Last week at a dinner party given by

exceedingly fond OF field sports, and whose
astonishing success with the breech.loader Is
a matter OF wonder to bis friends, one OF the
guests told the following story:
al was up in Name not long since, and
having my attention called 10 a handsome
building in the suburbs OF the town where

me that 1t was an asylum for liars, and that
the superintendent was an obiging gentle

plan upon which the institution was con-

was attracted by a conversation which arose
between two OF them.

'that there has been good tish season In

the forty. pound trout caught there last

and nearly ruined a Kentucky reel, but

He pulled down exactly forty pounds
'You are Mistaken persisted the other.
Il know you are. because nearly i've years
ago the legislature OF Maine passed law
requiring holes 10 be bored In the upper
kennebec, so that all fish under fifty pounds
should drop through, and for the last four
years At least Il has been impossible for forty
pound fish to remain there
"'rhat's not so,' said the first; 'because

run out
"'Ah,' retorted the second. 'but the same
Legislature passed law that the water

reading.
"When he left the ward superintendent

The Washington Post SAYS That the Gen.
tenni,l to be held at Washington this year Is
TO celebrate with fitting ceremonies the sue
cessiul completion OF hundred years OF
constitutional government.
That seems to be a joke when we recall
the reconstruction measures passed IN con-
tempt OF the Constitution; the freeing OF
the slaves in violation OF the Constitution;
and the ratification OF the thirteenth, four
teenlh, and fifteenth amendments under
compulson instead Of in the manner pro-
vided for by the men who began "constltu-
tonal government" upon this continent
The plea that the South could not otherwise
have been conquered is n confession that it
was not conquered under constitutional
government" We are as glad as the Post
that slavery is abolished, but we are unable
to see that il was done under the Consttu.
ton or " constitutional government"
