part of the Constitution of the State,
and by decision of the Supreme Court
of the United States, is an inviolable
contract between the Sta'e and the
Louisiana State Lottery Company,
will remain in force, under any cir
cumstances, five years longer, or until
1895. The Louisiana Legislature.
which adjourned the other day, voted
by twO-thirds majority in each House,
to let the people decide whether the
Lottery shall continue from 1895 until
1919. The general impression is that
the people will favor continuance.

In the course of few years, if all goes
well, Joan of Arc will become St. Jeanne
dare. 1t takes good while to become
a saint. First the cardinals sacred con-
gregation at Rome examine the life of
the candidate in it's most minute particu-
lars. If this examination is satisfactory,
then the candidate is pronounced vener-
able. Next after that the successful can
didate is pronounced beatifed. In order
to be beatifed, however, it is necessary
that the person shall have performed
four miracles. A cardinal, who is called
the devils advocate, searches for all the
sins committed by the candidate during
the earth life, and all the worst and
weakest points. These are laid before
the cardinals congregation by the devils
advocate. The candidate who is able to
survive all this probing is, in course OF
time, after being beatifed, fully canon
lied and placed in the calendar as saint.

Noted Lecturers,

Maj. Pond, the famous lecture agent,
tells some pleasant stories of noted stars
whom he has managed.
His career as lecture manager began
at Salt Lake City in 1878, and Ann
Eliza Young, mo. 49," was his first
star. In consequence of her lecture in
Washington on the iniquities of Nor
monism, the Poland anti-polygamy bill
was passed within forty-eight hours.
Ann Eliza cleared $4,000 for herself in
two years. Beecher was Ponds greatest
star. He began in 1876, delivered under
the contract 1900 lectures, of the profits
of which the lecturers net share was
S242, 900. Pond admires Beecher with
enthusiasm.
Another lecturer to whom he was
warmly attached personally was Wen
dell Phillips. He says: "Wendeu Phil
lips was another broad gauge, lovable
character. IIectured with him in many
towns, and the more l saw and heard
him the more l admired him."
In large towns Beecher got $500 a
night; in small ones, 5000. Anna Dick
inson was paid $500 a night, Mrs Liver
more 5000. Except Beecher, the lecturer
who cleared most money in a single
season was Tom Mast, the caricaturist.
Mark Twain can make $4,000 a season
any time he chooses to take the platform.
If you wish to become a successful lect-
urer you must first do something that
will make the public want to see you.

The navy at present, feeble as it is,
costs $3O,000,0 900 a year. Much of this
goes in salaries to ornamental officers,
comparatively little to the common men
who do the work and have no hope of
promotion, no matter how brave or
efficient they are. There are so many
Annapolis graduates now that there are
not officers places enough for them, but
their pay goes on. Some day our navy
aristocracy will go to pieces. The only
true way to create officers would be to
take from the ranks of the common
enlisted sailors such as showed them
selves particularly capable, and put
them in the naval academy, and give
them the education for officers. Two
results would follow: capable American
young men would enlist on our war
ships, and the navy would be oficered
by men, not by snobs and dudes. The
same rule of promotion ought to prevail
in the army as well.

Some gentlemen dining in fashiona-
BILE restaurant not long since were much
surprised, on offering the waiter tip,
to have him answer in a dignifed, manly
way: "No, thank you; that's all right"
If it becomes known that this is the rule
at that restaurant, the place will make
fortune-take in money enough to pay
its walters the highest wages. The res
taurant which should exhibit this sign
conspicuously, ''No tips allowed" would
find its trade largely increased in short
time. Americans owe it to their own
self respect to stamp out the feeling of
walters, sleeping car porters and others
of that class before it becomes the griev-
Gus burden and evil that it is in Europe.

The Greatest Bridge.

Congressman McAdoo, of Jersey City,
has introduced into the house bill
which will grant permission to a COM
pany to construct the largest bridge in
the world. The company proposes no
less stupendous work than the build
ing of bridge across the Hudson river
between New York and Jersey City.
Plans have been fully prepared and
the money subscribed. 1t will cost about
$36, 900, counting in all expenses.
Capitalists in both Europe and America
furnish the funds. This is the age for
enterprises SO vast as to require inter-
national resources.
Mr.. Gusta7e Lindenthal is the engineer
of the work. 1t is expected to require
seven years in building. The gigantic
span will be 1850 feet long, by far the
longest span in the world. The bridge
will be fifteen feet higher than Brooklyn
bridge, and will span North river from
shore to shore, without central support
or obstruction to the river. 1t will be
suspension bridge, built wholly of steel
cables.
1t will be a railroad bridge and not to
be used for wagon traffic. Six tracks
will be laid side by side upon it. Every
day thousand railway trains and 10000
passengers enter and leave Jersey City
at present, and the number is constantly
increasing. Over the new bridge passen-
gers and freight will come into New York
itself, without the Intervention of the
horse scented ferry boats.
The Jersey end of the bridge will be
at Hoboken, the New York end some
where about Fourteenth street. This
point, the narrowest in the Hudson for
fifty miles, is a little more than two and
one-half miles above the Battery. At
the New York entrance to the bridge
there will be thirty tracks to accommo-
date the waiting trains. On account of
the enormous expense of ground rights
in New York, a feature unique in rail
way stations will be introduced here.
The station will be a two story one, with
trains on both floors. The downstairs
platform will contain sixteen tracks.
Stairways from the street will lead to
the trains. Elevators will convey pas
sengers to trains on the second story
platform, which will have fourteen
tracks.

\ Useful Life.

| Peter Henderson, market gardener,
| lameIated. The market gardening and
Horticultural interests of this country
owed him debt that cannot be reckoned
in words or figures. The mans own life
is at once an encouragement to poor
boys and an illustration of how our
country rewards those who bring to her
something really useful.
Peter Henderson was born in Scotland
i'll 1928, poor country boy, with almost
no advantages beyond those which ma
ture gave him. He was early appren-
ticed to a gardener. Little spare time
fell to an old country apprentice in those
days, yet the boy used such precious
scraps of leisure as came to him in study
ing botany. He studied very carefully
and faithfully, illustrating his work as
he went along by herbarium which he
himself made. After 4 year spent in
drying, preserving and classifying his
plants, the Botanical society of Edin-
burgh gave him gold medal for the
most scientifically arranged herbarium.
At this time he was only II. From
that time on he took a prominent part in
gardening societies in Scotland. He de-
nounced in the severest terms the prac-
tice among gardeners of keeping their
processes a secret. He believed if any
thing in horticulture was good, all the
world should know of it. He certainly
practiced what he preached in this re-
spect, for when in America in after
years he himself came to write books on
gardening, he made the directions so
plain that the veriest city novice could
take one of them and, by closely follow
ing the printed page, could cultivate
successfully all ordinary flowers and
vegetables.
When he was 20, Peter Henderson
came to America. He had no capital at
all. But he worked for gardeners and
florists, common labOrer-no, a very un-
common laborer-and saved his money.
In four years he set up as market gar
dener for himself.
Gradually the business of florist was
added, then that of scotsman. At the
time of his death Peter Henderson's
greenhouses alone covered five acres in
Jersey City and kept busy 100 men. He
had much property besides, for he was
shrewd business investor. The Scotch
gardeners prentice lad had become in
America a very wealthy man. He was
never ''set in his ways" but ever on the
lookout for improved methods of work
and culture. AS fast as he came in pos
session of information he gave it to
others, in his books and elsewhere. So
it came about that he was always learn
ing, always teaching.
When the Jersey City bank, of which
Mr.. Henderson was one of the founders,
failed through mismanagement, he was
one of three men who made up the loss
to depositors out of their own pockets.
He was always interested warmly in
public enterprises and always ready to
help. He was &c years old when he died,
and until his late sickness had never been
i'll a day in his life.

Great news comes from Vienna. Tr

Great news comes from Vienna. Two
young doctors, brothers, of the name of
Jolles, have discovered the grippe bacil-
lus. 1t is plainly not the cholera bacil-
lus or the pneumonia bacillus, and it
has head shaped like bishops cas-
sock. Therefore the young physicians
named it the bishop bacillus. They have
already inoculated rabbit with the
grippe virus and killed the rabbit. Now
will they or any other doctor tell us how
to avoid taking the grippe9

Something will be done about money
during this congress, apparently. Sena-

bonds, but gold and silver bullion. AT
the same time Secretary WINDOWS house
bill provides for the issuance of coin cer-
tifcates and the coinage of silver, as rec
commended in his message.
