THE MILITIA.

This country does not maintain a
great standing army, but depends for
its defence upon the military forces of
the States. Ard yet there is no ad-
equate provision for maintaining, arm.
ing and equipping this reserve force.
There Is now pending in Congress bill
that X intended to put the military on
a respectable footing, and every pat
riOtIc Representative and Senator
shonld support it. OF the present law
the New York Mail and Express says:
Though the newspapers have called
attention to the fact that a good many
times, the average American citizens is
generally astonIshed when he Is told
that the national military laws now in
force in the United States provides that
the enrolled militIamen shall be armed
with "a good musket or firelock of
sufficient bore for balls of the eight
zenith PAM OF pound. two square fiints,
a pouch or box 10 contain not less than
twenty four cartridges; or with good
rife shot pouch and powder horn.
That Is to say. If the law were obeyed,
the weapons i'm use in 1892 when the
only national militia law that We have
ever had was enacted.

MORE RAILROAD RUMORS.

that 1t Is the intention of the Illinois
Central 10 extend its Tiger Tail branch,
recently opened between Dyersburg
..'.He Piger Tel, 81 eit miles an length,
TO Tiptonxifle, IN Lake county. dis.
lance of forty miles.
The object of the extension would
be to open up the large and practical
virgin timber areas in the Mississippi
lowlands between Dyersburg and Tip
tonville. TO give closer railroad con-
nectiOn TO Reelfoot lake and to furnish
a valuable feeder to the Illinois Central
at Dyersburg
lit is thought that work Will be COM
mcnced on the forty mile extension
early IN the fall and it will be pushed
right through to completion when once
began. Commercial Appeal.
The Courier predicts that the first
railroad to TiptonvilIe ylll be built
from Hickman, and this when the levee
is an assured fact Until leyee is
assured any railroad in that direction is
not probable, but when it is railroad
lines will be running over each other 10

the levee is a certainty we have reason
TO believe. railroad from Hickman
will be completed before the levee is.

THE NEXT CONGRESS- =

The Washington correspondents are
sending to their respective papers pre-
dinions concerning the political com
piexion of the next House of Repre-
sentatives. which Will consist of $50
members.
The present House consists of 357
members. The recent apportlonment
law added % members, of which the
Democrats claim twelve as certain and
grant only four or five as certain Re
publican, leaving twelve or thirteen as
doubtful. The Republican majority in
tlse present House rs Al. For the Dem,
ocratic party to control the next House
they must WIN twenty seats of the
present membership aud fourteen of
the added membership. This is not
very large gain and larger gains have
been often made heretofore by each of
the parties In the Ard Congress the
Republicans controlled the House; by a
remarkable revolution the Democrats
controlled the House in the 44th, 18th
and 10th Congress.
u majority of the Congressional
Districts of the United States are nor
mally Democratic. Even when the
Senate and Presidency are fairly Re
publican the Democrats carry ANA
jority of the districts. This is readily
accounted for by The difference in local
maioritIes. And sometimes the Dem
ocrats elect large majority of Repre-
sentatives in States which are largely
Republican,

The Streets of Fez.

The sun never touches the ground
in Fee, Morocco, except in a few iso-
lated spaces, owing to the narrow
streets, the hight of houses and the
habit of stretching trellises covered
with vines across from side to side.
The consequence is that its naturally
dark-skinned citizens, being rarely eX-
posed to the full light of day, have
compilations resembling partially de-
composed potato sprouts in dark cell
lar. The so-called streets run in
straight lines the entire length of the
town and are all paved with round
stones the size of cocoanuts, worn
smooth by the tread of generations of
slippered feet. AS these lanes are
never swept and every householder
throws his Stops and refuse out of
doors, one must pick his way with eX-
ceeding care. The Wed ell Jubai
("River of Pearls'0 divides the city
into two parts, the new and the old.
The latter, called by the Arabs Fas
el-bali, lies on the right side of the
stream; Fas ell djedid, the newer por-
ton, on the left. The River of
Pearls" is fordable in every part. the
resort of every four-footed and two
legged beast in the place; it receives
all the drainage of the city. and is the
general source of the drinking water
