The excitement and alarm at the east
over the predicted great storm of "Pro.
lessor" Virgins, did not extend to the
west. There was a good deal of curicsi-
" IN this section as to whether the storm
would make its appearance at the time
predicted, and that is all. But at the
east, several persons of week minds and
nerves, were made crazy bv fear. The
fishermen along the coast did not mt IA

from New York with five passengers
ana the other with none. The outward
bound shipping waited in the lower bav

At the next meeting of the senate o +
the United States, important changes
will be made in the committees. OWING
to the large number of senators. The
senate committees are made up, as far
rs practicable under system. A new
member assigned to a committee goes
at the foot of the majority if he belongs
to that side, and to the foot of the mi.
nority if he represents that side. His
name is the last in the list of his side.
and he advances by regular promotion.
When chairman of committee leaves
IT from any cause, the next senator on
the majority list advances to the chair
manship, if h" desires it. If that sena.
tor has the Craftsmanship of another
committee which he prefers, he can re-
tain che latter, and the next one to him
on the majority list assumes the vacant
craftsmanship. In this way each change
advances every senator one step, The
method is closely followed, and hence
by taking a committee list, it is enough
to indicate many of the changes that will
occur in coming reorganization of the
committees.

California at the present time is most
anxious for rain. Without it the crop:
will be very short. The Bulletin saws:
The acreage in most of these counties
sown to wheat is larger than before.
There is less actual suffering from
drought than had been supposed. II
spring rains should be abundant, it is
probable that the yield of wheat at the
next harvest would not be much short
OF 5o,0oO,OoO bushels. But if dry wealth
er were to continue from this on the
shrinkage of this aggregate would prob
ably be 81 per cent. Twenty-Five mil
lion bushels of wheat lost by dry wealth.
er would be only one item. The bay,
barley and oat crops would he CORE
spondingly short.

Large and Small Heads.

Lord Bacon says lin one of his apo
thegms, 'that wise nature did never put
her precious jewels into garrett four
stories high, and therefore that exceed
ing tall men had ever very empty heads.'
This saying has often been used by way
of joke at the expense of tall people,
especially those of wit, genius and repu-
tation.
The same idea is thus quantity put by
witty old Fuller: "Often the cockloft is
empty in those whom nature hath
built many stories high"
Bacon's notion may be true, though
we doubt if facts support it. But there
is another certain saying which facts con-
tradict
Itass"rts that men ofgreat intellectual
powers Nc large and massive heads.
Gol'!s:,.. =. brings out this vulgar opinion
in the i;,nl,liar lines about the village
schoolmaster:
amazed the gaping rustics ranged around;
And still they gazed, and still the wonder
Tha: one small ;head could carry ali he
knew"
A writer in the Journal of Science saws
that the idea that great intellect re-
quires large head is not supported by
facts:
An examination of busts, pictures,
medallions, ETC., of the worlds famous
celebrities almost tends the other way,
In the earlier paintings, it is true, men
are distinguished by their large heads,
but this is attributable to the painters,
who agreed with the general opinion
and wished to flatter their sitters.
A receding forehead is mostly con-
demmcd. Nevertheless this feature is
found in Alexander the Great and, to a
lesser degree, in julius Caesar. The
head Of Frederick the Great, as will be
seen from one Of the portraits in Car
lyle's work, receded.
Other great men have had positively
small heads Lord Byron's was ''remark-
able small"
Men of genius of ancient times have
only what may be called an ordinary or
every 'ay forehead, and Heroditus, AL.
cibiades, Pluto, Aristotle and Epicurus,
among others, are mentioned as in.
stances.
Some are even low-browed, as Bur-
ton, the author of "The Anatomy of Mel
ancholy," anu Albert Durer.
The average forehead of the Greek
sculptures in the frieze from the Parthe-
non is. we are told, clover, if anything.
than what is seen in many modern fore
heads"

European travel will be more general
this summer than ever before. State
rooms in all the first-class steamships
have already been taken up to the
month of July. The question, What
will II trip abroad cost? is being discussed
with great eagerness. 1t depends, of
course, upon where and how one goes.
There is not much difference in expense
between travelling in America and in
Europe. From 81 to So per day for each
person will pc fair amount for all ne
cessary expenses. Indeed, some people
manage to "do" Europe much cheaper,
but the large majority of people throw
their money away in high-priced hotels
and tirst-class railway cars, when second
class are almost as good, and in going
over the same ground twice.

Norway is having fierce political
struggle with the king and his ministers.
The entire cabinet has been impeached
and the result of the trial is expected to
advance Norway ahead several degrees
in political government. The two legisla-
tive bodies are overwhelmingly liberal,
and the upper branch, composed ofthir-
ty liberals and ten judges of the supreme
court, who are conservatives, will try
tho impoaoh'nont. The trouble arises
from an attempt of the legislature to
amend the constitution, which was ve-
toed by the king who claims an absolute
veto in the premises.

The Minnesota Statesman inter.
.' viewed.
Morning News Washington sp ecial: SEN
ator Mcmillan thinks the year will be COM
paratively quiet and unministering 30 far as
politics is concerned.
An election for the state officers will be
held in Minnesota this year, but there are
no district issues pending to make the time
exciting. The election will be confined to
= mere choice of men. It is early yet to say
what questions will be brought forward for
party has taken the responsib: lily Of settling
the tariff question. and for that it is entitled
to great credit. The democrats in one sense
are gamers by this-they ore spared the re-
sponsibility Of passing upon the question,
and are saved from having great divisions in
their ranks made apparent by forced dis
cussien Of the subject.
Mr.. McMillin thought that one of the
great questions to be consider ed by the next
congress won d be the establishment of a
department of commerce. He says:
thoroughly unwieldly. It contains too
many subdivisions for the consideration
OF any one man, and that most of the other
departments have become 80 well classified,
so far as as their work is concerned, that
they are easily controlled through perfect
systems. These systems are also simplified
by the long lines of precedents for the regu-
lation of their actions. The interior de-
partment was made up of what there was
left of other departments tits constantly
growing. and to-day it comprehends more
great interests, and more troublesome ques-
tons than any other department of the gov
erment.
Mr.. Mcmillan thinks that if part of the
department could be put into the depart
ment of commerce, better public service
would be secured without any extra expense.
The question Of regulating inter safe com
merce, if taken by congress, could be prop
erly entrusted to the department of COM
merce. Mr.. Mcmillan thinks there IRE
only two candidates for the speakership
Carlisle, and Randall. The canvass will be
made upon the q 1estion Of tariff revision.
Randall will be for letting the subject rest,
while Carlisle represents the agitators
Which every side wins, the re.ults can be
nothing, but agitation, for the senate is re-
publican, and the republican policy will be
against any reopening Of this vexed ques.
