CHICAGO, March 3).-A singular
fact was noted in the city last night at
a certain hour. All who had occasion
to use the telephone found 1t vibrating
to musical tones. Private and public
telephones were alike affected and oven

was a mystery till to-day when 1t
trans plred that the telegraph wire
from the stock yarls passing near
most of the telephone wires connected
with the harm onic system; that tunes
were being played over II, and that
the telephone wires took up the sounds
by induction. This suggests the rath'
or grave question as to the results
should the harmonic system be gener'

WAsHINGT IN, March 30.-In the
Ochiltree case, Judge Lawrence,
second controller of the treasury, de.
cIdes that In view of the explicit pro-
vision of the constitution, and the
re-. sons on which 1t rests, 1t must bs
held that the salary must bs paid to
o representative, because the language
Of the constitution Is imperative, "He
shall receive compensation for his SER
vices as fixed by the law" If his
compensation Is not paid to him and
IL Withheld, 1t cannot be said he has
received 1t. As to delegates from
territories they stand upon q different
footing. They are created by statute,
not by tho constitution, the statute
can therefore change their right to
compensation. In view of this 1t must
held that no set ff can be made In
the case of representatives In congress,
but may be as to delegates.

Good news comes to us from. all
our leveGs and gives us every reason
to hope that Louisiana will be in such
condition by the time the river be-
gins rising as to withstand the very
highest water.
From 'PosSnm Fork, on which the
eyes of all the people of Northern
Louisiana have been turned with ex-
pectation, comes the news that camps
have been located there, and that the
contractor expects to complete all the
needed work by February,
At the other great levce on which
the state is engaged, Morganza, which
will complete the levee system south
of Red river, large force of 400 men
are now at work. The state engineer,
who has taken thorough survey of
the situation there, is well pleased
with the outlook, and tolcgraphs that
he "is certain that this levoe will be
finished before high water"
In fine. Louisiana will be in better
condition to Withstand u mighty food
this winter than ever before. All tho
old lovees have been strengthened and
repaired; breaks that have been open
since the war have been closed, and,
for the first time since 1861, this state
will present a continuous levee system
to the swollen and mighty Mississippi.
This winter will show the world the
value and Importance, the absolute ne
Cessity of levees for the aIluvial dis
