mittee on Appropriations in the Legislative
and Executive Appropriation bill only pro-
vide s25,0U0 for the salary Of the President,
and accompany 1t with provision repeal-
ing the section Of the Revised Statutes

will be remembered the Senate 1t this ses-
sion failed to pass over the veto of Presi-
dent Grant the bill restoring the salary to
the old fgvre, although 1t passed both

RAILROAD TRAIN STOPPED BY WIND
Accounts of railroad trains being
stopped by the snow are not an unus-
ual occurrence, but we now hear OF
another manner in which the weather
interferes with trains, as witness this
from the Sioux City Journal OF the
2Oth:- -"The Sioux City and St. Paul
train did not get in yesterday until
between 2 and 3 o'clock in the after
noon. The trouble was not snow. 1t
was wind. Above St. James the train
was completely stalled. By double
tripping the train was got to St.
James, where it was abanded until
morning, when the storm sofar abated
as to permit resumption OF the jour-
ney. Trains going the other way just
scooted."

The AGE OF THE EARrH.-Sir w.
Thomas has concluded, from different
lines of argument, that the age OF the
earth as a body cool enough for habi-
tation, cannot be greater than 1OO,-
100000 years. Prof. TAFT, however,
in his work on the advance in Phys
ical Science" comes to a somewhat
different conclusion, and puts the limit
of the worlds age at 100000 years.
When doctors disagree who shall de-
eide? AS for other worlds than ours,
some of them are said to be so far
away that the light from them has not
even yet reached our planet. A writer
of the Quarterly Review says that "the
telescope has rendered visible stars SO
amazingly remote that light leaping
over 185, 1000 miles in single second
would take 100000 years to travel
from them to the earth" Astrono-
mers and geolo lists have way of
tossing millions of years about as it
they were mere grains on the sands
of time. 1t makes the few score al
lotted to man appear amazingly in
significant.

AN exchange says that society has
been formed in Siberia which compels
all males to marry when of age, and
makes the wife the head Of the family
and the husband marked subordi-
nate. There are good many fam'-

the Siberian plan.

THE Hindoos have a superstition
that if corba is killed some OF Its
relatives will avenge its death. For
this reason the serpents are allowed
by them to multiply without any mo-
lestation. 1t is stated in recent
publication that in the Presidency OF
Bengal alone ,416 persons died OF
snake bite in a year.

chimney and tied round his own thigh:
and he had to make haste, for the wa
ter now began to boil in the pot, and
he had still to grind the oatmeal.
So he began to grind away; but
while he was hard at it, down fell the
COW off the housetop after all, and as
she fell she dragged the man up the
chimney by the rope There he stuck
fast; and as for the COW, she hung
halfway down the wall, swinging be-
tween heaven and earth, for she could
neither get down nor up.
And now the goody had waited
seven lengths and seven breadths for
her husband to come and call them
home to dinner; but never call they
had. At last she thought she'd wait
ed long enough, and went home. But
when she got there and saw the cow
hanging in such an ugly place, she
ran up and cut the rope in two with
her scythe. But as she did this, down
came her husband out of the chimney,
and so when his old dame came inside
the kihchen there she found him stand
ing on his head in the porridge-pot.

AN OLD MORSE TALE.

So one evening, in haying time, he
came home scolding and swearing,
and showing his teeth and making a
dust.
"Dear love, don't be so angry;
there's a good man." said his goody,
tomorrow let us change work. I'll
90 out with the movers and NOW, and
you shall mind the house at home"
Yes! the husband thought that
would do very we'll He was quite
willing, he said.
So, early next morning his goody
took scythe over her neck and went
out into the bayfield, with the NOW
ers, and began to NOW; but the man
was to mind the house and do the
work at home.
First of all he wanted to churn the
butter; but when he had churned
awhile he got thirsty, and went down
to the cellar to tap a barrel OF ale.
So, lust when he had knocked in the
bung and was putting the tap. into
the cask he heard overhead the pig
come into the kitchen. Then off he
ran up the cellar steps, with the tap
in his hand, as fast as he could, to
look after the pig lest it should upset
the churn; but when he got up and
saw the pig had already knocked the
churn over, and stood there roofing
and grunting among the cream which
was running all over the floor, he got
so wild with rage that he quite forgot
the ale barrel, and ran at the pig as
hard as he could. He caught it too,
lust as it ran out of doors, and gave
it such a kick that piggy lay for dead
on the spot. Then all at once he re-
memhered he had the tap in his hand,
but when he got down to the cellar
every drop of ale had run out of the
cask.
Then he went into the dairy and
found enough cream left to fill the
churn again, and so he began to
churn, for butter they must have at
dinner. When he had churned abit
he remembered that their milking-cow
was still shut up in the byre, and
hadn't had bit to eat nor drop to
drink all the morning, though the sun
was high. Then all at once he thought
twas too far to take her down to the
meadow, so he'd just get her up on
the house top-for the house, you must
know, was thatched with sods, and a
fine crop of grass was growing there
Now, their house lay close up against
steep down, and he thought if he
laid a plank across the thatch at the
back he'd easily get the COW up.
But still he couldn't leave the churn
for there was his little babe crawling
about on the floor; "And if leave 1T,
he thought, "the child is safe to upset
lit" So he took the churn on his back
and went out with it; but then he
thought he'd better first water the
cow before he turned her out on the
thatch; so he took up a bucket t6
draw water out of the well; but as he
stooped down at the wells brink al
| the cream ran out Of the churn ove1
Ibis shoulders and so down into the
we'll.
Now It was near dinner-time, anc
he had't even got the butter yet; Sc
he thought he'd best boil the porrldge
and filled the pot with water and huns
it over the fire. When he had done
that he thought the cow might per
hans fall off the thatch and break he
LEG or her neck; SO he got up on tn
house to tie her up. One end Of tn

Looney "Called",

There seems to he no doubt that
Judge Looncy was put in the field by
a secret caucus Of the Radical central
committee. The "call" was an after
thought. And even if it was not We
know to our cost what the "indepcn-
dent" dodge means. 1t is only a
Radical dodge to gull unwary Demo
crat and Conservatives. The very
character of the nominee proves this
assertion. The gettcrs up OF the
movement did not nominate 4 con-
sentative for the office. They nomi-
mated one who Las been a leader of
the Radical party almost ever since
it had the power Questioning patron
age.
Judge Looncy is, therefore, the
Radical nominee, and it is not
worthy of the support of any member
of the Democratic. Conservative par
ty. He must be met bya regular
tic-ConservatHe nominee
The central committee meets on Mon.
dav. There is no time for a convcn
ton in the ten days just preceding

because the country people are I'm
