ton, and considerable curiosity was
evinced as 10 how our ancient maiden
would treat the query as to her are.
When her turn came she was eQual
TO the emergency. She quietly filled
in all the desired information, and
when the eager eyes around scanned the
"age column" they found they could
make nothing Of It. Everything else
was written out in a neat, clear hand,
but here they were stumped.
Why, Miss Arabella," said the land.

IN THE HOUSE.
There was less than a quorum present
when the House met this morning and
a call of the House was ordered. a
quorum appeared, and the journal was
read and approved.
A wrangle arose over the status Of the
Conger Compound Lard bill. Its
friends insisted that II came up as un-
finished business, as 1t had reached
the stage when the previous question
was ordered, when the House adjourned
last Saturday for lack of a quorum.
Its opponents antagonized 1t with the
Options bill, contending the Lard bill
had had It's day in court and could not
come up again, particularly as the
Options bill was the special order Tor
to-day and tomorrow.
The Speaker ruled In favor Of the
Land BILL saying the House was en-
titled 10 yea and nay vote on It.
Mr. Mason appealed from this de.
cision, and by yea and nay vote the
Speakers decision was sustained, but
as no quorum voted, that didn't count
and call Of the House was ordered.
