more seams and stitches than a crazy quilt. Los Angeles Times. DR.
