A PECULIAR CASE.
A wifo's Evidence Convicts Husband oi
Murder.

DENVER, Col, Dec. LIN the case OF
William Il. Roberts vs.. Mary Roberts, the
court OF appeals has decided that the di-
vorce granted by the lower court is void.
Roberts Is under sentence OF death for the
murder Of Henry Kaippla. An appeal for
a new trial is now pending in the su-
preme Court. Mary Roberts by this de-
cision is declared the lawful wife OF the
condemned man and as such is not privi-
legged to testify against her husband. IL
was on her evidence that Roberts was con-
victed. Aside from her testimony there
was no legal proof OF Roberts committing
the deed. The decision will have an inn
portant bearing upon the appeal now
pending in the Supreme Court. The
probability Is that with Mrs. Roberts tes-
iimony stricken from the court records
the charge OF murder cannot be proven.

The Color of the Blood.

Having recently examined large num-
Der of specimens Of human blood from
persons of different ages ranging from
four to seventy six years, some being those
in robust health, others being tuberculous,
! was struck with the great difference in
the shade of color presented, some being OF
a very rich tint, others very pale. The
richest color was in the blood of a girl
twenty-six years Of age, a graduate Of Vas
sar college, who had the highest anthropo-
metic measurement for respiratory capaci.
ty in class of about 500 girls. Her health
was excellent, and she consumed rather
more flesh food than is usual.
The next highest tint was found in the
blood Of woman about seventy years old
with a somewhat unusual chest measure
ment having also excellent respiratory
capacity and being in fine health. This
woman, ON the contrary, does not eat flesh
at all. / expected in her case to find a
more than ordinary number Of white blood
corpusces, but there were far less than
usual it being difficult to find them, they
were so few.
The palest blood was from chlorotiC
servant girl of twenty-five years and in q
.tuberculous boy of four. There was not
much perceptible difference in their cases
The girl had naturally good respiratory
power, but she had lessened it by tight
clothing and an almost constant indoor life
for long time. After spending month
at the seaside I examined her blood agair
and found the tint somewhat deeper thar
before. M L. Holbrook in Science.

Jealousy In Infants.

OF my two children one is a boy of four
years, the other girl of ten months. The
boy has Just returned home after an Sb-
sence of some months. His sister displays
great affection for him. She is also much
attached to her nurse-more SO at times
apparently than to any other member OF
the household.
Now If, while the girl is sitting on a
mat alone or on the lap of either OF her
parents, the nurse should take the boy
upon her knee and fondle him, the girl will
Immediately cry out in distressful way,
in a tone not precisely indicative of anger
or vexation, but more nearly similar to the
tone Of grief or disappointed desire. In the
case described the infant will not be ap-
peased unless the nurse puts down the boy
and takes her up. It will not avail for the
nurse to take her up on one knee, leaving
the boy on the other.
II, however, while the nurse has the In
FAINT in her arms, either of the parents takes
ND the boy and caresses him the girl dis
plays only strong interest, but no annoy
ance whatever.
1t Is evident, then, that the outburst Of
feeling In the former case was display oi
jealousy.-Cor Science.

night, and / came to take them at what
ever hazard, but when I heard you sing
that nursery song with which my mother
so often sang me to sleep could not stand

new and honest life."
Oh, my friends, there are jewels In peril
richer than those which lay upon that Ia
BILE that night. They are the jewels of the
immortal soul. Would God that some
song rolling up out of the deserted nursery
of your childhood, or some song rolling up
out of the corn fields, the song of the husk-
Ss twenty or forty years ago, might turn
all our feet out of the paths of sin into the
mathis of righteousness. Would God that
those memories waited in on odor or song
might start us this moment with swift
feet toward that blessed place where so
many of our loved ones have already pre-
ceded us "as shock of corn cometh in in
his season." $50" CsE

CHICAGO, November There was
vonnd mn IN the corn market to-day which
looked hke the work Of pool. The price
was given a Jump of over cent to-day in
very short order. When the advance was
over the buyers on the way up were ready
TO take profits. The weather over the en-
tire corn shipping section was OF the
worst. The reports about husklng turning
ont poorly were on the increase. Provis-
ions were sensationally advanced and
traders were nervous on the grain market.
The advance in wheat is in the face OF the
greatest visible supply on record. Then,
too. the local receipts were nearly go cars
more than expected, there was every pros
meet of a large increase in the visible and
English cables were lower. But the
weather was inclined to be stormy, which
was expected to cut of receipts some, and
zero weather was reported in many places
in the northwest. In ADDITION, some Dig
onerators were disposed TO take the bull
aide and were active buyers and the shorts
became frightened ard covered freely and
a steady advance resulted. Oats, moder-
