The criminal docket was taken up yesterday morning and the first case called was that of the State vs. Eth ridge, McMahon and Britt, charged with burglarizing the home of H. C. Burr on the night of Dec. 31st last. A jury was obtained with but a short delay, when the examination of witnesses was begun, which included quite a number both for the prosecu tion and the defense. At the conclusion of the evidence the solicitor general announced that the case against Britt was nol proseed, as he had shown an alibi. The argument was opened about 4 o’clock in the afternoon by Col. E. W. Beck, representing McMahon, who spoke about one hour, making a very creditable argument for his years. Col. Thurman, repr ing Ether idge, followed in an hour’s speech for bis client. Col. E. W. Hammond and Solicitor Bloodworth followed for the prosecu tion with two masterly speeches They took up the chain of evidence link by link, and so sealed the guilt of the accused that the verdict of the jury was freely predicted. It was late at night when the argu ments were concluded and tire court gave his charge to the jury, which was a forcible rendition of the law touch ing the case.. After gjving instructions to the jury and bailiffs for the night the court ad journed until 8:30 this morning. The jury will probably be ready to hand in a verdict when the court opens this morning. Judge Beck, late in the afternoon, announced that all jurors not engaged in the case then on trial, and all jurors drawn for next week, weie discharged from further service during tbe-term. The grand jury will remain in ses sion probably several days longer. Thats to Be Remembered- The Boston Globe, writing of what wives should remember, thinks they should remember: That Adam was made first. That “he pays the freight.” That “blessed are the meek.” That nine men in ten detest gossip. That all angels are not of your sex. That confidence begets confidence. That men sometimes have “nerves.” That there should be no place like home. That it takes two to prolong a family jar. That the least said is soonest mended. That with all his faults you love him still. That you should have no secrets from him. That husbands have troubles of their own. That he’s “all right” when you know him. That woman’s best weapon is her weak ness. That home is more than half what you make it. That he is just as anxious to get rich as you are. That wives are usually favored in this country. That his typewriter cannot help it if she is pretty. That he likes to hear that the baby is his dead image. Thai six pairs of slippers are enough for any man. That a man likes neatness in your at tire at all times. * That candy in excess is worse than rum in moderation. That you should not run up bills with out his knowledge. That “a baby in the house is a well spring of pleasure.” That she who puts on the gloves should know how to spar. That he is not in love with every woman lie glances at. That it is policy to make him believe he is “lord and master.” That your relationship is closer to him than to your mother. That a prompt and pointed answer does not turn away wrath. That he does not get sleepy the same moment that you do. That there are letter drop-boxes on the near-by corners. That you should not expect him to light the fire in the morning. That you can’t keep books, and there is no use of your trying. That he expects you to look your best when you go out with him. That it does not improve his razor to use It for chiropodical purposes. That house-hunting is not reckoned by the average man as a pastime. That 8 p. m. is 60 minutes past 7 o’clock, not 15 minutes to 9.

WITHOUT THE COW Batter and Cheese Can be Easily Made Says a Scientist- Willard G. Day, of Baltimore, is sail io have discovered away to make but ter and cheese without the aid of a cow. Honey has been made without the co-operation of the bee, and that fact caused Mr. Day to think, wfth the above result. He has also produced an electric light radiation strong enough do kill any microbe that ever spread itself. His product will never spoil on this account, because the little germs, which feed on the same vegetables as the cow does, and which causes milk and butter to lose their mercantile value, through the agency of time, will be destroyed in the process. The scientist started out with the knowledge that the kind of food on which the cow is fed and the kind of microbe nourished at the roots of this food produce the different traits in various frauds of butter. He began his experiments by extracting and then assembling artificially the same products which are brought about by nature He produced from the vegetables oils which differed but slightly from those found in the animal kingdom, and from that point proceeded to give the vegetable oil the same character istics found in the animal oil—that is, he made oils out of grass. That is where the electricity cimes in. Day discovered that animal and vegetable carbohydrates strongly, re semble one another and the differences existing in the oils are due to the nitrogenous sheaths which inclose the globules of oil. This sheath gives to the various animal oils their character istic odors. If the oils could be separated from the sheath without crushing the latter the odor would be absent. In ordinary h* bent or by hydraulic pressure, the nitrogenous characteris tics of the globule sheath are imparted to the oil and it is impossible to sepa rate them afterwards. Day discovered that by the use of the radiant energy of an electric light of high potentiality these sheaths could be made to shrivel up while the oil which they contained could then be extracted by slight pressure, free horn the characteristics of the animal or plant from which they are derived. Did Not Do Miracles. A little town near Providence boasts a church whose pastor, besides being an eloquent preacher, is a man of stal wart proportions. At one of his even ing prayermeetings the services were disturb'd by two young men, who au dibly scuffed at everything they saw or heard. Finally the pastor remon strated with them on their behavior, and asked them why they attended the meeting. “We came expecting to see miracles performed,” impudently replied one of the rascals. Leaving the desk and walking quietly down life aisle, the pastor seized one after the other by the collar, and, as they disappeared out of the door, remarked: “We don’t perform miracles here, but we do cast out devils.”—Boston Globe. * In Olden Times People overlooked the importance of per manently beneficial effects and were satis fied with transient action; but now that it is generally known that Syrup of Figs will permanently overcome habitual constipa tion, well-informed people will not buy other laxatives, which act for a time, but finally injure the system.

Great Gold Possibilities. The rich gold deposits of the Klon dike, which have occasioned such a sensation, are known as placer depos its; that is, the gold is found in free dust, mixed with gravel. The process of extracting the gold consists merely in separating the gravel and the gold dust by washing or “panning.” Gold doea not “grow,” or otherwise come into existence, in such deposits. It first exists in quartz and nuggets, and by the action of glaciers, streams or other agencies is ground into duet and drifted to the placer pockets, or de posits. When the Klondike placer discoveries were first made the old gold hunters and the scientists expressed tbe opinion that it was probably only a matter of time when the “mother lode,” from which the dust found had come, would be discovered, and they believed it would be very rich. • A few days ago reports were received from the Klondike country leading to the belief that the “mother lode” has been discovered, and that expectations with regard to it will probably be real* ized. It is alleged that quartz which will assay as much as SIOO,OOO to tbe ton has been-taken out near tbe base of a mountain peak known as “Tbe Dome,” at tie source of El Dorado creek. The deposit was found some thirty feet below under a muck and alluvium deposit. This, it is believed, is but one vein of the “mother lode,” and that others will come to light iu tbe near future. The reputed richness of the quartz, of course, is still a matter of doubt,but wheu it is borne in mind that in some of the placer deposits of the Klondike the yield has been from $lO to SIOO to the pan, it does not tax reason to be lieve that the source of the supply is very rich indeed. If the deposits should prove very extensive, and as valuable as has been reported—or only half as valuable—it s evident that the movement to the gold fields would be greatly augment ed, and it ia possible that the opera lions on the deposits during the next few years would have marked t fleet in tbe markets for the precious metals. Tbe newly discovered deposits, how ever, are not so readily available as the placer deposits which are now being laid under contribution To extract gold from quartz necessitates the use of more or less heavy machinery. At present there is no means, or only very crude means, of transportation to tbe gold fields. However, should the ear lier reports of the rich find be verified, it is assured that human ingenuity would devise some means of getting the gold out. With gold, glittering gold, in sight, the mind of man does not admit that there are insurmount able obstacles to securing it.—Savan nah News Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portjpn of the ear. There is only one way to care deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroy ed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. Ciienev & Co., Toledo, O.

I employed an old physician and then went to Kentucky. I then went to Hot Springs and remained two months. Noth ing seemed to cure me permanently, al though temporary relief was given me. I returned home a ruined man physically, with but little prospect of ever getting well I was persuaded to try Botanic Blood Balm (B. B.
