the prosecution, and J. B. Leslie, II. G.
Mclntire and Sidney McIntire appeared
for the defense. The tools, molds, bat
terry and solutions were introduced as ey-
ldence. The jury was obtained with but
one challenge. Deputy Sheriff Sullivan
gave description of how he obtained
poss esslon OF the instruments, gave the
story OF the arrest and how he obtained
Welkel's affidavit Or confession. A strong
effort was made to prove the defendants
innocence in taking an active part in the
work. Several objections were raised by
counsel Tor the defense, which We're over
ruled and exceptions were noted A mo-
ton was presented during the progress of
the trlal to enter a non suit, but it was
overruled by the court. j. b. Leslie on
ened the argument for the defense and
was followed by Mr.. McIntire judge
Bach charged the jury briefly, who retired
to deliberate. About seven O'Clock thev
came into court with verdict of guilty.
AT the request of Mr.. McIntre the iury
was polled and each one assented sonar,
ately to the verdict.
Judge Bech, incidental to the trial
made ruling that after this, where com,
sci Is appointed in criminal cases by the
court, the appointee alone must represent
the defendant before the jury.
DIVORCE GRANTED.
About year and a half ago Miss Lizzie
Travis, young and pretty lady, came to
Great Falls and secured position in the
Park hotel. She was refined, thouph
lacking in education. Here she met ono
Olaf Oleson and married him. For the
hrst few months their married life ran
smoothly. Ere long, however, Oleson
began to tire of his young wife and then
began circumstances that have resulted
IN divorce. He treated her cruelty and
hnally shamefully deserted her, at a time
When his presence was most needed Her
Drother came to her assistance. When
oleson ascertained that fact he came TO
her with fair promises of reformation and
begged to be forgiven. She spurned him
as creature to be loathed, and with her
own hands worked day and night to sun.

Interesting Relics Of Lincoln.

The talk about the removal OF Libby
prison to Chicago starts afresh reminis-
cences Of the war. There is living in
Chicago today a lady to whose house Lin
coin was taken from Ford's theatre on
the night that the presidents life was
taken by j. Wilkes Booth. The lady was
at that time a child. Her people were
southerners, and hated everything Yam
kee. However, they were the better class
of southerners, who never permitted any
one beneath their own roof to be treated
otherwise than as guests. When Mr..
Lncoln's body was carried into this
house the family yielded everything to
the comfort of the patient, and were
deeply grieved at the misfortune, as they
subsequently, showed. The lady in ques-
ton has the pillow upon which the mar
tyred president breathed his last. The
piece of candle which was held for the
surgeon as he was dressing the wound is
preserved and in her possession. The
coverlet which was thrown across the suf-
ferer, and many of the little things that
were about the room, and some of which
were used on the fatal night, were all
preserved, and are in the keeping and the
ownership of Mrs. Charles Rector a
north side lady Of Chicago.-Chicago

block had Twenty-Five Of these groove,
each filled to the depth OF quarter OF an
inch with ordinary stiff clay.
With his copy before him, armed with
a small pair of iron pincers, the compost
tor began his work; character after char
acter was transferred from the case and
firmly pressed into the clay. When the
form" was complete a fiat board was
placed on the top and the characters
pressed perfectly even and level with the
surface of the wooden block, the edge Of
which was cut to form the border gener-
ally found round every Chinese page.
The printer now received the form and
carefully brushed his ink over his type.
Taking a sheet Of paper, he pressed it
down all over the form so that it might
be brought into contact with every char
acter. He then removed thu sheet and
examined each character, carefully adjust
ing those which were not quite straight
with the pincers, and apparently never
touching the type with his fingers. After
sufficient copies had been struck OF the
type was distributed, each character being
returned to its particular box. The wri-
ter was told that the art OF printing in
this way had been handed down in the
same family since the Sung dynasty, more
than 600 years ago. No strangers were
ever taught, apprentices being always
taken from the same clan.-Pau Mall

Enthusiasm Over Scotch Songs.

We met with several instances OF how
enthusiastic Scottish feeling exists in the
midst of colonial life, which, with its
prosaic features and struggle after ma
terial wealth, is not always the best con-
server of national sentiment. The feeling
is apt to become eccentric, rs was the case
of the Scotsman Of King Williams Town
who had portrait Of Mary, Queen Of
Scots, hung in his bedroom. and who
every morning on rising stretched his
hands toward it, crying, son! my muir

enthusiast saying. MY Ain Fireside, p"

A Cook with q Centrifugal Motion.

A well known Paris scientist, DR.. De-
launay, has made some curious discover
les which show the connection between
little and great things. To ascertain the
qualities Of an applicant cook he says it is
sufficient to give her a plate to clean, a
sauce to make, and watch how she moves
her hand in either act. II she moves 1t
from left to right, or in tae direction OF
the hands Of watch, you may trust her;
if the other way, she is certain to be STU
pid and incapable. The intelligence OF
people may also be gauged, the doctor
further says, by asking them to make a
circle on paper with a pencil and noting
in which direction the hand is moved.
The good students in mathematical
class draw circles from left to right. The
inferiority Of the softer sex. as well AS the
male ounces, is shown by their drawing
from right to left. Asylum patients dc
the same. In s. word, says the doctor,
centrifugal movements are characteristic
of intelligence and higher developments
centripetal are o mark of incomplete evo-
luton. A person, as his faculties are de-
veioped, may even come to draw circles
in different way from what he did IN his
youth. Journal.
