A Record for Lost Packages.

Railroads usually have great deal Of
trouble in securing a record and protecting
property found in trains and depots. Gen
eral Passenger Agent Horner, of the Nickel
Plate, has arranged system which he be-
lieves will simplify the handling of lost bag
gage and parcels. Tags with coupons at
tached will be furnished station baggage
men and conductors, and all property found
will be properly tagged, description of
the property and the circumstances con-
nected with it's finding being sent to the
general passenger agent. In this way the
general passenger agent can at once locate
any property found when inquiry is made.
When the property is delivered to the
proper owner, a receipt is taken for it and
filed in the general office. The new plan
will be put into effect inside of week.

Free Coinage Growing in Favor.

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-The Star SAYS
"There seems little doubt that free coinage
will pass the Senate when vote is reached
and it is gaining friends in the House It.
therefore, appears possible that President
Harrison may be called upon to pass iudg-
ment upon free coinage bill.''
The Post will tomorrow say: The shape
in which the financial bill will pass the Sen
ate can be predicted. The proposition to
buy 100000 ounces of silver will be
stricken out and in its place will be Sena-
tor Stewards free coinage amendment. The
section providing for reduction to 81. 600
of the amount required to be deposited
by national banks to secure circulation
will be retained, as will also the section
which imposes a charge for converting
GOLD coin into bars for shipment, the object
of this change being to restrain the export
of gold. The bond provision will be
stricken out. The silver men In the House
said il was not certain the bill would not
be passed there.

How Supreme Court justices Study.

From time to time there comes to the at
IGNITION of the supreme justices something
relating to every branch of human en-
deavor. The rights of every man which
he guards most carefully are those relat-
ing to the business or occupation by which
he earns his living. Disputes upon these
rights lead to lawsuits, and out of them
grow the supreme court cases, and in con
sidering them the justices must learn some
thing of the trade or profession, of the
mechanical or scientific point involved.
Justice Lamar said, after making very
careful study of patent case, that he had
learned something he never knew anything
about before; he had learned all about the
s;ussets and seams and bands of corset
de had learned all about the different
stitches used, and of the number of steels
and where they should go to support the
female form. He had almost to learn the
corset trade in order to deliver proper
opinion in the case, and he found it quite
interesting Thus the justices have to ac-
quire all sorts of mechanical and scientific
knowledge in order to understand all the
cases that come before them. Washington

BOISE Cry, Ida, Jan. Especial tele-
gram to The HERALD. Yesterday Joint
RUE making the speaker of the house the
presiding officer of joint sessions of the
legislature was introduced in and passed
the senate. On its face the rule looks
very innocent and courteous to the house,
but when political situations are considered
shows political trick. The president of
the senate, Hon. John S. Gray, is pro-
nounced enemy of Dubois, while Mr.. Penn,
speaker of the house, is one of Mr. Dubois
warm friends. The rule virtually says
that the election of Fred T. Dubois as a
United States Senator is irregular and ir,

to elect again in which case Mr.. Fem will

A number of bills were also referred.
Mr. Goliath represented that he could
obtain room near the Sixth ward school
house that would seat forty-five people,
and he asked that the question of leasing
this place be referred to the committee on
buildings. So ordered.
Mr. ShowelPs bid for scavenger work
was referred to the building committee
with power to act.
The vote approving the bill of P. j.
Moran was rescinded, it having been said
that the boiler was imperfect, or was not
working properly. The building COM

boiler.
The treasurer submitted report, but it
was in an imperfect condition and was re-
ferred to the finance committee.

At 1915 it is understood the supreme
