SIGNS OF THE PLANETS AT
TIMES OF BIRTH.
They Do Not Exert an Influence Over
Life, but Indicate Events Likely
to Occur—Comes from ths Egyp
tians.
HE planets do not
exert an influence
over life. Their
position at the time
of a person’s birth
only indicate what
that life is likely to
be. The science
has come down to
us from the earliest
ages of man, and
was one of the fore-
most arts in the days of the supremacy
of Egypt. Two hundred years ago its
revival began. Its progress has been
steady, especially in England and the
United States. The most enlightened
minds of the century arc giving it
special study, and its popularity is
again in the ascendant.
The free readings in these columns
should not be confounded with fortune
telling. The most cultured in the land
study astrology. No sensible person
takes notice of fortune-tellers or for
tune-telling. The popularity of our
free readings attest the esteem in
which the science is held. Letters
come from physicians, lawyers, bank
ers and merchants. Applicants for read
ings are again reminded that full name
and address of sender must accompany
every letter. Also date, hour and place
of birth. If the applicant does not
know the hour of birth he or she should
send for special instruction by mail.
Persons not wishing their readings
published in regular order can have
them forwarded by mail. Mail read

SUPREME JUSTICES' GOWNS.
Our Karly Statesmen’s Task In Selecting
a Court Dress.
Ex-President Harrison tells of the
contention created over the question
of an appropriate court dress for the
justices of the Federal supreme court
in the January Ladies’ Home Jour
nal. "When the constitutional or
ganization of the court had been set
tled and the high duty of
Justices had been performed by Wash
ington,” he says, "the smaller, but not
wholly unimportant question of a court
dress loomed up, and much agitated
and divided the minds of our public
men. Shall the justices wear gowns?
And if yea, the gown of the scholar, of
the Roman senator, or of the priest?
Shall they wear the wig of the English
Judges? JefTerson and Hamilton, who
had differed so widely in their views as
to the frame of the constitution, were
again in opposition upon these ques
tions relating to millinery and hair
dressing. Jefferson was Against any
needless official apparel, but if the
gown was to carry, he said: "For
heaven’s sake discard the monstrous
wig which makes the English judges
look like rats peeping through bunches
of oakum.’ Hamilton was for the Eng
lish wig with the Eiglish gown. Burr
was for the English gown, but against
the ‘inverted woolsack termed a wig.’
The English gown was taken and the
wig left, and I am sure that the flowing
black silk gown still worn by the Jus
tices helps to preserve in the court
room that dignity and sense of so
lemnity which should always charac
terize the place of Judgment.”
In the Wrong Town.
She looked like a woman from a re
mote tier of townships and the way in
which she was dressed tended to con
firm that impression. She seemed in
a world of trouble and approached the
floor-walker.
“See here, mister,” she said nervous
ly, "I’ve been robbed in this here
store. Josh ’lowed me to come down
here to do my shoppin’ ’cause it would
be a savin’. I had S3O five minutes
ago, an’ now I hain’t got a cent. O,
dear! I’m more’n a hundred miles
from hum with no way to get back an’
nothin’ to eat;” and the woman buried
her face in a handkerchief, while
threatening to collapse.
"You’d better report the matter to
the police at once. Or I’ll attend to
that for you.”
“Not on your tin-type,” she respond
ed quickly. “I’m no Rube.” Then she
gathered herself and between artis
tically executed -sobs asked that she
be lent enough to keep her over night
and take her back to Josh.
But she had tipped her hand. The
floor-walker led- her back to the office
and in the long bag within her dress
skirt was found a choice collection of
dry goods. She made the air sul
phurous and at the police station pro
claimed herself a "jay” for leaving
Chicago, where there seems to be a
special immunity for the transgressor.
Vula« of Evidence In Turkey.
A few years ago an English traveller
in Turkey reported a case of stealing
as it was tried in the courts of that
country. The Armenian newspapers ol
that time, commenting upon the case,
said that it proved that the testimony
of a calf was worth more than that ol
two Christians. A Turk, conveting a
cow belonging to a Christian, succeed
ed in stealing it. The owner com
plained of the theft to the nearest
judge, bringing a friend to corroborate
his story, and he demanded the resto
ration of his property. The judge de
clined to believe either the injured man
or his friend. On this the injured man
said, "I have the calf of this cow at
a place very near the court, and if your
honor will have the cow brought to the
calf and will observe the two togeth
er, he will immediately perceive by
their affection for each other that the
cow must be the mother of the calf,
and this will prove that she belongs to
me.” Accordingly, the judge ordered
the cow to be brought to the calf, and
went himself to see the two. No soon
er had the calf set eyes on the cow
than it claimed her as mother. The
judge was convinced, and ordered the
cow to be given up to the Christian.
To Make a Neat Patch.
Here is an uncommon way of mend
ing a silk or woolen garment in which
a hole has been worn, and where only
a patch can remedy matters. The
frayed edges around the tear should
be carefully smoothed out and any
long threads trimmed off. Moisten a
piece of the material with- very thin
mucilage and place it under the tear.
Lay this part of the garment on a flat
surface and place a level weight upon
the tear and let it remain until the
mucilage is perfectly dry. The patch
will scarcely be perceptible.
Monkey »ml Kitten.
Herr Brehm, the great German nat
uralist, relates the following droll an
ecdote of a monkey: "A female baboon
which I brought up in my family got
hold of a kitten with the intention of
making a pet of it and mothering it,
but was scratched by the terrified
foundling. The monkey carefully ex
amined the kitten’s paws, pressed the
claws forward, looked at them from
above, from beneath, and from the side,
and then bit them off to secure itself
against further scratches.”

"Have you anything to say?” in
quired the sheriff.
"Only one thing,” said the con
demned man, as he loosened the noose
so that he could speak with more ease;
“I want you to catch that man with the
snapshot camera and throw him out. I
do not want to be disgraced by any
amateur photographers.” —Truth.
Frozen Feet fninrd Their Arrest.
John lAwaon and Howard Hawley
were arrested at Detroit, Tuesday, for
the murder of Farmer John Brown,
of Millington, Mich. They had become
badly frozen riding on the bumpers of
freight cars and applied at the hospital
for relief.

TROOPS RE-CALLED.
LEADVILLE FORCE CUT DOWN.
Governor Adznn ITpon the Advloo of
Sheriff O’Mahoney Reduce* the Militia
on Guard One-half—Further K< due
tloni I’robable.
Denver, Jan. 30.—At five o’clock yes
terday afternoon Governor Adams sent
orders over the telephone to Adjt. Gen.
Moses, authorizing him to send home
one-half of the national guard force
now on duty in the city and about the
mines. He took this action at the re
quest of Sheriff Thomas F. O’Mahoney
of Lake county. On the preceding eve
ning the governor instructed General
Moses to abolish the brigade head
quarters in the military district of
Leadvllle, and that warlike institution,
with all its paraphernalia, is now a
thing of the past.
Upon his arrival in Leadvllle yester
day morning the adjutant general pro
ceeded to give effect to the order of ills
commander-in-chief. Brig. Gen. Brooks
n.ud his staff were relieved from duty;
the headquarters at the Vemlnine hotel
were given up, and Colonel H. R. Mc-
Coy of the Second infantry regiment
took command i»f the camp. He will
remain in command, retaining wliat
troops are left behind, until further de
velopment's In the strike situation war
rant his relief and the relief of all hut
a comparatively small nAmber of men.
From now on, unless new outbreaks
or Indications of violence occur, the re
duction of the militia force in the
Leadvllle district will he made by in
stallments and with safe graduation.
It is understood that within a reason
ably short period, perhaps- sooner than
many people expect, the men under
pay will bo cut down to a provost
guard of 35 members. These, while
having a marshal in command of them,
will he practically under the charge of
Sheriff O'Mahoney. In nil likelihood
Companies E and F of Denver, in skel
eton form, will constitute tills ultimate
fragment of the army of occupation
which began pouring into Leadvllle on
the day after the Emmet and Coronado
mines were attacked.
At present it is impossible to state
the exact number of state soldiers who
will remain in Leadvllle after yester
day’s order lias been given its full ef
fect. The governor’s estimate was
that about 100 men would be relieved
from active service. This, too, was
the figure Paymaster General Harry
T. Davis gave. In five or six days all
the militia not on duty in the mining
camp will bo paid off in Denver, and
from then on the expense of the mili
tary arm of the law In Leadvllle is go
ing to he unimportant.
The step taken yesterday by Gover
nor Adams was approached with vwry
great caution. It was only after he
had been fully assured that no evil re
sults would arise as a consequence c-f
it that the governor consented to bisect
the Leadville troops. Tills assurance
was given by Sheriff O’Mahone.v
and others who know the situation nnd
had direct interests in its every turn.
On his part, the Lake county sheriff
took thought and care for the future
liefore suggesting further withdrawal
of his military allies. Before leaving
Leadvllle for Denver on Thursday
night he held a conference with the
officers of Cloud City Miners’ Union.
They gave him tiie most solemn kind
of pledges that they would do every
thing 1n their power towards prevent
ing lawlessness of every kind in the
camp, and would aid him in every way
in the performance of Ids duties.
Tie has all the time had the aid and
counsel of the mine owners and busi
ness men of the district. "The situa
tion now is this.” said Sheriff O’Mn
honey: "The troops, the city marshal,
the citizens and myself are all pulling
together in the interests of all the peo
ple of Lake county, and I am satisfied
that we can maintain ponce and good
order.”
PASSED WOLCOTT'S BILL.
Only K. nr Senator* Object to It* Adoption.
Washington, .Tnn. 30.—Ry the decis
ive vote of 40 to 4 the Senate yesterday
passed the bill for the appointment of

monetary conference. The closing of
the debate brought out several notable
speeches, Including those of Mr. Iloar
of Massachusetts. Mr. Vilas. Mr. Jones
of Arkansas. Mr. Gorman. Mr. Alli
son and Mr. Carter of Montana. It
disclosed the fact that little opposition
existed against the bill, the only divis
ion being as to the expediency of seek
ing bimetallism through international
agreement. As voicing the general
view on the Democratic side, Mr.
Jones and Mr. Gorman favored Jts
adoption exactly as Republicans de
sired. In order that the responsibility
might be theirs. Mr. Hoar’s speech at
tracted attention and was one of the
most noteworthy utterances of the vet
eran senator made in recent days. lie
spoke of his observations in Europe
during last summer, his agreeable dis
cussions with M. Mel Inc and M. Bour
gereau in Paris, and Mr. Balfour in
Iyomlon, on tin* advance of bimetallism.
Mr. Hoar expressed the conviction that
the four great nations, the United
States, Great Britain, France and
Germarty, • were fast and Inevitably
tending toward a bimetallic agreement.

Washington. .Tan. 2D.—The marriage
settlement between Miss Bonaparte of
Washington and Count Adam do
Moltke Huitfeldt of Denmark, who
were recently married with so much
ceremony here, is an interesting docu
ment. It was signed the day before

HUNGRY MEN STOLE.
The Chicago I’oor lining Fmt, Do Not Com
mlt Crime.
Chicago, Jan. 20.—One result of tin*
relief work of the police department
and wldch had not been planned, is a
great decrease in crime. According to
reports from the various police sta
tions the number of arrests lias de
creased from fifteen to fifty per cent,
and In some districts even more, since
the distribution of food, clothing and
fuel began Monday morning.
The decrease in crime Is most notice
able In the "levee" district. Usually in
extreme cold weather there is an in
crease in tiie number of arrests In this
district, nnd tiie change in the order of
affairs brings Joy to tiie heart of Cap
tain Koch of tiie Harrison street sta
tion nnd to Chief Biulenoch nnd to
Mayor Swift. Justices Underwood ami
Richardson, who try the police cases at
that station, laid only ten eases each
yesterday. They usually try from 150
to 300 a day. In t’lio Maxwell street
district the decrease in the number of
arrests is about thirty per cent., and in
the other big police districts the same
percentage holds good.
‘There is no longer any need for a
hungry man to go out and hold up an
innocent man or woman,” said Gap
tain Koch yesterday. “All lie has to
do is to go to the nearest police station
and ask for food, nnd it Is given him.
In addition, if lie is badly clothed nnd
needs better wearing apparel, his
wants in that line are almost sure to
l>e satisfied. Why shouldn’t there be a
decrease in crime?”
According to Mayor Swift the police
of Chicago have come nearer solving
the problem of affording instant relief
to the suffering of a great city than
any agency which ever before attempt
ed that problem. He said:
“We are probably at the beginning
of a new era in the method of dealing
with tiie poor. Never, before has any
association or any lot of charity so
cieties done what tiie police of this
city have accomplished since Monday.
The police department of Chicago, with
its 3,000 men and thorough discipline,
has almost accurate knowledge of the
real condition of the suffering. 'Hie po
lice also know the deserving from the
undeserving poor, the professional
from the unprofessional applicants for
relief.
‘This work of relief shows the de
partment to the people in an entirely
new light. The pat ml wagon during
the last three days has become a wel
come sight in all tiie streets of the
poorer districts. In many of which
heretofore its advent lias been tin* sig
nal for cursing. Tills work of relief by
tiie police may be the agency for good
in away Which is almost beyond com
prehension. It may prevent, perhaps,
a time of pillage, it may head off bread
riots, it may put a veto on tiie effort of
any unprincipled man or set of men to
begin a. period of sacking nnd burning.
And yet. when you come to think of it.
tiie relief afforded is only humanltar
lan.”
