Cleveland, o., July 9.-The sub
poena issued Saturday for John d.
Rockefeller neans that If he decides to
return to Cleveland. or even to the
state of Ohio, he will do so at the peril
OF being arrested and tried on charge
for which the punishment is imprison-

may be exiled in Europe for a long
while, for even his presence in the Un-
tied States would subject him to the
same danger of arrest and trial.
Tho is it not expected that the fed

eide to do after hearing the evidence.
1t must be remembered that the jurors
are the sole judges of the evidence
which they hear, and no one but them
gsives can determine upon whom to fix
the blame.
THE government attorneys will
have done their part when they have
presented to the jury for it's considera
ton all of the evidence bearing upon
the crimes which the Standard Oil
Company and it's officials are said to-
have committed. If the grand jurors
find good grounds for rmeturning indict-
ments against certain persons, ! am
sure they will be no inspectors Of per-
sons where the good Of the country is
involved"

England. In 1916, Was the First of
the Nations TO Adopt IL.
The first nation to adopt the gold
standard was England She adopted
the gold standard nominally in 1916,
but practically not until three years
later, for in 1916 England was on the
paper basis. Germany, which adopted
the single silver standard in 1857, took
steps toward the establishment of the
gold standard in 1871, but it was not
until July. 1873. that she demonetized
silver, undertook to melt down her sill
yer coin, sell it for gold and establish
the single gold standard The Scandi-
navian nations adopted the single gold
standard at the same time. In Septem-
Der, 1873, France restricted the free
coinage of silver and three years later
entirely suspended such coinage, but
has never undertaken to discard the
silver coin she has in use or TO treat 1t
otherwise than as on an equality with
gold. The action of France in restrict
ing and then suspending the coinage
of silver on private account was fol
lowed by the other nations of the Latin
union-Belgium, Switzerland, Italy and
Greece-and Spain suspended the coin
age Of silver In 1878. Holland, which
had established the single silver stand
arl in place of the bimetallic standard
in 1S47, suspended the coinage of silver
in 1872 and opened her mints TO the
coinage of gold on private account in

SEX IN HANDWRITING.

An Interesting Little Experiment 70
Prove Theory.
II is curious fact that one Of the
only things which even an expert
graphologist does not guarantee to dis
cover in handwriting is the sex Of the
writer. We are accustomed TO think
that the feminine or masculine tenn
perament will readily betray itself in
the written word, but in the majority
Of cases such is not the case.
Writing bold, black and firm, most
masculine appearing in every way, will
frequently be found to emanate from
the pen Of woman, while delicate
tracery, with the regularity suggestive
Of precision and method OF the dash
and spontaneity which indicate live
ly fancy almost unmistakably femI-
nine, one says on examination Is dlscov-
cred to belong to a writer Of the oppo-
site sex.
An interesting little experiment prov
ing this theory can be made in this
way: Take twelve or twenty envel-
opes written in chirographles you are
sure Of and number each scrap clear
~. Pass them around and see how
many OF your friends will correctly
guess the sex Of the different writers.
which may be written down and num-
bered like the envelopes. 1t will sell
dom prove that more than one-third OF
the guesses at most are eorrect.-Ex-
