The Next League Game.

The Sacramento Baseball Club goes to
the Bay to-day to try conclusions again
with the club of that city. If the visitors
do not have to play against ten men, in
stead of nine, they will stand good chance
OF winning. But if Umpire Young plays
as good game for the home club as he did
last Sunday the same result may follow.
1t is understood that Burl will pitch for
the Sacramento club, although there is
some talk of putting Veach in the box.

THE HARLOW CASE.
The Defendant Held to Answer-A Con-
frovarsv Over Testimony

The Defendant Held to Answer-A Con-
troversy Over Testimony.
The case of Martha E. Smith against w.
P. Harlow was called in Justice Devine's
Court yesterday. the time set for the deci-
sion upon the question of holding the de-
PENDANT to answer to the charge of obtain
ing property by false pretenses. There
were quite a number of persons present,
the case having attracted considerable at
tention the past week. 1t will be remem-
bered that during the examination a some
what heated controversy arose between
Albert M. Johnson, one of the attorneys
for the prosecution, and District Attorney
Bruner, over the latter's testimony, which
was referred to in sharp terms by Mr..
Johnson in his concluding argument.
Before rendering his decision yesterday
Jus tice Devine took up this matter and re-
viewed the facts at considerable length
concluding by censuring Mr.. johnson for
his remarks on the occasion referred to.
The District Attorney had stated on the
witness stand that his first knowledge of
the case was obtained from newspaper
publication, or words TO that effect This
statement the prosecution combatted, and
the controversy arose therefrom, Mr.
Bruner contendiDg that he referred to the
g facts of the case and Mr.. Johnson in
sisting to the contrary.
The Court then reviewed the testimony
in the case at issue, and held the defendant
to answer before the Superior Court, bail
being fixed at $3.50. This was soon given,
and Harlow departed with his attorney and
friends.
AN ERROR CORRECTED.
In an interview published in our evening
contemporary Mr.. Johnson is quoted as
saying that on the day following the filing
of the complaint, District Attorney Bruner
called and examined the document in JUS
tice Devines Office, while the fact is, that
the matter did not appear in the newspa-
pers until the next evening"
So far as the latter part of this statement
is concerned it is founded on error The
fact of the filing of the complaint as well
as the nature of the charge contained
therein, were first published in the
RECORD UNION on the morning following
the filing OF the document in the Justices
Court, and the District Attorney could not
have seen the papers in the Justices Court
until several hours afterward. 1t is possible
that some of the feeling engendered may
have originated in the error growing out of
this misconcep.ion of the facts.

Sale Of q Hintioe God.

Messrs. Phillips, Son &c Neale, of New Bond
street, London, says The Times, sold by st.c-
tlop- 2 la, 90 Collection OF Burmese, Indian
and japanese curiosities, the property of a
gentleman who formerly occupied an official
position in India for many years. The great
attraction at the sale was 1.-THE Hindoo Lin
gam god, consisting of n chrysoberyl cats
eye fixed in topaz and mounted In pyra-
midal base studded with diamonds and pre-
ciouS stones. This curious relic stood two and
one-fourth inches in height 1t was preserved
for more than thousand years IN an ancient
temple at Delhi, whore acts of devotion were
paid before it by women anxious to have
children.
The base is of solid gold, and around it are
set nine gems or charms u diamond ruby
sapphire, chrysoberyl cats eye; coral, pearl
hyacinthine garnet, yellow sapphire and
emerald The gems are all rudely carved
and would, no doubt, by more scientific cut
ting, be greatly improved in value. Round
the apex of this gold pyramid is plinth set
with diamonds. On the apex is a topaz
l0-16 inches in length and GIG of an inch
in depth, shaped like horseshoe; in the cen
ter of the horseshoe the great chrysoberyl
cats eye stands upright This Is 1916 of
an inch in height, and dark brown color and
SNAPPED like pear.
An extremely mobile opalescent light
crosses the length of the stone in an oblique
direction. When Bad Shah Bahador Shah.
the last king of Delhi, was captured and
sxiled to the Andarnan isles, his queen
secreted this gem, and it was never seen
again until, being distressed during the
mutiny, she sold it to the present owner The
gem was finally knocked down at GO, $50 TO

Patti I'm Dublin,

One of the finest public buildings in Dub

CHANGED to be paying visit to the city when
this splendid concert hall was opened for the
first time, and shall not easily forget the ex-
element created by the event. All the
beauty and fashion of the place mustered in
brave numbers to do honor to the occasion,
and murmurs of enthusiastic approval were
heard on all sides when the heavy curtains
were thrown back and the fine coup d'oeuil of
the hall presented. Madame Adelina Patti
was the bright particular star of the evening,
and appeared for tho first time after ten
years absence, to be greeted with an over
whelming cordiality by the faithful Dub
liners, who, for the reason that she is of
Italian parentage, born on Spanish soil and
educated in America, claim her, one and al,
as an rishwoman. Every phrase of her de-
livery was interrupted with i'll suppressed
applause, and at the conclusion of her rem

With its foot pads, sickening smells
and diphtheria. Fl. Madison must be get.
ting to be e real nice place to live in.
The Gem CITY says:
There are several cases of diphthera in
the city. and the prevalence of the disease
is alone traceable to the filthy condition
of a number of alleys and the existence
of several offensive slaughter houses in
the heart of the city. The city ordinance
requires tn at slaughter house when it is
deemed nuisance by the residents in the
vicinity shall be removed outside the city
limits. There are several inside the city
that are generally kept IN good condition,
but still they breed sickness as well as the
bad smelling alleys.
We cannot expect strangers in making
their first tours over the city to believe
that Fort Madison is healthy city while
they are compelled to make the rounds
with smelling bottles under their noses.

DESTROYING Books.

The following is the translation of the
Latin text accompanying tho quaint cut
which served as frontispiece in The Book
Lover. The cut and text, both in fac-simile,
were taken from that most famous of cradle
books, ''The Nuremberg Chronicle" Q49S):
Forty thousand books belonging to the
most famous library in the world were once
burnt up in Egypt. Ancient writer's praise
the zeal there evinced in collecting books.
Aristotle bequeathed both his library and his
school uyceum) to Theophrastus. And he
(Aristotlel was the first las Strabo opines) who
collected books and instructed the Egyptian
kings how to arrange their libraries. Theo-
phrastus thereafter left his library to Neleus.
Neleus carried it to Scepsis "a city in Mysia),
where it came into the hands of ignorant
men, who kept the books shut up and in the
worst disorder. Ptolem@us Philadelphus
also collected a large number of books. And
rs Seneca notes, AGO 900 volumes, q most
beautiful monument of royal opulence, were
consumed by fire in Alexandria. Livy says
that this library had been tie ornament
and object Of care to the illustrious
kings. In truth, it was not SO, but
rather a kind of stndious luxury; indeed, not
studious even, to speak more correctly, be-
cause they accumulated books, not for study,
but for the sake of display, just as books to
many ignorant and servile collectors are not
Instruments for study, but only sort Of
Snowy furniture In their dining halls"
The destruction of the library Is described
by Abulfaragius: John the Grammarian, q
famous peripatetic philosopher, being in
Alexandria and in high favor with Amru, the
conqueror of the city, begged that he would
give him the royal library Amru told him
that it was not in his power to grant such a
request, but promised to write to the caliph
for his consent. Omar is said to have replied
that If those books contained the same doc
trino as the Eoran they could be of no use,
since the Koran contained all necessary
truths; but If they contained anything CON
trary to that book they ought to DO de-
stroyed; and, therefore, whatever their con-
tents were, he ordered them to be burned.
Pursuant to this order, they were distributed
among the public baths, of which there was
a large number In the city, where for six
months they served to supply the fires."-

It Tempts Them to Steal.

1t may look queer, but it is true, that the
stores that have large exhibitions In their
show windows do more toward educating
young boys to steal than anything else The
reason of this is that large crowds, mostly
women, gather about the windows to look at
the displays. Well, a young gamin comes
along and sees q pocket book protruding out
Of . woman's pocket, and the temptation is
SO great that he sneals up behind her and
steals the wallet. May be this Is his first
time, but when once given start in this
direction there seems to be kind of infatua-
ton about it which leads him to follow it up,
and Outlines results In his becoming a pro-
fesdonal house breaker.-Detective in st.
