KEEP YOUR TROUBLES SACRED.

wife of forty, whose life cannot all have
been sunshine, writes the following advice
to other married pairs:
Preserve sacredly the privacies of your
mouse your marriage state and your heart.
Let not father or mother, brother or sister,
nor any third person, even presume to come
IN between you two, or to share the joys and
sorro rs that belong to you alone, TO you
two. With Gods help build your own quiet
world, not allowing the dearest earthly friend
to be the confdant of aught that concerns
your domestic peace. Let moments of
alienation, If they occur, be healed at once.
Never no, never, speak of it outside, out
TO each other confess and all will come out
right. Never let the morrow's sun still
find you at variance. Renew or review the
VOW at all temptations-it will do you both
good. And thereby your souls will grow
together, cemented in that love which is
stronger than death and you will become
truly one. Thus do pray for every MAJ rled
pair.

To the Editor Of the Telegraph:
Farewell to my friends in Kenosha.
Years have passed away since walk
ed your streets little boy, and atten-
ded school with many Of you, who
were of my own age. During my
stay in Kenosha you have made it
very pleasant for me, and in the years
to come there will be- no prouder
memories in my mind than those of
Frank Fl. Lyman, and the many
young men who have shown ne the
hospitalitles of their homes during
my stay in this place. When the
Tides of Lake Michigan cease to ebb
and flow, when the winds Of Heaven
are hushed into perpetual silence,
when the clouds no longer thunder,
when earth's electric bolts are no
longer felt or heard, when her inter
nal fires go out, then and not until
then, will | forgetyou and yours. And
should any Of you ever 60 west to
grow up with the country, you have
only to mention KENosHA, and you
Will have a place in my home and
heat [ remain a friend and we'll
wisher to you all. PIP. PECK,

RAILROAD DECISION OF THE SUPREME
COURT.

The decision of the Supreme Court IL the
railroad cases is, in brief, that the railroad
companies, chartered under State Law,
should obey the railroad laws of the State.
and that if the Milwaukee & Prairie du Chen
r. r. was chartered by the Territorial law.
it was excepted, but ii found to be chartered
by State law it was not excepted. It would
now seem that the Milwaukee 81 Prairie du
Chein K. r. was constructed under State law,
but that the old Milwaukee and Waukesha
railroad was constructed under Territorial
law, and consequently that about one half
of the Milwaukee and Prairie du Chen r. T..
would be excepted from the writ of iniunc-
ton.
If this is the decision it would seem that.
in the opinion of the Court, the power to
alter or amend charters of corporations was
created by the constitution. If so, the opin-
ION is clearly wrong. The people gave
whatever the constitution gives. The power
must reside in the people, else the people
could not give the power 10 the constitution.
ana before giving the power TO Inc consIltu-
ton the people of the Territory could not
ALLEVIATE the power from the people. Nor
could one Legislature OF the Territory pass
al unalterable or irrepealable law by future
Legislature of the Territory or State. The
sovereign power always resides in the people
and can never be given or taken away. The
very fact that law Is necessary to enable
corporation or person to construct rail-
road is evidence that railroad law is alter
able or repealable at the pleasure and by the
power that passed it. SO there should be
and can be no exceptions In favor Of railroads
constructed under territorial laws in Wiscon.

Little Things.

The prsciousness oflfttle things was
never more beautifully expressed than
in thefollowing moroccan BY B. F. Tay-
lor:
Little martin-boxes Of homes are
generally the most happy and cosy;
little villages are nearer to being atoms
OF shattered paradise than anything we
know Of; and little fortunes 5ring the
host content, and little hopes the least
disappointments.
Little words are the sweetest to hear;
little charities fly tMrthest, and stay
longest on the wing; little lakes are
the stilTest, little hearts the fIllest' and
little farms the best titled. little books
are the most read, and little songs the
most loved. And when nature would
make anything especially rare and
beautiful, she makes it little-littlc
pearls, little diamonds, little dews.
Everybody calls that little that they
love best on earth. We once heard a
good sort Of man speak Of his little
wife, and we fancied that She must be
perfect little bijou Of wife. We
sai@; her, and she weighed aIo; We
were shrbtiscd. But then It was M
Joke; the ihah mcant it. He could pus
his wife in his hear! and have room
for other things besides; and what was
she but precious, and what was she
but little?
IfuHnm tn ParrO-much in litt'r
is the great beauty of all that We love
best, hope for most, and remcl'ibsr til"
Longest.

was not Sufficient to prove that Peep
did not sign the will. 1t should also
have been shown that he ought rot to
have done so. So far, then, find
nothing to prevent Mr.. Smiths taking
the property. But, greatly to my re-
gret (for have great respect for the
family of which his illustrious name
shows him to be member), the last
objection is a fatal one: There were
no witnesses. The statute provides
that there should be. John Smith can't
have them water-lots, and a decree
must be entered to that effect.
The costs must;be paid by the man
who owns the property devised, for I
do not find that any other Of the par
ties have any.
I do not think there has been any
fraud in this matter. The forgery Of
the testator's signature is indeed
wrapped in mystery" but I cannot
suspect that any Of my fellow-citizens
to whose suhrages I am indebted for
"all possess and almost all l know"
would be guilty OF doing any wrong
in the premises.

The following description Of a new
apparatus for testing oils is taken from
the AmericdA Chemist: This ma
chine consists ofacyl!hdrical box, hav-
ing a wick supported in its centre,
across the top Of which is a curven
metal rod, terminating in the bottom
ofthe cylinder at both ends The OIL
to be tested is poured into afxed light
the wick is lighted, the cover is put on
leaving an air space above the liquid
and a thermometer introduced through
an opening. AS the temperature OF
the oil rises by conduction of the heat
along the rod, the thermometer column
ascends. When the flashing point
which in France is $50 c. G3Io F)
is reached, the puff produced BY the
explosion extinguishes the fame, and
the reading of the thermometer gives
the point sought. ...
