It runs thus: When Atliiin nnil Eve foil, flod sent ('alirlcl, the Mnitynr ntiKt'l, to turn llii'in out of Eilon ns n puttlxhtnt'iit for their sin.

BULLETS AS EVIDENCE. Odd Farts Developed by TbrlrPrina. Inenee In Mnrilrr Trials, The Important part played In ninny murder trials by a flattened and mis shapen lilt of lead or steel, once In tho form of n bullet, often lends to the de velopment of some curious facts, says the Italtitnore A morion n. A leaden bul let will lose appreciably In weight by beliiR llred, nnd the form of the barrel may tend to reduce Its size. In a rifle some of the lend Is taken off by the grooves. The friction nlxo hents nnd tends tn partially melt the outsldo of the ball, and beenuse of this It chunges Its shnpo In tho air. One peculiar fact about a bullet Is thnt It will very often make a wound of entry smnller than the projectile Itself even In so brittle a substance ns glass. Another straiiKO fact nbout n bullet la thnt It will often puss through Inter vening clothing, making n hole that enn hnrdly be noticed, nnd yet carry on Its point n circular piece of cloth. The enr rylng of bits of clothing, lialr or dirt In to wounds in such n manner greatly enhances the dangers of peritonitis. Were it not for this latter contact tho bullet would not he nenrly so danger ous, ns its rnpld flight nnd heating make it practically sterile. lllaekeiied edges of wounds are more likely to have been caused by a lend bullet, although the hnll with a lend tip could also produce this result. Regard ing powder stains, smokeless or other wise, nothing of great value Is to be gn I nod when the shooting occurs at a distance greater than twelve or fifteen feet. At a recent trial a doctor stated that from powder innrks on the face he Judged thnt the shot bnd been fired at a distance of not more than three feet, which conclusion wns Inter bncked up by tho assertion mndo on the stand by tho prisoner himself. , Ilia Mother Took No Chances. She wns a portly danio, with florid complexion and voluminous skirts.

Saturday Even ing Post FIRST VIEW OF WHITE MEN The Rlfie and Rarnlaa- Glass frlcnt ened the Indians. It Is smnll wonder thnt the first view of a white man created terror ninong the superstitious Indians. A striking Instnneo of this occurred when the Wallnwnlln Indiana first saw Cnptnln Clark nf the Lewis nnd Clnrk expedi tion. Thinking to propitiate tho sav ages nnd nllny their fears of the white men, he planned to visit a village of the Wnllawnlliis before the arrival of the rest of bis party. With this end In view, he set out to cross the Columhlit river In a canoe, taking threo men with him. On the way he shot a era no nnd a duck, both of which fell near him. Ho landed be fore five wlgwnms placed close to ench other, but not a person wna visible, and the doors, which wre of tunt, were closed. Holding his pipe In hnnd, ns an Indication of good will, ho push ed aside one of the doors and entered the lodge. Inside were thirty men, women nnd children huddled together In terror. Ho went to them, shook each by the hnnd nnd said some friendly words, expressing by word and manner his kindly feeling. Their apprehensions were nllny oil until ho took out his burning glass nnd lighted his pipe by tlio rnys of tho sun. Consternation ngilln prevnlled, nnd what might hnve occurred but for the timely arrival of two chiefs who knew tho white men en nnnt be told.' It seems that the Indians hnd not seen Cnptnln Clark, but they had seen the white crime which he hnd shot fall Just before his appearance. They hnd also seen tho duck fall nt his shot. They connected the fall of the birds with his ndvent nnd thought he had fallen from the clouds. The sound of the rllle, which they hnd never before heard, they believed wns n signal to announce the white man's coming, flmnll wonder, then, that their hardly allayed fears wpro ngaln nrouscd when he brought down lire from heaven by mentis of his burn ing glass.
