It reverses the decision of Judge Brown of the Marion Circuit Court, and holds constitutional the act of 1893 which requires school trustees to make return of unexpended tuition balances. It holds that the tuition revenues, when they reach the hands of a school trustee or school corpora-; tion, are commingled, and must be ] so, held by them and paid out exclu-1 sively for teachers’ salaries without | reference to the source from which j the several items constituting such j tuition revenues were received.

He has contributed j leberally toward the success of the j republican party. Mr. Brown en- ■ listed in the Union army at the age | of Hi,and carried a musket in defense of the Union. He was a charter member of Isham Keith Post G. A.R. at Columbus.

Printers’ Ink has been compiling some queer names of newspapers. Among those merely unpronounceable are Sinasapa Wocekiyo Taeyaupaha of Fort Totten, N. D.; Ojczyna of Cleveland, Yhdyswaltain Sanomain Kuvalohti of Harbor, O. Names which are odd for other reasons are cited by Mr. Homer. The Goalkeeper is English; The Beekeeper is American: so is The Milk He porter. England Iras a policeman’s organ.! The Constabulary Correspondent. : Another is The Buck-Iu-the-Park; another The Bell New s, the organ or the hell ringers. New York has a School, England a Schoolmaster and Schoolmistress. The Urn is a funeral directors' organ. The Einbahnere’ Monthly and Modern Cemetery are other cheerful organs.

MOLECULAR LIFE IN DIAMONDS. j The Flashing Civnin Declared to l!o Musses of Liionnotiitly Active Atom*. If you think your polished diamond is n more aggregation of inauimaio crystals, you are away wrong If you imagine that its components are devoid of orderly, coherent motion, you are equally mistaken. It has come to pass that we are given to un-(let-stand that diamonds aro masses of active molecules. Inasmuch as every compact body is composed of multitudes of exceedingly small yet not indistinguishable molecules, it might be concluded that in a solid at least these particles would bo clustered together in an indivisible mass. This theory as applied to diamonds is incorrect and has been completely overthrown by the researches and experimentations of Sir Robert Bad of Liverpool. The facts set forth by Mr, Ball with reference to the structure of the diamond are fascinating. Ho asserts that were the sensibility of our eyes increased so as to make them a few million times more powerful it would lie seen that the diamond atoms which form the perfect gem, when aggregated in sufficient myriads, aro each in a condition of rapid movomentof the most complex description. Each molecule would bo seen swing-1 ing to and fro with the utmost violence among the neighboring molecules and quivering from the shocks it receives from encounters with oth-1 er molecules, which occur millions of times in each second. The hardness ! and impenetrability so characteristic would at first sight seem to refute the supposition that it is no more than a cluster of rapidly moving particles, but the well known hnpene- '■ trability of the gem arises from the j fact that when attempt is made to 1 press a steel point into a stone it fails I because the rapidly moving mole-1 cules of the stone batter the metal with such extraordinary vehemence that they refuse to allow it to peue- ! trate or even to mark the crystallized surface. When glass is cut with a diamond, ' the edge which seems so hard is really composed of rapidly moving atoms. The glass which is cut is also merely a mass of moving molecules, and what seems to happen is that as the diamond is pressed forward its several particles by their superior vigor drive the little particles of glass out of the way.—New York Herald. Th« Nam® of California. Thomas E. Sloven, LL. D., in a lecture.on the -'Origin of the Name California.” said: The word California was first used in a work on Spanish chivalry published in 1510. This work was an alleged history of the adventures of "Aniadis of Gaul and his'sou Esplandiam.” It was of great length and divided into a great number of short stories, one of widely was the manner in which "Oalifla, the queen of the island of California, a country inhabited only by women, who lived as amazons and had gold without end." saved Constantinople from.an attack 1 >y the Persians. This story, as well as others, was widely read by the people of Spain, and by many regarded as fact. Among the stanch believers were the members of the Cortez expedition, who, upon landing upon the peninsula of lower California, imagined that they were ofi an island, which, owing to its apparent riches, they named after the fabled isle, and Cortez himself called the new country “California."-—Saa Francisco Chronicle.

HOW TO LIE IN BED. Tho Inf!:tcoc« Sixertod by the Centrlfucml | Force Developed by the Earth. | In what direction should the lied bo placed? Is their any advantage in arranging it in any one direction? It would seo'rn so, says a Portuguese paper, to j udge by the observations of M. Charles Mussott on tho action of tho rotation of tho earth on trees and plants. An examination of hundreds of trees has led to the discovery that. the trunk is not exactly round, but bulges toward tho east, the western side being slightly fiat. It is the same with tint branches. Thismark-, ed tendency to an increased bulk toward the east is ascribed to the rotation of the earth. It is generally known that every revolving body develops what is: called centrifugal force. The earth j develops a tfemendous amount of this force, which tends to drive all bodies on its surface from west to east, and although .such bodies may | be too heavy to be moved the forco ■ exists none tho leas and affects it. in | some way. It is explained that tho reason why some waterfalls incline toward a particular- side is because the centrifugal force of tho earth acts upon them. In the same way M. Musset says that tho sap of the trees is gradual 1” driven toward the east, causing the trees to develop more, on that side, j Now, what has this to do with the position of onr bedsteads ? A great | deal. Every individual who remains in a fixed position for several Lours falls under tho influence..of centrif-1 ugal force, which will tend to drive the liquids in his body from west to east. If, therefore, the individual’s bed is arranged so that Lis head is toward ; tho oast, there is a tendency on tho i part of the blood to flow toward the 1 bruin. He sleeps mi easily and is less fresh when ho awakes. If his feet are toward theeast, his sleepis peaceful. Should his bedstead bo placed; north to south, he should lie with hia head to the north, as the centrifugal force acts from north to. south in our hemisphere. One Pifltnr® »f I!.11. An English dramatist in one of,his works represents a man in a dream talking with several of his departed ancestors. One of these told the man that ho was in hell, though there way. no such place as heaven or hell in th& way in which these terms were commonly understood. This man’s hell was a condition of feeling in which he had no interest in anything. Ho ieltno enjoyment, no ambition., no pleasure, no passions, no desires. Ho could go to heaven, he said, if ho liked, but he bad no desire. Ho was not interested in anything he might find there or anywhere else. This condition is to a certain extent exemplified in club life, in society and in the general lives of the rich and idle. They have exhausted every source of enjoyment and' tapped, all fountains of enthusiasm. New schemes have to lie constantly provided to stimulate even a little their appetite for pleasure. Hell, according to this writer, is this condition carried to its extremity. It is a condition without hope, feeling, ambition or desires—one of the most horrible srate.s in which any man or woman could be placed. Tom Ue«Ml at School. Ex-Speaker Reed, when a boy, was tall and slender, with none of his present chubbiness. He was decidedly outspoken and noted for his indo- ! pendence. Once, while at school, he 1 gave a great bite to a red cheeked | apple and remarked at the same I time, "If any one knows why this I apple should not touch the lips of j Tom Reed, let him now speak or for1 ever after hold his peace." The birch ! rod of the master came out with promptness, and the pedagogue replied, "If any- one knows any reason why this rod should not warm the jacket of Tom Reed, let him speak now or forever after hold his peace.” —Exchange.
