sENATE-There was a great difference between
the vote on the Hi1son bill to divorce the
agricultural college rom the state university,
taken IN the senate on the question of final
passage yesterday, and the vote taken in
committee of the whole two or three days
ago, whereby the measure was recommended
to pass When the final vote was taken
eleven senators voted in favor of the meas
ure, and Twenty-Five against it.
When Mr.. Days bill amending the Iibellaw
came back from the house, the house amend
ments were adopted. The senate failed, how
ever, to concur in the passage of the bill as
amended, the vote standing 81 ayes to 8
noes The bill was declared lost, for the
reason that not q majority of the entire SEN
ate votedin the affirmative; but Mr.. Day
bodied up with notice of reconsideration
and the measure has yet chance of life
HoUSE-The house was Feritable cave of
the winds yesterday morning.. 1t was IN
session two hours and fifty minutes. and
when the noon recess was taken it required
very close Investigation to find out in what
respect the business of the session had been
IN the least furthered.
The friends of meat inspection tried to go
into. committee of the whole yesterday, but
Judge Fleming demanded the ayes and noes,
and the roll call found sc in favor of the mo-
ton and % against. So the motion was
lost.

THE BARLEY CROP.
A Limited Product and an Advance
ing Market.

A Limited Product and an Advance
ing Market.
From the reports which come in from
the farmers of the county, especially
those of the southern part, it appears
that the yield of barley will not be up to
the customary standard, either in guam
tity or quality. Newmark & Edwards,
brokers, who make specially of barley
and wheat, estimate the yield for the
county for the season at not more than
seventy per cent. of full crop. AS to
how the aggregate product will compare
with that of last season, it is not possible
to estimate, as there has been consider
able increase in the number of acres
under cultivation, but exact figures are
not obtainable. The farmers say that
the several days of hard rain which
came late in the season, after the stalks
had matured their growth, followed by
an immediate hot spell, had a
very injurious effect upon the ripen-
ing grain. In the northern part
of the country around San Fer ando and
in the Antelope valley, where there is
very little barley grown in proportion to
the amount of wheat, the crop is nearly
full and the grain is of satisfactory quail
ity. The most serious falling off is in
the southern part of the county. Besides
the fact that tract of land which last
year would yield thousand sacks now
gives out only about 700 from the
thresher, it must be added that the
grains are little under weight, and are
dark in color.
The effect of the alleged shortage is
already showing itself in the advance of
the price of the cereal at San Francisco.
1t has within short space of time ad-
vanced over seven cents, and still exhib.
its tendency to 60 upward. Harvest.
ing has only just begun, and it is not
impossible that the case should prove on
investigation to be better than repre-
sented,

Here is an interesting summary of Har-
rison's cabinet: Mr.. Window is the Oldest
member of the cabinet being 62, while Mr..
Miller Is the youngest, being only As. OF
the others Tracy is 80, Blame and Rusk are
80, Proctor and Noble are 5S, and Wana
maker is b2. The average age of the cabi-
net is 81, while President Harrison himself
will not be SO until next August. Ohio car
ries off the prize, as usual, in the point Of
nativity, Window, Noble and Rusk having
been born in that State, as well as the
President himself. Pennsylvania claims
Blaine and Wanamaker as her sons, while
New York gave birth to Tracy and Miller,
and Proctor first saw the light in Vermont
Five of the eight have left the States OF
their birth, only Proctor, Tracy and Wana-
maker being residents of the States in
which they were born. Only four of the
eight were in the army during the war
Proctor, Tracy, Noble and RIsh-and none
of these attained a higher actual grade
than colonel, although the three last named
were bIeyeted brigadier general for gallant
and meritorious services in the field. Blaine
and Window have held seats in both
Houses of Congress, while Rusk has been q
member of the lower House, Blaine and
Window also held the same portfolio in the
Garfield administration. Proctor anC
Rusk have been Governors of their States
Tracy has been on the bench, ard ha.
served as United States District Attorney
while Noble has held the last-named office
leaYlng Wanamaker and Miller the only
two who now hold Office for the first time
in their lives. -Four of the eight-Windom
Tracy, Noble and Mlller-are lawyers, bu
only the three last-named have acquired
distinction in their profession. Proctor be
gan the study of law in his youth. but wa
diverted from it by the war, and then de
voted himself exclusively to business
Blaine is the only one on the list who ha
ever been a working newspaper editor.

THERE is TOO GREAT HASTE IN OCCUPY
ing house after its completion. Says
the Scientific American. In many place:
there is such demand for dwelling, and
often business apartments, that, as soon as
finished, they are occupied. This is es-
pecially true of small dwellings. There is
more danger in this than is supposed
There is no health in dampness and mould
under any circumstances, and in Lying
apartments, where the tendency is toward
poor ventilation, the dampNess of newly
finished houses contributes largely to ill
health. In the town of Basle, Switzerland
q regulation has been adopted which pre-
vents newly built houses from being oc
cupied until four months after completion
Under many circumstances, SO long time
as above specified is not necessary, but it il
often wellto err on the side of salty. The
size of the house, its location, surroundings
the material used, and the state of the
weather enter into the consideration of the
time necessary in which building should
become sufficiently dry for occupancy.

With the death Of Captain John Ericsson
closes the career of one intellectual giants
Of the nineteenth century. 1t is not my
purpose to refer to his great inventions of
the Monitor or the Propeller and the caloric
engine which has reyolutionized the world,
but to a circumstance which embittered the
last years of his life, and almost closed his
association with his fellow-man. For near
" twenty years Captain Ericsson has been
almost hermit, denying himself to all but
a small circle of immediate friends. The
cause of this is not generally known, but II
occurred in this way. Nearly twenty years
ago Captain Ericsson invented an engine
for ocean steamers which was calculated
to create even greater revolution in ocean
carriage than his propeller Capital did
not come forward readily to help him, for
he was high spirited, dlffident man who
could not beg for favors. In the under
taking he invested all of his private for.
tune, so confident was he of success. After
years of trial and disappointment at last
the vessel was ready for sea. Everything
was prepared for her first trial trip She
lay at anchor in the North River when a
vio,ent storm arose. Some of the lower
side ports had been left open and the vessel
careened by the wind, filled and sunk.
For this great calamity there was scarcely
a word of sympath,, on the contrary thou
sands laughed and seemed to rejoice at his
misfortune. 1t nearly broke his heart and
ruined him financially. He never recovered
from the shock till they laid him in his
grave last week.

A special despatch of the 10Th inst, from
New YoIk, says: President b. G.. Clark, of
the Thomas Iron Company, does not think
the outlook for iron is as favorable as it was
month ago. At that time he thought
bottom had been reached and that they
would have a better demand and higher
prices. He said:
'It looks now as if the production of pig
iron would have to fall OFF or prizes &c
lower The failure of the Reading Iron
" orks has had bad effect on the trade,
and all kinds of manufactured irons are at
a very low price and the demand is slack
Notwithstanding this. production increased
in February. Less iron must be made"

"Steel rails are looking up a little. The
