BAZAAR STORE

ARTICLES VALUED

The store Of Porter & Gurley. near
the union depot, known as the Bazaar
was robbed Wednesday night by I'M.
known parties. and goods 10 the value
Of about SIS stolen.
The glass in the trent door was
smashed with some instrument and
the burglars helped themselves Ia
whatever was within reach. The mar.
ties committing the theft were ev;.
IDENTIFY afraid to enter the store. and
stood on the outside, gathering up
whatever articles that could be reach.
ed The total value of these will NOS.
sibly reach SIS.
Inc party committing the robbery
evidently smashed the window late in
me night, and it is presumed had a
confederate TO keep watch upon the
ofacer of the beat. The goods Sc
cured, however, were not of very great
value, and it is thought by those
working upon the case that the burg
lar was frightened away before he bad
an opportunity of securing more.

MARINES CAUSE
Some TROUBLE
j. G. DREW ARRESTED FOR HuRL.
ING ONE DOWN STAIRWAY s
AT DUNN'sI

Considerable excitement was Great
ed on Main street early last night,
when a marine, whose name could not
be learned, was found lying upon the
sidewalk on Main street in front of
the stairway leading to Dunn's lodging
house. To all appearances the man
was in an unconscious condition, and
he was taken to the police station.
1t was stated by Colonel Dunn that
early in the night three marines ap-
peared at his place, one of whom was
very drunk and that he elected them
from his place. He later left that por-
ton of the building, but shortly after
wards the man lying unconscious upon
the sidewalk was found.
J. G. Drew, an employee of the lodg-
ing house, was then arrested and adj
mitted to Marshal Schad that he had
showed the marine down the stairway,
owing to the fact that he was drunk
and that he was not wanted in the
building. Drew was held without
bond, pending the report of the city
physician upon the condition of the
marine.
City Physician Pierpont, upon reach
ing the police station made an exami-
nation of the marine, and ordered that
he be taken TO the hospital, as the in
juries. if there were any, could not be
discovered while the man was in such
an intoxicated condition.

Trick. of Ancient Gold workers.


There is a papyrus which gives
recipes for various alloys used in the
manufacture Of cups and vases, for
making gold and silver ink, for gliding
and silvering and for testing the purity
of precious metals. Other recipes
teach the method Of falsifying them
by adding baser metals-an operation
called diplosis. or doubling, for the
mass of the gold and silver was dou-
bled, while their color remained I'M
changed, and, as the compiler of the
manual remarks, a skilled workman
would find it difficult or even impos-
sible to detect the fraud. The recipes
which recur most frequently describe
various modes Of preparing Assem-, a
word which originally meant a natural
alloy of gold and silver known to the
Greeks as electrum. 1t was at first
looked upon as a distinct metal, was
considered sacred to Jupiter and was
designated by the sign of that planet.
but at later period the name was APP
piled to all alloys, and in this fact
seems to lie the explanation of the
origin Of alchemy. Both gold and
silver could be extracted from genuine
Assem-, and it seemed as though it could
be changed at the will of the operator
into either one or the other 1t could
also be made artiicially by mingling
gold and silver, or closely initiated by
some of the numerous alloys, eleven or
twelve varieties of which are describ-
ed in the papyrus Of Leyden.

wayr OF the rrIsh Jnrrer.

A good story, which illustrates the
absolute genius with which an Irish
1arvey extracts money from his vic
TINS, is told in an English journal. A
commercial traveller wanted to take a
side car in Belfast and, aware of the
rapacity of the average jarvey, insisted
on knowing the exact fare before get
ting on the car. The 70" ing dia-
logue ensued:
Commercial Traveller - What's the
fare to c., javey?
Jarvey-Ach, that's alroight, sorr.
Just get on.
Commercial Traveller - Now, look
here, what's the fare to c.?
Jarvey-Shure, it's alroight, sorr.
Just jump up.
Commercial Traveler-I insist on
knowing the fare before l get on.
Jarvey-Bedad, sorr, I'm that hard
up I'll drive you for nothing at all,
sorr.
Needless to say, when the CONNER
cisl traveller finally got to his destina-
ton he was mulcted of an amount
much larger than the legitimate fare,
an amount he had to pay to save his
face.

DEFENSE In
SHOOT CASE
EXAMINATION OF WITNESS CON.
FINED ALMOST ENTIRELY
TO POLITICAL coNDl-
TIoNS IN IDAHO.

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE defense
in the case of Reed Smoot be-
fore the senate committee on priv
ileges and elections to-day called to
the stand F. H. Holsheimer, a practic-
ing lawyer of Pocatello, Idaho. He
lived in Utah about twenty years be-
fore going to Idaho two years ago. He
belongs to the Episcopal Church and
said he always had been a democrat
except for a time in Utah. when in
common with the Gentiles he belong
ed to the liberal party.
The examination of Mr. Holsheimer
was confined almost entirely TO polit-
ical conditions in Idaho. He was a
member of the last democratic con-
vention which adopted an anti Mormon
plank and served on the resolutions
committee. On the resolutions COM
mittee he declared that he had op.
posed a plank For the determination
of polygamy and polygamous cohabi-
tation and the separation of church
and state" on grounds that no plank
of that character was needed, as there
had been no plural marriages in the
state since the manifesto. The wit
ness said a majority of the delegates
were opposed TO the plank but that
the resolution was forced upon the
convention, but it was understood that
former Senator Heitfeldt, who had
been endorsed for governor, had made
a pledge to the national convention
that it should be adopted.
Afterward he was nominated by the
convention for congress, but subse-
quently declined to run on the ticket
because the party leaders had refused
to conduct a campaign directed
against the Mormon Church. These
leaders, the witness said, called their
plan a campaign Of publication of
idaho homes.
