A Criminal LAWYERS Dodge,

The late Colonel William B. Mann
was fond Of telling good story at the
expense Of Charles Brooke, the well.
known criminal lawyer Of New York
Colonel Mann, as district attorney, was
prosecuting a murder case in which
Mr.. Brooke was counsel for the de-
fense. Circumstantial evidence was
strong against the prisoner. The dis
trict attorney produced in evidence a
pair of boots Of. Scotch make, belong.
ing to the prisoner, which it was proven
fitted exactly the footprints left in the
snow by the murderer near the scene of
the crime. In submitting the boots in
evidence, Mr.. Mann called attention to
the several odd features of their con-
struction, and added that he had looked
all over town for a pair like them, but
without success. Mr.. Brooke asked
hat he be allowed to keep one Of the
boots over night. He thought he could
find a pair like them. The boot was
turned over to him, and at the opening
If court next day he produced another
pair Of boots identical in every way
with those belonging to the prisoner.
The man, however, was finally convict.
I'd. After it was all over Mann said to
Brooke: ''See here. Charlie, where did
You find those boots? l called at all the
big shops in town, but couldn't find
them." Neither could l." said Brooke,
$50 1 had them made over night."-

Long Minutes.

Explorers of the canyons of the
West may have daily adventures, if
they will. Colonel j. W. Powell re-
cords good number of his own. One,
brief, but long enough, is thus de
scribed:
In my anxiety to reach point
where 1 could see the roaring cataract
below, 1 went too far out upon the
wall, and could neither advance nor
retreat. ! stood with one foot on a
little projecting rock, and clung with
my hand fixed in creyice.
Finding myself caught, suspended
four hundred feet above the river, into
which must fall if my footing fails,
1 call for help.
The men come and pass me line,
but cannot let go of the rock long
enough to take hold of it. Then they
bring two or three of the largest oars.
All this takes time which seems very
precious to me; but at last they arrive.
The blade of one of the oars is pushed
into little crevice in the rock beyond
me in such manner that the men can
hold me pressed against the wall.
Then another is fixed in such way
that can step on it; and thus l anu
extricated.

Russia,s New Flag,

Considerable Importance is given by
European newspapers to an order
which they assert the Emperor of
Russia has recently signed, making a
flag of three horizontal bands, white,
blue ana red, with the white on top
and the red at the bottom, the national
flag of Russia. The white flag with
the blue St. Andrew S cross is retained
for the navy and the yellow flag with
the black eagles as tine imperial flag.
In France this is regarded as the
adoption o; the French tri-color and a
new assertion of the Franco-Russian
alliance. AS a matter of fact, how
ever, there is nothing new in the flag
described, for it has long been the
regular Russia mercantile flag.

The Making of Birch.oiI.

Connecticut farmers have found
comfortable side profit in gathering the
twigs, branches, and saplings of black
birch for the birch-oil distilleries. By
protecting the young growth, crops are
quickly raised. The bireh-brush has
brought from $1.5O to So a ton. The
birch-oil has sold at SIS to s. pound,
but now is less. One ton of birch
yields four pounds Of oil. Farmers can
make the oil themselves. The distiI-
lery may be any rough building, and
the machinery is inexpensive. The
birch-twigs, not over two inches in d.
ameter, are cut in lengths of five inches
and thrown into water tight tanks with
copper bottoms. in which are coils of
steam pipes. Three feet of water is
poured in, the tanks hernetically seal
ed, and steam turned into the pipes.
The water is kept boiling six hours,
and the steam passes into pipe which
runs in the form of a worm into barrel
IF cold water constantly renewed. The
steam is condensed in the worm and
the oil drips from the end of the pipe
into pail 1t was formerly clarified
from dull brown to light green after
this process. Now this is done by
ipeading heavy woolen blanket over
The birch-wood inside the tank, and the
ill drips out pure and ready for market.

The Oldest,

The Oldest rose bush in the world is
at Hildesheim, small city in Hanov-
er. Its roots are in the subsoil of
church in the cemetery, and although
the primitive stem has been dead for
a long time, the new stems have found
their way through crevice in the
wall, and cover almost the whole
church with their branches for q
height and width oe forty feet. Ac-
cording to tradition this rose tree was
planted by Charlemagne in o33, and
the church having been burnt down in
the eleventh century, the root contin-
ued to grow in the subsoil. A book
has been published recently giving the
history of this venerable rose tree,
which, casting tradition aside, is known
to be at least three hundred years old,
it having been mentioned in book
published in 1878, and in poem bear
ing the date of 1890.

Kentucky, divides it's vote, and it,
Democratic State committee has re
solved to contest it in it's entirety
not to change the grand result, but t,
expose the frauds by which the elec
ton there was literally bought will
money.
The large States voted for McKin
ley, the smaller ones for Bryan. Thi;
division of interests was fOreseen ant
considered at the constitutional con
vention of 1889, which formed our Fed
eral Constitution. 1t was then fearet
that the time might arrive when TIVE
or three or the largest States, like vi;
ginia or Massachusetts,, might contro
the result. To conciliate those VIII
thus objected, it was provided in tn
Constitution, that if choice of Presi
dent by electors should fail by reasol
of no one having clear majority th
States should vote as States in th
House of Representatives, the member
of the House from each State, large o
small. casting but one single vote. Til
conciliated the small States, retained
the federative idea, and had much t,
do with the acceptance of the Uniol
by them. 1t is not probable that sucl
n close division of all the States eve
occurred before.

F1YolleY Heart

This is the name of q new disease
thich has made its appearance In
srooklyn, N. Y, and the following Is a
newspaper account of the pathology
nd remedy for the disease-as given
" physician who was interviewed
N the subject. Trolley" heart is
ather an INDIGESTION that the nervous
ystem Is leetle out of gear than an
lilment by itself. All you need is to
lave yovr nervous system toned up
,it. You see, it comes from running the
rolley cars at full speed one minute
ind stopping them short next minute,
ind keeping up that alienation for a
ide Of two or three miles. The worst
time for it is the rush hours at night.
Then all the cars are behind time, and
he motDrmen are trying to catch up to
!he time table and everybody is in n
hurry to get home, and group of peo>
pie are standing on every corner wait
ing to get on the car. The motorman
ttarts the car at full speed, and the sud
len rush forward causes a shock to the
nervous centre about the pit of the.
ttomach. which makes sudden effort
o adapt itself to the situation. Then,
ust as soon as the nerves have been
regulated to top speed, they receive an
,Other wrench as the notorman stops
he car short to let more passengers on.
Thus there is sudden strain, sudden
elaXatiop, and then another wrench on
he nerves. It's like catching a boy by
he scruff of the neck and shaking the
ife out of him. Apply this quick alters
ition Of sudden starting and sudden
stopping to man whose nerves have
been at high tension at bis work all
lay, and you get wreck. The proper
way for a man to go home after his
work is calmly, evenly. smoothly, not
by starts and jerks. That's the way
trolley heart is started. Why, have a
patient who was the best husband and
father in the world until they put in
the trolley. After year of it he was
attacked with trolley heart, and when
he'd get home at night he'd be in such
4 state of nervous irritation that his
family couldn't stand him.

The Issue in 1900.

To those who believe that the cause
of silver is irretrievably lost; that in
terest will die out and that four years
will develop a new issue, bringing to
the front new men, the Chicago Dis
patch wishes to say no great reform
has ever yet been brought about by a
single campaign. 1t takes years to ed
ucate the people, especially on subject
that they have been in the habit of
considering abstruse.
1t took many years of patient and
ceaseless agitation to get a measure
through the Commons granting home
rule to Ireland, and then it was killed
by the Lords. Chattel slavery would
never have been abolished had not the
Garrisons, the Phillipses, the Lovejoys
and the Browns blazed the way. So
with every advance step in the history
of a people. There must be a van
guard, and this. vanguard is invariably
beaten back by the hosts of conserva-
tism. But it just as invariably rallies
for second onslaught.
There can be no other issue in the
canvass of 1900 than the issue which
divided parties this year. By them the
utter hollowness of Republican friend
ship for bimetallism will have been
fully exposed, and by them the creation
of prosperity by taxation will be =
proved impossibility. Prices will be
lower than they are to-day, and the
army Of the unemployed will be in
creased enormously, Trusts, combines
and monopolies, made arrogant by un-
restricted and unrestrained power, will
oppress, and men and women will suf-
fer as they have never suffered before.
Naturally, we will turn to the in
trepid leader who tried to avert these
evils during the summer and fall Of
1896, and he will again assail the cita-
del Of organized greed. The issue will
be free silver, and free silver will tri-
umph.

Chinese Tea PIckers.

The Chinese tea plant is a pretty ev.
ergreen from three to seven feet IN
height, covered in the winter months
with fragrant white or yellowish bios
SONS, resembling those Of the orange
or blackberry. The first crop Of ten
der, unexpanded leaf buds is gathered
In May or June, and is the finest quail
ity, being reserved for the use Of the
mandarins and other individuals of au-
thority and selling at $S pound.
They are gathered by hand with the
greatest care, and often with rough
sort of glove, while the pickers are for
hidden to partake of any fish or strong
smelling substance, for fear Of affect
ing the delicate flavor. Much depe nds
also upon the exact time of picking,
as a delay :f even twenty-four hours
may produce an inferior grade Of tea.
No less than five successive immers ions
may be made from these leaves, while
the other crops supply but one or two.
The second and principal harvest is in
early summer, the tea selling at $1.50
pound, and the third and last crop Is
gathered in the autumn. This is what
IS usually exported, SO that unless deal
lag with well known tea houses we sell
dom obtain the choicest brands.
Green tea is made by roasting the
caves over hot fires Immediately after
picking, but those intended COR black
tea are allowed to wilt and ferment for
several days in the open air until they
turn red, when they are fired" over
furnaces Of burning charcoal.
The Hysons are most generally used
Of the green teas, and, like other brands
of their class, are often stained by the
Chinese with various mineral dyes, such
rs indigo and gypsum. All but the best
teas are also subject to adulteration
from the mixture of other kinds Of
leaves or of exhausted tea leaves re-
colored with black lead or logwood.
The greatest tea drinkers are said to
be the Australians, and after them the
English, who consume four times as
much tea as coffee, while the people OF
the United States drink eight times a
much coffee as tea.
