Huge Animals.

No extinct land animal of former ages
had bigger body than has the biggest
African elephant of to-day, and not one,
so far as is known, exceeded or even
equaled, in total bulk the existing great
whales, which sometimes are all of 100
feet long. AS elephants, horses and
similar animals are traced backward
through the various strata they are
found to get smaller and smaller Some
extinct elephants were no bigger than
Shetland ponies, while the horses of pre-
historic times were about the size of
large dogs. In almost every group of
hairy warm-bloOded animals existing
specimens are bigger than those Of by
gone times, and the notion that there
is any tendency in animal life to dwin-
die in size is entirely without founda-
tion. There are, of course, exceptions.
for the extinct sloths, kangaroos, lizards
and some others exceeded in bulk ex-
listing creatures of the same order.

position by Mr.. Spooner and Mr.. PIatt
(Ct). Mr.. Spooner moved to recon-
nit the measure, but the vote on this
motion failed to develop a quorum so
the senate was forced to adjourn until
Monday.
HOuse-Speaker Cannon took the
bit in his teeth and ran completely
away with legislative precedent in the
house. Incidentally he broke all pre-
vious records in the dispatch of pri
Vate pension bills. Under his guidance
S2O Of these measures of relief were
passed by the house in 155 minutes.
Nearly the whole of this time was con
sumed in committee of the whole. The
house passed the bills zen bloc" under
unanimous consent, which the speaker
had asked for. About half of the bills
were disposed Of under this request
without amendment. When objection
was temporarily made the speaker
plainly showed his displeasure by
dragging the proceedings. The objec-
tiOn was withdrawn, whereupon the
remaining bills were declared passed
without even the formality of having
the clerk read their numbers. Ad-
journed until Monday
Washington, Feb. 16.-Senate-T
suspense concerning the condition of
Senator Hanna had an appreciable ef-
feet on the senate Monday, and as a
result the proceedings were marked
by an unusual listleesness and depres-
sion. There were no speeches on any
subject whatever, and more attention
was given to the frequent bulletins an
nOuncing the condition of the senator
than to matters of legislation. The
entire time of the legislative session
was devoted to routine business, the
most important matter taken up being
the bill providing for a gratuity to for.
mer Queen LiliOukalani, of Hawaii
which was lost on tie vote. Several
bills were passed.

SNOWY CANDLEMAS.
Popular SuperstitiOns COncernina: .: the
Day in This and Other
Countries.

Forty days after Christmas comes
Candlemas, when, according to popu-
lar superstition, the wolf, the badger
and the bear ask no odds of the wealth
er bureau, but come out of their holes
to do little prognosticating on their
own account, says the New York Her.
aid
In Germany there are two proverbiaI
expressions to convey the common
idea, ''The shepherd would rather
see the wolf enter his stable an Candle
mas Day than the sun" and 1.-The
badger peeps out of his hole on Candle
mas Day, and when he finds snow he
walks abroad; but if he sees the sun
shining he draws back into his hole" :"
In this country the small boy, an apt
student of local folk lore and tradition,
adjusts his latest shoe string watch
fob and remarks, oracularly: 'EWeII, eff
the wOOdchuck kin see his shadder to-
day when he comes Out'n his hole an
looks arOun' that means a long winter
yet. Pa says So"
Nor is this belief that good weather
on Candlemas Day is the index of a
continuance of winter and of bad crops
to follow, or that a stormy day is
the harbinger of early spring, matter
of locality.
The same idea is expressed in a
Latin distich given by Sir Thomas
Brown in his Vulgar Errors
81 Sol spIendescat Maria purificante,
Major crit glacies past fistune guam fuit
ante,
while the Scotch embody their conclu-
sions in the following rhyme:
If Candlemas Day be dry and fair,
The half O. winters to come and mair,
If CandIemas Day be- wet and foul,
The half O. winters gone at Yule.
Quite similar is the middle vests
rhymed version of the popular belief:
As far as the sun shines out on CandIemas
So will the snow blow in before May;
AS far as the snow blows on Candlemas
Day,
SO will the sun shine out before May.
The name Candlemas is supposed to
be derived from the blessing of the
candles by the Romish clergy and their
distribution among the congregation,
who afterward carry them in process
sion
In England during Catholic times a
special meaning was attached to the
size of the candles and the manner in
which they burned during the process
sion. If any fragment was left over it
was believed to be possessed of strong
supernatural virtues.
Scotland is especially rich in curious
customs relative to Candlemas, which
is also one of the four term days ap-
pointed for periodical annual payments
of money, interest and taxes.
