Fast Time m Roorxmak,n,.

The fastest time on record for the
making, compiling and publishing of a
statute book comes from Oklahoma.
The legislature recently adjourned was
in session 100 days. On the morning Of
the last day there had not been passed
enactments that when printed would fill
to exceed sixty pages of an ordinary law
book. At the close OF the last day the
signature Of the governor was placed on
enough moro to fill a statute book Of
1890 pages without the index
Among these were included code of
civil and criminal procedure in both dis
trict, probate and justice courts and laws
governing crimes and punishments COW
ering 800 pages. Within thirty-five days
from the final adjournment these laws
We're copied, corrected and arranged in a
manner that Chief Justice Green, of the
territory, pronounced perfect, with side
and head notes for each section. With
in forty eight hours after the compiling
committee had turned in its last copy
the printed volume, comprising over
1900 pages, was turned over to Secretary

The Anglo-Turco- Russian complica-
ton is growing more complicatedly COM
plex. 1t now appears that the English
Roumanian interests, being jeopardized
by the continguity, or in fact proximity,
of the Interior understanding approx
mated by the Montenegrin protocol, and
the disintegration Of the ultimate con-
junction precipitated by the Herzegov-
inian interpretations, the elementary at
titudo Of the signatory powers is thereby
annulled and confirmed. This, while it
insures the autonomy of the Bosphorian
conference, infallibly results in lowering
the toll ON the Suez canal eleven scudos
each way, children and dogs half price.
This in an immaterial degree devitalizes
Premier Crispi's ultimatum eliminated
by the Hungarian-Austro imbroglio, and
the belligerents return to their corners.

Unless there be some sympathy with
suffering there will be nothing done for
it's relief, and the ties of human brother
hood will DO quickly sundered. II it is
blessing that we are unable to feel the
full force Of another's sorrow, it is no
less blessing that we have the capacity
Of feeling part Of it. And this capacity
usually needs development rather than
restraint. For a few who may grieve
fundamentally for their fancied insensi-
bility there are multitudes who are sadly
deficient in sympathy and never grieve
at all about it. 1t should never be for
gotten that all social happiness, all mu-
tual benefactions and all true beneyo-
lence are founded on the presence Of
sympathy. We're it not for this we
should be miserable and misery giving

wash his corundum, had ceased to flow.
One Of his worltlnen was despatched to
find out the cause. He quickly returned
and said that the mountain was sinking.
Soon the alarm spread and parties start
ed to solve the mystery.
They soon found that very large fis-
sure was opening in the earth in the
shape Of semicircle, and large trees
were falling in every direction. The
amount Of land encompassed was about
forty acres. By examining closely they
found that other assures were opening

places is as much as six feet wide and
the depth is unknown Atlanta

a SUNLESS WORLD.


II the glad sun were dead. q night
Amid the awful night Of space,
cold, annihilating blight
Upon our fair worlds face
The wonders OF the seasons, heat
And soothing rain, tha gentle flowers,
Reeurrent summers, and the beat
OF passion hearted hours
Would be as things not known to earth,
While neither man, nor beast nor bird,
Would waken any sign of birth,
Not any song or word;
Where souls have vainly throbbed and fought,
Who're some have conquered, there would be
No dim awakening of the thought
That scorns mortality.
No young spring huttering in the breast
OF the undying dream Of life
Love, which is more than other best,
Sweet In its very strife;
But our wan, stricken star would fly
In darkness like deaths device.
ROBBED in the winter Of the sky
And winding sheets of ice.

Little Alfonso XIII, king 81 zpafn,
whose FIFTH birthday viii be celebrated
in May, leads the most joyless life i'm
aginable. He is sensitive and sickly.
He is frequently taken down with yio-
lent attacks of collie, which last for days
and shake his tiny weak body into con-
dition of pitiable thinness. Consequent
ly he is understood, white and languid.
His mother coddles him and watches
him so closely that he rarely, if ever, has
an opportunity for bit Of boys play or
other healthful exercise He passes only
one hour daily in the open air, and this
by the side of his mother in the royal
carriage. Occasionally be Is allowed to
leave the carriage and walk in the park
sedately in the society Of his nurse, bis
English goYerness and the Countess OF
Peralta.
The people of Madrid say that the total
Of the ages Of these three companions is
100 years. The Countess of Peralta is ct
least ninety, and was the head governess
of little Alfonso's father very many
years before the miniature king was
dreamed Of. AT all events, it is certain
that the royal companions, with their
100 years, frown ON all royal capers. for
the occasional attempts of their puny
charge to run or jump or throw stones
are suppressed with military prompt
ness.
Once in two weeks the son Of the Duke
tof Casa-Jruj is commanded to the palace
to play with his sovereign, but there is
little or no benefit in this for Alfonso
XIII, since the three women Of the 100
years are with the children constantly
to prevent all boyish exuberance. SO
the small, unhappy sovereign worries
along his narrow royal way with bur-
den Of childish misery that has rendered
him prematurely sad and Indifferent

TIM SULLIVAN'S GHOST.

Whose ghost is that?"
This was said by Peter Donnelly, who
was sitting up in his bed, having been
just awakened by the noise of clanking
chains in his bedroom. The window
curtain was up, and the light from
quarter moon shed soft but clear light
upon all the objects in the room. The
ghost was walking up and down the
apartment, wrapped in a clean, white,
sheety looking costume and dragging
long chain, which was fastened to its
waist, and which made a weird noise at
every movement of the ghost.
The ghost stopped on hearing Donnel-
