without any means or directions known
to any one for having the will of the peo-
pie carried out if such amendment shall
receive majority of the votes. For
these reasons, if for no other, the whole
scheme will fall-or rather, it will never
rise.
am aware that L am treading on dan
gerous ground when dealing with consti-
tutlonal questions; for everyone knows
that all members of the Legislature and
all professional politicians are ear 0ffcio
constitutional lawyers; but 1 will risk
this effort, and trust it will call the atten-
ton of the friends of Sacramento to the
fact that There is blood an this" and that
nothing but the application of earnest
thought and work on the merits of the
case will accomplish anything.

Policy to Be Pursued by Secretary of
the Treasury Carlisle.
WASHINGTON, March 15.-Secretary
Carlisle to-day made the first enunciatlon
of the policy that will govern his action
in the matter of appointments in the
lighthouse and life-saving service. The
announcement was made in connectio /,
with two applications for positions in the
lighthouse service. The Secretary writes:
sit has been the uniform custom for
many years to regard the Lighthouse es-
tablishment as a non-partisan service.
1t is my intention to continue the custom.
No light-keeper will be disturbed by me
in his official position merely because of
his political opinions"

Character In Dogs Tails.

There is character in dogs tails--in
fact. nearly as much as there il in their
heads A very curly tail, like q pigs,
rneans Shat the dog is not of the finest
nature. Either it belongs to q SUE or one
of the stupid breeds, but the curly tail Is
generally an index to good nature. A
crescent-shaped tail is a different thing.
If it is very tspering it means pluck and
intelligence and is usually a sign to show
that you had better be introduced before
you take liberties with its owner. II it is
thick and carried down it means in-
ferioritY, and either a msan dog or one
that has lost all ~self-respect from bad
treatment. A dog, by the way, thinks
his life has been a failure unless he has
fine quarters, plenty to eat and nothing
to do. They have t'great heads" as the
saying is. - Washington Star.

Dogs and Their Tails.

DR.. Louis Robinson, the lngeniou:
man of science who experimental with
babies in a London workhouse in order to
prove their descent from monkeys, has a
very interesting article in the Coutem.
porary Review entitled "Canine Morals
and Manners" It practically comes to
this, that the dog speaks with its tail
tip.
DR.. Robson says: s'In the case of
all hunting dogs, such as foxhounds, or
wolves which pack together, the tail is
carried aloft, and is very free in move
ment. 1t is also frequently rendered
more conspicuous by the tip being white,
and this is almost invariably the case
when the hounds are of mixed color.
When ranging the long grass of the
prairie or jungle the raised tips of the
tails would often be all that an individ.
ual member of the land would see of his
fellows. There is no doubt that hounds
habitually watch the tails of those in
front of them when drawing a covert.
If a faint drag is detected suggestive of
the presence of a fox, but scarcely suf-
ficient to be sworn to vocally, the tail of
the finder is at nee set in motion, and
the warmer the scent the quicker does it
wag. Others seeing the signal instantly
join the first, and there is an assemblage
of waving tails before even the least
whimper is heard. Should the drag
prove a doubtful one the hounds separ.
ate again, and the waving ceases, but if
it grows stronger when followed Up, the
wagging becomes more and more en-
phatic, until one after another the hounds
begin to whine and give tongue and
stream off in Indian file along the line
of scent. When the pack is at full cry
upon a strong scent the tails cease to
wave, but are carried aloft in full vlew."
The moment when the dog most en-.
joys life is the moment when he sights
game. That moment is the time that he
wags his tail most vigorously, in order
to announce his discovery to his fellow
dogs. In this way, by the habit of as
ISOLATION, he got to wsgging his tail
whenever he was pleased, and the more
pleased he is the more vigorously he
wags his tail, so that the wagging of the
dogs tail, under the influence OF pleasure.
BILE emotion, can be traced directly to
the time when the dog used his tail as a
of the discovery of his prey

H DAY.

- - -@
A breath of summer lingering in the air,
But yet a thought Of winter in the
breeze;
A fragile blossom bursting here and
there,
The drowsy buzzing of an insects wing,
The sound Of roaring river far away.
4 climbing vine to which white bawers
cling
Answer my soul, is this the perfect day?l
a Held all orliiauU wlthgay goldenrod,
A woodland gorgeous in a thousand hues,
A breezeless stiffness DER the deadish sod,
The hiil-lins lost in streaks of endless
blues.
A little fern-enwreathed brooklet singing
by, --
AND over all soft clouds, like lambs astray,
Scarce move across a lilac-golden sky.
All! heart of mine, is this the perfect days
A heart withdrawing to anotherss beat
Two eyes which speak a million tender
things
A touch of lips against blushing cheek,
A murmer of half-5roken whisperings.
The ecstacy OF love, by love uncrowned;
The gentle fading Of the world away.
The loss of time and space and grief and
sound
This, 0, my soull this is the purfect day.

"One of the quaerest RAILROADS any.
where in the country" said Rev. D. $.
Banks, of North Ontario, isis a novel
line that run from South Ontario up to
North Ontario, in San Bernardino Coun-
ty, California, where / live. The line is
seven miles long. A span of stout
mules draw the car up over the road.
There is nothing singular about that, but
it comes in on the return trip.
"The seven miles are on a tilt all the
way, although the track doss not look
like it. So when the car starts back
the mules get on and take a ride, the
car booming over the whole line by
gravity. The mules enjoy it, too.
They ride there in as self satisfied a way
as any other passengers, and the view
seems equally as charming. North On.
tario, you may know, is situated at the
mouth of San Antonio canyop5 but there
are lot of magnificent mountains around
there. One colony, for they can scarce
ly be called towns, is situated on the
Santa Fe road and the other on
the Southern Pacific. Il is the
seven miles of street railway that con.
meet the two.
ssThe way they get the mules aboard
is this: There is a little truck under
the car, and it is pulled out, becoming
an adjunct to the regular passenger de.
pertinent. The moment the truck is
slid out the intelligent animals make a
start for 1t and step up and on. It is
extremely amusing the way they do it,
and the way they enjoy this ride, and
they are great favorites with the people"
