THEeease GfJames Tracy, eunder centence

the aeuteness of a trained lawyer. He de-
monstsates to the entire satisfaction of
thousands his entire innocence. and asserts
in language of rare emphasis his guiltless-
ness. He does not expect a reprieve. but
entreats the public not to regard his

to us that this is q case where grave doubt
of the guilt of the prisoner exists, and the

Another Girl OUTRAGED.

A report came to the chief of police yes
terday that little ten year old girl had
been outraged out on Arlington hills.
There is something rather curious about
the matter. 1t is claimed that the outrage
was committed about two days ago, butthe
doctor who examined the girl reports that
no outrage has been committed. The
mother, on the contrary, asserts that one
has been committed. The little girl says
the act was done by "a tramp, and still she
does not give any very satisfactory account
of the affair. The police authorities have
been looking around to see if they could
find any one in that neighborhood upon
whom suspicion could fall, but thus far
have been unsuccessful.

THE CHICAGO HRE-IT GAMBLERS.
Very little sympathy viii be wasted Oh
the shorts in the late July deal in wheat
on the Chicago board OF trade, and their
frantic efforts to evade the consequences of
their own rashness only serve to bring them
into ridicuLa. The transaction in which
they lost their money was simply gamb-
ling operation. They laid bet that the
price of whest on the 31st of July would
be less than st was when they sold the
options They did not OWE a blshel of
wheat, nor did they ever expect 70 have
any they could honestly cali their own.
They hoped to buy options at lower price
than they had paid and pocket the differ
ence. If they had won it is to sag that
they would have claimed all the difference.
and nothing would have been heard of the
immortality of the transaction. Their OK
was gored, however, and they appeal to
the courts for relief from payment of their
losses.
Men who gamble, either with cards or in
stocks, grain or provisions. must expect to
lose their stakes some time or another
They cannot always win, nor can they ex-
pect to be paid when they win and re-
pudiate the game when they lose. They
take their chances with their eyes open,
and fully understanding the, consequences
Of misealculation. The only manly
course for them to pursue is to pay their
losses as professional gamblers pay theirs,
and to be more careful next time. By
their present course they disgrace the pro-
fession of gambling. 1t will do them no
good to invite public sympathy, for people
generally regard the board of trade deals
and the resultant gains and losses as only
part of the economy of nature-or.

Mixed Marriage Licenses.

Marriages are doubtless made in
heaven. We have the assurance for il
in many line; but it would still appear
that they are open to the charge of oc-
casional mistake, and that it is just as
well, in celebrating them in this lower
sphere, to see that all the preliminaries
are satisfactorily settled. Such care, at
any rate, would have avoided the very
painful results which attach at this mo-
ment to a nuptial ceremony that lately
took place at Verona. In that town, for
some reason or other, the official intrusted
BY the sindaco to issue licenses for mar
rage mixed up the names of the apple
cants in such sort that when the day ar
rived for uniting a number OF young
couples, the wrong people found them
selves named in the documents, and had
to choose between taking the partners
selected for them, or postponing their
marriage altogether for some time, with
the obvious chance of never getting mar
ried at all. With much reluctance on
the part of some, and, grievOus to relate,
Joy on the part of others, the ceremony
was allowed to proceed, a number of
people who until then had been strangers
to one another being declared respective
ly man and wife in true Italian form.
It is satisfactory to know, however, that
in the opinion of the sindaco of the town
this was not q matter of much import
ance; it being certain, in that gentle
mans opinion, that thus mated they
would experience quite as few disap-
pointments or guarrels as they would
had they each chosen their own mates
for life; while by promptly agreeing to
accept the official arrangement they had
saved the State representative much
trouble and not wasted the time of its
clerks in preparing fresh licenses in re-
turn for the fees.-London Telegraph.

A Georgia Negroes Trained Dogs.

A night or two ago one of our most
prominent citizens was aroused by ter
rible fluttering among the ducks out in
the yard. He had thirteen ducks in the
drove, and the unusual commotion at
such an hour in the night caused him to
get up and see what was the cause of the
disturbance. Imagine his CONSERVATION
when he found seven of his ducks lying
dead in the yard, and four others in the
hands of a negro thief. There is not
much strange about this, but the manner
in which the theft was committed is the
singular part. The negro had two dogs
one large white one. These dogs he
sent into the yard to catch the ducks,
which they did, and would then carry
them out into the street and give them
to the rascal. The dogs were seen each
with duck, carrying them out to their
master. Columbus Enquirer.

A French Rogue's Trick.

"Colonel CASTOR, u. S. A." Stopping
at the Continental Hotel" Paris, called
at jewelry shop in that city and left
some articles for repair; then he came
and bought silver cigarette case, pay
ing in both instances the amount due.
Then he decided upon buying bandeau
and necklace of diamonds valued at $780,
900, which he locked up in little leath-
ern bag that he had brought with him.
After figuring on the value a few min
utes-during which time a customer in
big cvercoat entered and looked at, but
did not buy, some sleeve buttons-the
Colonel presented his check for the
amount due on the diamonds. The lady,
in charge of the shop, refused to take
the check, and he said he would go and
draw the money himself, which he did,
leaving the bag in charge of the lady.
She took the precautiOn to feel of its
contents, and much to her relief recog-
nized the peculiar form of the diamond
bandeau and the stones of the necklace
within. She waited until nightfall, and
as her customer did not return, she cut
open the bag. To her CONSERVATION she
found that it contained nothing but some
bits Of wood and wire formed in the
shape of the bandeau,1 and a string of
glass beads that did duty for the neck
lace. The customer in the big oyercoat
who came to look at the sleeve-buttOns
had probably managed to change the
bags. The sharp thieves have not been
caught.

Cenparatiys Ialuss 4 Gems.

Scientists speak lightly Of colored COINS
as alumina found in nature, crystallised
and colored with oxide Of iron, and
"valued at enormous sums" 1t hardly
raises the more precious in general u
TEEN to know that the emerald, ruby,
sapphire and amethyst are almost the
same chemically, or that the emerald
and the aquamarine only differ in color,
the former being absolutely priceless.
while the latter has no determinate value.
Pearls only are sold by the grain. All
other precious stones are sold by tho
carat, which weighs four grains. Dia-
monds weighing less than carat are
more valuable than rubies, sapphires OF
emeralds Of the same weight But all
the colored stones exceeding carat are
more valuable than diamonds, and the
difference in value increases very rapidly
with increase of size. If ruby is very
perfect, and Of rich, dark color, it COM
mands an extravagant price. A fine
three-carat diamond light be worth
from $500 to $1,000, according to quail
ity, while perfect three-carat ruby
would find q purchaser at from 5000
to 5000. Rubies weighing four carats
have been sold in Eastern cities for
$4,000. Scientific writers class sap
phires and rubies simply as sapphires.
The red sapphire is ruby, and the blue
ruby sapphire. The present demand
of fine rubies exceeds the supply. 1t is
not exactly known where those came
from which are now finding their way
into the market, but it is presumed that
many are taken from old ornaments in
family collections. Sapphires are very
rare and scarcely less valuable than
rubies. They make an exquisite appear
ance. properly arranged, and having
small diamonds as foils. They are apt
to show dull color at night, and those
are consequently most sought after which
sparkle by gaslight. Large and perfect
stones are Of fabulous value. The Bar
oness Burdett-C outts has fine sapphire
considered worth 100000. Sapphires
and emeralds are rarely set alone, but
with smaller stones, commonly dia-
monds, which throw their beauty into
relief. Expert jewellers are not agreed
as to whether the sapphire or the emerald
is the more valuable, but the last, per-
haps, maintains greater popularity.
Its value increases rapidly with its size.

purchased a fine ten-carat emerald .

worth probably $4,000. 1t worn in q

Hiding my joy in foolish mirth.

And her heart was in purse-Of gold.
