On one occasion in the Senate David
Davis put motion to adjourn to the Sem
ate, which was voted upon without divl-
sion, that is without calling the roll or
without the Senators rising to be counted.
Said he:
"Those in favor of the motion of the
Senator from - to adjourn will say
aye" and quite number answered
AYE"
"Those opposed to the notion" said Mr..
Davis, will answer no." and about the
same number answered "no" with a little
more vigor.
"The noes seem to be The lOudcst, said
Mr.. Davis, but the Chair is in doubt
whether they are the strongest or not. The
Chair will put the question again"
This time those in favor of adjourn
ment had, apparently, large majority,
whereupon Mr.. Davis said:
"The noes were the loudest, but not the
strongest. The Senate stands adjourned
until tomorrow at IL o'clock, aud the
Senators dispersed amid bosterous laugh

How to Feed Coarse Fodder.

There arc ways, we think, in which
the coarse fodder of the farm MAJ he
economically anl judiciouSly dispose j
of. The chemical analysis OF straw
corn fodder, meadow hay and such
articles, show that to q certain extent
they are incomplete foods, or in other
words do not contain q sufficient
amount or in the right proportion, all
the elements of food required for the
proper nourishment of animals. The
straw and corn fodder have had the
grain removed, and are left in all in
complete condition for food, and
when fed should have the deficiency
supplied. This can be done to the
best advantage by adding cotton seed
meal to the straw and stalks, in this
way supplying the deficiency i'll nj
trogenous and fatty elements. The
cotton seed meal is very rich in nitro
genous aud fatty elements, and offers
the most economical means of making
the straw, corn stalk and meadow hay
equal in feeding value to the best of
hay. If only half pint to pint of
the meal is fed daily to young stock,
decided improvement will be no
ticeable. AT first it would probably
have to be mixed with bran or corn
meal to induce the animals to eat it,
but they will soon relish it.

How an English Actor Receives his
Friends.

Henry Irving has a private supper
room Of his own behind the scenes OF
the Lyceum theatre. In this apart
ment-which is, in fact, suite Of
rooms, for the crimson curtains sepa-
rate the supper room from pantry
leading into kitchen-the celebrated
London actor receives his friends al
most every night of the week. 1t is
seldom that he sups alone, and on Sat-
urday nights he presides over quite a
numerous company. This private sat-
le a manager is approached by crossing
the stage and passing through room
hungwith armor and weapons. Irving's
supper room is that where the members
Of the Beefsteak club used to meet be-
fore they removed to their present
quarters, next the Folly theatre. The
Beefsteak club, which has for its rul-
ing spirit the duke of Beaufort, does
not seek publicity, and surely no rem
devious could have been better suited
to its confidential character than the
rooms in which Mr.. Irving now re-
ceives his friends. The motto of the
Beefsteak is still inscribed in antique
gilt letters on the crimson wall of the
recess where pianoforte stands. 1t
reads:
Let no one take from out this threshold
hence
Words uttered here IN friendly confidencei
This motto is like the oath Of the
lover in "TricOcheetC acolet," and pre-
vents my taking advantage of the sit
uation, but as / may not tell you
what Irving and his friends said, I
may at least describe the scene. The
apartment, although not very large,
has lofty ceiling, and is paneled i'll
oak. There is q portrait Of Charles l.,
which may have been Irving's model
for his makeup in Willis play, and
Jack Bannister is painted, too, in his
habit as he lived, and knights armor
stands mounted in one corner. The
supper table is spread in the centre of
the room. Some of the guests have
been in front, and there is no limit to
their expressions of admiration over
their hosts acting as they sit chatting
prior to his arrival from his dressing
room. They are all Irvingites to
man. Besides Mr.. Stoker, young
who is the enthusiastic bus
mess manager of the Lyceum, and to
whose energy and tact considerable of
its success is due, there are such men
as Lord Henry Somerset, son of the
duke of Beaufort; Mr.. Farquar, broth
of Sir James Farquar, and very pop
ular club man: Mr.. Armstrong, an
critic and patron of the dra-
ma, from Manchester, and a number of
others. including witty Irish III. p,

sit upon a chair during the repast and
make known his wants in the most

of a breed undetermined, but makes

ly-clipped light hair and expressive
brown eyes. Mr.. Irving comes into

they were entitled to adjudication.
Some time ago the attorney general
transmitted to the secretary of the interior
a letter from the district attorney of Wy
oming confirming the reports that large
areas of public lands have been put under
wire fence in that territory. The district
attorney believed the parties could not be
molested under the existing law. A
man named Swami had leased alternate
sections and then fenced in an enormous
area of school lands. Teller has written a
vigorous letter to the attorney general an
swering the communication in which he
says it is begging the question to say that

He has also laid bill before congress to

while recommends that energetic measures
be taken by the department of justice, and
that the district attorney be directed to

Individuality of the Horse.

One thing curious and interesting
about the horse is its Individuality
This is characteristic common to all
animals, undoubtedly to a greater or
less degree, but surprisingly SO, we
think, in the case of the horse. How
this charac teristic varies in horses is
well known by any one who has ever
intelligently drawn rein over good
roadster. The individuality of horses
varies as much as that of men. Every
one has a different mental as well as
physical makeup. Some horses seem
to possess brains, to have some sense,
are quick to understand and obey the
least sign. motion or word of their
master; others are not inaptly termed
lunk-heads," always awkward, lum-
bering about, difficult to teach, and
never snake anything" in a horseo-
logical sense. It may be true that
these traits in horse are sometimes
due to the habits Of his driver or
owner, and that the horse itself may
not be so much to blame for his ig-
norance, but however much he may
be excused on this score, there is sur
prising difference in these mental
qualities of horses. Some men drive
and use horses for years and yet never
realize that they know anything, or
that there is any more difference be-
tween them than there is between so
many barrels or saW-logs. Other men
who handle horses a great deal, who
buy and sell frequently, and who
study much their different character
istics, will tell you how wonderful
horses are, how much more they
know than some men, how much each
one has to be driven and handled diff

Louisa M. Alcott wrote last Friday to
the Wonlan's Journal, of Boston, as fol-
lows, concerning the condition of her
father, Bronson Alcott: "His mind is
brighter than some weeks ago, but still
weak and incapable of much exertion,
either in seeing people, trying to talk, or
reading. His speech is at times very in
distinct, and it is difficult for him to find
the proper word to express his thoughts.
His right side is still entirely helpless. He
takes no solid food, and seldom leaves his
bed for reclining chair. Society excites
him and disturbs his sleep, which other
wise is usually quiet. His great vigor will
doubtless sustain him for longer time
than most men of his age, but at eighty
three, and after three attacks, it lis not
probable that he will recover"
