Pair OF Bracelets.

- = AMAA W
A few days since Miss Jessie Quinn,
a young lady from the Nerth, now
living here, missed a pair OF fine gold
bracelets from her room and accused
the chambermaid, Lena Williams, Of
the theft, telling her that if she would
go home and get them she would say
no more about it. Lena was surprised
into saying she would go home and
see if they we're in her trunk, but came
back later aud said simply "she had
not taken them" She was arrested
and after spending a few hours in the
calaboose said she had taken them but
somebody stole them from her. Hei
trial has been set for nine o'clock to.
morrow morning.
Miss Quinn is the same lady who
was 50 badly frightened at Lucy Depot
some weeks since by a party Of masked
men who entered her room, dragged
her from bed and otherwise maltreated
and then left her.

For the purpose of deodorizing a
room in which there is an offensive
smell, common coffee berries and even
rags and brown paper, if properly burn
ed, will serve admirably. The smoke
from these substances not only neutral
ICES the odors. but really acts as disin-
fectant to slight extent. In burning
coffee. paper or rags for this purpose
care must be taken to prevent them
from burning too freely. II they burn
with free bright flame. the proper effect
will not be produced. They should be
allowed to shoulder quietly, and they
do this best when they are thrown on
hot coal or hot shovel and set on fire.
An excellent substitute for pastils is
heavy brown paper, which has been
dipped in solution of nitre and then
dried. This burns freely without fame.
and if it be dipped in q solution Of
benzoin, the odor is very pleasant
The best thing, however. is pastils
They arc easily made as follows: 1.
Paris Formula; Benzoin, two ounces;
balsam Of tolu and yellow sandal wood,
of each four drachms; nitre, two
drachms; labdanum, two drachms;
charcoal, six ounces. Reduce to powder,
mix thoroughly and make into a stiff
paste with gum tragacanth, Form
into small cones and dry them In the
air. 2. Formula Of Henry and Guibourt:
Powered Benzoin. sixteen parts; balsam
of tolu and powdered sandal wood,
each four parts; charcoal powder.
forty-eight parts; powered tragacanth

parts; make into o paste with twelve
parts cinnamon water, form into cones

Reasons for Declining Through
Freight to San Francisco.


Freight to San Francisco.
Chicago, April 8.-The promulgation
by the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
company of the notice to all connec-
tions. that it will not for the time be-
ing receive any freight shipments con-
signed to the Pacific coast, is explained
as follows: The Atchison company
wanted the Chicago lines to deliver the
through freight at the Missouri river
free of bridge toll, amounting to five
cents per hundred. The Chicago lines
declined to do this, on the ground that
to do SO would amount to discrimina-
tion against the Union Pacific at ON
aha. The Atchison company, it is said,
then asked its California connection,
the Southern Pacific, to discontinue its
terminal tax at San Francisco, which
was not granted. Out of these two
circumstances, in main, arose the con-
tention, which has resulted in the pro-
mitigation of the foregoing notice.
The Atchison company, it is claimed.
has an ulterior object, viz: That by
making it appear that it is shut out of
California by the Southern Pacific, it
will secure the cooperation of that
state in pushing its independent Cali
fornia line to an early completion. The
Southern Pacific is very obnoxious to
Californians, while to the approaching
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe road
they extend a helpful and welcoming
hand. This is shrewd tactics on the
part of the Atchison road. 1t is sur
missed, too, that the new line is not
quite in a condition yet to take care of
through freight, and this fact may
have influenced, to some extent. the
recent action. Ofcourse some arrange
ment will be effected soon. 1t is alb
surd to suppose that the Atchison COM
pany has permanently withdrawn from
the competition Tor the California busi-
ness

THE AssAssINs' TRIAL.
Their Bold speeches Before the High
Court

Iheif Boid speeches Before the High
Court
i4 St. Petersburg, April 9.-In the trial
Of the nihilists implicated insthe assas-
sination of the late czar after the read
ing of the indictments was concluded,
the president of the court asked the
prisoners whether they wished to say
anything.
Roussakoff, who threw one of the
bombs, spoke for half an hour. He
said he primarily desired to agitate
peacefully, but he entered into the late
conspiracy seeing no other way out OF
the social trouble.
Michaeloff, who was arrested as be
entered Russakoff's house, said he be-
longed to the terrorist faction party,
but denied Russakoff's statement that
he participated in the czar's assassina.
tion.
Kebaltschitisch, the bomb maker,
avowed his connection with the will of
the people party; their wish, he said,
being to gain their objects by peaceful
propaganda, but they were reluctantly
obliged to adopt terrorist measures,
and admitted to preparing five bombs.
Sophia Pieffosky avowed her partici-
patton in the preparations Of the Mos
cow mine. and in the murder of the
czar.
Jeliaboff, who is the most intelligent
of the prisoners, fluently related with
diabolical satisfaction the history of
the two Alexandrofsky mines. He
said he was at the head of one group
or party, and was charged by the exec
utive committee with the work of Or
ganizing the attack by bombs, and was
connected with the Sedowa street mine
as simply worker
After these declarations, the procur-
ator stated that it would perhaps bs
possible to shorten the trial of Jelia-
boff, as in his statement he attempted
to extenuate the cases of Russakoff
and Michaeloff, by asserting that the
former was only propagandist among
the workmen, and knew nothing of the
arrangement to murder the car until
the day of its accomplishment, and that
he was entirely unconnected with the
crime.
Jeliaboff showed great skill in cross
examining the witnesses, and succeeded
