Famous Sapphlres.

One famous sapphire was found in
Bengal by poor man who sold wooden
spoons, says the Jewellers Review. 1t
was taken to Europe and was bought by
the house of Raspoll, at Rome. Later it
became the property of a German prince,
who sold it to Perret, Partisan jeweler,
for $3f, $50. 1t was absolutely without
blemish, and weighed 176 carats.

q relic that is rare curiosity. 1t con-
sists OF an old Hudson Bay Company
knife, around which an oak tree. has
grown. The tree was felled and in be-

crown entirely around the knife, which
was hidden from sight until discovered
by the blade of tho AK. The knife,
which is badly rusted, was very long

OF the handle is seen from either side of
the stump. This knife must have been
brought to Oregon and laid in the forks
OF an oak tree in Polk County as early

THE HOLCOalB CASE
Humanity Did Not Suffer When He
Was PardOned Out.

Humanity Did Not Suffer When He
Was PardOned Out.
The charge Is tnade in the Globe article
that the governor is In league with the al
legged combination Of elevator men and mill
ers, the basis for the charge being the fact
that man named Holconib, convicted Of
stealing wheat from Minneapolis elevator
companies, was pardoned by the governor
before his sentence had expired. The alb
surdity Of this charge will he readily per-
ceived when the fact is stated that Hol-
comb was pardoned by Gov. Merriam only
one day before his sentence expired, and
that this pardon was granted OH the petit
ton of friends Of Ho1comb. who desired that
he should save his citizenship.
This course is frequently pursued by the
governor in cases where the prisoners have
been well conducted, and in 80 doing the
chief executive simply carries out the senti-
ment predominant in this state that the dis
charged prisoner be given chance and
every opportunity 10 regain the place III h,.
ciety which he has lost. 1t would 3c es-
teemed churlish act for the governor to
refuse the request. and it was for the pur-
pose of giving practical effect to well timed
and judicious leniency that Col. Clark Cham
bers was appointed state prison agent with
power to carry out this humane and 90.
cially economical policy.
