Emergenoy matters, such aa injunctions and habeas corpus proceedings, are : not subject to this rule. Hence these motions will not be argued until September, and no pleal will be-entered until after tha court has passed on the questions raised. . Judge Bears Jiald In the Book case that the grand Jury was a legally eon. stltuted body, and that the Indictments found by It were good. . An anneal to the supreme court In olvlng tha validity of the grand Jury, It Is said, would result only la delaying the trials, for should the supreme eourt hold that tha grand Jury was not legal It would be within the power of Die- trtct Attorney Manning to Indict them himself, sitting as a granff lury. " . So,1 should tha Indicted man be re leased n a technicality by a supreme eourt decision, they would immediately be reindicted estd arreated on the same charges by the district attorney, for Mr. Manning has already declared hie Intention to prosecute vigorously in men Indicted for participation' la the election frauds. " It Is thought that the notions of these men Indicate clearly that they Intend to avail themselves Of every delay the law permits. Those who Sled motions to quash tha Indictments against them were: B. F. Boynton, A. E. French, A. It. Dlmtck, a r. Place, T. R. Baldwin. W. P; Jacks, H. F. Labrecque,. J. W. Reed. Morton Bell. Alfred Drill and F. C. Holland. The two who will plead September 1 are John Schneider and O. W. Olson. No motions for tha last two men have yet been Sled. . AU Indications are for cooler weather. Tha thunderstorm of this morning, while It brought little rain anywhere, extended all the 'way from Albany to Portland and henoa cleared the atmos phere of the entire northern part .of the Willamette valley. "Even without rain," said the weather man. "a thunderstorm will always clar ify the air. It shakes out ths dust, so to speak, and makes people breathe easier.

' --And - yet - why- should - It- need a de fense? Our wise men from away back havs bean blatantly Insisting cn Nat ural Selection and ths Survival of ths Fittest. If, then, a phrase has become hackneyed. It la because It has survived; and If it has survived. It Is because It Is the fittest; and why dsfsnd the fit test T Take, for . Instance, - the expression "Her alabaster neok." This expression has been condemned by litterateurs, scorned ef authors, and Jestsd abouf by the runny men, Tet le it not adequate In description T The Imaginative reader does not think of the coldness and hard ness of the alabaster; he well knows It ts a mere figure of speech. To his wind comee thst!euahipf eiaulalle pearly whiteness and ths satin smoothness of alabaster, and though he has never in his life seen a piece of the Substance, hs realises at once its adaptability as a word-picture of feminine flesh. More over, he ecccpts without question the fact that the writer usee the term as Sxpresslve ef a beautiful substancs to suggest Mother beautiful aubetanee. and this Is legitimate and satisfactory. Again, to an imagination capable of further flights, alabastsr connotee beau tiful shapes, such ss Qreek Vases cr classic urn a. This docs not suggest ic htm that tha woman's neck is shaped like sa urn; It only fills his mind with Indefinite beautiful Images. Ws ere also criticised snd ridiculed for announcing that e heroine Is pos sessed cf "an Indescribable charm." this phrass is surely its own excuse for be ing. Since the- heroine's charm ic In describable, what remains but tc cay co end be done with HT - Te do otherwise would be gilding refined sold and paint ing the lily, and tt is impossible, bc sldec. The phrase Is- Incontrovertible truth, and therefore se In per tollable as ths world Itself. "She burst Into tsars" Is else con demned. Now. how foolish te ' object to that) No one Is so utterly silly ss te think the woman really burst, snd If shs did. it would be Into bits or frs msnts, and not Into tears. But ths word burst, In this connection gives a graphto picture Cf the sudden explosive effects with which the feminine nature la wont te begin a crying spell. .. . And so with sii the phrases con demned es hackneyed by. our thought- lees and superficial wiseacres, each may be analysed end found to contain the elements bf truth, beauty, snd a speoiali Cross Shows o SUSHIS fitness which tasks the reason and ths right of thslr 'survival. ' To adduce ene more Instance, 1st us refer tc "The groom was attired In an elegant suit ef black." Though dis dained by cur mushroom aristocracy of letters, this statement has everything to recommend both its manner and mat ter. . . ...... ... . Tc begin with. It la a deed of charity, for la eases cut of le It Is ths only recognition cf any sort that the bride groom reoelvea la the whole affair. The mere mention of him Is a distinct bene- flcenoe. It Is also a graceful eompll ment to refer to his raiment, While oolumn are devoted todetailedde. ccrlptlon cf the robes worn by the bride, her attendants, and her relatives and guests, ts it not meet that the bride groom's wearing apparel should have at least It words of mention T Why, an ordinary telegram would gnve that much. And so. having proved that the hack' neyed phrase needs ae defense. -and ts a gjery and honor te cur language, iet us defend it vigorously and at au tunas. COVETED POSITION.

A maid or honor's day commences im mediately after ths queen has break fasted. Though her majesty's privaje secretary will sec tc the bulk of the correspondence the morning's post has brought, there will still remain many tetters of a more or less confidential and private nature, which the queen will an swer personally, . through one cf her ladles In waiting.
