EVERY effort is being put forth by
this government to guard against any
possibility of visit from the cholera.
The latest move is the organization by
Surgeon General Wyman, of the marine
hospital, of special corps of 600 medi-
cal immigrant inspectors. The disease
has gained slight hold in Naples and
as a goodly number of our immigrants
are from the shores of sunny Italy, it is
a wise precaution on the part of the Off
cials to take no chances.

From the Romans.

"Put your right foot foremost" is a
piece of advice that has been offered to
most folk, young and old, in the course
of their lives. 1t is generally equiva-
lent to saying, News your chance; do
your very best and show what you are
capable Of" Like a great many COM
mon phrases this expression has an old
origin. In the days of ancient Rome,
when people were usually the slaves Of
some superstition or other, it was
thought to be unlucky to cross the
threshold of house with the left foot
first. Consequently boy was placed at
the door of the mansion to remind Wis
itors that they were to put their right
foot foremost. The use of the phrase in
the wider sense soon became obvious

A Mud Covered Forest.

There is a sunken forest of white cedar
on the coast of New Jersey which has been
continuously mined" for its valuable
timber for more than eighty years. The
curious industry of digging for these sunk
en- logs is carried on by people of Dennis
vile, village which was brought into
existence solely through the wealth of the
buried timber in it's vicinity. Over this
large forest trees of large size are now
growing, and in many instances the grow
ing timber is cut away in order to get at
the more valuable logs which lie only three
or four feet beneath the surface. 1t is be-
lieved that they were sunk by an earth

MONTANA LEGISLATURE.

The Balance of Power in the Hands of
One PopuIist Representative.
HELENA, Mont, Jan. 6. Doth houses

The most important business done this
morning was the appointment of the
house committee on elections to CON
slider the contest of the seat from
Choteau county. This committee con-
sists of an equal number of Democrats
and Republicans, and one Populist,
Beecher, who is chairman. Beecher
heretofore has acted with the Demo-
Gratis. The committee is expected to
report on Monday, when no doubt there
will be fight over it's decision. Should
it seat Hamilton it would give the
Democrats control of both houses with

Sn,erstitinrs of snilors.

Many years ago, when sailing vessels
were the only means of communication be-
tween the different countries, superstition
was more rife among sailors than at the
present time These absurd fancies were
not confined to Jack alone, but they were
shared in to greater or less extent by
shipmasters and owners. Friday was con.
sidered day of evil, and the most malig-
nant results were supposed to attend a
voyage commenced on this day of the
week. In those days he would indeed have
been reckes skipper who would have
attempted to sail on this i'll omened day,
for the crew would have broken out in
open rebellion rather than lift the anchor
from the bottom or cast off shore moorings.
Since the advent of steam many of these
prejudices have become as derelict as the
ships on which they were once entertained.

YVES conxerted and Paid Che o1d Bet.


Ten years ago Allen Talmadge was
staying in Indianapolis. He got into an
argument with man and made bet OF
five dollars ON the point in dispute. Mr..
Talmadge proved to be wrong and paid
the five dollars. Afterward they got to
arguing which was the longest river in
the world, and Mr.. Talmadge found out
that his river was the longest and went
to the man for his money, but he re-
fused to pay it. Mr.. Talmadge abused
him for taking his money and refusing
to pay when he had honestly lost it.
Mr.. Talmadge moved back to Georgia,
and about week or twoago got a letter
from the man asking for his address, as
he had little matter of business with
him. The address was sent, and Friday
letter came inclosing check on New
York for five dollars, and saying that
he had been converted and thought it
right to send the amount of the bet made
ten years ago.-Athens (Ga.) Banner.

DEADLOCK BROKEN.

Correll, Republican, Elected President
of the Nebraska Senate.
LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 6.-The deadlock
in the senate was broken this morning
by the election of Correll, Republican,
president, four out of five Democrats
voting for him.
The anti-monopoly senators voted for
him on the promise that they would be
given control of the railroad and other
leading committees. They stipulated,
however, in case the combine failed to
carry out its promises, that they would
join the Independents when it came to
the election OF a United States senator.
So the situation remains almost as COM
plicated as before.

vanderbeck Says None But He Shall
Manage the Angels.
San FRANCISCO, Jan. 6.-The Post to-
day says: Mr.. Vanderbeck, the gentle
man who managed the Los Angeles club
last year, is now in this city and may
possibly attend the meeting of the
league managers set for this week. Van
derbeck said yesterday that he will be
at the Los Angeles club next season or
there will! be no league baseball in the
southern city. If the Los Angeles Ath-
letic association gives the ground to
another party, Vanderbeck proposes
to get out writ of Injunction
against the new manager. He
states that the terms of his lease are
very clear, and there ia no question as
to his right to the ball grounds for 1898.
His attorneys have told him he will
have a good case against the athletic
association if they insist upon depriving
him of the use of the bali park. Van
derbeck says he will be in baseball again
this year. If he does not remain in Los
Angeles he will manage team in some
other city.
