BIBLE WITH ROMANTIC HISTORY
1t Was Eoand on the p,a,a. .s

1t Was Found on the Plains and Used
 on Many Ceremonial Occasions.
 The Bible which was used in tba ceremonies beginning the celebration in tills city of the fftieth anniversary of the state of California has q history that is very interesting. In 1S4s a young man in coming across the plains fouad pile Of books by she side of the road with stick stuck among them bearing note telling travellers fo help themselves. The young mas in searching through the old volumes found q handsome Bible, which he con sidered shame to be left upon the ifeary desert. He placed it in his pack and carried it to Sacramento. He presented it to Dr. R. H. Mcdonald who at that time conducted drug store in that city. Some time after the advent of the Bible into Sacramento a meeting was called in that city for the purpose e1 founding a lodge Of Masons. That was on Jan. s. 1850. and the lodge Was to be known as Connecticut Lodge, No. 75. It chanceG that the meeting place was adjoining the premises occupied by Dr. McDon. ald. When it was convened it waS found that there vas no Bible at hand with which to conduct the ceremonies and pr. Mcdonald presented the book that had been given to him by the young man for the lodges use. On the 18th of the following April the grand lodge of Masons was formed and the Bible again played an important 9art in the ceremonies. After the form ation of the grand lodge the name O. Connect ut lodge was changed to Te- hama lodge, No. 3, but e..er since it's establishment on Jan 8, 1850, the Bi- ble has remained in the possession Of the lodge. R. 0.

 Must Not Speak Too Freely.
 The editor of a small provincial pa per in Austria was in great difficulty to find a fit subject for his leading article, having been too intent upon other business or upon pleasure to provide one. The last moment had come and the editor MAS in despair. He tortured his brain in vain, when he suddenly was inspired by q happy thought and dashed off the lines: After carefully perusing the leading article written foi the present number by one of the 4blest of our contributors, We have ar rived at the conclusion that 1t may be misinterpreted by the authorities and regarded as an attack upon the gov ernment. We ourselves consider 1t to he perfectly innocent, but, as we are unwilling, for our readers sake, as well as for our own, to have our news paper eonfseafed, we have very un- willingly, though, as we think, pru- dently. resolved to withdraw the artl- eIe. This must serve as the apology to ollr readers for the blank space in our present issue. The journal was pub 3ished in the evening, and the sly ed ltor, after performing this little piece of stratagem, left the office in high fumor. As soon as he arrived in the office next morning a clerk came up to him, with 2 doiefdl expression, ana said.

TIE IDEAL AUTOMOBILE.
Low Cost, Durability. and Speed Nee

 Low Cost. Durability. and Speed Nee
 essary.
 The automobile has been sufficiently long in our midst to enable us to define the essential qualities which go to make up an ideal machine, says the Scientific American. Naming them in their order they are as follows: Low cost, durability, endurance (arge fuel supply. ability t5 climb hill and speed. Low cost is given the first place for the reason that the present price of the au- tomobile places it altogether beyond the means of the average individual, and renders it very decided luxury It is certain that cheapenfng the cost will produce a proportionate increase in the demand. and an increased de- mand will lead in it's turn to a reduc- tion in the price This was conclu- sively proved in the history of the bi- cycle, the cost of a first-class machine today being about one-qGarter what IL was few years ago, when the number of riders was limited. But while the fdeal automobile must be cheap, the reduction in price must not be gained at the expense of sound materials and good workmanship. However great may be the demand for a low-priced machine. our man afacturers must nev- CT attempt to meet it by making a short cut by way of showy but inferior construction The folly of such a meth od Was demonstrated very conclusive D sAea sAs ssaye1e #aR x she AetshS q its popularity Next te it's low cost and durability we place the endurance of the automobile. by which we mean lts capacity to cover a large mileage without having to refill it's fuel tanks.

Real Shirt Waist Man.

"This year." says writer in The
Philad elphia Record, "We have
merely seen the man in the ordinary
negligee shirt who had nerve enough
to remove his coat in public. But
next year we shall see real shirt
waists for mems wear, almost similar
to those worn by women. The large
shirt manufacturers are already max
ing them up, and the statesmen will
soon start out with their samples,
soliciting orders for the spring trade;
for the ready made shirt business,
like most other large industries,
must keep season ahead. A Chest
nut street dealer in mems furnishing
goods said yesterday that he under
stood the new garments would be a
complete innovation. They are made
with blouse effect, the waiStband
connected with the trousers by but
tons. just as in the garments worn
by small boys. Some have broad
yokes, and Others have pleats both in
the bosom and in the back. The
manufacturers are not taking any
chances, though, said the haber-
daSher. The sales are to be out
right, and cannot be cancelled or
modified to suit the demand, as is
the case with most staple goods. Ii
we buy them and can't sell them
we're stuck. Do l think they win

MCKINLEY URGED
THE ARMY'S DECREASE.
Without Further Legislation,
Army Will Drop LIN
July to 27,5OO.

New York, Oct. 26.-The Republf-
can Nat oral Committee issued a
statement concerning the United
States Army to-day, which is in part
as follows:
Secretary Root recently called
attention to the fact that in the fall
OF 1898, when President Mckinley
recommended the retention of 100, 900
men in the army he was arguing for
a decrease and not an increase, for
then there were 272, 900 men in ser
vice. The war with Spain was not
ended, for the peace treaty had not
been ratified.
in the meantime people should
remember that, unless there is fur
ther legislation on the subject, the
army will drop back to the former
limit of p, 500 men next July, which
is only third of what it was in
proportion to the size of the country,
so great has been the growth in pop
ulation.
"ThiS makes little allowance for
the elaborate scheme of coast fortifi-
cations proposed by the late Samuel
j. Tilden for the protection OF a
peaceful Republic"

HUNT BROTHERS.
GALBLUME is CONVICTED.
Jury Says He Tried to Kill
William Wright.

Arguments of counsel in the case of
Abraham Galblume, of Philadelphia.
charged with attempting to kill
William Ell. Wright, of Philadelphia,
at Bradway's Station, Salem county,
on the evening of September ID, were
heard at the opening of Court on
Wednesday. Ex-JudgeWestcott opened
the case for the defence, and spoke
about twelve minutes. He declared
tnat there was no motive for the
crime. There was no motive on the
part of Mr.. Wright to have attacked
Galblume, and on his part it could
only have been robbery, and there
was no proof that the defendant
knew that Wright had any money in
his pockets. If robbery was the in
tention of Galblume, he left Wright
before he accomplished his work.
The Judge dwelt at some length on
the fact that while Wright could re-
member clearly what occurred Gal
blume was so excited he could re-
member hardly anything that hap
pened.
Prosecutor Sinnickson made a very
strong plea, during which Mrs. Gal
bIume, the mother, and Miss Bea-
trice Edwards, the fancee, were
deeply affected and burst in tears,
the mother clinging to the arm of
her son and weeping bitterly. The
scene when Galblume was led to the
jail, was a most affecting one
Judge Sinnickson, in charging the
jury, said that serious crime hau
been committed within the borders
of Salem county, ana that they
should confine themselves strictly to
the evidence. The charge was vely
brief, and before closing, the Judge
said that the jurors must give the
prisoner the benefit of every doubt.
After being out about forty-hve
minutes, the jury returned a verdict
of guilty of the charge as found in
the indictment-guilty of assault,
atrocious assault with intent to kill.
The sentence will not be imposed
until later in the week. The maxi
mum penalty is seven years impris-
onment and $1,000 fine.
