UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION.

UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION"
The People, published in Baton Rouge,
says: The American theory of govern
ment vests the sovereignty in the people.
This means home rule, or local se1f-goy-
eminent. The power of every official.
State Or local. is limited. There Is no
taxation, without representation, and the
principle Is recognized that whenever
taxation goes beyond the needs Of the
government economically administered,
il becomes robbery pure and simple.
To prevent occurrences of the abuses
which characterized the reconstruction.
the Constitutional Conventions Of 1879
and 1893 limited the taxing power of the
General Assembly for all State purposes
to six mills. and of tie local authorities
10 ten mills.

never dreamed that these limitations
would be oserriidcn and set aside by
stripping the people Of the right that

OYSTERS ON A CRAB

Many remarkable curiOsities appertan-
ing to the formation and growth OF oys-
ters have been taken from the bottom OF
the Chesapeake bay and tributaries. Old
bottles, clay pipes, gum boots aud many
other articles have been found with clus-
ters of oysters growing to them. but the
greatest curiosity in this connection is,
no doubt, that Of "a crab caught a few
days ago 10y boy named Thomas Leon
ard. living in Cambridge, Md. Upon the
top or back shell Of the crab seven oys-
ters about the size OF "A nickel are growing.
This is regarded AZ very remarkable, but
it clearly proves that the spat of the
oyster will cling to and grow upon al
most anything with which it comes IN
contact. Young Leonard is Keeping the
crab alive, that all who wish may see it.
OF course. il given its liberty the crab
would soon die ~ a result Of being over
burdened by the growth uf the oysters,
but the latter would thrive on until full

THE WEALTH OF WASHINGTON

4 rcccnt compilation Of the records oi
Fairfax county gives some interesting
data relative To the wealth OF George
Washing ton.
Washington inherited Mount Vernon
from his brother Lawrence in lt'2, but
did not commence To reside there until
1859. at the agc of - years. At that
time he owned in Virginia and other
States 80. 705 acres Of land. beside sew
eral thousand acres in Fairfax county.
The magnitude his farming operations
i'm 1877 can be imagined from the fact
that he had $50 acres in grass, 400 acres
in oats. 200 acres in wheat and 700 acres
in barley. buckwheat and other cereals.
He owned 40 horses, 1l2 cows, 226
oxen, 500 sheep and a large number OF
hogs. He employed 300 negro hands.
In $50 the records show that he slaugh-
tered $50 hogs for the use OF his family

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, AZ they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF theear. There
is only one way to cure deafness, and
that Il by constitutional remedies. Deal
ness is caused by an infamed condition
OF the mucus lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is infamed you
have a rumbIing sound or imperfect
hearing. and when it is entirely closed,
deafness isrthe result, and unless the In
aammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrl,
which is nothing but an inhamed condI-
ton OF the mucus surfaces.

jeff as a Referee Is Good.

New York, July 11.-Jim Jeffries is
all right, and he can go right along
making money. and easy money at
that. AS a referee he is a glittering
success. After the Hart-Root fight at
Reno there was no kicking, no cussing
the referee, and if the loser attempted
to take it out of the man who gave the
fight to the other fellow no mention
of the fact was made in the dis
patches of Naughton from the ring
side. 1t is not recorded either that
there was any questioning of the or
ders or decisions of the referee.
Referee Jeffries fills a long felt
want. He is barred from the fighting
game proper because nobody will fight
him. By officiating at fights between
aspfrants for the honor he has been
compelled to pass UP he will be doing
the public a favor. especially if he
sticks to the platform laid down of
licking the man who fakes a fight over
which he presideS.
At $1,000 per fight the figure he re-
ceived for the Reno affair, it ought to
be worth the big fellows while

Mr.. Coles Sliding.

The White Less easily outplayed the
visitors all the way through. In the
field they got one hundred per cent
making not a single bauble. At the
bat they cleaned seven safe ones Off
Speer. On three different occasions,
men died on third, when anything like
a hit would have hurried them over the
roost. Speer was wild. He is an easy
victim to noisy coaching and the White
Legs, aided and abetted by 500 fans,
typical Monday crowd, gave the kid his
fill of it. 1t wore on his nerves and
toward the latter part of the game he
was very busy quarreling with his
teammates.
Hughes never showed in better shape.
AT the beginning. he lost a little gall
because things broke badly, but the
Cheer Up cry of his confederates,
yanked him out OF his Solemncholia
and he rallied like z-year-old under
the whip.
Two double steals on the part of the
White Legs showed up strong in the
game. Cole and Quigley did the act
once, and Cole again, with LazottS, did
the stunt a second time. If the little
White Sox left fielder keeps up his
pace he will hold the record for base
stealing when the averages are made
up.
Umpire Chic had a little trouble with
the fussers, but in the main escaped
unScathed. He shut up coaching from
the bench effectively. The little fellow
is q good indicator man, and there is
little room at any time for protest. He
keeps the game on the jump as well as
any man ever sent here.
The score:
