COURT HAS APPEAL
Arguments in Standard Oil
Case Completed Yester-
day Afternoon.
KNEW IT WAS VIOLATION.

Chicago, May 9.-The arguments in
the appeal of the Standard Oil COmpa-
ny from the fine of So. 2+O0Go. i'm
posed by Judge Lands, were contin-
ued. Assistant District Attorney VIII
kerson made the appearance for the
government. He contended that the
company knew that it was violating
the law. inasmuuch as the accounts Of
the Standard Oil Company were kept
separate from the general accounts OF
the railroad. He declared that the ev-
idence all tended TO show that collu-
sion between the railroad and the oil
company existed and that there could
be no doubt of the guilty knowledge
of the defendant company.
Arguments were completed late Fri
day afternoon. and the court took the
appeal under advisement.

A Servian Custom.

A traveller through Servia will
often notice dolls hung up inside
the cottage windows. His first idea
is one of surprise that the children
should so often choose this partic-
ular spot to store their toys, but
presently he learns that the dolls
are put up as a sign to announce
to wayfarers that marriageable
daughter dwells in the house. The
idea is to remind acquaintances
from other villages who may have
forgotten her existence. This Gus
tom is naturally confined to peas
ants, but nearly every house has a
wreath of corn ears hung up on the
outer wall. This wreath is brought
back from the harvest festival, and
there is superstition that if it be
stolen a daughter of the house will
shortly be married. Where this is
particularly desired care is taken to
suspend the wreath we'll within
reach of possible marauders.

PROFANITY.
Growth of Refinement v.;;i End Its
Now Deeiininq Uso.

Growth of Refinement V.i End Its
Now Declining Ueo.
Words and phrases which are am
ply sufficient for the understanding
are often altogether inadequate for
the expression of the feelings. The
result of this mental dissatisfaction
with the communication of mere
knowledge is most conspicuously IL
lustrated in the wide prevalence Of
profanity.
Into the discussion Of this prac-
tice its moral and religious aspect
does not enter at all. 1t is purely
from the linguistic side that it is
here to be considered.
So looked at, its existence and
the extent of the indulgence in it
bear out the truth of the principle
just announced. Whatever intel
lectual justification there may be
for profanity is based upon the fact
that men are aiming to state strong
ly what they feel strongly.
The habit is in consequence sub
ject to the general law governing
intensives. To very great extent
the practice of swearing is specially
characteristic of rude and imper-
feet civilization. With the advance
of culture profanity declines.
1t declines not so much because
men become peculiarly sensitive to
its viciousness, but they do to its
inelfectiveness. The growth of re-
fnement both in the individual and
in the community tends more to its
disuse than all the exhortations of
moralists or the rebukes of divines.
Much must always be allowed in
the case Of particular persons for
the influence Of early training and
association. Exceptions are, there
fore, too numerous to lay down any
positive rule. Still it is safe to say
in general that a mans intellectual
development is largely determined
by the extent Of his indulgence in
profanity.
No one, indeed, doubts its wide
prevalence at the present time. But
compared to the practice of the past
it has been steadily, even if slowly,
diminishing for centuries. This
does not prove that men are better
morally or intellectually than they
were.
It does show, however, that there
exists now higher average Of cul-
tivation which renders the habit dis
tasteful to increasingly large num-
bers-Harper's.

Antonius AureIius.

Antonius Aurelius, king Of Arau-
cania, the first and the last Of his
dynasty, had once his day of fame.
He was the man who would be king,
and for short time he was one.
Aurelius began life as an ambitious
Frenchman; he ended it as a Ger
man under the name Of Herr von
Tonneins, dying in great poverty at
Marseilles, but for a brief period in
the fifties Of the last century he
was king over the Araucanian In
dians in South America. When
Won Tonneins founded his mon
arehy he found it necessary to have
his court, SO he travelled over to Eu-
