The hearing on Mr.. Saxton's Ballot-Reform

its friends and its enemies. Mr. Saxton made
the important announcement that the bill
would be amended so that the voter would
cross out all the names on the ballot except
those OF the men whom he wished to vote for

Senator Saxtons resolution, directing the
State Controller to make up statement of the
canal expenditures for the last ten years, will
be the means of giving the Legislature impor-
tant information for their guidance hereafter.
This period covers the administrations of two

ofiice-a man in whom the people of the State
are far from having entire confdence-it is
prudent for the Legislature to devote special
attention TO the canal appropriations.

Nearly Killed by e Savage Roar.

Mr.. Sanford Kurdish, of Webster, is the
owner Of 2-year-old boar which has grown
to enormous size and has always been noted
for his savage propensities. His tushes are
said to be two and one-half inches in length.
Last Thursday Mr. Furbish attempted to
drive him home from one of his neighbor's.
But the boar declined to be driven, and
showed fight. Pitchforks were brought into
requisition to overcome his obstinacy, and be
was got nearly to his quarters under the barn
before he did any damage.
In crossing a miry place in the road he
made an attack on his owner, and threw him
four or five feet into the air and against q
fence.
This so disabled Mr.. Furnish that he fell on
the ground, and the enraged animal had it
all his own way until help came and got Mr..
Furnish out of his way and into an OK cart
near by.
The boar then mounted the cart and was
determined to make an end of his work in
Eutilating the poor man, and it was with
difficulty that he could be kept out of the
cart. A brother of Mr. Furnish then got a
basket of apples and succeeded in tolling him
away and into his pen, where he was Sc
cured.
DR.. Sleeper was summoned to attend the
injured man, and found one rib broken and
a wound large enough to admit finger be-
tween two ribs, extending clear into the
lung.
This made it impossible for him to breathe
through one lung on account Of air entering
through the wound. His condition is con-
sidered critical-Lewiston Journal.

A marriage celebration In Algeria is an in
terestlng relic of ancient customs The bride
groom goes to bring the bride and the guest,
assembled outside the house will wait for his
coming. Soon the sound of pipes is heard
coming from the summit of some neighborins
hid, and the marriage procession approaches
the bridegrooms house. The pipers always
come first in procession, then the bride, muf.
fled up IL a veil, riding mule led by her
lover. Then comes a bevy of gorgeously
dressed dannsels, sparkling with silver orna-
ments, after which the friends of the brids
follow. The procession stops in front of the
bridegroom's house, and the girls friends Inns
both sides of the pathway The pipers march
of on one side, while the bridegroom lifts the
girl from the mule and holds her in his arms.
The girls friends thereupon throw earth at
the bridegroom, when he hurries forward
end carries her over the threshold of his
house. Those about the door beat him with
olive branches, amid much laughter.
In the evenings, on such occasions, the
pipers and drummers are called in, and the
women dance, TWO at time, facing each
other nor does a couple desiSt until. painting
and exhausted, they step aside to make room
for another. The dance has great energy Of
movement, though the steps are small and
changes of position slight, the dancers only
circhng round occasionally. But they swing
their bodies about with an astonishing ener-
~ and suppleness. AS leaves hatter before
the gale, 50 do they vibrate TO the music ;
they shake; they shiver and trelrble: they
extend quiverfug arms, wave wells, and their
minds seem lost in the abandon and frenzy Of
the dance, while the other women, looking on.

and down the winding mountain roads, such
as those between San Jose and Carrillo, or
Alajuela and Esparta. The carreteros them
selves seldom ride. They trudge along con-
tentedly beside the oxen, mile after mile,
resting when the animals rest and resuming
the march ahead of them. They carry each
long, sharp pointed pole. With this pole,
which is both whip and reins, they have the
most perfect control of the team. If they
want greater speed they prod the animals
from in front-in a way that to an uninitiated
person would seem likely to make them turn
and run in the opposite direction.
In turning a corner the carretero walks
before them with his pole resting on the
yoke. They follow as if it were a magnet.
To stop them a word only is necessary.
Nearly all the carting of the country is done
in OK carts-even in San jose For instance,

Expensive Cast Iron Bricks.

Hollow cast iron bricks if we may so term
them, says The Engineering and Building
Record, form the subject of recent German
patent granted to August Bockel, of Erfurt
As the name implies, they are made of regu-
lar form and size, the walls being O. II inches
thick. No mortar or other binding material
is to enter into their use, the fastening being
effected as follows: The upper and lower
sides of the bricks are provided with grooves
and projecting ribs, which fit into one an
other There are, further. two large circu-
lar openings In the upper side of each brick,
arranged to receive properly formed pro-
jections on the lower side OF the brick above
One of these projections is hooked shaped, so
as to give more secure hold. A mud is ap-
piled to the surfaces Of the bricks with a
brush, to make the joints air and water tight
The non-conducting air spaces in the bricks,
md the ease with which they may be put to-
gether and taken apart without injuring
them, are cited as special advantages. The
question of cost is not c0"si1ared.

had finished there came into his handsome
face a rruebtsd, half amused expression as
he said, well, it is important But your
friends Blake and O'Brien win be there. I
don't see what good could do, especially as
dent understand this 6ahery question. But
shall try and let you know in time Should
you consider my presence necessary to use
those passages you have read, why, leave
them out I shall see O'Brien and be win do
it justice should the occasion arise" And at
O'Clock on the morning OF the 18th had
another telegram from Mr.. Parnel stating
that in consequence of an important opposi-
ton bill in the house that day he could not
leave. And he was right, carrying out Mr..
O'Connors estimate of him, that 'she judges
right because ne cannot help IT. and in such
an emergency ''he is immovable by affection,
fear or reasoning"
Mr. Parnell's private life in London has
been almost mysterious in its secrecy Prob
ably not two of his parliamentary colleagues
have known his residence The suit for di-
vorce from his wife, begun by Capt O'Shea,
may resolve some of this mystery, how
ever. 1t has been rightly said of him that
he is with them but not of them And
his extraordinary grasp Of perplexingly ditfi-
cult party situations, lies, in great measure,
his strength: and as truly has it been said
that 'his strength lies in his character, not in
his attainments"
His power Of invention is small; his crea-
ton OF ideas small; he wishes rather that
others of the party shall promulgate a new
doctrine, and, having heard it debated, as
though he had not listened TO it, and calmly
looked on at very chaos of conflicting
thought and argument, he quietly stands In
the breach and in q few words settles the diff
fcUlty and sets the foundation firmly OF what
they invented and could not cement.
He is undoubtedly strange personality
adored by nearly 1890, 600 OF people-and
yet mot of them" Hated by the govern
ment he despises, but admired by them in
the same breath for his admirable rectitude
of purpose. Fighting, daring, challenging,
defying the greatest nation on earth and
bleeding at his heart for even the sufferings
of dumb animal.

solved to have it ROB- F. WALSH.

They are allowed to rest at frequent inter
walls during the long trips they make, and are
fed upon the juicy sugarcane, of which they
are so fond. They are always shod to protect
them from the roughness of the road. This
is done scientifically, and three men are occu-
pied with the four hoofs of single animal,

The carts are primitive affairs with two
wheels-solid as a rule-and single shaft
that passes between the oxen and is fastened
to the yoke, which does not encircle the necks
of the animals, but only their horns. The
owners hold that this style Of yoke is much
easier for the beast. 1t is certain that they
have tremendous strength in their horns,
some of which are simply immense as COM
pared to the horns of cattle in the north.
Cared for as these beasts are, they always
appear in excellent condition, and they are
never broken up by their long journeys up
