The BonIne Trial.

Washington, Dec. 4.-The case of Mrs. Lola Ida Bonine, on trial for the murder of James Seymour Ayres, IT,, is expected to go to the jury the latter part of this week. Three witnesses. intimate friends of Ayres, were put on the stand yesterday and swore that they had seen revolver in Ayres room. Two of them, Duncan B. Hub bard and Thomas Ford, had come from Michigan to testify. They said the revolver greatly resembled the one In evidence. The wrapper worn by Mrs. Bonine on the night of the trage- dy was again the subject of discussion. the defense putting on the stand wit nesses whose evidence was intended to discredit that given by Dr. Shaeffer, the government expert, who said no blood spots had been found on it.

Supreme Court Decides Philippine

Supreme Court Decides Philippine
 Tariff Is Illegal.
 Washington. Dec. 4.-Opinions have been rendered in the United States su- preme court in the last two of the ill., sular test cases. One of them was that known as the fourteen diamond rings" case. involving the relationship of the United States to the Philippine Islands from tariff point of view, and the other what is known as the Dooley case No. 2, involving the constitution ality of the collection of duty on goods shipped from New York to Porto Rico.
 In the Philippines case passed upon adversely to the government the con- tention was set up that duties had been illegally collected on goods brought to the United States from the Philippines after the ratification of the treaty of cession and before con- gress had by special act extended the customs laws to the islands. That was the contention made in the De Lima case. involving exactly the same principle. The other decision was in what is popularly known as the second Dooley case and was brought from Porto Rico. involving the right of the government to collect customs duties on goods exported from the United States to Porto Rico after congress had legislated for that island. In this de cision the constitutionality of the For aker law is fully sustained. so that no longer can there be any question of the power of congress over the Philippines and Porto Rico.

Greek and Roman Stoves.

Warm as Greece and Rome and Egypt are, stoves were made there in the dim and misty vistas of the past. It was not just the pattern used at present, but was a metal basin in which charcoal was burned. It sat In the middle of the room, and as the re- sulting smoke was of the slightest no opening in the roof or elsewhere was necessary. The same implement, still called by It's old Greek name of bra zier, Is now employed In many portions of continental Europe, where 1t Is util- ized for heating as well as cooking.
 But the progressive Romans i'm proved on that and made hypocaust. It was the germ of the present fur mace. It was made under the house in a little cellar prepared for 1t, and the heat was conducted to the rooms and baths through crevices left in the floor and lower portions of the wall. Later fiues were provided, conducting heat to any portion of the house. In some of the old Roman villas In England the remains of these old time furnaces are still found

Fire Among Savage Nntion.

According to Pliny fire was a long time unknown to some of the ancient Egyptian tribes, and when a celebrated astronomer made them acquainted with that element and how to produce 1t they were wild with delight. The Per sians, Phnnicians, Greeks and several other nations acknowledge that their ancestors were once without the com forts which fire bestows; the Chinese confess the same of their progenitors. Pompanlon, Mola, Plutarch and other ancient writers speak of nations which, at the time when they wrote, knew not the use of fire or had just recently learned it.
 The inhabitants of the Marian islands, which were discovered in 1851, had no idea of fire or Its uses. Their astonishment knew no bounds when they saw 1t applied to wood, most of them taking 1t 10 be some kind of an animal which the sailors had brought with them and which must be fed on wood.
