embodies its authority
One of the ludicrous enactments to be
found In acts of parliament is the statute
for the rebuilding of Chelmsford Jail. The
bill as originally drafted provided that
prisoners should be confined in the old jail
until the new one was built; but In commit
tee a clause was added to the effect that
the new prison should be constructed out
of the materials of the old. and the bill be-
came law before anybody detected this
Then there is the ''fifty-second of George
III, chapter 146, which enacts that the pen
atty imposed under it shall be given, halt
to the king and half to the poor of the
parish. After the act had been passed il
was discovered that the penalty which the
act provides Is transportation for fourteen
years. The first intention was that the
penalty should be a fine of 950o. On sec
ond thought, parliament substituted a term
of penal servitude: but it forgot to omit
the clause providing for the division of the
spells between the king and his INDECENT
subjects.

Oregon Trees In Austria.

From the Portland oregonian.
A. Il. Miller of Sellwood yesterday made
shipment of 750 pounds OF the seeds or mr.

forests OF Austria. One thousand pounds
were wanted, but these were all that Were
gathered About COO sacks or cones were
picked from young trees, from which the
seeds were carefully taken. Between 2oo
and 800 pounds of seeds were sifted from
the whole bulk that did not promise, only
the very best being sent across the sea.
oregon fir and spruce are growing on
thousands of acres of territory in Germany
and Austria that had been denuded of trees.
Mr. Miller has been gathering seeds OF these
trees for several years. He says that the
fir Is the most popular tree and the seeds
are eagerly sought for. the demand being
greater than can be supplied.

PARIS, January >, 1906
A hardneaded scientific party is now
media ting IN a Paris prison. Up TO yester-
day he had a bad celebrity; yet he remained
unknown. Today he is known; yet his past
remains Il mystery. For five years the po-
lice of Europe sought him vainly as the
cuigmatical safe-melter Of Paris; and,
caught at last by no fault of his own, he
regrets that he ever took a partner.
Though he was wanted in most of the
European cities It was in Paris that he
first made himself famous, and periodically
Paris was safe TO have some new proof of

carbon through the hole In the plate for a
shield he had only to complete the contact
to get heat of 5000 degrees centigrade on
a given point of the safe door. If you re-
member that steel melts at l 800 degrees
centgrade, you will understand how he
could melt holes in it as in lump Of but

So he would go on, making series of
small holes, then holes between the holes
and so on till the metallic center could be
wrenched from it's jagged circumference.
1t was the same when he employed thermit,
German soldering product that gives out
enormous heat; but more and more of late
the clean-cut edges of his holes induced the
belief that this ill-directed genius actually
forestalled in his criminal practice the most
sensational Woodworking invention of the
present year.

tubes lead to two steel cylinders in which
mixed oxygen and hydrogen and pure oxy-
