The petition of Joseph C. Mack in for a rehearing of his case was filed yesterday at Ottawa by John C. Richberg, his attorney. The gist of the whole argument is that under the common law It takes two witnesses to convict of perjury, and that this common law rule of evidence is In force in Illinois. The attorney takes the position that the court, in announcing that the rule of evidence on this point had been relaxed in this State, was mislead, and he cites a number of decisions to 6how why this was so.

He also claims that the court misconceived the evidence on the facts concerning tho delivery of the spurious ballots. Says Mr. Richberg: Mackin not commit perjury. He may have suppressed the truth in one or two particulars, but that which was proven name Haynes; Surgeon, Z. P.

When the clerks at Giles jewelry store, corner of State and Madison streets, were removing the trays of jewelry from the showcases to the vaults at the time of closing Friday, it was found that a tray containing twenty-eight rings was missing. The tray was one of four on a swinging glass plate in the diamond case at the rear of the store, ana was known to have been there at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. One end of the show-case lies agaiust the side ot the stairway leading to the wholesale department up-stairs. The outer corner piojeets about two feet, making a jog between the side of the stairway and the end of the showcase. The door to the case is a swinging one, and opens from the end next the stairway.

It has a spring-lock, and the orders are to always keep it closed. But recently the hinges have sprung So as to make the door shut hard, and it has been found several times with the latch not sprung. The tray which was stolen was the one nearest the back of the case. It was the only one of the four in which the rings were not locked by a simple NEVER HAVE WE OFFERED SUCH INDUCEMENTS! justice F.

Iriday afternoon the store was crowded with customers, and it would have been possible for a clever sueak-thief standing in the jay at the endot the case to have reached across the end; opened the door, and taken the tray from its resting place.

Mrs. Ruger said last night, very sadly: "We have no more hope ot finding our daughter. I believe she must be drowned. It is now over five weeks since she disappeared and we have beard nothing of her. When Mr.

Ruger lett for Beardstown he said he didn't think there was anything in the telegram. However, we will not give ud the search until we are certain she is dead. I don't believe she is biding anywhere, although it may be possible that, she is being kept somewhere. But," she added, sorrowfully, that is hardly probable." Mr. Ruger yesterday telegraphed to Quincy for particulars, but up to a late hour last night had received no answer.

Bishop C. H. Fowler of California, who arrived yesterday, will preach in the First M. E. Church this forenoon.

He was asked who would be appointed pastor of that church, and replied that the matter would not be settled for a day or two. The ministers mentioned for the $3,000 position are the Revs. Bolton and Borden of Boston, T. P. March of the Evanston Second Church, K.

S. Cantineof the Ada Street Church, F. A. Hardin of Mar.e Chapel, William Fawcett of the Park Avenue Church, O.J. Cowles of Kansas City, Festus P.

A. Spencer as Assistant Secretary of the Church Extension Society, with headquarters at Philadelphia. The idea is to appoint Dr. Hitchcock, and let him farm out the work, he being in charge Of the city missions. Mrs.

The Directors of the Public Library met In semi-monthly session yesterday atternoon. The Committee on Buildings md Grounds reported that it had held a conference with Commissioner Cregier with reference to the improvements to be made in the City-Hall before the library moves in.

Mr. Cregier estimated that the expense of oue additional elevator would amount to $6,500, and that the city would heat and light the rooms, the board to pay for the electric apparatus. Dr. Swazey raised a question as to whether the library could legally recover the $25,000 which it proposes to expend hi fitting up the rooms, when it removes from the City-Hall. The fact that the library bad a surplus fund of $80,000, on which the City Treasurer was drawing interest, he thought would at least have the effect of reducing future appropriations for the library, and would militate against the recovery of the $25,000.

The majority of the board thought the city would return the amount when the library moved out.

Christian, the keeper of an intelligence office at No. 284 South Water street, against whom a warrant was sworn out last week on a charge of embezzling $8 each from Robert Keelz, Henry Wedeman, Gustav Mar-owski, Richard Avenish, and Otto Riezer, Swedes whom he met in the White Swan Hotel, Detroit, was before Justice Kersten yesterday.

The men said they were employed by Christian in Detroit Nov. 25 to go to work at a carpentering job in Oregon, 111., for a man named McLaughlin, whom they would find there. They arrived in Oregon and found that the only work being done there by laborers was wheeling sand for a railroad embankment, and that no such person as McLaughlin could tie found. The five laborers round that their money aggregated $2.40, and with this small sum in their possession they started for Chicago afoot, determined to bring Christian into court. Christian testified that he hired the men as laborers, not a3 carpenters, and that the $8 he received from each man was for the purchase of passage tickets trom Detroit to Oregon.

The court held that as the money was paid in Detroit the charge of embezzlement could not hold in Chicago, and dismissed the case. "Now, if these wroDged laborers catch the defendant in Detroit I suggest that they string im up," remarked a policeman. Rebuke that man," said the lawyer who defended Christian; I do not like to hear such language from a policeman." don't think he ought to be scolded for what he said," remarked the court. Justice Kersten, Capt. Schaack, Aid.

Colvin, and others then made up a purse of money to pay the fares of the five imposed-on bankrupts to Detroit, whither they were taken last night. SOCIETY" ELECTIONS. The following officers were elected Friday nitrht by George H. Thomas Post, No. 5, G.

The second of a series of receptions was given last evening by the younger members of the Kenwood Club. The sleighing was quite good on the boulevards and park driveways during the week, and the season was inaugurated with large crowds of elegant equipages. The skating on the artificial lakes is excellent and several hundred persons have daily taken advantage of the fact. A meeting of the boat-owners of Hyde Park was held last evening at the residence of George Di iggs, and the proj eel of a large and substantial union boathouse was discussed. The matter has been agitated for some time, and as nearly every boathouse along the shore was destroyed by the recent heavy storm, the prospects for such a building are very good.

There is a very strong sentiment against the Chicago City Railway Company's dummy line in many parts of the North End. Three accidents, two of which resulted fatally, have recently occurred on the line. Oct. 11 John Kil-patrick, aged 5 years, was run over and bad both legs badly crushed, but lived. Nov.
