Martin, populist member of congress
from the Sixth North Carolina district,
is believed to be demented from too

scene in the house lobby by making
speeches to an imaginary audience,
taking the financial question for his
theme. So eccentric were his actions
that his friends were notified and they
took him awaY from the cnpitol.

GOLF IN GREENWICH.

Greenwich, March 26.-Improvements
and increased facilities for the more
perfect enjoyment of golf are being
made and provided on the grounds of
the Fairfield County Golf club before
the season begins. The plans include
the construction of another house on
the grounds, which will cost about
$4,000, and the contract has already
been awarded to ]. P. Crosby. The
work of building will begin Immediate
ly and the house will be completed
about June 1. Golfing is rivaling yacht
ing as a pastime in Greenwich, and in
the coming season golf will lead, as the
interest in the game is spreading to all
classes. There is certainly great fas-
cinat!on in it, for those who inaugural
ed the game here have, apparently,
lost none of their enthusiasm over it,
and beginners seem to be carried away
with the sport. Perhaps the chief rea-
son for it's popularity over yachting is
the matter of expense. as the cost of
becoming an expert player is compar-
atively small.

Probably the finest specimens of inn
promptu wit are heard among palan-
quin bearers and boatmen. Mr.. Cover
has story of a very stout gentleman
who hired palanquin bearers to carry
him to the summit of the Neilgheny
hills. Being either irnpecunious or IL
liberal, he failed to offer a handsome
present in consideration Of his extra
weight. He was a perfect master of
low Tamil. Hardly had the palan-
quin begun to ascend the hill when his
discipline commenced. Mile after mile
produced a portrait Of him and his an
cestors by some new hand. 1t was I'M
dignified to protest: it was beyond hui
man nature to be patient. He foamed
with rage. He ordered them to be
quiet so that he could sleep. For a
while they obeyed and then again be-
gan that monotonous wall about car
rying a mountain up mountain.
| The bearers gained their end, but not
| in their own way. The traveller dis
missed them several miles from the
summit Hours afterwards he crawled
| into Conoor-a sorrowful victim of
| Dravidian impromptu.
Boatmen, too, have to sing as they
| work in order to move in perfect uni
son. Under constant practice they be-
come accomplished singers. The ST.
newy bodies of the swarthy boatmen
sway to and fro with each mighty
stroke, leader shouting out line by
| line in perfect time some lively song,
each oarsman answering with an anti
| phonaI "Yel-le." They seem to enjoy
their work, but probably if the passen-
ger could understand their lingo he
would think otherwise. The following
song, of which 1 quote but portion, is
one much in vogue at Madras. Most
of these men are Catholics and their
| song sets forth a scriptural theory of
work.
When time began-the mighty Lord
Created man-with but word.
| Men broke the law-our God had made,
Nor stood in awe-of what he bade.

 THE CITY'S WEALTH-City Col lector Foster yesterday finished foot ing ths city assessment roll. It amounts to S3,733, ,50S.S3, as agains. 8, ,544 ,906.62 last year. The increase in the aggregate value is much more than is apparent, for there has been deducted from the assessment Of three banks S120,000. There has been be- side 9 looping off of othsr items which helped make up the assessment roll a year ago. It is possible that the nat ural increase in values has fallen moi far short of half million. The tax on this years assessment will amount to S33,270.SS.
 THE SOLID NORTH" = The friends of Col. J. F. Wilson in this city are spreading the news that "the north is solid for him" Republicans in Phoenix are grieved and surprised at this information They were not aware that the north was going to ex- press itself before November 8. It is believed that the election by which the north went solid for Wilson may be set aside on the ground of irregu- iarity as to the time of holding it, the absence of the usual proclamations and a failure to send in the official vote Secretary Akers says no returns have yet been received at his office. It is probable that the solid north will hold another election on November S.
 YOUTHFUL VAGS.- Two youthful vags were in police court yesterday morning. One was 15 years old and the ether 16. Thsy were put on the chain gang for thirty days. The boys were California importations. The at tenticn of Officer Mollay was called to them by one Of them carrying around pair Of high priced shoes, almost new. His explanations Of his pos session of them were various. conflict ing and unreasonable. He said stranger had given them to him to hold and was going to meet him at the Palace and relieve him Of his burden. The stranger did not appear, but the young man was faithful to his trust and carried the footwear around with him until he was arrested. There were also three varieties of drunkS in court.
 ROURGOUGNON'S FUNERAL. - The funeral Of M. Bourgougnon, who died from the effects of rattlesnake bite, was held from the Catholic church at i o'clock yesterday afternoon and temporary interment was made in the Phoenix cemetery. Severay thoughtful residents Of Phoenix sent in bouquets Of roses and white oleanders, which adorned the coffin, and a number of -the acGuaintanceS and friends of the deceased attended the remains to their silen. resting place. It is stated as a curious fact that the fangs of the rattlesnake were received in the vein located Immediately between the first and second fingers Of the left hand and the poison of the reptile was taken immediately to the heart of the de- ceased. The action Of the virus was therefore much more rapid and power ful than if the bite Of the snake had been on a fieshy part alone.
