| Yesterday the case Of the valid
Iity OF the Constitutional Amend
nents passed upon by the LegisIa-
ture of 1885 came up before the
Supreme Court. Amendments l
and 8 werc chosen as the ones on
which the case was to be made.
Amendment l provides that the
Legislature shall convene on the
third Monday of January instead of
the 6rst. and Amendment pro-
vides that the Office OF Lieutenant
Governor shall be abolished.
| Attorney General Alexander
argues in favor of the validity of
the Amendments, and Judge Wells,
Private Secretary of the Governor,
opposed them.
1t was held that there were two
reasons for invalidating the Amend
slents. First, they had not been
properly journaIizsd, and next,
J they had not been properly adver-
tlsed.
General Alexynder held that the
question of jouraalizing was vague,
and that the strict letter of tho law
had been modified. The question
of advertising. General Alexander
considered had been complied with
by the advertising OF 1886, and it
was therefore not necessary to again
advertise in 1885, as the voters al
ready had read them.
Judge Leonard asked tho very |
pertinent question what q voter was |
to DO who had not been in the State |
when the first publication was
made, and the learned counsel sug-
gested that in that case he had
better not vote if he could not as
certain what the amendment-
which was only numbered on the
ticket-referred to.
The question arose as to hew
many votes were necessary to cause
. Constitutional amendment to be
adopted by the people.
1t was held that it required q
of all the votes cast thereon
meaning tho amendments, SO that
if only 100 people took the trouble
to vote on the amendments and 81
voted in their favor, those 81 votes
would be sufficient to pass them,
but the authorities on various States
differed on the proposition.
Judge Wells in referring to the
changing OF the Constitution, said
It seemed very simple thing to do
when one reads the Jaw, but from all
the State had been
unfortunate in any of its
legislation on the subject.
He considered that the action Of ]
the Senate IN 1885 had been in
strict compliance with the law, the i
action of the House had been ire +,
yular and in 1887 the action of both
Senate and House, had been ire !
.ular. and the amendments had not :
been properly spread upon the s
minutes in the House either time. \
Judge Wells laid great stress on
he refusal of the Board to adver-
Use the amendments AS the law
,lainly directed.
He held that this advertising
vas contemplated by the legislature =
o give tho amendments wide spread
'ublIcity so that each voter could |,
ote intelligently upon the PROPOSE n
len. 20
At the close of the argument the s
,ourt took the case under advise !

Curiosity That Was. Costly.

'sWe were ell busily at work, j" said an em- ploye in an N and L. office the other morn ing, "when the chief clerk entefed and took his seat He had not been long at his desk when a messenger boy came with a telegram, which was received with great appearance Of emotion on the part of the recipient. Springing from the chair in which he was seated, he rushed bareheaded from the office, leaving the telegram behind him on his desk. "What could it meanr was question not asked, but predominant in every mind At last clerk, Lolder than the rest, lounged to the desk and seized the message. Quick as a flash he dropped it and ran out of the door. This was repeated until the office was empty. Now the telegram read: Purchase all the stock on the market Big advance in price at an early date This was signed by noted Wall street speculator and, as each clerk had a little fund saved up yon can imagine the cause of their pre.pit;,te departure from the office. We were not gone long. but when we returned, one by one. after investing oui last dollar, the chief clerk was there to well come us with meaning smile. Nothing was said The stock fell very low that evening, and we lost all our money. Still nothing has been said, but there is great deal thought. "-Louisville Courier-JournaL

The Cyclone has come. The Cloak and Suit Market demoralized.
 Temporary dismemberment,-or total destruction staring many concerns in the face.
 Owing to the unreasonable weather, g number of the large Metropolitan Retail Houses find themselves unable to handle the full quantities of Costumes contracted for early in the season.
 One of the most extensive manufactur- CTS who only supplies the finest trade, hav- ing agreed with one of his largest Sixth Avenue Patrons to dispose of the balance e of their contract for what even they would bring, the loss to be sustained eqnally by both parties.
 Our reputation of being Cash Buyers and of facilities for using unlimi- ted { Goods at our prices.
 We were solicited to make Cash Offer for the above lot containg seventeen hun dred Ladies' Fine Woolen and Silk Suits. Being aware of the excelency of style and workmanship for which this manu-
 
 necessary to say we have purchased the en- tire lot at prices that do not more than pay for the labor on them.
 The entire lot will be placed on sale Friday, June 1, at 10a. m. It would be impossible to enumerate the prices in de- tail, suffice to say they commence with Ladies' Tailor Made English Melton Suits, at $3.95 each, actual worth of labor alone on such Suit is $500, the entire lot at correspondingly low prices.
 Just think of it,Suits that retail on Sixth Avenue from $1S.00 to $29. 50 we will sell during this sale from $6.75 to $1O.5O.
 To accommodate the rush we will have six extra Fitting Rooms. It behoves every one with the remotest idea of purchasing any kind of Costume, to call as early as possible, as we propose to close out the entire lot within the next ten days, (and we will do it.)
 If you are disappointed in getting one o1 these Suits it will not be the fault of

Train.
THE RAILROADS.
PLENTY OF COMPETITION.

The excursion business in and out OF
this city is becoming SO important that
the overland systems are all anxious to
participate in it. In addition to the
Offices of the Southern Pacific and the
Santa Fe, the lines running in here,
agencies have been established by the
Union Pacific, the Burlington system,
the Chicago and Rock Island, the Mis-
souri, Pacific, the Vanderbilt lines and
the Pennsylvania system. And in addi-
ton to these it is said that the Chicago
and Alton is making arrangements to
open an Office in this city. Up to few
months ago the representatives OF the
various roads did nothing but at
tend to getting business from this
city over their roads, leaving the excur-
sion traffic to the Phillips, Walters, Sum
set, Cotteral and other such agencies al
ready established here. The custom OF
these excursion agencies was to get up
party for all eastern points and then for
an extra charge of $5 over the second
class fare, tourist cars were provided,
equipped with mattresses, blankets, pill
lows, etc., and carrying colored porter
to attend to the wants of the travellers.
The first departure from this order of
things was made by the Burlington road.
That line inaugurated excursions running
every second week, in which all the pri-
vileges alluded to we're given without the
s. fee. A protest was made regarding this
to the TranscontinentalA Association during
its recent convention at San Francisco,
but it was decided that the company had
q perfect right to run such parties if it
chose. In the meantime the enormous
success achieved by this new venture in
duced the Chicago, Rock Island and
Pacific to embark in a similar way, and
since that time it has been looked upon
as an established thing. The Union Pa
cific made step in the same direction
about two weeks ago, when it announced
that daily tourist. sleeping car service
was at once to 60 in operation over their
line, an extra charge for all the privil-
eyes conceded being but $3.50. During
the past week, however, they is
sued a statement that brings them
in the field of open operation
with the other excursion Offices. On and
after Wednesday, October 10th, and
every Wednesday afterwards, they will
run free excursion parties to all points
east, giving all the accessories of sleeping
arrangements, mattresses, blankets, etc., /,
that the others afford. The fare to Mis-
souri, river points is $35, to st. Louis
$42.50, to st. Paul $45, to Chicago $47 so,
with correspondingly low rates to other
Eastern points. The daily service will
be run as usual.

THE TEREDO.
what Prof. Manly Says About the
Pile.destfOyer.

what Prof. Manly Says About the
Pile.destrOyer.
Regarding the treatment of the piles
for the Southern Pacific mammoth wharf
at San Pedro the following statement
made by Mr.. Henry Manly, an authority
on worms, is interesting:
''The teredo is the terror of southern
waters. 1t grows from eggs, and as it
matches enters the wood, leaving a
minute hole too small to be seen by the
naked eye. Inside the wood the worm
grows, eating its way through and
through the pile, without sign on the
outside of what is going on within. 1t
grows to be two and three feet long, and
larger round than pencil. In fact it's
q regular snake. 1t abounds all over
the world where the water is warm
enough. 1t attacks all kinds of woods
except the palmetto. The only protec-
tion is to soak the pile in creosote, filling
the wood with ten or twenty pounds of
the oil of creosote to the cubic foot. This
costs as much nearly as the pile itself.
Without this protection pile will be
entirely eaten away in six months some
times, and seldoms lasts more than two
years. One protection the South has
adopted, with only partial success, is
the placing of cast-iron covering entire
ly around each bunch of piles"
A good idea of the attacks of the teredo
may be obtained by looking at the piles
supporting the Santa Monica pier, many
of which are eaten away and are as small
as pipe stems.
