Two OF three centuries ago the stone
was very popular in Europe, and the
jewelers. OF Italy were especially Il

its popularity came the plague which
wrought great havoc in Venice. 1t was
noticed by some observant persons In
that city that when a victim was on
the point OF death his opal. II he wore
one. frightened. while after death 1t
became dull. The reason OF this was
the heightened fever made the stone
become hot. and consequently very
brilliant. white after death the chill
and damp of the body dulled it. 1t was
however declared by many that 1t

Popular Talks on Law
ASSAULTS AND BATTERIES
ny waller x. Towers. A. H. J. D. Of me Michigan Bar

Many are the happenings Of every |
day life that might under strict rules
of law, be held to be assault and bat
terry, if the persons involved chose
to bring the matter to the attention
of court. Enough are taken up
by aggrieved parties, who choose to
press their claims before the law, to
make actions for assault and battery
frequent indeed. So an action for
assault and battery is likely to hap
pen within the experiences of any of
US. The victim of more than one
practical joke" has failed to view
the matter as a 'joke" and recover
ed damages against the joker, whom
the law held to be quilts Of an as
sault and battery. Not infrequently
an angry assailant, though he fails
to reach the man upon whom he
would vent his wrath, finds that he

MACH|N|STS HAVE
COOPERATIVE STORE
Practical Test,o of Plan in Lodge
Rooms Shows That System
Is Successful.

Columbia Lodge No. ia International
Association of Machinists, made up Of
the several thousands of skilled ma
chinists of the Washington navy yard
and the Washington gun factory, is
operating a general store along the line
of community of interest or cooperative
to reduce the high cost Of living.
Goods are sold to members of the CO.
operative store plan at a small frac-
tional cost above actual cost, the ad-
vance over cost price being necessary
for the operation of the plan.
The cooperative plan was given a
practical test at the lodge room of the
association in Naval Hall, Pennsylvania
avenue and Fourth street southeast, be-
fore Christmas. This was on a small
scale, but the success of the experiment
was so marked that the lodge deter
mined to put il in operation on an ex-
tensive scale.
After operating the general store for
period of six months an inventory
shows that over $500 has been paid
in for necessities Of the home. The
store is located in the Naval Hall build
ing and under present arrangements is
open Wednesday nights, when the Co
lumiba Lodge meets, and on Satur-
days from $50 to S o'clock in the even
ing.
A full lire Of standard family and
fancy groceries, fresh and smoked
meats, chickens, and other necessities
are sold. Some vegetables are offered,
but in the line of perishable things the
general store Is cautious.

HEFL|N IS SCORED
BY SUFFRAGETTE
New York Woman Says It Takes
Wooden Head to Coin Such
Word as "Suffratescent."

"A suffragetor is a male suffragette,
a feeble-minded suffratescent creature.
Suffratescent is a coinage of my own,
and means wooden-headed."- Congress
man Heflin of Alabama.
'Suffratescent' comes naturally from
a suffratescent."-Ida A. williams. of
Utica, n. Y.
Such is the carstic comment of a York
State suffragette on the speech Of Con-
gressman Heflin in a local church re-
Gently. her inference being that it takes
a person with a head OF the same gen.
eral composition as a croquet ball to
coin a word to fit such a condition.
1T is. indeed, quite proper and fit
ting. likewise natural, that the word
'suffratescent' should have first emaDa-
ted from the brain 80 of the Hon.
Thomas Heflin, since, like begets like. "
she states above her signature. More
dense ignorance upon the subjects of
socialism and woman suffrage in
their broadest application than that re-
yealed in his bald statement against
them could scarcely be conceived.
Frankly, it is too absurd to discuss or
take seriously
