PERJURY IN EVERY COURT.
Great Evil That Is Becoming Menace
to Justice and Liberty in
This Country.

An interesting contribution to the
proof of the prevalence of perjury in
court proceedings is furnished, says
the Brooklyn Citizen, by a recent story
of the restitution of $3.50 to a street
railway company Of this city by the
priest of a Polish church in Manhat-
tan, acting on behalf of a woman who
confessed to him that she had OBJ
tanned it as her share of verdict in
her suit for damages against the COM
pany by false testimony.
According to the story. she testified
falsely by the advice of her lawyer,
who told her that if she presented
nothing but the truth in court she
could recover nothing. So she per-
iured herself Of course the priest
could not be bound to reveal her
identity and he did not, holding that
he had done his full duty to both the
woman and the company in securing
the restitution of the money fraud
ulently obtained.
The story exemplifies the difficulties
so often met with by the railroad COM
panies in answers to the frequent
damage suits, and justifies, as far as
it goes, their complaints of the way
in which many Of them are worked
up; a complaint that is also made by
many lawyers, who say that per-
furious testimony is increasingly en-
countered in the trial of cases, and
particularly those in which the for
eign element is concerned.
This state of things is encouraged
by the success which, as in the case
cited, is secured by perjured testimony
in the suits brought, but not by that
alone. 1t receives it's chief encour-
agement from the immunity from
prosecution and punishment given to
periurers and suborners of perjury
through the neglect of the authorities
TO follow up the evidence and the
clews that would often lead to the
conviction of the guilty. This preva-
lence of perjury is, indeed, matter
of such consequence to the commun-
ity-even more harmful. perhaps, than
murder-that it deserves the most
vigorous and rigorous attention of
those who have the power to effect a
general reformation in it.

TRAINING OF GAMECOCKS.
As It Is Conducted in the Country
Clubhouse of Wealthy
Philadelphian.

A young millionaire of Philadelphia
has been for five years profoundly in
terested in fighting cocks At his
country place he has a clubhouse de-
voted to the training of cocks, and
down in the clubhouse basement is the
cockpit, handsome amphitheater
The average person is unaware,
says an eastern exchange, that the
training of a fighting cock is as care
fighting man.
The millionaire stood the other
morning in a spacious and sunlit
room of the clubhouse One wall was
lined with handsome cages, each con-
tanning a cock, and here and there were
curious apparatus-a springboard, a
mattress, scales, shears, and so on.
The trainer took cock out of a cage.
He weighed it and entered it's weight
in a book. Then, holding it on
the springboard with one hand, he
worked the board vigorously with the
other. Thus the cock, maintaining its
balance on the fiercely jumping spring
board, got a good deal of violent exer-
cise
The trainer next massaged the bird
all over. He rubbed and pinched and
pounded the muscles of legs wings,
neck and body. This massage was tC
give suppleness and strength, and tc
keep the skin and feathers healthy
Now the man raised the cock in both
hands above his head and threw it, as
one would throw a football, on the mat
tress. 1t lighted handily on its feet,
and On the vibrating springs it kept its
equilibrium. Again, and even harder.
the trainer tossed it down, and again
it did not lose it's balance For five
minutes, in this way, the man played
Dall with the bird. Then he took it's
temperature with a thermometer, rub
bed it down and replaced it in it's cage:
Thus" said the millionaire, "we
train our fighting cocks" He pointed
here and there about the room. "Those
are the shears" he said, 1--WE cut their
feathers with The odd-looking mani
cure set is for their spurs-they fight
with their spurs, you know. as duelists
fight with swords. With the hypoder-
mic syringe we inject dope into
them"

Honor for a Hen.

Gandersheim, German village,
some time since was en- fete. The oc-
casion was the honoring of a hen
which laid it's thousandth egg. Many
of the houses were decorated with
fiags, while in the evening the propri-
etor of the hen entertained his friends
at supper, at which the principal dish
was a gigantic omelet. The function
was a splendid success, and the health
of the hen was drunk with great en-
thISiaSm.

fEATS OF BLIND AcROBATS
Athletic Experiences Which Is AS
tonishing in London College
Gymnasts.

Many of the gymnastic exhibitions
given in recent years by students of COL
legeS and universities of the world, cred
liable as they have been, are consider
ably overshadowed in the superior work
done by the blind students connected
with the Royal College and Academy
for the Blind at Upper Norwood, Eng
land. as was clearly demonstrated re-
Gently in the wonderful public exhibition
given by students of this academy at the
Crystal palace, this city, says a London
report.
The athletic expertness that is being
attained by these blind students is cer-
tainly marvellous and astounding, all OF
which is attributable to the regular
practice work pursued in the gymna-
Sium.
1t is an admitted fact that the twen-
tieth century finds physical training an
important factor in the educational
schemes for the seeing. Gymnastics and
drill enter in a lesser or greater de-
gree, in the curriculum of the schools
and colleges of all nations.
If physical training is considered so
necessary nowadays for the development
of the seeing. it is contended by those
we'll advanced in the training of the
blind that it is equally, if not far more
important, for the sightless, in order
that they may not be handicapped with
feebleness, awkwardness and helpless
ness, in addition to their sightlessness.
The physical development of the blind
is absolutely essential, if they are to
show vigorous growth, morally, men
tally or physically.
To bring about this happy and neces-
sary condition of things among the
blind, the latter now have recourse to
regular training in the gymnasium of
this very unique Royal college in Lon
don, where the course includes various
kinds of mass and apparatus work. In
addition, cycling, rowing. swimming
and roller skating are also systematicaI-
ly taught.
Blind boys and girls of this insti-
tute, many children of very poor par
ents, exercise alike in extension, IRON
bar and dumb-bell movements, to-
gether with combination exercise upon
the parallel bars, horizontal bar and
vaulting horse, and execute the move
ments as perfectly as the sighted classes.
The various machines used in the
gymnasium of the college are admir-
ably calculated to develop even the most
feeble of the blind students, so that the
pupil can proceed to the more advanced
apparatus, such as parallel bar, hori-
zontal bar, yaulting horse, and take
part also in such outdoor exercises as
cycling, boating, running, swimming,
eac.
The instructors at the Royal College
for the Blind sufficiently vary the class
exercises in the gymnasium as to bring
all parts of the body into healthful ac-
tivity so as to open the pores Of the
skin, force impurities to the surface,
expand the lungs, cause deep breathing
to stimulate the heart action, change
frequently the position of the viscera,
thereby stimulating the flow of blood to
all parts of the body.

Fortune from Trees.

Orsa. in Sweden, has in the course of
a generation sold e1,150,OO0 worth of
trees. and by means of judicious replant-
ing has provided for similar income
every 80 or 40 years. In consequence of
the development of this commercial
wealth there are no taxes. Railways and
telephones are free. and so are the
schoolhouses, teaching, and many other
things.

PLANS N SOUTH DAKOTA
Belle Fourc!'e Project Is Officially D;scusscd-ceverc
Other Practical Plans Under Consideration.

c. II. Fitch, who Is In charge Of irri-
gatlon Investigations in South Dakota,
IN his official report just submitted,
says the diversion of the Belle Fourche
river by a large canal below the mouth
OF Red Water creek and a short dis
lance from Belle Fourche. is conten-
plated. The line Of survey crosses
Crow creek and follows the river close
ly for a distance Of about eight miles,
then by a cut thirty-eight feet deep
turns to the north and northwest,
crossing Dry, Owl. Indian. Horse and
other small creeks as far as Willow
creek. Reservoirs for storage are nee
essary. Near the cut between Belle
Fourche river and Dry creek is Dry
Cree RESERVOIR. Here 1t would be
necessary to run two distinct canal
lines, one above the reservoir and the
other from the lower end OF the reser-
voir. A second reservoir Is located in
townships 8 and 8, range 8 east, Black
Hills meridian, designated as Wilson
reservoir. 1t Ia 4 lake bed. Both will
hold water as the soil is gumbo.
The canal survey has been completed
