Legal te~chniCalitieS are great things
The word OF a person who has been
convicted of a felony is not received
in Court. Ia the DavidsOn-BrOWn
case in San Francisco the prosecution
dug mp Mrs. Davidson's r cord. She
hal been arrested in Massachusetts
u swindling and served her term n
all. This revelation would seem to
DISPOSE Of Mrs. Davidson, but her
lawyer was equal to the emergency
He showed that the sort Of swindling
hat Mrs. Davidson was imprisoned
for was not a felony in Massachusetts.
This being the cas Mrs. DavidsOn's
word is all right and she becomes a
competent witness. The law is a great
thing il some States.
If Congress was not run by the
agents Of the gold syndicate it would
defeat Mr.. Reeds pet scheme and pass
an act prohibiting the Government
from issuing any bonds. 1t is
claimed hat the Dingley Tariff bill
will provide sufficient revenu for the
support Of the Government, and if it
does why issue more bonds Is Cor
gress simply an assemblage Of the re-
gents Of the gold syndicate?

Wire Tapping Scandal.

There is another wire tapping sean.
dial in San Francisco. The officials Of
the Pacific Coast Jockey Club charge
that the Western Union wire from
Ingleside, which is least by the club
has been systematically tapped and
the results of the c. given to all
the pool rooms in town at the conclu-
sion Of each race. Discharged oper-
ators are suspected Of tapping the
wires and Of maintaining an organ
lied peanut telegraph service" In
its fight against the downtown pool
rooms the racing management has
closed the telegraph office at the track
and now no offices on the Coast will
be able to get the racing results from
the track.

M. D. Howell, the Stockton coun
terfeiter, has escaped justice He had
$4,000 to fight with and hired per-
Jurers to acquit him. Now the Gov
eminent is after the perjurers and
they will find hat while they had
Howells money behind them to COM
nit perjury, they will not have any
financial assistance from him in their
own trials. Howell will be enjoying
his liberty and laughing at his dupes
who will go to the .p~enitentiary.

The children's mother. who was in
chat state of lnvincible Ignorance"
which is the normal condition of lower
class Mexicans, objected strongly, it is
true, to this American interference; but
Elizabeth always had her way with
everybody. Nine. Sandoval, as the
Spooners called her, claimed that she
could not understand one word of Eng
lish, yet she never failed 10 comprehend
Lizzie's wishes-in whatever language
expressed-and contented herself with
complying silently, or replying exclu-
sively in Spanish.
In spite of Elizabe as idea that this
work sprang from purely philanthropic
motives, her interest had come gradually
to center in one child-the little Agaplta.
Anita, the only girl, was sickly and
rather dull; the baby was TOO young TO
be interesting, and the eldest boy was a
cripple. But Agapita was beautiful; no
body could deny that. And then, being
the pet at home, he had such cunning
confident baby ways. He won upon
Elizabeth's affections till she took al
most complete charge Of him much to
his mothers dismay), providing nearly
all rs clothing, and keeping him at the
ranch house with her for days together.

reason the sleeves were more generous.

Snoredly. 81 know you pretty we'll by

'You mean I'm selfish" answered
Lizzie; does this look much Ike it?

Lizzie burst out crying. This was the
persecution she had expected, the per-
secut.on which those nob,er and more
generous than their fellow-creatures
have always received. She thought Of
how st. Elizabeth was turned out with
her little children in the snow.

there was a vest and cascade of embroid-
cred mousseline de sole brought down

over them smaller lappels Of white satin

JACKETS FOR ALL.
I can say with the utmost confidence
and without fear of being contradicted
a month from now, that the winter
coats will be lease fronted. The fall
ones are even mere than this. They are
straight all around. The prevailing
mode for the little coat which you take
with you these first cool evenings TO slip
on is little satin coat, lined with taffeta
of a brilliant color. You can have q
russell coat lined with rose, q green one
lined with pink, black one lined with
helitrope or black and white. The

combined with a color.
One marvellously pretty little coat is
black silk one, with white satin cuffs
and collar. A piping Of rose satin ex-
tends around the coat, and the seams are
strapped with it. The buttons are in
rose tints. and the mousselne de sole
around the neck is rose color. This
may be a perishable little affair, but It
is the ideal. And from the ideal all
others are fashioned.
For a nice little fall coat for home
wear | would suggest a covert cloth of
tan lined with shell pink taffeta. If a
thin little coat is wanted, and an mex
pensive one, the lining need not extend
further than a strip down the front and
at the wrists. The buttons can be white
rearl ones of very large size, and for the
touch of black let there be a turnover
collar and cuffs of black taffeta. That is
a dressy little garment Lace, notice.

made. He could not find ink that suited

It certainly is disheartcning to pa
tent to find that the treatment he is
given for disease is more disastrous
than the disease itself. Such is the
case, however, with the usual treat
ment given for diseases of the blood.
Notwithstanding the great progress
made in many branches of medicine,
the doctors have failed absolutely to
find a successful treatment for blood
poison, and the many diseases having
their origin in the blood. They give
but one kind of medicine, they know
but one treatment, and whether in
the form of powder, pill or liquid, the
Doctors prescription is always the
same-potash or mercury.
Too much cannot be said of the harm
full and disastrous effectsof these drugs.
The doctors are unable to rid the sys-
tenn of the poison, and direct their
efforts toward covering up the symp-
toms from view. There is but one eff
feet to be obtained from potash and
nercury-they bottle up the poison
and dry it up In the system, but It
must be remembered that they dry up
| the marrow in the bones at the same
| time, gradually consuming the vital
ity. Those disfiguring copper-colorcd
! splotches are but indications OF worse
| results to follow. No sooner has the

powerful drug than that supplcness
and elasticity of the joints gives way

A PRACTICAL GENIUS.
WILLIAM MORRIS, POET, PRINTER AND
BlBLlOPHlLE.

Always a Poet and Sometime an Artist,
Age of Tifty-four-His Revival of Old
style Typography Socialistic Theories.
A many sided man is William Nor
ris. Probably no man in England has
such diverse acquaintance as he. To
the wealthy aristocrats he is known as
the queer looking shopkeeper at whose
establishment in Oxford street, London,
may be found wonderfully beautiful and
vastly expensive tapestries, wall papers
and other luxuries of house decoration.
An extensive literary world recognizes
him as poet of rare originality, and the
enc who was most worthy to occupy the
place left vacant by Tennyson.
A local and somewhat limited COM
munity of London socialists recognizes
him as powerful and enthusiastic ally
ever ready to do his share of the work
along with the rank and file.
A still more limited class of biblio-
philes, representatives, of which are to
be found in all the odd corners of the
earth, know William Morris as the
maker of elegant books, the publisher of
editions de luxe of fabulous price and
the reviver Of the cart preventative.
And, while all these varying classes
know Morris SO we'll, they have nothing
in common with each other. The So
cialists, for instance hardly realize the
existence of the bibliophiles, and the
latter studiously ignore the poets and
litterateurs of today.
Yet, although the character of Will
liam Morris has SO many faces, to the
outward appearance he is always the
same Whether he is being entertained
at dinner by some wealthy customer,
being lionized at some swell literary
gathering or addressing crowd OF
workingmen of Sunday morning in
the streets Of the east end, his stout,
sturdy frame is always clad in the self
