tionists bent on overthrowing the tenn
porai power OF the Popes and the Papal
Government, which relied for its support
mainly upon French, Austrian and Bel
gian bayonets.
After all the preliminaries were ar
ranged for the marriage of Crispi's
daughter to the Prince Of Lirgua Glossa,
the grandmother of the prince, accept
ii g the connection as in. all other re-
spvcts satisfactory, urged upon her
grandson and his betrothed the import
ance OF inducing Signor Crispi to go
through the ceremony of religious mar
riage with his wife, for the simple rea
son that among the formalities attending
the marriage Of her grandson to his be
trothed it would be necessary that an
swers should be made as to her parents,
and that the civil ceremony which had
made Signor Crlspi and his wife legally
one had not been and could not be rec
ognized by the authorities of the Church
as an adequate recognition of the mar
riage tie, which to Catholics is sacra-
ment.
The acquiescence of Signor Crispi in
the wish thus expressed by the grand
mother of her intended eon-in-law is q
proof therefore simply of his warm and
tender love of bis daughter, and is SO re-
garded by all who really know the man
and understand him intimately. 1t is in
no proper sense an expression of any
change, either in his religious or in his
political opinions, though there can, of
course, be no doubt that it will crafty

incline them to more favorable opinion

informed Italians believe, italian con

has certainly now become of grave inn

AN EMPEROR AT The PLow.
Curious Rites Performed by the Ruler of
China at Certain Intervals.

Curious Rites Performed by the Ruler of
China at Certain Intervals.
In order to emphasize the Importance
of the cultivation of the soil and to
encourage his subjects to follow agri-
cultural pursuits, the emperor of China
sometimes performs certain rites at
the ssemperor's field and goes through
the form of plowing and other work of
the husbandman- One day recently,
says the n. A. q. Cable, the emperor
set out at daybreak from his palace,
with a numerous and magnificent train
of courtiers and others. Before break
fast the emperor arrived at the shrines
of the deity presiding over agriculture,
and his majesty stopped to offer up his
Thanksgiving and sacrifices. After
changing his dress the morning repast
was served, at the end of which the
emperor proceeded to the field, at the
four corners of which were erected
four pavilions where the seeds of
wheat and other cereals were placed.
In the center were numbers of mag
niicently attired courtiers, each hold
ing aloft many-colored flag, while on
the side of the passage were scores
of aged and white-haired farmers,
each having in his hand some agri-
cultural implement. Placing his left
hand on the plow and holding the
whip in his right hand, the emperor
began the ceremony of the occa sion.
By prearrangement the officers did
their allotted share, some welding the
agricultural implements, while others
scattered seeds out of the baskets as if
sowing. while the emperor was busted
with the plow which was hitched to
richly caparisoned bullock, draped in
yellow and led by two of the emperor's
bodyguards. On the emperor finishing
his round at the plow the three princes
were ordered to go through the per-
formance, and after them nine high
courtiers had their turn, after which
the performance closed. Having re-
ceived the greeting of his officers the
emperor returned to his palace.

''Did you ever see pack of coyotes
a-rustlin' for grub?'' asked an old miner
of a reporter of the Moreno (Cal.) In
dicator. 1--we lived on the desert for
nigh onto thirty years." he resumed,
''and seed many a queer sight, but coy

their regular diet of jerked rabbit
meat. The avant-couriers sniff around
among the sagebush and greaseweed,
while the rest of the band form into. a
big circle, sometimes spreadin' out on
the plain over a radius of two or three
miles. The couriers head a jack rabbit
in the circle and the coyote nearest

''You know jack-rabbit can run ten

sheepblades in shearin' time. Then
when the jack is disposed of another

The Presidents Rights In congress-.

The Presldent's Rights In Congress.
The president of the United States
has no personal rights in the house of
Representatives, says the Washington
Post. He can send it messages, but it
is not obliged to extend any courtesies
in the way of quarters on the floor.
No doubt he would be courteously
treated if he should come, but he never
has come during the regular legisla-
tive sessions and probably never will.
But in the senate it is different. The
relations between the president and
the upper chamber are close and con-
hdential 1t passes upon his nomina-
tions, and can be very agreeable or
disagreeable if it sets out. There is a
presidents room there, and he has a
right to come into the chamber and
deliver his message in person if he
sees fit President Madison appeared
in the senate frequently. During ex-
ecutive ,usessions there is chair for
the president beside the vice presi-
dents, though it does not get warmed
with any frequency. It is one of the
traditions of the senate that the presi-
dent has right to take possession of
the vice presidents chair while he is
delivering a message but no president
has ever availed himself of the right.
and that small boon, is still left the
second officer of the government.

There are nearly 1000 patients in the
asylum at Salem, which is very large
average for the state, if all are insane
The institution is the most expensive of
anything else in the state by far, and is
rapidly growing more SO. There is
surely chance for retrenchment some
where. There are probably inmates
who cannot properly be called insane,
like Ed. Gibson, who was sent to be
cured of the morphine habit. Gibson's
place is in a reformatory or Kelley in
stitute. There are other inmates being
cared for at state expense who have a
great deal of property in their own
right. One in mind has fortune of
$4,000. The state law provides that the
expense of the charge shall be borne by
the person if able to pay. Again, ply
sicians frequently take pleasant trip to
the asylum, for no apparent use, and
are allowed mileage and fees. There
should be a reform in asylum matters,
commenced by the secretary of state.

HIS CLIENT Was GUILTY.

An Indiana Lawyers Discovery After Se-
curing Counterfeiter's Acquittal.
Several years ago, when Judge
Francis ]. Reinhard, the wel1-known
German lawyer of Indianapolis, was a
young but enthusiastic attorney
practicing at Crown Point, says the
Indianapolis Sentinel, he was called in
to defend man charged with circu-
lating counterfeit money. He talked
with the accused several times in jail
and became impressed with the idea
that the man was honest and was
literally being outraged by the
authorities. Mr.. Reinhard entered
into the case with characteristic earn
estness and prepared himself thorough
ly to make the defense. When the
case came to preliminary hearing the
lawyer made terrific fight and Sc
cured the discharge of his client. Out
side the courtroom, after the trial, the
client buttonholed Lawyer Reinhard
and, leading him into an alley out Of
sight of the gaping crowd. paid him
his fee with ten silver dollars. Then
with tears in his eyes he thanked the
lawyer and went his way. Mr.. Rein
hard Immediately proceeded to the
Office of a friend to WI ON he owed a
debt of sixty-five cents and rendered
one of his newly-made dollars.
''Say, Frank said the friend, after
an investigation of the money, ssthis
dollar is counterfeit"
you're certainly mistaken" replied
Lawyer Reinhard, ''I just took it as
part of fee from man whom am
confident is honest and perfectly relia-
BILE. 1 am not easily mistaken in my
estimate of the character of my clients"
''That may all be so,'' replied the
friend; "but this money is spurious
just the same, and to prove it we will
just go over to the bank
Thereupon the gentlemen went to
the bank, not far away, and laid down
the dollar, asking for change. The
teller, an elderly and conservative
man, adjusted a monocle to his eye,
gazed long and earnestly at the coin
and then showed it back through the
window with the remark:
Gentlemen, we don't take such
money as that here. It is rank coun-
terfeit.'
Judge Reinhard at that time, as now,
was very gentlemanly in diction and
manner, but he couldn't help himself,
and with the one expression: ''Well,
I'll be id" turned on his heel and
went out on the street. Every last one
of the silver dollars he had worked so
hard to earn was a counterfeit, and
within short time thereafter his hon
est client was sent to the prison south
for five years for making and circulat-
ing crooked money.

One very singular fact obtrudes itself
among the commonplace thoughts of the
hour = democratic business men are
economizing and retrenching just as
vigorously as republican business men.
What makes it look SO ALFRED funny is
that at the same time they are confident
that business needs the stimulus which
a democratic administration would give.
Now is their time to buy up everything
In sight if they are so sure of q business
revival. They have three years to real
ize in, anyway.
