THOEBE-CARLISLE CONTEST.

The Report Of the Elections Committee
Declaring Thoebe Not Entitled to tho
Seat.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-The report OF tho
Elections Committee on the Thoebe-Carlisio
contest, made to the House by Chairman
Crisp, after q recital Of the offer Of the con-
testant's counsel to prove certain allega-
tions, says that as tho notice OF contest
fails TO specify them as grounds Of contest,
the well-established rule would be suffi-
cient negative answer to the application.
To induce the House to ordcr new hearing
of the case, the conte slant must show Ill
gence in the use Of the time allowed him by
statute, but in this case he took testimony on
only seven of the fifty days allowed him,
made no effort to procure evidence, avowed
that he never wanted to enter into the con-
test. and that no would like to get out OF it;
that he did not want 10 pay out money in
the matter, and had been forced into it by
the Labor clubs and his desire to repel the
imputation that had been cast upon him
that he and his counsel had been bought up.
In the opinion OF the committee, the laches
Of the contestant and his counsel have been
such as 10 preclude hun from asking fur
Their indulgence Of the House. Very care
full consideration of the papers satisfies the
committee beyond all reasonable doubt that
not one OF the substantial avermcuts Of the
contest could be established by satisfactory
proofs.
The committee comedies the right of the
House to investigate the title Of the con-
testee to a seal, even if the contestant has
been guilty Of such negligence as to pre-
clude him as IA party. But it fails TO SEQ
any thing in the present case calling for
an inquiry by this House Tor its own vindi-
cation or to purge itself Ok a member un-
elected IN fact After thus dsposing OK
the application for an extension. the COM
mittee takes up the case as shown py the
record, and finds that no evidence was pro-
duced which supports or tends 20
support any one OF the ffty-fve specitica-
tons filed by the contestant. His witnesses
prove nothing tending to impeach the fair
ness CT the election. The technical point
that the judges OF election in Trimble
County were all Democrats the committee
disnisses with the statement that it does
not follow that the State law was violated
in that particular. and cites the case of
Barnes vs. Adams in the Forty-first Con-
gress precedent for its decision. In
conclusion, the committee reported resolu-
tons declaring Carlisle, and not Thoebo,

Five Hundred Years Odds Living Lost
Artf
Is life worth living!
In the days of long ago people seemed to
think it was, if the length of time they de-
voted to becoming acquainted with its lights
and shadows is any criterion.
It would seem as though life must have
afforded much Of enjoyment in the good old
days Sophocles hung on until he was 100
years old, then persisted by an accident
Attila was l24 when he died of the conse-
Quencc of a revel on the night of his second
marriage. This is warning to young
men. Epemenides was 157 at his regretted
decease.
Crowns did not sit so heavily on the
brows of monarchs as they seem latterly to
do. Fohi, the founder Of the Chinese EN-
pire, reign cd lis years, and sodid Apaphus
Of Thebes Egyptian. Tacitus gives lis years
to Tuisco, German prince. Daddon, an
nlyrian noble, lived for 500 years according
70 Alexander Corn elius.
The art Of living seems to be one Of the
many "lost arts, }" which the dark ages COW
cred over, and modern civilization has not
get been able to uncover. 1t is certain long
life was not secured by using mineral poi
sons as remedies for disease. That is essen
TALLY modern practice. Theancients doubt
less drew on the laboratory of nature for
their medicines, hence the span of their
lives was naturally extended.
We know that our immediate ancestors
found their medicines in the fields and for
ests, adjoining their log cabin homes. These
natural remedies were eficacious and harm
less-left no poison in the system. Physi-
clans were rarely called in, and the people
lived to rugged and hearty old age Is it
not worth while to return to their whole

| Where Grapes, Tobacco, Butter, Coffee and

Bananas grow wild in great varieties,
some of them reaching to three OF four
times the size known to US, and in such
profusion that they were commonly
used RS fodder for animals. Potatoes
also grow wild. These the Pasha de-
scribed as of three kinds: Some big as
a mans head but longer in shape.
others a great deal longer and mar
rover and attached to roots which
sometimes spread rs far as twenty feet,
close under the surface of the ground;
when ripe they cracked the soil above
them and lay exposed to the air; the
third kind was our ordinary European
potato as big as mans fist and very
mealy when boiled
Tobacco was a native of the soil, and
tree called.komba or kumbu. of which
the sccd-pods are an excellent substi-
tute for coffee. 1t was described 20 me
as forest tree. producing large crop
of seeds. can speak from experience
of the beverage made from them We
habitually drank it during my after
noon visits to the Pasha, and the seed
and the manner of its preparation
were shown to me- 1t is an aro-
matte brown pod containing four
or five small, bright-crimson seeds
When fresh l was told one pod
is sufficient to fill room with its scent.
That which we drank had been gathered
for eighteen years, and was still ex-
tremely fragrant The coffee made
from it was rather more pungcnt than
ordinary coffee. and fancy more slim
ulating in its effect, tasting not unlike
coffee in which cayenne pepper pods or
ginger had been soaked.
Grapes, in many varieties of black
and white, grow wild in Mandugba ):
the sugar-cane, the india-rubber plant,
the tamarind and the date, all kinds of
European corn, many fruits of which
the Pasha could not give the names,
flowers in profusion-''so that at one
time the earth is scarlet and then again
it is white or blue''-and the variety of
birds and animals is great There is
kind of date-palm from which the ma
tives make butter. The fruit of it
grows in punches SO large that two
punches will load a camel. The date
itself is small and rich. When boiled
it melts into a compound yellow as
brass, having slightly sweet taste,
but resembling butter more than any
thing else, and useful, like butter. for
cooking. Honey is plentiful rs water.
