From all over Europe there come
reports of a possible poor harvest of
the next crops. England is so water
logged that the farmers say it will be
impossible to make the soaked soil
yield an abundant harvest. France is
suffering even more. The Seine, Loire
and Dordogne have been in chronic
state of flood for weeks; in Spain all
the rivers from the Ebro in the north
to the Guadalquivir in the south have
overfowed their banks Italy is not
better off, for landslides and washouts
have tied up several railroads, and
the swollen Pc has threatened the
exposition buildings at Turin. In
Switzerland the lakes and rivers have
swollen TO unusual heights, damaging
the quays and railroads; all central
Europe is suffering from excessive
moisture and even Russia has sent in
reports of damaging floods.

The projected Notifications by Hol-
land of the mouths of the River
Schekdt, still form the subject of ami
mated debate in the Dutch press and
also in the Belgian papers, which ex-
press a fear that the Flushing fortifi-
cations would isolate Antwerp in case
Of war. The resignation Of General
Cool, war minister for the Neither

that the Dutch government will with

The increase of membership in the
house OF representatives to 433 will re-
suit in the domination of that body by
parliamentary or political rings, in the
opinion of the census committee of the
house. A report made by Chairman
Crumpacker fayoring reapportionment
makes It clear that the committee
does not fear such an outcome.
An Immediate appropriation of So,
900 900 for Panama Canal Qualifications
to be taken out of total appropriation
of S12,475,32s for Panama defenses,
was asked OF congress Friday by the
war department. The president sent
a special message to congress recon-
mending Its approval
A message providing for a limited
parcels post on rural free delivery
routes Saturday was reported favor
ably to the senate from the committee
on postoffices and post roads. The re-
port was presented by Senator Bur-
rows and was the unanimous action of
the committee.
In spite of the effort of Senator Hale
TO prevent its consideration, the senate
Friday voted down, 43 to II, his mo-
ton TO adjourn and took up the Borah
resolution, amending the constitution
so as to provide for the election of
United States senators by direct vote
of the people After an hours debate
the senate went into executive session,
but Senator Borah declared he would
call up the resolution in the immediate
future and would press 1t.
During the consideration of num-
Der of private pension bills In the
house Friday, Representative Austin OF
Tennessee protested against the treat
ment which he said veterans of the
Spanish.American war are receiving
by the committee on invalid pensions.
Mr.. Austin said that pension of Sc a
month fixed for Spanish-American war
soldiers who we're disabled or who
contracted disease in the line of duty
was little short of insult
Although the legislatures of thirty
one states have already formally noti-
fed the United States that they favor
constitutional amendment providing
for the election of United States SEN
ators by the people, the proceedings
in the senate Friday demonstrated
that such legislation is to be resisted
even to the point of fiilbustering.
Quiet, If not perfect peace, reigned
Friday in the Texas statehouse. When
the prohibitionists in the senate called
up the concurrent resolution providing
for the counting of the vote for gov
ernor and lieutenant governor, and the
same was passed. it became as certain
as anything earthly can be that the
inaugural ceremonies would take place
Tuesday, and the wild rumors were
stllled.

INsuLTED THE KING.
The Joke a Printer Turned on Louis
Philippe and M. Theirs.


One morning during the reign of
Louis Philippe there appeared in the
Constitutional the following startling
paragraph:
"His majesty the king received M.
Theirs yesterday at the Tuileries and
charged him with the formation of a
new cabinet. The distinguished states
man hastened to reply to the king:
81 have only one regret, which is
that cannot wiring your neck like 4
turkeys"
A few lines lower down there was
another paragraph running to the fol
lowing effect:
'The efforts of justice have been
promptly crowned with success. The
murderer of the Rue du Pot-de- Fer has
been arrested in house of bad reputa-
ton. Led at once before the judge of
instruction, the wretch had the hardi-
hood to address the magistrate in terms
of coarse insult. winding up with the
following words. which amply show
that there remains not a spark of con-
science or right feeling in this hard
ened soul:
God and man are my witnesses
that | have never had any other am
bition than 10 serve your august per
son and my country Loyalty to the best
of my ability"
The printer had just cleverly managed
to interchange the two addresses. The
cream of the joke was that 1t was uni.
