A Curious Clock.

One of the most curious. clocks in
the world is. perhaps. that which tells
the times to the inhabitants of little
cry. which is nothing but face,
backwood town, and which was con-
structed some time ago. The machin-
hands, and lever. is connected with
a geyser, which shoots out an i'm
mense column of hot water every
thirty-eight seconds. This spouting
never varies to the tenth of a second.
Every time the water spouts up it
strikes the lever and moves the hands
forward thirty-eight seconds.

JOKE ON PARIS LAWYERS.
Members Of the Bar Supposed to
Work ONLY for Justice.

Members Of the Bar Supposed to
Work Only for Justice.
The wits Of the Boulevards have
been furnished with a fruitful topic
by the civil court of Paris, which has
ordered lawyer to return the greater
part of the fees he received in a GER
tain case.
1t is not in the enforced return of
the money, however, that the humor
lies, but in the ground on which the
court based its action. M. J. Cornely,
who records the incident, says the
Judge declared that members of the
bar there work for justice, not for
mcney. end have no legal claim to
one sou for services!
This. it appears, has been a hallow
ed fiction since the days of st. Louis
and we can well believe that its re-
crudescence at this time as judicial
act has caused a commotion among
tho lawyers of Paris.

GUILTY AS CHARGED.

Portland offers drama of life, on,
replete with the most thrilling situa
tions, The principal role is tilled by
United States Senator John II. Mitch
ell, a man who has led, who has been
honored and who, in his seventy
years, has earned the respect and admi-
ration of his people only to appear in
their midst decrepit, broken and dis
graced. He has achieved great ends
and has done much good for his state,
but in the minds of the jury, stern
body composed of men VINO were the
aged senator's staunchest friends, all
he has done amounts to naught in the
fact of his betraying a trust. Along
toward midnight Monday, Senator Mitch
ell was summoned from his bed to hear
the verdict of the jury. His face OF
CHASTITY pallor, weary of frame and brok
en- in spirit, with but a slight, linger.
ing ray of hope, in the company of the
two men who have stood by him in his
pitiable predicament, the senator fal.
teringly walked into the court room.
Without those dignifed walls resounded
the explosions of giant FIRE crackers and
the shooting of firearms, the premature
observance of the Fourth of July. In
different to these hideous noises which
must have fallen upon his ears as mock
cry, Senator Mitchell, on hearing the
verdict scanned every face in the jury
box, he hoped that with the polling
there would be one dissenting voice
but there was none. His last hope was
blighted. And so this venerable man
offers a severe object lesson. The As
torian believes that Senator MitchelPs
trial could not have been more fair and
while it regrets to see one who has held
an honorable standing so humbled 1t Is
satisfied.

NORWAY AND SWEDEN.

Two extraordinary committees, one
from each side of the Riksdsg, are to
consider deliberately the Swedish gov.
ernment's bill looking to a settlement
of the present breach between that coun
try and Norway. The governments po-
sition is that, as between the two evils,
a war of subjugation and a peaceful dis.
olution Of the present union, the lat.
ter is preferable. That popular senti.
ment, as expressed by the peoples rep
resentatives in the Riksdag, is against
this program and in favor of war, if
need be, is shown by the composition Of
these two committees.
That OF the senate consists of nine
anti-government and three pro.govern-
ment members, and the house commit
tee of five pro-government, five anti
government and to independent mem
bers. This is fourteen anti.goyernment
men against eight supporters of the
king, and two who might act with eth
er side in the final test-but a strong
working majority against a peace at
any price program. And the earnest
fiery, impassioned speeches delivered in
the Riksdag on Tuesday against Nor.
way and her revolt materially strength
en- a conviction that war on the Scan.
dinavian peninsula can not easily be
ayerted-is, indeed, almost inevitable.
The temperament of both peoples
must, however, be taken into considera-
tion. Neither is marked by a surcharge
of fighting blood" in its veins, and the
King Oscar, whom along with the whole
Nation of Norway they practically slap
ped in the face, to name prince of his
own line to rule over them as king!
The war spirit is clearly on the side of
Sweden in the greater measure-but il
Is possible, Of course, to calm it. The
government views the situation ration
ally, not with anger, or bitterness or
yindictiyeness. Our own interests in
Sweden" says Premier Ramstedt, the
advisor of King Oscar, "are against fore
ing Norway into any kind of union.
