American Pearls.

Pearl mussels are often found in the
upper Mississippi and in rivers flow
ing to the lakes, but whenever a pearl
is discovered i'll any locality all the
mussels in the stream are immediate
ly destroyed by persons in search of
others. If the search were systematic
cally conducted, as is done in some
parts of Germany, pearl fishery might
become an important industry in this
country. In Germany the streams
are carefully preserved and are fished
for pearls only once in ten or fifteen
years. The shells of mussels picked
out of the river are carefully opened
with pair OF pincers made for the
purpose, and if no pearl is found then
the mussels are replaced in the water.
Bymeans OF such system as this the
annual find OF pearly in the German
empire exceeds $4,000 every year.

His imprisonment.

A case was on trial in q Kentucky
courtroom. An old man OF some
what disreputable appearance had
just given important testimony, and
the lawyer whose cause suffered by
his statements strove in every way to
confuse and trip him, but in vain. The
witness stuck to his story, and did
not loose his temper in spite OF the ir-
ritating manner in which the cross
examination was conducted.
Finally, in the hope of breaking
down the credibility OF the witness,
the lawyer at a venture asked:
"Have you ever been in Prison?'
II have" replied the witness.
"Ah," exclaimed the attorney, with
a triumphant lance at the jury. IL
thought Us much. May inquire how
long you were there?'
1.-Two years and three months, "
answered the witness quietly, with a
manner that was interpreted by the
lawyer as indicating chargin at an I'M
expected exposure.
Indeed" said the delighted lawyer,
feeling his case already won. 'rhat
was q heavy sentence. [ trust the
jury will note the significance OF the
fact. Now, sir, tell the Jury where you
were conined.'
"In Andersonville,' replied the old
man, drawing himself up proudly.
There was q moment OF silence, the
jurors looked at each other, and then
the court room rang with cheers which
the court officers were powerless to
check, and in which some Of the jury
joined.
The too inquisitive lawyer hardly
waited to hear the verdict against
him

months and 1G days, the son of Mr.. and

the second death in the family in the
past ten days . Valley City Patriot:
On Monday Mr.. 81. q. Brandstetter, a
large horse owner from Echo. Ore, ar.
rived here looking up some forty bead
of horses which were stolen from him
last August After considerable search
ing and trouble he learned that they
were shipped to North Dakota and
came here In search of them. He knew
Tom Elliott. having met him several
times in Oregon, and sought his assist
ance in finding his stolen property.
They learned that the horses had been
urloaded at Oriska and went there to
lock for them. They spent two or three
days in that vicinity and succeeded in
finding thirty-nine of the stolen horses
in possession of the farmers of eastern
Barnes and western Oass counties, and
identified them by means of the brands.
The farmers had bought the horses
from the man who shipped them, and
who is presumably the man who stole
them, and who. it is said, spent the
winter at New Rockford.
