resolution last week by vote OF 81 to 40
which provided for the appointment by

twenty-four to consider the question of

agreement. Delegates w.. III. Hall OF
Wellington, Marshal Porter of Hebron
and G. A. Bowen of Woodstock were the
members appointed from this vicinity.
The committee met Monday evening from
7.3O to IL. 30 and failed to arrive at any
agreement In regard to this representa-.
ton. The nearest to passing anything
was a vote Of IL yes and 10 no. The con
vention on Tuesday, as committee o.
the whole, passed a resolution In favor Of
a senate of so, based on principles all eady
established, by vote of 81 to SO.

The English Pheasant.

The pheasant in England, If not ex-
actly indigenous, is certainly seffectuaI-
~ naturalizcd and, though originally
from the Caucasus, may after thou
sand on SO years of acclimatizati0h be
looked upon as truly British. Tradition
has it that the pheasant was brought
into Europe by the Argonauts. ItlWas
probably introduced into England by
the Romans. 1t certainly preceded the
NOrmans. Peasant hen and peasant
cock" appeared in, King Harold's bill
of fare. Thomas Il Beckett is popularity
supposed to have dined off a pheasant
the day he was murdered.
In the time of Edward l. the price of
a pheasant was fourpence. while wood

were but farthings pair. Two hun
dred years later pheasants had risen to
Itwelvepence apiece and woodcocks to
a penny. while snipes could still be

The Webbe Shebeyli. an African riv-

Continent. Although it is a large, rapid
flowing river, almost as large as the
Missouri, and flows for hundreds of

reaches the sea. About thirty miles be-
fore it's waters get to the point where
they should mingle with those of the
Indian ocean the whole stream sinks

A corkscrew steep1e.

The steeple of the parish church at
Chesterfield. England, is often called
the ''corkscrew" steepIe. for it has got
quite a big twist. This is due to the &C
ton of the sun on the wooden and iron
materials, and the warping is more pro
nounced in the case Of Chesterfield
church than in any other church in
England. Barnstable and Bristol and
one or two other places have, leaning
steeples. but their tendency is decided
ly to lean and not to twist" The
church at Chesterfield is the nearest
rival in the United Kingdom to the
leaning tower at Pisa.
