NOT ACCORDING TO uoYzE.
Mr. adams, President Of the luton Pacific,
Writes TO Senator Hoar.

mr.. adams, President Of the Umi0n Pacific,
Hrites to Senator Hoar.
A letter from Charles Francis Adams, presI-
dent of the Union Pacific railroad is devoted
TO discussion of the policy Of congress to-
ward the Pacific roads, and regards that pur-
sued last year as an economically faulty one.
Mr.. Adams thinks 1t is not to the interests Of
the government to force the Union Pacific to
take annually these large sums out of its cap
ital and stack them up In the overlooking ma
tories are demanding additional railroad facil-
ities, which would add to the traffic and in
come of the company. This policy, he sug-
gests, takes from the company and commu-
nifty just SO much fructifying capital that Is
greatly needed to promote the interests Of
both. In view OF the previous action Of con-
gress he regards his views as dissented FROM
and reviews the course the bill has taken since
its Introduction. He thinks the present status
the best OF the plans to carry out the apparent
wishes of congress and accepts the senate ju-
dietary BILL and says the company will Loyalty
live up to it to the best of it's ability. In
conclusion, he refers to the statements made
in the senate and in various newspapers that
Jay Gould was the controlling power and he
(Adams) but figure-head, set up for the pur-
pose of carrying out Gould's schemes. Such,
he says, is not the case. He was not Gould's
choice for president. Gould is consulted as
one Of the directors only, as any other men,
Der of the board is consulted. He wishes to
be held solely responsible for the management
of the road

Where False Teeth Come From.

A correspondent of The 81. Janaes's
Gazette writes the following: Apropos
of your article on body-snatchers, and
the statement that it was even worth
their while ''to rifle grave for the
sake of the teeth" remember dent
list who made a large fortune by his
practice telling me very curious an
ecdote. He said sixty or seventy years
ago, before artificial material was used
for teeth, it was often difficult and al
ways expensive to obtain teeth. One
night huge ill-favored fellow called
at his office, and offered him a very
considerable quantity of teeth, and
named his price. The bargain was
struck, and the fellow told the dentist
how he got them. He had pretended that
his wife was dead, and went with tears
in his eyes to city church and saw
the sexton, and asked him about the
place she could occupy in the vault,
and learned the scale of charges. He
was shown over the vault, and while in
it he stood with his back toward the
small door leading into the church
yard. by which door the bodies were
brought in. He managed to undo the
bolt, and the same night he entered by
that very door and ransacked every
coffin, thus obtaining the large supply
of teeth my friend purchased.

SENATE.

. SENAIEs
The galleries of the senate on the 9Th were
crowded to their utmost limits long before
noon. At promptly noon the vice president
entered from door to the left of the presi-
dents desk, accompanied by Rev. DR.. Butler,
pastor of the Lutheran Memorial church, of
the city. The galleries applauded Hendricks,
which manifestation its recipient abruptly ter
minated with his gavel. The senators rose at
this and Butler offered a prayer. Upon it's
conclusion, the vice presids mt took the chair
and was again greeted with p!audits. He
called the senate to order and. in voice
audible only to the clerks, called for the read
ing of the journal.
The following cabinet nominations were
sent in by President Cleveland: Secretary Of
state, Thomas F. Bayard, of Delaware; secre-
tary of the treasury. Daniel Manning, of New
York; secretary of war, William C.. Endicott,
of Massachusetts; secretary of the navy, VIII
liam c.. Whitney, of New York; secretary of
postmaster general, William F. Villas, oil Wis
consin; attorney general, A. II. Garland, of
Arkansas.
When the cabinet nominations were taken
up in the executive session Riddleberger OBJ
jected to the immediate consideration of the
nomination of Bayard, and stated briefly that
he did so because of Bayard's attitude upon
the Irish question. Riddleberger thought him
more English than American. Bayard's name
being first on the list, the consideration of
all the nominations went over under the rules
for one day and the senate adjourned.

Execution OF Domestic Animals for
Murder.

According to the Roman law if man
was hurt by tame animal, as by a
vicious horse or dangerous bull, the
owner afforded satisfaction by the sur
render of the animal. The same rule
extended to q mans slave, and also to
his son, both of whom were regarded
by the Roman law as his chattels. The
Burgundian medieval law enacted thar
where one tame animal was hurt by an
other the offending animal was to be
surrendered. It was medieval prac-
tice in Germany and Scandinavia to
hang wolves and dogs with. criminal;
as symboGcal mark of disgrace and
as an aggravation of his punishment.
Saxo EXAMINATIONS states that the as
ISOLATION of wolves at the hanging Of
the criminal was al ancient pun
ishment for parricide; and in Germany
the custom of hanging dogs with the
sufferer was particularly applied to the
Jews. Rororius, a Papal Nuncio at the
Court of Hungary in the sixteenth
century, wrote and published a Il eatise
to prove that animals are rational, and
that they make better use of their
reason than man. In this work he
stated that it was customary in Africa
to cruelty lions, in order to deter them
from entering towns; and he had him
self seen two wolves hung from glib
bet in the forest between Cologne and
Juliers, as an example to other wolves.
The Roman custom of annually cruelty
ing dogs, on account of their failure to
give the alarm when the capital was
scaled by the Gauls, must be considered
as commemorative, not penal infic-
ton. 1t may be observed that animals,
though conscious of the idea of danger
without which they would not pre-
serve their ives-are destitute of the
idea of death, and that the infection of
death upon one animal would not oper-
ate by way of example upon another
animal The same remark may, in.
deed, be extended to all punishments
inflicted upon animals. A whipping
administered to one dog is no warning
to another dog. All punishments of
animals must, in order to be operative,
be individual; and hence the capital
punishment of an animal is an absurd
ity, because it e1tinguishes the life of
the only animal upon which the pun
ishment can epersts.

CHER NAME.n

Then father took the Bible down
And In his clear, old-fashioned hand
Upon its Record pages brown
de wrote the name as 1t should stand.
But protest came from all the rest
AT giving such little fairy,
The dearest, sweetest, and the best,
That antiquated name to carry.
And aunts and second-cousins cry
"a name so worn and ordinary
Could not be found If one should try,
AS that same appellation Mary"
And DER and DER again they laud
Her yellow curls, her baby grace;
"Oh, call her 'Ethelind,' or Maud
Or Christine for her angel-face."
"But time will change this golden fleece
To match the eyes in dusKy splendor;
Far better name her Beatrice
Or 1mogen,' serene and tender"
"Oh, name the child for Aunt Louisa,
For she. good soul, is well-to-do,'
The compliment is sure to please her,
And we can call the darling Lou"
Most prudent counsel, all too late!
'Twixt Malachi's and Matthew's pages
Appears, Interchangeable as fate,
The name beloved of all the ages.
The ancient gem, its purity
Unspoiled shall grace our latest beauty
Sometime on dearer lips to be
The synonym of love and duty
And gracious womanhood adorn,
However fortunes gifts may vary,
Till on day like Easter Morn
She hears the Master call her 'Maryn

Mrs. Andrews was widow OF sew
eral years experience. She had been a
widow ever since old General Andrews

tel. The old fellow was a convivial-

resulted from the inability of bis phys

but little time in mourning. Rainy
