Attorney General Tabor has already rem
dc,ed one opiuion in regard to certain disputed
points in the Ballot Reform law, and on Satur-
day, in response to a series Of questions put
by the Secretary of state, he furnished none
comprehensive statement concerning all the pro-
visions OF the new law on which doubt has been
thrown. The second opinion covers some OF
the ground gone over in the first, but in the
main il consists of new matter. Although 1t
is long TIE TRIBUNE prints il in full this
morning, believing that too much information
in reference to the new method OF voting can
not be laid before the public. What the At

A Courteous Prince.

"DO not be afraid, Louis" said the
Empress Eugene. holding her son in her
arms.
"I am not, mamma, answered the boy
Of II; "I have not forgotten that my
name is Napoleon"
The cutter in which the empress and
her son were being conveyed at night
from q steamer had struck a rock, and
the waves were dashing over it at the
time this conversation took place.
The young prince, who sfterward lost
his life in the war between the English
and the Zulus, had one trait not common
to children-he treated his playmates
and all who served him with marked
courtesy. The favorite companion OF his
sports was Louis Conneau, the son of the
emperor's physician. They were daily
together, and many storms Tuffied their
intercourse.
One day, when there was to be state
dinner at the Tuileries, at which the
prince was not to appear, he invited
Louis Conneau to dine with him. Both
lads were very fond of strawberry cream,
and the prince, in order to give an agree
able surprise to his playmate, requested
that dish to be prepared for the dessert.
During the morning the two boys
quarreled, and Louis Conneau returned
home. The prince, too proud to show
any emotion at his playmate's departure,
took his seat at the dinner table and
tried to eat. But when the strawberry
cream appeared his self control gave
way. The tears rolled down his cheeks,
as he said to servant:
"Take the cream to Conneau, and tell
him haven't the heart to eat it without
him"-Youth's Companion.

At Rome, in 1929, it rained dust, mixed
with blood, for three days, and when the
heavy clouds drifted away it looked as if
the sun was swimming in sea of fire.
Four years later, in 1926, snow fell in
Syria, which presently melted and flowed
in carmine rivers of blood, or some fluid
much resembling it in every particular.
Many of the old writers record three
day shower of blood red rain in the
Island of Rhodes and throughout South
ern Italy in 1886. A monk, writing in
1851, tells Of a loaf being cut out of
which blood flowed as freely as from a
fresh wound.
In 1348 there were many great tenn
pests. Several towns and thousands of
people were swallowed up and the
courses of rivers changed or stopped.
Some chasms in the earth sent forth
poisonous fluids, as red as carmine ink,
as at Villach, in Austria. Ponderous
hailstones fell in many parts Of Germany
the same year, some Of them weighing
from twenty to seventy pounds. At
Lamech it rained flesh, dust, comets and
meteors; firebrands and coruscations
were in the air; mock suns, with fiery
tails, sailed through the skies. Soon
after these terrible scenes at Lamech 1t
began ct Cataya, near the sea, and went
sweeping throughout southern Europe.
An igneous vapor or sulphurous fire
broke from the earth at Caahery, Asia,
and utterly consumed men, beasts,
houses and trees, so injecting the air
that great plague followed. Young
serpents and millions Of venomous in
sects fell from the clouds.
In 1881 Burgundy experienced the
novelty of shower OF blood red rain,
which ensanguined everything it touch
ed: and in 1888 the Antiura reapers found
all wheat heads to be as red rs bloed. In
1888 bread put In the oven at Nuremberg
was taken out covered with a bloody
sweat. Wurtemberg had shower OF
birthstone and ashes in 1884. In 1896
Limerick and Tpperary, Ireland, had
many showers Of soft, fatty substance
resembling butter. II ,as OF u dark
yellow color and always fell at night.
The people gathered it and used it as an
ointment, reporting many astonishing
cures.-St. Louis Republic.

The Chinese silk Festival,

We, who are always grateful to our
benefactors, honor the inventor Of the
art of silk culture with real perpetual
cult. Besides the temples which we have
erected in all the corners of the empire,
her majesty the empress goes every year
at the Matching season, in person, with
all her suite, and in great pomp, to the
field of the mulberry, to sacrifice to the
goddess who was the queen of the EN-
peror Hoang-Ti. After the ceremony at
the temple, her majesty, followed by her
ladies, goes into the field, and, surrounded
by the farmers wives, cooks some null
berry leaves and lays them on a basket
containing the newly Matched worms.
The festival is closed with her winding a
cocoon by way of setting an example, in
the presence Of the people, and distrib-
uting gifts to those persons who have
been reported by the authorities of their
villages as most worthy by reason of
their fidelity in attention to the care of
the silk worms.
This ceremony, which is one of the
most important of those her majesty has
to perform during the year, is a great
incentive to the silk raising population,
who cannot neglect their own work
when they see their sovereign occupied
in the same way. An old proverb says
that "an idle farmer causes two persons
to die of hunger, and a woman who will
not weave will see ten dying of cold"
The proverb illustrates the value of en-
couragement, and shows that silk worm
raising and weaving are duties of the
women.-"Chinese Silk Lore" by Gen.
Tcheng Ki Tong in Popular Science
Monthly.

A Dogs Friends.

Did the reader ever see dog perform
the ceremony of introducing a human
friend2 The writer has himself seen the
thing done in way, but never, perhaps,
so plainly and prettily as friend of his
has lately witnessed it, the friend himself
being the introduced party" His friend
call him Mr.. lives in Roxbury.
For near neighbor he has man who
keeps q carriage and also fine setter
dog. Mr.. j. does not enjoy the acquaint-
ance of the neighbor, but he has come to
be on excellent terms of friendship with
the dog.
Every day Mr.. j sallies forth at
about the same hour. Every day he
meets the dog whose salutations have
gradually passed from mere friendly
formalities to affectionate greetings.
Yesterday as Mr.. j came out of his
house, he found the dog-who always,
when the carriage starts, goes circling
about the horses head, barking with Joy
waiting for him. The carriage, with
the horses attached, stood waiting for its
occupant. The dog at once came bound.
ing up to j, and then went bounding
back to the horse. He licked the horse
on the nose, and came back to j
again, and again returned to the horse,
evidently laboring under the stress Of
something that he wanted to say or do.
1t was quite plain, in fact, that he
wanted his human friend to take notice
of his equine friend; he was doing his
best to introduce the man to the horse,
and make them friends too. So j,
whose big heart can include horses as
well as dogs, yielded to the dogs earnest
solicitations; he went up to the horse
and patted its head and rubbed its nose.
And then the dogs satisfaction and gay
ETY. were simply inexpressible. He gy-
rated about until it seemed as if he were
in danger Of swallowing his own tail;
and his affection, both for the man and
for the horse. was plainly greatly in
creased by the consciousness that they
now knew each other.-Boston Tran
script.

Mental Capacity Of Spiders.

Experiments on the mental powers Of
hundreds of spiders have been made by
Messrs. G.. w. and E. G. Peckham.
Evidence was given that the faculty Of
smell is fairly developed in all but thres
out Of twenty-six species. but the posi-
ton of the organ of smell was not
found and is not known. Loud sounds
were apparently unperceived; the epei-
rids were sensitive to the sound OF =
tuning fork, while the spiders thas d
not make webs gave no heed to it.
Love of offspring was manifested N
all spiders by eagerness to receive bark
cocoons within twenty-four hours, though
few recognized them after q longer Pc
riod. and none seemed able to distinguish
their own cocoons from another spiders
or from pith balls Of the same size.
Sight appeared to be good, though from
familiarity only through touch cOcoons
were found with difficulty, even whes
within three-fourths OF an inch. Ths
color sense seemed fairly developed, with
preference for red. The authors de
credit the notion that tspiders feign death,
accepting Darwin's explanation that The
habit of lying motionless has been a.
quired in different degrees to serve dN-
ferent purposes.-New York Telegram

Fun for ArithmetIcIans.

Talk about mathematical puzzles! Here
is one that beats out the hen-and-a-ha half,
egg-and-a-half algebraical nightmare. On
a Rondo street car Alderman Patrick
Kavanagh put quarter into the change
box in the front door. An instant be-
fore young lady had deposited dime
in the same sub-treasury. The driver
returned from the outside two change
packages, blue and white one, stimuli
taneously. With true gallantry Mr.. Kav-
anagh waited for the young lady to help
herself, which she did, Inadvertently
taking out the blue one, and, by mis-
take, dropping two dimes into the PAY
Here" lock box. Kavanagh demanded
his change, but the driver obdurately re.
fused to give any moe Hard words
ensued, to the great embarrassment of
the lady, and the alderman refused to
take the ten cent package, which re-
manned in the possession of the COM
pany. Kavanagh, of course, paid no
more for his ride; the young lady paid
twenty cents, and now how much was
the company ahead ON the deal?-Chss-
