What an Erudite Lawyer Has to Say on
This Subject.
Zone of the most practical demon
STATIONS of the unreliability of expert
testimony that ever came under my
notice was made about three months
ago.
ga manufacturer of jewelry, we'll
known to the trade, sold to a lady GUS
toner jewel supposed to be sap
phire, for $780, ltwas arranged that he
should mount it in a gold ring with
other stones for an additional sum of
1884, and week later the article was
delivered and paid for. Soon afterward
the lady visited Paris, where she was
informed by a jeweler that the sup
posed sapphire was not genuine
stone, but was a 'doublet,' and was of
comparatively small value.
This naturally caused the lady
much modification. and friend who
was coming to America consented to
take the ring to the manufacturer who
sold it and have an explanation. This
programme was carried out and the
ring was examined by the jeweler and
his brother. The latter Immediately
pronounced it a doubtlet. His convic.
ton on this point was so strong that
even the sellers belief that it was a
genuine sapphire was shaken.
"Before consenting to take it back
or to refund the money the dealer saiG
he wished to see the importer from
whom he had purchased it. There
was possibility, he added, that the
importer had unwittingly given it to
him as real stone, or the stone might
have been changed while in the hands
of another jeweler for repairs. There
was some evidence showing that the
gold work in the setting of the blue
stone was not the style OF work of the
man who set the original.
Several well-known jewell rs who
were shown the stone stated that it
was not genuine sapphire, and the
man who had mounted it said it was
not the one he had fitted into the ring.
1T was not until after this array of
testimony had been read that the
dealers counsel requested the court to
give its permission to have the stone
removed from the ring and tested, for
it had occurred to him at the last mo-
ment that it might be a genuine sap
phire after all.
Accordingly the counsel in the
case, accompanied by the referee,
went to disinterested setter and had
the stone removed from the ring. 1t
was submitted to examination and test
by a lapidary and a number of expert
jewelers., as we'll as by one of the
original expert witnesses for the
plaintiff. They pronounced the stone
a genuine sapphire.
Upon the unexpected discovery
counsel for plaintiff applied for leave
to discontinue the case without costs.
The court promptly denied the action
and the defendant was allowed all the
costs incurred the purchaser in thu
case, which considerably exceeded
e4S0, the original price OF the stone y

'sThe Courler-Journal remarks that 'Amefi'
cans do not know how to rest That is espe'
cially true of the Democratic party. They
don't seem to know how, and yet the people
have given them first-class opportunity"
No, the people do not expect the
Democratic party to rest. At the last
election majority Of 100, 900 declared
in favor of Democratic principles, and
the people expect the party to pro-
claim them and uphold them without
resting, without hasting.
Each day makes palmer the evil
tendencies of the Administration Of
MIR. Harrison. Every pledge concern
ing the civil service has been violated.
Every promise made in behalf of the
tariff has come to naught. The sur
plus in the Treasury is being squan-
dered recklessly by every department,
while the conduct of the Pension
Office has reached the proportions Of
q National scandal
The teachings as we'll as the prac
tees of the Republican party are un-
dermining free institutions. That
party is striving to establish CEN
tralized plutocracy on the ruins of
popular and local government We
are to be dazzled by the splendors of
international diplomacy, and kept
quiet by liberal expenditures for every
imaginable object. Under the plea OF
aiding the State schools they are to be
made dependent on Federal bounty.
Taxes collected from the people in
1861 are to be returned to the States
after the lobbyists have subtracted
their commissions. The army is to
be increased, millions are to be spent
in steamship subsidies, the Ubiquitous
tariff will be maintained to supply
funds for mythical navy and for
building sea-coast defenses from
Alaska to Florida.
In view of such a policy of extrava-
gance and corruption, it is not strange
the Democrats are on the alert and
eager for the coming conflict They
are to see that no harm comes to the
Republic; hence their untiring activ.
ity will increase until the Republic
ans are driven from power.-Louis-
vile Courier. journal.

The Thrilling Experiences of Wild AMI

"While trapping lions in the Hot
tentot country for the Hamburg ami
NAL house," said Lawrence j. Ray
mond, wild animal hunter, Il had
opportunities for seeing the king of
beasts at his best and for making close
observations of his character. No two
lions are alike, except in few lead
ing traits, any more than two men are
alike. Every lion is supposed to roar
at night when abroad after prey, but
not half of them do so. When you
read of one charging into camp
you praise his courage. but for every
one such case [ can show ten where
the lion slsulked about like a dog.
You never find him twice alike. There
are plenty of instances where men
have been seized by lions and have
lived to relate the particulars, though
no two agree as to the sensations.

OF the natives to prepare a bait
in a rocky ravine. We had built
a stout pen of rocks and logs and
placed calf as a bait. The sun was
nearly down as we started for camp.
and no one had the least suspicion of
the presence of danger until a lion,
which had been couched beside bush,
sprang out and knocked me down.

supposed to be stretched across Africa

hundred miles north of the Gulf of
