LONDON, Nov. 12.-The Local Govern
ment Board has made public its reply to
the letter recently addressed to 1t by the
Social Democratic Federation, calling at
ten ntion to the alleged enormous increase

in the month OF October. 1886, the per-
centage OF paupers in London was twenty
two 10 every Loco of population, while In
the same month OF the year 1868 the per-
ceDtage was forty-two to the 1000, and

Young Disciples of lola.

A trial which has just taken place in
the Pas dc Calais discloses in strik-
ing manner the pcrnicious effect of GER
cain kinds of literature on the weak
minds of the young. Two cousins OF
Is, sons of comfortable farmers in the
department, had been IN the habit OF
reading sensational romances. One OF
them named Clement Muchembled fell
in love with girl of 10 named Marie
Ledcnt, and their amours became the
subject of some verses written ut the
carnival time by n local poetaster
These verses were rather uncompli-
mentary to Clement who consulted his
cousin Henry, notary's clerk, about
them. He had received his copy of them
from Marie Ledent, with whom he was
accordingly furious. The two cousins
armed themselves with long knives to
be like Fennimore Coop RS heroes,
and called themselves by two Indian
names used by that nov list They
had at first intended to hang or shoot
the girl Ledent as she pas ed through
n forest, but resolved to spatch her
with the knives instead. They seized
her one evening and, having cut her
throat, gashed her body Ia seventeen
places. The young rascals had writ
ten long account of the murder and
the circumstances leading up to it,,
which they had entitled "A Horrible
Drama" The production showed
touches of naturalism worthy OF lola.
The miscreants have been condemned
TO fifteen ycrrs' penal servitude each,
and their parents have to pay f32O to
the father OF the murdered girl.

Louisiana alone have been prompt in
notifying the clerk officially who are
the representatives elect from those
states entitled to seats in the fiftieth
congress. No notices Of contest have
beed placed on file with the clerk as
yet, though it is probable that
the committee on elections will
have several cases to consider after or

HarrisOn's Libel Suit.

CHICAGO, Nov 27.--Judgc Rogers
allowed Mr.. Edwin Lee Brown a
change of venue of the suit for $780,
900 damages brought by Mayor Har
rison for alleged libel in speech de-
livcrcd at the North Side Turner Hall
nv Mr.. Brown, in which the mayor
was characterized as thief and a con-
sort of thieves. Mr.. Brown had filed
a petition stating that he believed
Judge Rogers to be prcjudiced against
him and asking for change. The
court was very much exercised on
reading the petition, and, declining to
hear arguments on the delicate ques'
ton, the case was placed on Judge
Collins calendar. Mr.. Trudc, who
appeared for Mr. Harrison, dismissed
the suit of the mayor against the
Inter Ocean and Edwin Lee Brown
Jointly. as to the Inter Ocean only, as
there is suit for 100000 by the
mayor against the newspaper alone
covering substantially the same
ground. As to Mr.. Brown in this
Joint suit, leave was given Mr. Trudo
to file, for Mr.. Harrison, additional
counts TO the latter's declaration, and
ordering Mr.. Brown to plead, answer
or dcmur in twenty days.

Origin of q Classic.

The June-bug poem is sufficient of a
classic already to secure reference as
1.-THE old song" Yet 1t has been before
the public less than two years. This
gem has been more often mutilated,
misquoted, and stolen than any other
poem of its length in the language.
There are at least half-dozen negro
minstrels who claim it. Its real author
was the "This and That man of the
Louisville Courier-Journao The June
bug poem is seldom given correctly. In
the original and most beautiful version
1t ran:
The June-bug hath a gaudy wing,
The lightning-bug has fame,
The bed-bug has no wings at all,
But he gets there just the same.
