Every democrat should make it point
not to change his residence until after
Nov. 6. if he contemplates moving, un-
less he remains in the same ward. The
law requires residence of thirty days in
a voting precinct. and if you change your
location inside of that period you will
lose your vote.

l know of only two practical stenographers
in congress One is Hit, of Illinois, who

secretary of the Paris legation, and the other
is Ford, of Michigan, who before he became
congressman was an official court stenog-
rapher. Mr.. Ford has found his accom-
plishment Of the utmost use to him since he
has been in Washington. During the tariff
debate, whenever a speaker said anything
that he thought could be refuted, be would
take it down in the mysterious characters Of
his art, and when his time came to answer
he often surprised his adversaries by the way
in which he quoted their remarks. He has

AnecdOte of Jenny Lind.

When Jenny Lind was in Edinburgh in
the year 1865, she was one day purchas-
ing songs in a music sellers in Prince
street. The attendant who served her, a
young man, not knowing who stood
before him, asked if she had yet been to
hear the great Jenny Lind The
question being answered in the affirma.
tive, and he in turn being asked by this
stranger if he had heard the Swedish
Nightingale he replied that, much
though he desired to hear her, the very
high. prices of the tickets We're far beyond
his slender income. Jenny Lind then
asked him to play the accompaniment to
the song which she held in her hand.
Quite unconscious of everything but the
sweet notes which poured forth from this
strangers throat, the young man played
on. At the close the singer turned
round, babe him adieu, and with the
words, "Now you have heard Jenny
Lind" walked out of the saloon, without
waiting for word of thanks from the
astonished youth.-Leeds Mercury.

TO WEAR NIGHTCAPS BEFORE
THE KING.
From the British Workman

FROM the British Workman
Among curiosities of history may be
included patents for wearing nightcaps.
Several noblemen and gentlemen, chiefly
in their old age, have been granted the
privilege of appearing at court and other
places in their caps. Perhaps the most
interesting document bearing on this
subject is patent granted by Queen
Mary to the Earl of Sussex. He suffered
much from colds in his advanced years,
and on this account petitioned her mai
esty to grant permission for him to wear
his nightcap when he waited upon her.
The queen readily granted his request,
adding that he might wear two if he wish
ed to do so. The following is copy of
the patent:
Know We, that we do give to our we'll
beloved and trusty cousin and councillor,
Henry Earl of Sussex, Viscount Fitz-
walter. and Lord Of Egremond and Per-
nell, license and pardon to wear his cap,
cor, or nlghtcap. or any two of them,
at his pleasure, as well as in our presence
as In the presence of any other person or
persons within this realm, or in any other
place in our dominions wheresoever. dur
ing his life: and these our letters shall be
his sufficient warrant in his behalf.
a patent granted by Henry VIII. to
Walter Copinger reads:
Henry, by the Grace of God, King of
England and France, and lord of Ireland,
TO all men our own subjects as well of
spiritual pre-eminence and dignities as
of temporal authority, these our letters
hearing and seeing, and to every of them
greeting. Whereas, we are credibly in
formed that our trusty and well-beloyed
subject Walter Copinger, is so diseased
in his head that without his great danger
he cannot conveniently be discovered of
the same. In consideration whereof we
have by these presents licensed him to
use or wear his bonnet upon his head as
well in our presence as elsewhere, at his
liberty. Wherefore, we will and COM
mand you and every of you TO permit
and suffer him so to do, without any
your challenge, disturbance, or Interrupt
ton to the contrary, as you and every of
you tender our pleasure. Given under
our signet at our manor of Greenwich
the 24th day of October, in the fourth
year of our reign. Henry II.
