A Rom Tax.
A "nose tax" was In the ninth cell
tary exacted by the Danes from tho
householders m Ireland. It was wo
called not because It was levied on
noses, but from the fact that a failure
to pay was punished by slitting the
nose from tip to eyebrow. It was con
tinued during thirteen years, when the
householders, objecting to this treat
ment of their nasal ornaments, rose In
rebellion, massacred all the Danes In
Ireland and put an end to the nose

MAV CLEAR STEVE ADAMS.
Crazy Miner Startles the Court With
a "Confession."
A special from Wallace, Idaho, says
of the development of the Adams mur
der trial:
'It Is the heart that moves the
hand. I am the man that killed Fred
Tyler. Turn all these other fIIows
loose, for I am the man that done the
deed."
This was the announcement which
startled Judge Wood's court this
morning. A small dark stranger with
long black hair nnd a stubby beard
was standing up beside Steve Adams,
proclaiming himself guilty of the crime
for which Adams Is on trial. A com
motion followed.
Mrs. Adams burst Into tears, Adams
himself turned pale. Seized by two
officers, the stranger was hurried
from the court room to the sheriffs
office. There he' said his name was
Patrick C. Ryan of Butte; that he
had just finished a term In the Deer
Lodge penitentiary.
After being released he said he had
gone to Burke, where Roosevelt's
daughter had told him to come to
Wallace and take charge of this case.
He said If Adams was convicted an
earthquake would destroy the Coeur
d'Alene. Ryan will be committed to
the asylum. Adams says he does not
know the man.
This morning's session of the court
was taken up mainly by Coroner
Keys at the preliminary hearing, the
attorneys having agreed to this meth
od, owing to the coroner's Illness. His
testimony relates largely to the con
dition of the body of Tyler and the
surroundings, where It was found In
tho woods.
While the defense still concedes Its
policy, signs have led to the prediction
that Adams' attorneys will endeavor to
cast doubt on the Identification of Ty
ler's body, and will also uphold the
theory that Adams was not In the
Marble Creek region at the time this
murder occurred. Adams Is begin
ning to show some signs of the se
vere strain, and at times appeal's wor
ried and uneasy. Mrs. Adams also has
given signs of nervousness as the
state masses Its evidence.
To Work on Grade.
A large force of men and teams In
the employ of the Pacific Coast Con

Eugene Turns Down the Paving of
the Asphalt Trust.
The Eugene Guard says of the
adoption of the bltullthlc paving for
that city:
Mayor Wilklns and the members
of the city council who went to Port
land one day last week to examine
the different kinds of pavement in
me on the streets there, with a view
of determining which Is the best ma
terial to be placed on Eugene's streets
havo returned.
While there has been no public
expression of the decision of the par
ty, if there has been any made, It la
understood that all are of the opin
ion that the bltullthlc pavement la
the best, and at the meeting of the
council tomorrow night It will be de
cided to use that material.
The bltullthlc has been In use in
Portland for the past four years and
has given splendid satisfaction there
On one street where the traffic Is
heavier than on any other street In
the city the bltullthlc has stood for
fcur years without the expenditure
of one cent for repairs, and It now
appears to be as good as when It was
nut down.
It Is said the cost of laying this
pavement In Eugene will be less than
In Portland because oi the cheap
ness of crushed rock here, and It will
no doubt last longer here than In
