NEW LIG-r ON EXPERTS,


 The judicial oracle who classified per jured witnesses as liars, - liars ana expert witnesses was justified recently in a New York courtroom.
 A handwriting expert was testifying. "Is handwriting analysis an exact sci clce?" queried the cross-eXcminer. "In some cases it is and in some cases it isn't" was the exact reply. Which re- calls the famous ruling by the prcsi- dent of woman's club. "The chair decides that sometimes this associa- tion is bound by it's constitution and sometimes it isn't"
 "Is analysis of handwriting based on the law of probability" inquired the Cross-examiner. "To a great extent, ycs," answered the expert Do you know any other exact science that de- bends on the law of probability?" asked the cCrnering cross-eXaminer. "I don't knows I do." w2s the candid reply.
 The expert had made drawings of the characteristic letters in the chirog- raphy under consideration. Are the illustra ations you have made there in tended to be more or less originals ?'' More" confessed the expert. The e:l- pert admitted that he could draw Sor:e" and had the ability to enlarge or contract the chara cteristics" of the letters he w-s under oath literally to reproduce.
 The cross examination closed with the experts admission that he was paid in the case to draw letters differently from the originals"
 Expert testimony in relation to hand writing will never be worth the time .c
 
 as the alleged experts may be employed by the parties to Q case instead of by the court alone ss aids in ascertaining truth. Even then handwriting experts will be good for little.
 No human being capable of holding a pen writes the same word exactly the same way twice in lifetime unless his pen fingers arc automatic. The state of 2 mans temper, the condition of his liver the degree of pressure exerted at the moment on his time or attention, the kind of pen. of ink, of paper, affect the writing muscles.
 Honest men are unable, if they write much, especially in a hurry, always to read their own chirography. How lit tie reliance must be placed upon the interested asseverations of others who profess to be able not only to identify but to be able to establish handwriting analysis as an exact science, as if even 2 signature is always mathematically precise nd the perfect replica of every ether signature by the same hand. Court aneCdotage received a rich ad- dition when handwriting reading was pronounced by one of its professors "an exact science based on the law of prob ability. y."-Chicago Chronicle.

LANSING MANS CREDENTIALS.


 If the so-calIed "I.r1s ng Man" could
 be proved to be 10000 years old, as bis sponsors clcim. it would nos rollaw that we are to hail him as tho lircr American Human bones have been found in one of the coral ba nkS which are the founda ton that hold up the southern end of Florida. Upon an ct mate made by AeassiZ of the "Ge of the coral reefs those human bon were held to be at least 10000 years cd. Thus the Kansas man. is he is 1J.C0J years cid. had a conten porary or per haps a predecessor ic Florida
 In considering the right of the ,.a@ from Kansas to figure before the 30 ciety of Americanists as Verts Di- ancient, it seems odd that TO attention or but little, was given 1o the creden- tials this man brought with him. His own skull is an evidence and a declara- tion against the Iaims made for him. No man of 10000 ears ago had Q cram ium capable of accommodating the brain of the modern man; but this mans cranium is apparently up to the average of the ordinary man of the present time in that particular. Even within historical periods of comparison the difference between the primitive man and the man Of the present time as to cranial capacity is very great; and the difference against the man Of 10000 years ago is necessarily still greater.
 In the determination whether the re- mains of a man found anywhere in the world are those of a man of the pres ent period or of a man of a very re- mote period, the evidence as to where he was found: for accidents to the earth's crust which may confuse the geological evidence are always possible, but it isnever possible that the very ancient man had the cr2nial capacity of the modern man.

They stopped and he asked his sister to speak to her. While standing before them the girl raked a little hay over her bare feet.
 Brightness reigned supreme at Oak Knoll. Whittier was one day making sport of his cous,nc' difficulties with their bonnets, 70 which enc of them re- piled: "A man who has to go to Phil adelphia to get his coat cut should not criticise women's bonnets."
 Whittier's loyalty and generosity were shown by his concern of the fact that I was not also making a portrait or Oliver Wendell Holmes. He was strong in his praises of all his contem- poraries, but particularly of Holmes. Why" he would say, Holmes is in many respects the greatest of us all.'

A TIREBRAND FROM ILLINOIS.


 A hitherto unnoticed incident of the Chicago convention deserves publicity.
 During tho hours preceding the mak- ing of set speeches the strife for rec ognition from the chairman was par ticularly keen. One long. lean fellow. dressed like a AI.thodist preacher, was even more persistent than the others After many vain efforts to catch the chairman's eye, he began climbing over the benches, still soliciting notice He was, perforce, recognized
 'The gentlemar from Illinois has the floor" announc d the chairman, and, with a rap of his gayel, silenced the crowd. Up maic' es T.nabod to the front of the plrtforrg, where stood q table with ,asg md pitcher of water
 "Gent1emen Of lhe convention" he began, q" Id he halted and reached for the wster A few hasty gulps and he bessn again.

The crowd was becoming restless, and when for the third time he cleared his throat anI began, "Gentlerlen of the convention, nerves were on edge. The unfortunate was struSg ling for utterance, but his tongue would not obey him. He reached for the water, but was interrupted sadly by voice from the gallery-a slow, distre ssfully sympathetic voice:

 Immediately from every bench and gallery rained qnsUspected cups and buckets of water. The delegate from Illinois was literally flooded out, and for the rest of the convention the flame of his eloquence was effectually quenched.-Saturday Evening Post.

FALL HUNTING.

Nearly every lover of the gun and rifle has a choice of the game he will pursue. says Country Life in America
 This one is never so happy Gs when marking down a covey of quail To an other the prairie chicken, or, if he be eastern bred, the ruffed grouse, fur nishes the keenest sport. In a third the flight of wild fowl alone has power to snap the chains of business and send him forth into the marshes. With others it is squirrel shooting, the pur- suit of rabbit with beagles, riding to hounds in the chase of Sir Reynard
 while the lover of the rifle and the eter- nal mystery of the deep woods finds no such pleasure as in the pursuit of big game-n1oose, bear and deer. Many there are to cry down the hunt as cater ing to barbaric and the least human of the instincts which are the endowment from our forefathers. Therein do they do grave injustice to a class wherein are found some of the truest gentlemen and noblest natures whom we delight to honor They do gravely mistake the motive which sends the true sportsman aheld when he hears the challenge of the quail. It is not the mere desire to Kill; in truth, that were butchery But rather it is the longing 10 match skill and slowly acquired knowledge of the ways and habits of the little brown birds against their swift wings and in herent cunning which for lack of a bet ter term we call instinct. And beyond even this, it is for the pleasure of being

TEE FISHERMAN.

The fishers face is hard to read, His eyes are deep and still His boots have crushed a pungent weed Beside a far-off Till. Oh, early lifted he the latch And sped through dew away. But when we ask him of the catch That was to mark the day. He lifts his empty hands and smiles: I fshed for hours, I fished for miles" The fisher has an open mind
 meditative heart; He walks companioned by me wind Or sits alone, apart, Within some stream-e enchanted dell. The fish about him play In sweet content. They know full well That friend of his are they. Dame Nature all his soul beguiles With murmurous hours and emerald
 miles.
 But one who trod the path he took By fragrant woodland ways, To where the cold trout haunted brook Ran thick-leaved from the gaze, Heard him but sigh. How far it is! My God-and what am I That Thy most secret harmonies Should flood the ear and eye?" At eve with empty hands he smiles: 'I caught the best of hours and miles"

FOR A CHANGE OF DATE
RECORD OF PREVIOUS EFFORTS
TO SHIFT INAUGURATION DAY.
How the House Rejected the Amend
ment in 1883 Because of Com
plicating Proposals.

In view Of the determined effort which
trict and representatives of the people at
large, including the governors Of the states.
to secure legislation leading to change of
the Inauguration date, the record OF past
performances in this same line Is of inter-
est at present. 1t appears from the files
that whereas there had been continual pro-
tests against holding to the old date, in
view of the Indictment weather which or
dinarily prevails in early March. nothing
definite was undertaken in the way Of
shifting the date until the spring Of 1885,
For two years thereafter the movement
was, though wholly unorganized. kept ac-
tive, largely through the initiative of the
people of Washington, who were in a posi-
ton to realize the evil effects of a contin-
ued observance Of the established date.
The story Of the legislative campaign to
secure the adoption Of the amendment is
contained in the subjoined statement,
which was laid before the subcommittee of
sidering the Hoar joint resolution. at
meeting held the other day:
The Senate Resolution Of 1885.
During the long session Of 1886 the Senate
passed a Joint resolution. introduced by
Senator ingalls,. proposing an amendment to
the Constitution changing the Inauguration
date from March to the 'last Tuesday in
April" That resolution was referred In
June to the House committee on the judi
ciary and there 1t remained until February
% in the following year. 1887. when the
committee agreed to report it favorably

Ordered to Remove Obstruction.

The District Commissioners have received
a complaint from Wilbert Clary Of 1922 9th
street northwest. against the alleged OBJ
struction in the street in front Of the ware
house on the southeast corner of 18th and
L streets southeast. Material belonging to
the late sewer contractor. John Jacoby, it
is said, has been left In front Of the ware
house named, and no work Is being done on
the east side intercepting sewer at this
point. Captain Chester Harding. assistant
to the Engineer Commissioner. has forward
I'd the Commissioners recommendation
that the administrator Of the Jacoby estate
be informed that portion Of the late con-
tractors plant seriously obstructs the main
roadway leading to the warehouse in ques-
ton; that complaint has been made against
this obstruction by the owner Of the ware
house, and that the machines and material
must be removed within seven days Of the
date Of the notice. Captain Harding recon-
mends that If the order be not complied
with the obstruction be removed by the Dis
trict and the cost thereof charged to the
account Of the contractor.
