The Rev. 5. II. Phillips OF Durham, Pa,
81, died from blood poisoning Wednesday.
Six weeks ago a young woman of his parish
for Jest pricked him with hatpin in the
leg. Blood poisoning followed, and to save
his life the leg was amputated, but he failed
to survive the ordeal. The young woman,
whose thoughtless act ended in the preach
er's death, is almost crazed with grief.
1t was George Davidson, recently re-
moved from his position in the coast and
geodetic survey, who persuaded James
Lick, the California millionaire, TO estab-
lish the great telescope that bears his
name. The eccentric philanthropist was
induced to give up a pet plan for a mag
nifcent pyramid, to rival that of Cheops,
only 10y Davidson's suggestion that a giant
telescope would be far grander monu-

There is fine OF 800 day for each car
found without an automatic coupler, after
July l, of this year In spite of this, the
railroads of the country have still 80 per
cent of their freight cars unequipped with
this device. As the law applies only to in
terstate traffic, there is a probability that
the equipment of the remaining cars will
be slow, and the harvest of manned en-
ployes will continue.
James McAvoy of New York city was a
chronic drunkard, and, when drunk he
continually beat his wife, who on several
occasions was compelled to resort to the
police for protection. Last Saturday he
shot his wife, who died Tuesday night.
McAvoy was arraigned Wednesday morn
ing and held for homicide without bail.
Then patrolman proceeded TO take him to

When the Nez Perez Indians received
their money from the government for the
reservation lands recently opened to set
Element they went, as is the custom of the
red man under such circumstances, at once
to the nearest town to spend it. A large
number went to Pennington, Wash, and
were taken with craze for buying bug
gies and wagons. One old Indian, having
a large allowance could not find a vehicle
that seemed to him to comport with his
wealth, but finally wandered to the under
takers stable and Immediately fell in love
with the hearse and wanted to buy it. The
undertaken was astounded, but, being a
man of business, sold it for good round
sum, The Indian loaded his squaw and
pappooses into it, and, climbing on the box
among the nodding plumes, drove proudly
back to the reservation, the occupants lin
ing up against the plate glass sides in
great state. The Indian agent protested,
but the old man refused to give up his
state carriage, and he regularly drives it to
the neighboring towns with his family OF
his dogs inside.

The niyi.ihiIi;x Of TIme.

Napoleon, who knew the value of time,
remarked that it was the quarter hours
that won battles. The value of minutes
has been often recognized, and any person
watching a railway clerk handing out tick
cts and change during the last few minutes
available must have been struck with how
much could be done in those short por-
tions of time.
At the appointed hour the train starts
and by and by is carrying passengers at
the rate of 60 miles an hour In a second
you are carried 20 yards. In one twenty
ninth of a second you pass over one
yard. Now, one yard is quite an appreci-
able distance, but one-twenty- of a
second is period which cannot be appre-
ciated.
Yet, it is when we come to planetary
and stellar motions that the notion of the
infinite divisibility of time dawns upon us
in a new light. 1t would seem that no
portion of time, however microscopic, is
unavailable. Nature can perform prodi-
gies, not certainly in less than no time, but
in portions of it so minute as to be alto
gether inconceivable. The earth revOlves
on her axis in "a hours. At the equator
her circumference is %, 900 miles Hence,
in that part of the earth person is being
carried eastward at the rate of 500 yards
per second. That is, he is moving over a
yard, whose length is conceivable, in the
period of one-fve-hundred-an part
OF second, Of which We have no concep-
ton at all.
But more, the orbital motion of the
earth around the sun causes the former to
perform revolution of nearly 600, 200, 900
miles in year, or somewhat less than TO-
600 miles an hour, which is more than
1000 miles a minute. Here, then, our
second carries us the long distance of about
10 miles. The mighty ball thus flies about
a mile in the nineteenth part of second.
Good Words.

Great West have come face to face with

nected with councils of state and the phil
osophy styled transcendental. But a more
realistic figure is intruded. He voluntarily
forsook the delight of his own loneliness to

Hon. II. II. Powers, in his address to
the alumni of the University of Vermont.
at the recent commencement, took ground
for the election OF senators directly by the
people. One of his reasons for the change
was that "no electorate should be provided
that by any chance gives to a minority the
choice of a senator Taking the case of
Vermont, he showed that $50 members
constitute a majority of the joint assembly
of the legislature, and that 1870 small towns,
containing but one-third of the voters, can
elect a senator. If this We're the only
reason for the change he favors, the Oh
vious way to remove the danger of minor
control would be by an amendment of the
Vermont constitution, rather than the
constitution of the United States. Here
in Vermont the danger of minority control
extends not only to the election of senator,
but to the election of every other officer
chosen by the legislature, and to every law
enacted by that body. One hundred thirty
nine votes, representing one-third the voters
of the state will elect the judges of the SUI
preme court. In the house of representa-
tives, the abiding place of this minority
electorate, l23 members, representing less
than One-third of the voters may pass or
defeat the passage of any law, matter of
vital importance in the consideration Of
the great questions of education, taxation,
the public health, and kindred subjects.
The remedy in Vermont for this danger of
minority control is to constitute the house
of representatives on a republican basis
representation by population rather than
by towns. "No electorate should be pro-
vided that, by any chance, gives to the
minority the choice of a senator,"or the
control of legislation. What is Judge
Powers's opinion in the matter of reform
ing the electorate here in Vermont SO as
to remove this danger of minority control?
