Especial Correspondence
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2I.-Within the
next ten days the Fifty-sixth congress
will be in session, and the season of ac-
tivity, legislative and social, will be
fairly opened in the national capital.
Many senators and representatives are
already here, and those who have not
yet arrived have sent their clerks and
agents ahead to make arrangements
for their coming. The job hunters are
here in force. Every new congress has
to contend with these personages. and
they come in shoals. There is, how
ever, little probability that there will
be many material changes in the per-
sonnel Of the employees of the senate
and house. So it is likely to transpire
that great majority Of the faithful

Very respectfully,
{. a. HASTINGS
The county indebtedness accumulated
from Jan. I, 1891 to Jan. 1, 1899 was
800. 900, an average of SII,25o per annum.
The statement shows that county affairs
have been managed this year so that not
one cent of new debt has been added
and that $1,000 of the old debt has been
lifted by the payment of three court
house bonds. Over $4,000 more has been
spent on the county roads than was spent
last year and their improved condition is
highly creditable. The levy of this year
raises sIII56 for the maintenance of the
public schools over S5742 raised by the
/ levy of last year.
| The tax payer can find no fault with q
condition that gives improved roads, inn
proved schools and decrease of indebted
ness.

Times of Trouble and Sorrow.

There are periods in life, years and
years. when no great trouble visits us.
Then the storms of sorrow fall, then
We are apt to say, I have passed
through the fire and may hope fer an
immunity for the future. 1t is not so.
The troubles may come back again.
they may come back again worse. AZ
has been said our Pharaohs are seldom
drowned in the Red Sea, and we do
not often behold their corpses stretched
upon the sand. The bitterness of death
may come again. What then? At the
very worst the memory CT the past
will help us. We shall retrace the
slow, difficult way to peace; our trust
in God will be deepened, and we shall
realize that, after all, the range Of
sins and sorrows is limited, though the
sea of troubles may roll its white-crest-
ed pillows ~shoreward as far as the hor-
lion. What are truly numberless are

Progressive Fish Propagation.

The yearly report of United States
Fish Commissioner John J. Brico
shows that $50. 600, 900 of Goldfish eggl
were collected, from which 90, 600, 600
of cod fry were liberated on the
natural spawning grounds along the
coast of Massachusetts. This was Oh
excess yer the previous year of about
40, 900, 900. OF winter founders the
output was over 81, 900, 900 of fry from
about 3d. 90, 900 of spawn. The work
of propagating Holsters has been
largely extended, and, although there
was a poor catch of females with eggs,
over 1913, 900, 600 of spawn was secured,
from which were produced over 49,
600, 900 OF fry, an increase of 20, OO0,-
600 over the output of the previous
year. OF shad spawn over O3, 600, 900
were secured, some IS, 600, 900 more
than during the previous year. OF
whiteish the take of eggs was 2O0,-
600, 600; of lake trout, Is, 900, 900; OF
Atlantic salmon, 5000, 900; of land
locked salmon, 1000, 900; of quinnat
salmon, rs, 900, 900, and season for
these had not ended when the report
was compiled. To test the probable
value of the quinnat salmon in Eastern
waters 1000, 900 of fry were liberated
last spring in the st. Lawrence, Hud-
son, and Delaware Rivers in New York,
and in the Indian and Penobscot
Rivers in Maine, and 250,000
held to be liberated when yearlings in
the Penobscot.

Henry Georges Reply.

The late Henry George, after his adj
dresses on the land tax theory, always
invited his hearers to ask questions,
which he delighted in answering. In
1883, after q lecture at Howard Uni
versity in Washington, q Western Con-
gresham, accepting the invitation,
said:
"After all, Mr.. George, you advocate
a system of confiscation of property.
If I should take wild land and cult
vate and beautify it, would have won
undisputed title to the land itself, and
you should recognize my proprietor
ship in it,"
This sally won loud applause from
the audience, but the applause was
deafening when Mr.. George had flung
back this reply:
ST thought I had explained that oil
improvements ought by rightto belong
to the improver. On that we agree.
I go farther. All that you produce
out Of the land by your labor should
belong to you. If I should see you
sitting on the seashore fishing and
should see you catch o large fish, OF,
in other words, bring forth or produce
that fish, I should maintain your right
to it as your property, to use, to sell,
to giveor bequeath but I'll be hanged,
sir, if I'll agree that you own the
ocean from which you produce that
fish. Land stands in the same rela-

on new or unsealed boilers was we'll

when q new water supply was intro

available for city consumption. The
former supply had been poor and Sal
careous and old boilers were much
coated with lime scale. To the dismay
of the users, those who had put IN
new boilers or new tubes found them
rapidly corroding, while the old scaled
and coated boilers remained as before;
tnose, too, who had removed every
possible trace OF old i~ncrustation from
their old boilers by mechanical or
chemical means, intending thus to get.

He Held His Own

During the recent heavy fog in New
York o young man named Kingsley
was standing on q corner early in the
morning waiting for q car. when he
saw a very tough looking man ap-
proach him. Kingsley was three miles
from homo and had only a nickel,
which he was holding tightly in his
hand for fear that it might be lost.
The stranger reached the young man,
and, just as the latter thought,
proved to be a highwayman. He or
dered Kingsley to throw up his hands
and then he proceeded to go through
his pockets. As the victim put up
his hands he managed to slide the
nickel into his mouth. The robber
found no money. and, taking stock of
Kingsley's good clothes, at once made
another search. Finally he became
enraged, and remarking, You're a
pretty chap to be at large at this hour
Of the morning." dealt Kingsley a
blow in the mouth, landing him on the
pavement and at the same time caus-
ing him to swallow the nickel. As
as he got his breath Kingsley
shouted for help, andtwo officers, who
were near at hand, succeeded in catch.

to be m old convict. -Bnffalo Express
