the artist thought Il did. His friends.
however. took a different view. They
said II was about the worst piece Of sculp-
ture they had ever seen, and that to call
such a thing q work Of art would BE- sac
ri-leEe. Moreover. they said. Z did not
look like q woman at all, and in con-ciu-
sion they advised ~Pyg-ma-li-on to go back
to the farm.
Cn-daunt-ed by all this hostile crit-i-
cism. the sculptor still insisted that his
statue was more beautiful than any
Woman that ever lived. and to em-pha-
size this statement he added that II Gal
a-te-a would come to life he would gladly
marry her. Gal-a-te-a. you understand.
was the name he had given TO the statue.
Venus. the goddess Of love. happened
to o-ver-hear this re-mark. and knowing
Pyg-ma-li-on's deep-root-ed an-tip-a-thy to
the fair sex. she resolved TO have some
fun with him. So she caused the marble
figure to come, to life and step down from
its pedestal, much to the aS~-ton-ish-ment
and dis-may Of its creator. 1t was a ser
i-ous matter to him. for while Gal-a-te-a
as a statue might have been worth . great
deal of money. as q woman she waS
merely an expensive LUXURY.
Gal-a-te-a lost no time in reminding
the artist Of his promise to marry her.
He tried to make her understand that IL
was all a joke. but she refused to see it In
that light and threatened a breach OF
promise suit. As she had plenty Of Wit
ness-es, Pyg-ma-li-on was Compelled to
submit. So they were married and lived
u~n-hap-pi-ly ever after.
One should be extremely careful about
making rash promi-is-es In the presence
of witnesses. ISAAC ANDERSON.

, this they built a booth around the statue
CT Washington at the end OF the Capitol
and established a bar with fine liquors and

their friends. They kept IL open every day

swarm Of courtesans daily smiled on their

The printing had never cost the State
more than 500 in any one year. This year
Il cost siso.1p1. When Tim pressed through
this appropriation. he waved his hand elo-
Gucrtiy toward the opposition. and said:

Lesree drew thousands of warrants On
the State for imaginary persons. There
We're eight pages In the House. He drew
pay for 1S pages. In this way he raised an
enormous corruption fund for immediate
use in bribirg the lawmakers TO carry
through his great schemes.
The railroad ring was his most effective
group Of brigands.
They passed hills authorizing the issue
Of s25.Gs.0So in bonds. and actually issued
and stole si4.ooo.e0c. and never built one
foot Of railroad.
Legree then organized a municipal and
county ring to exploit the towns. cities
ard counties Of the State. having passed n
bill varating all county and city onices.
This ring secured the control OF Ham
bright and levied a tax of "a per cent for
municipal purposes. Tom Camps little
home WAS assessed for SIS in taxes.
Mrs. Gaston's home was assessed for $3.50.
They could have raised a million as easily
al the sum Of these assessments. They had
not seen so much money since the spring
Of 1851.
1t cost the United States Government

qnired to guard Legree and his loyal men
while they were thus establishing and

ment" In the SOUTH!
