 John F. Burns of Burnsville. has been in the city for the past two or three days working among the voters. getting them to pay their poll taxes.
 A large committee of leading Democrats made it their duty to go among those who had not paid. and beg them to at once qualify themselves for the duty of citizenship. Early in the morning thou sands of circulars were scattered broad cast throughout the city. notifying those who had not paid their poll tax that this was the last day, and this had the ef- feet of calling the attention of those who had neglected the matter.
 MT. Henry F. Reese. another delegate to the Constitutional Convention. was es- pecially active in getting voters to pay up. He has urged them in season and out of season to go to the tax collec- tors office and pay the sum of $15O and thus qualify themselves to go to the primaries and the regular election and exercise the privilege of free American citizen and vote for whom they please.

/ them as long as the French gov

OF them as long as the French gov
ernment refuses to acknowledge the
validity Of the grant of the Grand
Cross of the Legion of Honor made
to him as a child by his uncle, Ma
poleon IT., prior to the latter's loss
of his throne.
There is no doubt that the prince
is entitled to the Grand Cross of the
Legion Of Honor, as it was legiti-
mately granted, and he has done
nothing to forfeit it, and has been
made the object of no decree of ex-
pulsion from the order. The refusal,
therefore, of the present French gov
ernment to permit his name to figure
on the roster of the order, or torecog-
nize him as one of its knights, is a
mistake, which it is possible that
President Loubet may see his way
to have rectifed. 49,.

CHAPEL UPON 4 BRIDGE.
Very Old Structure Used as Lighthouse
Church and Dwelling Place.

Unique is the bridge over the Ouse
at st. Ives, in Huntingdonshire,
England, in that it is surmounted by
an ancient building now inhabited as
dwelling, but probably originally
intended for chapel to the Virgin
when the structure was first erected
by the abbots Of Ramsay, to whom
the estate, known in Domesday as
Slepe, belonged.
The present bridge was built early
in 100, says the Louisville Courier
Journal, and consists of six arches,
four Of which are pointed and two
are semicircular. The chapel crowns
the center pier and is in an uncom-
monty fine state of repair, the upper
part only having been restored after
having suffered the i'll effects of fire
in 1889.
1t is additionally said to have been
also used as a lighthouse to guide per-
sons navigating tho river at this
point. d.

WONDERFUL ORCHIDS.
Apartments for Ants and Feelers for
Drawing Up Water.

The orchid family possesses many
curious habits. some provide on
their roots peculiar bulbs containing
many little apartments, so that ants
may live in them and protect the or
child from its insect enemies.
A recently discovered specie
grows low down over water, and when
thirsty draws water for itself. This
it does with long tape-like stem,
coiled like a watch spring in the CEN
ter of the plant. When the orchid
needs moisture this stem is gradual
ly uncoiled and lowered until it
reaches beneath the water. As it
begins to coil up again the tip is nat
urally filled with water, and this is
elevated by the rolling pofthe stem
until it is brought to the base OF the
plant. ..a. ...
Should the orchid be deprived of
water, the tube will search about over
the ground for it as ii guided by intel
