The United States Senate.

The political complexion of the
present Senate is ~ Democrats, 3S
Republicans and 3 Populists-m making
IS in all. Three vacancies in senator.
ial representation, one each from
Montana, Wyoming, and Washington,
makes SS Senators the full representa-
tion at present. Those who deem
themselves Competent to size up the
next Senate are by no means able to
figure out anything like political
revolution. All parties are claiming
that they will hold their own.
On the Sd Of March, 1895, the
terms Of thirty members OF the United
States Senate will expire. Its little
early to count upon the successors Of
these thirty Senators. Since the
people cannot reach them directly,
they are safe from the disturbing
influences which Congressman are so
often troubled with. If the United
States Senator can make his peace
and calling sure in his State legisla-
ture, either through persuasive Doodle
or christian endeavor, he needs not
bother his head about the so-called
sovereign will or sovereign power.
And as a general thing he don't.

Foreigners Threaten the Destruction
of Mining Property.

The general merchandise store of
the Whiteb,east Fuel Company, at
Ladd, Illinois, was looted on the 9Th.
inst. by mob of twelve hundred allen
miners from Spring Valley. The
stock was valued at $4,000 and will
be complete loss, such articles as
could not be carried away being de-
stroyed. The mob was composed Of
Li:huanians, Poles and Italians, being
of the same class that caused the de-
predations at Spring Valley.
The strikers became so emboldened
over their success that they made
known their plans for the future 1t
is the sacking of the buildings of coal
companies, the destruction of the ma
chinery and the burning of the mines.
This work, the miners assert, will be
accomplished before long.

Protect the 0riole

On tree close by the chamber
window Of friend of ours in Brighton
appeared the other day large nest OF
caterpillars, which as soon as the
weather cleared must be destroyed.
Early the next morning a jubilant
bird song was heard by our friend
near her chamber window, and look
ing out she found an oriole golden
.robin) eating caterpillars and singing
its song of thanksgiving.
That oriole renuereu better ser
vice in destroying that nest OF cater
pillars than it could have rendered on
a lady's hat.
1t is said that if all the birds were
destroyed the increase Of insects
would become SO great that every
form of human and animal life would
perish from the earth.

Quite Few Snakes in One Hole,

Isaac Williams tells this snake story
to the Uniontown NeUs- Standard,
writing from Dunbar:
A few DAYS ago Samuel Lowry, who
works with me at the furnace, asked
me to 90 with him and he would show
me snake den. Sam is an old hand
at the business. He took with him 4
small hand drill and hammer and a
liberal supply Of dynamite and drug
store whisky. About FIVE miles back
in the mountain from the furnace We
found the den. Sam proceeded TO
drill small hole in a kind OF a fiat
rock that lay by itself in a small clear
ed space. When Sam had got every
thing in shape we retired short dis
tance till the explosion Of dynamite
had shaken the snakes up; then we
proceeded to arm ourselves with a
stout stick apiece and went for the
snakes. As we came near the rock,
that was now blown to pieces, | got
very sick from the smell of the snakes,
Dut Odill tlNi iIOL ilIIuu lIC oiuSli. iiS
just took drink Of whisky and went
for the snakes. He killed forty,three
that were crawling away from the
rock.
After the air had got little puri-
fed about the place we proceeded to
explore the den. Carefully rolling
the heavy pieces of rock away we
found space Of about ten feet square
covered foot deep with dead snakes.
We got sticks with hooks on and
dragged them out and counted them.
There were 2o9 rattlesnakes and 1873
copperheads, in all 347. l never
knew before this that two kinds of
snakes would stay in the same den.
ANY one wanting to prove the truth
Of this SO called snake story, let him
come to Dunbar and will show him
the remains Of the snakes.

Who Pays the Damages 2

Some presumably competent judge
now estimates that it will take on a
rough guess about eight million dollars
to pay the damages done by the
strikers in Chicago alone. This guess
is made in the absence of any detail
ed report and does not include the
national bill of expense for transporta.
tion Of troops, &c.
Lawyers in the employ of railroads
arc already busily engaged drawing
up claims for financial redress from
the State and county authorities
whose jurisdiction covers the territory
u pom which mob-rule was permitted,
or at least not prevented. The county
of Cook, Illinois, and the city of
Chicago will want to levy pretty high
rate of taxation to meet the demand
which is likely to be put upon them
through the torch and the general tear
up Of the reckless and wrecking
s.rickers. Had the President not
wisely fore. stalled the possibility of
national censure by sending in troops
before tire enthusiastically indifferent
Governor Altgeld wanted them, it is
quite possible the National Treasury
would have been called upon through
Congress to help foot the bill of dam
ages.
1t will be some weeks no doubt be-
fore the definite amount of damages
can be told. But considering the hun
dreds of cars burned, containing pro-
miscuous freight for which the railroad
companies are held liable, there is GER
tainly quite a bill of damages for some
body to pay.
| No doubt some definite plan OF
procedure will soon be determined
upon by the railroad companies as
well as the individuals whose goods
were burned while in transit and in
care of the railroads. If the railroad
companies make good all losses Gas
the courts would be apt to compel
under ordinary circumstances) they
will DO better than they have done in
the past where perishable goods were
lost by shippers because Of the car:
hauling them being tied up by strikers
Whatever can be squeezed out of rail,
road companies through the court:
the people losing their goods while it
transit will likely get. What can't be
thus squeezed out will not be gotten
| The people will sue the railroads anc
| the railroads will sue Cook county
and Chicago city, most likely, and j
will be fine mess of litigation before
they get through with SS,ooo,oo
worth of damages.

A Flying-Machine Needed.

1t is quite likely that in the fulness
of time the Almighty will give some
Insignificant creature something still
withheld from the scientific mind,
namely, brains enough to invent a
revolutionary flying machine. Who
can comprehend the revolution it
would create or the influence flying
machine would exert commercially,
financially and morally?
Then, don't you see, we could easily
sail away above the railroad diff.
culties on terra .frma. Then, too,
the striker and the bomb-thrower
would have to shoot high in order
to hit the innocent passengers while
en- route, and who would prefer for
sake of peace to travel on their own
hook and conveyance. But what will
become of railroads in that event, dc
you ask Why, they will all drown in
their watered stock, and then theil
real and everlasting trouble with
devilish fremen and engineers viii
just begin.

On Docking.

Gov. Greenhalge has issued an order
to his staff that they must not appear
IN his official company mounted on
horses that haze their tails docked.
The governor is humane man, and
when he tried to buy horse short
time ago the man told him it was next
to impossible to get decent animal
that didn't have his tail docked.
7hen," said his E.cceUency, "N
aodlk."
The practice of docking horses
tails is being carried on to large ex-
tent in Lowell. The Humane Society
offers reward of $50 for the arrest
and conviction of any one performing
this brutal act. Under a law now be-
fore the Legislature any person mutila-
ting horse may be sent to jail for
year or fined $500, and the finding OF
horse with freshly-docked tail in
the stable of any person shall be sufh-
clent evidence to prove case. Nearly
all the so.called swell turn.outs In
Lowell are now drawn by horses
achOSe tails hace been cut.
Gov. Greenhalge's opposition to the
practice of docking the tails OF horses
does credit not only TO his humanity
but to his common sense. The FASH
ION of mutitating these helpless
quadrupeds is rather less respectdi

Tall Girls and Short.

Opinion has always been very much
divided upon the subject of women S
height. The novelists and designers
Of fashion plates incline to the view
that the female form divine should be
somewhat Of the altitude of a life
guardsman. Tall women have un.
questionably been in the ascendant in
more senses than one Of late. 1t has
been expected of US to be very much
nearer six feet than FIVE. and we have
very successfully contrived to fulfill
this expectation. Notwithstanding.
there is a great deal to be said on the
other side. There are those who will
declare that there is more fascination,
more charm, more vivacity about a
little woman. She is, they say, more
energetic, and beside her the average
young man does not feel the draw
backs of early and incessant cigarette
smoking and the degeneracy Of his
sex; she can coax and pout and
founce into pretty little passions with
greater grace than "daughter of the
Gods, she needs protecting arm in
a crowd, and she does not take up so
much room in railway carriage. or
dwarf her partners in the ball room
There never was yet little woman
who could not command attention
and firt FIVE times as furiously as a
tall one. and no amount of height
ever produced more dignity than a
small woman can assume on occasion.
1t is. of course, by comparison that
everything is thus or thus, and so it is
only when judged by the standard Of
some exceptionally tall sister that
short woman will permit herself to be
SO described. She will always indig-
nantly disclaim a brevity of inches
under any circumstances, though no
woman ever yet objected to the epi-
thet Of ''little woman" used as a term
of affection.-Lady'S PiftOyiaL

The Dog Laughed.

The proprietor of Third Avenue
store owns a little black kitten that
cultivates habit of squatting on its
launches, like a bear or kangaroo.
and then sparring with its fore paws
as if it had taken lessons from a pugi-
list.
A gentleman took into the store
the other evening an enormous black
dog, half Newfoundland, half collie,
fat, good-natured and intelligent. The
tiny black kitten, instead OF boiling at
once for shelter, retreated a few
PAGES, sat erect on its hind legs, and
''put its fists" in an attitude of def.
ance. The contrast in size between
the two was intensely amusing. 1t
reminded one of Jack the Giant Kill
er preparing to demolish giant.
Slowly and without sign of ex-
citability the huge dog walked as far
as his chain would allow him, and
gazed intently at the kitten and its
odd posture. Then, as the comical-
ity of the situation struck him, he
turned his head and shoulders around
to the spectators, and if an animal
ever laughed in the world that dog
assuredly did, then and there. He
neither barked nor growled, but in
dulged in low chuckle, while eyes
and mouth beamed with merriment.
