The rat is making his appearance
and migrates from cellar to cellar.
A few weeks ago we heard of him in
a cellar in the eastern part of the
city, and today he has reached the
western part. The rat III Dodge

he is plurall Now look out for the
rat. He follows the advance of
civilization. The rat is not the
pioneer who turns the sod and blazes
the tree. He waits until the forest is
cleared and tho malaria has left the
soil. But has ne come to stay? The
rat knows the step of progress,
and he marches with the rain belt.
What better evidence do we need of
the change in climatic conditions than
the presence of this ratI Gnaw, look

A pretty viue-clad cottage
In the midst OF a shady grove,
Where glad birds sang in the trees all
day
The abode of peace and love.
Agrea; dog basked in the sunshine,
White lambs skipped on the green;
Sleek COWS cropped the crimson clover
Not shadow marred the scene.
Beyond, the winding river,
Like thread of molten gold,
Flashed in and out among the trees
AS toward the sea it rolled.
Asweet, and comely maiden
Stood out on the vine-clad porch,
With tender love light in her eyes,
As she watched the swift approach
or stalwart form and a noble face,
Whose eyes, so deep aud true,
Reflected the lovelght in her own,
AS to her kiss he threw.
Soon his strong arms were about her,
With her head against his breast
They stood and watched together
The sunset in the west.
Then down to the cczy supper,
they sat while the gathering gloom
or night shut in the picture
or maiden's ideal home.

One of the most interesting Incl
dents iii connection with the open :
ing of Parliament was the formal
declaration by the King of his dis
belief in the characteristic doctrines
OF the Roman Catholic faith.
Any person protesting the Popish
religion is incapable of inheriting or
possessing the crown, and the SOW
ereign is bound to make the required
declaration either on the throne in
the House of Lords in the presence
of both houses at the first meeting
of the first Parliament after the
accession or at the coronation, which
ever shall happen first. This curious
survival of o less tolerant age
acquires particular significance on
the present occasion, owing to the
fact that the Earl Marshal, who will
direct the ceremonies at Westminster,
is himself one of the most devout
Roman Catholics in England.

HENS HELP THE TRUST,

The Southern Planter notes the
fact that from all over the country
the cry is coming up from the
farmers that "the hens are not Law
ing." Is there some deep design?
cit would almost seem," saws the
Planter, Gas though the hens had
joined the Egg Trust, which we hear
is making millions on eggs bought
up during the summer and put in
cold storage. Without the hens the
profit on this business would be but
small compared with what Is now
being made. What could have in
duced the hens to join the specula-
tors this fall we don't know, except
it be that they have decided in this
way to punish their owners for their
long-continued neglect and careless
treatment. 1t is undoubtedly true
that most farmers pay but little at
tention to the wants of their hens
and often treat them with absolute
cruelty, and yet they expect them to
supply more than their fair share of
the receipts from the farm" The
remedy suggested by our agricultural
contemporary is to make it hot for
the hens by putting cayenne pepper
in their food twice week, with
grain for dessert. "From this sys-
tenn" the Planter adds, "we always
got eggs" ."-Bal,more San.

FITz KNOCKED DOWN,

Robert Fitzsimmons, the fighter,
tackled the wrong man at Ashtabula,
o., and received bloody nose as a
result, aud that, too, from man of
very small stature and with a cork
leg.
Clarence Sweet, liyeryman, fur
nished the carriage in which Robert
and Mrs. Fitzsimmous rode to the
Nickel Plate Station. Fitz protested
the charges, but after hot words paid
it. He followed Sweet out to the
carriage, where the quarrel was re-
uewed.
Sweet was climbing into his seat
when Fitzsimmons caught him by
the foot and declared his intention
to pull the liveryman off the carriage e
and slap his face. Hanging to the
carriage with one hand Sweet partly
turned and with the other landed a
stunning blow squarely on Fitz's
nose. Fitz, taken off his guard, was
knocked down.
Before he could recover from his
astonishment and before he could
arise Sweet whipped up his team and
drove off. The carriage passed over
one of Fitz's feet. About this time
his train arrived and Fitz limped
aboard nursing bruised and bloody
nose.

At night, with the illuminated foun-
tains at full play, the lakes glistening and
sparkling with their Invisible lights. the
various buildings, outlined by the 2O0,
600 incandescent lamps which are TO be
employed for this purpose, and the
electric tower overtopping all with its
dazzling effulgence. tho scene revealed
will be an electric fairyland. The most
beautiful effect OF all will be in the tran
sition from the natural to the artificial
day. When dusk has fallen, the current
will be turned on gradually, so that the
lights, beginning with a faint glow, will
increase gradually to their full brilliancy.
The process will occupy about fifty
seconds, and will involve the wasting of
large amount of current, but it will
produce beautiful natural effect never
before achieved in large applications of
electricity for illumination. Thus, in its
very newest achievement, the Pan-Ameri-

The Crusader Who Is Holding
the Attention of the People of
America.
1t is understood that a movement
is on foot to have Mrs. Carrie Nation,
the saloon-smasher of Kansas, visit
Virginia.
Prima Donna Nation has been de-
serted by Emperor Rankin, and the
wieider of the axe will make her grand
entry into wicked Chicago without
"Brother" Rankin. God told her to
go, she says, aud Rankin or no Ran
kin, she is determined to reform the
Windy City and speak in Willard
Hall. She has made her visit there
but failed to arouse any enthusiasm.
"Jointists" of Topeka have gener-
ally needed the warning to close
their places, and when Chief Stahl
and his officers visited the 35 places
they found all closed with one ex-
ception. No arrests were made.
MAY GO TO EUROPE.
Mrs. Nation, in an interview, has
announced that she will go on a
saloon-smashing crusade around the
world. She said:
81 will do no smashing in Iowa
nor any other State until all the hell
holes in my own State (Kansas) are
wiped out of existence. Then will
organize band Of women who will
smash all the saloons in the world
the United States first, Europe next"
SHE HAS GOT 'EM AGAIN.
At midnight in the Sabin House,
Des Moines, Iowa, there was a COM
motion. where Mrs. Nation was
quarterea. Suddenly leaping out of
bed and rushing to A. @. Rankins'
room che pounded violently on the
door until the manager of the aggre-
CATION of axe-throwers awoke from
his slumbers, badly frightened.
Brother Rankin" she shouted,
"what's the matter with sister
Nation? God just came to me this
blessed minute. He shouted syictorv'
and commanded me to go to Chicago,
that wicked hell of iniquity."

THE MATTER WITH KANSAS.


The Nebraska Conservative, in ex-
planation of Mrs. Nations saloon
smashing performances, points out
that the Commonwealth of Kansas
came into existence through turmoil,
strife and bloodshed, and has always,
from the date of its admission to the
Union, in 1861, been phenomenally
hysterical. Says the Conservative:
"ln 1856 New England was send
ing Yankees, Beecher rifles and
Bibles to Kansas in carload lots to
make it a free State. The same year
the slaveholding South was shipping
into Kansas bowie knives, guns and
game lot of fighting cavaliers to
make it slave State. The terri
torial or prenatal condition of the
State made an indelible birthmark
upon its emotional and intellectual
nature.
"Kansas has gone from the par
oxysmal convulsions of prohibition
on one day into the idiotic con tor
tions and gyrations of Populism the
next day. 1t has been most radi-
cally Republican one year, giving
$4,000 majority for that party, while
denouncing with intensest bigotry
and intolerance all ex-Confederate
soldiers as worthy of damnation, and
another year electing an ex-Confed-
crate colonel to represent it in the
United States Senate.
"In the early days Kansas well
coined negroes to become its citizens
and with fervor advocated the rights
of Africans as equal to those of Cau-
casians; and now Kansas burns
negroes at the stake and howls in

increasing demands of their planters
for seed-plants, they (the New Jerse,
planters) were forced 10 expend larg,
sums of money in securing necessary
plants from the Virginia waters.
This, declared Mr.. Edwards, was
IN defiance of the spirit of our exist.
ing law on the subject. Itpreserved
the New Jersey oyster at the expense
Of our natural rocks-a practice
which the measure under considera-
ton made impossible.
He added that the waters of the
James, coming from the great lime
stone region of Virginia into contact
with the salt waters, produced physi-
cal conditions which were peculiarly
suitable for the propagation of the
Virginia seed oyster. His bill sought
to protect these mollusks against the
poachers and pilferers.
Mr.. Edwards declared that the oys-
Ter laws were being violated by non
resident people from New Jersey.
"they invaded and robbed the State
in 1861, and they shall not do so now"
he exclaimed.
BOARD OF FISHERIES.
The State Board of Fisheries, re-
Gently in session in Richmond, had
before itseveral delegations urging it
to take up conflicts between the tong
ers and planters. They urged that
the Bay lor line he remarked, and that
additional territory be opened to pub
lie dredging. Another delegation
asked that some action be taken to
keep the Maryland tongers out of
Virginia waters prior to the opening
OF the season in Maryland.
1t is understood that the board
will also have to consider most i'm
portant case from Isle of Wight, and
another of equal importance from,
Middlesex.

John didn't think he had done much

50 or 4 days.
Next Officer Seymour presented Oil
yer Wheeler, of st. Charles, who had
come to town and imbibed too much

was the first time he had been locked
up but not the first time he had been
drunk. His Honor imposed the small
sum of 50 orr days, the usual penal
ty Tor being helplessly drunk.

Williams being presented to the court

He had paid a visit to the oil mill and

was fined IS or 10 days. This case
