to the proper Interpretation OF the Woro-
ing of an affidavit sworn to by Mrs. Craveh
substantiating the genulneness OF tne pen
ell will. These words appeared In the al

Fair made holographic will. l leIt II III
Mr.. Lloyd's possession, etc. MI; Oel III as
wanted to know what MI. L!oyua 10y unoer-
stood was meant by the WORD III.
The objection was this that the contents
of the affidavit had not been offered
in eyidence-it was simply physical OBJ
sect This view was eventually sustained
when did you first see the pencil will,
Mr.. Lloyd 2" asked Mr.. Delmas.
'Ir was on the Saturday before the 18th
of March" o-
THAT would be the 1oth OF March, 1880,
would it not?'
Yes, sir; believe so"
"Where was it that you saw the lnstru-
ment?'
at was at my office"
WHO else were present at the timer"
An objection was interposed to this line
of cross-examin a tion and it was shut off.
"Did you have the pencil will in your
possession at any timer"
II did. That was on the 10Th of March"
He went on to say that the will was
brought TO his office by Mr.. Roberts.
There were n number of others present to
see il. He was not sure but he thought
Charles Fair also came In. The witness
had the will photographed that afternoon
and 1t remained in his possession for
several days.
Questions as to whether Mr.. Lloyd knew
James G, Fair in his lifetime, whether he
was familiar with his handwriting and
whether the witness was an expert on
handwriting were all objected to and

reading: "One pound of tea, eleven hours; one cut of tobacco, two hours; one pound of crackers, two and one half hours: one pair best shoes, seventy hours" etc These labor checks con- stitute the community money, and the holder never exchanges them for legal tender unless he has occasion to go be- yond the limits of the colony Each member must work, when able, at his trade, if that best suits the needs of the community, but at anything else if there is no demand for his particular craft. Thus far a days work Is ten hours, but it is hoped to reduce this soon to eight with Saturday half-hol- iday, There is a kindergarten for the small children, while the older children are taught music, languages and indus- trial training. There are, of course, no financial inequalities and no social dis tinctions The colony has no religious side. Worship Is not prohibited, and Q few members attend outside churches, but the majority are agnostics, and the leaders of the movement believe that 1t would be impossible to establish a commonwealth of equality among peo- pie divided on theology.

4 WARM DAY AND 4 WARM TIME

fl WARM DAY AND 4 WARM TIME.
 Safely through the fiery Fifth, those
 who got through 1t safely can thank fully sing. The celebration of the ''ever-
 glorious in this region was on the
 whole a decided success, although it
 was marred by one fatal accident and
 several serious accidents. But the day
 was perfect in sunshine and heat, the
 parade was fine one the exercises on the Green in the afternoon were inter-
 esting and impressive and the fireworks
 in the evening were a fitting close to a
 warm and joyous time. Though the
 crowds were great In the center of the
 city at times during the day and even ing everybody was good-natured, and there was very little drunkenness ob- servabie. There was more noise than there was room for, and many who trembled at the recklessness with which the powder packages were thrown around were glad when the day was over. There was not as much damage from fire as there might have been and as there was likely to be.
 So has gloriously gone another cele- bration of our independence. Now to discover who is really the boss.

Leo XIII, then Invited the king to en- ter his private room, accompanied by Archbishop Stonor, who acted as inter- preter between the king and the Pope. The conversation lasted twenty min utes. Then Leo XIII accompanied the king to the door, where the latter, bow ing down, kissed the Pope's hand once more, and the young king, speaking in English to Archbishop Stonor, begged him to interpret to the Pope the desire he had to receive a blessing from Leo XIII, which was given him, Then the royal visitor his son and suite, proceed ed to the apartments of Cardinal Ram polla, secretary of state where they were received in state and with special courtesy, and where a rather lengthy conversation passed between them.
 The king was greatly grati1ed, and asked that each one present at his en- trance and exit from the Vatican should furnish him with their names, in order that he might supply them with decora- tions of the White Elephant.

COURIER TUESDAY,

ing Experiments made in the labora- tories of Sibley college show that the usual figures for dense smoke per ton or fuel employed ranged from 10 to l2 pounds of soot; of the latter, about one half was carbon, the remainder prin- cipally unconsumed hydrocarbons, 10 to l5 per cent of ash, and if collected out side of the furnace, perhaps ? per cent, or moisture. It was found that no smoke was ever produced in an atmos- phere of oxygen. With restricted air supply the maximum just stated was obtainable; but low temperature com bustion and restricted oxygen supply appeared to be the two main conditions favoring smoke production. Again, the composition of soot was found often to be substantially that of the coal from which it was produced. A reduction of the proportion of smoke made ef- fleets a reduction correspondingly and perhaps approximately in the per- centage of carbon contained in the soot. Thus, coal used in St. Louis was found to contain 50 per cent. carbon and 36 per cent. hydrocarbon, while it's smoke contained 25 per cent. carbon and 10 per cent. hydrocarbon. Where no hy- drocarbons exist, smoke cannot be pro- duced by any fuel.

4 SOCIALIST COLONY.

The socialist colony in Tennessee which is starting the Ruskin College of New Economy has not attracted much attention hitherto, but if it con- tinues to prosper it will attract more attention that it has attracted. It has only been in existence three years, but 1t has seventy-four families, a total population of 213 and claims to have increased its joint holdings from the $500 contributed by each head of a fam fly to a total of $SO,0OO. The planning of the colony was the work of a social
 ist enthusiast named Wayland, who conducted little newspaper in Greens burg, Indiana, and who gave his paper and all else he had to the cause. He found people ready to go with him, and bought a tract of land in Tennessee. His was poor bargain. however, and soon after the colony was established more fertile site was obtained. Since then accessions to the colony have been
