"Gentlemen of the Senate and House
of Delegates:-Th people of our State.
at this time particularly, expect and de-
mand a reassessment law, a fair election
law and a civil service law My views
on these measures have been expressed
in my inaugural address. and | most
earnestly recommend them for your
prompt consideration and enactment.
''In any laws covering these subjects,
the Executive il usually required to
nominate, and the Senate to confirm,
various appointees, upon whose capacity
and efficiency the success Of such reforms
will, in a great measure, depend. The
early passage of such laws will increase
the faith of the people in their chosen
representatives, as well a. insure ample
time to nominate and confirm.

why kissing is Pleasant.

The reason kissing is so pleasant, says
an oscuiatory expert of scientific tenden-
cies, is because the teeth, jaw bones and
lips are full of nerves, aud when the lips
of persons meet an electric current Is
generated. and you don't have to have a
dynamo machine Tor battery in the
house, nor call box, nor button to
touch to ring up the central office. and
there is no patent on it, and the poorest
trio current better than the millionaire
and it never gets out of order. If Edi-
son had invented kissing it would cost
SlO0 year, like the telephone. and then
extra kissing would be charged up extra,
and if you didn't pay for it they would
take out your kissaphone and disconnect
you from the central Office. -Ex.

An Instructive Entertainment.

One of the most interesting and in
structive entertainments was given at
st. Mary's Hall last night by the Very
Rev. Father Henning, consisting of
stereopticon views of Home and Abroad.
The Rev. Father was called to Rome
two Years ago on the occasion of the cleo
ton of a SUPERIOR General of his order.
and while travelling through Italy,
Algene and France he took tho many
interesting views he exhibited and pre-
pared them himself for the stereoscOpe
Enough cannon be said of his collection
and his views of the ruins of Ancient
Rome cannot be surpassed. The in-
teIesting and accurate description of
the Rev. Father made the whole a rare
treat. Father Henning will exhibit
again tonight as advertised.

Senator Talbot has submitted list
of democrats for appointment rs super

of Baltimore city, Senator Bruce Thought
