TIMBER SUITS.

The Idaho Cases Dismissed, but Convictions
Being Received I'm Oregon Every Day.
Upon complaint Of Special Timber
Agent HALEY, Judge Buck, acting as
United States commissioner, issued
warrants for the arrest Of John H.
Mitchell, Jr., of Seattle. son Of Senator
Mitchell, Of Oregon; ". N. Massey, of
Spokane Falls; T. L. Greenough, of
Sand Point; J. Richard. David Ben
nett. Alec Ramage and A. L. Oliver,
of Kootenai. They are all charged
with violating the provisions of one
Of the Sparks timber manifestos by
cutting railroad ties on unsurveyed
government lands in Kootenai coun-
ty. The gentlemen were all brought
here in charge OF Deputy United
States Marshall Loar, OF Rathdrum.
and Jas. McNaught, Esq.. ofSeattle, at.
torney for the western division Of the
Northern Pacific railroad, arrived last
night to appear as counsel for them.
Judge Buck turned all the papers in
the case over to United States Com
missioner King. The case was set for
trial at o'clock this p. m. At that
hour the defendants appeared with
their counsel ready for trial. No one
appeared on behalf Of the government
and Mr.. McNaught moved that the
case be dismissed for want of prosecu-
tion. The commissioner said he
would adjourn for one hour. AT the
end of that time the cases was again
called but no one appeared for the
government and the farce was ended
by the dismissal OF the case for want
Of evidence, and the discharge Of the
prisoners. The legal points involved
will probably be argued at Lewiston
next month. the government does not
appear to hsvea very strong case. The
United States district attorneys
OF Montana have declared that
they believd the railroad company to
be tenants 10 common with the
government. So far they agree
perfectly with the railroad attorney

When any one cuts timber on
government land he sows the seeds
for D fine lot Of lawsuits. The
man who cuts the logs is tried and
then the sawmill man who cuts them
up is tried, and next comes the man
WHO bought the lumber from the saw
mill men. In the United States cir
cult court yesterday verdicts were
found against I. and 8. Cato for eS82
and against James Cox for $40, who
had bought lumber from Rowley
4 whitsett, who had cut it
from logs on government land. There.
It is believed, is the end Of the suite Of
suits on this lot Of logs. And now the
United States attorney will gird up
lolns and tackle another timber cass.

"Well, the piece seed and dust
grades have always a market price,
which varies, Of couse, with the quality
and general color. The cherry and par
agon' are sold on an entirely different
basis. If many fine ones are on the mar
ket at a time they may be had at reason
able rates. Some years they bring al
most any price. The last two years,
especially, there has been a great scar
city of fine pearls, although there is nc
falling off in the supply of the small
stuff. When a pearl exceeds one carat
in weight it is sold separately. Under
that weight they are sold in parcels and
become less valuable as they become
smaller. The smallest dust pearls col

The question, widely discussed of late.
Of open or secret sessions of the senate, IS
one-the decision OF which is wisely left TO
that body itself. Senators. as a rule, are
eminently conservative, opposed to all in
~novation, and especially tenacious of their
own privileges. Less directly represent
ing the people, they are less amenable to
the people and to the tribunal of public
opinion. Were this not the case, so
nearly unanimous has been the expression
of that opinion that the doors OF the
chamber would have been thrown open
and the seal CT secresy removed from all
proceedings except such as involve the
discussion of foreign relations in conncc-
ton with the treaty making power. 1t Is
not likely that secret sessions will be done
away with altogether. nor to any extent
soon, but the rules of the senate will
gradually be modified in this respect, as
the members from the SC .eral states be-
come impressed with the wishes of their
respective constituencies on the subject.
The question, however, notwithstand-
ing the almost unanimous con
domination of senatorial secresy, is
not altogether one sided; there is much to
be said on benalf Of the right to deliber
ate in secret, when, in thu estimation Of
the senate itself, the public interest may
deman | such a course. In many states
in peculiar cases involving testimony nee
essarily scandalous and unfit for pub.ica
ton, the judges have and exercise the
power to exclude the general public from
the presence Of the court during the pen
dency Of such cases, yet there isno failure
OF Justice, nor do the people complain Of
All infraction of right. In considering
nominations there may often exist n SINH
lar necessity for the protection both Of
private character and OF public morals.
Yet in ordinary cases, in view Of the NOR
bid craving for knowledge on the part Of
the press and people, the senate should
defer to the popular wish by restricting
its enforcement of secrecy to appropriate
cases and in regard to these care should be
taken to make that secrecy complete.

Life begins in these strange caravan-
series at O, when the proprietor or clerk
opens the front door and sends out for
the breakfast materials. These COM
prise rice. fish, pork, bread, and vege-
tables. The dodgers next put in an ap-
pearance, crawling out of their hunks,
still drowsy with sleep or sleep-giving
drugs. A pail of water and a coarse rag
in the kitchen soon restore the %circula-
ton of the body and fit one and all for
the morning meal. This is made of the
articles described, but cooked in ways
very different from those employed in
civilized circles. The rice is plain boiled,
the fish boiled or stewed and served with
an aromatic sauce in which ginger,
cloves and red pepper are prominent fac
tors; the pork and vegetables are chopped
into thin pieces and stewed together.
The drinks employed are hot and cold
tea, and sometimes minute quantities of
strong arrack or rice brandy. After
breakfast many of the lodgsrs depart for
their daily work. Among these early
birds are cigar makers, clerks, peddlcrs.
and shipping n
Those who remain are generally sea-
men, merchants, gamblers. and agents.
These after their repast light a cigar or
cigarette, opium or hasheesh. and take
solid comfort" for an hour or more.
Those who have literary tastes lie down
in their hunks and read, for, strange to
say, most orientals assume a recumbent
attitude when reading or studying; tllose
who desire excitement resort to dom
inoes and other games of chance, while
the majority simply smoke and swap
stories" AT moor a second meal is served
similar to breakfast, but including be-
sides soups and stews, in which macaroni
and vermicelli are chief features. At 5
o'clock dinner is given. 1t is like its pre-
decessors in the articles served, only
there is more Of them and all are more
highly spiced and seasoned.-New York

A topic of conversation in American
society, writes a Paris correspondent. is
the lonely state of Mr.. George Rancroft,
the historian, who a short time ago was
left a widower at the age of So. 1 had a
short and agreeable acquaintance with
Mrs. Bancroft, when she and her husband
represented the United States republic at
Berlin. Had she lived another year she
would have celebrated her golden we'd
ding with Bancroft, who was her second
husband. They were an interesting
couple. She was ceremonious without
being prim or starched. Her smile
showed self-complacency, free, however,
from c%onceit. and certainly a wish to be
very gracious. She spoke with delibera-
ton. and yet avoided drawing. and
brought out every word with clear dis
tinctness. Mr.. Bancroft, a white-bearded,
hale old gentleman, with a fine eye, that
denoted sagacity and a quick perception,
was, when she spoke Of him, "the minis
ter" or my husband He was as cere-
monious and as free from starch as his
wife. Their mental habits and mode Of
speech were cultivated before tele-
graphese was invented and the reaction
toward blunt Anglo-Saxon p~hraseology
had taken place.
Mrs. Bancroft's conversation savored
of elegant extracts" 1t wa pictur-
esquely and prettily old-fashioned. l
only knew her when she was staying in
a hotel; but / was told that she was a
notable, although by no a fussy,
housekeeper, and that the German crown
princess picked up many American cul-
mary notions when dining at the table
such as cranberry preserves with roast
mutton, oyster soup, pumpkin pie, and
doughnuts. l one day had the pleasure
of walking round a horticultural show
with Mrs. Bancroft, who l found was an
enthusiastic rose-fancier, and could teach
most of the gardeners who exhibited i'm
proved methods of cultivating different
species of roses. She was also a walking
biographical encyclopaedia. Who was
there within the last sixty-six years in
Europe or America that either he or she
had not known or seen or heard about
from mutual friends?
