All the bonds have been taken. At
the close of business Wednesday the
offers for bonds aggregated sos 600,
900, IS 100000 more than the
amount Secretary Carlisle will sell.
kilograms were received from var
ious parts of the country stating that
additional offers would be sent in
Thursday before noon, the time at
which all bids will be closed 1t is
understood that most of the larger
offers were at figure slightly above
the upset price of $l17.223.
There was so ne Interesting talk in
the Senate Wednesday about bonds.
Mr. Hoar took position against the
action and prospective action of
Secretary Carlisle far in advance of
that taken Tuesday by Senator
Sherman. boldly declaring Secretary
Carlisie's bonds illegal and carrying
no constitutional or lawful obliga
tiou of the Government for their
payment. Senator German, speak
ng for the Democratic side of the
Senate rather than tor the Admins
tra,ion, justified the action of Score
tary Carlisle as inevitable in the
circumstances, which be claimed
were created by Republican legisla
lion and Republican Administra-
tion, and be maintained that Secre.
tary Foster was prepared to Issue
bonds to meet the current obligations
of the Government when the Har.
rison Administration went out The
Republican Senators insisted that
Foster had in view only the main
tenance of the gold reserve, With the
exception of Senator Teller. Who said
that he believed that Secretary
Foster meant to use the money
derived from the bonds just as Sec.
rotary Carlisle would.
Senator German, pressed by Sen
ator Hoar and other Republicans to
say why the Democrats did not
propose lawful measure of relief
for the Treasury, said that it ought
to have been done in connection
with the repeal of tie Sherman act.
as he and other Democratic Senators
had advised 10 the eKtra session,
but that the Executive did not agree
with them, and therefore it was not
done, aud could not now be done
until the embers OF the extra session
strife had become cold.
German. in speaking of the effects
of the Sherman act repeal, said that
the prosperity which everybody had
predicted as consequence had not
come. George, of Mississippi; Pugh,
of Alabama. and other Democrats
protested at this a good humored
way, saying, mot everybody, not
everybody p Senator German
laughed, and said: swell, some
pesple," Yes" broke in Senator
Pugh, froE bis seat. "a very small
crowd" which sads the whole
Senate laugh.

Dr.. Parkhurst, the New York re-

Germany and they are "beautiful"
institutions. The doctor says he knows
what he is talking about. We doubt

German beer garden has been tried 10

hundreds of them in this country but
Dr.. Parkhurst is the first American not

he went all the way to Germany to see
it. The Rev. Doctor need not wait for

Governor Brown 10 his message OF

Governor Brown 10 his message on
reassessment of real estate, recommends
that it be done every five years by the
county commissioners sitting in each
election district, and calling as witnesses
such persons as choose to consult and
advise with them, in getting as near as
it is possible at the true value of real
estate. This seems to be very judic-
ious plan for assessing the land, and
this or some similar plan should be
adopted, but for personal property the
listing plan should take precedence OF
all others. The personal should be
listed not less than every other year.

Public Education.

There has been introduced 10 the
Maryland legislature compulsory
school bill which requires all children
between the ages of eight and fourteen
shall be sent to school at least sixteen
weeks in each year. A light penalty is
provided for parents or guardians who
fail to comply with the law. There are
compulsory school laws in several Of
the States but they are scarcely more
than dead letter laws.
Compulsory school laws will never be
enforced till the State, whose interest,"
it is to haye education general, shall
provide means for defraying more OF
the cost for general education than it
now does. 1t is expecting rather too
much for poor. hard working woman
to board and clothe children while
attending school until they are IA
years old, even though she has hus-
baud who is out of work halt his time
A compulsory law that would embody
among its provisions q moderate sum to
help maintain the poorer class Of chill
dren while attending school. and pre-
scribe q full term for attendance. and
dockage for every day that the children
were absent from school, would enforce
itself. The question of taxation bobs
up here, but that could be met by an
enlightened system of taxation betting
the advanced period of civilization
society has reached. While our pres
ent system, which has been handed
down from the dark ages, is retained
progress in public education will be
hampered.

While the legislature has the dog
business before it let it pass a law
requiring every dog owner to put a
brass collar or chain on the neck of every
dog, with the name of the owner en-
graved on the plate, with penalty for
neglect and the right of every person
to kill all dogs whenever seen without
such collar. These restrictions together
with the present tax would 60 lar
towards abating the nuisance. Under
such law "death and taxes" would be
as sure to overtake dogs as they now
do men.

A speaker who has planned an adj
dress for multitude and finds himself
confronted with but single auditor
sometimes fails to readjust his remarks,
and tho result is apt to be ludicrous.
A little story illustrative Of this point is
told in connection with former presi-
dent of the University of Nurth Caro-
lima
One day as this dignified and stately
parsonage was walking about the cam
pus he observed an unlawful assemblage
Of students at some little distance. He
did not hasten his steps, but proceeded
slowly toward them, with his head down
and his eyes apparently bent in contem-
plation of his own boots.
When this leisurely proceeding had
brought him to the spot where the
students had been gathered, only one
young man remained, the others having
precipitately departed.
The president raised his head and sur
veyed the solitary culprit with apparent
severity, although the young man al
ways commended that he detected twin
kle IL his keen eyes.
"Sir," said the president in COM
manding tone, Instantly disFerse to
your several places of abode. ("
Difficult though the feat Acquired
certainly was, the young man executed
it to the best of his ability by "dis-
persing' without further delay. -

A Legal Tilt.

The following amiable contest &C.
cured in Westminster hall between
Lord Campbell and an eminent queens
counsel. The action was one brought to
recover for damages done to carriage
which the Q. @. repeatedly called
broug ham, pronounoing both syllables
of the word brougham, whereupon
Lord Campbell pompously observed:
Broom is the more usual pronuncia-
ton. A carriage Of the kind you mean
is generally and not incorrectly called a
broom. That pronunciation is open to no
grave objection, and it has the great adj
vantage Of saving tho time consumed by
uttering an extra syllable. Half an
hour later in the same trial Lord Camp
bell, abiding to decision given in a
similar action, said,. 'In that the car
riage which had sustained injury was
an omnibus pardon me, my lord, "
interposed the @. c., "a carriage of the
kind to which you draw attention is
usually termed bus That pronuncia-
ton is open to no great objection, and
it has the great advantage of saving the
time consumed by uttering two extra
syllables. - The interruption was fol-
lowed by roar Of laughter, in which
Lord Campbell joined more heartily
than any one else -Argosy.

Many birds cannot fly straight up. They
must rise at a very gentle incline. They
must get onward motion before their wings
can get full effect of the air. 1t is said
that the mode Of taking the condor is to
build pen, say 40 or so feet in diameter
and feet high and put a carcass in the
middle of it. The condor alights, but can
not again rise at an angle which will take
him over ths fence. Many heavy bodied,
short winged ducks rise from the water at
90 small AN angle that they must use both
feet and wings for 30 to 40 foot in order to
get onward motion enough to give effect
iveness to their wings by coming in con
tact with larger masses Of still air.-New
