Of the Code of West Virginia, concern
ing records to the Supreme Court OF
Appeals. Judiciary.
BY Mr.. Hervey, H. B. 81, to amend
Sec. of Chap. 20 Of the acts of 1888,
entitled An act to establish the indie
pendent school district of New Cum
berland,' in Hancock county. Educa-
ton.
by Mr.. woodward, H. B. 312. to
amend Sec. OF Chap. 70 of the Code,
in relation to the authorization OF
deeds and other writings. On motion
OF the same gentleman, the rules were
suspended, reference to a committee
dispensed with and the bill read first
time and ordered to its second read
ing.
Mr. Brannon explained H. B. 203,
concerning insane convicts, providing
for the return Of insane convicts to
the penitentiary, after their recovery.
Under the law, all convicts had to do
to escape the penitentiary was to go
insane. He asked that the indefinite
postponement of the evening before be
reconsidered at such time as suited
the convenience of the House.
Mr.. Smith, of Ohio, objected on the
ground that the Code already provid-
ed for such a contingency. Action de-
ferred
H. J. r. SO, concerning the West
Virginia reports, was called UP. Mr..
Smith, Of Ohio seriously criticized the
manner in whieh the printing and
bending was done, saying it was imita-
ton and did not fulfill the require
ments, and moved reference of the res
olution to the committee on Taxation
and Finance. Adopted.
H. B. PIT, to provide additional rev.
enues for the State by increasing the
license taxes OF corporations and joint
stock companies, came up on its third
reading and passage. -. .1Is
Mr.. Kenney criticized the action of
the House in railroading the bill
through, critieizing the questionable
methods resorted to- Everything per-
tanning to its introduction was steal
thily done, No member of the House
or other person had any knowledge of
the amendments or the bill as amend
ed, except Reynolds, a gentleman from
Boston, and few State ofioials-the
latter actively lobbying on the floor
OF the House, in violation Of our stat
ute, for the passage pf this ubiquitous,
nefarious and INFAMOUS scheme in IA
vor of the trusts and against the rights
and interest OF our people Mr.. Kenney
called attention to how the bill was
put through to third reading. under
whip and spur. When the minority
was refused recognition, and the ma
Jority violated the promises made in
reference to it. On the previous day
the member from Mineral county and
the member from Ohio had promised
to give them one days notice, but fall
ed to do 80. He claimed the bill was
framed in the interests of the trusts
to pay campaign debt. Bona fde
amendments offered by the Democrats
were ignored. The member from Mich
olas county and the member from CAL
houn demanded that the bill be read
section by section for amendments
Mr.. Reynolds raised the point that
committee amendments should have
right OF way and be considered first,
which the majority said was satisfac-
tory, provided their demand should
u be granted, go they could offer
amendments. This was agreed
t4by Mr.. Reynolds and the Speaker

FORTUNE FROM A WHIPPING
sixty $4,000 Lashes Started Ono Man
to Great wealth.

There died recently in San Francisco
John Magee, one of the wealthiest resi-
dents of that city of millionaires says
the New York Press. John Magee's
Immense fortune came originally as
result of a logging which he received
in San Jose, Guatemala, in 1874. In
that year Magee was British consul
lar agent in San Jose. He fell out
with the military commander there,
one Colonel Gonzales. Gonzales threat
ened and stormed, but Magee defed
him. Thereupon the colonel took Ma
gee from his consulate, ignoring the
protection Of the British flag, and or
dered him to be fiogged for his con-
tumacy. He got 60 lashes on his bare
back and then was thrown into prison.
A British man-of-war came steaming
into the harbor of San Jose, and a
wrathful man was her commander.
He demanded that Magee be delivered
over to him Immediately under penalty
of blowing the town sky high. Magee
was given up, but that did not close
the incident. Unless an apology for
the insult to the British flag was made
Immediately by the government Of
Guatemala, the flag saluted and an in
demnity paid to Magee the British gov
ernment threatened direful things
Guatemala appealed to the United
States, but this country replied that
the Monroe doctrine did not protect lit
tie Central American republics In COM
mltting such outrages as that perpe-
trated by Colonel Gonzales. and Guate-
mala was advised to comply with the
just British demands Thereupon the
government Of Guatemala offered to
pay Magee 100000, 5000 for every
lash he had received. The apology and
the salute of the British flag were also
forthcoming.
Now, this amount cannot be found
every day in the treasury OF Central
American republic, and while the gov
ernment of Guatemala might agree to
pay the sum the collecting of 1t would
probably be delayed and attended with
trouble and complications. SO Magee
said to the Guatemalan government
that he really could not distress 1t
financially by accepting such n large
amount of money, but would be con-
tent to call 1t square for certain con-
cessions which would cost II nothing.
Magee got the concessions at once, and
they included the right to establish a
bank in San Jose and the building of
wharfs in that port. The government
was so grateful to him because he had
not insisted on cash that he was pro-
tected in his monopoly every way, and
thus he laid the foundation of his enor-
nous fortune.

What will the population OF London
be in 1850? This Is no mere question
of curiosity. 1t must shortly engage
parliament, for it is because the an
swers given to it are SO divergent that
London's water supply question is 50
complex. Each plan that is proposed
for insuring to Londoners enough wa
ter to drink and battle in is based on
calculation OF London's probable popu-
latioh so years hence. Royal commits
sions and experts have put the figure
at anything from 100000 to 50,000,-
900. Other authorities denounce these
conjectures as absurd, and an increase
to 100000 Is predicted as the more
likely imitation. A city of that popula-
tion is sufficiently appalling to put one
in love with the still more sober esti-
mate OF Mr.. Pryce Williams, who in a
paper read some years ago before the
Statistical society argued that limit
is placed on all sublunary things and
that the breaking point in London's
growth will be reached when her chill

NICK Kin1ey's Black Suit.

A suit Of clothes made of black wool.
en- cloth which has never been through
the dye tub is probably the most re-
markable costume that President Nc
kinley has ever owned. That he can
wear it, as one Of very few men who
have enough Of the wool to make a suit
OF clothes, Is due to the courtesy OF
George w. Peterson, who owns flock
Of 70 black sheep. the only really black
flock in the country. Mr.. Peterson has
also given Senator Platt a quantity OF
the same cloth. No dye of any sort
was used, and the wool Is as pure In
color and texture as when it came from
the sleeps backs.
AS this is the only known instance
in which black cloth has been made
without dyeing the wool, President Nc.
kinley will be marked man when he
appears in his priceless suit of clothes.

pense and with much care.-Exchsnge.

A LONG JOURNEY.

THE United States is getting pretty
big in a postal sense as well as terri
torial," said postotfice inspector,
land for cents a piece of mail can
have a good run for the money. Sup
pose we put in a spare moment in see
ing what may be done for . cents,
though Il copy of The Star carrying u
penny stamp goes as far as a letter.
"A reader of The Star writes from
Manila for a copy of the paper. 1t
would be sent him under the second
class mail matter rate of l cent a
pound, but, as the public understands
the regular newspaper rate of four
ounces for l cent, We will take that as
a basis for our figuring.
at is mailed in Washington and
travels $3.50 miles to San Francisco
and thence approximately 5000 miles
to Manila, stopping en- route at Homo
lulu, which, by the way, is 2,0S9 miles
from San Francisco. In the meantime
the subscriber has returned to the
United States to his home In Eastport,
Me, having left directions at Manila
for the forwarding of his mail. The
paper is returned by the next steamer,
and in due time it travels back over
the same route, covering this time
about $500 miles to the most eastern
city in the United States.
This particular subscriber happened
to be of Il rowing disposition, md be-
fore the paper arrived at Eastport he
had skipped out for Cape Nome, Alaska.
He wished to keep in touch with
Washington affairs, however, so he
left another forwarding order with the
postmaster, and the paper faithfully
followed him to the goldfields, an addl-
tional distance of 6.T00 miles, making
a total journey thus far OF %, 450 miles.
'If the paper were tired at this stage
OF the chase, the subscriber was not,
and when it reached Cape Nome there
was another forwarding order await
ing II, this time to Sitka, Alaska, q far
ther distance of 1850 miles, as the
mail route is somewhat roundabout in
the arctic seas.
IF the pursuing paper had been
detective, he would have exclaimed,
Fooled again! scowled and bit his lip.
The subscriber had had enough of trav
el by this time and had started for
home; but, desiring to read this partic-
ular number of The STAR he had left
still further forwarding order, so the
paper, or, rather, what was left of il,
was tossed in a mail bag and shipped
to the States. If it came in by the way
Of San Francisco, it Travelled 1902
miles and thence to Eastport $500
miles farther, arriving somewhat bat
tered, but still in the ring, after a total
journey of no less than 2,602 miles,

speeches and seems to find something

Elephant who Earns Hi. Board

James Cahill of Roney's Point is the
only person in West Virginia and prob
ably in the United States who has In
regular use upon his farm an elephant
which is used for farm work. With
the swaying beast hitched up to a plow
he can turn more ground than any
Of his neighbors with team Of horses,
and when it comes to hauling logs the
elephant will walk away with ease
with logs which the best teams Of his
neighbors cannot move.
The elephant eats little more than a
horse and does many times the work
of one, is gentle and docile and causes
little trouble, and Mr.. Cahill is more
than pleased with his experiment. Mr..
Cahill bought the elephant from a
stranded circus proprietor.-Ba Baltimore
