The attorney general of New York was
recently called upon 10 say whether or
not a state officer might ride upon a free
pass issued BY palace car company, the
question being whether such passes came
under the constitutional prescription OF
railroad free passes. The attorney gem
eral held that although palace car COM
panies are not railroad corporations. stil
their functions are those OF a common
carrier, ana such being the case public
officers are prohibited from riding on free
passes issued by them. An appeal viii
be taken from his ruling. The New York
public officers are not going to give up
free rides Il they can possibly help II.

The queer story of a female seminary
being ruined by a bug comes from Bridge
port, Conn. If the destroyer had been IN
the plural number there would not have
been so much room FOR wonder. But there
was only one bug, and it was another
kind" of bug, at that. Five years ago
the principal Of the school received from
an alumnus in Mexico an educated beetle,
which had golden harness and would do
all sorts Of tricks. Through newspaper
notices of the educated bug the school
got to be quite well advertised. and so
many pupils went 10 it that the building
had to be enlarged and other expenses
incurred. Last year one Of the pupils
was taken sick with scarlet fever An
exodus followed The place was over
hauled and replumbed but only a few pu-
plis went back And SO Il happened
