Nor were the personal tastes of
the ladies of the harem ignored.
The Hindoo wives of Jehangir
dwelt in court decorated in the
Hindoo style. Thus did the faith
full wife fare. She had no cares,
she lived in a superb palace, and
everything which could add to
her pleasure was supplied by her
lord. But for the unfaithful wife
there was quicker, more certain,
and more effectual punishment
than any which could be inflicted
by the censure of public opinion or
by the slow process Of a divorce
court. A low doorway and a few
steps, leading down the Garden of
Roses, give admission to a long un-
derground passage, by when the
offender was conducted to a small,
round chamber in the depths of the
fortress. On the roof was the fatal
beam, and through a hole in the
floor her body was cast into the
Jumna.

District Politics.

The Chicago Times of recent issue
printed dispatch from Carthage, Hans
cock county. supposing to reflect the
political sentiment in the lower end OF
the district. 1t said:
1t may be a trifie early to forecast pos
sibilltes in this. the Eleventh congress-
ional district. II is probable that the re-
publicans will nominate Judge Gest for
congress. Mr.. Gest has not made such
satisfactory use of himself as a congress-
man as was possibly expected of him.
The old soldiers were confident that he
would place them in command of the
postoff1ces. This Gest failed to do, ex-
cept in isolated cases. His main app
pointments in this regard have been ac-
tive young republicans whose capacity
and desire for attending state and ma.
tional meetings of republican clubs is
unlimited. Now the old soldiers do not
like this at all. Even old democratic Bill
Niece. of Macomb did more for the sold
Ter boys in six months of Office than Gest
has accomplished in two years
or more. But Judge Gest will
receive the nomination. 1t is not
now thought that Senator o. F. Berry of
this city. representing the Twenty-fourth
district. will be candidate. Berry has a
host of democratic friends in Hancock
county who are praying that if the blight
of another republican congressman is TO
fall upon the Eleventh district it will be
Berry. This makes the Marsh faction of
the republican party grind their teeth
They hate Berry because he helped elect
Bill Niece In 1882; they hate him be.
cause he is in the state senate in spite of
them, and they hate him because he
could easily secure the republican con-
gressional nomination if he wanted to run
this year. The Marsh McCloughry fight
of 1882 was bitter one. 1t has never
been fully settled, even though the fac
tons have agreed upon some outside man
for congress. Animosities were engen>
dered in that campaign that will never be
healed.
The democrats of Hancock county
the county most looked to of all in the
Eleventh district-sre solid for Gen. John
NJ. Palmer for United States senator,
Grover Cleveland for president. and Bill
Niece, of MacOmb, for congress, If he'll
run. DelOs p. Phelps, of Monmouth, has
many warm admirers who would like to
see him make another race for congress.
Ben t. Cable, of Rock Island, has been
mentioned. T. J. Scofield, prominent
young attorney Of Carthage, who so ably
stumped the district as state elector, would
stand a good show of nomination. How
ever, the popular democratic idea is
that Neece is the Moses.
The Keithsburg Neins adds that "of
all the probable candidates named, Mr..
Ben T. Gable, of Rock Island, would
perhaps make the best race, and would
If elected, represent the district in an able
manner. Mr.. Cable is an energetic.
young worker, honest and popular
throughout the district, and would be
credit to the old Eleventh. But time
will demonstrate who will be the ac-
cepted man."

Day at the White House.
WASHINGTON CITY, April S.-The pro-
ceedings of the senate yesterday were en-
livened by a debate on the Montana senator
ship contest. Vance took the floor in be-
half of the Democrats, and in the course OF
his speech told story of parson who was
once schooling country pumpkin to fit him
to bA godfather at a christening. The
parson asked him what was the outw ard
and visible sign of baptism. The pumpkin
after scratching his head for while ans
wered with an air of triumph, "Why, the
baby, to he sure" "And so (said Vancs]
the outward and visible sign of the back
sliding of the Republican party will be the
Montana twins-not baby, but couple of
them" (Laughterl
Another Illustration.
He also illustrated Hoar's position that
while none of the obj ections to counting the
votes of Precinct "a in Silver Bow county
was sufficient of itself to Justify the rejec-
ton of the votes, all of them together did
constitute sufficient grounds for doing SOY by
the anecdote of an old justice of the peace
before whom a case was tried, in which
eleven distinct pleas in bar were entered
The justice took them up one by one and de-
cided as to each of them, that it was not
worth one cent; but that taking all of them
together, they made good case for the de-
PENDANT.
Vance declared that he had never heard q
title to a seat in the senate based on such
slender, technical, trifing grounds He had
never known the public will of commu-
nifty to be thwarted and tramplei under
foot on such fiimsy pretexts.
Spooner's Plea for the Republicans. -,
Spooner made an argument in favor of
the majority report that the Republican
claimants are entitled TO the seats A SEN
ator he said, co1ld, of course, only be elect
ed by state Legislature; and, therefore, in
order to seat man in the senate he must
have been chosen by a legislature organized
within the meaning of the constitution But
1t was not necessary, in his opinion, TO go
beyoni what might be called prima facie
evidence, and that prima facie evidence was
found in this case, in the certificate of the
BOARD or canvassers, consisting OF the chief
Justice, the governor, and the secretary of
the territory.
The Noted Precinct 81.
He then recited the facts and circumstances
connected with the canvassing of the votes,
and with the organization of the two houses
which elected the two Republican claimants,
and insisted that in the exercise OF conceded
jurisdiction it was the right and duty of the
canvassers to reject the vote of precinct "a
as false and fraudulent Without finishing
his argument, Spooner yielded for motion
to proceed to executive business.

LONDON, April s.-The statistics sub

ish emigration show that since Jan l emil
grafton to America has decreased 5000 be-
low that for the corresponding period of
1889. This falling off, it is represent
ed, is due to tho fact that wages
have increased at home until they are quite
as high, and in some cases higher, than the
rates paid for similar employment in Amer
lea, while the opportunities for obtaining
work here are equally as good These evil
