THE ASS HUNG FOR 1T.

In the higher courts of law, animals
seldom make their appearance nova
days unless to be turned out by the
officials But in old times they often
figured in the dock. In France, if an
animal killed anybody, and it was
proved that his master knew him to be
viciously disposed they were both
hanged together.
In 1884. the heavy rains brought out
vast number of caterpillars "The
walls, windows and chimneys, writes
Mr.. Croake James, "were covered with
them. The Grand Vicar of Valence
cited the caterpillars before him; he
appointed a proctor to defend them.
The cause was solemnly argued, and
he sentenced them to quit the diocese.
But they did not obey. 1t was dis
cussed whether to proceed against these
creatures by anathema an imprecation.
or, as it was expressed, by malediction
and accommodation. But two priests
and two theologians, having been con-
suited, changed the opinions Of the
grand vicar, SO that afterward nothing
was made use of but adjuration, prayers
and sprinkling holy water. The life
of caterpillars is short, and these cere-
monies, having continued several
months. received the credit of having
miracu lously exterminated Them"
The most famous case of an animal
criminal was, perhaps, the gardeners
ass at Nismes. in Languedoc. which.
being thirsty. strolled into a church
and drank the holy water. 1t was
tried for saorilege. and. though counsel
was assigned to 1t, the evidence was
too strong. and the poor creature was
found guilty, sentenced to be hanged
and afterwards burned, and the gar
dener to pay the costs of the trial

THE WHIST CRANK.

He wanted to play whist and was
mad because they thought they could
rehearse the gossip of the neighborhood
and play their hands at the same time.
He was a man; they three women,
and they were really trying to enter
tain him. But then they had to talk
gossip, although they did play whist.
Finally one trumped his ace. He
laid down his card, gulped hard, said
something down in his throat and took
up his hand again, while they breathed
sigh of relief.
In the midst of an intricate cross
lead he was trying to engineer under
adverse circumstances she trumped
his high card again and in dismay
cried: "Oh, what is trumps?" That
was too much. He threw down his,
cards, showed his chair back and spoke
his mind:
my heavens" he cried, and they
crouched beneath the lash of his
tongue. "when the Angel Gabriel comes

so she said:

from the year 1000 B. c., down to tba
Christian era, there was a constant
succession of artists in ivory in the
western Asiatic countries. in Egynt

greatly inferior in extent of available

beauty of polish and is less fragile, be.

about fifty eight feet.
From the middle of the fourth cen.

of carving in ivory. The most i'm

In London recently a fire broke out
in the house of gentlemen who had
for many years travelled in search of
rare coins, and who had spent many
thousands of pounds sterling in buying
them. He was found in his burning

the firemen. and most of the coins were
saved in the firemens' helmets. A
London newspaper printed story the
next day describing him as miser,
who had to be dragged away from his
gold in order to save his life, and the
gentleman has now entered suit for
heavy damages.
A French engineer has conceived the
interesting idea of reproducing the
house in which Napoleon lived at st.
Helena as an attraction during the Ex-

an exact copy of the original, sur

senting the natural surroundings. Va
rious curious dioramic accessories,
such as reproduction Of the lower
deck of the Bellerophon. form part of
this plan. 1t is the idea of the in

shall be so arranged as to be easily
transported from capital to capital

be finally established near Napoleon's
tomb.

principle, however, is universally
admitted, and the majority in sup
port of decisive, straightforward
action is SO strong that there is lit
file doubt OF the passage through the
House of a revenue bill on pretec-
ton lines.
Tee above clearly shows that the
statement of some Republicans that
the tariff would not be raised if
their party came into power is a
mere blind. The party of monopo-
lies and classes against the masses
has not reformed. AS soon as it Sc
cures control of all branches of the
Government the robber tariff will
again be restored and another bur-
den added to the American people.

much worked up over a second at

his residence. and rs our reporter
learns, will today make Mr.. Stanley
a tender of the premium paid IN

risk further.
Yesterday morning about 6o'eloel1
the house was found To be OH Ere

fire was the work of an ineendary.
tt was due to the excellent work OF
the Fire department and the quick
response u the alarm by the
department. that the house was
saved from total destruction on
that occasion,
This morning about 6:3O a gentle
man passing the home of Mr.. Stanley
again discovered the house to be on
fire. He gave the alarm and again
the fire department made a run of
nearly a mile and extinguished the
flames before any material damage
was done.
The house was undoubtedly set on
fire. as the flames burned a hole

orr FOREIGN RELATIONS.

ghhs President, in his message 10
conoress last Tuesday, confnedhlm-
self 10 the discussion Of our foreign
relations and our National finances.
These two questions, he said, were
Of paramount Importance and M
yolyed the well being of our Nation
and the prosperity Of our people,
Other recommendations he left TO
the chiefs of the different depart
ments. merely sactioning what they
said and what they recommended.
The message clearly shows the
conservative, dignided and yet fear
less attitude of the administration
toward foreign countries. No med
ding in foreign complications in
which this country is not concerned'
no fear or trembling at the at.
eaeeeaehmente Of other Ma
tons, no interference in struggles
between other countries, have char
acterized the Cleveland administra-
ton.
Great Britain has been warned
that this country will not allow any
infringement upon the Monroe doc
trine and insists that that eountry's
boundary dispute with Venezuela
must be settled by arbitration. A
reply to this message is said to be
on its way to Washington now from
Lord Salisbury. Every available
means has been used TO protect
American interests in Turkey, and
though the representative dispatched
TO the disturbed quarters by the
President for the purpose of inform
ing the government of any out
break or danger to It's interests has
been thwarted by the Sultan, the
President thinks the naval vessels
in the vicinity will afford sufficient
protection. In this middle the Ad=
ministration has carefully guarded
American interests and observed
strict neutrality, avoiding any com
plieations or difficulty and adhering
to diplomatic laws. The message
also urges Americans to take no part
in the Cuban rebellion. However
much our sympathies might be
touched by people struggling for
independence, the plain duty of this
country is to observe strict neutral
ity and maintain friendly relations
with all countries, The policy of
the Administration is a wise one, and
as a result the United States is at
peace with the world aud her flag is
respected by every Nation and every
tribe.

MORE REVENUE.

One of the first things required of
the present Congress will be to in
crease the revenues of the Govern
ment.
Since the adjournment of the last
Congress and the defeat of the in
come tax law by the Supreme Court
the revenues have been inadequate
and bonds have been issued and
sold to defray Government expenses.
While the sales were made directly
to replenish the gold reserve of$100, :
600, 600, the gold reserve was lowered
because of insufficient revenues. If
greenbacks, when presented TO the
treasury for redemption in gold had
not been paid out again but had
been kept in the treasury, this drain
would haze soon ceased. But the
Secretary of the Treasury, owing to
the lack of funds, was forced to use
them in paying expenses, and again
in circulation, they were again pre-
scented to the treasury for redemp-
ton and consequently the gold re
serve was lowered and bond issue
made necessary.
The question for consideration
now is where is the additional reve
nue. to come from. The Republi-
cans will demand that the tariff be
raised or be imposed on some arti-
cles that are now admitted free,
while the Democrats willlikely favor
Increasing the internal tax on
liquors and tobacco. The House is
Republican, the Senate doubtful and
the President a Democrat, aud bit
ter fight is here expected. An IN
come tax seems to have dropped out
of the question since it has been de-
clared unconstitutional.
The New York AdUertiseq recently
interviewed leading Republican
congressman upon the question
how they expected to raise more
revenue, and says:
The Symposium Of Congressional
opinion which was printed in the
Sunday Advertiser yesterday proves
conclnsively that large majority of i
the Republican Senators and mem
bers-eIect are in favor OF SUPPLYING
