An Old Law.

The queerest of the ancient laws
that have been allowed to remain
unrepealed in the District of .Colum-
bia is one which makes it a crime to
deny belief in the Holy Trinity, and
fixes the punishment at imprison-
ment. If that law was suddenly put
into force today it would cause a
lively agitation. 1t was on the books
when John Quincy Adams was presi-
dent of the United States, and he
was pronounced Unitarian. Every
Sunday he would go to the little
Unitarian church down on Sixth
street and lead in the singing. There
was a strange spectacle during all
that administration of the president
of the United States living in open
violation Of the law.-Interview in
Indianapolis News.

M. Bonfils, the curator of the Men
tone museum, has been applied to
for his opinion on the subject of blue
frogs. He believes that there have
been genuine specimens of this freak
of nature, although he is little
staggered at finding the tiny animal
has become more common Just at
the time when he has become more
valuable. He fancies that the color
Is changed in an unaccountable man

any actual experiments to justify
the theory. London Globe.

Two tall, graceful girls strollel wv

Affecting recollections poured tumul-

Reprcachfully the girl in the white

For time they walked in silence.
Both were deeply affected, the o.ie filed

Improper Language.

Judge 'FRONT.' Gets Justly Indignant at
Improper Language.
There was quite little scene ia Judge
Troutts court yesterday during the trial of
Thomas Bryant, who was being tried for
grand larceny in having on the Sd of last
March robbed man named Richard Robert
Of $500 in n lodging-house on the corner of
Third and Hunt streets.
Police Officer Dillon was one Of the
witnesses for the prosecution and while
under examination at the hands of Charles
4. Conlan, attorney for the defendant. he
was asked whether he had not told Conlan
Just after Bryan's first trial, when the iury
disagreed, that Bryant was not the guilty
party.
What did say" replied Dillon. twas
that this man stole Q money and gave II To
fat hyan and that you got the most of ii.
C9nlan became very angry and cried:
By -, that's the same sort of evidence
you have been testifyng to here all day."
What's that" remarked Judge Trout.
CHANGING through his spectaclss at Conan
There was moments lull and then Judge
Trout exclaimed:
Mr.. Conlan, you will appear before me
on Saturday morning and show cause why
you should not be punished for contemDt in
using such language 10 court"
Mr.. Conlan begansto apologize. and tried
TO explain that he had meant no disrespeet
to the court and that the words fell from
his lips Spontaneously"
Assistant District Attorney Hinkle. who
had been asked by the court TO make a
note of Conlan's language entered a plea
in favor Of Conlan, saying he did not think
any contempt was intended
Judge Trout, however, said such lam
guage could not 60 unheeded and insisted
tnat CONAN appear on Saturday
