hearing his father pray for the
poor and needy, his little son said
to him:

Politicians are born of woman
They are of many days old and full
of deceit. During campaigns they
shed briny tears over the masses
and hear not the appeals of the de-
serving poor after the votes are
counted. They are at swords
points with railroads before cleo
ton and after run straightway,
fall on the neck of a railroad Off
cial and weep out a pass. Yet,
the millionaire knoweth their
goings forth for 10! they have stood
at station all the days of their
life. and no one offereth them a
pass until elected a Judge 8 con-
gresham, legislator or they be
come exo&cio, a member of the
public works. And when a fool
(?) revolteth against railroad rule,
his party kioketh him into outer
darkness.

each member of the senate, and
the house of delegates had nearly
one for each member of the house
Governor White, in his message,
declared that the number of en-
ployes at that session was a shame
full waste of the public money.
The present legislature has already
employed more people than wa
employed at the last session, and
new ones are being made by spe-
cial resolution nearly every day.
And while three-fourths of these
employees have no employment
whatever, already resolutions are
being passed to allow them extra
pay at the close of the session

An exchange says the following
in regard to Hooh, the Chicago

Not the least remarkable are
the circumstances in connection
with the arrest of Johann Hooh,
of Chicago, who is known to have
had more than 30 wives. who is
charged with having poisoned
several of the number, is that his
mail is burdened with gushing
epistles from women in ali parts of
the country. some of whom sym.

to correspond with them, while
still others express undying affec.
