The Postoffice clerks Of this city keenly dis
appointed Al the failure Of Congress pass bill
which would amelorate their condition. They are
not discouraged, however, and second meeting
was held by them yesterday in Schutzenbund Hall.
In St Marks Place. This meeting was under the
auspices of the NewYork Branch OF the National
Association OF Postofice Clerks. An interesting
report was made by Otto F. Weiss. chairman of
the Legislative Committee who explained the diff
culties the various committees of postoffice en-
ployes had had TO get Congress interested in their

however, that the largely increased appropria ton

S. CHRIsTY MEAD SUGGESTS CHANGE IN THE
TITLE. TO INSURE CoNsTITUTIoNALITY
S. Christy Mead, the assistant secretary OF the
Merchants Association said yesterday that he had
sent 10 State Senator Slater letter suggesting an
amendment 10 the title of the Ramapo Repeal bill.
prevent possible danger that the bill may
be unconstitutional The letter said in part:
It is clear 10 my mind that the body of the bill
treats on one subject, and one only, namely, alter
alton OF the powers of the Ramapo Water Com
pany But on analyzing the title of the bill IL ap-
pears that the title expresses three subjects
power. Section Is OF Article iii of the COnstitu-
ton, as you will recall. provides that bills Of
ject. and that shall be expressed in the title 80
Hence il seems 10 me that there is weakness and
question OF constitutOnality, owing TO the fact
that the title does not clearly express subject,
and one only.
Senator Slater is requested in the letter to have
such change made in the title OF the bill as 10
remove the question Of constitutonality.
OF other Ramapo legislation Mr Mead said yes
terday:
and is now in the hands of the Mayor for his ap-
proval, amending Section 472 Of the CITY Charter
restores TO New-York City full and ample rights
Of condemnation. Under this bin and the powers
have been acquired by the Ramapo Water Com
pany be condemned by the city under the
any other corporation individual. In other
words. by this amended repeal bill the Ramapo
Water Company is deprived OF its undue and ex-
traordinary powers. and IS placed the same
Laws Of 1890. and by the amendment Of Section 472
Of the City Charter New-York City is enabled 70
take the Ramapo property, in case II needs IT, just
as II is enabled TO take the property of any one

was a good one, because IL would keep these en-

VINES IN HOMES,
Peanut Plants Make Pretty Orname ent
 for the Boudoir.


 Few persons are perhaps aware that thing Of beauty is a common peanut plant, growing singly in d six or e1sht-inch pot and grown indoors during tke colder months Kept in a warm room or by the kitchen stove a peanut kernel planted in a pot Of lose mellow lOam, kept only moderate ly n.list, will soon germinate and grow up into a beautiful plant. 1t ie in similar way that the peanut plant CTS test their seeds every year, begin ming even early in the winter, and the facility with which the seeds will grow in this way has suggested to many southern flower lovers the pos sibility of making the useful plant an ornamental plant for the parlor or sit ting room window. AS the plant in- creases in size and extends it's branch eS over the sides of the pot in a pen dant maner, there are few plants O. more intrinsic beauty. The curious habit of the compound leaves of clos ing together like the leaves of book on the approach of night or when a shower begins to fall on them, is one of the most interesting habits of plant life. AnG then, later on, for the peanut is no ephemeral wonder, endur- ing fos d day or two only, the appear ance of the tiny yellow flowers and putting forth of the peduneles on which the nuts grow imDartS to this floral rarity a striking and unique charm al is own. There is nothing else like it, and florists throughout the country might we'll add the peanut plant to their list of novel and rare things. Washington Star

Appalling Dangers.

It appears to be dawning on the minds of European statesmen that ap- palling dangers might arise from the armament and equipment of the Ori- ental peoples with modern weapons of destruction It is estimated that China could readily put in the fielc an army of from d million to five mil lions of men. If these troops were provided With modern rifles and ef- fective artillery, it can readily be seen that China would be impregnable be- cause of the overwhelming numbers it could command. It would be a singular result of the greed for wealth if Germany, in the event of war with China, sho find the latter using against it's invaders the arms and am munitions of war to semi-civilized ma lions is agitating the English parlia, ment. and not long since an attempt was made to pass a bill in that body placing limitations on the exports Of military supplies.--Leslie's.

IN ExUBERANCE OF YOUTH.
Friendly Puppy Meets Cross Cat in a
 Restaurant,

He was one of those enthusiastic young dogs who want to make friends all around. He came into a Sixth av- enue restaurant and approached every. body in his most cordial manner, prof fering his friendship promiscuously Everybody received him with tolerant indifference, except the cat She hit him. She was hateful cat. Some people are like that It is their pleas ure to be disagreeable and quell the torrent of youthful spirits. This cat was black and white, with large blotches of yellow She was not very young, says the New York Mail and Express. The dog retired quickly to the front of the restaurant. He walled softly. His feelings were hurt and he wanted sympathy. He was not used to such unkind treatment. It was be- cause he was a young dog. The cat followed him cautiously, but aggres- sively She hit him again. Then the kind gentleman who wants to prevent trouble opened the door and the pup limped out. He held up one leg and the blood dripped from it. After awhile if he doesn't get killed trying to make friends with a bulldog, he will grow to be a big, surly, cross dog frightening little kitties with his cross growl and biting disagreeable cats with his strong teeth or shaking them by the neck until they are dead.
