FAIRBANKS HAS THREE
TRAGEDIES IX ONE DAY
Fairbanks, Aug. 14—With two
attempted murders aud a suicide,
'ill within two hours, tills city was
thrown into a st ite of feverish ex
citement yesterday, and the limited
force of United States deputy mar
shals were kept exceedingly busy.
The first tragedy occurred when
Charles Lindstrom, a Chatanika min
er, iu the presence ci his partner,
pickcd up a 30-40 rifle and shot
himself through the head.
While the deputy marshals were
investigating this suicide, a report
was received that two Italians had
engaged in a fight with knives.
They were separated by officers,
but not before both had been ser
iously wounded.
Returning to the courthouse, the
deputy marshals found Jim Katk
h.'.shl on the steps of the city jail,
slowly bleeding to death from a
pistol bullet wound which he Baid
he received at tho hands of an
other Japanese while the two wore
engaged iu a game of poker. His
alleged assailant has not yet boon
arrested.

Holland's Great Cheese Mart.
At Alktmin, the principal cheese
market of Holland, may be seen the
quaint old weigh house, erected In 1582.
Connected with the town clock in the
tower of this building hangs one of
those tinkling chimes which plays a
melody even stranger than those heard
in Amsterdam. It Is In this building
that all of the cheeses are brought
from the square In front to be official
ly weighed before they are delivered to
the purchaser and stowed away in the
packets or barges waiting near by In
the canal.
r THE OLD MASTERS.
Painting* Without Signatures Ara
Judged by Their Technic.
It appears that many of the works
of the old masters are not signed
Experts rarely rely on signatures alone
In determining the authenticity of an
old work, but trust rather to their
knowledge of the painter's technic,
says the Philadelphia Record.
l''alse signatures can be easily de
tected. Spirits of wine or turpentine
will usually remove a name of later
date than the painting. In the course
of time signatures often beet, ne very
difficult to find. Painted originally in
a shade slightly lighter than the
ground, perhaps, they sink In, darken,
and merge Into the ground color or
they are almost rubbed away by suc
cessive cleanings. Recognizable one
day In a specially favorable light, they
may not be visible again for weeks.
Experts speak of "wlll-o'-the-wisp"
signatures, and many collectors have
encountered accidental strokes and
cracks that tantallzlngly suggest a sig
nature, though It can never be made
definite. On the other hand, there have
tieen remarkable cases of such marks,
after careful study, resolving them
selves Into a famous -name.
Sometimes the painter's name Is most
conspicuous as, for example. In Ra
phael's "S|>osalIzIo" at Milan. Proud
of having surpassed his master, the
youthful genius wrote on a frieze in
the very center of tho canvas, "Raphael
Drblnas."
IteynoldB hardly ever signed his
work. But upon the completion of
the portrait of Mrs. Slddons as tne
Tragic Muse, he wrote his name large
on tho gold embroidery of her dress.
Ho was unable, ho said, "to resist the
temptation of sending my name to pos
terity on the hem of your garment"
PERJURY IN COURT.
It Is Quite Common and the Rules of
Evidence Favor It.
It Is a conservative averment that in
two-thirds of the cases tried In court
there la positive contradiction of facts.
There are few arguments made by ad
vocates In which bias and prevarica
tion on the part of witnesses are not
charged. Deplorably Immoral as well
as farcical is some of the evidence ad
duced in many cases where experts are
used on both sides to support diamet
rically opposed propositions.
Any Judge or practicing attorney
knows that seldom does a party to n
suit testify against his own interests
In the decisive matters affecting the
rights Involved. Although perjury may
not necessarily und invariably be pred
icated on these facts, yet they must
lead to the conclusion of sworn mis
statements In a large proportion of
cases, especially when we recall that
the oath of the witness requires him
not only to tell the truth and nothing
but the truth, but all the truth.
In this connection it is interesting to
remember that tho rules of evidence at
present and for centuries In the past,
enforced In our courts and English
courts, not only tend in 6plte of the
plain contest of the oath to prevent
the telling of all, but permit a witness
rather to conceal much that has somo
bearing In truth upon the matter nt
issue.
We are forced to recognize, then,
that perjury prevuils as a common and
crying evil.—Charles J. Martell In Case
and Comment
Flower uardens of tno Uea.
The sea has Its flower gardens, but
the blooms are not on plants as they
are on the land. It Is the animals of
the sea that make the gardens, tho
corals of the tropical waters particu
larly making a display of floral beauty
that fairly rivals the gorgeous coloring
and delicate grace presented by land
flowers. So closely do they resemble
plant blooms that It Is hard to believe
that they are wholly animal in organi
zation. A naturalist says that among
the coral gardens there are fishes of
curious forms and flashing colors dart
ing about just as the birds and butter
flies dart about plant gardens on land.
