New York state Is in the old diIemma

New York State is in the old dilemma
of having money in its treasury and no.
body who can draw it out. The State
treasurer has gone crazy, has had to be
sent to an insane asylum, and under the
law there is no one who can legally per-
form his duty. There are between one
hundred and two hundred checks await
ing his signature, and all payments are
suspended,

The total loss of NJ. ID. ID. Wells d Co.

on the building, $4,000. The building
was insured in what companies cannot
now be stated, as the policies are all in

A SNAKE BATTER

The Richmond Register gives an account Of Q

hermit extraordinary. DisdNning to live In tho

able to drive MIN from his solitary abode. Hia
mode OF living is not very extravagant, as be pur-
chases ten cents worth Of meal ar time, whicA
he keeps in Q black satchel and uses for Q pillow.
with the bare ground for MS couch, and naught

Last week he ate ground hog which had been
killed Two weeks previous; putrotaction had
taken phase, but ne SAID It was splendid. He cooka
his food In Q novel manner, his only utensll for
that purpose being an old cofree pok into which
ne puts rats and other articles OF I0od sprinkinR
with little meal over which ne pours some water

COW snake roasted last week, sucked the bones
and pronounced 1t . sumptuous repass. He ro-
fuses to eat at o table, though repeatedly urged
to DO So or TO partake OF any ood unless prepared
BY himself Strange to say, this singular speclmeu
OF humanity can both read and write, and he pos.
sesses fair education. His coloquial powers are
good though he seldom and spartngy admits Of
intercourse. Studiously avoiding society, hia
whole nature seems to be warped by moroseneaA

country are there so many Jews as in Poland. and
there Is no part OF Poland where there are 50
many as In Gaiicia. They already form . nintA
part OF the population. ana this proportion b
yearly increasing. In most OF the towns they have
preponderating influence. Nearly all the money
Is In their hands, and the trade aud manufactures
OF the country are almost exclusively conducted
by them Since Austria has had q constitution,
too, they have become large landowners. bus
sooiany they are as much, II not more divided
from the Polish Inhabitants than ever. Far from
denIliying themselves with the national asplra-
tons or the Poles, they retain their old customs,
and even the Jewish dress, which has long been
abandoned by their corellgionists in other coun-
tries. Seeing that the Jews were gradually monop-
oi2ing the whole trade and manufactures Of the
country the Poles attempted to compete with them,
but without success, and they are now venting
their disappointment in bitter attacks upon them
In the press. The antagonism between the two
parties has become 80 violent that the schooner

estantism seems to be strangely lacking, is alone
sufficient to compel every man to sheathe hts
sword. The other Is centrifugal a. though all the
members were repellant to each other, az though
eacn was SUSPICIOUS and Jealous OF The other, and
union Of forces seems impracticable, even when
the greatest questions are discussed and she most
important movements are on foot.
Nor do these repcllant forces lose their energy
under the influence OF an increasing liberaity and
the premises on which Professionalism IL founded
is severe and Increasingly defined individualism.
The union OF the Catholic Church is typifed by the
strength OF the manila rope whose strands with
their component nbres, lie snugly side BY side,
each adding It's part TO the whole; while that OF
for 1t can never be more than that, to make the
form and semblance OF rope out Of sand. The
parts 40 moi no. ana a. ne me
themselves TO DE 30 many separate and individual
atoms.
TO be sure, history may possibly develop the fact
that union not strength, alter all, and SHOW that
there Is as much endurance and resistance In a
Thousand differing particles as In Q thousand simi-
lar flores closely woven together by common In.
terest and common faith. There Is, undoubtedly o
certain kind OF strength generated among friendly
truth0ving and truth-seeklng 1ndivlduals, IN
spite OF the vagaries and eccentricities necessa-
rily developed but until Professionalism learns to
care more Tor Its common latin than 1t does for
the garments In which that faith Is dressed 1t Is
useless TO put the sword into Its sheath, to pray
for the millennium or to talk about q union which
exists only III counterfeit

very discouraging. The Catholic Church is con-
