MINORITY REPORT OF FINANCE COMMITTEE.
Mr.. Dickey presented the following mi
nority report from the Finance Committee:
Hon. J. S. Walker, President of the Leg
islative Assembly-Sir: A minority re-
port OF your Committee of Finance wish
to make special report on the subject of
cash tags in the Department of the Inte-
rior
1t has been for years, we are informed,
and now is, the habit of that department
to carry, as part of its cash on hand, re-
ceipted bills for amounts paid out without
authority of Appropriation bill. The
amount of such cash tags at the present
date is nearly SO, 900. OF this amout $1O,-
9O7 03 was expended during the past
period. AS a settlement with the Minister
of Finance required that this amount
should be paid into the Treasury in cash at
the close of the period, settlement was
delayed long enough to allow the receipt of
enough cash in this period to cover the
same. The tags were then exchanged for
cash, and the amount paid over to the
Minister of Finance as of March 81. 1886.
The balance of the tags now on hand are
for current expenses of the several bureaus,
which are not covered by the provisions of
the last Appropriation bill.
The items belonging to last term are:
New Police Station. ......-..... S6,S9S 20
Light house expense .......... 2,174 80
Government printing. ........... 976 80
Compiling laws ..............-.. 400 %

We are of opinion such practice is de-
serving of censure, and should not be al
lowed,
All receipts of the Interior Department,
as well as all Others. should be turned
promptly into the Treasury, and no ex-
penditures made except by the Minister OF
Finance. and by vouchers duly approved
by those in charge of departments or bu-
reaus and the Auditor General, None of
these vouchers have been approved by the
Auditor General. although the amounts
were paid in some oases nearly two years
ago. Respectfully submitted,

A Bachelors Society.

M. P. Howell, of Spencer, was in town
recently, and made an application to
Judge Smith for permission to obtain a
charter for what is termed the Society of
Bachelors. The object of the organiza-
ton is to promote marriage, but not Who'll
~ discourage those who never intend to
marry, and, not to deter them from enter
ing the association, they are also provided
for A fund is raised by provisions of the
charter by assessments upon the mem
bers, and from this each member is to be
paid $500 upon his marriage. After a
certain number of years the old bachel-
ors will receive $1,000. Judge Smith, of
course, gave his consent, and articles of
incorporation will be filed soon at the
clerks office in Oswego and with the Sec
rotary of state. The headquarters of the
Society of Bachelors will be at Spencer,
and branches will be found wherever de-
sired. There are enough bachlors, if
they all put their shoulders to the wheel,
to give the new organization a boom, but
then there are some bachelors who always
stand in their own light.

He Was Il Hero.
San Francisco Chronicle

He was on a spree and they put him in
to q carriage and sent him home. On
the road the carriage door, not having
been properly closed he leaned upon it
heavily and fell out. If he had been an
honest, sober, good man, who was an ex-
ample of a first-class citizen, he would
have been killed; as he was drunk he fell
head first against the cobbles, and all
his bruises were black eye and cut in
his lip. He staggered into a bar where
he was known. The barkeeper looked at
him, and having heard of the accident, al
ready, he concluded to have joke with
him.

''You bet [ had. But I cleaned him
out. I tell you I'm a bad man. We
fought for an hour and [ got away with

And he put up his fists and gave an Ella
borate account of the fight.

"--if [ know. left him in the re-
ceiving hospital. L guess he's in the NOR

And the drunken hero remembers more

The King and his Doctors.

A good story is told of King Ernest of
Hanover. He was seriously i'll, and saw
numerous doctors, but he would not take
any medicine. AS any bottle or powder
was brought, his majesty said, g Put it in
the cupboard;" and again and again it
was ''Put in the cupboard" Not one drop
was touched. Starving and patience were
the only remedies resorted to. At last his
majesty got good turn and began to feel
that he could eat again with relish, and
by degrees nature flung off the disorder,
whatever it was, which had run its course.
His majesty was up and dressed early, and
at business. SECT all those bottles, pow
ders and pill boxes out of the cupboards,"
he said, land range them in a row round
the ROOM" It was very small room, and
they almost made circle round the walls.
The doctors came in, Sinking and smil-
ing, and congratulated the king upou his
being up again and looking so well. "Yes,
doctors" said his majesty, "Thank God it
is so. But look there-couut it up.
Don't you think if I had taken all that
id stuff I should have been dead long
ago?"

A Painful Situation.

At a landing below Baton Rouge about
thirty colored people came aboard the
boat. Among them was likely young
woman with whom one of the colored
roustabouts at once fell in love. We all
noticed them making eyes at each other
during the afternoon, and finally gentle
man from Illinois said:
II don't see any reason why they
shouldn't marry"
"But have we any clergyman aboard ~
queried another.
A third gentleman replied that we had

wearing spectacles and a choker and in
formed him that his services were re-
CURED The man from Illinois went
down to the colored woman and asked if
she thought the roustabOut would make a
good husband, and she replied in the
affirmative. He went over to the man.
and he owned up that he was dead gone.
The couple were at once brought up
stairs to the cabin, and all the passengers
collected. We Clipped in 81 apiece, the
clergyman gave his services gratis, and
the marriage ceremony went on in good
style. After everybody had got through
copgratulating the happy couple some
one inquired of he groom what he was
going to do.

replied as he stood with uncovered head.

At this the bride uttered a yell, the
clergyman sank into the nearest chair,
the silence became profound and painful
We had gone and married married man
to young woman.
"Twant my fault, said the groom, as
he jingled our collection in his pocket.
81 din't know muffin bout it," added
the bride as she walked out of the cabin.
The preacher said nothing could be
done, but the captain took the groom by
the ear and remarked;
John Henry, you can keep the money,
but you let that woman alone. If I find
you speaking to her I'll break your back.
Move along, now"

Told by the Miner.

Jack Garrett, a miner who came in from
the hills few days ago with his hands
and feet badly frOst-bitten. tells rather
peculiar story as to the way he came to be
IN that plight, but more particularly as to
the way In which he escaped being frozen
to death. About a couple of years ago he
and some companions were going up to
mine on the Mosquito range, known as
the Little COrrinne. They had several
burrOs packed with provisions and min
ing supplies, and at one part of the trail
near the head of Birds Eye gulch, where
the mountain is very steep, one of the
burrOs In attempting to pass another was
crowded off the trail. and went rolling
down the mountain side into the gulch.
The poor animal was, of course. killed
outright, and it was not thought worth
while to try to get possession of the load
of supplies that accompanied the burrO
down the mountain side as the expense of
bringing it back on the trail would be
greater than to buy new supplies.
Nothing more was thought of this Incl
dent In particular, but the men interested
IN 1t. But several days ago, before the
late storm, Jack Garrett, who has cabin
near the head of the Arkansas River, and
is prospecting there, started to come
DO Leao ne and thought 1T would be
good scheme, as he YVES a good snow
sheer, to cross the mountain and cut off
about one-third of the distance. He got
along nicely until he came into the gulch
as the head of Birds Eye, when he broke
one of his snow-shoes, which was of the
pattern known as Norwegian snow-shoe.
To add to his confusion the snow storm
oversook him at this time and he was nm
able to proceed farther, SO seeking the
the best shelter he could find, under a
huge rock, he gathered together some dry
limbs from the trees and thought he would
build a fire and wait for the storm to
cease, but when he came to light his fire
he discovered that he was not in posses
ton of a single match. He now became
discouraged not to say frightened, as he
realized that he would probably have to
remain there for some hours before the
storm would abate sufficiently to al
low him to proceed, even if he

Had to Kick Somebody.
Philadelphia North American.

'In India said gentleman with an ORR
entail tan on his face, ''the customs with

When a man is invited to a dinner party,
or sitting at a table in his boarding house,
his own bearer or body servant, stands
behind his chair to wait upon him. The
exlgencies of the feast often makes it
necessary for bearer to serve somebody
other than his own master, but on such
occasions the guest is expected to over
look any shortcomings of which the at
tendant may be guilty; for in India the
rule. Insult my servant and you insult
me- is acknowledged everywhere.
"Once at a boarding house on the
Chouringee road in Calcutta I saw a

Englishman with curry, spill a little

Cushing'S Manual in Court.

had was "Cushing's Manual" The first
case before him was that of a cowboy for
stealing a steer. When the case was call
ed, the only lawyer in the little town was
there to defend the prisoner.
''As there is no counsel for the other
SIDE" he said, Il make a motion that the
case be dismissed"
The Justice looked over his manual.
"A motion has to be seconded" he
said.
L second the notion" promptly re-
sponded the prisoner.
1.-THE motion has been made and sec
ondeed the case be dismissed,'' said the
court. ''All in favor will please say aye
The prisoner and his attorney voted
aye.
''All opposed say no"
Nobody voted.
1.-THE motion is carried and the case is
dismissed" remarked the court. "A mo-
ton to adjourn is now in order.
The prisoner made the motion, and the
court adjourned.

should then be able to reach any
habltatlon through the deep snow
without snoW-shoes. He therefore real
lied that something must be done quick
y. Being near the place where he
thought the burro had fallen down the
mountain two years before, and remem-
berlng that among the supplies on that
particular jack there were some matches,
he thought possibly he would be able to
find the remains of the pack and, if the
matches had not been ruined by damp,
he could secure them. Starting out with
this slim hope he followed along the base
of the cliff where the snow had been blown
away by the wind striking against the
sides and being whirled down against the
snow. He had not proceeded great dis
lance when he found what he was looking
for, and strange to say, the box that con-
tanned the matches, although it was burst
open, lay in such a way as to protect them
from the dampness of the melting snow
and the rains of summer. With the piec-
es of the box, and the nails obtained by
taking the box apart, Carrot was enabled
to mend his broken snOw-shoe and reach
town the next day. Nothing can persuade
him that it was for anything but his spec
ial salvation that that burro was caused to
fall down the mountain side.
