DECISION IN FAVOR OF QUAY.


Judge Rules GU, Certain Evidence in the
Trial Of the ex-senator
PHILADELPHIA. April l1.-Meyer Gold
smith, the commonwealth expert ac-
countant, was on the stand all day in
the trial OF Senator Quay. making state
ments OF facts that are apparently dam
aging to the defendants side Of the Case.
goldsmith Is the main witness for the
prosecution and II is through him that
all OF the documentary evidence is to be
presented. The witness has examined the
banks books thoroughly, and he came
into court this morning with number
OF typewriter sheets containing figures
that he gathered from the various books
relating mainly to the deposit Of the
state treasurer and the accounts OF Sen
ator Quay He swore to the correctness
OF his work and then the district attorney
formally offered the paper in evidence.
This was objected to by the defense, on
the ground that such paper is not les
tlmony. 1t was insisted that the books
themselves should be placed before the
witness and his statements uttered from
what he saw entered in them. The Judge
decided in favor of the defense thus
giving that side the first piece OF COM
fort It has experienced since the TRIAL
began,
Goldsmlth's statement showed Senator
Quay was loaned $l4iS2S,4S, His trans
actions In stocks during 1894 and 1895 were
included in this portion, the purchases
for his account aggregatlng $5OOSO9 and
the sales credited being $3.50 60. No pay
ment of interest by Senator Quay on
these transactions is shown by the books.
At different periods between October 81,
1898, and october 81, 1895, the states de-

Washington Oct. 9.-The report
CT the Commissioner of Indian At
fairs for the year ending JUMBO,
1899, has been practically completed
and is now in the hands of the
government printer. 1t will be out
within the course of the next two
weeks, the delay being occasioned
by changes which will be made in
the proof sheets. In his report the
commissioner recommends the es-
tablishment of a territorial form of
government for Indian Territory by
congress and practically embodies
the recommendation heretofore
published of Special Agent Wright.
Liberal appropriations are recon-
mended for the Dawes and townsite
commissions IN order that the work
incident to the establishment OF
territorial government may be COM
pleted at an early date. A deficit
will occur in the money available
for the expenses of the townsite
commissioners, but it is expected
that they will continue their work
during the month of November and
the first part of December, when an
urgency appropriation will be asked
as soon as congress meets. BY
strict economy it is expected that
the appropriation for the Dawes
commission will be sufficient to meet
expenses until June 80, next, al
though the expenses thus far this
year have been far in excess of the
amount anticipated.

ton of the Masonic temple, now
building, yesterday put three ne
groes, imported from Winfield, Kan.
to work, and the white masons and
cutters working in the city, about
thirty in all, put down. their tools.
Three or four negroes at work on
other buildings were discharged in
response to the demand of the strik-
ers, and the white workmen returned,
but Vandenburg refused to recognize
any color line in the work on the
Masonic temple. AS a result fifteen
masons and nine cutters are still out.
The strikers say they will allow no
white men to work on the temple as
long as negroes are retained.

How Children Lose Eyesight.

DR.. Seidelmann, OF the eye hospital at
the University Of Breslau, has compiled
from the books of the institution 2333
cases of injury to the eyes in children
that resulted in blindness He finds that
more than twenty per cent. of the acct
dents were caused by carelessness. The
objects with which injuries were in
tlicted at play We're as follows: Knives,
seven cases; forks, three cases; scissors,
four cases; lights, one case; slate pencils,
two cases; cartridges, seven cases; and
powder, three cases. About twelve
per cent of the injuries We're inflicted on
companions by children during moments
of anger. Blows with the fist caused
ten cases; stones, two cases; sticks, two
cases; and whips, five cases. "This
record of INJURIES says the doctor, 81
consider in reality record of sins.
Nearly one hundred cases of blindness
could have been prevented, as they had
their origin in playfulness, in thought
lessness, in malice, or roughness. ~ He

Old Weather Signs.
Savings that Have Been Believed for
Years.

Years.
Thunder on Sunday is considered by the
weather. wise the sign of the death OF a
great man; on Monday, the death of a
woman; on Tuesday, if in early summer
it foretells an abundance of grain; on
Wednesday, warfare is threatened; on
Thursday, an abundance of sheep and corn
the farmers may reckon upon; on Friday,
some great man will be murdered; on Sat
urday, general pestilence and great NOR
tality.
Friday weather shows what may be ex-
pected on the following Sunday; that is, if
it rains on Friday noon, then it will rain
on Sunday, but if Friday be clear, then Sun
day will be fine as well.
The twelve days Immediately following
Christmas denote the weather for the com
ing twelve months, one day for a month.
The day of the month the first snow storm
appears indicates the number OF snow
storms the winter will bring. For exam
Pile, the first snow storm comes on Novem-
Der 29--look out, then, for twenty nine
snow storms.
The. is an old saying-which originated
perhaps, for the benefit of school children
that there is only one Saturday in the
year without sun during some portion of
the day.

after midnight the weather win improve.

If the wind S still.
If the full moon shall rise red, expect
wind.

A light yellow sky at sunset presages
wind.
When you see northern lights YOU may
expect cold weather.
Hazy weather is thought to prognosti-
cate frost in winter, snow in spring, fair
weather in summer and rain in autumn.
Storms that clear in the night will be
followed by a rain storm.
Three foggy mornings will surely be fol-
lowed by a rain storm.
If the ice on the tree mets and runs off
rain will come next; while if the wind
cracks off the ice snow will follow.
When the leaves of trees show their I'M
der side there will be rain.
When the perfume of flowers or the
odor of fruit is unusually noticed rain may
I be expected.
When the sky is full of stars expect
rain.
If cat washes herself calmly and
smoothly the weather will be fair If she
washes against the grain take your
macintosh with you. If she lies with
her back to the fire there will be a squall.
Cats with their tails up and hair appar-
emily electrified indicate approaching

1t is said that Rudyard kipling and En-
nest Seton Thompson met last winter and
spent an evening telling each other ami
NAL stories. The Interpreter OF the Jun
gle wanted the story of grizzly bear. Mr.
Thompson had one ready for him. 1t took
an hour to tell it. When he had finished,
Mr.. Kipling exclaimed, That's fine,
Thompson; why don't you write it?' Mr..
Thompson has since writtenit, under the
title of "The Biography of Grizzly"
and its publication will be begun in the
November number of The Century Maya
zine. 1t is the first long story by the au-
thor of ''Wild Animals | Have Known"

rush of periodicals continues, the latest
being the Club Woman S Magazine, edited
by Mrs. Ada Brown Talbot, whose hus-
band is the publisher and business man
ager. There are million or more club
women in this country, and hence the Tai
bots believe that such an organ is requir
ed. 1t may be mentioned that most of the
above mentioned clubs are under the
National Federation of Woman's clubs,
which began nine years ago. 1t then had
elghty-two clubs, but at present the mem
bership includes ?, PCS, many of which
have won distinction for ability and use

Club Woman's Magazine ought to be a
success. Apropos of periodicals, Ida NJ.

led to this important position. Another
new periodical is the projected Church

its scope.
