The woman suffrage women have arrived
at the story telling period, which Is OF IL
self significant as showing that the hurry
burly righteous indignation period Is past.
Their stories are about the absurdlties OF
legislators and their deliberations. These
they tell fguratlvely lying back In their
chairs with thumbs In their vest pockets.
A group of Massachusetts women set ont
10 memorabilia the Legislature on the sub
ject dearest to their heart. The legislature
replied that 1t WAS too occupied with press
ing affairs TO give attention TO this suDJect
The question then before the house was
whether fish should be caught with seine
or with hook. Three days were given for
a discussion of one side and three days Tor
a discussion Of the other side OF this ques-
ton. At length, after weeks debate, the
question came TO a decision, and II was re-
solved that fish should be caught with a
seine and with hook.
At another time some questions peril
nent TO the protection OF young girls was
prominent, and the same group OF women,
who appear to sleep with one eye open on
the Massachusetts, legislature, were ready
to fling themselves upon that body when
the legislature took up the subject OF lob
sters. The destruction of the young imma-
ture lobster was argued with as much pa
thos as that Of the young seals off Pribyiov
islands. At length it was decided that for
the protection of the immature lobster in
its natural rights only Holsters of certain
length could be legally sold in the state OF
Massachusetts,, and the legislature adj
iourned. The result Of this legislation was
that all the succulent, tender Holsters were
sent to New York. and Massachusetts, ate
what was left.-Sew York Evening sun.

A Practical Caution.

Mr.. Paul Noght, a deputy county
assessor for Louis HUH, Jr., is in
the city. He resides at Van Raub
and has considerable pasturage
there. In conversation with a
LIGHT man Mr.. Voght said: "The
drought on my place is awful, for
there has been no rain since May,
and everything is burned up. l
ought to have plenty of grass for
my stock, but am now feeding, a
thing that l ordinarily do in No
vember."
This is not solitary instance of
the kind, and yet to make ship
ments abroad at good prices feed
is being bought up all around. If
this is done to an exhaustive eX-
tent, as is probable, what will our
own cattle do?
