NEillepeds.

The little creature which possesses
the distinction of having more legs than
any other animal is that which belongs
to the family of insects known as mile
peds, or thousand footed. There are
several different species of these, but
they all possess the common character
istic Of having segmented bodies, each
segment of which is provided with its
own pair Of feet. These are set SO close
" along the body as to resemble hairs.
and when they move one after another
with perfect regularity the effect is pre-
cisely the same on small scale as that
Of Il field of oats undulating under the
influence of the wind. Some species OF
,nillepeds have as many as $50 separate
and distinct legs. They are all per-
fectly harmless, unlike the centipeds,
which frequently have the power of in
fiicting poisonous wounds. Brooklyn

Grafton. The rest of the day was taken
up by Senator George Of Mississippi in
discussion of the legal aspects Of the

committee strikes out the provision
which the senate subcommittee in
serted first taxing cigars and cigarettes

"BLOODY BRIDLES."

Bloody Brides" Waite, Populistic
Governor of Colorado, is coward.
In the recent trouble at Denver, dur
ing which he called out the State mil
tia and the regular army to force an
entrance to the city hall, guarded by
the local police, and which is now be-
ing arbitrated by the Supreme Court,
he remained in his room at the hotel in
the utmost fear that every caller was
an assassin, and that the next moment
would be his last. Wait was dubbed
"Rloody Brides" by the anarchistic
speech made at the silver convention
in which he declared that he would
wade to the brides in blood for the
free coinage cause. Since that time
he has made verious other boasts of a
similar kind, not the least being that
he would get into the Denver city hall
for the purpose of removing couple
of officers of the police board and re-
placing them by a couple of men from
his own party. In not single at
tempt has he been successful. On
the other hand his course has been
loudly condemned by all persons cap
able of judging from a neutral stand
point. He attempted to bulldose the
police of Denver, but the police we're
ready to fight the militia, which was
not anxious to carry out the orders of
a wheel-brained executive. Seeing
that the police would not yield he con-
decended to do what was at first sug-
gested, arbitrate the matter. In the
meantime Colorado has been put to a
heavy expense.and a needless expense,
to carry out the crazy whim of an i'll
sane governor. Where is bleeding
Kansas, now?

tain Glasses of Public Dependents.
DR.. James w. Walk, in lecture on
Detectives" before the University of
Pennsylvania, defined the detectives as
those members of society having serious
mental or physical defects, either con-
genital or acquired. This group COM
prised six classes-first, the blind; sec.
ond, the deaf mutes; third, insane
fourth, the feeble minded, or idiots !;
fifth, the inebriates- where drunken
ness has become disease-and sixth,
the epileptics.
DR.. Walk took up each of these class
es and stated what he believed to be
the best way to deal with them. Of the
blind and deaf he said: blind. deaf
and feeble minded children have as
much claim to an education as others,
and since their defects prevent them
from receiving it in the ordinary public
schools it is only just that they should
be instructed in schools especially adapt
ed to their condition. Such schools are
also most economical investment CT
public money, for by means Of the train
ing they give the great majority of the
blind and deaf mutes become self sup
porting in adult life.
''To fit blind children for self support
it is necessary that their discipline
while at school should be rigid, so as to
impart thoroughness in the practice of
the few industries, such as weaving and
music, which are open to them. The
managers of the best schools for the
blind now insist upon this rigid train
ing, and in this way sometimes incur
unpopularity among those who do not
understand their real motive.
''For those of the adult blind who
cannot maintain themselves in open
competition with normal workmen
there should be founded in each state
industrial homes where they may reside
and labor. the deficiency in their earn
ing being supplied by benevolence.
Where such homes are we'll conducted
they are nearly self supporting.
Under the stimulus of the popular
interest excited by the eloquent ad-
dresses of the great philanthropist, Doro-
thea DiX, pennsylvania many years ago
undertook to make adequate provision
for tee insane at public expense. The
first instit, ton for their care in the
ccm ,nonweaIth was the insane depart
'rent OF the old Pennsylvania hospital.
We have now many asylums for these
people. but not enough yet to ;ccommo-
date them all. Asyluns should lie so
regulated that the inmates can work
and be self supporting.
Dr.. Walk thought that idiots, or the
feeble minded, should not be permitted
to marry. OF epileptics he thought the
same, as their defects are hereditary.
Inebriates should be confined for long
period, during which they would be
forced to abstain totally. This treat
ment. he said, results often in perma-
nent cure.-Phlladelphia Press.

For Washington.

The. Common Veal Aggregation Sets Out
For Washington.
MAss1ILoN, O.. March M.-The
march of the Common Veal Army"
to the national capital began at
1890 p. m. The army was rather small
in numbers when it started out, but
new recruits, not merely singly or in
pairs, but by scores and hundreds are
expected by the leaders to join the main
line at every stopping place, and Com
mander Coxey is sanguine that when he
reaches the national capital he will be
at the head of 100000 American citi-
zens. His son will ride at the head Of
the army, wearing a combination suit
of blue and gray and carrying the en-
blem of the common veal, a white flag
Of peace. Mr.. Coxey himself followed
in carriage.
Drawn by Six White Horses,
while Lieutenant Carl Browne be-
astride noble stallion. The object of
the pilgrimage is already well known.
On the arrival of the army in Washing
ton it is intended to round up before the
Capitol and demand the enactment of
two bills. One of them authorizes the
secretary of the treasury to issue
$500, 900. 900 of treasury notes to be ex-
pended in the improvement of the coun-
try roads of the country, and the second
authorizes municipalities to issue nom
interest bearing bonds and to secure
notes thereon. On its way to
Washington the army is expected
to 0e fed by the voluntary con-
tributions of sympathizers along the
route, and an appeal has been issued to
farmers, capitalists and laboring men to
bring forth literally of their larders to
the end that the strangers within their
gates may not be permitted to go hun
cry.
Some Towns Are Suspicious.
Washington is to be reached on May
1. The authorities of Canton have
sworn in an extra squad of police in
case the demonstration should take an
Objectionable turn, and many other
towns, which the army is to pass
through, have followed suite.
