 The National museum reports that there is great progress in taxidermy. This will be good news to Mir. Bryan if he is as dead as gold democrats would like to believe him.
 MT. Richard Croker is believed to be going out of politics. No doubts exists that many of his friends are going to be out of job.
 Dom Paul views arbitration from the point of view of the walking dele gate. He is heartily in favor of ar bitration provided he has the assur- ance that the decision will go his way.
 Mayor Van Wyck is going abroad for a years rest. It will necessarily contribute to his repose of mind to have the assurance of the late cleo ton that his fellow citizens can spare him.
 Prof. c. w. Wynn of Denver, who recently discovered what is alleged to be very cheap process for the ex- traction of gold, died few days ago after surgical operation. His secret is said to be in the possession of two partners.
 Croker's philosophic acceptance of the triumph of good government sug- gests the position of the Texans dog. q never saw dog love a man SC" it was said to the Texan. Dealing vicious kick at the beast, the Texan replied, "B'gosh, he has no choice"

 New York commiserates Minister Wu for having to return to China where such unenlightened practices as rescuing the sun from the dragon are still in vogue. But American mu- nicipal politics have doubtless accus- toned Minister Wu to a great deal that is unenlightened.
 Representative Perre of Maryland has proposed plan of dealing with the tariff and trusts somewhat similar to the plan proposed last year by Representative Babcock, which caused much discussion. Mir. Perre's bill authorizes and directs the suspension of tariff duties upon imports when their sale or manufacture is monopo- lized. Provision also is made for a commission to report to the president on the subject.
 A mining exchange notes the fact that it has been held by a Dakota court that one co-owner cannot jump property and deprive his partners of their interests, the decision being con firmed by the supreme court of that state. This ends the Holy Moses litigation which has become famous in the Black Hills. The same point was decided in the district court in Prescott some four or five years ago and sustained by the supreme court of this territory.
 Delegate Mark Smith has intro duced an enabling act for the admis- sion of Arizona. Now just hold your breath and see it go through congress. Mark, however, shows an unpardona- ble lack of confidence in his ability to pass it by the introduction of bill to establish superior courts in Arizona. With statehood, which should be secured by the 4th of July, 1902, if | congress passes this bill promptly as it should, Arizona will be able to provide for all kinds of courts with out any congressional legislation.
