open air. The people of Manchester gem
orally accepted the invitation. The ex-
curSiOn train to the beaches was loaded.
The electrics could scarcely begin to ac-
commodate the thousands that set their
faces toward the lake. Derryheld Park
was populous with visitors. The groves
in every direction were dotted with picnic
parties. The roads were everywhere en-
livened by unending professions of bi-
cycle riders. Whoever owned a horse and
carriage called them into requisition. BY
the great majority of the fifty odd thou
sand men, women and children who live
in our city, portion OF the day at least
was given to enjoyment and recreation.

Heavy Yield OF Corn.

This crop was raised on ten acres OF
clover soi, which had been under plow
and in grass for ten years without very
much manure. The field was pIowed IN
October and first half of November, not
over five inches deep. In the spring the
ground was simply narrowed, which put
IL ln the finest possible condition for
planting. Corn was planted about May
10th, ahd the ground narrowed just as tn
corn was coming through. The stand
was good and no hill had less than three
stalks; many had four and five. The cul-
tlvation was easy and the corn was laid
by at fourth blowing. The harvest was a
surprise, as the yield was nine hundred
bushels Of sound corn. Every ear was
matured. The cost of raising an acre of
corn depends upon so many conditions
That do not suppose any two of us will
agree. The most important thing, to my
mind. is big crop, and conditions are
not always the most favorable for that:
but thirty years of Iowa farming have
never witnessed complete failure in the

The Era of the Bicycle

This is the era of the bicycle, and nearly

By which he could fly his refusal of such

dreadfully stupid. Aud yet the bicycle
is most excelent substitute for wings.
By its use a man or woman with the
effort required to walk one milo can go
six miles; wings could not be much more
economical OF power. Every person who
can walk can ride bicycle; this method
of progression is open to all save the
very aged and infirm and to those dis
abled by accident or disease.
A while ago we now and then heard q
protest against riding because it was un-
dignitied and conspicuous. 1t merely
seemed so because it was unusual. l can

was seen riding on horse in any of our
cities the street urchins would set up

graceful art of equitation has been much

WHEN KING KIJOLLY FINDS

THIEF.
When King Kijoly hears thief
A-stealing apple pie,
He springs from bed in time so brief
In the twinl1ling of an eye
And down the pantry stairs
He tears,
TO catch the thief so sly.
But when the thief at last is caught,
Down on his knees he drops
And tells a tale of woe ana want;
How cold and hunger made him gaunt-
Food without money can't be bought
Till King Kiolly stops
His tale of woe,
And lets him 90
And he sends HIM home with cart and
horse
a cart with yellow wheels;
And gives him presents. too, of course,
And food for many meals;
Gifts for his wife ana children two
A pink umbrella lined with blue,
And whenever the horse his neck NAV swing.

that the work could be done without
any additional expense to the sub

He has made the mistake of thinking that
the incidents connected with the building
of the Central Pacific are unknown to
everybody but himself. 1t is not the build
ing of the road that the people of Califor-
MIA condemn him for, it is the manner OF
conducting it since and the method en-
ployed to use the money made from it for
the purpose of sitting competition and
fostering a monopoly. We all know that

mixing up its affairs that when the time

was that some OF the stock was held and
Voted by trustees and not only ap-
peareo upon the books of the corpora
ions as such, but were really and in fact
trustees Tor other persons. Their conten-
tlon was that trustee of stock has no au-
thorlty to destroy the corporation by
merging 1T in another corporation. To
this the Supreme Court answered that the
trustee IS the legal owner of the stock and
as against the corporation and all the
world no inquiry may be had trusting his
action In the premises except by those in
whose name he holds the stock. In cases
where the stock of constituent companies
is held by other corporations the Supreme
Court does not enter upon an ANALYSIS of
this phase of the subject.
Upon the issue of the bonds in question
the Supreme Court notices but two objec-
lions calling for special comment. First
as TO the sutficiency of the notice to stock
holders and OF the resolution passed at the
meeting in pursuance of the notice This
notice specifies in substance that the pur-
pose of the meeting was to consider and to
act upon the creation of bonded in
debtedness in the aggregate of $17, 5000 600.
The capital stock of the company was
$18, 100000, and under the law that the
amount of bonds for promissory notes is
sued for the payment of debts for con-
structing and completing a road must not
exceed in all the amount of the capital
stock, the Supreme Court held that this
issue was proper, and that the notice was
sufficient, as the proposed amount was
within this limit, and there was no exist
ing previous issue to invalidate it,
The second objection was as to the right
OF the stockholders to be represente ed and
have their votes cast by proxy. In cases
OF this kind the Supreme Court says that
the contention that two-thirds of the stock
at least must be voted in person might
have been eminently sound a century
since, but that the law of corporations has
undergone important changes in recent
years. Stockholders, the court says, have
the right to vote by proxy if the bylaws of
the corporation in which they hold stock
authorize the votes to be cast in that
manner.
In concluding, the opinion states that
the other objections raised by the APP
pelant have been examined infinitely and
no cause for reversal is discovered in them,
and that upon the whole record the Com
missioners are of the opinion that the
judgment appealed from should be
affirmed
Justice Harrison wrote short opinion,
in which he concurred in that portion
which declares that the proceedings for the
issue of bonds were in accordance with the
requirements of the statute, or in other
words in the purely legal aspect of the
case. In the other points of the opinion
he enters mild dissenting voice.
