The reason the Sicilian farmers live in
villages instead of on the farms they
till is found in a curious survival Of a
medieval law. Under that law tillers
OF the soil We're not allowed to live upon
the lands they farnied, but were hud-
died together in villages, possibly SO
they could thereby be more easily watch
ed and kept from Instruction. Sicilian
farmers have maintained the ancient
system from choice apparently. Me-
diseval customs are found in Sicily more
frequently than in any other part of Eu-
rope. The octroi itself would not have
been submitted to so long If the Sicilian
peasants had been as intelligent as the
rural population elsewhere. By the me-
di@val custom under which the octroi
was levied cities imposed a tax on all
food products brought into their gates
This tax went not to the national gov
eminent, but to defraying the expenses
OF the city government itself It inn
poses q double tax on the wretched peas
ant. He pays taxes ON the land outside
the city. Then when he brings food for
his own use to his home in the village
he is met at the city line By the octroi
collector, " ho levies on every bushel of
potatoes the farmer consumes IN his own
family Worst of all, the collectors are
bribed b. the rich, it is said, to let them
OF comp ratively free, and pluck the
poor who cannot help themselves. On
the whole, it is no wonder the Sicilians
revolted. 81

That Big Meteor,

If it was not duly recorded on a ships
log, one would be inclined to class the
tale told by the captain and first officer
OF the steamer Yemassee with the sea
serpent yarns. But there it stands in
the Yemassee's logbook-the brief note
that Dec. 20, Is miles south of Charles
ton bar, 40 minutes past in the morn
ing, the captain and his first officer saw
''an immense meteor" The meteor last
cd entire for 10 minutes, bearing east in
a straight line; then for 10 minutes more
it wabbled zigzag and at the end Of that
time burst into a hundred fragments,
more or less. 1t took 10 minutes for the
fragments to be used up and disappear,
so that the whole phenomenon lasted
half an hour. Both the officers vouch
for this. The Yemassee is ship making
trips between New York and Charleston.
There is only one point Of disagree
ment between the two men about this
monstrous meteor--if it was one. The
first officer stakes his reputation for We
racity on the size Of the thing being equal
to at least that of six moons. It must
have been as broad as the 80 ton Canadi-
IN cheese at the Worlds fair. The cap
tain is more moderate in his estimate of
the size and falls one moon. He says it
was as large as five moons. Further
more, the FIRST officer says its rays burned
like those Of the hot sun. The fragments
after it had burst looked like fireballs.
Here now is a nut for science to crack.
Perhaps the phenomenon which the two
sea1nen supposed to be a meteor was an
electrical appearance. =

from the statute books. May God help
the poor this winter, for if the thinkers
keep on nothing of human ability can
avert unheard of suffering, aud no man
can see what direful consequences may
ensue. We are in the tolls of the enc
mics of the people, and it seems that

The board of directors Of the
Northern Pacific Railroad COM
pany are making savage attack
OH the receivers, and declare that
the faulty management that bank
rupted the road is following the
same general policy still. The
condition Of affairs in the North
ern Pacific appear very peculiar.
Certainly; increase the national
debt, impose an income tax, and
carry on the whole governm emit
as though way expenses were be-
ing met. Thirty years ago the
nation (undcr Republican rtlc)
had to issue bonds and levy al IN
come tax, and the Democrats
seem to think it was those acts
that gave it such a strong hold on
the people. But new bonds and
an income tax IN times Of peace!
Several factories started up
last week in different parts of tho
country, but wages averaged
about 20 PR cent. lower than
when they shut down. It will be
interesting to see just how low
wages viii get under this admins
tration. The thousands Of idle
men in the cities can reflect that
lack Of employment does not mean
as great loss to them in 1894 as it
would have meant in 1892, The
high wages paid then made
days work the greatest
value it ever had been, and
reduction toward the standard
Of good old Drmor ratio times has
only just begun. Considering the
reduction in wages and the III.
creased idlcneSs it is doubtful if
the total earnings ofmcn employed
in mills and factories in the
United States in 1894 will be two
thirds Of what it was in 1892. A
change in administration is often
desired, but the longing for it was
never bctor" so prevalent IN this
country as it is today; and like the
reductions in wages it is rather
certain to continue for about
three years.
