weeks ago, and brought his bride West
to his home in Portland about two weeks
ago. As welcome home he has been
sued for breach of promise, by Miss
Louie Tillock, young lady of sixteen
sweet summers and as many sugar
coated winters, who claims ten thousand
dollars for disjointed affections, blasted
hopes and unrequited love. There is
no telling what the next Dalles boy will
do, but as it is The Dalles innings, we
are prepared to chronicle anything
without surprise.

PROPERTIES OF THE RUBY.

Recent Interesting Discoveries Regarding
tho Crystals OF Corundum.
The chief scientific interest of the
ruby corundum flows from the ex-
traordinary peculiarities of structure
that it presents, as well as from the
mysterious qualities that determine its
striking color, says the jewelers. Cir
cular 1t is found in crystals of great
variety of shapes, but all having a
tendency to the peculiar habit of
growth known to crystallographers as
''twinning." By testing crystals of
corundum with polarized light it's
structure is found to be wonderfully
complex, and under the microscope
its exterior face as covered with
a strange network of sculpture,
indicative of molecular changes. But
probably the most interesting thing
about the corundum crystal is the fact
that it is nearly always found to have
inclosed and surrounded some foreign
body or other which lies imprisoned in
it's midst. Stranger still is the fact
that those included foreign bodies
lie generally disposed in planes meet
ing each other at an angle of sixty de-
grees, the result being to produce the
phenomenon of S'asterisn," which is

light which is observable on certain
jewels cut with rounded surface.
Very frequently the imprisoned body
is minute bubble of gas or drop of
liquid, containing sometimes little
crystals of its own. The microscopic
cavities containing these things are
often very numerous. For long time
the nature of the gas and fluid con
tanned in the cavities remained a mys-
terry. The English philosopher, Brcws-
ter, was induced to investigate the
subject by hearing that q ruby which
an Edinburgh jeweler had placed in
his mouth had exploded while in that
position, with unpleasant results
Other investigators followed, and it
has now been made certain that the
fluid is no other than liquid carbonic
acid gas, reduced to that condition by
being under great pressure.

DETECTIVE SIMMONS THE LAST
Mr.. Simmons was recalled and told
what he knew about the stick and paper.
At this point the prosecution rested
their case and the prisoners waived de-
fense. This placed Justice Davis under
the necessity of binding them over till
the grand jury could act on their cases.
The defense moved to have the bail re-
duced from $4,000, which was the original
amount. After hearing the arguments,
Justice Davis placed the bail of each at
$4,000, except Klein whose bail is kept at
$4,000. Gibbons filed his bond with his
father and John Marden. as sureties.
Savage has not yet obtained bendsmen.
Public opinion is varied regarding the
strength of evidence presented by the
prosecution. 1t is a question how much
weight Klein's statement will have with
the jury It is safe to say that no case
in Wasco county has ever elected the in

THE DEMOCRATIC SPHINX.

The letter that his excellency Grover
Cleveland wrote, indorsing David Ben
nett Hill, and urging the New. York
democracy, the Cleveland style of dem
ocracy, to go to his aid, bears all the
marks and brands necessary to identify
it, as "the letter that never came"
Like his prototype, the sphinx, Cleve-
land with sightless eyes turns his face to
the desert, motionless, silent, soulless.
Whatever other attributes the president
may possess. he certainly has none that
will compare with his ingratitude. Fol-
lowing closely on this trail come egotism
and selfishness. Cleveland has always
been bigger than his party, in his own
estimation and his good opinion of him.
self remains with him long after the
good opinion of others has failed him.
If David Bennett Hill had been as small
of soul as Grover Cleveland, that OBJ
streperous chunk of obesity would never
have warmed the presidential chair.
Cleveland's action towards Hill and the
democratic party in it's hour of need is
the acme of ingratitude. 1t is the child

hand that fed it. the snake striking the
bosom that warmed it into life, the son
driving the dagger through the breast
that gave him nourishment. Democrats
will find place in history for this prince
of ingrates. From democratic stand
point he will be classed with Benedict
Arnold and Judas Iscariot, and over his
political grave, where he lies buried be-
yond the hope of resurrection morn, will
appear that curse of Hafed's, which he
SO boldly pilfered.

PAPER MONEY.

The popnlist theory of money has
first wild demand for currency based
on wheat, pumpkins and skinned milk,
but some OF the perennial greenback fall
lacies still hold sway with them. Their
idea is that money based on the credit
of the nation is good money. This, in
one sense, is true, and that is that the
promise of the government to pay is a
to accept, but to have that promise ac-
cepted the government must promise to
pay in something besides other promises
to pay, and as the money of the world is
the final thing In " hich debts must be
paid, the promise of the government to
pay must be to pay in such money, and
that is gold or silver.
The first paper currency ever issued
possessed this very character, the prom
Use to redeem in the worlds money, and
this promise has been behind every Cur
rency issued since. When Don lingo
Lopez de Mendoza, the good count OF
Tendilla, found himself besieged at Al
hama in 1884, he issued pieces of paper
with different amounts expressed upon
them, to his soldiers, and he at the
same time issued an order that he would
punish any tradesman who refused to
take them at their face. He promised
to redeem these notes as soon as posi-
BILE, and as the people had confidence in
his ability to redeem, as well as his
power to punish, they passed as money.
No doubt these same notes would haye
been taken at par without any promise
to redeem, for the reason that the Count
would have beheaded those who refused.
But in these days, as we have no power
to punish, our notes can only be made
to pass by the promise to redeem in the
worlds money, gold or silver.

SACRED RIGHTS OF PROPERTY

An English Curate's Suit for Trespass in
His Churchyard.
A curious fact has been brought to
public notice in England by the con-
duct of Rev. John Vallancy, perpetual
curate of Rosliston, who in the Burton
county court prosecuted the daughter
of one of his parishioners for trespass-
ing in his" churchyard and damaging
''his' hay, by visiting her sisters grave
and placing flowers thereon. For this
outrage on the sacred rights of proper
ty he claimed damages to the amount
of one shilling and sixpence. He con-
tended, says the NewYorlz Evening Post,
that the churchyard was his private
property and that no one had a right
to go into it without his permission.
He cut the hay and stacked it in his yard
and had by a formal notice interdicted
the defendant from damaging the crop
by trimming the grass over her aister's
grave, which had been done for three
years. When the young lady persisted
in visiting the grave he followed her,
took hold of her, and, with a contempt
uous remark upon the flowers which
she had placed there, knocked them off
the grave with his stick. The reverend
suitor lost his case because he wasicnly
a perpetual curate. Had he been a rec
tor he could have recovered. A Lon
don newspaper in commenting upon
the case says: BY two sentimental flc-
tions the churchyard is Gods acre, and
the church, the national or the peoples
church. But in dry law Gods acre is
the incumbent's freehold, and the only
right of the people in the national
churchyards is the right to be buried
there. The rude forefathers of the
hanlets,' the village Hampdens, and
all the rest, when once laid to sleep,
merely serve the purpose of enriching
the soil which produces the parsons
hay crop, and their posterity may only
visit their graves subject to the perrnis-
sion and convenience of the lord of the
soil''
