mental image of the event differ
ent degree of vividness and distinct

retention Of the old, it is process of
displacement of the old by the new.
The more interesting or the more ex-

does the old tend to disappear.

Ancient and Modern Oaths.


The earliest record we have upon this sub
jet Is the Bible, where Abraham, swearing
his eldest servant, requested him TO place his
hand upon the thigh of Abraham, that the
mere act should be = witness to his promise

have In Genesis XVII. where Jacob, about to
die, calls his son Joseph to place his hand
under his thigh when promising to deal kind

Mormon Marriages.

An intelligent gentleman, who has recent.
ly spent several weeks at Salt Lake City,
gives us the following facts: The Mormons
have four kinds of marriages, viz: For time
only, for eternity only, for both time and
eternity, and by proxy. II a Mormon mar

At death he goes to heaven and she to pur-
gatory or rerdition. He can call herout and

she were believer. If q Mormon wants to
save an unmarried woman and does not want
TO add her to his harem, he has her sealed to
him for eternity only. After the ceremony
Of sealing they have no special relations te
each other, or reciprocal rights and duties In
this life. But In the life to come the Nor
mon maiden secures q place in HEAVIER
through her spiritual union witha masculine
believer, for the Mormon theory is that IN
married men and women are imperfect, and
Us such are immortal. MARRIAGES. necessary

How the Supreme Court Is Opened

q
TO begin with, there Is degree of dignity
and stately bearing about the court and Its
members which permeates even TO the hum
BILE attache. There is quiet in the court
room which recalls the Sabbath of the Gov
enanters. When one enters the involuntary
feeling comes on that the room is set aside
only for the contemplation Of the sober side
of life, and woe to him who jibes or jokes
In the presence of the Court. The Court Is
opened in about this fashion: At II o'clock
IN. the Justices come in from the consulting
room and take their seats on the bench. To
the left of the chamber Is seen a youthful
officer, whose business Is to catch the first
glimpse of the advancing officers. Then come
three raps with pondrous gavel by the same
officer. This is meant as signal for the
audience to rise. Then, with the Chief JUS
tice in advance, the judges enter from the
right of the chamber. To the rear Of the
Justices seats is an aisle. In the centre Is an
arched entrance for the Chief Justice.
Through this entrance the judges file and
take their positions on the right and left.
None enter until the Chief Justice emerges
from the centre entrance. After. all have
filed In the Chief Justice makes q graceful
obeisance to the standing audience. Then
the justices take seats, stroke OF the gavel
Is made and the audience seats itself. The
opening of the court falls upon youthful
official. 1t is after the old English form,
Oh, yea; Oh, yea" ETC., and concludes
with the words, "God bless the honorable
Supreme Court" The court is now ready
for business. All the justices are clad In
black silk gowns with an ecclesiastical cut.
In the dispatch of business the Chief Justice
is quite expeditions. He is always ready
with reply to question and eminently
satisfactory. The justices on the bench as
sumo different attitudes. Justice Miller
sinks low down In his chair, and but little
can be seen of him except the top of his
head so, also, does Justice Bradley. The
Chief Justice sits erect most of the time
when not hearing an argument, busy In CO n
sulting the calendar. Judge Harlan is the
most striking In appearance of any of the
judges. He Is tall, well built and sits erect.

We don't believe this story, although it Is
fathered by the Carson appeal:
On Thanksgiving Day poor, ragged devil
met Senator Sharon on Kearney street, San
Francisco.
"To-morrow's Thanksgiving and I'm
dead broke. used to work In the Yellow
Jacket" .."@
The Senator was turning away when he
caught he words "Yellow Jacket and the
remembrance of old times got the better OF
his heart. He turned kindly toward the
voice, and as the light of the street lamp fell
upon the miners features he recognized .

God or by their idols, but chiefly by Their
mother or their sovereign, and the act wit
Messing 1t Is given as being oftwo forms--one
to "strike the water" and another to "strike
the calf.n A further consideration s made
that the one sworn by must be alive, for up
on Kafiir swearing by adeceased relative,
his oath was deemed insufficient, as inviola-
ble.l 90 - -
Another form as being in use In Abyssin-
la, we obtain from " Bruce's Travels" that
"they took the forefingers of my right hand,
one after the other, aud then kissed them-a
form of swearing used there, at least among
those who called themselves Christian"
A few more illustrations upon this point.
We find that Athenians administered oaths In
the names of Jupiter, Minerva and Neptune;
also Themis, Ceres and Helois; the Romans
TO Fides the Germans to their Gods and
by their swords and boards; the Scandinavia
ans, besides In the name of God, touched a
bloody rings In the hands Of priest. Ro-
man Catholics swear by the saints as well as
by God. The Jews swore by Jerusalem as
well as upon broken glass. BY the temple
was another form; also by the God of Israel.
The Hindu swears by the Veda, which Is his
Bible, the Chinese at times upon saucer;
Christian, takes off his hat, and in the Uni
ted States raises his right arm, while the
jew keeps his head covered.
Many other quotations could be given,but
enough are given to show conclusively the
nature of the form Of an act witnessing an
oath, and Of the presume yeneration exer-
cised at the time, that the thoughts of the
person would be carried TO a higher plane
than in the ordinary walk of life by refer
ring to some person or thing deemed supe-
rior. And all these things considered In ac-
cordance with the belief Of the people and
times, made by custom, became law.

MARK TwAIN'S LAST.
A Practical Joke on a Connecticut Au-
1ianc1


dience.
The Hartford correspondent Of. the New
York Sm says /: Hon. Demshome Hornet had
very unpleasant experience lately. Mark
Twain was advertised to lecture In the town
Of Colchester, but for some reason failed to
get around. In the emergency the lecture
committee decided to employ Mr.. Hornet to
deliver his celebrated lecture on temperance
but so late In the day was this arrangement
made that no bills announcing II could be
circulated, and the audience assembled ex-
pecting the celebrated innocent. Nobody
In the town knew Mark or had ever heard
him lecture, and they had got into the notion
that he was funny, and went to the lecture
prepared to laugh. Even those on the plat
form, except the chairman, did not know Mr..
Hornet from Mr.. Twain, and so when he was
introduced thought nothing of the name, as
they knew Mard Twain was a nom de plume
and supposed his real name was Hornet. The
denoument IL thus told Mr.. Hornet first re-
marked: Intempcrance Is the caurse of the
country" The audience burst into merry
laugh. He knew IL could not be at his re-
marks and thought his clothes must be awry,
and he asked the chairman in whisper II he
was all right, and got "yes" for an answer.
Then he said: "Rum Stays more than dis
ease! !" A louder laugh. lie could not UNI
derstand II, but went on. alt breaks up
happy homes r'-still louder mirth. at Is

"A perfect roar and applause. Hr. Hornet
began to get excited. lie thought they were
guying him, but he proceeded. ave must
crush the serpent pa tremendous howl Of
laughter. The men Oh the platform squirm-
ed as they laughed. Hornet couldn't stand
IL. "What am saying Is gospel truth" he
cried. The audience fairly beloved with
mirth. Hornet turned to a man on the stage
and said Do you see anything very ridic-
ulous In my remarks or BEHAVIOR" " Yes,
Ina, hats intensely funny-ha-h-ha Go
on," replied the roaring man. "This is an
insultw cried Hornet wildly dancing about.
More laughter, and cries Of " Go on, TwainH'
And then the chairman got the idea Of the
thing, and rose up and explained the situa-
ton, and the men on the stage suddenly
quit laughing and blushed very red, and folks
In the audience looked at each other in a
very sheepish way, and quit laughing, too.
And then Mr.. Hornet, being thoroughly mad,
told them he had never before got into a
town SO entirely populated with asses and
idiots, and having said that, he left the hall.
And the assembiagc then voted to censure
Twain and the chairman, and dispersed
amidst deep gloom.
