Adams stat,

The Taliuudic writers tell US that 1.-THE
blessed God gave to the first nan in par
adise a staff which had been created be-
tween the stars. Adam gave it to Enoch,
Enoch to Noah, Noah to Shem, Shem to
Abraham, Abraham to Isaac, Isaac to
Jacob. Jacob carried it into Egypt and
gave it to his son Joseph. When Joseph
died his household goods We're taken to
the house of Pharaoh. Pharaoh took the
staff Of Adam, which had descended to
Joseph from the first man, and put it
among his special treasures."-St Louis

WASHINGTON, Sept. 28.-[Special -
Some important legislation by this con

While the house has gone even farther
than the Reed rules, which provided for
the counting of a quorum, and has
adopted p code which enables the com
mittee on rules Ma the speaker to pass
or defeat any measure at any stage, the
senate has refused to depart from its
time-wOrn rule of unlimited debate, and
even Senator Voorhees, now acknowl-
edges that no measure can be enacted
into law without the consent Of the
minority that the majority will work
only by the sufference Of the minority,
and all legislation must be the result of
compromise.

A VETERANS VERDICT.
The War is Over. A Well-known Sol
der, Correspondent and Journal
ist Makes a Disclosure.

Indiana contributed her thousands of brave
soldiers to the war, and no state bears a bet
ter record in that respect than it does. In
literature it is rapidly acquiring an
Cnviable place. In war and literature
Solomon Jewell, wen known as a writer as
Sol" has won an honorable position; Dur
ing the late war he was a member of Co. M,
2d. n. Y. Cavalry and of the 18th Indiana In
fantry Volunteers. Regarding an important
circumstance he writes as follows:
Several of US old veterans here are using
Dr. Miles Restorative Nervine. Heart Cure
and Nerve and Liver Pills, all of them giving
splendid satisfaction. In fact, we have never
used remedies that compare with them. OF
the Pills we must say they are the best COM
bination of the qualities required in a prep
~aration of their nature we have ever known
We have none but words of praise for them.
They are the outgrowth of a new principle in
predicting, and tone up the system wonder,
ful:y, We say to all, try these remedies"

Among the figures forming part of the
architectural decorations of the interior
of the chapel of Henry VII is one of a
saint reading book and wearing pair
of spectacles without side strips, and of
the form that used to be distinguished
hv the name goggles. Such early eye.
glasses were circular in form and were
fixed in rims of leather, connected by a
waist or curved piece of the same mate
rial. Leather has elasticity enough to
hold the glasses in position on the nose.
Such a pair, probably not later than
the time of Charles IL of England, is pre-
served in the British museum. These
leather trimmed goggles appear to have
been succeeded by glasses of the same
shape with rims of tortoise shell and a
steel waist. An example of the early
part of the last century, in the original
black fishskin case, shows that there
was difficulty in attaching the waist to
the rim with the requisite firmness
Hence arose the rims with a rigid waist
and side pieces for keeping the specta.
cles in position.
But they were heavy and clumsy,
whether in tortoise shell or horn, and
the difficulty remained of making reli
able hinge in such brittle material. This
seems to have brought into existence
the heavy gold, silver and steel specta.
cles of our grandfathers, - jewelers.

Seated together in Broadway car
were five Cinnamon, all chewing gum
1t was evidently their first experience
with this deadly form of dissipation, but
they were enjoyingit immensely. They
chewed and champed together and chat
tered away in their native tongue in the
most animated fashion.
The other passengers in the car were
much interested, and watched the mis-
guided Cinnamon intently. The All
Sins were as oblivious to the other pas
sengers as il they were in the fantasy
of an opium dream.
By their gestures aud gibberish they
made it plain to the spectators that they
were discussing the deep mysteries Of
the slot machine from which they had
extracted the gum They also discussed
the gum itself. They would hold it be
tween their teeth, stretch it out until il
would break, thrust it back into their
mouths, chewing and chatterng all the
time.
A ministerial looking man sitting op
posite made a gesture OF disapproval tC
one of the Cinnamon. A smile stole into
the slant eyes of the Celestial as he
stopped chewing long enough to remark
"Chinaman likee alice same."-New

She pIdn,t Propose to Him.

One of the late matrimonial engage
ments is said to be the outcome of n dar.
ing little piece of repartee on the part Of
the young woman, who has enjoyed the
reputation Of being not only wit, but a
beauty and belle as well. Although
quite young, she was known TO have de.
clined the honor Of matrimonial alliance
with several Of the best 80 called
"catches" Of the season, and 1t began at
last to be rumored that her mind and
heart were set on one of her admirers
who had not, as yet, the temerity to
come TO the point. However that may
be, the young man in question was her
partner in one Of the Harvard assemblies
during last winter, aud during the inter
mission for supper was seated with her
in sequestered nook, "far from the
madding crowd"
Apropos Of something that had been
said, he asked her laughingly IL the re.
port were true that she had refused all
the eligible men in her set. She blushed
vividly for moment, then suddenly
raised her head, looked him full In the
face and said pointedly, "Yes, 1t is true
present company acceptedr' 1t Is
perhaps, needless 10 state that they re
mained in the "sequestered nook" dur
ing the rest Of the german, and that tn,
young lady wore a sparkling solitaire OF
her left hand within few days. Rumoi
also has It that the above conversation
was overheard by one Of the discarded
suitors, who forthwith "gaye 1t away.

Mrs. LeaVitt's Travels.

The steamship Nevada, of the Guion
line, brought with her Mrs. Mary Glenn
ent Leavitt, of Boston Mrs. Leavitt left
this country eight years ago, with a
steamship ticket in her pocket and a
plentiful supply of faith. She was a
member of the Women's Christian Tenn
perance union, and at the national con-
vention of the organization in 1888 it
was decided to send out world mis-
sionary, Volunteers were asked for, and
Mrs. Leavitt was the first to apply.
She was accepted 1t was understood
that the association would pay all the
expenses of the trip, and before the con-
vention adjourned 81 900 had been sub
scribed She determined not to accept
it. I'm going on Gods mission" she
said, land he will carry me through" +"
She purchased her steamship ticket with
her own money.
Very little has been heard Of her since
she went away. Occasionally a letter
was printed in the organ of the associa-
ton telling of her progress. There was
great rejoicing a month ago when let
ter brought the news that she had near
ly completed her journey and would be
home again. There was mistake about
the date she was to sail, and the only
person who was on the pier to meet her
was Mrs. Mary Towne Burt, the presi-
dent of the Women's Christian union of
this state. She looked, Mrs. Burt said,
just as she looked the day she went
away, and no older, though she is now a
grandmother, one of her three children
whom she left behind having married.
Mrs. Leavitt went to Boston. She
will remain there until October, when
she will come to New York to attend
the national convention. In the eight
years she has been away Mrs. Leavitt
visited the following places: Hawaiian
islands, New Zealand, Australia, Tas
mania, Japan, China, Siam, Straits set
Elements Singapore and Malay penin-
sula), Burmah, Hindostan, Ceylon, Mau-
ritius, Madagascar, Natal, Orange Free
State, Cape Colony, England, Ireland
Scotland, Wales, Congo Free State, Old
Calabar, Sierra Leone, Madeira, Spain,
France, Holland, Norway, Sweden, Fin
land, Denmark, Germany, italy, Greece,
Egypt, Syria and Turkey.
She has organized Sc w. c. T. us,
"a mems temperance societies, mostly in
Japan, India and Madagascar, and 29
branches of the White Cross; has held
over 1000 meetings; has Travelled nearly
100000 miles and has had the services of
229 Interpreters in Al languages. Her
expenses have been paid with money
given to her at the places she visited

Unique Commencement Exercise.

The guests who gathered under the
elms of old Wallingford for the first
commencement of Rosemary hall were
not asked to listen to essays on "The
Pleasures of Memory, THE Progress Of
Women" and like topics, so dear to the
heart Of the graduating school girl They
entered the great dining room Of Hon
William q. Choate's summer residence
to find themselves in Venice-looking on
the Grand canal, with its floating gon.
dolss, and at Shylock's house, with pretty
Jessica leaning from the easement. -Four
scenes from the Merchant Of Venice
were given with much spirit.
Then the guests were invited out Of
doors to see the contest for the silver
mounted whip. Four horses, having on
nothing but halters, stood under the
trees, and the harness lay on the ground
The friends grouped themselves around,
and at the word Start" four daint.ly
gowned girls sprang for the harness.
The excitement was intense as Black
Beauty refused his bit or Joe held bis
head high. The fifth and sixth competi.
tors were given trials as soon as harness
was available. The prize was won in
four minutes and half by Miss Marion

Expensiye Footbaths,

While looking over the latest arrivals
in rubies, sapphires and diamonds in an
up town jewelry store the other day, a
customer was somewhat startled to no.
tice a stylish blond woman ask the
clerk at the counter for silver footbath.
The loiterer watched interestedly the
proceedings which followed, and saw the
clerk emerge from the farther end of the
store with silver bowl, rather oblong
and perhaps ten inches in depth. He
placed it on the counter, and proceeded
to explain the beauties and comfort of it.
"Of course" said he, "they are quite
new as yet, but all the ladies who have
purchased them speak highly of their
convenient uses There, you see, the hot
water faucet is here on the right, and
the cold on the left, and this little para
sol arrangement is the shower bath,
which can be made as forcible as de.
sired"
"Did you say you had sold manyY" in
quired the customer.
ave only received them a week or
two ago, but we have sold goodly num-
ber for that short space of time"
"Have you any other kindT
"Yes; the golden baths.
"Well, don't like gold plate FOR bath
purposes. will take this one."
While her back was turned the OBJ
server took peep at the miniature tub.
It was beauty, and no mistake; all
carved with lilies, ferns and leaves, and
frosted all over. The handles Of the
faucets were Of pearl, and it was not
surprising to hear the clerk name the
price of $100.-New York Continent.
