sacr,Ieeious Thieves,

The recent sscrilegious thefts in Paris,
including that at Notre Dame, have been
traced to the sect known as Luciferians.
or worshipers of the devil. Their head
quarters are near Freiburg, Switzerland,
but large branch live in Paris. They
have liturgy which is a parody of the
mass. The consecrated elements are Ell
ther stolen from churches or received in
communion by female adherents. Aserv-
ice of proclamation then takes place,
which is known as black mass. Mgr.
Faya, bishop of Grenoble, has issued a
circular to the clergy ordering special
vigilance, as the Luciferians abstract
the hosts from village churches in lonely
districts without stealing the ciboriums
and monstrances in which the sacrament
is contained At the ministry Of public
worship the subject has been discussed
and instructions have been given to the
prefect of police to increase his surveil-
lance of the churches of Paris,-Paris

Birds GuIdsd by the st.ru.

Did you ever venture any conjecture
as to how migratory birds manage to
keep up their flight in due north di-
rection after night? 1t has been proved
that ON clear nights they often wing
their northern fight in the rarified at
mosphere three miles above the earth's
surface. This being true, it is clear that
guidance by the topography of the coun-
try is out of the question. How, then,
are they able to keep their beaks point
ed toward the north poleg The scientific
ornithologist comes to the rescue with
the declaration that they are guided by
the stars, and in support of his opinion
cites as evidence the fact that when the
stars are obscured by clouds the birds
become bewildered and at once seek the
ground. st Louis Republic

A butcher calls at the door and offers
a fine sweet ham, neatly cased The
mistress agrees to buy IL, saying, how
ever, that il is against her rules to pay
for any article until the whole Of it is
eaten The butcher, knowing that there
are many carts ON the road laden with
hams Just as finely cured as his, rue
fully accepts the terms, and when a
price is settled departs.
After keeping the ham for two years
In dusty, musty cellar the hOusekeeper
returns it to the butcher soiled and
stale, saying that, after all, her family
prefers fresh meat, and she has decided
not to cook the ham.
One spring morning a farmer knocks
at the kitchen door Of a city house, with a
basket Of freshly laid eggs for sale. The
mistress expresses delight at obtaining
hem, declaring, however, that it is her
invariable custom to pay for articles aft
IT they have appeared ON her table and
then only such price as she thinks fit.
Expecting an early settlement under
hose conditions and being in need Of
cash for the interest ON the mortgage OH

terms and departs Week after week

payment is made for the eggs When
nc calls at the house to inquire, the
maid informs him that her mistress bids

menu. In the autumn the farmer is sur

basket, saying that as the eggs have

The state department has received
from the American consul at Bradford,
England, an account of the condition
ing house owned and operated by the
ma -cipality, which is the only one in
Rkland. A conditioning house is an
establishment in which the true weight,
length and condition of articles of trade
and commerce are sci.~>fcally deter
mined. These are - regarding
which there has Ested differ
ence of opinion bethIrosgnitish export
ers and American importers.
Only recently one of the largest export
ing houses in Bradford was compelled to
allow an American customer percent
discount because Of the shrinkage in
large invoice of goods, though it was al
legged by the exporter that it entirely OBJ
liberated the profit of the transaction.
All this may be prevented by the import
er of either raw material partially manu-
factured or wholly finished goods de-
manding that the product be accompa-
MED by certificate from q legally au-
thenticated conditioning house.
The Bradford house being worked un-
der parliamentary act, all certificates
granted are legal evidence in a court Of
law and are accepted as absolutely cor
rect as to weight, condition and designa-
ton of goods on the date they passed
through the house.-Wa Washington Post.

FIRE INSURANCE COMPANIES.
Opinion of Attorney-General Little Re-
garding Their Liability for Losses.

Opinion of Attorney-General Little Re-
garding Their Liability for Losses.
TOPEKA. Kan, June 2.-Attorney-
General Little has rendered an opinion
in regard to the custom of certain fire
insurance companies of limiting their
liability to three-fourths of the actual
value of the property insured, which
will no doubt benefit policy holders as
well as companies.
whenever any policy of insurance
is written to insure any real property
against loss by fire, lightning or tor
nado, and the property insured is
wholly destroyed without criminal
fault on the part of the insured, or his
assigns" the Encouragement says,
1.-THE amount of insurance written
in such policy is to be
taken conclusively to be the
true value of the property insured,
and an insurance company cannot
limit its liability to three-fourths of
the actual value of the property stated
in the policy. If the company desires
to limit its liability to three-fourths of
its actual value, it can only do so by
writing insurance to an amount equal
to three-fourths of the actual value of
the property"

I9rd to the Question.
Topeka, Kan, June 2.-There has
been for some time good deal of diff
ference of opinion among lawyers and
school teachers in regard to the power
of school districts in the matter of uni
for1nity of text books. III. n. Gains.
state superintendent of public instruc-
ton, recently referred the question to
the attorney-general, who rendered an
opinion in part as follows:
Section 1864 provides that school districts
may, ut their annual meetings, indicate by q
majority OF all the votes cast their desire for a
county uniformity OF text books. Section $3.50
provides that when majority Of all the dis
tricts Of the county in any one year shall indi-
cate their desire for a county uniformity OF
text books. the county superintendent OF public
instruction shall notify the district OF such
vote and at the same time call for one dele
gate from each municipal township aod city
OF the third class in the county, to be elected
at q meeting of the school boards OF such
township. Section $50 provides that a
county text book board mag be elected every
five years in each county in the manner pre-
scribed in this act. Section 5STs provides
that when a uniformity OF text books shall be
adopted in any county, in pursuance of this
act, no change shall be made in such county
for period of five years from the date OF adop-
ton of any particular series of text books.
1 take it that where a majority OF the dis
tricts decide in favor OF uniformity OF text
books, then the superintendent calls for an
election and text book board is elected.
That when this board meets and adopts Sc
ries of text books its power ceases. aud that
such series so adopted shall be kept In use
for period of five years without any change,
and at the expiration of said five years the
superintendent of public instruction has nc
power to cause another text book board to be
elected without again submitting the PROPOSE
ton to the county.

Gray's Inn road last evening, was rude
" jostled by band of itinerant musi-

turned on him and struck him. He car
ried an umbrella and used it to defend
himself. The point of the umbrella
entered George Burton's eye. He was

SUGAR TRUST INQUIRY.
)enator Carlisle Appears Before the Cum.
rniftee and Denies Edwards Charges.

Senator Carlisle Appears Before the Cons
mittee and Denies Edwards Charges
WASHINGTON, June 1.-Senator Me-
Pherson was yesterday before the sem
atorial committee to investigate tho
alleged interference of the sugar trust
with congress and the executive de-
partments He reiterated the state
ment he recently made on the floor Of
the senate that when it became appar-
.nt that sugar was to be the subject OF
legislation he instructed his broker to
cease all dealings in sugar stock IN his
name.
The committee also examined Sena-
tors Harris and Mills and concluded
the sitting for the day with the testi-
nony of Secretary Carlisle. who denied
explicitly all charges made in Mr. Ed
wards letter, except one. This one
was the assertion that while comforting
with the committee he (Carlisle) on one
occasion, at the suggestion of members
Of the committee and using their figures,
put sugar schedule into shape, as ha
lid other paragraphs in the bill This,
the secretary said, he had done. He
/ declared he had not made such a visit
Is he was represented as making to the
committed to demand the sugar inter
est be cared for in the tariff bill be-
cause of the democratic party's obliga-
| ton to the sugar trust.
/ The examination of Senators Harris
and Mills completed the inquiry among
| members of the finance committee and
senator's who assisted in the prepara-
/ tion of the bill. Both senators denied
/ any knowledge of the operations of the
sugar trust in connection with legisla-
/ ton, and also denied that Mr.. Carlisle
/ had demanded protection for sugar.
/ Senator Mills asked if it was true, as
had been reported, that Mr.. Carlisle
had given Mr.. Havemeyer, of the sugar
trust, a letter of Introduction to him
self. He said this was fact, but he
had declined to receive the letter.
1t is understood that the committee
has come into possession of the name
of the wire manufacturer who is repre-
sented to have overheard the CONVERSE
ton between senators and members of
the sugar trust while occupying an ad-
| joining room at the Arlington hotel,
and that he will be subp9naed to ap-
pear and make statement.
Vice President Stevenson has signed
the certifcation of Schriver aud Ed
wards to the district attorney. This is
the formal order made under the law
I of 1857, under which it is purposed to
