The opal, fallen from its ancient SPLEEN
dor, is today called an unlucky stone
even by those who laugh at old super
stitions, but it once held a high rank
among precious stones The belief that
it attracted misfortune was founded on
Russian legend which found its way
into France. The Empress Eugene had
q horror of an opal. At sight Of one in
the Tuileries she manifested terror
That had the effect of lowering the price
Of the stone Paris Figaro.

A Big Snake vanquished by a Bird.


Walter Jewell witnessed novel fight
between gopher snake and kingbird.
The contest was fought to finish in the
road near the creamery. The snake was
large one and capable of swallowing
his feathered opponent with ease, but
the bird was too active for him and
came out winner. The bird would
hover over the snake but foot or two
above its head, and would strike it on the
head from time to time, the snake all
the while trying TO seize the bird, but
unable to do so ON account of its
rapid movements. After some twenty
minutes his snakeship gave up the fight
in disgust and hurried away to avoid
the thrusts of his tormentor.-visalia

Statistics Of Homicide.

The Census Department has issued
a bulletin giving statistics of homicide,
from it we learn that on June l, 1890,
there were S2,329 persons in prison in
this country, of whom 1886 were
charged with homicide. and of these
1893 were women. AS to color 4,425
were white, 2,739 negroes, 81 Chinese,
81 Indians and l japanese. OF the
4,425 whites 3,l57 were born in the
United States. One-fifth of the for.
eigners charged with homicide were
unable 10 speak English. In respect
to age the prisoners ranged from IL to
sc years. There were altogether 90
prisoners confined on charges OF homi-
eide who were under IA years Of age,
of whom 10 were negroes, l an Indian
and whites. The State having the
greatest number of homicidal prison.
ers is Texas, with 730, next New York
with 473, next Kentucky 439, next
California with 41S. California had
exactly one-half of all the prisoners
charged with homicide in the Western
census division. Washington had AZ,
which was less than any of the States
except II. Wyoming had fewer than
any other State, the number there be-
ing s..
Sixty-one per cent. of the prisoners
could read and write; but of the
negroes, Indians and foreign born
criminals the proportion of illiterates
was much higher than this indicates,
showing that of the native born very
large proportion were educted to some
extent. Over 3 per cent. of 253 indi.
viduals, had received the benefit of q
higher education.
Less than one-fifth of the whole had
any trade. The ranks of unskilled
labor furnished the greatest proportion
OF the prisoners, and next came those
that had been engaged in farm work.
Less than one-fifth of the whole were
total abstainers. The soldiers in the
cival war contributed 463 to the grand
total.
Seven-eighths of the prisoners had
been convicted, the others were await
inf trial; 157 had been sentenced and
were awaiting execution of whom 40
were in Kansas. Custom has abol-
ished capital punishment in Kansas,
and the State Governors have for 20
years given effect to the custom by
omitting to make orders for the execu-
ton of prisoners. Rhode Island,
Michigan and Wisconsin have abol-
ished the death penalty by statute,
and the prisoners in those States
charged with homicide were respect
lively 1916 and 127. These figures

QUEER POSTAGE STAMPS.
They Run Up to 500 in Value, bu,
the Public Never Sees Them.
From the Minneapolis Journal

From the Minneapolis Journal.
A $6O postage stamp-whoever
heard of such thing! A natural
ejaculation for 80 men out of 100 to
make if you talk of a stamp so value
able. And yet there are such stamps
in daily use. There arc $4S stamps
too, $36, $24, $l2, SO, Sc, 50, $192, 9G
cents, "a cents, and so on down to
and including cent, all of peculiar
kind, which, not one man in 10000.
unless he be a postal employe, ever
heard of or ever saw. It's matter of
considerable question whether many
OF the men throughout the United
States whose money goes to pay for
these stamps know that such stamps
are in existence; far fewer ever saw
one.
These stamps are for the payment
oi postage on newspapers and period
icals. There was a time when stamps
were placed direct upon the period
icals; now Uncle Sam does all the
stamping himself. He has all the fun
OF licking the stamps. pasting them
on, and then spelling their handsome
faces with ugly black cancellation
marks.
The stamps used for paying this
postage are but three. quarters of an
inch in width by an inch and one
quarter in length. From l cent up to
IL cents they are a slate color; from
"A cents to 96 cents, red; while the
higher priced ones are red, blue, yellow
and green. The stamp bears upon it
the words newspapers" along one
side and periodicals" on the other,
the denomination mark being in the
corner. The postage is paid on the
papers by check or cash, all large
papers like the Journal keeping a sum
on deposit ahead each week. Ths
postage for the day is figured up &C
cording to the weight of the package
and the stamps, to the extent of the
postage, are then selected. These are
affixed in a row to a sheet in a large
book Cancelled. Once every quarter
these Cancelled stamp slips are sen,
on to Washington where they are KEEP,
for record. None of these stamps are
ever sold, so that even if one passed
into dishonest hands, it would be oI
little use, for it is not legal tender
and could not be used for postal pur
poses. The stealer of a swag of news
paper and periodical stamps, would be
forced to establish little postal sys.
