Seen in the Metropolis.

A refuse cart was close to the curb on
Thirty-seventh street, between Madison
and Fifth avenues, recently, while the
driver, healthy young lrishman, talked
to a woman who had on each side little
chap dressed in sailor costume. Most
passersby must have taken her for a
nurse out with her charges from one of
the fashionable houses near by. After
two minutes talk the woman lifted the
lads one by one to the side of the rough
driver, who had carefully spread piece
of stout paper over his cargo to protect
the clothing of the children.
One lad, tucked close under the driv-
er's arm, was permitted to hold the reins,
while the other poked the staid horse
with short stick. The three drove off
eastward, smiling, while the woman fol
lowed on the sidewalk. The children
were the drivers own, and they were as
we'll dressed as half the children native
to the locality in which the scene oc
curred.-New York Sun.

A Young Child Wife.

The conversation had drifted to early
marriages, and Allan Thompson, Of
Dubuque, said: 1.-The youngest wife ]
ever knew lived at Fairview, La. Her
maiden name was Ella Hotchkiss, and
at the age of eleven she was married to
youth of eighteen, whose name can
not now recall. frequently saw her
after her marriage playing with other
children about the village, making mud
pies, etc. About year after the mar
riage a little daughter-a tiny thing
weighing but three pounds-was born
to the youthful couple. The ladies of
the neighborhood then persuaded the
child wife to don long dresses and quit
jumping the rope in the street" st

Yawning Witnesses.

A few evenings ago half dozen men
were sitting out in front of the Capital
hotel discussing various topics, when
Judge Yost, of the supreme court, in
telling an anecdote of a trial, remarked
that the witness yawned and he knew
he was lying.
"How did you know" was asked.
"Well, sir, have seen witnesses lie
and not yawn, but never knew one to
yawn that he was not telling lie."
Judge Sims, the member of the legis-
lature from Trigg, remarked, Eyes,
always know witness is lying when he
yawns."
Senator Dave Smith said, "It is al.
most invariably the case"
Judge Wall, the senator from Mason,
came up and corroborated the state
ments of the others, and just then Judge
Brent, of the superior court, Joined the
group. when witness yawns he is
telling lie, and he knows it"
Several other lawyers were appealed
to, and all bore out the statements made.
None, however, could explain the phe-
nomenon. Judge Yost was the only one
who had a theory, and that was that
when fellow was swearing to a lie he
could not face the music, and his en-
barrassment found expression in yawns.

Hard to Satisfy.

Some persons are hard to satisfy. The

A clergyman in Maine, who lives neal
the seacoast, narrates an occurrence
which gave him moment of disappoint-
ment, but which has also supplied him
with very good story to tell.
He had planned beautiful drive fol
the benefit of a lady from the west who
was visiting his family-a lady who had
never seen the ocean. The route was
chosen in such a way that not glimpse
of the sea would be had until, at a Ger.
tain bend in the road, the party would
come out upon high open space, COM
manding a magnificent view of the broad
Atlantic.
AS the carriage came out upon the
plateau the clergyman turned beaming
face on the lady, expecting from her an
exclamation of delight; but instead OF
happiness on her countenance, he saw a
look of longing.

The Formation of Heat.

NJ. Lagrange has communicated to the
Belgian academy a paper on the forma.
ton of bodies in the universe. In this
paper he expresses the opinion that, be.
fore any expenditure of work. the quan.
tity of heat of the universe was nil, that
the temperature was gradually raised
above absolute zero at the expense OF
work done by attraction, and hence the
formation of solid bodies must have pre-
ceded that of liquids and gases; that,
through the gradual condensation OF
matter and consequent enormous devel'
opment of heat, the earth would attain,
at least in the parts near the surface, the
state of f1uidity necessary to its form and
geological characters; then, as the tenn
perature gradually rose with gradual
agglomeration of matter, very dense
atmosphere would form, with pressure
diminishing outward, and in more ad-
vanced phase, the temperature of this,
after reaching maximum, would gradu-
ally diminish, causing liquefaction or So
idification of certain matters at first
vaporous, while other solid bodies might
remain suspended in the atmosphere.
Briefly, NJ. Lagrange, in elucidation
of the basis of his original and remarka-
BILE theory, as thus set forth, declares
that space is occupied bytwo substances,
namely: One, attractive, which is mat
ter properly so called, or material atoms;
the other, repulsive, which occupies the
interatomic space, and from which re-
suits between any two atoms variable
repulsion exercised at the surface of the
latter.-Philadelphia Ledger.

THE NEWS OF CONGRESS.
The House Passes the Public Printing
RiII.


WASHINGTON, Dec. l0.-The brief session
of the house was devoted to completing the
consideration of the public printing bill,
which was rather speedily passed, with the
sections establishing a superintendent of
documents eliminated.
Mr. Beltzhoover's resolution providing
that the term of the president shall be for
six years and that he shall be ineligible for
reelection was referred to a subcommittee
consisting of Messrs. Crane, Gantz and
johnson. The resolution most favored by
the committee is one introduced by Mr..
De Almond, of Missouri, providing for the
election of the president and vice presi-
dent directly by the people. While the
resolution does not provide that presi-
dent may serve two terms, it contains
proviso that the person while serving as
president shall be eligible to election to
that Office
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-In the senate Mr..
Washburn had the antioption bill again
presented for action 1t was suggested by
Mr.. Harris that the print of the bill did
not show Gn distinctive type the measure
as it came from the house-the amend
ments already agreed to in the senate and
the amendments that are still pending
and that it could not for that reason be
acted ON intelligently. A new print was
therefore ordered and the bill went over,
after remark by Mr.. Washburn that he
did not intend to be stampeded or to allow
the bill to be unduly delayed.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-The senate com
mittee on immigration considered Chair
man Chandler's bill to prohibit immigra-
ton for the period of one year, but no
action was taken. The committee will

mittees on Friday and Saturday.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-Mr George ad
dressed the senate in favor of his substitute
measure for the antioption bill.
He believed that the system of dealing in
futures was detrimental to the interests of
the producer. The cotton growers were
every year becoming poorer and poorer,
and were becoming the victims of rapa-
cious policy which had taken their earnings
and added the amount to the overgrown
wealth of men who used their powers for
that purpose
Mr. Cullom introduced an amendment to
the interstate commerce law, intended to
strengthen the present act and aid in Sc
curing it's enforcement
Senator Mitchell introduced bill to pro-
vide for a national encampment of the
army and militia at the Worlds Columbian
exposition. An appropriation of 81 ,500,00O

thorizing the president to suspend immi-
grafton to prevent an outbreak of cholera.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-An investigation
of the condition of the treasury has been
ordered by the house, and the committee
on ways and means will begin the work
Thursday.

Books with Uncut Leaves.

A book, the leaves of which are uncut
possesses no value of an intrinsic char
acter beyond one that is cut, but really
less. For that matter, if it is to remain
uncut, it is as valueless as it is useless.
There is class of book collectors, how
ever, who place premium upon books
with uncut leaves, and so commend
them in their advertisements and Cir
culars. There are persons who load
certain shelves in their libraries with
uncut books. Of course they are not for
use and are not used, and are valueless
except for keeping. Brooklyn Eagle.

Caste Broken Down by Street Cars.


Street cars in Bombay are mostly of
American manufacture, and the pro-
moters of the street car lines are Ameri-
cans. When it was proposed, not many
years ago, to start such lines Europeans
prophesied their failure upon the ground
that such common public conveyances
could not be profitable in caste ruled
community. 1t was believed that the
high caste man, who will not eat or
drink from the vessel used by low
caste man, would refuse to ride in a
public conveyance beside his humble
brother.
In spite of these doleful prophecies the
railways We're built and equipped, and
lol the high caste man complacently pays
his fare and rides untroubled by the
side of any sort of man. The cheapness
and convenience of the street cars were
too much for even the hard and fast
rules of caste.-Chicago Tribune.

1t would greatly tend to simplify the
discussion if the immigration question if
the advocates of restraint would clearly
define their position. If they propose
to confine their prohibitory measures to
the Jewish and Polish victims Of Russian
oppression, to the Italians and to the
Hungarians and Bohemians, they ought
to come down to the point without any
further beating about the bush. There
is no doubt that on such programme of
exclusion they would enlist the support
of many immigrants to whom contract
and competition with the new comers
from Eastern Europe is repugnant.
The fact may as well be stated that
there is among the immigrants from
Western Europe well-nigh as much sup
port of the anti-immigration movement
as there is among the Nativists. The
demagngues who are filling the air with
their clamors for new campaign of
Nativism fully understand this. With
native as well as naturalized antipathies
of race on their side, they feel entirely
safe in preaching their crusade against
immigration. But let them declare
what races they propose to exclude from
the country, and what races they pro-
pose to fayor.-PhilG. Record.

are far better than those in sight OF

She is one of the shrewdest leaders of

REPUBLICANS are already discussing
who has the inside track for the nom
ination of governor of this state ON
that ticket in 1894. Up to the pres
ent time it was conceded that Gen
eral Hastings would have little, if any,
difficulty in capturing the prize, but
it now appears that he will have to
hustle if he wants to defeat General
Reeder. The latter has the advan-
tage just now of being chairman Of
the state committee, and his friends
claim thai he has assurance of sup
port from many influential people in
the party. If the Democrats of Phila-
delphia and Allegheny counties would
place the interests of their organiza-
tions above factional quarrels and
work for state nominees Pennsylvania
would have an interesting campaign
in 1894, and the nomination of Reeder
or Hastings would not mean the
election of either without hard
struggle, especially with William f
Harrity as the Democratic nominee
