A foolish and Anticipated custom still

oath to do the right thing in the matter

eilly and barbarous as making sup
posed murderer criminal pass through
fire to show whether he was guilty or
innocent. The Bible is sacred book,
but after one single Biblical volume has
been used in a court for some Is or 20
years the outside Of it gets so grimy as
to belle any claim to sacredness SO far as
It is concerned. There is no disease in
the catalogue which q juror or witness

pie. The use of q Bible in this way u
enough to destroy respect for it.

LUMBER CUT.
Minneapolis Mills Will Cut 2E
per Cent Less Than
Last Year.

Minneapolis Journal: Lumbermen
of the district tributary to Minneap-
oils met in the office of Surveyor
General Brown, this morning, to
elect the log committee, which in
structs the officers of the Mississippi
& Rum River Boom company in
matters relating to the driving and
turning of logs; and to discuss mat
ters of interest to the lumbermen OF
this district.
The poll of logs represented shows
that 5sE, ZOO, 900 feet of logs had been
cut this winter. This figure is about
Isl, OOO, 900 feet less than it was last
winter. After lengthy con troversy
as to whether or not the ownership
of certain logs not strictly in the
district was sufficient to qualify the
owner to vote them in this meeting,
the $50 votes were unanimously cast
by the secretary for the reelection
of the old los committee. This COM
mittee ia constituted as follows: H.
&. Akeley, H. M. De Laittre, w. H

Then came the most significant
action .J +he meeting, a step which
fully sustains the Journals state-
ment that the Minneapolis lumber
men have agreed to reduce this years

committee was instructed toinstruct
the boom company to begin turning
logs to the different mills as soon az
practicable, that it shall cease turn.

Rise In Silver.

In January two years ago the price
of silver bullion was 70 cents an ounce.
Then it began to drop down, down. till
it reached fraction less than 80 cents.
At such a price the white metal could
no longer be mined profitably. During
1895 many Of the mines in Colorado
were closed, and the properties and
plants fell into decay.
But meantime, although silver min
ing was comparatively lido during
1896, silver exporting was not. As the
mining decreased, the exports, owing to
the unprecedentedly low price, became
heavier. These shipments continue.
During the month Of January they
amounted to over IS, 100000 more than
they did in January, 1896.
The shipments at last began to tell
on the price. The payment of the Chi
nese indemnity to Japan falls due May
z. It will be made in silver and will
amount to S35, 900, 900. Most Of this
silver was bought weeks ago by bankers
and spectators, who expected to make
a good thing in selling it again. I'm
doubtedly the prospect Of this payment.
which will all be made in silver, has
had considerable effect in bringing up
the price,
At any rate, the white metal may now
be considered to he on the rise. Febru-
airy, 1896, saw it reach 20 cents an
ounce again, the highest price since
January, 1894.
