Hon. Warner Miller.

The Junior Senator From New York.
 Senator Warner Miller, known more fs- miliarly as 'Wood Pulp Miller" of Herkimer, New York, was born in OsWego csunty, that State, August 12th, 1888, and is there fore in his forty sixth year. He graduated at Union college in 1860, and then hecame teacher in the Fort Edward Collegiate Insti- tute, but when the war broke out, in 1861, ne enlisted as a private in the Fifth New York cavalry. He served with conspicuous bravery in the Shenandoah Valley, being pro noted to sergeant-major and lieutenant At ,he battle of Winchester he was taken pris oner, but was finally exchanged" at the in farming and became the owner of exten- sive paper mills, in which enterprise he is still engaged. He was 8 delegate to the National sRepublic convention in Phiiadel phia in 1872 aud sin 1874 was elected to the New York Legislature, serving two terms.
 MT. Miller then entered national politics and was elected as representative to the Forty sixth Congress and was returned to the Forty seventh. In 1881, when Conklipg and Piatt resigued their seats in the Senate, Mir. Miller WAS chosen by the New York Assembl, to succeed Thomas c Platt, and took his seat October 11thEin the same year His term of off @ does not expire until the 3d of March, 1887.
 Senator Miller by his recent manipulation of the Republican caucus of the New York Legislature, securing the election by ths 10 yer house of Mr. Shea1d as its speaker, has won for himselfj the sudden reputation of being the leader ot the New York Republicans. and the well known fact that the Senator is antagonistic to the present administration of Arthur gives especial eiguificaDcs to his political control Hug bower in his State indicating that he ~iil become prominent factor in dictstlng against Arthur's renomination st Chicago next June
 Mir Miller is 8 man of splendid physical and men al strength. and possesses that per soual magnetism which wins the lasting friendship of those with whom he comes in intimate contact

What's in a Leap Year.

ssThis is leap year," remarked the statisti- cal sditor, as he put the finishing figures to weird and thrilling statement of the compar- ative production of shingle nails in '82 and 'S3
 ssSo it is,' seconded the literary editor, as with fresh dip of the mucilage brush he dashed of @ sparkling paragraph-whioh he had found in and out-of-the-way exchange,
 s.And about this time look out for boom in matrimonial bonds," put in the financial man.
 stYes,' said the sentimental editor, hay ing absorbed auarter-section of She lunch fend's pre-Adamite mince pie, this is My Lord Cupids year of grace, when it is not violating the charter that maiden shall hint to lingering lover that she will an he will, , when the lady fair may become the suppliant and offer her heart and hand to the one that she loves dearly '"--
 "And the men may take to the woods, 5 broke in the statistical editor. 'tThis leap year business is all hunnbug and ought to be buried with thirteen at table, William Tell and George Washingtons hatchet. l tell you, my boy, State street has more to do with the marriage crop than any year that you can divide with four, and these little stock -tickers knock your Cupid's bows and arrows into the middle of the next centennial All this fiip-ma guiider (the statistical editor has trayeIled) about love making the world go round looks very pretty on the BIjou stage and reads very we'll in the weeklies, but when times are dull and money tight, take notice tbat he doesn't do much to make anything on round except duns for flowers and car Tiaoes. You'll find the marriage record is pretty good index of the condition of the times, go far back as you like. We'll begin with '68. That year there were 3, TOO mar r;aoes in Boston. The number was annually Iaroer. and the next leap year shows 4, ,419 Tn ,78 YOU know we reached the height of fInsb times, and 4, ,469 atrocities were com mitted in the name of Hymen (the statistioian ia also a bachelor) That year, you know, hroucbt Black Friday and the panic, and that fall and winter things began to tumble Tn '75 there were 3, 400. a drop of a thousand in two years. In '76-leap year, mind you only 2.900, and the city growing all this whiie, and the women getting thicker every day. Four leap year theory didn't seem to work in those times. Then the election and the eight to seven business upset things again, and in 1877 there were but 2 800 mar fiages. Since then we've been picking up, averaging gain of about 200 year. Eighty two saw f. 634 weddings and reckon this year will beat that, but just as sure as these croakers' predietioEs of hard times come drop this year that no leaping can overcome. There's nothing like good sharp figures to harst thase sentimental bubbles every time. I

THE CONSTITUTION.

Judging from some of the bills which have been introduced in the present Congress there is pretty prevalent idea that tho Con I stitution of this great and glorious nation needs improvement Thus far no less than | twenty nine amendments to it have been in troduced, and how many more are coming nobody knows. All but eight of the twenty nine have been presented by members of the House.
 The catalogue of proposed amendments is an interesting one Several members want all citizens of the United States protected in their civil rights. Senator George would have no money paid out beyond the original amount appropriated for any purpose. Sem
 ator Blair proposes to prevent the manu- facture, importation and sale of spirits after 1900; and Deuster of Wisconsin. on the ground that all men are invested with certain
 inalienable rights. would prohibit the States
 and Territories from abridging the manufac-
 turs and sale of any article composed, in
 whole or in part, of any product of the soil.
 Senator Lapham desires to give women the
 right to vote, and White of Kentucky offers 8 similar resolution. Herbert of Alabama
 would limit the House to s51 members. Springer of Illinois wants to take away from Congress every thing but the enact ment of general laws. Beach of New York proposes to abolish the power to give eny person or persons exclusive privileges and franchises; also that the government shall not loan it's credit or money to any private undertaking. Thomas of Illinois desires to prohibit bigamy and polygamy, as does Gen. eral Rosecrans, who in his preamble con- demns polygamy for Sits contravention of reason, it's injustice to woman, it's degrading influence on the female sex, it's brutalizing effects on the male sex, and it's general re- pugnance to the spirit of modern freedom General Browne of Indiana proposes to elect the President and Vice President by direct popular vote. Townsend of Illinois wants Senators chosen by the people. Oscar Fur ner thinks the yeas and nays should be called on all appropriations of more than $1O,o0o Hutchins of New York would give the major ity power to pass bill over the Presidents veto, instead of two-thirds. Reagan of Texas wants to apportion direct taxes accord ing to property and not population of the States. Dawes of Massachusetts proposes to give Congress power to limit the time in which mill operatives may be daily employed, and Ray of New York wants uniform laws throughout the country regulating marriage and divorce.
 The old Constitution has stood the wear and tear to which it has been subjected we'll The time has come when it can be advsn- tageously added to in some respects, and the lawmakers have 8 good sized list to select from this year.

JANUARY SALE.

look small reductions on silks perhaps, eona-
 uared with what one often sees advertised
 but they have the advantage of being GENU

For Scotch Lin ems it is surely best to go to Scotch firms store We are nearly cleaned out of Blank cts but have made some almost absurd prices on some of the small remainders, and we have two cases coming in some tune this week that will be offered at prices that will aston ish the most experienced buyers. All our Mems Winter Underwear is reduced, all our Scarfs are cheaper. We have some marvel ous bargains to give in broken lots of Half Hose.
 We have no space for further enumera- ton, but would only say in conclusion that if you see any apparently low price quoted on anythisg elsewhere, come and see what we are selling it for before you buy.
 We don't mean to carry over any winte goods. It is always remarked of our store how fresh everything always looks. The se- cret of that is THAT WE KNOW HOW TO CLOSE OUT.

Professor Brown, of Carrolton, Georgia, writes to ths Atlanta Constitution suggest ing that the State university tyandother colleges that take an interest in the education of worthy young men shall provide facilities that will enable the sons of mained ex Con federate soldiers to reap the benefits of the best educational facilities. His plan applies mors particularly to the State university, which is of itself the beneficiary of the peo pie, but it is one that may be carried cut by every institution of learning that has stand ing or influence in the State. He suggests that mess hall be provided at the university where the sons of mained ex- Confederate soldiers may be able to procure board and lodging at cost, such as are able paying their pro rata share, and the board of such as are not able to pay being provided for by fund which may easily be raised among the public-spirited people of the State.

''Tamales' are sold in the streets of San Francisco at night. They are something good to eat A ''tamals'' merchant thus de- scribes the manufacture of his wares: To make tamaIes we take 8 chicken and boil it. When it is cold we cut it up as they do meat to make Hamburg steak. Then we take corn husks and dip them in cold water The next step is to grind the corn. Then we grind fine some Chilli peppers and stew with little four and lard to confer flavor, and after 8 little take it of and let 1t cool. The corn husks being allready, and the meal made into Q thick paste, we take piece of chicken, two olives, tablespoonful of pepper and some meal. and arrange it on husk. Then we take knife and, as one buffers bread, spread the meal paste on both husks and
 finally wrap one husk so prepared around the first and keep on until the tamales are as large as an ear of corn, when we tis the enss and middle with marrow piece of hnsk and 1t is done. As soon as enough tamales are made they are placed in an oven snd steamed until 1t is time to cake them down
 town. For corn husks pay $7 for six pounds; chickens cost ninety-fye cents each; olives, @6 for fonr- gallons; Chih peppers
