10 do this, it might at least for the future
abstain from the enactment of needless
and unjust laws against d people whom no
tyrannical legislation has driven or can
drive from their allegiance to the consutu-

WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.-The House

son for carrying the mails of the House to

December last. Culbertson was to give
him (WheaJ) $3.50 per month out of it and
did so until 4 discharged employee told of it,
so it got into the newspapers. Then he
concluded the contract was violation of
law and wanted to give the money back to
Cuibertson, but was told that it belonged
to the government. So he deposited it at
the treasury and stopped taking money
from Culbertson. He had consulted the
clerk OF the House, Representative Cas-
well and the speaker about the matter.
The contract was afterward taken from
Culbertson and reiet at $1,000.

Mr.. vapoerbi,t.s ,,,trr.

Ihere seems certain confusion as to
the Venetian picture by Turner which
MIR. Cornelius Vanderbilt has purchased.
That he has bought it and paid the splen-
did price of hundred thousand dollars
for it there is no doubt, but we NAV re-
ceive with a very large grain Of salt the
rumor that the millionaire was ambitious
OF acquiring Meissonier's ''Rixe," which
is one of the ornaments of Windsor, and
that he actually offered the queen half a
million dollars for it. The fact that the
rumor came around by way of Paris is
sufficient reason for fighting shy of it.
The art of taking originated in Paris,
where it had already attained colossal
grandeur before the first American Jour
nal had been printed at Boston.
Whichever of the Grand canal pictures
by Turner Mr.. Vanderbilt has bought he
has got good one. Turner understood
Venetian color, and had a peculiar pro-
cess of his own, taken from the early
Flemish school, and made his own bv
the extraordinary manner in which he
applied it-fOr rendering the exouisitelv
luminous atmospheres of the "Oueen Of
the Adriatic." And he was true-as true
as any mortal can be in the ever vary
ing, evanescent glOries of sea and sky.
Ruskin hit it when he said of Turner,
after accusing him of "exaggerating all
he saw" that the foundation of ali he
did was truth. The vivid and warm
colorings of nature he painted with the
deepest reds and yellows; the grays he
attempted to initiate with blues of too
strong a tint; yet the whole was true in
principle, both in general and in particu-
lar.-COr. Boston Journal.

Tough Old znln Chiaf.

The old chiefs in South Africa know
nothing about trekking, and on several
occasions became so impatient that they
started off on foot ahead of the wagons
One day they had to walk thirty-seveu
miles before reaching water and then
had to wait two days on scant rations
before we came up with them. One of
these men is rs years old, but the tough
old Zulu (the Matabele rulers are of Zulu
origin) was none the worse for the esca-
pade.
On another occasion, in spite of our
warnings, they left us, armed only with
assegais, IN the worst part of the lion
country. When we followed a few
hours afterward we saw that their foot
prints in the sand had been partially oh
liberated by the spoor of lion. Fort
unately, however, he had followed them
only for some hundred yards, and then,
probably not being hungry, he wan
dered off toward pool of water.
Such vagaries were to US a source of
constant anxiety, for how could we face
the king without bringing back his In
dunas2 Our own lives would not have
been safe. We should have been claimed
as impOstors or accused of witchcraft.
However, we managed to divert their
minds and keep them employed at the
wagons by shooting twenty,six grav
monkeys for them. Theskinsof this par
6cular species are only worn by royalty
or big chiefs.-Cor. London Telegraph.

An Electric PIE

In front of a butchers shop in St.
Paul, half pig, nicely prepared and of
appetizing appearance, was hanging on
an iron hook a few days ago. A dog
came running up the street, and happen.
ing to see the little pig, went up to it and
longingly snuffed around it. Hardly had
he put his nose on the pig when he ut
tered a cry of pain and ran bowling
away.
A second cur soon appeared and Jared
no betteri he ran away bowling as if a
ghost had laid its hand on him. Gradu.
ally as a third and fourth dog had
shared the same fate q crowd gathered
and every one looked with distrust at the
porker.
One OF the owners of the shop, who
wanted to find out the cause Of the trou.
bic, at last went up to the pig, touched
1t, and also few back as though taran-
tula had stung him; he had received an
electrical shock. An investigation proved
that an electric light wire had come in
contact with the hook ON which the meat
hung, and thus the pig was completely
tiiied with electricity, - Philadelphia
