THAW TO REMAIN IN

Federal Court DismiSses Ha-
beas Corpus Writ.

Pittsburg, Oct. 21.-The writ of ha-
beas corpus ad testiicandum recently
issued by United States Judge Archi-
bald Of Scranton, Pa, against Super
1ntendent Lamb of the New York
state hospital for the criminal insane,
which ordered the presence in this
city of Harry K. Thaw, slayer of STAN
ford White, to testify in bankruptcy
proceedings, was dismissed by United
States Judge James w. Young of this
district.
This means that Thaw will not be
brought to this city for the present at
least.
Judge Young held that there was no
necessity of bringing the prisoner
away from his proper place of confine-
ment into this district He said if his
evidence is necessary his deposition
can be taken without bringing Thaw
here. The writ must therefore be
quashed, he said, and the petition dis
missed with costs.
Ex-Governor w. A. Stone, attorney
for Thaw, said that he had not deter
mined what he would do next.

Precious Stones and "Paste!''

Glass, or "paste," as it is called, is
made which cannot when new be dis
tinguished from diamonds by any one
but an expert armed with the neces-
sary tests.
And the same is true as to paste imi-
tations Of all precious stones excepting
the emerald (whose beautiful green
tint cannot be exactly obtained), the
cats eye. which has a peculiar fibrous
structure, and the opal. The real value
and quality of precious stones as COM
pared with glass depend on their dura-
bility, their hardness, their resistance
to scratching and "dulling" of face
and edge.
Even our Anglo-Saxon ancestors
| made gems of glass and paste. It is
| only in modern times that the art of
making artificial "precious stones" has
reached degree Of perfection which,
so far as decorative purposes are con-
cerned, leaves the natural stones no
claim to periority.-London Tele-

HAD NO MONEY OF HIS OWN

Witness Says Defendant Furnished
Cash for Two Speculative Ventures,
the Former Giving Notes Which, He
Admits, He Could Not Pay Had the
Transactions Turned Out to Be
Losing Ones.
New York, Oct. 21.-In the trial of
Charles w. Morse and A. H. Curtis in
the United States court, Judge Hough
presiding. for alleged violation of the
national banking laws in the manage
Aent of the National Bank of North
America, Wesley M. Oler, president of
the American Ice company, resumed
his testimony. The subject under i'm
mediate investigation was the pool in
stock of the ice company in which
Morse, Charles M. Schwab, John w.
Gates, John F. Carroll and others
were interested. Mr.. Oler told of two
transactions in this stock in which he
had ventured on Morse's promise to
carry" his account. At the time the
witness was indebted to the National
Bank of North America and the New
Amsterdam bank, another Morse in
stitution. In one of these deals Oler
gave his note for s45,5OO, secured by
1000 shares of stock. This deal was
closed at profit Of $4,000, which
sum was credited against his indebted
ness to the National Bank of North
America. The second transaction was
In 1000 shares and Oler's note in this
instance was for $141, 900, with the
stock as collerateral deposited at the
bank last named. The witness said
he could not have paid the note and
that Morse was fully informed as to
his financial condition.
On cross-examination Mr.. Oler said
he had been president of the ice COM
pany since 1904, receiving a salary of
$4,000 year. He agreed with the
lawyer for the defense that the year
1906 had been a prosperous one for
the ice company, as it had earned 10
per cent on it's total capitalization of
$20,000,000 and paid a quarterly divi-
dend OF III per cent that fall. Like
Mr.. Morse he thought the future of
the ice company was promising.
Mr.. Oler said he regarded the fig
ures $33,000,O00, which represented
the American Ice company's good will,
patent rights, etc., as excessive.

Quick Wit,

Napoleon was pacing up and down
one day before his quarters, planning
probably some new scheme Of con-
quest. He dropped his glove, and
common soldier happening along pick
ed it up and returned it to him.
'"Thank you, captain" said the en-
peror absentmindedly, not thinking
that the man was only private.
"Of which company, sire?" put in the
soldier promptly, taking Napoleon at
his word.
"Come to me tonight and you shall
receive your commission" said the
great commander.
He knew that that common soldier
had the presence Of mind necessary to
make good officer.

In the "Coachinq" DAYS.

An amusing story is told Of the coach
which used to run between Edinburgh
and Berwick. A passenger complained
bitterly that the cushion on which he
sat was wet. It appears that there
was hole in the roof, and through it
the rain was pouring copiously. The
passenger called the guard and in
great wrath reproached him. All the
satisfaction he got, however, was the
quiet and typical Scotch reply, "Ay,
mony ane has compleened ABBOTT that
hole."-St. James Gazette.
