CELIBACY A FAILURE.

The Members of the Economic So
ciety to Return to the Institution
of Marriage.
BEAVER, PA, December O. The
mem bers of the Economic Society,
who occupy a settlement near here, are
seriously considering the fe asibility
of returning to the institution of mar
riage. There are now but about thirty
mem bers of the organization left in
the quaint little town of Economy,
and they are all well along in years.
For a long time the rule forbidding
the marriage of members has been
strictly enforced and time has SO re-
duced their number that the questions
of disposlng of many million dollars of
treasure, which the organization has
accumulated, and of perpetuating the
society itself are becoming daily more
important. At the opening OF the
comming year dozen more memb bars
will be admitted to the society. Sew
eral of these are married. About the
same time the proposition to rase the
bans so long placed OH the marriage
rite will be considered. 1t is learned
that a majority of the present men,
bors favor the idea, and unless some
thing occurs to change their minds
the change is expected to be made.
The society lives in the town of Econ
omy. on the banks of the Ohio, and
has become celebrated for the fruga-
lily of it's members, its enormous
wealth, the farms, quaint homes and
good citizens. Jacob Henric, its
leading spirit, is a white-headed pat
riarchal man past so years of age.

THE police wrestle with the cracker

they wrestle with the pepper in the

great personal liberty state and law

the execution of it. Some way 1t has
lost its terrors to evil doors.

SPRINKLING a wooden pavement
day or night is the height of folly.
The streets of all cities paved with
wooden blocks should be swept regu-
larly every day and the sweepings
collected and carted away. If this is
not done the pavement becomes a
hotbed of impurity exhaling under the
sun all manner of noxious vapors and
becoming in time a nuisance to be
abated. Let the present system of
sprinkling the wooden pavements OF
this city con tinue for year or two
and the streets and plazas thus
sprinkled will be veritable stinkpots.
Already strangers sitting at the west
front of Menger hotel remark the
smell arising from the sprinkled
streets. The LIGHT has called atten-
ton TO this matter on two former oc-
casions and now refers it to the board
of health for consideration. The mat
ter of health is entirely independent
of that of safety which is greatly en-
dangered by sprinkling which leaves
the street in slippery condition I'M
safe for horses and dangerous to those
who cross the streets in the vicinity
of moving teams.

ILLINOIS habitual criminal act is a
little tough on the violators of law.
After two convictions the offender is
very likely to 60 up for life on third
conviction. 1t remains TO be seen how
the law will operate in decreasing
crime. 1t is the old way, of punish
ment instead of reformation and will
not end in anything really helpful.
Prevention by reformation not per-
petuaI Imprisonment is the true rem
edy. The criminal instinct is largely
a disease and cure must come through
remedial reformatory measures be-
fore any permanent diminution of
crime results.

THOSE who condemn the War De-
partment for not half-masting it's flag
on account of Jefferson Davis death,
are largely lacking in discretion.
They do not appear capable of under
standing that nations as we'll as indi-
viduals owe themselves something,
and that this government could not
have half-masted its flag to an alien
who was once a citizen and continued
an alien by his own voluntary act,
without sacrificing its own self-re-
spect. Whatever the democracy may
think, the republicans and all think
ing foreigners will rejoice that the
Department of War has not lowered
its colors to the demands of donation
alization. Surely it is enough that
this government has maintained ST.
lence during these days in which such
honor has been done to the represent
alive of disunion, without being re-
quired to take an active part in them.
The governor of Arkansas, in refusing
to participate in this eulogy has
shown great good judgment, and had
democratic journals been equally wise
and refrained from censuring the War
Department for its acts republican,
journals would not have been COM
PEELED to resent such uncalled for GEN.

Have you ever heard of marriage by
surprised 1t sounds American, as If
first cousin to surprise parties" whom
a lot of friends arrive for a dance
totally unexpected, bringing with them
their provisions, music, etc. But it is
that, according to the laws OF the
Roman Catholic church in Spain, if q
couple appear before the altar just as
the priest is giving the benediction
after mass, and claim to consider them
selves married, married they are. OF
course, it is seldom done, except in
cases of opposition against the mar
riage, as the bridal ceremony and the
wedding presents are both lost, and if
the bride would rejoice, the bridegroom
would probably lament. Tho great
thing, TO make the marriage valid, is
to insure it being wholly by surprise.

prenticed to the trade of wool combing. He,
however, preferred curry combing, for, like
all Yorkshircmen, the love of horses was his
strongest characteristic.
So, an opportunity arriving, he quilted the
wool combing business, and, having made
the best of his way to London, he obtained
~congenial occupation in the task of superin-
tending Beevor's horse repository In st. Mar
tins lane, not far from the Seven Dials.
While In Beevor's service Richard Tattersall
had the good fortune to secure the kindly in
terest of the Duke of Kingston, and so sue
cessful was he in his efforts TO impress the
luke fayorably that eventually he left Bee
vor's to enter his grace's service, undertaking
entire charge of his racing stud.
In this position he remained until he began
business for himself as an auctioneer. BY
combining his sale entirely to horses and by
judiciously utilizing his influence with the
Duke of Kingston, no in a short time &c
quired a very extensive connection. BE was
AZ years of age when he established what
came to be known as "Tattersall's" upon a
plot of ground at Hyde Park Corner, which
he obtained on a ninety-nine years lease from
the Grosvenor family.
A few years later he purchased the cele-
brated race horse Highflyer from Lord Bo-
lingbroke for 500 guineas, and this proved to
be tho most remunerative speculation he ever
hihho- hhdocit ou Luz, - nc WIS Iafull-
iarly called, often attributed to this equine
wonder his own after success In life.
Richard Tattersan also became a news
paper proprietor of considerable prominence,
and when he found himself growing old he
retired to his country seat and became a
typical English country gentleman. He was
n years old at his death. His reputation was
unblemished.
'Tattersall'sn underwent no change init
1865, when the lease of the old premises ex-
pired. Messrs Edmund and Richard latter
sail, who then represented the family, tried
hard to obtain a renewal, but the land WINS
wanted for another purpose and had long be
fore been bespoken.
They therefore purchased their present
site, which is not far from the old one, where
they erected their present handsome and
commodious premises, which are capable OF
stabling several hundred horses and where
take place the principal sales of racing and
blood stock in the United Kingdom. In the
subscription rooms adjoining the sale ring
are regulated the chief races of the year, and
all betting on horses takes its cue from the
prices given, offered and taken at ''Tatter-

Pooling the Judge.

The Judges blood is not very thin,
but through force of habit he likes the
temperature in his room to be nearly
so dogs. His porter is sometimes late,
and if the room is not up to the tenn
p~erature where it should be a elbow
ing up results. Recently, on a chilly
morning, the porter oversight. He
hurried to the office, arriving but a
few minutes in advance of the punctual
judge. The temperature was under 30
dogs. The porter turned the steam on,
but it was impossible to get the re-
quired heat before the judge would
arrive. So the porter pressed his
thumb against the bulb at the bottom
of the thermometer. He was none too
soon, for the mercury had no sooner
reached q sufficient point than the
judges key was in the lock. The
porter busted away as the judge enter
ed. The judge, as is his invariable
custom, went directly to the Their
mometer, and, seeming satisfied that
the temperature was sufficient, sat
down at his desk with q satisfied air
and went to work. ALBANY Journal.

it was some time before we acquired -
knRck of letting them turn to go down after
the rise before striking. Later on. when in
camp on Kanuskn lake, these fish afforded us
superb fly fishing, and ran In weight from
one TO three pounds An these lakes were ex-
ceedingiy clear, and though practically yhese
trout were never Ashed for before, they were
as shy as In any of our overfished waters of
the east
In fact it was almost impossible to get
within casting distance during the daytime.
We could sec them rising all over the lake,
but ut the first motion of the rod they would
disappear within a circle of 100 feet But
when the sun was sinking behind the dark
purple mountain they seemed to become more
bold, and then we had royal sport 1t was
not unusual 10 have one of these big trout
actually move my canvas canoe in its frantic
efforts to escape from tho fly; my little eight
section bamboo rod would be dragged under
wnter to the ferule of the middle Joint by
their sudden rush before the reel could give
sufficient line, then would follow the delight
full wiz Of the click, and the trout would run
of with thirty or forty feet of line before 1
dared to turn him, ending with two or three
frantic leaps
l found the fluttering fly worked to great
advantage in these waters, and most of the
Idaho and Washington anglers prefer them
to the old style.
AS TO the question whether fishing from a
boat or canoe is pleasanter than wading n
stream / cannot decide; each style has its
champions. Many excellent anglers fail TO
see any fun In getting wet and tired out
wading a mountain brook and leaving nu-
merous leaders and flies in the branches over
head, while others cannot sec sport In being
cramped up in n canoe or boat all day. Per-
sonally / nm happy to DO able to say that l EN-
JOY both thoroughly. There is n great charm
to me in wnding a beautiful, clear running
river, with its varied pools, rapids and still
waters.
And how pleasant, as one turns the corner
of a stream, to find a big black pool under a
waterfall with, perhaps, two or three big
fellows Jumping and feeding at the edge of
the white foam. And then toward evening,
when tho shadows grow long and cool, and
the wood robin pipes up its flute like song,
the angler fills n fresh pipe. puts on a new
lender with a ginger palmer and coachman
attached, and wnding into n favorite pool
proceeds to cast his files light and true, con-
tent with himself and all mankind. No WON
der that so many Of our greatest men have
found rest and recreation in this royal sport.

In the Reichstag.
A contributor TO "Lulustrationn has
in a series Of articles given an interest
ing account of the interior of the
German parliament. Speaking of its
general appearance, he says: In a
moderately sized room are gathered
specimens of all the various races of
great Germany; the Bavarians and the
monumental Rhinelanders with boards
a la Lohengrin; the pure bred Prus-
slams, squat and SNUG like Richter,
who keep by themselves, and pass
without looking either to right or to
left; the gentleman from Silesia, big
and bony, with blazing red beard and
the air of an aldermanic captain of
militia, or of an English yeoman, foe
OF foxes, and officer of volunteers.
There is no lack of uniforms in the
group, and no lack of ~overcoats folded

geols, bureaucratic and PROFESSIONAL.

The personal portraits are all ex-
ceedingly good, though there is moth
ing new said about Prince Bismarck

ad nauseam. But the following de-
scription of Herr Windthorst is clever
and life like: The figure of a gnome,
the long neck of a child, great blue
spectacles which shelter the remains
of used up eyes, a large mouth with a
satirical twist. Such is Herr Windt-
horst, the pearl of his party, the most
redoubtable parliamentary tactician,
the only adversary PSince Bismarck
has been unable TO overcome, and
with whom he has often had to treat
on equal terms. He is not a thunder
bolt of eloquence. From his toothless

would not be able to travel past the

speaks, were it not that the Unsuitable
curiosity which this r~esourceful spirit
provokes establishes in the assembly n
perfect silence as soon as he arises.
The skill and irony which at each
step shine in his oratory make every
one forget that this thick set little
man, with his wooden voice and mo-
notonous gesture, is the very opposite
of an orator. 1t is his mind which has
held together for eighteen years with

1t was only a few years ago that a
green country boy applied to Division
Superintendent Hitchcock, of the
Galesburg division of the Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy railroad, for
work. Mr.. Hitchcock could set him
at nothing but breaking ON a freight
train, and disliked to give such work
to him because of the lads youthful
appearance and the dangers besetting
that vocation. The boy, however,
pleaded until he secured the employ
ment. On one of his first trips, il not
indeed the very first, it CHANGED that
his train met another freight train at
a station where the side track was not
long enough to accommodate either.
The conductors were discussing the
question which train should back up
to a point where they could pass,
when the green boy ventured to sug-
gest that neither should back up; that
they could pass by means of the short
side track if they worked it right. This
occasioned a good deal of laughter on
the part of the older and more ex-
perienced trainmen, but the boy in
sisted he could work the trains by each
other.
"Well, how would you go about

ident that the lad would soon be up q
stump. The boy took up u stick and
traced in the sand a diagram of how
he would do il.
"By thunder" or worse, said the
conductor, 81 believe that will do it."
They tried it and it did do it. To-
day every trainman in America prob
ably knows how to saw by" two long
trains on a short side track, but until
thatinexperienced country boy worked
it out of his noddle the practice on the
old 80" road had been for trains
either to avoid meeting at such points
or, when they CHANGED to meet, for
one of them to run back to a longer
side track.

Users of ice must read up on the re-
cen Investigations of Kedzie, Pengree
and Prudden, showing that ice taken
from polluted streams is not purified
by freezing. Kedzie tells us that if
taken from streams containing rotting
vegetable matter or sawdust it will
produce diarrheas. In 1875, at Rye
Beach, an epidemic broke out in a
large hotel, and was traced at last to
ice taken froman adjacent pond. The
water of this pond in summer was foul
and sinking with p%utrescent matter.
