ITEMS OF INTEREST.

When little children gambol they do
not play for money.
The man who invented the office-boy
has great deal on his conscience.
The woman who can control her own
tongue is greater than he who ruleth a
city. She is also scarcer.
We always admire what we cannot
understand. Maybe that is why so
many women get married.
Inquisitive people are the tunnels Of
conversation; they do not take in any
thing for their own use, but merely
pass it to another.
When a man sets out to learn what a
woman thinks the experiment usually
ends by his telling her everything that
he thinks himself And generally she
doesn't find the information very valu-
able.
Mr.. Chapman will introduce bill into
Congress, next Monday, prohibiting
aliens from being presidents, superin-
tendents, managers or directors of
American corporations; also extending
the citizenship provision TO railroad
engineers, the same as at present to
steamboat engineers. He considers
this most imperative along the Cana
dian frontier, where he says aliens arc
elbowing out American citizens. II
will supplement the Oates bill. already
introduced, prohibiting aliens from
holding property in the county. The
purpose of both bills is TO force aliens
to become American citizens.

LONDON, April ls.-Boulanger, IN pursuance OF
his policy OF advertising himself on every possible

1t Is not yet decided whether he will incur the re-
sponsibility OF walking from his residence at the
Hotel Louvre, to the chamber, accompanied by the
seven deputies who worked SO hard for him at
Lille. How high the political feeling runs in Paris

drew revolver and wounded the other 50 severely
that he Is not expected to recover Much OF Bou-

A large number OF the democrats OF the House
have signed call for caucus to be held tonight,
to consider the order OF business. The principal
thing for the caucus TO do Is to decide
upon q reasonable limit for the general
debate on the tariff bill, and for the debate
on amendments afterward, so that q time
may be nxed within which the bill may be dis
posed Of. The friends OF other measures are
clamorous for time In which to consider their
bills. 1t Is proposed 10 set aside certain night
sessions for this general business, as well as for
the consideration OF appropriation bills, and for
further debate OF the tariff. It.is probable that
there will be three or four night sessions each
week while the tarin bill Is pending. and In this
way they hope to dispose OF the various important
measures that demand consideration.
