The Canadian parliament has queer
hours according to our IDEAS. The sessions
are begun at 3 pm. From to o'clock
there is a recess for dinner. On reassem-
tling the session often continues long past
midnight and occasionally until daylight
when important debates are under way
The senate rarely convenes after the dinner
hour, but the commons sits late into the
night, rule
The different parties in the house sit in
different sections. On the speakers right
are the government supporters and on the
left sit the members of the opposition The
members may wear their hats, except when
speaking or voting. When making an ad-
dress, members talk directly to their op-
ponents instead of Mt them through the

Cnt, Imprisoned for Five Days, De-
comes BlOOdthirsty.
From the Louisville Courier Journal
The family of Jacob Draudt, a grocer at
Jackson and Madison streets, has been in a
state Of mind because of strange sounds,
like the wall Of catamount, which have
been issuing from their cellar for the past
two or three days. The family was consid-
e1ably Inconvenience as well as intimi-
dated The case was laid before a police
officer, who listened attentively to the
sounds that came from within the cellar
1ney came from part of the cellar which
could only be reached through a narrow
opening in the sidewalk, the man who went
after him took his life in his hands Officer
Prather considered it his duty, as a duly
sworn officer to keep the public peace, to 20
in after the disturber; SO, armed with a
Ratchet, he began to grope his way through
the narrow. dark opening He had been
gone but a few seconds when wild screech
came out OF the pavement. Following this
was a yell of pain from the officer.
The crowd attracted to the scene was
thrown into spaSms. Some were for sending
in rescuing party, but all appeared to be
more disposed to stand by and listen. Then
yell of triumph from the dark recess re-
assured the group, and two or three tried

ly a bleeding hand belonging to Officer
Prather, whose smutty and scratched face
was not long in showing out of the darkness
The black cat was the property of Mr.
Draudt. 1t had been in the cellar for five
days without food or water, and was furi-
Gus. When the officer dropped the cat to
the grour d, it flew at him fercely and buried
its sharp claws in his uniform over his
breast He struck the crazed animal one
blow with the Ratchet and put out what
was left of its nine lives.

ing the festivities which took place one
evening very handsome marble table was
broken, and not the least responsible party
for the damage was the leading spirit of
the OCCASION Eugene Field. While those
present were expressing regrets the propri-
etor of the hotel appeared on the scene
with claim for damages. Eugene and his
compatriots swore 1t was done by pros
porous clothing merchant on a nearby cor
ner, who shortly before had departed.
Rather than face his accuserS the mer-
chant promptly liquidated the claim.
On this same occasion Eugene procured

about the hotel, and during the early morn
ing hours aroused different good-natured
friends who had retired. Himself and asSo-
ciates would take the awakening guests

upon the truck and gloriously haul them
about the long halls OF the hotel.
Made Victims of His Wit.
'Eugene's escapades in those early days
were many, and his escapes as numerous.
But his explanations and apologies were al
ways unique and plausible, and the ire
sistible wag invariably got off. His best
friend was his choicest meat for personal
criticism in his pungent paragraphs. Re-
ferr1ng to one of them, who was a visitor to
81. Louis, he said: "A slender young man
with pink cheeks was seen yesterday wend-
ing his way to the Plum street depot. He
wore broad-brim:ned vote-for-Clardy''
hat, and looked like a, toadstool beneath a
tropical sun. Close inspection revealed the
editor of the Pennington Times
another instance of his charity followed
the visit of a young gentleman to a young
lady relative of Fields. The visit was in
the country. and the aforesaid young gen
t,eman had come in contact with that
leroclous little animal called the jigger
concerning this the wit published some
thing after the following style:

occurred between prominent persons. When
asked where he obtained ii he would in
Varlably lay 1t at the door of each one of

there is a trrcne. hung about with silken

\ When the eighty senators have filed in
the governor general VIII address them as
honorable messieurs," their traditional
title, and read speech supposed to be in
spired by the queen herself Then some
favored member will move reply to the
address, as is done in the English house of
lords, after which the regular business of
the session will be taken up.
The Democratic Commons.
The proceedings in the house of commons
will be more democratic, and the scene will
more resemble that of the opening of a
ses sion in our own national House of Rep
resentatives. The Canadian senate is a
distinctly aristocratic body. Its members
are appointed by the governor general, and
they hold Office for life. Their number is
limited to eighty.
The commoners, however, are elected by
the people. much as our Representatives
are. The commons is as powerful as 1t is
democratic. 1t makes and unmakes the
governor generals cabinet, and its voice is
generally listened to with great respect.
The queen herself is always rather guard
ed in her speech through her representa-
tive, the governor general. to the Cana
dams, and leaves them, rule to settle
their own affairs without much interior
cree. There are over 200 members in the
house of commons They 'ira~ a salary of
$1,000 each, with an allowance for mile
age. The speaker of the house gets A sal
airy of $1,000 a year. Senators are also al
lowed $1,000 annually and mileage The
gentleman usher of the black rod gets
more than this. his salary being sl.350 an
nually, with residence in the parliams
house thrown in.
