QUESTION LEGAL.

OOQ mOtlVO ue 10 OCuIfiuO SS-
tos dias en- el nombramieuto de
Alcalde de esta Ciudad, varios de
nuestros colegas nan indicado
ideas Y opiniones, cuya oposicidn
al espiritu y letra de la ley nos es
precise demostrar.
Por millonGsima vez volvere-
mos, pues, restab'ecer la verda-
dera doctrina legal sobre aquel
case concrete, va que, segln pa
rece, Sc habla y escribe cual 81 Sc
hubiese olvidado.
Fl parrafo % del articulo 40 de
la Ley Municipal dice: "Cuando
el Gobernador General crea con-
veniente a los intereses de la To-
calidad no aceptar ninguno de los
propuestos (por las terna>) podra
nombrar Alcalde d persona que
reuna condolences para el d3sem
peno del cargo, a,tnqte no I erte-
Mecca aimunicipio."
Admit2mos por un momento,
aun cuando no debemos admitir
10, que 10 anterior necesita Igu-
ma explicaci6n, para saber hasta
donde llegan en- esta materia las
facultades discrecionalcs del scnor
Gobernador. Tan amplia Y tan
Categorical como fuera de desear
sc encuentra en- la mi~ma eapoSi

lido de la Ley, que es la ley mis-
ma, Y cuenta qua, segdn los prin-
gipios que hemos estudiado IN q
derecho, los preambulos de las
Ieyes son regla de Interpretation
de la. mismas.
Pues bien; en- la pagina :: de

The DerU.

The beautiful refreshing dew-what Is it,
where does it come from, what good does
it do? Did you ever think Of this, boys and
girls7 Perhaps not. You know that you
are deprived OF many a good scamper on
the grass plot In the morning because or
the dew, and that you are sometimes called
10 earlier than usual 10 the evening because
Of It. You know that it Is water that does
not fall from the sky a. the rain does; aud
you see 1t glistening on the cobwebs and
cabbage leaves like drops Of silver or strings
Of pearls. Where does 1t come from2
You have seen, many time, the water
stand,in drops on pitcher Of cold wateI
This comes 10 the same way that dew does,
aud 1t Is deN Also. Warm air has great
deal.1osN4eef 10 It, which We cannot see,
end when 1t grows cold or touches ANYTHING
cold, the water can no longer stay In the
air, aud 1t is left on anything near. The
air grows cool near the earth flrst, and 80
the dew Is left on the grass and low plants,
and the very little drops, which ~ first can
not be seen, gradually increase till 1t be-
comes, on clear nights, very Important
supply of water to the plants.

The Maine Hay Crop.

Now that the hay crop In this State Is
mostly secured, there Is much more salts.
faction as to the result than seemed to be
possible month ago, says q dispatch to
the Boston Herald. The season has been
unusually late, owing to the wet weather.
when the indications were such that the
LIST of July half tho usual yield was not ex-
pected, and fields cut then did not give
more than that amount, fields cut since the
rains have exceeded all estimates. In ma
ny cases the yield has been fully up to the
average. Especially has this been the case
In the more northerly sections, where the
crop Is the latest. Taken all together, It Is
safe to say that the Maine hay crop OF this
year Is about four-ffths as much as the
yield Of last year and about two-thirds Of
the amount for good season. Those who
grow hay only for the market express
themselves as well satisfied with the out
look. They say that the hay is ofu nusual-
~ good quality, and has been well secured.
They think the difference In price will full
ly make mp for what the shortage is In
bulk, and as they will at that rate have less
to ship and equal returns, they are happy.
But this feeling does not hold with those
who grow hay only for stock. With them
the short crop means low prices for cattle,
and prices which must be accepted,or feed
must be purchased In order to carry the
cattle through. 1t Is the consumer Of hay
that is pinched this year. 1t does not pay
the Maine farmers to buy feed.

A HOLIDAY FOR THE WlFE.-Give your
wife a vacation. She need one. Little
cares are harder to be borne than great
responsibilities, and she has many more lit
tie cares than her husband and sometimes
as great responsibilities. The doctor tells
US more women break down mentally than
men, and they also tell US that this Is be.
cause they have more cares TO carry, and
have to carry them continuously. When
your work Is done you can lock it up In
your Office and put the key 10 your pocket.
But she never locks her work up till sleep
comes aBd turns the key upon it. A wo-
mans work is never done. And modern
life has increased and intensified 1t. Cares
have multiplied faster than conveniences.
Life is more complex, It's demands are
greater and more numerous, society more
exciting. Who needs q vacation II she
does not? Aud she cannot get 1t At home.
The more quiet and restful the home Is to
you the more evidence that 1t Is q care II
not burden to her. A housekeeper can
no more take vacation 10 her home than
a merchant in his counting house. Even
though her absence occasions inconven-
fence give her an occasional vacation.

A retired old sea captain In the North Of
England bought horse to please his wife.
The animal proved to be frisky, and sever
al times succeeded In spilling the old lady.
At last the captain aided by another old
salt, attempted to break the unruly steed Of
bis vicious habits. He took . kedge an
Choir, with stout line, and fastening one
end Of the line to the axle OF his phaeton,
took the kedge aboard, and the two men
started for drive along the shore. Soon
the vicious animal spied something which
gave him an excuse to run away, and
dashed off with frightful vivacity. The
captain dropped the reins, and summoned
all hands to get 60 the "anchor." The an
Choir was let 60, and caught firmly In the
sand. The unsuspecting quadruped
pranced joyously along until he got to the
end Of the rope, and then he paused
paused 80 suddenly that the phaetou was
demolished, and the two men shot up into
the air like couple Of sky rockets, com.
ing down In fearfully dilapidated condi-
ton.

WHAT AFGHANs FIGHT WITH.-The Az
CHAN matchbox or jazail has NO parallel on
the face Of the earth. 1t Is about nine feet
long, and Is fitted near the muzzle with a
prong which supports it on the ground
when 1t Is about to be fred of. It 10 fitted
with a powder pan and catch for holding
q fuse. An Afghan marksman has to de-
pend upon the state Of his fuse, and there
fore he Is by no means q certain shot.
During the last Afghan war 1t used to be
q joke among the British soldiers that an
Afghan would poise his jazail upon rock
calculate when his enemy would be likely
to arrive In front Of the muzzle, flx his fuse
and then 60 of some little distance and sit
down and smoke. II the enemy arrived In
OF the matchbox just as 1t went OF, why
then he would most likely be killed, but
then II he didn't, and the weapon went of
a quarter Of an hour after he had passed 1t,
then no harm was done, and the owner
would philosophically ''set" the jazail again
In the hope Of catching the next conner,
and then go of to his rock, smoke and a.
wait Developments.

Mary had a Little Kid.

Mary had little black-sysd Kid.
An orphan-cosset-brough up by hand;
Whatever no saw that Mary did,
To Try that feat this dear hid WA bound
Dick would climb and play; yes he would butt
And one day pitched Mary 10 the pond;--
But eating was the kids strongest point
And Of Iar,s and stamps alike was FOND.
Sometimes he would try tempting shoe.
An aporn string or tomato can,
Or old hoop skirt; anything would do
For this sportiv young barbarian.
Poor Dick with wonder opened wide
When Mary took some Castoria Drops-
So no smashed the vial by her side
And tapped the dregs before he stopped;
Bounding out Of doors when feeling well,
Mary found Dick sullcn on the grass
Because he liked lie taste and smell
lie ate the cork and munched broken glass.
