the enterprise of the old woman
plucking her geese partake of the
character of divine blessings. True
enough, there may be tendsncy to
delay trains, throw the mails and
freights somewhat behind, tempo
rarily obstruct the pedestrian and
traveller, but think of the increased
employment created without serious
injury to interests concerned. Aside
from being a merely temporary in
convenience, affecting chiefly the
tempers of drivers, etc, there is
great health promoter in the cover
ing up of the filth deposits and the
coating over of those stench-emitting
apertures that closely relate to
by-no- means perfect system of sew
erage. Snow is purifier. At any
rate the atmosphere is never filter
for the lungs than when the ground
is covered with a fresh fall Of crisp,
dry snow. The inhalation of air at
such times is like draughts of cham
payne, exhilarating to the blood,
sending it leaping through the veins,
tlngling against the nerves, impart-
ing grow to the body, and freeing
the brain from the influence of foul
gases produced by the torpor of the
system. A man adds an hour to his
lease of life with every breath
drawn into the lungs at such a time.
When men are stirred up after this
fashion, business becomes pleasure,
work is delight, and the chains
and wheels and buzz of traffic are
set going with celebrity and force
that multiplies traffic a hundred fold.

CAPITAL NOTES.
MADDOX, Dec. 81, 1885.


An important case against the
Chicago, Milwaukee e st. Paul rail
way company was the subject of
much attention at the u. S. district
court last week. Mrs. Catherine
Fishburne bought a ticket on the
c., M. &. St. p. Ry at Pipestone,
Minnesota, for Edgerton, of the
same state. She intended to leave
the train at Edgerton to make her
daughter, who resided at that place,
visit. When the train reached
Edgerton, she told the conductor
that she would purchase ticket for
Chicago and make her visit at Ed
gerton on her return. Accordingly
she stepped into the depot, called
for a ticket, which the agent pro-
cured, and as she handed him a
twenty dollar bill, the agent deduct
ed the price of the ticket, which was
$3.50, and returned her change.
Just then she heard the conductor
cry out, "All aboard" and hastily
gathering in her change, she sup
posed she had her ticket with it and
90 boarded the train About half a
mile from the station the conductor
c9me through for the ticket and Mrs.
Fishburne was much surprised to
find no ticket about her person. She
claimed that TIE conductor abused
her and expelled her from the train.
She walked back to Edgerton and
demanded her ticket from the agent
who insisted that he had given it to
her. She went to her daughters
and remained over night,
On the next day the agent was
surprised to find the ticket in the
safe where he had unconsciously put
il, when returning the money on the
previous day lie thereupon hast
ened to the house where he found
the lady, and offered her the ticket
and to do anything reasonable or
possible to right the mistake. These
propositions were refused and the
company was sued for $4,000, in
consideration Of the severely hui
initiating and nervous shock" which
the lady claimed to have suffered.
The trial was watched with public
interest, every one seeming anxious
to know whether the jury would
bind corporation to so heavy q
penalty for so slight cause, espec-
tally when the company had offered
a fair settlement The jury pro-
nounced a verdict in favor Of the
defendant, the railroad company.
The day before, however, a case
against the G. d n. w. Ry. Co. was
decided against chat corporation.
Joseph Payne was wounded by the
explosion of boiler at TT. Atkin-
son, and brought action to recover
damages cor physical injuries result
ing from the accident and secured
the sum Of $500.

attention eff the court the remainder
Of the week. Ii was that Of the

ASKING TON LETTER.

dows are gorgeous with tempting
displays for presents, and the streets
and shops are tbronged with people
loaded down with purchases. From
nine o'clock in the morning until
after that hour in the evening, there
is ceaseless 'jostling between the
crowds who are engaged in buying,
and the thousands of promenaders
who are merely gazing at the beauti-
ful holiday goods.
Congress, too, il out holiday max
ing. 1t adjourned to-day, just two
weeks since it convened, to rest
from its labors until the fifth Of
January. Mr.. Beach, Representa-
tive from New York, opposed the
idea, which he called a childish one,
of taking holiday recess. At this
time, he held, it was attended with
danger, aud he appealed to a Demo
cratic House to at least go as far as
Republican Senate had gone IN
taking some action upon the Presi-
Dental succession bill before indulg-
ing in n vacation.
REPRESENTATIVE Findley, Of Mary
land, was also anxious to have the
bill passed, saying it was infinitely
more important than any speech
that could be made upon it. 4
Member from West Virginia, Mr..
Gofr, asked if the bill was any more
important now than when, under a
Republican President, the Democrat
ic side of the House opposed it. Mr..
Findley then asked how long the
Republican side of the House wanted
to discuss the bill before a vote
could be reached. A voice replied

A DEMOCRATIC exchange points
to the action of the Republican SEN
ators in passing bill by which
they deprive their own party Of the
chance of seeing Republican in
the presidential chair before 1889,
while it assures to the Democrats
the control of the executive power
Of the government till that time, as
an evidence that partisan malevo-
lence and unscrupulousness have
recently much abated. We are
afraid that this is only fond delu-
sion. If the circumstances had been
such that the same measure would
have operated favorably to the Re
publicans, our contemporary would
have discovered that partisan male
Violence and unscrupulousness are
just as extreme as they ever were.
The Republicans are willing to en-
act a fair and just law, regardless of
its immediate effect to secure them
in power; but if the situation were
changed, and we had now Repub-
lican president with a Democratic
presiding officer in the senate, there
is not a Democrat in the congress,
or Democratic newspaper in the
United States, that would favor the
Hoar bill. The action of the Demo
cratic house on this when it passed
the senate three years ago fully war
rants this Observation-Disclosures
Sentinel.
The venerable London Morning
Post, the Oldest organ of Toryism
and the aristocracy, predicts that
civil war will involve England and
Ireland before the Irish question
shall be settled. Mr.. Chamberlain,
the breezy young leader of the radi-
cal wing Of the Liberals, talks in
nearly as sanguinary strain.
PRESIDENT ARTHUR was accused
by Democratic reformeTs of being
extravagant, and yet President Cleve-
land asks for $4,000 more cash for
White House purposes than Arthur
did, and the same reformers are as
silent az oysters.
ONLY something like 900 bills
have been introduced in Congress,

Fertile Lands in Patagonia.

The expeditions Of the Argentine Republic
which in the past two years have driven
troublesome Indians In the southern part OF
that country west of the Andes, have brought
home remarkable reports OF Patagonia, a
large part OF which they crossed In various
directions. Patagonia has been generally
supposed to be q bleak and sterile waste.
The Argentine expeditions, however, report
the discovery there of vast expanse Of
beautiful and fertile country capable Of sup
porting a very large population.
These fertile regions arc said to form q
quadrilateral extending from the Limay or
Negro River. about 400 south latitude. far to-
ward the Straits OF Magellan. They are
about 100 TO 100 miles wide, and lie between
the Andes and the barren country strewn
with lava and extinct volcanoes that begins
midway between the two oceans and extends
to the Atlantic.
Gen. VILLEGAs. who, In 1888, led part Of
the Argentine army into these regions, re-
ports to the Minister OF War that they will
prove rich prize to the republic when the
pampas, 700 miles wide that separate them
from Buenos Ayres, are crossed by rail
He says the soil will supply q very large
variety OF products. and that the country
abounds in lakes and small rivers, and is well
adapted for colonization.
