One Of the prominent young bachel ors Of

sppesrs d in the Boston Journals editorial
columns:
Georgia is going to tax bachelors. A bill
for that purpose has been brough. into the
Georgia Legislature and the House Gem
raitlee on b, gieDe aed sanitation has re-
ported il favorshly. Under it's terms it wi
cost Georgian S25 to begin the bachelor
business at 80 years OF age, and On srsising
scale of s25 for five years q man of 60 and
over will be at the expense Of $500 per
annum for the privilege Of going without a
wife.
my heavens, il that Law goes into effe
we are lost. You see Georgia is domipat, d
BY the farming element. They waot to
tax everything and everybody. Now why
don't they tax the infant industry and let

You may laugh, but its pretty serious

or swirgs in the hammock. Wed be too
poor after the tax. No more treating our

The failure Of Mr.. Nelson 20 show up q
Bangor with his string Of horses has excl ed
| q good deal OF comment among the horse
men of this city. II has been eonadentis
| believed BIZ many that the visitors at the
Bangor fair would surely see the great
Maine stallion and good deal of additions
interest was felt in the fair on that account.
A few, however, who understood tae case
more thoroughly have not felt at sill tina.
Mr.. Nelson would come East again in season
for Bangor. The fact that a large number
Of the Sunnysids horses we're entered for
the races at Independence, Ia, for the
week which ended last Saturday showed
pretty conclusively that Maine people need
not expect to see Nelson right away. II
would have been well nigh i'm
possible for Mr.. Nelson to have
wouod up the week at Independence
sad then got his horses started for Maine in
season to resch Bangor, with the horses in
any sort of condition. Ia regard to the
reports Of the great disappointment felt
over Nelson's failure to break his record,
there has been much exaggeratiou.
Waterville is no sporting city and very little
betting has been done on Nelson's chances
anyway. 10 fact, the whole matter of Mel
sons performances this season has been
discussed very quietly here. There has
beer. of course. general belief that the
horse would better his record some hat and
the opinion sill prevails that be will do it
before the season closes. Every body will
be ready to applsud the horse when he
resches home with his present, or better

The Antluuity of Geese.

There is much curious amusement To
be had in tracing where the foodstuffs
we use and the domestic animals we eat
or use, originally came from. Professor
Max Muller, reasoning through his sci
ence Of words, finds that the goose was
domesticated very early, or at least some
bird like it.
Goose in English. ganse in German;
dropping the g according to the laws Of
language, the word becomes anser In
Latin and correspondingly in Greek,
with the aspirate that marks the Digam-
ma was dropped, and SO back TO ansa in
the Sanscrit. Our prehistoric sanscrit
ancestors of the Indian fable lands, had
geese. Professor Muller, therefore, con-
cludes birds resembling them closely,
though thousands Of years the name has
remained, varying only according to the
known laws Of the change Of pronuncia-
ton, and probably the livingston
throughout behind the name. Such Ii

No movement for cursailment OF the pro-
