The Ruby club has closed it's doors. and will no longer offer Ru- by's bachelors a pleasant home in which to loaf and entertain their visiting trends. The members CT the club did not feel like paying the $1,OOg license tax that the decision of the circuit court of appeals on ap peal of the "Mumm' club Of Nome, seems to make q necessary condition to the maintenance of a sideboard-nor like bidding defiance to the law; hence it is closed until the text of the decision referred to can be obtained, and, if reports of the interpretations of the law are correct the club will not open.
 The Ruby club was well equip ped and its meembers were justly proud of it, and it is with poignant regret that we write this obituary. Ruby Record-C Citizen.

| all except the bride, stood as 1T dis covered in a crime. Then she, break Ing away from them, flew ta Dc Ro- Quette and, catching at him for pro- | tectlon, stood regarding the others in | terror. Raising the ponderous sword. ! the length of which was nearly equal to his own height, he stood ready to | briug it down upon whOmsOever might interfere with him or her The duke. drawing the raplcr at his side, adyanc- ed, paused, then said to the girl:
 Emile, will you not return to me| She made no other answer than to cover behind her protector
 ",Thls is no place, marquis,' said the duke, flor a dispute among men. Let us go out among the graves. The sex ton will not have far to carry you in | the morning"
 "I will certainly give your grace an opportunity to cross swords with me" replied the marquis, "but not at the present moment, unless you force me to do so. My. first duty is to protect this lady, and I see no one here with whom l may safely leave her"
 Ono of the attendant men sprang for ward and seized the duke by the arm. He was followed by the other man, then by the women. All pleaded with him to desist,
 This will make q scandal,' they ar- gued, that will put you again in the Basti'Ie and send the rest of us to our country estates, where We will have nothing to do but pine for Paris We were foolish to abct you in this wild scheme. And the Countess Emile! Do you suppose the powerful family to which she belongs will not avcnge this insult if it Incomes known? Give up your mad scheme. It is doubtless for tuuatc that it has been interrupted, and if it can be kept secret none of us may suffer on account of our part in it."
 The duke stood burning to proceed, but all declared that it was of them that he should think and not of him Ntils lAbNlA A-. tAAt lb 'LAe NAAh'iS would be less irlsome than the Bastille. Finally he shcathed his sword and, aft cr one more appeal to the countess to come to him, he was hurried out of the church by his friends, leaving the mar quls and the girl he lad saved from q mock marriage alone together.
 Here stops the chronicle of one of the vilest episodes of the time of the re- Cency of Philippe of France, but one which in that day was known only to q few. Later Gaston Marquis de RO- Quette and Emile Countess de Van dicrc were married in the very church where the mock marriage had been in- terruntol. And it is q matter of rec ord that neither of them ever again ap pcared at court Surrounded hy their children. adurcd by their tenants, they lived a life of simplicity and purity.
 But when at the end of the eight ecuth century the people of France rose to throw off the yoke of a profli- gate nobility the innocent were made to suffer with the guilty The mar Quis and marQulSc's grandchildren paid a penalty that they did not deserve.

The policeman's dignity is largely cen tered in his helmet The late Sir John Astley testifes to thls in his auto- biography. Speaking from the eXperi- ence of his youth, he says: If you get into a row with the police don't at- tempt to hit a policeman, or you will get the worst of 1t, but knock his helmet of. He will instlnctlyely stoop down to pick it up, for policeman without a helmet is impossible. Meanwhile you run away" It is perhaps advis- able to add that Sir John was the champion sprintcr of the army, as well as being q first class boxer.-Lon- don Standard.
