VOTED DOWN.

The House, having heard from
the country concerning its orgies
the other evening,was not so "hilar-
ious" when the question of increas-
ing the pay Of its members came up
again. The whole proposition for
the increase of salries was voted
down on Friday night by vote OF
12l to So, and there was no "deri-
sive laughter" during the proceed
ing. General Butler, finding it was
no laughing matter, changed his
vote from aye to no in order to Sc
cure the opportunity of a motion tc
reconsider, when he moved to ad
journ. which latter motion was car.
ried and so the scheme has another
chance for existence. Twenty-nine

THE M AL SERVICE.

The Cleveland Herald says:
''Since the mails have been brought
by railroads we do not remember
greater disorganization of the new
paper service than during the pres
ent winter. 1t is a very unsual oc
currence for any of our exchange:
to reach US within several hours o.
the proper time. New England and
Washington papers arrive in batch.
es of three days issues. New York
papers are almost Invariably a day
or even more, behind. Southern
papers are regularly behind, and pa.
pers from distant Western points
come at hap-hazard, while many pa
pers do not seem to come at all.'
To certain extent the same is true
in this quarter.

BuRNING.0F THE GIRLS INDUSTRIAL
SCHOOL,

On Monday of last week the build
ing used by the Girls Industrial
School at White Sulpher7 Springs,
nine miles from Delaware, o., was
completely destroyed by fire. The
young girls to the number of $50,
were assembled in the chapel with
their teacher. The entertainment
was cut short by the cry of fire,
when all rushed to the lawn, where
a scene of the widest confusion fol-
lowed. In some places groups of
girls were gathered with their arms
around each others necks, crying and
bemoaning the fate that had befal-
len their home, which they loved
most te nderly. The contents of
the building were soon strewed up
on the lawn, but before the fire was
put out sparks from the flames set
fire to the bedding and other COM
bustible materials, which were al
most totally destroyed.

Paper Car Wheels.

1t is stated that a Connecticut rail
road is about to make a trial of the
so-called paper car-wheels. These
wheels are costly, but run safely ant
easily; they have been known some
time to car builders, but their intro
ductlon into general use has been
prevented by the expense. Sheets
OF common straw paper are forced
INTO acompact mass bya pres sire OF
500 tons. The mass of paper is turn
ed perfectly round,and by apressure
of25 tons Il hub is forced into hole
in the center. This paper wheel: by a
pressure of 230 tons,is next forced
into a steel tire with l 4 bevel upon
its inner circumference. Two circular
iron plates are then bolted on to the
tire to Keep the paper filing in place
by this arrangement the steel tire
rests upon the paper only, and par
takes OF its elasticity. 1t is claimed
that these wheels wear longer than
those OF any other description, ,iniure
tlc track less, and run with less
noise.

SOME Snow.

sThere5is some snow in Utah. The

"Ageatleman down from Grizzly

twelve to thirty feet deep on the lev
ell, and that q man could sink down
twenty to twenty-five feet almost
anywhere on the hillside without
striking gravel" -

THE MOOOC AFFAIR,

Just as anticipated, the Modoc af-
fair is beginning to assume a semi
ludicrous aspect, which at any mo
ment however, may change to the
sanguinary. The squaw sent by the
Peace Commissioners to interview
Captain Jack has returned and Civ
en- information that the Modocs are
desirous of having a ''big talk with
the Commissioners. Captain Jack
was uncertain whether or not all the
gentlemen sent to parley with him
"had good hearts, but he was will
ing, nevertheless, TO hear what
they had to say, probably believing
that if the portion of their anatomy
indicated. was not up to the stan
dard, their sealps were in proper con-
dition. p,i4f sm .f % i-7-esre -
The Modocs evidently believe that
they have thoroughly intimidated
the Government-yet they are in
elined to be merciful. Though pro-
Tossing that they can now fire ten
shots where they fired one before,
they are willing to treat with the
Commissioners. awe have not got
mad yet" said one of them boast
fully to a representative Of the Com
mission;;''if We had, your houses
would not be standing now." All.
of which is decidedly cool. Mani
festly, the Indians believe they have
the upper hand, and will only hold
conference as victors. And this is
what has come to pass through the
excessively tender peace policy of
the authorities at Washington.

GOOD ADVICE.

The Washington Republican says
''The Republican party cannot afford
to do as its opponents have done, i
it would prepetutate its rule. Re
publicanIsm means reform; it mean,
advancement, morally and politi
cally, and, if some who should have
fallen by the wayside. the party mus
march on without them. 1t is to bt
hoped there will be wisdom and
courage enough to do it,
