The Effects of the Increases in the APP
preparations.
The week of the General Assembly has
been comprised in three days, and most
of the active work was done in one day
Friday.
The settlement Of the doubts about the
General Assembly's authority, to create
corporations has set The mill TO grind
ing. and the number of corporations
seeking charters or asking for amend
ments has kept the corporation commit
tee busy.
Down in Warwick the Warwick eiec-
trio railroad, the Coweset railroad and
the Coventry Electric Light Company's
charters are of great interest. The bills
have all passed either one or the other
branch of the Legislature. an been re-
ceived without opposition by the mem
bers
There was much gossip in regard to
the suppre ssed antagonism OF Senator
Laphatn and some other prominent men
in his district, aud that tue ceiling would
develop an opposition to the road to
Coweset Bay. Thus far the rumor has
been without oniirmation. Mr.. Lapham
wants the road for his own uses and
those or the neighboring villages, and
there is no sign of politics in it.
The bill for the appropriation OF $1,000
for the dedication of the Sed swick Me-
moriai Hall WAS the first gun of attack
fired at the states treasury. 1t was fol-
lon ed the same day with the general ap
preparation bill.
There were few changes made from
last year, but the ostimportant one was
that of an increase in the appropriations
for the state institutions OF $500
This question is likely 10 meet with
some discussion in the Senate. Last year
il seems that the state board Of charities
aud corrections used about $4,000 more
than was appropriated.
There are some tinanciers and tax
PAYERS who would like TO understand the
states methods of bookkeeping when an
appropriation can be overrum and the
General Assembly asked to make good
the deficit without some act OF special
legislation.
The question is not unlikely to develop
into general criticism of the tax and
sumptuous methods which are now pur-
sued in regard to the treatment of many
of the inmates OF some of the depart
ments of the state institutions.
The state has palatial buildings for its
objects of charity and spends 500 coo Of
the tax-payers' money In maintaining
the institutions AMI the ease with which
this appropriation has grown during the
past few years may be called to the at
tention OF the General Assembly.

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-This has been one
of the most active weeks that Wall street

he made the statement, that dollar
went farther then than it does now."
That's old, but here is one about Mr..
Evarts which has never been in print.
He was invited at one time to a dinner
at the house of rich manufacturer in
Boston, who proved at dinner TO be
pompous old bore. Whenever any of
the distinguished gentry ventured re-
mark, this man would break in with
his exasperating drawl: "As once said
to Daniel Webster" or 'when / was
with Charles Sumner at"
Evarts stood ii as long as he could
After dinner in the smoking-room, he
turned upon his tormentor with the re-
mark: "You do yourself great in
justice, sir"
How SOP" demanded the man, taken
aback.
''Why," said Mr.. Evarts, deliberately,
twiddling his eyeglass, as was his GUS
tom, "you have been modestly relating
to us these interesting "reminiscences of
our great departed when everyone
knows that there have been in your ex-
perience events of far more historical
weight--as that, for instance, when
Columbus neaYed our coast it was the
voice of Mr.. - that guided him on his
course with these immortal words:
'Neau, Mr.. Columbus Initiating the
old mans drawD, II you'll on'y pint
her head right over that way, you'll
make land all right"
This was not humor. It was wit
the caustic kind that stings. Probably
there was provocation. 1t was this
same Boston merchant whose peculiar
tiles were the butt Of many merry
tale. A boy was seen crying on Wash
ington street one day.
"What's the matter?" said . good
natured man.
"My cents fallen down there" said
the sniveling boy, pointing through a
grating.
''Oh, that's nothing. Just run in and
tell Mr.. -. He'll climb down and get
it,"
"Yes, he will" sobbed the boy, with
fresh outburst OF grief. "B-b-but
he'd keep IL for himself"
