The Writer Identified.

The anonymous writer of sour.
rilous letters to the TIMES has been
discovered. The handwriting has
been compared with that Of similar
productions on file. The writer is a
characterless woman. Her distribes
are therefore unworthy of furthe,
notice at present. The letters were
mailed at Bellevue; but the people
Of that town are entirely blameless in
the matter. This "terror" does not
live there.

An Idaho Boy In the California Legis

sented Boise county in the last Terri.
torial Legislature of Idaho, and no,
without ability, IS now a member oil
the California Assembly, in session a,
the Capitol, in Sacramento. He re.
Gently introduced bill in the Legis.
lature increasing the police force in
cities of certain population, and had
it passed. He was then approached
by an aspirant who rendered him, in
payment for his assistance in precur-
ing his appointment on the police
force in San Francisco, . check for
$4OO.
Mr.. Bruner took the check and
holds it as evidence Of an attempt to

JAMES n. BEATTY.
He Cannot Act as United states Dis.
trict Judge for Idaho.

He Cannot Act as United states Dis.
trict Judge for Idaho.
Notwithstanding his reappointment
- United States District Judge for
Idaho by the President siuce the ad.
journment Of Congress, Judge Beatty
cannot act As such; nor can he draw
any salary, or receive fees or emolu>
ments appertaining to the Office.
The Constitution of the United
States is very plain upon this point;
and sections 1867 to l97l of the Re-
vised Statutes, which were enacted to
enforce the provisions of the Consti-
tuition in such matters, even declare it
. high misdemeanor, punishable BY
imprisonment for not over FIVE years
or fine Of not over $1,000, for any
official to attempt to discharge the
duties of an Office to which no NAV
be appointed by the President dur.
ing = recess Of the Senate when the
vacancy which be Is appointed to fill
existed before the adjournment Of
that body.
1t is somewhat strange that Presi>
dent Harrison should have made such
. mistake Is to reappoint Mr.. Beatty
under the circumstances. But that
would not justify Mr.. Beatty in tax
ing hold of the office and assuming
, to perform it's duties. Nay, more. 1t
is stated that If M. Beatty should do
so, there are attorneys in Boise City
who aver Themselves ready to cause
bis arrest instantly the moment he at
sempss to act - Judge.
One or more Of these attorneys, it
appears, had some show of being ap.
pointed when the President realized
the unpopularity Of Mr.. Beatty's
n omination in certain quarters. But
that gentleman is accused of there.
upon destroying their chances by
fling charges against their moral
character. On being informed Of the
filing OF these charges, one Of the At.
torneys referred to telegraphed Attor-
ney General Miller not to consider his
name. adding: "If he-virgin is
wanted, l am not in the fight"
They have since "laid" for Mr..
Beatty, with the determination to
thwart him if possible.
AS Mr.. Beatty cannot act, Idaho
will probably have to depend upon
the good will OF Judge Deadv, of
Oregon, or some other United States
Judge, for = term OF court before next
December.

The balm Of GiIead, which is alluded
to in the Old Testament as being ex-
trelnely precious, and which is spoken
of by Strabo, Pliny and other ancient
writers as being d cure for almost every
disease, is a liquid resinous substance of
high fragrance and enjoys a very high
reputation in the East. 1t is generally
believed to be taken from a species of
balsamodendrow, a small tree growing
in Arabia and AbYssinia, and known as
balsam of Gileadeuse. The finest balsam,
called obobslsam or balm of Mecca, is
obtained By missions, is at first turbid
and white, but finally becomes a golden
yellow color and .of the consistency of
honey. Inferior kinds are obtained by
boiling the fruit and the wood.-BrooI-

"A Snail. Pace.

"A snail's pace need not be used
any longer as q term more or less in
definite. By an interesting experiment
at the Florence Polytechnic Institute a
few days ago the pace was acertained ex-
actly and reduced to figures, which may
now be used by persons who favor the
use of the exact terms. A hall a dozen
OF the molltsks were permitted to crawl
between two points ten feet apart, and
from this the average pace was ascer-
tanned. In working the calculation into
feet. yards, rods, fnrIongs and miles it
was found that it would take d small
snail exactly fourteen daTa to crawl a
mile.-a. Louis Republic,

It really looks now, asserts the New
York SIN, as though the action OF the
italian Government toward this country
had SO frightened King Humbert's sub
jects as to make tens of thousands of
them hasten to fly from Italy and seek
refuge here. They are coming over as
fast as they eau find ships to carry them,
and, according to recent dispatches, the
Mediterranean ports are swarming with
Italians anxious tosecure hunks in the
Storage of the steamships bound for
America. There is reason for enter
tanning the apprehension that, if King
Humbert we're to threaten to make war
upon the United States, we could not find
room here for the hosts of his subjects
who would be seized with the desire to
fy from his kingdom.

wv SONGS.

The sun is gone from the valleys,
The air breathes fresh and chill:
On the barn roof, yellow with lichcn,
A robin is singing shriIl.
Like a tawny leaf is his bosom,
Like a dead leaf is his wing;
He is glad of the coming winter
As the thrush is glad of the spring.
The sound OF the shepherds piping
Comes down from a distant fold
Like the ripple Of running water,
As tune!ess, and sweet, and cold,
The two songs mingle together;
Like AMI unlike are they,
For n sounds tired and plaintivs
And rings proud and gay.
They take no thought of their music,
The bird and the shepherd lad;
But the bird voice thrills with rapture
And the human note is sad.

though there are many ways in which
man can manipulate for his own pur-
poses even the refuse of nature, there is
little or nothing that he can do in the

You'll read of a big smash,
And many people injured
In the overwhelming crash.

And so you find it daily;
