The resignation of Judge Cooley from
the inter state commission is
a national loss. Whatever success has
attended the administration of the inter
state act has been due to his
wise and able Interpretation Of it. No
other man in the country possessed, in
the same degree, the confidence of both
the public and the corporations with
which he had to deal. The name of
Judge Gresham has been suggested for
the succession. Although he has not
the vast learning and profound knowl-
edge of law that Judge Cooley possesses,
he would make an excellent member of
the commission.

tho clever ballet dances which he had or

This child, whose name was Marie, was q

daughter. She danced it in a Berlin thea
ter and was famous. she had not only
nimble legs, but also pretty face and q mar
velous form. Gold and alteration poured
in. and within u few years she had made y
ers, her father managed affairs 80 that her
reputation was kept clean. After about fif-
teen years of triumph she married Count
Gilbert dc Voisins. She danceda few years
longer and retired In lo4i. Her Rreat Tor
tune enabled her to divide her time be-
tween several places in the various parts OF
Europe. After the death of her husband
and during the Franco russian war she
lost all her money and had to teach deport-
ment and dancing in London until her
death in 1881.
Long before she retired from the stage

which had made her aunt the delight of all

irst until that time, found her right to the
place disputed.
The younger Taglioni did not dance long.
After she had made a considerable fortune
he married in 1866 Count Joseph Windisch-
yratz. of Austria. She Immediately retired
rom the stage. Her husband was rich and
lad several beautiful castles. She passed
most of her time in Vienna. For the past
CIV months she has not been we'll and has

The administration crowd at Wash

management in the census office, which
tho next democratic house OF represen-
tatives will inevitably order. The WASH

rotten bureau. 1t says:
There are many transactions in that office
which will DO paraded before tho country

many offenses have been committed as in

the census is utterly unreliable, but it seems
that enormous sums have been spent, aud
how or where will only come out when
some one is made to tell the truth about the
inside transactions of the office.
