A BAD BILL.


1t is said that Senator STANFORD is in
deep earnest regarding his bill for loaning
government money to farmers at an an
nual interest Of 2 per cent, and that he
will use all his influence to secure the pas
sage of the measure. If some men were to
introduce such a bill they would at once be
charged with harboring a motive not con-
sistent with uprightness and strict integ-
rity; but no such accusation will ever be
made against Senator STANFORD, whose
record places him above criticism. Out OF
the goodness of his heart the humanitarian
has evolved this scheme to help and benefit
a class of his countrymen who are in need
of assistance. The Senator finds the farm
ers are poor; that they work hard. early
and late, for small compensation; that toll
as they will, their progress towards
prosperity is slow; he sees that they
need money to improve their land, to
purchase better machinery and nipple
ments, and to make the most from their
possessions; he knows how heavily the
farmers are mortgaged, and how hard 1t is
for them to meet the interest payments.
He would go to the relief of the struggling,
toiling agriculturists who form the
strength of the nation, and believe that he
was within the bounds of law and equity,
and was employing the treasure OF the
country in the best manner possible.
1t is safe to say, however, that the
scheme will never be adopted. 1t should
not be adopted, and one dislikes to see
man as prominent as Senator STANFORD is
permit his good intentions to destroy his
judgment. When the United States gov
eminent shall have any money to loan it
will be when the financial affairs of the
nation are criminally mismanaged; when
taxes are cruelty oppressive, and the CEN
trail authority bears heavily upon the peo-
pie. The nation has no right to collect
more money than is required Tor its legiti-
mate uses, and it has no right to set itself
up in business as banker and money lender
But suppose the government had the money,
how could it make distinctions between
citizens, and loan to one class while deny
ing others? How could it lend to the
farmer on his land and refuse the carpenter
on his tools, the merchant on his goods, the
shipman on his ship, the mine-owner on his
} mine. the railway company on itsgrade and
rolling stock? In this country citizens are
presumed to be equal before the law, and
, they must be given equal rights and priv
leges, or else the government fails nits duty
The Senator would not think of turning the
: federal treasury into a great banking and
loan institute on, driving all other bank ani
: trust companies out of business; and ye
that would be the effect of the bill.
A better way to help the farmers would
be to repeal the protective laws which
are running the industries of the country
e and compelling the poor farmer to pay tw'
prices for every thing required by him tina
4 he does not raise.

LACE TRIMMED SKULLS.
The Unburied Dead in the Cas-
combs of Palermo, Sicily.

One of the strange sights OF Palermo,
in Sicily. is the long series OF vaults
called '.the Catacombsy" in which the
bodies of men and women are preserved
for generations by curious process, and
are visited by their mourning relatives
The grinning skeletons OF generals OF
governors who died fifty years ago are
here seen, clad every few years in fresh
uniforms, and their features are some
times preserved for century. =.
Undoubtedly the ugliest OF the sight
is the Ladies' Gallery. Corpse worship
here has prompted freaks OF burlesque
millinery, such as the trimming OF the
vacant skulls with deep frills OF lace.
One poor shade is in purple silk. a
young lady's mummy is adorned with a
silver crown, fantastic shoes, open-work
stockings and white kid gloves A
princess -among the most recent OF the
| interments--lies in her coffin, which
bears many artificial garlands and yards
of much noticed, funereal ribbon. On,
All Souls Day the dead in the CatacombS
may be said to hold gruesome sort q
reception; but the richer class, whose
'dear departed stand there, frequent
the cemetery at all seasons.
Imagine coming to pay your devoirs
to the ladies with whom you used to
dance; to your hostess Of former years,
to the members of your family, to the
wife of your bosom; and being received
by these phantoms of grizzly bonel These
bedizened skeletons! These rag and
bone things, aping humanity! 1t is toe
horrible!
Yet there are Palermitans who find 1
melancholy pleasure, some certain
consolation, few terrible fascina'
ton, in the relics of their dead pre-
served in this cemetery! But not all
the inhabitants approve of this mode Of
sepulture.
On certain fete days these ''catacombs'
are open to all Corners. A drunken man
once strayed in here and fell asleep. AT
night the porter locked the door without
noticing the sleeper. Awakening sober,
with the early light, the horror Of his
surroundings seized upon theman. He pan
about wildly among the dead Heshrieked,
but no one, even those in the convent
could hear him. The earliest passer-by
found him clinging convulsively to the
bars of the entrance gate. They could
hardly loose his hold. He was stark

Punished the Strikers.

"Speaking of mates and their habits,
spoke up veteran engineer, Il saw a
fellow do a trick on the Arkansas River
once for which he should have been
hanged. He's dead now, so do not
hesitate to give his name. 1t was Prin-
dle-Mat Prindle He was mate on the
steamer Fort Gibson, and l was pas
senger on the way from Little Rock to
Van Buren,. At the little town of Spa
dra Bluffs there was large amount of
salt in sacks to be discharged. Now, as
you well know sack salt is the very
worst kind of freight for the roustabouts
to handle. It is considered test of
strength and endurance. A sack of salt
is too heavy load for one man to carry,
and not heavy enough for two. Some
mates get over the difficulty when big
salt pile is to be handled by using hand
barrows' and trucks, but even then there
must be waste of labor. Prindle in
sisted the men should each carry a sack,
and the result was he soon had his crew
burnt out and they began to soldier on
him.
He noticed this and so did /. We
were both standing on the bank and saw
six of the crew sneak out of line and make
their way back along the fan tail to the
wheel. The engines were shipped up
and the wheel was in such position that
one of the buckets was on dead level.
On this bucket the six shirkers ranged
themselves like crows on the limb of
tree. When Prindle saw them he seemed
seized with sudden tiendish scheme to
punish them. He said nothing to them,
but going aboard the boat he walked back
into the engine-room, and, in an uncon-
cerned way, said to the engineer on
watch:
Bill, ! wish you would just give her
one turn ahead
The engineer did as he was told. He
opened the throttle and the wheel re.
volved. The six men gave wild veil
and chung desperately to their perch. But
1t was useless; into the river they went
and three of them never came out. Of
course there was great sensation, and
