me second sensation was sprung
when Senator Beard introduced at the
afternoon session a Statewide prohi-
bition bill. and another bill prohibiting
drinking OF intoXicants on trains.
The prohibition bill introduced by
Senator Beard does not provide for
constitutional amendment but simply
provides for Statewide prohibition.
Those who differ with Senator

NO PROTECTION FOR SNAILS
French Authorities, After Grave Con-
sideration, Decide They Are
Not Game.

The civil status of the snail has
been decided by the French council
of state. Last year the general coun-
Gil of the Yonne department passed
a resolution that the snail should be
treated as game and so should re-
ceive the benefit of close season.
Gourmets rejoiced, for the future
OF this delicacy seemed once more as
sured, but the Yonne councillors for
got the administration" without
which nothing moves in France.
Their resolution was forwarded to
the project who sent it to the minis
ter of agriculture.
The ministry pondered over it
for nearly year and examined all
the laws that touched on the ques-
ton. This inquiry has resulted in a
circular published in the Bulletin
de PAgriculture which declares that
the snail is neither game nor fish,
but only an agricultural parasite, %
and as such can be destroyed at all
times and all seasons.
The Yonne councillors are now
thinking of introducing a special law
into the chamber to protect the
snail.

To Discourage Opium Users.

A quaint touch of oriental ingenuity
to harass the persistent users OF
opium has been invented by the su
perintendent of the police at Canton
says the Lancet's correspondent in
China. This official has issued 10000
wooden licenses, ten inches long by
eight inches broad and three-fifths of
an inch thick On the front of these
boards are characters giving the
smokers name and address, and the
quantity allowed him per diem, and or
the back are the opium regulations
The licensees are not allowed to cover
their boards when going to buy opium,
but must wear them conspicuously so
that all may see them. Next year
these wooden licenses are to be two
feet long by one and half broad and
three-fifths of an inch thick.

ANOTHER USE FOR WIRELESS.

Newfoundland's sealing fleet went
forth this year fully equipped with
wireless telegraph apparatus. 1t is
expected that the wireless will not
only relieve the anxiety which is
often felt for the safety of the seal
ers, but that it will also be of i'm
mense advantage in locating the
quarry of which the fleet goes in
search. The fleet this year consists
Of 23 steamships, manned by nearly
1000 men; II of the vessels pro-
coed to the Grand Banks, while the
other six cruise in the Gulf of ST..
Lawrence. In former years the
vicinity of the Magdalen islands, 40
miles to the north of Prince Edward
island, was good sealing ground, but
of late years the seals have not been
found in that district in any great
numbers.

EVIDENTLY FEARS BOMBS.

Prince Ferdinand, who now styles
himself czar Of Bulgaria, rules over
a turbulent and not easily governed
people. Continual watchfulness has
made him extremely nervous. Some
time ago he was out driving in Carls'
bad, and appeared to be deeply bur-
led in thought. AS his carriage was
turning corner street boy picked
up paper bag that was lying in
the road, blew it up with his mouth
and exploded it with loud report
The prince started to his feet, gave
terrified glance around, sprang from
the carriage and made off rapidly in
the direction of his hotel.
