The Indications are that the present congress
VIII make the apportionment under the new
census, aS 1t is stated that the census returns
will positively be ready In time. Under the
Constitution the number OF Representatives
cannot exceed one for every thirty thousand
the population, but our country has long since
grown past that ratio. In the new apportion-
ment the ratio OF representation should be IN
creased rather than to increase the number OF
members OF the House, and on this very Ques-
ton Will probably occur sharp contest.
Those states which will lose a member or so by
an increase OF the ratio will, no doubt, oppose
II, because OF very decided objection to seeing
their lumber of members reduced. But there is
no good argument In favor of Increasing the
number OF members, while there are several
reasons against It. In the first place the
present Han or Representatives cannot be en-
IaTged 70 accommodate any additional mem
beTs unless the plan that has been suggested,
OF removing the desks. be carried out In fact
with the desks In the House, the members as at
present are rather crowded for elbow room It
certainly cannot be maintained that it would
add to the dispatch OF business to increase
the membership. On the contrary, 1t would
retard business The House now con-
taiDs so many members that Il Is very difficult
and sometimes impossible las witness Tuesdays
exceptions, each member has his special sub
jects upon which he must deliver speeches at
every session, and this speaking occupies more
than half the time OF Congress. TO increase
the number of Representatives is to increase
the number OF speeches that must be delivered,
and this is TO prOlong the sessions. While the
few states whose representation will be shorn
little under an increased ratio will not like It,
that is altogether the best plan for the coun-
try.

The average net earnings OF a sleeping car,
which costs 1000, are about 81 900 per month,
and the ordinary working life OF one OF them Is
from ten TO twelve years. In other words It
pays for itself the first year. aud after that
makes about 100000 clear profit for It's owners,
barring the cost OF occasional slight repairs.
The stock Of the Wagner company, which
covers comparatively small territory, pays
So per cent profit per annum; the Pullman
company. which is much more extensive in its
ramlncations, IS even more pro1table-so
profitable, indeed, that the truth is not known

DRESSING POUL TR Y.
HOW TURKEYS ARE PICKED AIIyE-AN
FXpFDITIoUs PROCESS.

The indianapolis Ne'rs says: The
method of dressing, or more properly
undressing poultry, employed in the
| large commission houses would be
revelation to the ordinary chicken kill
er. The futile chase after the bird
early in the morning, the capture of
the same late in the evening; the con-
fusion, fuss, commotion and the yards
upon yards of advice are all done away
with. Everything there is done with
neatness and dispatch. This is where
it is done: A dirty, dingy room, fur
nished with carpenter'sbench, a block
of wood, several bloody barrels, some
tubs of water, wide mouthed iron
| kettle steaming over q short stove, and
score of stout cords suspended from
the rafters. And this is how it is done.
The executioner selects from the coop
half dozen of chickens, and with a
skill which only comes from long prac-
tice, he lays their heads, one after an
other, on the block Quickly and with
single stroke to the neck, he cuts off
heads and throws the bodies into a
barrel, where they are given an oppor-
tunity to die in privacy. They are just
allowed two minutes to finish this bus
mess, when the picker is not in a hur
ry, and at the end of that time they are
sprawled out on the floor, and one at a
time they are soused into the pot of
boiling water and picked, and such
picking! In less time than it takes to
write it, the body is as bare as bill
lard ball. The operator passes his
hands over the fowl as gracefully and
seemingly with as little effort as ma
gician does over an empty hat upon
which he will Immediately produe six
live rabbits and dozen white pigeons.
and the result is equally Incompetent
sible. From his hands the bird passes
into the tub of water and is ready for
the market. This is the wet pick. The
most popular method of picking for the
eastern market is the dry pick. The
wet pick, it is claimed, renders poultry
more susceptible to the weather than
the dry pick does. In dry picking in
this city, only the larger kinds of poul-
try are chosen 1t is the favorite way
of dressing turkeys and geese. To dry
and pick turkey, the bird is taken
alive from the coop and tied by his legs
with one of the hanging cords. His
throat is cut, and before the first drop
of blood has fallen, almost before the
turkey has chance to realize his stu
alton, his tail is gone and long before he
dies he is minus even his pin feathers.
Sometimes the feathers come unwil-
lingly, the skin must then come with
them. There is reason for this cruelty.
When the bird is dead the feathers be-
come set in their sockets, and to dress
it, it is necessary either to soak it in
hot water or tear all the skin off of the
body in taking off the feathers. The
first would injure the value of the fowl
not less than the second, and the only
wayleft is to pick alive. Geese are al
ways picked in this way. Ducks and
chickens are usually treated to the wet
pick in the West, although in the East
the dry pick is the most popular man.
ner of dressing them.

NOT 4 CRIME.

From Maine to Oregon and from the
lakes to the Gulf there will be joy over
the recent decision by a Delaware
court that kleptomania is not a crime.
To be called thief is very distasteful
to any one, particularly if the appella-
ton is expressed in court, but to be
termed kleptomaniac is very differ
ent thing. Individual manias are gen.
orally inherited, and to be considered
the victim of one implies that the per-
son concerned had ancestors, and pos
sibly distinguished ones. for the fame
and fortune of many a very old and
rich family had its origin in practices
that would come under the vulgar des-
ignation of theft were it not that his
tory has sanctioned the use of such
terms as conquest" "sequestration,"
"con6scation, &c, to express the acts
that resulted finally in the property
of some individuals and communities
passing into the hands of others who
were stronger The plantation negro
who is caught with bag full of chick
ems for which he cannot show bill OF
sale is as clearly a kleptomaniac, for
the tribe to which his ancestors be-
longed gained their livelihood princi-
pally by fighting weaker tribes and ap-
propriating their property, while the
high-toned Wall street man who un-
loads lot of Wild Cat Preferred upon
friend with money to invest can prob
ably find the rooG of his family tree in
some splendid old nobleman who help
ing his king to annex slice of a
weaker rulers territory, received a
share OF the plunder by way of reward.
Both operators. therefore, can claim
upon undoubted evidence to be mere
kleptomaniacs and consequently guile
less. Indeed, kleptomania is not only
not crime, but quality which in its
larger developments is held in high es-
TEEN. Were it not so Germany could
never have obtained Alsace and Lor-
raine, nor could England have annexed
the Transvaal Republic the Black
Hills would still echo Indian gutturals
instead of the joyous shouts of the in
ebriated miner and the dulcet melodies
that are waited from the doors and win-
dows of scores of free concert saloons.
A mania that allies a man to the great
rulers, diplomatists and statesmen OF
the world is not to be underrated to
realize that in it's minor forms it has
until lately been regarded as theft Is to
comprehend anew what wonderful
eye Of pVgress ve live In.

THE CONVENTION.

pittsburgh Commerclal GaZette.J
In reviewing the proceedings of the
Republican State Convention, a few
thoughts suggest themselves. So far
as there were antagonisms, they were
personal as between the friends of
Cameron and those who oppose Linn
rather than political as between the
partisans of Grant and Blaine. There
was no misunderstanding, no unfriend-
illness between Blaine and Cameron.
On the other hand, they were in the
most perfect accord as to what course
the convention should adopt. 1t was
well understood that Cameron's first
choice was Grant, and equally well
known that he would just as cordially
support Blaine if Grants name were
withdrawn. 1t has also been an open
secret among politicians for some time,
that Grants name will not be SUBJ
mitted to the Chicago convention at
all, unless his friends can count in adj
vance a preponderating influence in
his favor-such an influence as will
command for him the almost unani-
NOUS endorsement of the convention.
He is not candidate at all in the or
dinary sense. That is to say, his name
will not be presented by his friends
for the purpose of trying conclusions
against the field, or availing themselves
of whatever opportunities might be
presented for forming combinations in
his interest They must see their
way clear before they will authorize
the use of his name.
