HOW THEY PARTED.

A year ago this spring, Detrolter
and q Missourian became acquainted
with each other in Leadville. Hav-
inc decided that they could better
themselves outside the city, they |
journeyed away over the hllls ana
founded the present town OF Twin
Lakes. They built u shanty, stored
their things in it, and Sunday came
around. Before the MissOnrian was
awake the Detroiter had shaved, wash
ed and put on IL clean shirt. Indeed,
he also changed his socks and greas-
s ed his boots. When the other awoke
he looked at the Detroiter for a long
time without speaking. Then he got
mn and walked around him, and final
ly asked:
"Going to church anywhere to-
day."
"No."
"Any funeral around here any
where ~
"No.n

it you to-day
"Ne."
The Pike County man turned away
and prepared his breakfast without
another word When he had finished
it he went out and sat down on rock
and looked straight at the hills for an
hour. Then he went back to the
shanty and said
"Jim, are you going to do this reg
ular every Sunday"
"Why, like to clean up little at
the end of the week"

THE REPUBLICAN REApPoRroNMENr BILL PASSED
BY THE HoUsE-DEFEAT OF APARTIsAS MEASURE.
IBr TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.l
WAsHrNGroN, March 3.-The passage of an APP
portionment bill this afternoon by the House OF
Representatives, fixing the number of Representa-
tiyes at $40, was triumph of which the Republl-
cans are Justly proud and which should be subject
Of general public congratulation. There has been
vast amount of mon partisan" sentiment talked
and written on the subject of apportIonment ever
since last December. 1t was noticeable, however,
that it was all brought to the support OF "mathe-
matically correct" measures. designed to give the
Southern Democrats relative increase o. power IN
the Electoral College and House of representatives
Not one bill was presented by Mr. Cox or any other
Democrat that did not effect and was not designed
to produce this very result.
The great majority of the Republican members in
the House of Representatives were not befogged or
deluded by the chicanery or arthmetical tricks OF
Mr. Cox and his followers and allies. Those Repub-
hcans have been criticised because they obstructed
by lawful parliamentary means. the passage of an
unfair partisan measure offered by the Democrats as
their ultimatum but the event has fully vndicated
their course While the bill passed to-day is not all
that the Republicans would have been justified in
demanding it is the one agreed upon by them as the
least that would be satisfactory. o
The affirmative vote on the bill was 145 to 113.
and twenty-seven of the affirmative votes were cast
by Democrats and Greenbackers. TIE result was
violent and dsagreeabie surprise to Mr. Cox and The
other supporters of the Democratic bills, Under
this bill, which will probably become law; the
