Girls Fishing for Husbands.

The husband fishery at the summer
resorts last season was reported flat
failure; and the reason why the fish
ing failed, the Philadelphia Times
says, is that the style was too gor-
geous. While it compelled admira.
ton, it daZZled those who admired it
Its glitter was beautiful, but Il glance
at it was enough to drive the poor
fellows away with feelings of thank
fulneSs for their escape. While
palmer and less expensive girls meet
their mates, the elegantly-overdressed
lady remains solitary.
If the girl who Is fishing for Il hus-
band makes any mistake it is that of
thinking that the young man who is
looking for Il wife wants costly piece
of goods for show. Some young men
want this, but there are few who can
afford it, and even those who can are
in many instances afraid to yoke
themselves to it. They know that a
too showy young woman, even II she
has wealthy parents, is apt to be full
of troublesome whims and OF notions
very difficult to satisfy.
Even if they be so sordid that they
would like to marry for money, these
young men know enough to reflect
that riches sometimes take wings and
go out of sight. They stop and con-
slider that if there be wealth and
whims. when the wealth flies away
and leaves nothing but the whims.
the residue is an exceedingly undesir-
able piece of finery.
Every summer there is a complaint
Of the lack of young men at the
watering places. Last year the CON-
plaint was louder than ever. One of
the reasons is that the extravagant
display made by some of the girls
frightens them away. They cannot
afford such expensive luxuries as
these girls appear to be. They go
fishing or boating or hunting by them
selves, or take long pedestrian tours
out of reach of the girls. The girls
meanwhile sit on fashionable hotel
porticos, with their papas and MANI
mas, and lament and wonder.

PNEUMONIA was not the cause of

rhe girl who lets nature take its
course; who avoids putting herself
on exhibition as if for sale; who
make no more display than is consist
ent with gracefulness, beauty and
good common sense, is reasonably
sure of one of two things Either she
viii make delightful wife for some
sensible and worthy man. or else she
will turn out happy and lovely old
maid. Better be nice spinster than
an unlovely wife, married for money
or show.

PENDING BUSINESS.


House bill No. 3S (Mr. Browning's)
providing for controversy of testimC-
ny in applications for change of vinue
in civil cases, was resumed as the
business pending from adjournment
Mr. Browning spoke in reply to
previous arguments, as to the effects
of the bill in civil as compared to
those in criminal cases. This was
met by the fact that the court should
hear evidence so as to know intelli-
gently what to do. Such application,
he argued. could not be affected by as
powerful influences as criminal mat
ters involving life of parties were. If
prejudiceS exist the bill is just, be-
cause it gives the court the right to
investigate the facts. The judge can
tell whether the witnesses are biased,
and could draw the line so as to de-
termine whether a fair and impartial
trial could be had in the county. He
hoped the bill would pass.
Mr.. Kendall said that with all due
Difference to the friends of the bill he
thought it was deleterious. This un-
like European country was repre-
sentative government, where the OBJ
ject is not to protect the interests of
the majority against the minority
The bill proposed to change the law
of 1874, which is the law of every
state. The change would affect the
theory of our government. 1t would
leave the weak to the mercy of the
majority.
Mr.. Barrett thought the bill had
been discussed fully, and that mem
bers had made up their minds. So he
moved the previous question.
The bill was engrossed- 56,
nays 30. 1t amends article 1872, chap
ter 8, title 29 of the code relative to
changes of venue as already stated.
NEW BUSINESS.
Bills, resolutions and petitions, ex-
cept as otherwise stated, were read
and referred as follows:
From speakers desk, and by Messrs.
Moore, of Mcclellan, and White, of
Burleson, petitions of citizens against
sale of liquors. That from speakers
desk asks that the sale be prohibited
within three miles Of Osborn school
house.
On motion of Mr.. Frymier, and
under a suspension of the rules,
Messrs. Frymier, Caven and Hender-
son were appointed on committee of
conference on the branch asylum bills.
By Mr.. Newton: Petition for adop-
ton of certain standard school books
in the free public schools of the state.
Mr.. Brown: Bill to better define
the duties of the comptroller's and
attorney generals offices in enforcing
the collection of amounts due the

By Mr.. Wurzbach: Memorial and

contributed material, properly in
scribed, to the erection of the Wash
ington monuent in Washington city
