A Connecticut Wild Man.

A few days since two young men
who were hunting in the woods near
Danbury, Conn, were startled by see
ing near them, gazing at them in a
wild sort of way, man, who was ev-
identity wild. His shaggy, unkempt
hair and beard hung down to his
waist, and though the day was bitter
cold, he had no clothing on but the
rags OF some undergarments and one
tattered shoe. When he saw that he
was perceived he fed from the hun
ters with great swiftness. They fol
lowed him and saw him disappear IN
a cave where neither of them cared
to follow him. They reported what
they had seen to the selectmen of the
town, and an effort will be made to
capture the unfortunate. The wild
man is thought to be Owen Burgess,
a halter, who disappeared from Dan
bury long time ago, and of whom
nothing has been heard since.

"Pricking" for sheriff is a very old

bodkin through the paper on which

American government rests, it is not likely

England they are joining the procession.
Your correspondent while in London last
summer visited the house Of commons and
saw the principle of majority rule carried
to fuIIy as great an extreme as it has ever
been carried here under Reed and Crisp.
The difference was that Mr.. Gladstone, the
head of the executive branch of the govern
ment was in that case the personal leader.
II was as il President Cleveland were to
drive ND Pennsylvania avenue from the
White House. enter the capitol, appear at
his place in the hall of the commons and
crack his whip.
The sneaker of the British house of COM
mons to this day occupies position SINH
lar to that which our speakers occupied IN
the old times-that is TO say, he is "the
creature of the house" He has no power
save that which the house has conferred
nnon him. and it is his duty not to lead,
not to control, not to press this meas
nre forward into life and keep that one
hack to it's death-not to mold policies and
keen his party on the path which. IN his
oninion. it should follow-but simply TO act
as the presiding officer, as the chairman oil
the meeting, as the moderator OF order
as the mouthpiece of the chamber. de Is
expected to do this with absolute impair
tiality not only as between individuals Ou'
as between political parties.
