Dr. c. V. NorcrosS. He said in part:
THE mountains have ever been the bull

Va or is born there. Virtue is cherished
there. Democracy does not thrive there
it belongs to the torrid zone. Demo-

From present indications it is evident
that the mountain breezes and invigorat-

it will be necessary for them to return
to their past and future home. And the
hotter it is the better.
"Republicanism was born in the cold,
clear, invigorating mountainous coun-
try. The first of it's history is to be
found with the Norseman of northern
Europe They were the first to give trial

all men were equal. They We're the first

A DECISIVE TEST.
Method of Determining the OrirIn of
Blood Stains.

In trials for murder it is often of
origin OF blood spots found on cloth
ing, weapons, etc. Do they come from
human blood, or firm that of animals,
is the question asked. Recent expert
ments have shown that if red blood
Observation-Disclosures any ami
NAL are introduced into the blood OF
another animal the serum Of the lat
ter acquires the property Of destroying
other corpuscles Of the sort subse
quently introduced. This specific prop
erty OF the serum can be utilized as a
test in medico-legal matters To
carry out the test 1t is necessary to
have at hand serums already treated
with the red corpuscles of the blood
OF sheep, cattle, fowls, etc. Each one
Of these prepared serums will destroy
the red corpuscles Of one kind OF
blood very quickly. The sheep serum
will, for instance, destroy red corpus
cles Of sleeps blood in minute or so,
and its effect on the red cOrpuscles OF
any other blood is very much less
rapid and effective. If then, in any
special criminal case, the accused de-
clares that certain blood stains on his
clothing are spots of sleeps blood,
and not of human blood, decisive test
can be made by treating this blood by
the serums previously prepared by the
introduction of the red corpuscles o.
the blood Of different animals If the
serum previously prepared by the in
PRODUCTION of sleeps blood at once
dissolves the stains found on the
clothing OF the accused then his plea
was correct and the stains did, in fact.
arise from the blood of a sheep. II
the serum so prepared does not rapidly
destroy the stains his statement is
false. By trying other serums, pre-
vicusly prepared, one can be found
that will dissolve the stains on the
clothing and in this way the origin
of the stains can be quickly and sure
ly assigned. This procedure, pro-
posed by NJ. Ladislas Deutsch Of Buda-
pest, is apparently destined to be Of
great service in many criminal trials.

A BOYS AGE.
Doctor and Barber Disagree and Court
sides with Barber.


A youth clad in the shabbiest gar
mentS imaginable but wearing a one
karat diamond ring, furnished a prob
lem in the criminal court that required
the wit and ingenuity of experts to
solve, says the Omaha Bee. 1t was
necessary to ascertain the lads age
and before satisfactory estimate was
made several attorneys, barber, a
veterinary surgeon and Judge had
passed judgment unsuccessfully. The
boy is known to the police as DOC"
SilcOte. He was before Judge Baker
on the charge OF having stolen 2S4
pounds of bullion from freight car
on Union Pacific sidetrack near the
Smelter. When arraigned Silcote en-
tered plea Of not guilty. His attOr
ney informed the court that he desired
to withdraw the plea and admit his
guilt. If he were OF legal age, as al
legged in the complaint, the admission
of guilt would send him to the peni-
Tertiary; otherwise he would escape
with the reform school. Doctor, come
here" commanded the court. How
old are YOU" Il never knew" re-
piled the lad. Its going to be hard
work to tell this boys age" observed
the court. DO any of the complain
ants know anything about him." De-
tective Wizard of the Union Pacific
Railroad Company attempted to prove
that Silcote has been stealing so long
he must be more than 16, but the court
would not accept deductions for evil
dence One of the attorneys then 5ok-
ingly made a remark that was taken
seriously. There is man skilled in
hOrsecraft," he said, pointing to a vet
Urinary surgeon among the spectators
Bring him up" instructed the judge,
and let him see if he can give us a
clue" The veterinary expressed the
opinion that Silcote is more than 16,
as he had several teeth youngsters do
not enumerate among their mOlars. As
a precedent for expert testimony had
been established, an attorney for the
defense asked leave to call a barber
from the crowd to express an expert
opinion on SilcOte'S beard. The bar
Der thought he must be younger than
16. The court ruled finally that Silcot ?
is under legal age and cannot be sent
to the penitentiary. He will be sem
fenced to term in the reform school

SWEPT OVER NIAGARA FALLS
Hunter Dies in Effort to Cross
the River.
HIS COMPANION ESCAPES.
Plight OF Two Men Witnessed by People
from the Shore - One Adventures
Perishes 10y Being Hurled Into Roaring
Abyss.

Two reckless duck hunters of Buff
falo, John Wiser of South avenue and
Joseph Marsh of LinwOod avenue,
tempted fate in the wild current of the
Niagara river Sunday morning at dawn
and fate met them half way with out
stretched hands. Wiser vanished in
the crashing pillows of ice which
thunder over the mighty fall and
Marsh, who survives, energies from his
awful experience after thrilling bat
tie for life which turned his black hair
white within an hour and made of a
man strong and stalwart in the early
morning a shivering and trepid crea-
ture who will hunt no more.
The men rOwed safely past Connor's
island and into the middle of the river.
There the ice was clogged so they
could not use the oars and they lost
control of the little boat. Their plight
was discovered by people on shore,
who telephoned to the fire department
at the Falls to send a rescue corps with
ladders and ropes to points along the
banks. The wind was blowing SO hard
that the firemen came too late. When
the boat passed the Niagara Falls cleo
tric pOwer-house Marsh realized that
he must make desperate effort for his
own rescue. He stepped from the boat
to a cake of ice, calling to Wiser to
follow. But Wiser could not swim and
he sat still in the boat, trusting him
self on the uncertain ice. But when
they had been carried past the paper
mill Wiser, too, saw that something
must be done, and he jumped out on
the ice. Marsh was about thirty feet
nearer to the shore. The current was
getting less secure. At Henry Perky's
residence on Willow island group OF
men was watching the hunters. L.
A. Deeds, president of the board of en-
gineers of the Natural Food company,
got a long pole and, placing himself
on the shore at point projecting into
the stream, called to the men to swim
for it. Marsh jumped instantly, but
Wiser shook his head and remained on
his ice cake, which quickly passed into
the rapids. A high wave washed him
off the ice and he was carried along
and tossed over the brink of the falls
just behind the boat which he had de-
serted. Marsh's struggle for the shore
was observed by a large crowd. Three
times the ice and waves carried him
under Each time there was a cheer
Of encouragement as his head showed
again and he courageously struggled
on. He grasped the end of the pole
and was drawn ashore unconscious.
Then he was carried to Perky's house
and put to bed.

QUEEN VICTORIA Is DYING.
Aged Sovereign Unconscious and Can
Not BE Revived.


The queen of England is dying in
the imperial bed-chamber at COweS,
Isle of Wight.
1t is understood that the physicians
have resOrted to artificial methods to
prOlong life such as are used only in
the case of persons in eXtremis. The
paralysis is chiefly evident in the face,
one side of which appears to have lost
all nerve and muscular power Keenly
sensitive to her affection and appear
ance, the queen has absolutely refused
to see anyone but her nurses and doc
tors, and it is understood that the
Prince of Wales is the only exception
to this rule and that his interview yes
terday with the queen lasted but a few
moments. Hence the exact nature OF
the malady is known only to a very
few, and it is the royal wish that the
public should not be informed of the
existence of paralysis. Arrangements
have been made with a local undertake
er to have all the preiminaries to
burial ready in case of an emergency.
