bass Ihair Hopes.
Thousands Of republicans emphati.
cally announced at the polls two years
ago that they were indignant at the
enactment Of the Mckinley law, and
now they are indignant at the course
adopted by the, republican senate in
withholding action upon matters of
vital interest to the country. That
body refused to consider the tariff bill
sent to it from the house, and thus ig-
nored the wishes of the great majority
as expressed at the polls. Among
other shortcomings it also declined to
act on the measures looking to the nd
mission to statehood of Arizona and
New Mexico.
But there may be an apology for this
mastery inactivity on the part Of the
controlling power in the senate. 1t
may have been restrained by want OF
faith in its own wisdom, as suggested
BY humiliating experience. When the
notorious Reed congress adjourned,
after one of the longest sessions on
record, boastful republicans pointed to
formidable list of enacted laws which
were to bring the smile of prosperity
upon the entire nation. The republic
ans had passed the Mckinley tariff
bill. the pension bill, the silver bill,
the antitrust bill, the subsidy bill and
bills admitting several new states to
the union. These legislative achieve
ments were pointed to with apparent
pride and the party organs sang their
praises in grand chorus
Time wrought some radical changes,
however, and the subjects of praise
offerings began to grow alarminely
less. The pension bill involved heavy
outlay of money, the department was
badly managed, and to make matters

worse, movement was commenced
among the veterans themselves to have
the bills repealed. Business org.niza-
tions all over the country united in de-
nouncing the silver bill and the organs
of the party were forced to admit thai
1t had some fatal defects. At length
its author, Senator Sherman, intro
duced bill repeating it, and the boast
ed glory Of the republican silver legis-
lation came to an ignominious end.
The subsidy bill met with discrcdit be-
cause the bounties promised to ship
owners were not large enough to'in.s
dnce the investments WHICH it was
hoped would be made, and no new
lines were started. The antitrust law,
II it were ever really intended to nc
complish its alleged purpose, proved
utterly abortiye. It.has never stood in
the way of trusts or inrthe least i'm
paired the strength Of monopolistic in
tercsts.
They could cling to their boast of
admitting new states. They were re-
publican states. and when refusal
was made to admit two territories of
democratic tendencies, the utter sham
Of the republican claim that new COM
mopwealths were taken in to insure a
larger number of our people the full
rights of American citizenship was ex-
posed.

and battalions, and lined the top Of
the fences. each coon with an cor Of
corn tightly grasped in his paws Old
Jim and Jack with the four dogs,
charged the fence at the back line,
whooping, yelling and barking. and
away they went. Before they reached
the woods, in fact when they were 3
couple of hundred yards distant, coons
began to tumble of the fence or to stick
where they were, and such snarlipg and
swapping of teeth was never heard in
thatsection as the men and dogs charged
them, knocking them over with their
clubs The coons couldn't run on the
ground with any speed. Neither could
they put up their usual tough battle.
Their feet were covered with tar and
dirt and leaves so thickly that their
every step was difficult. Some Of them
turned somersaults in their rage, while
others squatted down or sat on their
launches and snarled and snapped.
Right and left the clubs swished
through the air, killing coon at every
blow, until the chargers came to the
corner of the fence in the edge Of the
woods. There the tangled and tarred
coons we're SO thick that it became dan.
gerous to 20 among them. After few
nips from the sharp teeth of the ami
mails old Jim, Jack, and the dogs hung
around the edges Of the mass and
banged away until they were literally
worn out. The ground, which had been
covered with dry leaves, was rolling,
tumbling mass OF living but helpless
animals, covered with tar and leaves,
In some cases SO thiclsly that the coons
couldn't even see, their eyes being COW
cred with leaves and twigs. For half
an hour the death-deafing clubs de-
seended, and at the end OF that time
the hunters and their dogs had killed
all the coons within reach. Some had
escaped by climbing the trees close to
the fence, but their escape was only
temporary, as it was evident that they
couldn't get far away. They were let
alone until daylight, when old Jim and
Jack returned with their guns and
found them still there. They soon made
short work of the dozen or so Of coons
which had succeeded in getting into the
trees. Then the work OF counting and
skinning the game began.
There were one hundred and eight
cen full-grown coons in the bunch, and
1t was no slight contract to skin them
After skinning the game the hunters
found narrow but deep gulch In which
they threw the bodies, mixing with
them armfuls Of dry brush and leaves

THE SURFACE FILM.
Some Interesting Facts Explained By
Curious Property OF Water.

Some Interesting Facts Explained By q
Curious Property OF Water.
At a recent lecture before the Royal
institution in London some very inter
esting facts were explained, which de-
pend upon the existence OF what is
called the surface film of water. Many
simple experiments show that the sur.
face of water possesses property which
tca,ises 1t to resist the passage of bodies
teithervfrom above Or fyom below. This
is true not only of soapy water, but OF
the clearest and purest water as well.
A sheet of fine gauze tends to float, be-
cause, its weight being widely distrib-
uted, each of the numerous separate
wires is resisted by the surface film so
that the water cannot readily pass
through the meshes.
Insects and plants utilize this fact in
many interesting ways. Some water
plants, whose leaves float on the water,
have very simple continuance to keep
the upper surfaces of the leaves dry.
This consists of a great number of min
mute hairs covering the tops OF the
leaves. Water cannot penetrate among
these hairs even when the leaves nre
forced down beneath the surface.
L The little RATS of eggs that gnats set
afoat ON the water are kept from sink
ing and from being upset through this
Same principle. The tiny eggs have
their points all upward, and they are
glued together SO closely that, while
there is open space all around the point
of each egg, yet the width of these
spaces 10 so slight that water cannot
readily pass through. You may again
and again upset such anscgg seraftzs but
1T will right itself every time, andsithe
upper surface will remain dry. s-r~-.
The water,spider, which spends most
OF its time under water, carries a bubble
OF air for breathing ON the under side
'sfdessof its body, and when this air is
exhausted 1t comes to the surface for
more.
II Is enabled to carry the air bubble
because the under side of its body is
covered with tiny hairs set so close to-
gether that the surface film Of the wa
ter does not pass them, although the air
does, and thus the air is imprisoned
among the hairs
