THE prophetic utterance of Pro-
fessor Bracket, of Princeton college,
in his address to the Electrical club,
of New York, last fall: "Notwithstand-
ing the fact that in New York it is
the law that all persons convicted of
offenses that are punishable by death
are hereafter to be executed by cleo
tricity, my belief is that never a single
man will die, except by accident, by
that method" seems likely to be veri-
fed. All the electricians Of New York
are now asking to have the new exc
cution law declared unconstitutional.
The legality of the sentence passed
upon the murderer William Kemmler,
who was to have been the first exc
cuted by electricity, has been disputed
on the ground that the punishment is
cruel Evidence will be taken before
a referee, and persons interested in
electricity are now eagerly awaiting
the result of the case and the evidence
taken.

The attention of our Democratic
brethren who believe in swivel service
reform is gently directed to the case
of John SWEET He is the father of
the common school system of Cali
fornia: he is a foremost educator of
national renown: books of which he
is the author are translated into for
eign tongues because of their excel
lency. He is one of San Francisco's
honOred citizens, and a great edu-
Gator. The Democratic board of edu-
cation has given him the grand
bounce, cut off his head, and given
his position to lady, the wife of a
gentleman to whom the Dem
ocratic board of education is
under obligations for valuable
political services rendered. Swett's
scalp hangs at Boss Buckley's girdle.
In the meantime San Francisco Dem
Ocrats beat their breasts and foam at
the mouth in fuming fury over Presi-
dent Harrison's federal appointments.
Is it right, oh men and brethren, to
bring politics into schools: to dis
charge tried and faithful men to make
room for political favorites? Or is
snivel service reform something for
Democrats to solely preach and Re
publicans to solely practice?

Many methods of capturing herring,
including the smaller herring or sar-
dimes, have been followed. The old In.
dian way, still practicsd by many small
fishermen, is to ''torch" for them Mt
night. a boat with an iron "dragon"
or fire holder forward, or bed of clay.
on which Il fire can be built in the bow.
is used. A fire is made out of some ex-
cccdingly cpmbustiblc wood that makes
bright glare. Tho instincts of the fish
lead them to rise to the surface when
the light app ;ars. In the day, attracted
by the light the herring move toward
The sun. AT night they rise TO the
light of the fires and Il man with hand
net in the bow Of the boat dips them
from the wafer. Tho Indians, it is
thought. discovered this habit Of her
ring by seeing them SO TO tho surface
and swim to the beach when camp fires
hal been lighted on the shores.
Herring are caught in vast numbers
by means OF brush wcirs. These wcirs
arc constructed AT the end of point of
land or in channel in regions where
tides rise high. Poles are sunk in the
water and the spaces b.twcen them
woven with brush like thick hclrc.
The weir when constructed forms IL
pond, into which the fish, following the
sun or feeling near the surface, arc
ariited by the current at high tide
When the tide goes down the wcirs.
which mt high water arc almost out of
sight, are left almost dry and myri,ds
of fish arc taken from them.

The German En,pcror,s brother:

Prince Henry of Prussia, the Kaiscr's
brother, is the idol of the German naval
service. He is tho "Unscr Heinrich"
Of the navy, ju't as his imperial father
was the 'Unscr Fritz of the army, and
countless stories are told to illustrate
his good nature, his devotion to his
profession, and his physical proves.
Once, when the olga, OF which he was
watchlccping lieutenant, was lying
i'll the Gulf of K;cl, the order was
given through him for all hands to
battle. The weather was chilly, and an
officer remarked to tho Prince that the
water must be far too cold to be pleas
ant. lie sugge'tcd, therefore, that the
order should be annullcl. Without n
word, Prince Henry, who wa, on the
bridge, sprang thence into the sea,
swan to the jacobs ladder astcrn,
climbed on board again, and mounting,
dripping to the bridge, said to tho Off
Ger, "Do you say so now7" There was
no reply, and tho Prince, instead of go
ing below to change, remained on tho
bridge in his wet clothes until his watch
was relieved. Another story illustrates
the Princes activity. One day at Will
hcmshaven he put thaler between his
teeth and dashed up the rigging of hi:
ship, crying, "lIo who catches mo shall
have the thaler." Although he was
pursued by the whole of tho ships CON-
pany not on duty, he was not caught
and at last, swinging himself by rope
to the deck, ho turnod to the nearest O,
his pursuers and said laughingly: "If
you are as thirsty as I am you mr.
want it, so here's your money"

architecture should be maoniiied ten

sweet gardens and extensive grounds
behind them, as lovely as the greene, st

they possessed the Congressional library

National literary associa tions Of GOO
years and the historical associations of
