A street car full of passengers was
boarded by man with book and PEN
Gil in his hand, and he straightway began
taking vote of the passengers. Some
answered and some didn't, and some
didn't exactly understand what he was up
to. When he came along to little old
woman, with her lap full of parcels and
bundles, she called out:
'sThere is four of us in the family, and
we are all grown up; our Christian names
are John Henry, Betsy Ann, Melinda and
Aaron, and that's all the census you'll
get out of me-"

snapped "I'm bothered to death with
canvassers at the house, and I don't care
what new-fangled clothes wringer you've
got-I won't subscribed"
The passengers were all laughing, and
he didn't want to give it up in that way.

A KENTUCKY JUDGE.-ssSome years

LONG PARLIAMENTARY CONNECTION
The most remarkable instance of a long
Parliamentary connection is found in the
little borough of Caine, in Wiltshire, for
Sir Lionel Duckett, who was Lord
Mayor in 1879, purchased the hundred
of Caine, and his nephew, Stephen
Duckett, was returned for the borough
in 1854. Caine was represented by
Ducket without interruption from the
reign of Queen Elizabeth to that of
George III, when the manor was sold
in 1865 to Lord Shelburne, the ancestor
of the Marquis of Landsowne. The in
fuence of the Lord of the Manor is still
paramount in spite of the reform bills
and the ballot, but the sitting member
will scarcely secure his reelection on
such easy terms as his predecessor in the
last century, for all that the burgesses
of Caine expected from their representa-
tive in 1854 was buck-feast ever year,
and ten guineas for wine to drink his
health. The connection of the Masters
with Cirencester is of still longer
duration, for George Master of the Abbey
was returned for the borough in 1886,
and his ineal descendent, Charles Mas
ter Jr., the heir apparent of the Abbey,
is the sitting member in 1878. But
although the Masters have in almost
every generation represented Cirences-
ter. they have not held the seat without
as the buckets did at Caine.

CURRENT TOPICS.
WHAT Is CONG on IN THE WORLD.

THE Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe
Railroad Company have obtained from
the Mexican Government q franchise
for the extension of their line through
the State of Sonora, to the port of Quay
mas, on the Gulf of California. The
Mexican division of the road will be
known as the Sonora Railway. Quay
mas is about 600 miles in an
air line from Santa Fe. The route
has already been mostly surveyed,
and the work will be pushed as speedily
as possible. The rails for the Mexican
division are being purchased in Eng
land, and will be landed at Guaymas
duty free. Guaymas has . commodi-
Gus port and enjoys large coasting
trade, and it is said the bulk of the bust
ness from Australia, New Zealand, and
South and Central America can reason
ably be expected to center there when
the trans-continental railway is COM
pleted.

tories within whose border they are located.

fer control of the Indians to the War Depart

THE United States Supreme Court
has given a decision in the case of Tay-
or Stronder, plaintiff in error, versus
the State of West Virginia. The ques-
ton involved was the constitutionality
of the act of the West Virginia Legisla-
ture excluding colored citizens from
jury service in the courts of that. State.
The Court holds that when a colored
citizen is tried for his life by q jury
from which the citizens of his own race
are by State statute expressly excluded
he is denied the equal protection of law
guaranteed by the third clause of the
Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitu-
ton, and that the State statute denying
him such right is repugnant to said
constitutional provision. Judgment OF
the Supreme Court of Appeals of West
Virginia is reversed. Justice Strong
delivered the opinion, Justices Field
and Clifford dissenting. "0 ea
