Purity ON the Bench.

M. Editor. and Readers of The Journal:
As one of the multitude / continue
my interest in the forthcoming judi
cial election. Purity, vigor and indie
pendence on the bench are crying
needs of the day. We may sing the
praises of freedom and sovereignty, of
a government by the people for tie
people. until this song as a syIen
browns all fears, but the fact remains
that the laws of this country are not
made and administered by the people.
There is a governing class, small
minority 1.-THE lawyers) from which
Judges per force are selected, who dc
this. much as is done in all civilized
countries.
The Judge need not necessarily be
corrupt. or weak, or unclean, but they
have been, and thus on behalf Of the
multitude who pay full share of the
expense, and suffer full share Of the
penalties of laws, often unfaithfully
administered, / continue my plea OF
two weeks ago for purity on the bench
and still take pleasure in pressing the
fitness of Mr.. Helms. as from the
mothers breast up his history anc
garb emits no stencil of cast-off-folly-
clean, and dear, and ready, without
reformation.
Free passes, and free midnights
adorned with cards, rum and Other
stupefying influences should be nix
henceforth. For forty-six years We
have had various judges, with varying
qualities of fitness and unfitness, but
none, no, not one up to our ideal.
1 do not write so much in complaint
Of this governing class; they are about
like other folks, /. e., not all bad, but
to stir up the Indifferent, common
people, amongst whom my walk ant
station is. to rise up and attend indie
pendently to their part of the govern
ing. ,.

Star Measurements.

In paper published in The Astro- nomische Naehrichten Dr. See shows how, by very ready method, determi- nation may be made of the absolute di- mansions of the orbits of bright and rapidly revolving binary stars by single spechoscopic measures of the motions in the line of sight of the component stars, and from the dimensions and oth- CT known data of the orbits the actual masses of the stars and their distances from the earth can be easily calculated. But perhaps the most important result claimed for this method is the means t furnishes of testing the question whether the Newtonian law of gravitation ap. plies to stellar systems as we'll as to the solar system. Dr. See shows the manner in which may be calculated the motion in the line of sight in all parts of the binary orbit, these calculations being based upon the law of gravitation and a single spectroscopic measure If such measures be continued upon q number of pairs while the stars complete their revolutions, and the computed and ob- served motions in the line of sight agree throughout, within reasonable limits of error, it will be strong proof of the uni versatility of the Newtonian law.

yaricolored Plate Glass.

In Le Moniteur de Ia Ceramique ct de Ia Verreries an account is given of a new and attractive product, glass plate of different colors-the manufac- ture of which is as follows: Upon ta- ble provided with several rolls cer- tain quantity of glass is poured, which is leyeled to the desired thickness ei- ther by moving the table or the lower roll. Upon this plate, but before 1t has cooled off, another quantity of glass is poured, which, 1eyeled with its re- spective roll, forms a second layer ad- herring perfectly to the first. If the two glass substances are of different colors, the plate obtained consists of glass of two colors, one upon the other, and a plate of more colors can be produced in the same way By molding or pressing, letters or designs of any shape or di- mensions can be- represented, the 1m- .pression being accomplished either by the fiattening roll or another one run ming behind it, or, still better, by the vertical pressure of an engraved plate, or with cast designs and inscription.

THE END.
 RestigoucIae Salmon.

4 novel question has been raised in Forest and Stream which is of interest to the fishermen who fish in artifcially stocked waters. For some reason or other fisherman got the notion that the salmon in the Restigouche river were not so game now as in past years. Another of the Restigouche fishers was of the same mind. If there is anything the sportsman angler does not want and will not have if he can help it, it is the deterioration of the fighting quail ties of his fish. He would like to have the fish go into training if possible.
 What the fishermen want to know is what is the matter with the Restigouche salmon? It appears that the stream has been stocked to considerable extent during late years, and if this stocking has taken the nerve out of the salmon every one who is interested i'll fish wants to know the reason why, and, more yet, the remedy. It is well known that the hand reared English pheasants are not to be compared with wild American ruffed grouse ill any particular. If the artificial propagation of fishes is going to result in taking the fight out of American game fish, 1t will be sad thing to the minds of men who fish for fun, and not for profit.

gone home l., my mother? Would he do anything rash?i'
 Spurred hy the mental excitation of that anxious thought, the imp who SUD- piled her 'second sight, again got in his evil work, and Flcssy had a most appalling glimpse. She saw Algernon at home, seated before table, writing a letter-doubtless his farewell to her with revolver lying at his elbow. That it was his horrible purpose to blow out his brains as soon as he had finished the letter she did not doubt. The agony of that thought lent wings to her feet. She no longer walked. She ran, she flew, and, reaching home, dashed in and up stairs, where she found her hus- band exactly as the vision had shown him to her. Breathiessly she sprang for ward and seized the pistol which she had never before imagined she would dare to touch
 'Hellof' exclaimed Algernon, look ing up with little surprise ssGot back already?''
 She gasped and panted. 'sWhat are you writing? What were you going to do with that pistol?''
 Brother Bill has written from Butte asking me to send him q good revolver. 1t seems to be style out there to wear 'em. I have no use for mine, so Pm go- ing to let him have it and was writing to tell li1n 50. ''
 And you were not going to shoot yourself?"
 Well, I rather guess not. Why should I?''
 And that letter is not really an eter- nal farewell to me?''
 A farewell to you-when expected you back from your mothers in time for dinner?''
 "Oh, Algy," she cried, her eyes fill ing with tears of happiness, "I've been such fool. Then she went on and told him all about it and was duly penitent and full of promises that she would never suspect him, never be jeal- ous, and never trust her 'tsecond sight, any more.

THE DAWES COMMISSION.
It Is Believed It Will Make Its Final
 Report In December.


 WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-The Dawes Indian commission is steadily at work in the Indian Territory and is expected to complete it's labors by December. Indi- ans are still filing applications for mem bership in fhe tribes and have until Sept. 10 for doing this.
 General Frank c. Armstrong. ex- assistant commissioner of Indian affairs. and a member of the commission, is in Washington for 8 few days. He says the prospects for an early and satisfac- tory conclusion of negotiations with the indians for reorganization of their government through division of their lands in severalty and other measures was never more favorable than now. Indians. he says, are beginning to un- derstand to some extent that it is to thelr interest to allow reformatory measures to be carried out, and many of those who will not concede this realize that congress intends taking prompt &C., ton If the commission is not successful in closing the long pending matter. The Indians believe they will fare bet ter at the hands of the commission than by the acts of congress. With this growing sentiment General Armstrong expresses the belief that at the coming sessions of the tribal councils some definite steps will be taken.

ENGLAND IS SHAKEN.
Johnny Bulls Island Has
An Attack of Ague.
STREETS OF HEREFORD ARE ABLAZE
Even a Noble Earl Gets SHAKEN Out OF
His Little Bed, just Like
Common Folks.

LONDON, Dec. 17.-An earthquake, the
most violent ever experienced in this
country, has shaken every shire from,
London to the Welsh coast. The sub
terraneous disturbance was first noticed
about 3 80 this morning, and lasted from
four to five seconds. At many points
two distinct shocks were experienced.
The most severe shocks were felt at
Chelten, Ledbury and Deanforest.
The earthshaking was accompanied by
a loud rushing sound. Buildings were
violently shaken, furniture shifted,
doors thrown open, pictures and other
ornaments upset. The Inhabitants were
panic-stricken and fed from their
houses.
The earthquake also visited Birming-
ham and various points in Shropshire,
and was violent in Worcester and the
country surrounding that city.
The shocks were followed by a tremor
of the earth. The greatest alarm pre-
vailed everywhere. Chimneys were
overthrown, windows, ETC.. smashed.
At some points on the country road Per-
sons were thrown down; a number of
people were thrown out of their beds.
Hereford cathedral was injured. The
dull, rum bling beneath the earth's sur
face was followed by two loud crashes
and a terrible lifting and rocking.
The panic at Hereford was so great
that one woman died from fright. Peo-
pie rushed wildly into the streets.
Many chimneys fell crashing into the
thoroughfares. All the pinnacles of ST.
Nicholas church toppled over and a
part of the pinnacle of the cathedral
fell.
At Liverpool the earthquake was. pre-
ceded by heavy thunder and fearful
hail storm. In London the earthquake
was only slightly felt.
At Bridgennorth, near Shrewsbury,
before the disturbance, the streets sud-
denly seemed to be On fire, and there
was violent rise accompanied by a
shaking of the earth. People going
abroad in that vicinity say they were
unable to walk. owing to the vibrations.
There was great excitement among the
people about Poole. who thought the
end of the world had come.
Honses shook for nearly a minute at
Bristol and Clifton, causing much alarm.
railroad employees at Crewe report that
they felt the rails oscillate. At Ever
sham the shock was followed by bril-
liant light in the sky.
Tuesday there was sudden change
from mild weather to severe frost, fol-
lowed by dense foGs and snow on
Wednesday.
In the mining districts it was first
thought the shocks were the results oi
colliery explosions. The disturbance
was violent at Warwick Castle. The
Earl of Warwick felt his bed lifted as
though by some force beneath it, and the
furniture in the room shifted.
