A DISPATCH from Harrisburg last
Friday makes the following state
ment: Echley b. Coke, who was elect
ed Senator from Luzerne county last
November, and refused to take the
oath Of Office at the opening of the
Legislature for fear that he would be
indicted for perjury in swearing that
he had not used money improperly at
elections, was reelected to FIJI the
vacancy thus created on Tuesday last.
1t is understood that Senator Sea
mans will offer a resolution to refer
his credentials to the Judiciary Com
mittee when they are presented to
the Senate. And it is difficult to see
how the Judiciary Committee. in view
of the constitutional provision, can
help reporting him disqualified In
his statement to the Senate Mr.. Coke
said he had made expenditures during
his campaign for the Senate that,
while they were not for corrupt pur-
poses, were contrary to the act of
Assembly; and further that he be-
came aware in the midst of his can
vass that he was violating the law in
regard to the use of money at e,ec-
tons, but continued the practice un-
til election day, so as not to leopard
ize the Democratic ticket, although
for himself he determined not to
qualify as Senator. His refusal to
qualify left vacancy and he was
elected to fill that vacancy on Tues
day last. Under former decisions
and in this State prior to the birth of
the present Constitution such an
election would cure his disability.
But in our Constitution, the ninth
section of article VIII, interferes.
1t provides that "any person who
shall, while a candidate for Office, be
guilty of bribery. fraud or willful
violation of any election law, shall be
forever disqualified from holding any
Office. By Mr.. Coxe's own state
ment he continued to violate an cleo
ton law after he became aware he
was violating it, and this seems to
constitute wIllful violation.

A New Counterfeit Legal Tender.

Chief Brooks of the secret service
bureau, has received information that
a new counterfeit has made its ap-
pearance i'll Kentucky. 1t is an imi-
tation of the five dollar United States
note, series of 1875, letter d, small
figures IA under the said letter, John
Allison, register, A. H. Wyman, trea-
surer. 1t is printed on localized fibre
paper, which is only little inferior
to the genuine, although somewhat
thicker. The note is nearly one-half
an inch shorter than the genuine, but
as far as examined is fac simile, ex-
cept that in the genuine near the
treasurer signature, and in circular
form, is printed in red characters
''series 1875 :; also near the geomet-
ric lathe denominational counter con-
tanning the large figure s. In the
upper right-hand corner of the face
of the note, in red, are the figures
''1S75." Neither of these imprints
appears on the center of the note,
although subsequent issues, 1t Is
thought. may show the center fea-
lures to have supplied these defects.
The note is believed to be an imper-
feet specimen of what can be accom-
plished by photo-lithography. 1t is
badly blurred in printing, and very
much off color when compared with
the genuine, yet it is said to be cal
culated to deceive persons who are
not money experts.-Er.

The Cunning Of a Cat.
From the Carson Appeal.


A gentleman who took a trip into
the country several days ago, when on
the plains a mile from any house, no
ticed cat, hugh one, almost as large
as fair sized dog. 1t was lying upon
the ground, Its feet uppermost, in such
a way that he had no doubt that it bad
fallen a victim to some vicious dog.
Around it, feeding unsuspecungly, was
a flock of small birds. The apparently
lifeless cat was within range OF the vis-
ion Of the observer for some time, and
just as he Was thinking hcw much
easier IL would be for the animal to
leigh death ard catch bird by deceiv-
ing it than by slipping up to it, he was
asronished to see the cat suddenly roll
over and grab one of the feathered tribe
that was very near. The other birds
flew away one hundred yards or SO aud
alighted. The cat only made one or two
mouthfuls of the game, and then crept
around to the windward OF the birds,
laid itself out again and once more sue
cessfelly played the dead dodge. The
gentleman drove away without seeing
bow many birds it took to satisfy the
feline.

A DISPATCH from Washington on
the 9th inst, says: The second claim
ant to the Presidency this week ar
rived here to-day and proceeded to
the White House to notify Mr.. Hayes
to vacaee. He was Clarendon Tate,
of Bedford county, Pa, a graduate of
Harvard in 1873. Tate is about 39
years old. and has evidently become
deranged from hard study. The man
has remarkable knowledge of the
classics. He said this evening that
HAYES was his father, but the former
did not know it because he was in
some other mans skin. He claims
Mrs. Langtry as his mother and Gen.
Grant as his brother. The poor fel-
low told the President that he had
been under the influence of the devil
for 1896 days, and had just been re-
leased yesterday, when he started for
Washington to take a chain off Hayes
neck which the devil had put there.
Tate WAS kindly shown the door and
invited to call some other time. The
i-st c,,aimant arrived on Monday
from Asbtapu,,,., Ohio. There will be
a dozen of these men here Dcccre
March 1, as is always the case just
preceding an inauguration.

ONCE it was thought that only the
''busy bee" possesses the power to
distil honey. Now, however, man S
ingenuity and chemical knowledge
has made him the equal in the manu-
facture, or distillation, of delicious
honey, as may be learned from a New
York paper: There is a firm in New
York city engaged in making honey
and honey-com5. The honey-comb is
made by machinery of pararne wax,
and is an exact imitation of the reg
ular thing, except that the bees fash
ion their cells of walls only 1-125th
of en- inch wide, while human arti-
fcers have not yet become that deft-
The cells are filed with glucose,
which is the sweet syrup CT common
corn, and looks and tastes like honey.
The cells, once filed, are closed by
smearing a hot iron plate over the
wax tops, and the product is sold as
the best clover honey" 1t is in
great demand, and outsells the reg
ular honey"

has it that courts in that section of
