CLIMATIC ECcENTRIcITIEs.

Sing a song of sleigh bells
Jingiing in their fun;
Sing a song of roses
Smiling in the sun;
Sing a song of sunstroke,
Sing a song of frost,
For the climate changes hourly
And the weather bureaus lost.
Sing a song Of snow birds;
Sing of robins gay;
There isn't any telling
Which well see within the day,
We both perspire and SILVER
As we look, with souls dismayed,
For anything from zero
Up to so in the shade.

King Oscar of Sweden wears upon his
breast a medal for saving life. 1t was
conferred upon him by the French gov
eminent as far back as 1861, long before
lie assembled the throne, for two feats of
courage performed in the neighborhood
of Nice. The first consisted in checking
at the peril of his life two runaway
horses hitched to a carriage that were
on the point of dashing themselves and
the vehicle with its occupants over a
precipice. Five days afterward he
jumped into the water and saved a child
from drowning. He declared that he
deemed it best to leave Nice after this
lest lie should be accused of posing for
a professional lfesaver and as staying
on the Riviera for the sole object of ex-
ercising his profession.

Some of the European monarchs give
very large tips whenever they travel, and
others on the contrary, are quite niggard-
Iy. Emperor Nicholas of Russia is the
most liberal in this respect. During his
brief visit to France three years ago he
spent $4,000 on tips to servants and al
most as much on presents to officials and
others King Edward of England is not
quite as generous, but as he travels a
good deal, both within his own realm and
abroad. he is obliged to lay aside each
year $50 900 as an allowance for tips.
Emperor William of Germany is much
more generous in foreign country than
at home, and during his recent visit to
Cowes, England he spent not less than
$4,000 on tips. OF the remaining rulers
some spend reasonable sums ard Others
very little, but probably quite as much
as they can afford.

TEN YEARS FOR BARRY.

The supreme court has handed
down a decision in the famous
Barry murder trial, as result of
which VIM. Barry, the slayer Of
Andrew Mellum, will serve ten
years in the state penitentiary, in
stead Of all the days of his life.
This case was twice tried in Cava-
lier county and once in Walsh.
The first trial resulted finally in
a verdict of guilty of murder and
Barry was sentenced to life i'm
prisonment. A new trial was
asked for on the grounds Of pre-
judice in the charge of Judge
Kneeshaw to the jury, which was
granted, and the case came up a
second time in Cavalier county,
Judge Cowan presiding. This time
the jury found Barry guilty Of
murder in the second degree and
recommended sentence of seven
years. Judge Cowan refused to
accept the verdict, and the jury
finally disagreed. The next trial
occurred in Walsh county, before
Judge Cowan, who denied mo-
ton for dismissal on the grounds
Of former jeopardy, former convic-
ton and former acquittal, and the
case was tried on. its merits, the
jury finding Barry guilty Of MUIR
der in the first degree and recon-
mending life imprisonment. The
case was taken to the supreme
court on an appeal from the ruling
of Judge ,Cowan in refusing to
considerHthe motion for dismissal
at the third trial, slid the finding
Of the jury at the second trial is
upheld bv that body. Instead Of
seven years, however, Barry will
have to serve ten, which is the
minimum sentence for the crime
Of which he, was found guilty.
