General Rosecrans' Bravery.

famous General Rosecrans. who
W.: placed on the retired list by tho
last Congress, is one of the bravest
men in Washington. Not all of his rep,,-
tation for courage was gained on the
battlefield, either, for he is the only
man in the capital bold enough to walk
down the street with Dr.. Mary Walker.
Between the eccentric doctor and the
late Register of the Treasury there has
long existed strong friendship. Clerks
in General Rosecrans' Office had be-
come so accustomed to seeing the little
woman in mans attire sitting near their
chiefs desk, chatting and laughing
with him most merrily, that they forgot
to gossip about it. Dr. Mary Walker
has q very sunny temper, notwithstand-
ing her martyr-like and unsuccessful
devotion to her hobby, and is besides a
woman of sense and culture. General
Rosecrans, gallant old veteran that he
is, has no patience with the thoughtless
persons who ridicule the doctor simply
because her notions of dress do not
conform to the conventional and has
more than once proved his sincerity
and independence by strolling q block
or two along crowded Pennsylvania
avenue il the mannish little woman's
company. Cor. Iowa State journal.

EXPERT TESTIMONY.
What an Erudite Lawyer Has to Say
This Subject.

What an Erudite Lawyer Has to Say on
This Subject.
Zone of the most practical demon
strations of the unreliability of expert
testimony that ever came under my
notice was made about three months
ago.
IA manufacturer of jewelry, we'll
known to the trade, sold to lady Gus
toner a jewel supposed to be sap
phire, for $3.50. 1t was arranged that he
should mount it in 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 IL genuine
stone, but was '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 a 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 Jewel ers who
were shown the stone stated that it
was not a 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 tho
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 genuine sap
phire after all.
accordingly the counsel in the
case, accompanied by the referee,
went to a disinterested setter and had
the stone removed from the ring. It
was submitted to examination and to- st
