A Basket Ball League.

There is movement on foot to form
a basket ball league among the swell
girls of New Orleans Basket ball has
of late, urdor the heading of athletic
games, become very popular in all the
northern colleges, and in Wellesley COL
lege one of our New Orleans girls is the
captain of the team" " 1t does not diff
fer materially from baseball, only that
it is more refined and lacks the rougher
elements of the latter game, although it
requires much the same requisites, ex-
cept that Of weight 1t is limited that it
will be quite the thing" this winter to
belong to basket ball team. The young
ladies at the Southern Athletic club, it
is rumored, will organize Immediately.

No Bottle In Her Pocket.

An editor out west, having been asked
if he ever saw baldb-aded woman, re
piled: "No, we never did. Nor did we
ever see woman waltzing around town
in her shirt sleeves with cigar between
uer teeth and run into every saloon she
saw. We have never seen woman go
fishing with a bottle in her pocket. sit
down on the damp ground all day and
go home drunk at night. Nor have we
seen a woman yank off her coat and say
she could lick any man in town. No.
God bless her, she isn't built that way. T"

Broke the Recnr,i.

Miss Page Of Norwich, England, is to
be credited with the distinction of being
the first woman who has ever spoken in
the Foresters' high court. On the con-
oluding day of the congress there was
discussion regarding the wisdom of
electing male trustee or treasurer for
female court. 1t was notable that the
lady leaned strongly to the male side of
the question, saying that ''it was non
seLfc to say that women were as COM
pelcl.t as men to manage or advise as to
monetary matters. If they elected a wo-
man to this Office, she would consult
her husband, and they thought it better
that the gentleman should be consulted

In primitive times, when men went
into the fight, 1t is hardly supposable
that anything like a roster was kept no
army bulletin printed, Dead, Missing,
Wounded. According to tradition, the
method employed to record the losses in
battle was simple. Before going into the
fight every man took stone and de-
posted it in heap. After the battle
the survivors took away each one a
stone. Nothing was easier than TO count

The second Ct $20, for retaining on the
New Hampshire circuit The first fee Of
81, 900 was paid in May, 1884, by Mr..
Badger. Services regarding Cillcy's will
commanded $500. The total amount for
tho first year was footed up as Sl3, ,140,
with the remark, Sept. 22, 1884, thus
done and concluded. "
A similar summing up appears at the
close Of each other year. The second
total is $l5, 1873. "a; the third is $21,
1913. The first entry of So, 900 was in
1885, March z; the first of SO, 900 Dec.
7 in the samo year. The last payment
was in respect to Florida land The
largest single honorarium was 81, 500.
In February Of the fourth year So, 600 is
set down as bestowed in case of Trinity
church, New York.
In turning over this record leading
metropolitan and even provincial law
yers are astonished that Webster, al
though 20 years in Boston, so under
valued his services He learned better
at last. When Robert G. Winthrop
looked at the earliest date, he said,
That's just the time that was ending
my studies in Webster Office, and the
chirography led him to add that Web
ster never wrote firm hand. Nobody
surveyed the relic with more interest
than DR.. o. w. Holmes. Among other
things he said: Had the influx been
tenfold, Websters purse would have re-
manned empty still. Had its capacity
received like the sea, whatever entered
there would have run off like water
from the back of duck. New York

His Startling Prediction About Napoleon
III Came True.
The Duo de Morny, Napoleon mouth
piece, actually wrote these truly infa-
nous words: "If you arrest Victor
Hugo, do what you will with him.
1t was soon after this, when Napoleon,
wading through blood, trampling upon
women and children, persecuting and
silencing all that was best in France,
confirming his throne by bribery, cor.
ruption, imprisonment, Punishment and
wholesale murder--it was at such a
moment, this adventurer having got
himself accepted by the courts of Europe
as the ruler Of the French, that Victor
Hugo hurled against the MAN Of De-
cember" these truly appalling but pro-
phetic words:
"Let us not slay this man. Let us
keep him alive. A superb punishment!
Oh, if one day he might pass along the
highway naked, bowed down, trembling
as the grass trembles at the wind, under
the execration of the whole human racel

An eyewitness described to me Ma
poleon III as he appeared ON the even
ing before Sedan-an old, bowed down
looking man. STOPPING on his horse, the
dye washed out OF his hair, his mus
tache draggled. passing unsaluted by his
own officers, with the common soldiers
grinding their teeth and muttering
curses upon him. Had this vision risen
before the eyes of the prophet poet in
1862, his words could hardly have been
more aptly chosen. H. II. Howeis in

learned that the county commissioners Of

Treasurer Hattabaugh of that county,
who In In default OF the gum of $1,000 Of
state taTes. i do not know whose duty
II Is to collect this money from Mr.. Hatta-
bRugh, but ! do know that the state
should receive Its money. My understand
ing Is that Mr.. Hattabaugh. upon retir-
ing from his office, made an entry In the
county books showing he had disbursed
this money TO the state, when really he
still had It In his own hands as president
OF the bank. ] wish you would consult
with the attorney general and promptly
take such action as will each compel Mr..
Hattabaugh or his bondsmen or the peo-
pie OF Latah county TO pay over the mon
ey. The people OF the state are paying
interest on state warrants while some
body is having the use OF this SlT,0o0 IL
Is a condition which should not be allowed

had In instltuting such proceedings as
will bring about a settlement OF this ac-
count. Yours truly,
