The new church. About forty of the

Dear Aunt Busy.
I never used TO read The IntermOun-

won't say any more this time. Goodbye,

sapphires Not All nIue.

at is commonly believed that the
sapphire is known only as a gem of
rich velvety blue in color" observed an
experienced dealer in precious stones
to the writer the other day. "As
matter of fact, the sapphire occurs in
various hues. In Ceylon, for instance,
where the finest specimens of this gem
are found. it ranges from the soft vel
vety blue TO the peacock blue, gradu-
ated in S'e latter to an almost faultless
white. II also occurs in whites. greens
and yellows. the latter shade being
known as the oriental topaz and the
green the oriental emerald.
"The white sapphlres are often found
clouded or streaked with blue. so that
many specimens are cut which are
white when looked at transversely, but
having bit of fine blue tint on the un-
der point. Then there is the red sap
phire, or Ceylon ruby. 1t is valued as
highly as the finest Burmese rubies.
Those most highly priced are of rich
pigeon blood or rose red color.
"Some very fine sapphlres have been
found i'm Montana during the past ten
years. The American gems are light
blue, blue green, green and pink, but
the deep blue and red stones. which are
chiefly in demand as jewels, have SC
far never been discovered In any part
Of this country. ."-Washington Star.

mo nnorter VIC Gnme.

A Rockland young man is the owner
OF a smart rooster and has long enter
tanned suspicion that the bird might
have inherited gamy characteristics
from some long forgotten ancestor. To
apply this theory in an actual test he
went home the other night, surrepti-
tiously conveyed the parlor mirror into
the hen pen and held it before the gaze
of the wondering rooster.
The young man was not kept long in
suspense as to the birds lighting quail
tiles. After a brief. incredulous glance
at the proud reflection in the glass the
rooster descended upon the object with
spurs set and wrath cleaning from
each beadlike eye. There were a crash,
a smash and clatter, and when the
dust and feathers cleared away the
young sportsman stood. dismayed
spectator, in the center of a pile of
ruins formed of broken mirror, Stats
and pulverized plate glass.
lie is now satisfied with the rooster
but how he squared himself about the
broken mirror is not known.-BangoI

DIFFIcuLrIEs oF IDENTIFICATION

A strange case of the mistakes into
which professional zeal may lead
man. and the wonderful effect il has on
his mind, caused Paul Taylor to adj
dress some strong remarks to a. con-
stable. An individual appeared in the
dock at Southwark, and when he was
asked 10 plead TO a charge of wilfully
breaking some iron ratings in front of
. house in BermOndsey, remarked. with
some confusion, that he was in the
wrong place, that the accused was his
brother, and that he had only attended
the court as a witness. The constable
said the person in the dock was the de-
fendant, and that he had been on bail
But here. again. there was an error.
The accused man had not been admit
ted TO BAIL at least, the man I'm the
dock said his-brOther was still detain-
ed i'm custody. Upon this. the constable
said he knew the accused person quite
we'll, and knew his family, about which
he proceeded to give details, and he
would assure his worship that the man
in the dock was the person who had
committed the alleged offense."
Just as the policeman's strange
views were beginning to overcome the
| judicial doubt the real defendant was
produced from Tho cells, where he had
been overlooked. The most curious part
loi the rase was that the two brothers
wero not In the least alike. and there
was no possible excuse for confusing

power of prejudice that the constable

Contrary TO expectation the Senate
committee in charge OF the bribery in
vestigation Of Clark, Of Montana, has
decided by unanimous vote to report
that he is not entitled to a seat in the
Senate. Not the decision, but the
unanimity is surprising. It was to
be expected that a diversity Of opinion
would result and a majority and a mi-
nority report follow. 1t is stated that
Mr.. Clark will resign. If he is not en-
titled to a seat he has nothing except
pretension to resign. A vacancy will
exist in either case, and the Senate will
have to determine whether It is caused
by failure Of the Legislature tC
