ator escorted Mr.. Shoup to the clerks
desk, where he took the oath of office.
Senator Harris subsequently inquired
what had become of Senator Vance's
motion and said that Shoup was SIM
ply sworn in on his prima facie case.
Senator Vance remarked that 1t was
stated in the newspapers that three
senators had been elected in Idaho,
and that the legislature had gone to
the expense Of assigning each of them
the term for which he should serve.
That was contrary, he said, to the rule
Of the senate and to the constitutional
provision. He thought proper, there
fore, that the question be determined
by the proper committee.
Senator Mitchell said he had re-
liable information that 80 far a. the
election of the three senators was con.
cerned, all had been regular and in
order. Senator Hoar argued that the
question was very simple one, and it
was clear and unquestionable. One of
the two senators whose credentials had
just been presented would go out on
March 4, 1891. The Idaho legislature
had, therefore, elected a senator for the
term which would then begin. Be-
yond all question there would be a
vacancy at that time, because one of
the two gentlemen would have to go
out on March 4, 1891.
Senator Carlisle argued that the leg
islature Of Idaho had no right to as
sumo ''in advance of action by the
senate" that there would be a vacancy
from that state March 4, 1891. No
election for q senator to fill such a
vacancy could take place until 1t was
legally known that the vacancy would
occur. After it was determined by the
senate, In constitutional way, that
there would be a vacancy after that
time, the legislature of Idaho, If in ses-
sion, might proceed at once to choose a
senator; and If the legislature were not
in session the appointment of senator
should be made by the governor. He
imagined that there had never been q
case In the history of the country
where q legislature had chosen three
senators at once.
Senator Hawley thought that 1t was
not Imperative under the constitution
that there should be q vacancy after
the 4th of March next.
Senator Carlisle: II think co."
Senator Hawley-Then how could
the Legislature Of Idaho be any more
certain Of that fact three months hence
than it is today?
Carlisle answered at some length and
then Senator Vance's motion to refel
the credentials Of Shoup and McCon
nell to the committee on privileges
and elections was agreed to.

THE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE.
Lewiston's Superior Advantages Con.
ceded by al Sections.

The Boise Statesman with character
istic fairness and commendable gener-
osity opens up its columns for the pub
lication Of all letters and discussions
concerning the location Of the Agricul-
tural College site. It presented entire
the claims for Lewiston that were set
forth In . recent issue of the TELLER
and kindly offered the following COM
ment in editorial:
"The Statesman cheerfully yields
space to an article from the Lewiston
TELLER, claiming the Agricultural Col
lege for that city. The reasons are
adroitly stated, and 1t is to be conceded
that II any place in the Panhandle is to
be chosen for the site, Lewiston has the
best claims. The general government
is to give this institution $58, 900 annu-
ally. The expenditure Of that sum
with the additional amounts which
would be distributed by the students
naturally will arouse the various places
to an effort to secure the prize, and 1t is
to be feared that in the haste Of legisla-
tion an error will be made which will
be irretrievable. This will be . State
institution for al time, therefore wise
forethought should be exercised In the
selection Of its site. Climate, accessi-
bility, irrigation, the soil, the surround
ings, the native products, the market,
and hundred other matters should
each receive careful scrutiny, and when
oil these are carefully considered,
compared and fully understood,
then let the town which has the best
advantages be the chosen ate. Politic
al reasons and partisan desires have nc
place In such matter. The Statesman
will expect the usual war cry agains,

PICTURES OF THE MOON.

The New System of Photographing the
 Sky Bringing Out the Facts.
 Prof. Holden, of the Lick observa- tory, by means of it's great telescope, has taken picture of the moon, which is said to be a triumph of astronimical photography. Prof. Weinck, of the ob- servatory of Prague, who has probably studied the surface of the moon more than any other man living, helped Prof. Holden in the delicate work of making the negative. A feature of the picture is the bed of the sea, of which Mr. Hol- den says, as reported in the New York Post:
 ''The large sea at the left hand of the cut is the Mare Crisium. Its dimen- sions are about 2s1 by 355 miles. Its area is about that of Ohio and Indiana combined. It is, in fact, not sea, but the floor of a great p1ain-which may once have been sea, but which is not so now-like one of the small plains on the island of Hawaii, only on grander scale. To give an idea of the vertical scale, it may be noted that the highest mountains surrounding the sea are about eleven thousand feet"
 The professors of the Lick observatory are taking a series of pictures of the moon, from which an immense map is ultimately to be made. The work will cost five thousand dollars.

FLAGMAN BRAMAN KILLED.
Peculiar Accident on the New England
 Road at Clayton.

The crossing at Clayton. station, near New Britain, on the New England road, was the scene of bad accident yester- day afternoon. The 1 o'clock train from Waterbury was nearly half an hour late and was running at a very fast rate when it reached Clayton, in order to make up some of the lost time between here and Hartford. A load of logs drawn by two horses was crossing the tracks as the train rounded the curve at Clayton station, and before it could get across the engine had struck the wagon, breaking the logs into several pieces and smashing the wagon into pieces. The driver was thrown to the ground and one of the horses was killed. The coupling between the tender and the baggage car was broken, but the engine remained on the track. The trucks of the baggage car were driven back under the smoker, and both cars were badly injured; the smoker was thrown from the track, but none of the passengers were injured.
 The accident was the indirect cause of the death of Flagman F. M. Braman some time later. He was sent out from Clayton station to flag the west bound trains and about 5:30 o'clock was found dead, lying on the track. His body was taken to Hartford on the train reaching there at 6:35 o'clock. Medical Examiner Fuller made an examination of the body and found a fracture of the skull just above the left ear. Braman's re- mains were turned over to an under- taker. He was about 22 years of age and belonged in Hawleyville. It is not known what train struck him.

How the Original Chromo Man Got His
 Start.
 The Louis Prang who introduced the ''chromo" to this country, and whose name is as familiar as that of the presi- dent of the United States, has had as eventful career as anybody almost that can be named in these piping times. He was born in Prussia, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, and when he was eighteen he was an all around expert in calico printing. He travelled through Europe for a wealthy Bohemian manufacturer, who wanted him to spend four years in discovering the methods of certain manufacture and come back and start a factory in Bohemia. But while he was on this trip, in 1S49, he returned from England to join in the uprising in Germany. The revolutionary movement wasn't successful, and when it was over- thrown he was wanted for having been the leading spirit of democratic club. He fled to Switzerland, but he was obliged to keep moving, and came to New York in 1850. Immediately after ward he settled in New England. He tried half a dozen ventures, and mis- fortune followed him faithfully He did so poorly in one business that he sold out his tights after years hard work for twenty-five dollars, but with that twenty-five dollars he got together the capital which, in after years, enabled him to start a little lithographing shop. It was an illness that caused him to relinquish his trade of wood en- graving that started him in the line that broupht fame and fortune
