When the Electoral Votes win Be Cast.

The federal and Indiana State statutory pro
visions for the meeting of the presidential elect
ors 20 cast their votes for President conflict,
and a doubt having arisen upon the question of
which law governs the elections the matter was
referred to Attorney-general Hord for an opin-
ior. The Revised Statutes of 1884, in section
4,777 provide that the electors shall assemble
in the chamber of the House of Representatives
on the first Monday in December, or such other
day as may be fixed by Consress" and
the federal statute provides that 1.-THE electors
for each State shall meet and give their votes,
upon the first Wednesday in December, in the
year in which they are appointed, at such place
in each State as the Legislature of such State
shall direct" There is further provision by
the Constitution of the United States that the
Congress may determine the time for choosing
the electors and the day upon which they may
give their votes, which day shall be the same
throughout the United States" 1t is the opinion
of the Attorney general, in view of the law
quoted, that the electors should meet on the
day named in the federal statutes-the first
Wednesday in December.

liable Indictment against the eX--
travagancc OF the wealthy in Eng
land. In her first cont She de-
cIares that the fashionable world is
sinking into habits Of gluttony. A
succession Of dinners, occupies the
attention Of guests Of country houses
with brief intervals from morning
till night. The day is begun with
a service of tea bread and butter in
the bed room. An hour later break
fast follows with an overwhelming
array of hot and cold dishes and
accessories. At one or two o'clock
Justice is done to a luncheon still
more substantial in its character,
after which comes coffee, cham
pagne, or curacao. At five o'clock
tea claims attention. Finally the
days duties are brought to close
by dinner, the meal par excellence.
In the matter of dress the same en-
travagant tendency is apparent.
Many ladies whose fortunes cannot
be considered large, spend SIX huns
dredpounds year on their toilettes,
and it is not uncommon fer thous>
and to be expended by those who
go out good deal.
The Coloniss says, statements
like these are not altogether pleas
ant reading at a time when social
problems connected with the con-.
dition Of the poor are uppermost IN
mems minds. The contrast between
Dives and Lazarus ia obvious and
painful. Misery and restitution
prevail as much as ever before while
tue selfish luxury and extravagant
splendor of the wealthy are on the
increase.

TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION:

There is a most excellent lady In
Chicago who has ffty-three dogs, not
counting two temporarily absent on a
scouting expedition. This lady is well
known in society circles, is a woman OF
means aud has an elegant home. She
has a great love for dogs, and, beginning
her collection some years ago with two
fac st. Bernards, she has in one way
and another increased it until there are
now fifty.three dogs, big and little, in
her establishment. They are not al
lowed to eat meat, but are treated ire-
.quently to oyster soup, poached eggs.
batter cakes, oatmeal, etc. Their
meals are prepared with as much care
as to cleanliness and form as though
they were human beings, and the food
is served as nicely as for invited guests.
Ten gallons of milk and twenty pounds
of oatmeal are fed to the dogs daily, to
say nothing of great quantities OF
oysters aud eggs. When the dogs are
sick they receive the most considerate
attention, and at no time are they sub
iected to scolding or punishment OF any
kind. The result Of this experiment has
been watched by many with the great
est interest. and there are some devel-
opments that would have made Darwin
dance with Joy. There is one fine old
st. Bernard. the aristocrat Of the col
ony. who will not touch his oyster soup
unless it ia just so. and will not eat out
of anything of lower grade than cut
glass. He will go thirsty for a whole
day rather than take drink from a
bucket or pan, but will go into trans
port tail-wagging ecstacy over water or
milk in china or cut glass dish.

ENTERED INTO REST.

The illness OF Mrs. H. w. Slower
which caused so much solIcitude in
this community during the past week,
terminated fatally Tuesday morning al
O'Clock at the family residence at the
corner of Seventh avenue ard Mechsn-
les street. The deceased was 81 years
of age She was the daughter of Chas.
Carter, of Eaton, Indiana, end was mar
ried to DIR. Slower at her fathers
home on the Attn of April,
1867. The result OF this
union was four children, the youngest Of
whom is less than a month old. The
subject of this notice came to EmpOria
with her family about five years ago,
from Kahoka, Missouri. Her health
was never vigorous and she had been for
years q sufferer from pulmonary trouble
She was a most devoted wife
and mother, and her fidelity to
her family impressed all who
enjoyed the privilege of knowing
her with sense of her modest virtues
She united early in life with the Cbris.
tan church and was an earnest and con-
sIstent disciple of the Master, whose
promises she found a source OF comfort
in every time of trial and distress. She
was kind and helpful neighbor, and
ever held herself ready to minister, ac-
cOrding to the measure OF
her strength to the wants
OF the needy and the afflicted. Her Dc
reaved husband and motherless children
have sustained loss in her death which
can never be repaid, and the sympathy
Of this community goes out to them in
this dark hour of sore affection.
The funeral took place at the Cor.
gregatiouai church Wednesday after
noon at 3 O'Clock. The services were
conducted by the pastor of the deceased
Elder Lott, who was assisted by Rev
DR. CordleY
