VIENNA, Jan. 30.-Owing to the president
of the Reichsrath having insulted journal
list during recent session the entire Austrian
press both in the capital and the provinces
are revenging themselves by emitting all re-
ference to the R-ichsrath's proceedings. The
government are astounded by this singular
movement, which is causing a great sensa-
ton in all quarters The members of the
Reichsrath urge the government to retaliate
by suspending the privileges which the press
have voluntarily rejected. The ministry,
however, are in doubt as to what action if
any would tend to vindicate their dignity.
The president of the Reichsrath offered an
apology to the offended journalist soon after
the occurrence referred to, but it does not
seem to have been deemed a sufficient atone
ment.

Sen ator Edmunds to Move Its Recon
alteration.


WASHINGTON JAN 3O-The Senate in ex-
ecutive session yesterday removed the in
junction of secrecy from the list of yeas and
nays the vote by which the Clayton-Bul-
wer treaty was ratified in 1850 and from the
messages of Presidents Polk and Tyler con-
veying the Heise treaty so-called and the New
Granada treaty and ordered them printed.
A number of Senators to-day expressed sur
prise that the Senate should establish prec
edent by making public the detailed vote on
the Clayton Bulwer treaty. There is no dis
position at present to follow that precedent
and make public yesterdays vote, which re-
suited in failure to ratify the Nicaragua
treaty. Mr.. Ednunds during the executive
session yesterday changed his vote for the
purpose of entering a motion to reconsider
the vote by which the treaty failed of ratif-
cation. This motion he has since entered
A prominent Senator said this evening he

remember when the telegraph was first
INTRODUCED into Japan, there was always a
native staff with one European in charge
of the office. AT first, while the Japs were
learning to send messages. they had to RELY
upon that European entirely. The natives
themselves were too proud to acknowledge
ignorance of English. and when Il message
was brought in, if the native operator was
there he would look learned, as if he I'M
derstood all about it, and when the sender
left he would show the message to some
oIhef foreigner and GsH him 10 read il.
This lasted for awhile. until the firms
began to find out al about each others
business, and then il stopped. But the
japanese are very precise and correct as a
rule, n their pronunciation Of English. as
they learn more Or iess like parrots. Ono

ADIRONDACK MURRAY.

The correspondent of the Hartford
Courant says:
Thursday noon set out for the Snow
Shoe cafe, at No 1851 Notre Dame
street. There in front of the fritter
range, just within the door, was the
gifted Murray; he whose pulpit ora
toryused to electrify the worshippers
in the old corner church in Meriden
years ago, he whose pioneer hunting
excursions into the Adirondacks and
the stories he wrote about the North
wood did more to open up that vast
tract than all the other agencies COM
bined, he whose horses used to van
quish all others at the agricultural fairs
when the lines were held by himself,
he whose magnetic discourses from the
pulpit of Park street church in Boston
used to draw crowds of admirinps
supporters, and he of the unfortunate
Boston Blackboard company-there he
stood, dividing his attention between
the simmering oyster fritters over the
fire and the large bowl of cabbage slaw
standing by from which he dipped out
small portion to go with each order
for fritters. There was no installing
him. His tall, manly figure was as
erect as it ever was, although his frame
had expanded since / saw him last
years ago, when he was fishing in
famous trout stream with his old friend
o. I'll. Plat, now one of Connecticut's
Uuited States senator's. And the hand
which turned the fritters in the boiling
fat was the samethat used to write the
substantial editorials in the Golden
Rule, and the same that penned the
leading poem for the carnival number
of the Montreal Star Impossible, you
may say, but true nevertheless.

WHAT A MAHDI IS.



Mabdi, or Mahadi, as D'Herbelot
speels it, is an ancient title in the Mos

ply director of the faithful. But in the
course of Moslem history, and especial
ly Moslem history in Africa, it came to
have another Specification related to an
accepted prophecy Of Mohammed. 1t
necessarily refers to the African part
of Arabic history. By this secondary
significance of the word, the Mahadi is
a certain ancient leader come again.
His appearance is the "second advent"
of a prophet who lived in the old days,
and who in all the mean time has been
with the implortals. Mohammcd, the
18th Imam and the 18th in descent from
Ali, is the real original. He is the Ma
hadi who comes every now and then.
He was hidden from the world at an
early age, and communed only with his
disciples through his lifetime, and final

fixed intention of returning to revive
the glories of Moslem.

A Big Birds Nest,

eter and six or eight feet highy There are
such nests in the Molufca Islands, made,
too, by bird as small, if not smaller, than
the straw-in-tail, and called mceapodius.
Like the tropic bird, too, they frequent the
scrubby jungles alora the sea-sh0!e, where
the soil is sandy, but they have ranarEa-
bly, large and strong feet ana long claws.
Where there Is a considerable quantity Of
debris, consisting cf sticks, shells, sea-
weeds and leaves, megapodius forms iil-
mense mounds, often with comparative
ease, for with their long feet they can grasp
and throw backward large quantity of
material. In the center Of this mound, al
the depth Of two or three feet, the eyss are
deposited, and are hatcied by the gentle
