 Preserved In philadelphia. Philadelphia contains one relic of the laws O. William PCun which is un- known tomost inhabitants of ihe Quak- CT City It is . small portion of ground which siill retains by virtue of a pro- vision m the charter les original chorac- ter. Right in the heart of the business section of the city it lies, the only place for miles 0round that bears no foot ,rin,s of the march of progress md com merce. tho only building lot in the city which has uever been near the hands of real estate agent
 You have but to go down Walnut q. ct q, Seco-d. turn up Second until you come tn little iron gate on the Ias, s.dc 1ttle street. swing 1t back and ,n,sr aud you stand within tho Indian reservation
 Ia tho days when Philadelphia used Go be the metropolis of the red men, and they came by various trails across the country and down the Delaware to hold council tnere. itgrew necessary for them to Lave solne appointed spot for their conclayes. William Penn dedicated this reservation to them as n trysting place and provided that it should be sacred to their use forever.
 It is foreign enough place now. shet in as 1t is by high buildings on nearly every side. The old Union Tele- graph office confronts it on one side, a wholesale liquor dealers store backs up against it on another. and high board fence chokes off the last hopo of any outlook from the place.
 There is no mark to tell of its original use or to stamp 1t as ono of tho curiosi. ties of the day. Ones only solace for his grievance is to imagine that the stealthy tread of moccasined feet Is still echoing there and that the strange words of the redskins tongue have left some spell upon the place.
 In size it is pvor comment upon Penn's generosity. for it scarcely affords room sufficient 70 turn wagon and a pair of horses. Perhaps because of it's microscopic dimensions there has never been any attempt to encroach upon tho rights of the old reservation.
 For more than n century 1t has stood in its native state m the midst of the great city, a relic of a pathetic past. an heirloom for owners who will mover reclaim it.-New York Herald.

THAT EXTRA SESSION.

There will be much doing around the
state house on or about and after The
4th of February. On that day the extra
session called by Gov Van SAINT will
convene and the chief executive of the
state will have a Legislature on his hands
to use the manner of expression adopt
ed by former president.
Extra sessions are, as rule, things not
ito conjuro with, for they are often load
ed. While, in a general way. DIT is ex-
pected that the business of the extra
session will be largely taken up with
the report Of the tax commission and
the bill proposed by it as a sovereign
remedy for all the tax ills that now af-
f1ict the body polite, yet there may 9th
er matters come up that no man wots
of at this time not even the governor.
1t can never be told until afterward just
what a legislature will do, as is the case
with a jury of twelve good men ana
true
Well, the gentlemen composing the men,
bership in the legislature, and the other
people who will come to the city willing
to serve the state in the various capaci-
ties and for the per diems provided by
law, will be given hearty welcome 70
the city. AS they say further west
it is outside money that keeps up the
camp.
An extra session is often loaded al
both ends; it may shoot forward and
again it may shoot backward. Therefore
let the governor, who is behind the ex-
ira session, keep close to a sheltering
stump, for there is no telling when ht
may have to jump for his political life.
| Meanwhile, without reference to the
political future of the governor, it would
be well for all the people of the state
to be studying the report of the ta1
commission, and the accompanying bill
for both relate to the vital affairs O
Minnesota.
