Revenue Cutters.

Inc several measures WnlCn nave
been introduced in the house propos-
ing in different ways to reduce the
revenues of the state, such as the No
Curdy bill to give a larger proportion
of the Dow law taxes to the local gov
ernments, are likely to hold up for
some time all the new projects in the
way Of state institutions. If the state
does not proceed with the erection Of
a new statehouse or a judiciary build
ing, and the revenues are not i'm
paired, the condition Of the treasury
will be such as to admit OF liberal ap-
propriations for all the present insti-
tutions and leave a handsome balance.
The proposition to establish in con-
nection with the state institution for
imbecile youth an institution for the
custody Of adult imbeciles Of the state
is an old one for which its advocates
have waited long. A bill to provide
funds for its establishment has been
introduced by Senator Alexander. This
week 1t cam up for consideration, and

was no opposition in the senate to it
except that which came from the
finance committee. Chairman Crom-
ley stated that it was a serious ques-
tion whether any additional appropri-
ations could be made. They certainly
could not if the state revenue reducers
pending or any number of them were
passed. The only thing to do witE
the bill was done, namely, refer it to
the finance committee to be held until
the fate Of the revenue reducers is
known. All such measures will lodge
in the same hands temporarily.

UnrIghteous ELECTION Laws.

Senator Pughs bill to make it i'm
possible for a handful of people to
represent themselves to be a political
party and by such false representa-
tions to secure place on the Austria

law. II has passed the senate, and
unless there is remarkable differ
ence Of opinion in regard to the mat
ter in the lower house, 1t will soon
receive the sanction of that branch
There was but one negative vote on
the bill in the senate, and that was
cast by Senator Brorein. If this bill
had been passed before last falls elec-'
for the gold Democrats to secure the
10000 signatures necessary to secure
the insertion OF their ticket on IL
ballot, the result of the election show
ing that there were only about 200
voters IN the state who intended to
vote the ticket BY the passage of
the Schafer bill in the senate this
week, twin evil in the state election
law is half wiped out. Reference is

Pecan Nut Industry.
From the Boston Transcript.

Perhaps the best of all nuts is that
species of hickory known as the pecan.
1t is native TO the United States, grow
ing wild in the Mississippi valley and
in Texas. The largest and finest nuts
comes from Louisiana, soma specimens
attaining length of two inches and a
diameter of three quarters of an inch
Com ps ratively few from that state
reach the north, however. In Bee coun-
TT. Texas, pecans are grown with very
thin she lis, chat may be crushed in the
fingers.
In Texas the Pecan industry has OBJ
tanned great Importance. Thousands
of people, white and black: make liv-
ing by gathering the wild mute, while
many plantations of the trees have
been set out and are already in bear
ing. So long ago as 1880 1850 900
pounds of The nuts were marketed in
San A ntonio. OF all the hickory fam
| lily, the pecan seems more suscepti Die
of improvement in the size and quality
of the fruit, and much has been accom-
plished in this direction by planters
| exercising JUDGMENT in the collection
of varieties. One planter of Brown
wood, Texas, has 400 acres of pecans,
comprising II 600 trees.

HALEvY'S SURPRISE.
Opera Air Whistled ON the Street Re-
fore Its Production.

Opera Air Whistled ON the Street Re-
fore Its Production.
When Halevy, the noted composer Of
"The Jewess" and other successful operas,
was economizing strictly just before the
production of 1.-THE Mnsketeers Of the
Queen" at the Opera Comique, in Paris,
q singular incident occurred, according to
his own story. His bank account was all
but exhausted, and he walked back and
forth between dwelling and theater to
save expenses.
He was counting heavily on big suo.
cess for the new opera. Everybody at the
rehearsals was enraptured with the music
and prophesied great popularity for 1t.
One day after leaving the theatsr Halevy
was walking along the boulevard and no.
ticed presently that . man few steps
ahead Of him was Whaling loudly-an
objectionable sin among we'll bred people
in Paris. The air the man was whistling
struck him rs familiar at first. Then sud
denly 1t dawned upon him that 1t was the
principal melody Of his new opera.
The composer quiokened his pace and,
overtaking the whistler, saw that he was
workingman. He aocosted him, saying
quietly:
my good man, do you know what you
are doinga Do you know that there are
not two men In Paris that can whistle
that melody"
The stranger looked at Halevy with q
puzzled expression and asked simply.
"WhyP"
"Simply because no one else knows
the song as yet"
lis that SOP How do you know"
1T is true. 1t Is part Of the new opera
which is now being rehearsed in the Opera
Comique. Now, won't you be good enough

QUEER PLACE FOR A BIRDS NEST.

Horns Of 4 Buffalo,

Built In the Thick Hair Between the
Horns Of nsaalo.
1t was good many years ago that old
Hugh Monroe, who for more than rs years
had travelled the prairies of the northwest,
told me that once he had found bird
nest In the thick hair between the no, lid
Of buffalo bull that he had killed He
had two Indians with him, and had killed
the young bull, which the Indians were
beginning to skin and cut up, and while
they were doing this he plucked some of
the long hair from the forehead to use in
= wipfng ont his gun. As he reached down
and grasped the hair little bird-a little
gray bird-few out from under his hand
and away. Parting the hair to soc whence
1t had come, he found o round, smooth
nest, containing four little young birds.
He could not tell what kind Of birds they
were.
Some time after, when was sitting In
the lodge with my Indian father and elder
brothers, principal chiefs Of the Blackfeet,
Ispoke Of this tale that had been told me,
and learned that all who were present had
heard Of just this thing. On .esta .pokau,

Once, however, he did see the nest of q
snowbird, containing four eggs, between
the horns Of bull. Inquiry, followed by
a careful and detailed description, showed
that the bird which the Blaokfeet call
snowbird was the prairie shore lark.
