JEFFERSON CITY JOTTINGS.
The Member From Audrain Voted
Fer the Separate Coach Bill.

Correspondence Of the Ledger.
JEFFERSON CRY, Feb. 13.-The
advocates of the separate compart-
ment car bill for negroes were sur
prised and disguised last Friday
night when the bill was defeated for
engrossment. Only 16 voted aye
while "a voted no. The member
from Audrain was one of the Is.
The Senate adjourned Friday till
this afternoon when they met and
adjourned until tomorrow without
transacting any business of import
anee. They don't seem to do as
much work in the upper branch OF
turn off work faster, can't say
which.
Senator Stark is at home at the
bedside of his sick daughter, who is
not expected to live.
Mabrey's bill to make express
companies common carriers and
regulating their charges passed the
House and now coca to the Senate
where it is expected to have a hard
time if it goes through.
The grocer's punishment bill re-
ceived a death stroke by being post
poned indefinitely. It's amusing to
see the members leave their seats
when the roll is being called and
then come in and land on the
popular side when the vote is cor
rected. QUID NUNc.

C%ANNIBALisM AT SEA.
Starring sailors slraagie and Devoar
acomrade.

HAMBURG, Feb. f3.-The three
seamen from the Norwegian ship
Thekla, who were rescued and were
landed here yesterday by the Dam
ish bark Herman, were crazed by
their sufferings in the rigging OF the
laundering vessel, Two of them
recovered sufficiently to-day to tell
the story Of the Thekla's voyage.
She was in heavy weather, they
say, from Dec. 2, when she left
Philadelphia, The decks were food
ed almost constantly, deck houses
and rails were swept away and the
steering apparatus was broken.
When it was found that there was
no hope of bringing the ship into
port the master, mate and eight sea-
men got away in a boat, The other
boats got smashed by the waves be-
fore they could be lowered.
Nine men were obliged to remain
in the rigging, They were unable
to get food from below, and five Of
them, made insane by exposure
and privation, jumped overheard,
The other four remained on board
from Dec. %. till Jan. z, the day
OF the rescue.
On the thirteenth day lots were
drawn to determine which one of the
four should be killed and eaten,
The lot fell twice in succession to q
Dutch sailor, and he was strangled
and devoured raw by the Other
three. The only drinking water the
seamen got was the dew they licked
from the ropes.

Special days are to be a great
feature at the Worlds Fair. Nearly,
if not quite every state of the Union
will have its day, upon which special
exercises will be held, and its gov
ernor and staff, other state officers,
militia and thousands of its distin-
guished and other citizens will be in
attendance. Receptions will be
held at the state buildings, respect
lively, and the governors and others
will make speeches. Many must
cal, civic and secret societies also
have made application for a special
day upon which to hold exercises Pc
culiar to themselves. Among them
are the Masons, Odd Fellows,
Knights of Pythias and Foresters.
The Welsh Eistedfodd will have an
entire week for a musical celebra-
ton. 1t is believed that these spec
ial features will draw many addl-
tional thousands OF visitors to the
Fair. Arrangements for these spec
ial days are being made by Col
Culp, secretary of the Ceremonies
Committee, which had the Dedica-
ton Day exercises in charge.

Legislative trouble here between
the Populists and the Republicans
reached d climax to-day. The Pop
ulist house barred the doors against
the Republicans, who forced an en-
trance by means of sledge-hammers,
after fighting their way through a
line of armed guards posted to keep
them out.
Gov. Lewelllng has called out the
State Militia to eject the Republi-
can members from the State House
and a riot is considered imminent.
The Populists have assumed the
defensive. They take the position
that the Republican House has no
authority, that it is in law a mob,
and that its officers and employees
have no authority to make any ar
rest. A serious state of affairs ex-
lists and both sides are desperate.

We are surprisedto notice that the
Missouri Legislature is not in favor of
the history of Missouri being studied
in our public shoots. TheLegislature
appears not only not to be in favor of
such a text book but actually excludes
any history of Missouri from our
schools. Latin, Astronomy, Geom-
etry, etc., may be taught but Mis-
souri, history must be left off the
curriculum. What does this mean2
Is the history of Missouri a disgrace
to the State that we do not want our
children to study it? Thirteen states
have their own history as a part of
the school course and we trust that
Missouri will soon be in line. We
certainly do not understand why the
Legislature of the state should brand
our history as unworthy of a place
in our schools. We sincerely trust
that at least our senator and repre-
sentative will put themselves in favor
of the schools of the state being all
lowed to have histories among the
studies laid down in the regular
course

The very young are quite as anxi-
Gus to be old, as the very old are to
be young.
There's beeswax sometimes in the
honey of a kiss.
There's many a slip twixt the
cup and the next morning.
The most beautiful face in the
world will not justify the owner in
devoting all her thought to it.
God made woman, but He didn't
make her a fashionable woman.

Happiness is in the quality Of

Good food is one of the domestic

Bob INGERsoLL closed a long ora
ton on Abraham Lincoln with the
following eulogy:-
"Wealth could not purchase,
power could not awe this divine,
this loving man.
"He knew no fear except that of
doing wrong. Hating slavery, pity
ing the master-seeking to conquer,
not persons but preiudiees-he was
the embodiment of the self-denial,
the courage, the hope and the no.
bility OF a nation.
"He spoke not TO infiame, not to
upbraid, but to convince.
.sHe raised his hands not to strike,
but in benediction.
"He longed to pardon.
"He loved to see the pearls of Joy
on the cheeks Of a wife whose
husband he had rescued from death.
Lincoln was the grandest figure of
the 6ercest civil war. He is the
gentlest memory of our world"

Has Agreeable Recolleetions of Grin

VliucSs
Ward McAllister said: Crinoline
has many good points. 1t is, above
all, modest. 1t conceals the figure
from the waist down, and only the
bust can be. offered for public in
spection. The fiction that Ameri-
can young ladies have no legs may
be revived, if you like to put it that
way. We must, at least, take their
possessions in this direction on trust.
When | say that the erinoline will
be an ally to modesty l express the
sentiments Of a great many elderly
men and women who have been
shocked by the tight fitting skirts
which some of our young women
wear in the streets. The next point
in favor of the erinoline is that it
makes the waist look small without
necessitating the tight laeing. It is
therefore graceful and modest. To
talk about it as a nightmare and
a hideous ~excrescense is none
sense / have a very agree
able recollection of the crino-
lines in my younger days. When
l said that the crinoline would be
modest, you understand, I had not
forgotten accidents which used to
happen in boisterous weather. But
these will not occur with well made
crinolines, because they viii be
weighted down so that the heaviest
gale will not cause embarrassment.
