SOME BRIGHT LITTLE FOLK.

Downey, of Regent street, London
commonly known as "the grand old
photographer" took the pictures Of
nearly all the celebrated people who
visited London in his day, and had a
wonderful collection of photographs of
the English royal family. He had a
particularly fine collection of pictures
Of pretty children, of which the accom-
panying cut is one. The name and
date are both missing, but the face has
probably often figured in London
drawing-rooms since then, and its own
er is almost sure to be one of the bellies
Of English society. A copy of one of
his royal family groups is to be found
in almost every household in England.
It represents the Princess of Wales,
attired in rustic raiment and straw
hat on her head. carrying one Of her
children on her back as she walks up a
hill and the other little ones toddling
after her. It was taken from life dur
ing summer visit to Balmoral. Others
represent the little princelings astride
of donkeys and Shetland ponies enjoy
ing themselves on the Scotch hills

THE NEBRASKA CASE.

James f. Boyd. the Governor, Declared
Ineligible by the Supreme Court
just now Nebraska is excited over
the decision of the State Supreme
Court at Lincoln, declaring that Gov
ernor James E. Boyd is an alien and,
therefore, ineligible, and rendering a
judgment Of custer against him. The
Governors counsel insist that the
question is one of naturalization for
the Federal Courts to pass upon and
will take the matter to the United
States Supreme Court. Should this
opinion, from which one of the Judges
dissents, be finally sustained, the
State, Douglas County, and the city Of
Omaha are placed in embarrassing posi-
ton, as even from time plior to 1867,
when Nebraska became State, and
up to the present year, Mr.. Boyd has
held numerous offices and performed
executive acts, all of which become
void, if he be an alien. AS Mayor of

Wild Meats on a D;ning-e. ar

antelope.
"Some weeks ago." he said, when
was travelling on the Chicago, Milwau-
kee and st. Paul Railroad [ CHANGED to
take dinner with the superintendent of
the dining-car service. He is an old
friend of mine. AS soon as we were
seated in the dining car and the waiter
had handed us the bill of fare noticed
the superintendent face grow cloudy.
He called the steward to him and ad-
dressed him with: You're OVERRIDING
it. aren't you? Here you have noun
tain sheep, venison, antelope, and bear
Oh this bill Of fare. Surely there's no
call for four wild meats at one meal.
and there can't be any money in such
extravagant catering for this company.

isn't SO bad as it looks. You see we've

working it off the best way we can. ,"

A Very Useful Siberian Institution Found

This is not the picture of man who

portrait of the snow scavenger OF kras-

He wears this enormous fur cloak
because he is out all night in tenn
perature of from 80 to 40 degrees be-
low zero, which, by t''e way. his good
natured white horse .oes not seem to
mind.
The function of this parsonage is to
keep the steps OF dwellings cleared OF
freshly fallen snow. In one night the
fall Of snow would render steps and
public thoronghfares almost impassa-
bic if it were not for the presence Of
hundreds of these active fellows in
each town with their little basket
sleighs.
They work all night, getting the town
in good shape for travel in the morn
ing, which is far more practical than

acts bonding the city for large sums,
which bonds are now in the hands of
capitalists in New York and Boston.
As Governor he approved numerous
acts of the recent Legislature,
chief among which are bill appropri

$50, 900 for the Worlds Fair, and the
vetoing of the celebrated maximum
freight-rate bill. The legality of his
acts in these questions has been recall

THE SNOW scAyENaER.
the American plan of waiting for q
man with shovel. to dig one out after
business hours has begun.
Cobweb Parties.

A cobweb party is great fun, says
the New York Herald. The hostess
takes as many strands of worsteds or
yarn or ribbon as the number of peo-
pie she has invited, and fastens at one
end of each strand a prize. Some of
the strands are yards and yards in
length and some are short. The
prizes are snugged away in hooks, un-
der chairs, behind pictures, upstairs,
down in the cellar, or UP on shelf.
The different strands are crossed and
woven and interviewer like the airy
threads of a cobweb. The ends are
left within reach.
The guests are invited to select a
strand and to find the other end of it,
which holds the prize. Each one goes
to work aud follows the wanderings OF
his strand in the seemingly inextrica-
BILE mass of bewildering twists and
turns and colors.
It's great fun to watch the busy
prize-seekers. At first it seems de.
liciously silly, but the philosopher for
gets the fun of it as he marks how each
one works according to his tempera
ment. With what zest and energy
and enthusiastic haste one grabs lis
string and follows its lead with eager
expectancy! With what slow, deiber-
ate inquiry another pursues the wind
ings Of the strand With what doubt
ing timidity and misgiying another
hunts for his prize, asking numberless
questions and having to be helped by
his comrades in knotty places.
The most Indifferent are piqued to
action by having the thing they wish
just within possible reach. At The end
each one has his prize as q satisfy
ing result of his labors; no matter if
he found it behind clock after many
times wandering about the room be
first entered; or whether, after Skin
mishing downstairs into the cellar, up
again, down and up the hail. and up
stairs to the garnet, and down again to
the drawing-room to find the end
Of his apparently endless strand that
led him into divers places in diverse
ways, fastened to gem Of picture
which he is privileged to take away
with him to his own domicile, and tel
ever after what time he had finding
it at a cobweb party.

In the picture gallery of Charlton
Park, near Malmesbury, England, is
glass case containing the skin and
features of big crow. The creature
had been caught and nailed to tree
with other vermin, fate which so
many thousands of crows share yearly
that there is nothing odd in it. The
extraordinary part of the matter is
that in the shelter of his wings, where
his body was before it decayed, little
wren had built itself an exceedingly
little nest. With wonderful dexterity
the tiny bird had contrived to fasten
together the wings of his dead enemy,
whose body he proposed to utilize.
The entrance to the nest was where
the crows breast had been, and here
the family of little wrens was reared.
The nest was observed, and when its
occupants had flown away it was care
fully removed and placed in tho
owners picture gallery.

Sirius Not Our Nearest Noirhbor

Years ago it was supposed that
Sirius was nearer the earth than any
other star, and its light requires over
three years to reach us. Now, how
ever, Alpha Centauri, comparatively
insignificant star of the southern
heavens, is known to be our nearest
neighbor, and Sirius is so fur removed
that the human mind fails to grasp the
distance when expressed in miles.
The fact that light requires from II to
~ years to cross the space between
our little earth and this giant orb il
scarcely more easy to comprehend.
