An Extra session.


The RICHMOND DISPATCH thinks that
several questions OF importance re-
curing early State legislation will re-
duire an extra session of the Legislature
next year and at no late day. Among
these are the reapportionment OF county
and district representation under the
new census, the consideration OF the
Olcott- Cleveland arrangement OF the
debt question, the extension OF our IN
sane asylum accommodations, and the
oyster fundum question.
On the other hand, large majority OF
the press OF the State have expressed
themselves as opposed to an extra ses-
sion under any existing circumstances,
and Governor Mckinney is understood
TO be Of that mind. Unless the debt
question shall assume such shape as TO
make prompt action on the part OF the
Legislature necessary, the Adra''ce
thinks legislation on all other questions
might be safely postponed until the cleo
ton and meeting of new Legislature,
which will be in less than q year. Be-
sides, a Legislature elected more than o
year ago will not be 30 competent to
deal with the questions Of the day as
one to be chosen freshly by the people
next year. But let the Governor decide.
Extra legislative sessions are always
like extra meals or extra champagne
they never do any good.

A PASTOR MARRIED.,
ANXIOUS FOR THE REBATE.
A Committee Sent to Washington to Ad-
vocate the Amendment.


yocate the Amendment.
Messrs. Il. Fl. Boykin, Thomns Akin
son, w. Il. Marlborough, and John Il.
Neimyer, Jr., left the city last night for
Washington. where they go as a commit
tee from the Tobacco Trade OF Rich
mond to use their influence to secure the
passage Of what is known as the rebate
amendment bill, copies of which have
been presented in both the Senate and
House.
They were accompanied by Mr.. S. ".
Venable. of Petersburg. The mission
Of these gentlemen is to meet with COM
mittees expected to be present from
other sections OF the country, and 10
unite with them in urging the passage of
the bill, the justice of which is recog-
nized by all.
In the Senate the bill was introduced
by Major Daniel, and petitions were pre-
sented by both him and Senator Bar
bour from all over the State of Virginia
praying the enactment OF the amend
ment. The necessity for this legislation
arises from the fact that in copying the
tariff bill the rebate clause was omitted.
The law asked for will only secure the
payment of two cents per pound rebate
on all original or unbroken packages of
smoking, manufactured, and other to-
baccos Oh hand in the warehouses Janu-

4 Cur,ou, MaryIand-virrinia Suit.

An interesting case was argued in the
Supreme Court of the United States,
savs the Baltimore Sun. involving n con-
test between Hoffman, Lee n Co., OF
Baltimore, and the representatives OF D..
p. Miner Il Brother, tobacco manufac-
turers. of Virginia. 1t appears that
Hoffman, Lee II Co. advanced certain
snms of money 10 Miner Brothers to in
vest in tobacco. While friendly relations
oyisted between the two firms tho profits
of the business were divided. Finally,
Miner Brothers failed, and in the settle
ment they were about 81, 900 short. Be-
lieying the failure was genuine, Hoif-
man. Lee & Co. signed an acknow-
ledpment of settlement in full,
in spite OF the $1,000 still due.
J. p. Miner, while visiting Mt one
of the Virginia healing springs en-
braced religion, and, 1t WAS alleged, In a
letter to Hoffman. Lee h Co. stated that
his conscience troubled him about the
settlement, which he said was not honest,
as he was in possession OF over 800, 600
when the alleged failure was an
nounced. He proposed to make
restitution. Before he could carry
ont his good intention his relatives
interfered, claimed that the settlement
made was final, and placed the invalid
Miner in an insane ASYLUM. The court
below held that the settlement was final,
and from that decision an appeal to the
supreme Court was taken. The attor-
news for Hoffman, Lee & Co. were s.

ronAcCo OFFERINGS.

It was expected that large offerings Of
bright flue-cured tobacco would be
made in the several warehouses Of
the city to-day. The weather for
several weeks, however, has been so
dry and unpropitious for the hand
ling of this grade OF tobacco that
the amount received fell short of antici-
patton. AtCentre warehouse several lots
of good quality were sold. the highest
price being $50 per hundred pounds.
The prices were all considered satisfac-
tory, and encouraging as well.
The Jesuit mission at st. Joseph's
Catholic church continues with undated

every night.

TABLE OF AVERAGES.

What is remarkable in these tables Is
the difference in the girth OF right or
left limbs or parts Of them, as may be
found in the following table OF averages !:

What is the measure of q woman's
arms when outstretched? Fifty-nine
inches for n height OF 5S.3 is curious,
because it represents seven tenths of an
inch more than the stature of the wo-
man. The talisst woman being 67.7

value. Reducing lung-capacity to litres,
the average was 2.3i, or, in cubic inches,

the least iS7. What an apparent enor-
nous difference is this 81 inches! At

CHEST CAPACITY,

When we come to depth OF chest this
is serious question, for lungs have to
do with it. How can a man or
woman breathe easily, oxigenate
all the blood, without chest ca
pacity? The measurements follow
very generally heights and weights.
From G.3 it is at its maximum with 6. 4,
and the average depth is 6,5. Seven
inches through seems little enough for
ali the work the chest has to do.
Depth of heads in women we know
little about, because of the methods OF
wearing hair, and even a woman when
cropped, conceals her tonsure by arti-
fetal means. Depth OF head is then
only an anthropometrical curiosity, and
has nothing 10 do with brains. Young
women, then, with heads 81 inches
thick. or 5.9-the average being .. 7
all possess an average amount OF ability,
and somehow, according to received @s-
thetic ideas OF the Rosetti school, bow
window heads or rotunda heads are not
considered "nice." Hence banging the
hair.
Here are feet again. How long is
woman's foot? What was the size of
Cinderellas last ? If that Spanish gen
tleman drank toast in the slipper Of
his beloved mistress, what was the liquid
contents of that pa,stOufe ? The average
foot of woman, as represented at the
Wellesley College, is the same whether
for the night or left, and measures 81
inches. Ii follows, as it naturally
should. height and weight, from S.5 to
9.9 inches. Why should We expect 1872. 3
pounds to stand on the same pedestal as
does 1904? A woman on stills would be
as useless creature as is one Of the
