A French peasant saw in the river a
floating egg. He thought he could catch
it with his hand, but, in the at-
tempt fell into the water, and the
egg escaped him. The water was deep
and he could not swim. In terror, he
believed that God was Furnishing his
greediness. To propitiate his fate he
vowed that if no escaped he would never
eat another egg. Instantly branch Of a
tree presented itself to him, by means Of
which he gained the banks Of the stream.
Shaking himself, he said: II suppose, o,
Lord, that you of course understood me
to say raw eggs!"

IN the Twelfth ACCOMPLISHMENT Of Paris
women have been declared electors and
eligible to office in the management and
control Of the public schools. At the
frat election after the new law was an
nounced many women voted. and it is
said that their influence will have .
marked and immediate effect. Nine
Griesstrant, writing upon the subject
in the Debats. says: "This is a big
breach in the old citadel Of Tradition,
whose walls were far stronger than those
Of tho Bastile, which, after all, was
nothing but stone and mortar, while the
citadel that confined over half the human
race-and those constituting the weaker
portion, who most need legal protection
was triple wall, composed Of the
abuse Of power, prejudice and egotism.'
One thing is singular in the "citizen suf-
frage" movement in France, and that is
the number Of young women who are
working in it.

The Virginia Chronicle reminds the
Story County delegates Of the pledges
taken before their election in the follow.
ing: Every member Of the Storey Coun.
ty delegation to the Legislature was
elected on pledge that he would. as his
first duty, urge an examination Of the
books Of the railroad companies of the
State, in order that the Legislature might
have an intelligent basis upon which to
regulate fares and freights. The Legis.
lature has been in session since the Sd
OF the month, and yet no member of the
Storey County delegation has been en-.
ergetic enough to propose the work to
which he is pledged. There is no time
to be lost. The Legislature is in its
third week. The people will not quietly
bear do-nothing policy"

The Silver State has the following SEN
siblc suggestion under the caption "What
the Legislature should do:" Congress
appropriates millions of the public money
annually for the improvement OF nayig'
able rivers and harbors. As Nevada is
an inland State with no navigable rivers
within its limits, not even stream that
has o visible outlet to the sea, it does
not receive one cent of these appropria-
lions. 1t has millions of acres Of rich
lands within its boundaries, which, with
out water for irrigating purposes are
valueless 1t is generally believed that
sufficient water to make these waters pro.
ductive could be produced from artesian
wells. Few people who have means to
try the experiment Of sinking artesian
wells on the parched plains of Nevada
care to do it; consequently it has not
been done. Now, would it not be ad.
visable for the Legislature to memorabilia
Congress on the suhiscti Surely that
body, which is so liberal in making ap-
preparations for improving rivers in the
older States, cannot consistently refuse
to make liberal appropriation for boring
wells in favorable localities in Nevada.
If the experiment should prove success
full, hundreds Of thousands Of acres Of
land which the Government cannot now
dispose of for FIVE cents an acre, would
find ready purchasers at much higher
price; and if the experiment fails, the
money expended will not embarrass the
Government financially. Thousands of
dollars arc being expended by the Bureau
of Agriculture, in experimenting with
the tea culture, and the reclamation Of
the great arid plains Of Nevada are of
A. much Importance to the people as the
limited production Of tea The Legisla-
ture should give the matter a little Of its
time, and direct the attention Of Congress
to the Importance Of making an appro-
priation to sink at least dozen wells in
different parts Of Nevada. "

4 Cabinet Meeting on the State of the
Weather.


On the evening Of the 2oth of Decem-
Der, things began to look blue around
"The Cabin" at Rugby. The coun-
tenances of some of the "main promo
tiers" began to wear an aspect Of solem-
nifty; the less interested ones began to
slap their hands and jump around fright
smart" and generally indicate that in
their opinion there was "wow and
wumpus" going on at the Office of
sod Prob" As the shades of evening
drew on, they too began to lose their
indifferent manner, and looks Of serious
mindedness began rapidly to take its
place, for it was noised abroad that DR..
Kemp's maximum and minimum Their
mometer, hanging on the big oak at the
door of the "Tabard," had struck zero.
Now, in the mind of "the oldest inhab-
liant" Of Morgan County, zero means
something, something awful; SO that

Mr.. THos. HUGHES, in his address at
Rugby, stated that the purpose of the
Board was to have one place of worship
for all Christians, ofwhatever denomina-
ton, and expressed the hope that all
would heartily join in such union ser
vices The fine church building is not
yet completed, but services are held
Sunday forenoon and evening at Hotel
Tabard. The forenoon service is Epis-
copal in form, and the evening service
is usually conducted by member of
some other denomination. The attend
ance upon both meetings is very fair for
the number of settlers, and the audience
at both is very largely composed Of the
same individuals. The earnest attention
of those present is a pleasing evidence
that they have come there to worship
God, and not to answer to the roll call
of any particular sect. So far the faith
and hope of the founders seem to be
verified in the practice by the settlers.
The hearty union of all in the commu-
Mon service recently held, was striking
evidence of the recognition of the fact
that all the true worshippers of God are
one in Christ Jesus. How pleasant to see
people gathered here from such widely
sundered parts Of the universe, amid the
beautiful and varied works of nature,
uniting SO sincerely, SO harmoniously
in the worship of natures God! And
why should it not be so? No one has,
or can have, the exclusive control Of the
heart, ear, or hand of God; but all who
serve God in spirit and in truth are
accepted Of Him.
May this experiment, SO happily, SO
successfully inaugurated in this new
town, 90 on gaining strength with in
creasing numbers, until the names Chris
tan and Christ shall be the magic words
to unite heart to heart and hand to
hand, in the love and service of Him
who came to seek and save the lost,
and bids the weary and heavy laden to
come and learn of Him and find sure
rest to their souls. May the success of
this experiment prove to the world that
all Christians of whatever name or creed
may blend in perfect harmony their
praises for blessings received, their APP
plications for mercies desired, and jour-
ney on helpfully together to lands that
are fairer than the fairest on earth.

airs Of solemnity and serious-minded-
ness soon changed to expressions of awe
and terror. No jokes were perpetrated
around the cabin fires that night. All
available pieces of old carpet, over and
even under clothing, were heaped upon
the beds to ward off the terrible northern
intruder, but to no purpose. The cracks
and crannies in the pine cabin began to
open wider and wider, and at about three
O'Clock in the morning, the Boss called
out: care any of you froze7" Six voices
in response answered "Yes! all of us ;"
A short but impressive silence was
broken by "Whar do you s'pose we
are?" Response in chorus, "In Ten.
nessee." A longer silence was broken
by voice proceeding from the bunk in
the northeast corner of the cabin Tin
dicating set and determined purpose,

pamphlet" Wild and mixed responses

I'd like to know ?-never known to be

build a fire, and, say, Bob, put on your
pants and 60 out Pants! We got
'em OIL slept in 'em." "Well, slip
on your coat, and go out and strike
match, and see how she does stand" A
short interval, whiz, slap ING, open
and close of the cabin door, and Bob
announced with an air of one who had
something to disclose, "Seven degrees
below zero!" Nothing more was said.
Bob built the fire in silence; tour break
fast was eaten by lamp-light, and with
almost closed mouths, the cold wild
turkey left over from yesterday was al
most untasted; the venison steaks were
frozen too stiff to cut; the quails were
lying cold and unpicked in the corner.
BY solemn and implied assent, the entire
Cabinet resolved itself into committee
of the whole, and determinedly proceed
ed to the Doctors Office, where they
were met and at once dsarmed by the
handful of letters, papers and dispatches
just being received, announcing the
march and destruction of the terrible
cold wave from the northwest; and as
the indications from all the different
sections of the country were given, the
chairman became satisfied that no "foul''
had been committed upon Rugby, and
the Cabinet returned home in sunshine.
What we had left from breakfast was
joyfully warmed over for dinner, after
