Power of the Uaited States Senate.


The senate is today the most power
full single chamber in any legislative
body in the world, but this power,
which is shown daily by the wide at
tention to all that is said and done in
the senate Of the United States, is not
the product Of selfish and cunning usur-
pations on the part Of an ambitious
body. 1t is due to the original consti-
tuition of the senate, to the fact that
the senate represents states, to the pow
ers conferred upon it at the outset by
the makers of the constitution, to its
permanency Of organization and to the
combination of legislative, executive
and judicial functions which sets it
apart from all other legislative bodies
Without the assent of the senate no
bill can become law. no office can be
filled, no treaty ratitied.-Henry Cabot
Lodge in Scribner's.

Can Animals Blush!

It is hard to tell whether animals
blush, for their faces are covered so
thickly with fur or hair or feathers
that we do not know what may be 60
ing on beneath hide or skin. Were they
as bare faced as man is it is more than
likely we should see them blush, espe-
cially the more bashful sort and those
with some sense of shame.
1t is the case that the faces of vul-
lures flush. and several of the monkeys
become purple with rage, which may
be considered as kind Of blushing.
This may be proved any day in any
zoo, where the monkeys seem to fly into
a passion on the smallest provocation.

and will do much good How diff
terent In Sistersville? Here the
papers print all church notices free
and yet In most cases If the pub
fishers get them they must hunt up

along that line here and furnish The
papers with local notices of all
church services, revivals and other

That which Is worth doing Is Ger

that some Improvement along this

The Very First American Coins.
The very earliest coinage that can
properly be said to be strictly Ameri-
can" was ordered by the original VIZ
GINA company in the year 1872, only
five years after the founding of James
town. These coins were minted at
Somels islands, now known as the Der
mudas. For a period Of more than
quarter of a century after this, how
ever, tobacco and beaver skins were
rackoned as lawful currency. n l64o
the assembly of Virginia met and de-
clared that it chad maturely weighed
and considend how advantageous
uuoine (coin) would be to this colony,
and how much better it would be than
sole dependent upon tobacco and
pelts." After tn they provided for
the coinage Of copper coins CT the de-
nominations of twopcnce, threepence,
siXpence and ninepence, but this reso-
linton was never carried into effect
The first coinage in America proper
was the series of coins struck at Bos-
ton under the order Of the general
court of Massachusetts passed May ~

twelve pence denominations, lin forme

In this it will be seen that the votes of
Michigan, Ohio and North Dakota were

As Mr.. Parker will start in with 151
votes from the Solid South he will require
SO votes from elsewhere to elect him, and
this counting gives him something over 60
more than he would need On this basis
he could be elected without New York
On any other basis of calculation New
York is essential to him. The Times as

East" If all the gold Democrats in the
State vote for Parker. and they are Joined
to all who voted for Bryan, the State may
be considered as doubtful. That this shall
occur is the extreme hope on the part
of the Democrats. McKinley's plurality

Ross l.. CLARK, of Houston, Texas, asks
the courts for an injunction against the
Department of Agriculture to prevent the
introduction of the Guatemalan ants into
this country for the purpose of fighting the
boil weevil. Mr.. Ross points out the re-
suits which have followed the introduction
OF 'Tarious insects and animals into other
countries. where they have become greater
pests than the previous vermin. He says
that the ant is vicious cannibal, and will
embarrass the work of cotton picking. The
negroes will not wear shoes in the cotton
field. so the ants will sting their feet and
tnfuse into them a poisonous venom which
will scare the negroes away from the work,
which they are none too glad to do as it is.
Mr.. Clark's fears are laughed at If the
ant becomes too numerous and destructive
the Department can easily import some
Soracious ant-eating bird.
