Special to the World.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, Jan. 8.-The
Tennessee legislature meets this year
with every indication that the fight
for statewide prohibition will be the
chief issue of the session. Both sides
have lined up for the fray and the
struggle undoubtedly will be a bitter
one.
Though large sections Of the state

until Tennessee has joined the ranks
of Georgia, Mississippi, North Caro-.
lima and other states in prohibiting
the liquor traffic entirely.
The Pendleton law now ON the
statute books gives local option to

ants. The four-mile law is practi-
cally prohibitive in operated terri
tory. The democratic party platform
pledges the party to take no back
ward steps" in liquor organization
but to extend and apply those laws
to all portions of the state not now
embraced in their operation when
ever the people of the communities
to be affected thereby give their con-
sent.

TACOMA, Jan. Sat noon today
nine and three-fourths inches of snow
had fallen here and the local weather
forecast predicts that BY night fully
a foot will have fallen. This would
break all records for snowfall in this
city since 1899. when eleven inches
was recorded.
The minimum temperature today
was 16 degrees above zero, which is
the coolest weather experienced here
for many years. Street car transpor-
tation is considerably impeded by the
snow, motors on many cars burning
out through contact with the snow.
A large force of Iaborers is required
to keep the tracks clear of drifts.

and six below. At Malaga it was
eight and nine below. Today noon
in the city it warmed up some and
at noon registered five above. A cold
wind from the west makes the cold
unusually penetrating. The sleigh
ing Is good and many sleighs are out
today.
There is about the same snowfall
at Waterville that there is here. and
ajvices from there this morning are
to the effect that it was II below at
daylight this morning.
The train schedule is still disar-
ranged. No. 1 today is annulled and
the train from the. east will not ar
rive until tonight at 11:10. The
early morning train from the west
was about five. hours late. The east
bound due here at AIS was reported
on time at noon. The snow Is caus-
ing lots of trouble on the summit.
Four large rotary plows are at work
on the summit and the trains are
running through huge banks of snow
at each side of the track.
Stages from Chelan and Waterville
arrived here about noon today.

Turn In the Minority,

There is an article of interest to ex-
pectant parents in the Atlantic which
maintains that it is a -well-known
statistical law that, almost the world
over, there are more boys than girls
born into the world. The normal ratio
of births is about 105 males to 100 fe-
males. Students have long sought the
reasons for this irregularity; but MOTH
ing has yet been proved conclusively.
Westermarek brings together much
evidence to show that this proportion
OF the sexes at birth is affected by the
amount of in-breeding in any social
group, the crossing of different stocks
tending to increase the percentage of
female births. Thus, among the French
half-breeds and mulattos in America,
among mixed Jewish marriages, and
In South and Central America, female
births may at times even overset the
difference and actually preponderate
over male births. The interest of this
topic lies in the fact that it is unique
among social phenomena in being, so
far as we know, Independent of the
human will. 1t is the expression OF
what may truly be nominated natural
law

Inauguration EXPENSES.

The District Of Columbia is once
more agitating for an appropriation by
congress to pay the expenses of the
inauguration on the fourth of March
next. Probably many persons imagine
that the nation does pay for this
pageant, but it does not give penny.
The entire expense is assumed by the
residents of the District of Columbia,
and it is big sum for a community
that has little commerce. All the
money for the parades, etc., is fur
nished by the citizens through sub
scriptions, save what can be secured
by selling seats on grandstands and
tickets to the so-called inaugural
ball. OF course, the states which send
military organizations to participate
pay their way, but at the same time
the District committee has to do some
thing toward entertaining them. The
cost has become a burden and really
1t ought to be made a national affair,
says the Philadelphia Inquirer. The
District needs no advertising, and it
gets mighty little business out of the
affair. 1t is a national function and
congress ought to be willing to stand
for the necessary expenses.

Three groups Of men in modern life

the Boston Herald. They are the ex-

religion are fundamental fac is in con-
temporary life, as the the motives of
truth-seeking, gain-getting and altru-

A Literary Hint.

Many persons, old and young, were
surprised, two or three weeks ago,
when the death of Mrs Julia Fletcher
Carney was announced, to learn that
sac was the author of that little poem,
which seems as if it must have writ
ten itself ages ago.
Little drops of water,
Little grains of sand,
The authorship of the verses has
been ascribed to others, but examina-
ton of the evidence seems to decide
the matter in favor of Mrs. Carney
She was also the author of another
poem which has had almost as wide
a circulation and has probably exer-
cised an even greater personal inf1u-
ence-the verses beginning:
Deal gently with the erring.
1t is interesting, and to many q
young man or young woman of liter
airy tastes it may be useful to notice
how many successes of this kind there
have been. Longfellow's Psalm of
Life" judged by purely literary stan
dards, is commonplace, yet it is better
known and better liked than anything
else he ever wrote. There are Moody
and Sankey" hymns which have ap-
pealed more successfully to great au-
diences than the more erudite and pol
ished compositions which hymnolo-
gists unite to praise. The secret-al-
though it is no secret at all-is. says
the Youths Companion, the fact that
the great mass of people everywhere
are simple and homely in their tastes,
and an appeal to their hearts is an
swered far more quickly than an ap-
peal to their heads. The great Lin
coin, with his pathetic fondness for
the poem,
Oh, why should the spirit of mortal be
proud,
is an enduring type of the people
from whom he sprang, whom he al
ways loved and never outgrew.

Only people who work in connection

Only people who work in connection
with the juvenile court or come in con-
tact in some way with the class of
young people likely to appear before it
have an idea of the viciousness and
depravity possible to youth, says the
Indianapolis Star. A case in point is
reported from Denver, where a girl of
10 charged her mother with being re-
sponsible for her delinquency, and
told so narrowing a tale of the man
ner in which her mother encoura ged
her in evil courses that the judge in
sentencing the woman to 365 days in
the county Jail, expressed the wish
that he could make it 365 years. The
girls stepfather insisted at the time
that her story was false, and this is
now proved to be the case. The girl
has confessed and expressed deep re-
greet, but meanwhile her mother has
been in Jail for six months. Such ac-
tons go far to make meaningless the
term Innocence of youth

During the celebration of the cente-

Boston there was parade of 10000
men who belong to the Confraternity
of the Holy Name, or as it is some
times called, the Confraternity against
Oaths. That society grew out Of a
decree of the Council of Lyons in 1874,
intended to secure greater reverence
for the name of God Among the rules
made by Plus w. is one against pro-
family. Not only are the members for
hidden to use profane language, but
they are urged to admonish all whom
they may hear taking the name of
God in vain. There are millions of
members of the society, as there is a
branch of it in nearly every Roman
Catholic parish in the world. There
is no other anti-profanitJ' society
which approaches it in size.

A novel device of the last election
that may be held in memory for the
next is the camera-trap for repeaters,
used in Indiana. Men supposed to be
voting twice were 'snap-shotted" by
party watchers at the polls; the pic
lures were developed rapidly, and
copies were sent to the other voting
places. 1t has not been reported that
any repeaters were caught, but it is
likely that some dishonest persons
were deferred by the presence of the
camera.
