RIGHT-HANDED PEoPLE-w. Nee, City.
"Why are most people right-handed?" was an
swered some years ago by an American
physician who had made study of children
and their habits. He said: Infants use both
hands until they begin to try to speak. The
motor functions are contained on the right
side of the body and the first ight-hand ed
motions are expressive motions, tending to
help out speech. AS speech grows SO does
right-haudedness."

But because they did so it would be as

TRAVELS or 4 DIAMOND.

Oeosy of . Pns1e SsWslsg's Experience WITH
. vssy Bias 0eons.
Some years ago Paris jeweler told .
story Of one diamond which he'd passed
over his counter no less than IL times.
Il was beautiful stone Of nsarly four
carats, Of perfect color end luster, but
easily identified BY means Of small
feather" in the tip Of the lowest part.
He bought Il from en- East India dealer
and had II set In . ring. It was sold to q
countess in 1859, Just before the out.
break Of the Franco-P Prussian war. Tho
countess died in few weeks, and the
ring was worn by her husband. He was
killed in the siege Of Paris, and few
days after his death the ring was
brought in the ring and sold It to the
mon soldier. He was arrested, and the
ring was sent to the family Of the dead
count. Before the siege ended they
brought in the ding and sold II to the
dealer in order to procure money to
buy food. Directly after the siege it
passed into the hands Of an English
tourist who visited the city 70 get a
look st the ruin wrought BY the com-
munists, and 1 Year later back came the
stone from the Indian buyer Of the firm,
who, on being written to and desired to
tell h2w he got It, stated that It had
been the property Of an English tourist
hunter who was killed by tiger and
his friends sold the ring toget means to
send the body home. The stone was re-
set, and soon found q purchaser in a
prominent member of the demi-monde,
who not long afterward was murdered
in her room. Among the articles taken
by the murderer was the ring, and the
firm began to wonder how soon It would
turn up. They had not long to wait, for
all their people had by this time learned
about the stone, and were on the look
out for it. After six months it was found
in the showcase Of a jeweler in London,
who had bought it from . Arm in
Amsterdam. It was bought by the
Paris agent, and sent back to be started
afresh on it's travels. It was purchased
again by woman of the town, who, six
weeks later, was drawn out Of the Seine
with the gem on her finger, and, by
strange coincidence, it was offered to
the firm that sold it by the police agents,
the court having Jurisdiction having
ordered it to be sold. And 30 II went
from hand to hand, attended with mis-
fortune at every change and usually
bringing death to the possessor. La
borers in the Golconda mines used to
say that when a stone was baptized in
blood when first taken from the earth
it caused the shedding Of blood where
ever it went, and the story of one
such ill-omened gem goes far to confirm
belief in such a observation-disclosures

lieutenant in the fight for free silver, left
today for st. Louis. 1--WE will make the
fight for silver said Senator Dubois last
night, 'in the committee on resolutions
and on the floor of the convention We
believe that a majority of the Republicans
of the country believe in the coinage Of
silver on the same terms with gold. There
can be no compromise of the issue 1t is
plain and clear cut. We will battle for
our convictions TO the bitter end. If the
majority is against us we will act as our

TELLER INTERVIEWED.
The Colorado Senator Predicts a
Complete Bout for Silver.
STRONG INTIMATION OF A BOLT

While the Senator Refuses TO Admit That
Colorado's Delegates VIII Leave the Con-
vention, He Points to His Declaration to
Colorado Republicans.
CINCINNATI, June Ex-senator and Mrs
Teller remained here last night while en-
route from Washington to st. Louis.
They resumed their journey today. Sena.
tor Teller was interviewed by The En-
quirer, the free silver organ, as follows:
"What do you think the Republicans
will do at st, Louis, senatorY'
Il think that Mckinley will be the
nominee on gold standard platform"
I'm that event what will you dof'
81 do not wish to make any statement
further than that which is already on
record. When the Republican state con
vention of Colorado was in session | tele-
graphed them that did not desire to &C
to st. Louis, but that if my party sent
me l would not support a gold standard
candidatSf for president on gold standard
platform or on n platform of doubtful i'm.
port, or in other words n straddle. Not
only did the convention elect me, but in
structed the other delegates to be governed
by my action"
Then you will bolt the conventionW
81 did not say anything about that, but
my declaration TO the Republicans of Col.
orado is on record, and you can draw what
ever conclusion you please from that"
Twill any of the other silver senators
from the west refuse to support gold
gold standard man?"
Certainly"
"You have no idea that Senator Carter
of Montana, chairman of the Republican
national committee, will refuse to support
the ticket under such circumstancesW
Yes he will, and 50 will Dubois, Mantle
and Cannon"
"Do you believe tine Democrats will &c
for silverg"
1T looks very strongly that way"
"Would you support free silver Demo
crat as against u gold Republican,
Really l do not wish to be interviewed
on that point now. l go to st. Louis as 1
Republican, representing the Republican
of my state The Republican party has no
as yet put itself on record as a gold stand
ard party and until that time / havt
nothing TO say further than my record be
fore the Colorado state convention"
The inevitable conclusion drawn from
the talk with Senator Teller is that h
will bolt if a gold standard ticket ant
! platform is named. He was asked further
"What figure will the tariff question
cut in the campaign"
| mot much. All the tariff in the worlC
won't help this country without the fre
