Ouaar Renuasta.

Some queer bequests have been
made in favor of pets. Abol eighty
years ago elizabeth Orby Hunter of
Upper Seymour street, widow" gave
to her parrot which she described as
her faithful companion of twenty
five years, an annuity of 2o0 ggi9sas
te be paid half.Yaarly as long as il
should live to whoever may have the
care of it and proves its identity. !"
Elaborate provisions were made for
the welfare OF the parrot, guardian
being appointed to insure its comfort.
In another case OF an annuity to pro-
vide for parrot the question was
eventually raised whether the annuity
was to be continued during the life of
the old woman to whom the money
was left for this specifi. purpose, or
whether it ceased with the existence
of the bird. The question was settled
In favor Of the woman.

Dogs Can't stand Violin Mu ,Io.

Dogs are sensible to the efre,ts of
music to certain degree, jast as SER
pents are said to be 1t is not fact
that dogs howl and whine when they
hear music, and it is certain that they
cannot distinguish COOL music from
bad. The average dog will howl at
violin, whether played by his nastee
or a stranger by an expert or an inex-
pert. He howls at most instruments
that can be carried in the hand, and that
is probably the secret A dog will lie
perfectly unconcernel when parlor
organ for melodeon is being played
with all the stops out. 1t is the
same with piano; he will sleep
while tho instrument is responding
to fortissimo passages But violin,
q cornet or an cordion is more than he
can beaF.

THIS rs a DEFENSE!
LdurensraNe Herald.

The cock and-bul story published
in the newspapers of The State ana
teiegraphed all over the country from
Colnmtia to the effect that Senator
hbv arrived in that city the other
morning on his way home from Wash
ineton in beastly stale ofintoxication,
and that he drew his pistol on the
hack-drivers, ETC., is dou otless choice
piece of reading for Senator 1rbE's
personal enemies and lGrye majority
OF the Ants. ladeed, they have been
ii al exceeding high state of glee in
this city ever since they received such
welcome news. II is OF very little
concern 10 them whether the facts as
Published are true or not, since 1t has
afforded them all excuse for abusing
Irby and All opportunity for saying,
"I told YOU So" Senator Irby was
out Of town Yesterday and we have
not had Il e opportunity Of seeing him,
but we believe the accusation is false
at least as 10 the Senator's arriving
and leaving Columbia i'll drunken
condition. But does anybody believe
that the sensational report sent out
about Senator lrby's alleged escapade
was because OF any honest and sincere
public sentiment against whiskey drink
ing on the part of our public men?
No; if there is any grounds whatever
for the charges preferred against
Senator Irby it was simply this pre-
text which afforded the anti press and
Senator lrby's political enemies the
convicted opportunity of injuring him
politically. AS we have said above
we don't believe the report, bur even
if it were true, is there any more sin
or shame attached to Senator 1rby's
drinking whiske5 or his alleged
drunken condition in Columbia the
other day than the drinking ofwbiskey
and occasional boozei of many others
of our public men? Tie drinking of
whi.key does not seem to have branded
many OF our representative men in the
past, or to have rendered them odious
in the eyes of the very class who now
see such disgrace and shame in the
unfortunate taste for the cup when
Senator Irby is the object Of their
political hatred.
Senator Irby's predecessor, we be-
lieve, has, always drank whiskey, and
it is very sins ular exception that we
fnd a man who INDUCES at ali that
does not some time or other succumv
to a too free indulgence Of his, appe-
tite. If the charge OF drunkenness
against Senator Irby were true VIC
don't think it hardly fair to mention !
the MONIES of MANY thcr public men
who have been whiskey drinkers and
who doubtless still tarrv at the wine
cup, in extenuation Of Senator Irby's
fault, if the charge be true. Bus his
well-known reputation for truthtulness

THE majority in the Senate should
force a vote on the repeal bill in some
way. Cloture is hardly advisable, if
al other and less extreme measure Is
possible, but if this isnet possible. then
let it be cloture. We must not~t-se,el
how well this same ins5iIity to stop
debate stood the minority during the
debate On !t.ffe Force Bill. Still if the
: >>zGsew Senators insist upon wearing out
the country and themselves with their
tiresome talk and delaying indefinitely
the accomplishment of the purpose for
which Congress was assembled then
extreme measures must be adopted.
1t now appears that Stewart and one
or two other fanatics who really knew
title about and cares less for "sena-
torial courtesy" Keep up this effort
to delay vote. The Democratic party
is going to suffer for these delays,
WA prompt action is what is de-
manded of them. IN both houses
they have control. Let them use it,
and at once. If there is possibility
for milder course, cloture should not
be applied. If not let them apply it
at once.

business men Of the place, VIZ, W. H.:
Ruff, G. P. Wray, W. 3. Hogan, and

We certainly congratulate the parents
and children in having secured the
services of al experienced teacher and
a worthy and full qualified assistant.

months. So mote it be. Prof. Sea-

and with No. school, the town Will
of course increase in population, pro,
vided the owners of real estate Will
dispose of building lots at reasonable
figures, or if unwilling to sell, Will
erect buildings for rent, and rent at
reasonable rates. There is a tendency
anyway to leave the country and move
to the towns, in order that the children
NAV have the advantage of ten months
schooling, instead of three, which as a
general rue the country children have

knows, amounts to almost nothing
