mated. has not been sick and has made
no confession. Heaven aud earth

HAVE YOU NOTICED THE LAMPS.A.
IN OUR WINDOW :?

You may think they are all Roch- esters, but the most of them are not. They are Plume & Atwoods' lamps with the BELGIUM BURNER. You will notice that the stands are made of metal and that all are of artistic de- sign, which gives the purchaser a lamp of durability. and beauty. But the greatest
 point about these lamps is the burner, which has q much smaller wick, burn ing 40 per cent less oil and at the same time giving 20 per cent stronger light than other lamps. This means the saving of the price of a lamp in a sea- son in the burning of oil. We lack space here to tell you all about these lamps and so invite you to call and look the line over and listen to the story of the Belgium burner.

Hayden went away. At that time the firm owned two lots on West Wash ington street, and the Cougar mine in the Tiger mining district. It was ar ranged that in the absence of Hayden, Bond should receive b. side his share of the profits of the firm, S15 a month. Hayden early last year was accident ally drowned at Vallejo, Cal. Bond wants a sale of the property of the firm, his share of it, his salary under the agreement, after which the re- mainder is to be divided among the heirs.

 THE CROWD EXCUSED. There was nothing in the district court Nes- terday but the case of Costello vs. Cos tello, for separate maintenance A large crowd had gathered in the rope of having something spicy, but Juoge Street, at his own instance. 6eo .6ed that the case was really the business of nobody but the litisan's, the law yers and the court officials. wh1 were required to be present. For the rest to stay would be a sinful waste of time and the gratifica,ion of a morbid and unhealthy curiosity. He accordingly excused the audience and stationed a baiiff outside the 1oor to divert travel in other directions. The crowd would have been disappointed ii i5 stayed, for nothing was said CT done to bring a blush to the cheek of he young ger son.
