He SEIZED HIS WIG.

a Row That Took Pinco In Congress De.
fors the War.
The blo0dlcss and bruiseloss fist-flght
between congressman Wilson Of Wash
ington and Bcckwith of New JERSEY
has started flow of "reminiscences Of
other ludicrouS spats on the floor of the
House, says Washington correspond
emit Of tho st. Louis Globe Democrat.
Ono OF the best stories Is told by Colonel
linton, who was a newspaper corre-
spondent here before the war. Some
phase OF the slavery question was up in
the House. Owen Lovojoy, Of Illinois,
had been talking, and, as usual, he had
aggravated the Southerners. Barks-
dale, Of Mississippi, replied. Hot words
passed. This was not the Darltsdale of
recent service in the House, but Gen.
oral Barksdule, who was killed during
tho war. AS the interchange Of in
vectives grow moro and moro personal it
seemed that an encounter was unavoida-
bio. Roger A. Pryor, then young
Congressman from Virginia, raised
tho lid of his desk and slipped out o
pistol. Several others got ready. Just
as tho crisis was at hand giant OF q
man from Wisconsin named Potter sud-
dcnly reached over from tho Re-
ublican side of the House and
mado grub for Barksdate.i The
Mississippian had long hair. which
he always wore carefully brushed. TO
TO tho astonlshmonto Of the whole House
tho luxuriant hair proved to DO a wiz.
1t came off, of course. Potter stood
there dumiounded, holding tho mag
niflcent covering aloft and looking first
at the hair and then at the bald head be-
meath. The House held its breath for q
moment and then roar after roar OF
laughter drowned out all feeling OF re-
sentiment. Pryor raised the lid ot;his
desk, put back his pistol, and laughed.
Lovejoy sat down convulsed. Potter
awkwardly restored tho wig, and then
both no and Barksdale smiled. There
was no moro thoaght Of fighting over
slavery that day.

re SURPRISED ELIZA
ARd After Dofns It He Was Treated 60
Little Surprise Him>eIE

AttIO Surprise HimSeIk
John Roberts, OF North East, is
farmer well enough to do, but he had
always boon eccontric about his clothes,
writes Salamanca correspondent Of tho
Now York Sun. Until week or so ago
he had not boon known to buy new
suit of clothes for years. The ones he
wore had been so often patched and re-
patched that no bit OF the original warp
and wool was visible. This personal
slovenliness on tho part Of her husband
was q source of constant annoyance to
Mrs. Roberts, who is a woman of ex-
ceptional noatness. She long ago bo-
came so ashamed of his appearance that
she would no longer accompany him to
town to do her trading. This singular
characteristic of the farmer was not
owing to penuriousncss, for he is liber-
NJ man in all his dealings.
a fow days ago he went to town to do
littlo trading, and, to the utt aston
ishment Of the town, hepurchased a new
suit of clothes for himself. His new
clothes were done up in a package, and
he placed the package on tho wagon
seat beside him whom he started home
that night. 1t was q dark night Far
mer Roberts had got half way home
whom q brilliant idea struck him. He
stopped his horse on bridge whore the
road crosses the East branch.
I'LL do it, by gumr' he sid. "I'n co
1t and surprise Elizar'
Thoreupon tho farmer rose up in his
wagon and began to take off the patched
and repatched clothes he had worn SO
long. AS he removed garment he
tossed it into the creek until he had
tossed them oil in, and had nothing on
but his shirt. ....
'Great apple sass!" he exclaimed.
but won't Eliza be su'prisedl'
Then Farmer Roberts reached for the
package that had his new clothes in. 1t
wasn't on tho seat. Farmer Roberts got
dwon and reached under tho seat. Tho
package wasn't there. Thon he felt all
over tho bottom of tho wagon. The
package wasn't any where on the bot
tom. Farmer Roberts rose up in tho
wagon and looked back along the pitch
dark road.
Then he climbed back in his seat, and
away the horses went for home. The
night was chilly, and there was three
miles to 60. When Farmer Roberts
reached homo and climbed out of his
wagon he paused. ...'
The hull idee didn't work." said he
"but I'll bot nine dollars that surprise
Eliza!"
That he did no one doubts. but when
he got up in the morning and went out
to tho barn clad in tho hired mans
overnlls, and saw his package of now
clothes hanging by its string on the
brake handle at the side Of the wagon,
he,was little surprised himself.

A Difference.

The people voted on the new Con-
stitution question in 1876, and the
vote was duly canvassed by the Su-
preme Court. The question suggests
itself to the minds OF tho public by
what@authority they proceeded. II
the Court has no authority in 1890,
how did they fad authority in 1867
We had az sble men Oh the Bench
then as we have now. 1t our memory
serves us correctly, the Court was
composed of Judges Beatty, Whitman
and Hawley. More honorable or
brighter men never sat on the Bench
in any State than the gentlemen
named.--[Reno Gazette.
The difference is perhaps found in
the fact that in 1876 the vote was
clearly against the measure, while 10
1899 there is a strong probability that
the question was carried by major
ity OF the votes cast. The Nevada
"divinity that shapes our ends" is
opposed to Convention.
If the members Of the Supreme
Court are certain that they have no
authority to canvass the vote, and
that it would be illegal for them to do
So, it is clearly theirstluty to refuse to
do it; bat it is rather strange that
there is not soma means t,i tetermin-

MOLDERS EXCURSION.
NOn-UniOn Men Given Trip
Around the Bay.

The non-union molders at work in the
Risdon, Fulton, City and Union Iron Works
were treated to an excursion around the
bay yesterday by their employers. Three
tugs were engaged. the Robarth, Active and
Wizard. The latter left the wharf at the
Potrero at 10 o'clock in the morning with
about fifteen employees of the iron-wOrks
aboard. The Robarth carried about the
same number OF men from the City works
at North Beach, and there we're thirty or
forty men from the RisdGn and Fulton Iron
Works on board the Active. Some Of the
men had their families with them.
After cruise around the bay the parties
were landed at Hospital Cove, Angel
Island. and fishing was INDUCED in.
Messrs. Moore and Kennedy of the Risdon
works, and Mr.. Hendy of the city were on
board. Everything passed of pleasantly.
Captain Callundan and a squad OF SPECIAL
policemen were present at the starting and
landing OF the parties, but no union men
appeared upon the scene.
The strikers pickets at the various foun-
dries reported the fact OF the excursions at
the Second-street headquarters, but very
little notice was taken OF it.
The twelfth week of the strike has now
begun and matters remain the same as at
the beginning, with no apparent signs of
weakening on either side. Outside of the
excursion there was no incident in counec-
ton with the strike yesterday.
The contingent OF twenty molderS report
ed 10 be on their way out here from the
East to so to work in the foundries has not
yet arrived, although reports had been cir
culated that they would arrive during the
week just ended.
President Valentine reported yesterday
that additional donations were being re-
ceIyed daily by Treasurer Gilleran from
labor unions in various parts Of the State
and at the East.

THE NATIONALISTS.

A New and Improved System of Ballot
ing Proposed by DIR. Hunt.
The Second Nationalist Club held meet
ing last evening at 9O9h Market street.
r. c. MaeIvor presided. John Gore de-
lvered an address on How Nationalist
Propose to Get Possession of Transporta-
tion aud Telegraph" Addresses were also
made by Stephen Maybell and Joseph Har-
riman. Between the addresses Mrs. Whit
tier sang and Mr.. Smith delivered recita-
ton.
At the conclusion of the exercises the
Chairman introduced DR.. r. ii. II. Hunt,
who has invented and copyrighted new
system of voting. The system was tested
and approved 1t is supposed to be an i'm
proyement on the Australian ballot system.
An outline of the system is that citizens
form themselves into groups. Each MEM
Der of the group formulates some plan by
which the interests of the community he
lives in can be advanced. His plan is
placed in the form of resolution, ana the
members of the group, after studying the
resolution, vote on it by means of printed
ballots.

STORY OF A SKULL.
Singular Recovery of Child
From a Fall.

Arthur McCracken, the little boy of
years Of age, who fell from the balcony of his
parents house a month ago, distance Of
thirty feet, is now able to run about the
streets with his companions as well as ever
he was. The child's skull was so badly
fractured that the doctors in the Receiving
Hospital did not believe that he could live
longer than day or two at most Indeed,
no hope was entertained by either the sur
geOns or the lads friends of his recovery,
and in the published accounts OF his acct
dent it was stated that he would die before
twenty-fOur hours should have passed.
The fracture extended clear across the
skull, from a short distance behind one ear
to a corresponding point on the opposite
side severing the shell into two distinct
portions The back part could be moved
about freely, as if on pivot.
Police Surgeon Bunker trepanned the
bone and left the little fellows head
swathed in bandages, thinking that what
had been done was only in accordance with
the dictates of surgical science, but hope
less otherwise. He allowed Arthur's
