Attorney General Jones VS.. the State
Board Of Finance, consisting of the
governor, auditor and treasurer. This
was an application for writ to COM
pei the board to issue bonds of the state
to an amount aggregating about 81 $780,
900 and to cause the bonds to be sold
for the purpose of funding outstanding
warrants drawn on the general military
and tidelands funds. pursuant to an
act of the last legislature. The consti-
nationality of this enactment was as
sailed upon many grounds, only one of
which the supreme court noticed, as
the determination of that issue dis
posed of the case. The substance of
the courts decision follows:
The authority conferred by the act is
to issue and sell bonds, and, conceding
that it is fairly to be inferred that the
funds realized from the sale shall be
applied to the payment of the indebt-
edness of the state, it is apparent that,
after such bonds are sold and until the
proceeds are so applied, the indebted
ness of the state would be increased
upward of 81, 500, 900, or to an amount
beyond the limit of Indebtedness fixed
by the constitution; nor is it suffi-
Gent answer, in the opinion of the su-
preme court, to say that it must be pre-
sumed that the officers entrusted to
carry out the provisions of the act will
fully discharge their duties and that
the present Indebtedness of the state
will be extinguished by the proceeds
of the bonds and ultimately the indebt-
edness be reduced to its present limit.
The supreme court fully comedies
with the opinion expressed i'll Dom
Township VS.. Cummins, 142 U. S. 1855,
that if the proceeds of the sale are
used by the municipal officers as di-
rected by the statutes in paying off the
old debt the aggregate Indebtedness
will ultimately be reduced to the for
mer limit; but it is none the less true
that it has been increased in the inter-
val and that, unless those officers do
their duty, the increase will be per-
manent. The act is plainly in conflict
with the constitution and the applica-
ton is denied.
The opinion is by Gordon, and is
signed by Anders, Scott and Dunbar,
Hoyt dissenting.

sugar. OIL. Perfume and stsarin Are
Csed In Their Manufacture.
The peculiar and characteristic
doors of flowers, leaves, fruits, seeds,
roots, barks and woods are due to the
presence Of essential oils. Without
the latter there would be no liquors
or perfumcry, and spices would be
unknown. In some plants the oil is
found only in the flowers, Us the rose
and violet; in others in the fruit, as
the nutmeg; in others in the unex-
banded buds, as the Glove; in others
in the bark, as certain laurels, and in
still others in the outer rind of the
fruit, a, the orange and lemon.
Italy supplies the world with orange
and lemon oils, and the Italians are
up to all the tricks OF mixing and
adulterating. The United States
consul-general to Italy reports that
practically all Of the orange and
lemon oils which reach the United
States are sophisticated to a great
extent. Bergamot, the most costly,
is adulterated with oil of sweet
orange, %turpcntine, mineral oil, pitch
and essence OF pepperment. Pitch is
employed for coloring, and stearin is
added to increas, bulk and weight.
The most important adulterant is
turpentine, which is so nearly related
chemically to the oil of lemon-both
being terpenes-that its presence as
an ingredient a hardly be detected
by analysis.

PRED that in the township of Nesbitt,

Heads and Datea.

1T makes no difference where the
date may be placed on one of our
coins" remarked the director of the
mint, in settling the dispute about
whether it is heads or tails for match
ing purposes. "As a matter of fact it
is heads wherever the head may be,
regardless OF date. Take the Column
bian half dollar, for instance, which
contains two dates, 1s9? and 1898 re-
spectively. Neither cuts the slightest
figure in determining where the head
of Columbus shall be placed any more
than was the case in the old time
shield on the diverse of nickels or FIVE
cent pieces turned out by the United

a head appears and the of the

4 CURIOUS INDUSTRY.
Grindias Rasors . Lucrative Profession
for some Thrifty souis.

I'VE get razor from all over the
country" said the proprietor Of a
Chicago razor grinding shop. ''The
razor gets worn down so that honing
will not suffice to put it in condition.
The razors get into the barber shops
and the BARRIERS send them to us
that is, they are sent by the out-of-
town BARRIERS. We have q list of our
regular customers in the city, and
IL men visit the shops to get the
raaors in need of repair.
"Only a large city can afford to
keep the appliances necessary for the
delicate work on finely tempered
razors. The principal reason for this
is the price Of grindstones and q thor
ough knowledge Of the craft. The
only good grindstones for use on razors
come from Germany. Ohio has grind.
stones, but they are inferior for razor
sharpening purposes to the German
article, no matter what Ohio manu-
facturers may say. The duty on
grindstones has been increased, al.
though we have none here that can
compete with the foreign article. We
now make as good razors here rs they
do IN England or Germany. but we
can't make them as cheap as we could
before the Wilson bill became q law.
Up to ten years ago it was thought
that the reason that we could not
temper our razors rs we'll as they do
it in England was because Of q pecu-
liar deficiency in our water. That
has been proved to be a fallacy, as
we now manufacture razors in Massa-
chusetts and In Newark fully as good
rs they are made in England. All
English razors, you know, are sent to
Germany to be conceived. That is be.
cause Of the superiority Of the Ger
man grindstones."

Don't TrIfie With Nature.

Writers of fiction should be careful
how they trine with natural science.
One popular novelist described with
much %eloquence a tropical full moon,
and represented as occurring imme-
diately afterward a total eclipse Of
the sun, an astronomical impossibility
at such a time. An American novel;
list represents n of his characters as
pointing to a certain star in the
course of conversation, and names as
the exact day of the incident a day
when the star is visible in no part Of
the earth.
