TUESDAY, JUNE ?, 1893

SENATOR LODGE struck o patriotic
keynote which should find congenial
response in the breast of every Sena-
tor and Representative when he said;
81 am firmly impressed with the idea
that we ought not only to pass the rev.
enue measure. but every other bill
which the administration desires as
war measure, and do SO speedily. SO
far as am concerned, / am unwilling
that Congress should adjourn until all
of the measures demanded by the ex-
igencies of war, Of whatever nature
those measures may be, shall have been
enated into law. Anxious as / am for
an early adjournment will never give
my vote to proposition to adjourn
until the President has been afforded
every bit of legislative aid he desires
in the prosecution of the war"

A Capable Young Man.

John S. Donaghho, who is engaged
in various branches Of study at the Le-
land Stanford University at Palos
Alto, California. is an applicant for the
position of superintendent of schools
made vacant by the resignation of w.
NJ. Straus.
Mr.. Donaghho is an old Parkersburg
boy and is thoroughly equipped for the
position. He was engaged in school
work here several years ago. having
served as assistant principal at the
High School and was afterwards q
professor at Marietta College. He
made an application for the superin-
tendency of public schools at Seattle
prior to the vacancy here, but would
forego the appointment there if he
could get the home appointment

LAST HIPPO. IN NATAL.
Strange Creatures of the Earth. One
by One, Are Disappearing
Forever.

The last hippopotamus has been
slaughtered in Natal. All the larger
and more curious creatures are dis
appearing so fast that this will be a
monotonous world, at any rate for nat
uralists, in another century. Not so
long ago the hippopotamus haunted the
rivers of Cape Colony and Natal, and
.lake COW bacon" as the salted layer
of fat underlying the hide is called,
was a favoriae dish; but now this huge
creature has disappeared from both
countries. The hunter has been its
enemy for many century, but the
rifle is far more deadly weapon than
the assegai, says the London Standard.
The animal has an appetite proper
tional 10 its bulk, and can accommodate
good deal of vegetable produce. Be-
sides this. it is wasteful feeder, tramp
ling down and tearing up much more
than it consumes, and i, prefers culti-
vaied plants to wild vegetation. That
has proved its doom in Natal.
One herd was left at Seacow lake, a
coast lagoon near Durham, and was pro-
tected by the government. 1t consisted
of parents and a family of five. I'm
fortunately, these. like young people
all the world over, loved "sweeties," !"
and made nocturnal raids on the neigh
boring sugar cane plantations. The
owners petitioned the government, a
warrant of execution was granted, and
the parental bull, who must have been
nearly so years old, was the last to fall,
and will henceforth be only an EEK
hibit" in the Durham museum.
So the strange creatures of the earth
disappear before the white man, the
great destroyer. The hippopotamus,
the elephant and the giraffe, to speak
only of Africa. with many kinds of
antelopes. are rapidly diminishing in
numbers.

Fell Sixteen Feet.

Little Myrtle Hyde, the four-year'
old child of Mr.. and Mrs. o. P. Hyde,
Front street, met with an accident
Monday afternoon about o'clock, from
which she miraculously escaped death.
The little girl and an older sister
were playing in the bathroom on the
second floor and the little one ap-
preached window in which there was
screen. She ran against the screen
in some manner, and it gave way, pre-
cipitsting her to the ground below.
She alighted on the ground, head-fore-
most, and her face was badly bruised
on one side, and her nose was broken.
The little girl will, it is thought.
suffer no serious consequences, and
will make a speedy and safe recovery.
1t was an extremely narrow escape.

WORSHIP OF THE SHAKERS
In Stately Manner They March Into
Church by Twos 20 the sing
Ing of Their Rymns.

Sabbath worship is usually conduct
ed at the public church, where visitors
from the world are free TO attend.
writes Madeline S. Bridges, of the
Shakers of Mt. Lebanon, y. Y, In
Ladies' Home Journal. Four sisters
and four brethren stand in the center
Of the room and form a double guar
tette. The Shaker dance, 80 miscalled,
is in reality a more or less stately march,
in which all the members join--tbe
brethren IN procession, two by two,
followed by the sisterhood in ike or
der. They move in step TO the hymns
they. are singing, either slowly or
quickly, as the measure of the time de-
mands. The ritual is of the sim
plest. Testimony of faith ferventiy
uttered by those who feel impelled TO
speak, few earnest words of ex-
hortation from the elders, the march
and the singing OF hymns.
Something curious IN regard 10 these
Shaker hymns is the fact that they are
claimed TO be largely inspirational-
the music and words come together "as
gifts" and frequently to those who are
not musical. For instance, very often
q tap will sound on the door CT mu.
sical sister, and an uanusical sister
will enter with the announcement:
Sister, song has just come to me
Can you take the words ard note ii for
me?"

BIRDS IN THE CHOIR LOFT.
Preacher with an Outburst
of Natures Melody.

In a certain Methodist Episcopal
church uptown the choir loft is profuse-
ly decorated with palms and other
growing plants, and among the green
foliage hang two gilded cages, each
containing asweet-singing canary, says
the Philadelphia Record. During the
opening musical service the birds, en-
couraged to emulate the melody of the
organ, frequently burst into song, but
after that they invariably tuck their lit
tie heads away beneath their wings
and sleep during the pastors sermon,
just as though they were regular mem
bers of the congregation. One Sunday
evening, however, the birds were rest
less for some reason or other, and
sudden ally, during pausein the sermon,
there ernanated from the choir loft a
few joyous notes sweeter than any
salaried soprano in all this broad world
could ever hope to utter. The next mo-
ment the other bird had joined in, and
a ripping food of melody went foa ting
through the church. The pastor stood
and gazed appreciatively in the direc-
tion of the choir loft. The members Of
the congregation sat in hushed admira-
ton of the gratuitous song. For fully
three minutes the two little songsters
had full sway, and poured out perfect
cascade of trills and quivers and de-
licious crescendos. When the melody
finally ceased the preacher, before re-
suming his discourse, remarked: ~ do
not know what l would not give TO be
able TO preach sermon half so good
rs that"

A peculiar incident occurred short
time ago to Scotch express, which re
ally caps the story of the mouse which
got into the brake apparatus of a train
and soon brought it to complete
standsall. While on a steep incline a
mile or so from Invershin the train
suddenly slowed up and eventually
stopped. After an examination il
transpired that myriads of midges had
been swarming near the ground, and,
being crushed by the wheels of the
train had left the rails in very Shiny
condition, preventing the engine from
gripping the rails, and so stopping ii.
Although several lodges were tried,
among them that of throwing earth
along the line, the train was unable to
proceed untilrit was divided into Sec
tions and drawn up the Incline piece
meal. This incident caused delay OF
nearly an hour.

GOT THE GOLDFISH.
An onice. Seeker becomes Convinced
That Hfs Mission Was Not
q Total Failure. --...-

"a friend of mine who came on TO
Washington after pretty high Office
lately returned home, but he dldn':
get what he went after" said Mr.. j.
G. Smedley, of Wisconsin, to Washing
ton Post man.
HE is one of the best-natured fellows
in the world, and, though disappointed,
took his failure with excellent good
humor. He told the story of his ex-
perience at the capital with great gusto.
At first, he said, his standard was
pretty high. He wanted to be minister
to some of the minor powers, or at
least consul-general. When he found
out that all these places were given
out he agreed to go as mere consul
to any old place the administration
might send him. But he couldn't land
even $1,000 foreign job, at which he
wasn't cast down, for he didn't much
want to leave the United States any
way.
"Then he thought that place in
some of the departments in Washing
ton might suit, and an active search for
something eligible was started. The
hunt panned out bad and his hackers
had to own up that they were unable to
do thing. The jig was up, but at the
last moment he remembered that all
his life he had wanted some goldfish, so
he went to Senator Blank, who had tried
to fix him in Office, and asked if he'd
use his influence to get a few goldfish.
This time be struck it right; the SEN
ator was three AS on the fish ques-
ton, and my friend came home con-
vinced thatghis mission here had not
been total failure"

COMPARING NOTES.
Faults Which n Polite Couple Found
with One Another Cause
a Goodness.

'Why can't women be natural? ?'
growled Bumpley, according to the De
troit Free Press. "They make me think
of lot of bluejays with their clatter
and their pluming and their efforts tn
improve on nature. They can think of
more crazy plans and develop more un-
miugated nonsense than SO many in
spired imps. Look at your hair, Mrs.
Bumpley, plated and twisted and f1uted
and banged till it looks no more like
what it does in its normal state than a
junk pile looks like any of its original
elements. And those sleeves and those
three-story heels and that stiff-necked
collar. Honestly, if men compelled you
to rig up in that barbarous fashion
you'd inveigh against them as brutal
savages."
''Oh, don't know" said Mrs. Bump
ley, who is very matter of fact; "con-
template your own hair. Looks as
though it were laundered down on top
and nodded over puff combs on the
side. The shoulders of your coat are
built up as though you were trying to
palm yourself off for prize-fghter ana
the way that your mustache is twisted
up at the ends makes me think of
French dancing master on a reception
night"
Then Bumpley grew very distant in
his manner, arranged to go downtown
at once, told his wife not to sit up for
him and said that if she had one fault
above another it lay in her irrepressible
disposition to grow personal whenever
she entered into debate

$4,000 Tons of Ice.

Among the many expenses borne by
railroad companies the ice bill figures
quite prominently. For instance, on
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad it is
expected it will take $4,000 tons Of ice
this year to meet the requirements of
the service. The greater portion is
used in connection with shipments OF
perishable goods; the balance in the
passenger service. A great deal Of
this is put mp by the company in it's
own ice houses, but as the past winter
has been SO warm . very large proper
tion will have to be purchased.
