that we have never been able to see the
wisdom OF the Legislature in attempting
to prescribe qualifications for members OF

The law Of Virginia has always provided
(see Code OF 1878, page 1869 that when no
Judges OF election are appointed, or being
appointed refuse or neglect to act, it shall
be lawful for any three competent "free-
holders" to act as judges. Nobody has
ever questioned the constitutionality OF
that law. which has again and again been
kept in the election laws when other pro-
visions were changed. The Legislature

A Philadelphia paper says: The paying.
teller OF the KensingtOn National Bank re.
ceiyed check from Captain William S.
Cropper, OF the schooner David Sinnexson,
on last Saturday, calling for 1853. The
check was drawn by Calvin Conard, and
after glance at the signature the teller
passed out aroll OF bills aggregating 81, 1853.
After banking hours discrepancy OF
800 was found In the tellers accounts,
and an investigation showed that he bad
mistaken the figure "a" on the check for
two figure dis" The Captain, however,
denied that he had received more than
s46S, and he was arrested and locked up.
He was subsequently discharged upon re-
funding the 300.

Army officials who recently read a
portion of the diaries of the Greedy
party say that they reveal more Sc
rious condition of affairs than the sur
yivors will admit. ltseems that from
che beginning of the expedition there
were disputes between members OF
the party. These led to division,
ufhich existed at the time of the res
cue. When found one of these par
ties was in charge of Sergeant Long
and the other was in charge of Ser
geant Brainard, and they were lying
separately as two tribes. Greedy
while an invalid, and during the last
two months of Arctic life, was in the
party headed by Brainard, who caree
for him daily. The diaries show thai
the stealing of rations was common
practice.

The San Francisco Call adds this
TO the history of the Pacific Coast:
california in the sixteenth centu-
ry was the general name applied to
I'll the region northwest OF Mexico.
1t was said to have originated in the
old spanish romance, in the time of
Cortez, in which appeared character
called California the Queen of the
Amazons. The Mexicans told the
Spanards that most of their gold and
precious stones came from country
FAR to the northwest. Cortez, there
fore, turned his attentions in that di-
rection, and sent ont several expedi-
tions to explore the CALIFORNIA;. All
adventures returned empty-handed
from the very region where, three
centuries after, the world was startled

Idaho semi-weekly world. [volume] (Idaho City, Idaho Territory) 1875-1908, 1884-09-19


A cyclone passed over the country
north Of Saltwater, Minnesota, and a
large amount of property was des-
troyed and number oil people IN
iured, some seriously. The storm ex-
tended twelve miles. The direction
of theGyclone seems to have been
from west to east, verglng TO the
southeast. As it crossed the st. Croix
river into Wisconsin, within three or
four miles of the Saltwater, the dam
:,ge to farm buildings and grain was
Very heavy. A party engaged IN
threshing for Charles Thelander, in
HE town Of Grant, retreated to a barn
FOR protection, but the structure was
= ,.omolished, and George Rutherford
was caught by falling timber and
fatally injured. Several others were
hurt badly. The total loss in Clear
Lake and vicinity will reach at least
ii quarter Of million. Bill Nye, OF
Laramie Boomerang notoriety, was
driving with his brother, three miles
east Of Clear Lake, when the tornado
struck them. Bill was lifted clear
out of the wagon by the force OF the
wind and dashed to the side of the
road. His right leg was badly
broken in two places below the knee,
and his brother was slightly injured.
WEATHER ILLUSIONS. 1t will prob
ably be long ere the popular belief in
the influence of the Moon upon the
weather is completely eradicated, and
Mr.. X. ii. Scott is not sanguine of
carly success in dispelling the nearly
as deeply-rooted faith in equinoctial
gales. From records extending over
fourteen years, this metorolog'st finds
however, that the equinoxes are not
remarkable as windy or stormy peri
DDS in the British Isles, although the
season of storms appears to occur at
quite regular intervals The summer
half of the year, for instance, is almost
entirely free from severe storms which
begin gradually to increase about the
close of August and reach the max
inum about the latter part OF Janua-
ry, after which they grow less FREE
quent and severe until the last OF
April. Two lulls or periods Of COM
parative freedom from storms are no.
ticed during the winter-half, one APP
pearing in November and the other
in February.

Why, child, we're going TO Brazil. How
came you here, anyway? Who brought

Didn't anybody brought me. / only

well, now, tell me all about it,"
said Capt. Brooks, as he took the child
on his knee.
"Why, don't you know? We's all 60
ing into the tountry papa and Nannetta
and me and mamma, and mamma fell
down stairs and touldn't walk, and the
dotter tum, and / waited and waited a
long while, and SO rs 'fraid the boat
would be gone, and / toot my tat in the
bastet, and tum to the boat, and now
ives going into the tountry."
The captain didn't know what to do;
he wanted to send the child to New
York, but it was too dark a night To
venture to send her to another vessel,
even if they should meet one He con-
Guided to wait until the next day. But,
alas! the next day was stormy, and the
sea was too rough for a beat to be sent
out, and the storm lasted several days.
Meanwhile the sailors aud Capt. Brooks,
too, had grown so fond of Jim, who was
so brave and had such pretty ways, that
they we're no longer anxious to send
her back. SO the ship sailed on, day
after day and day after day, until
seventy days had passed since they left
New York, and then they landed at Rio
Janeiro. Capt. Brooks had some friends
in the city, and he went there with Jim,
intending to leave her with them while
they stayed in that port. But Jim
could not understand their Spanish
talk, and would not be separated from
her captain. But the ladies were very
kind to the little American, whose
queer ways amused them greatly. In
that ciSv the ladies do not go out
SHOPPING as they do in North Ameri-
can cities; instead of that, the mer-
cants carry their goods to the houses.
As the child's clothing was now very
shabby the captain wished her to have
some new garments, SO the ladies sent
for the merchants to bring the articles
to the house, and Jim was fitted up
with new suits enough to last her q
long time.
They went to ride almost every day
and Jim saw many strange sights. She
