It is 6aid Billy Bryan is going to

It would seem that Mr. Bryan should

President McKinley has ap
pointed We Sinclair steward of the

enjoyed that position under the last

this he is a democrat, but when
McKinley reflected on how fat he

to extend the civil service rules to
him and keep.him in office. Fremont

President McKinley has already-
shown a degree of statesmonship and
political lairness that the Major por
tion' of his party will applaud. Men
who held office under Harrison are
given to understand that "there are
others" and they must take a back
seat. It requires quite a fine exhibit
of gall anyway for a man to hold office
four years under Harrison and ther.

"The reason Bartley is60lowin turn

to be owing to the fact that Gov.

General Thayer is out gunning

seems to benoJ,easier method of get

he usurps with all the airs and self-conceit

The plan of a crowd of so-called re
publicans at Lincoln to interfere with
the count of the amendment ballots is
a piece of small business that the party
itself should not be charged with. II
the amendments carried, the public is
entitled to know it, and if the two pop
ulist judges are elected by only a ma
jority of one vote we hope to see them
seated on the supreme bench. We
are glad Governor Hoi comb has inter
posed and that the courts can not
block the way of a fair count. There
are two honest republicans on the can
vassing board, and we have no fears
of any'stufTing the hat." There

ftir play, and the rank and file con
demn severely any subterfuge that
miy be resorted to looking to the pre

TirBferTlngf Pictures.
Prints or lithographs may be trans
ferred to glass by a very simple process.
The glass U cleaned with alcohol and a
polisher, then coated with fine dammai
varnish, laid on very evenly. It is then
put away in a place where theie is no
dnst, where it is to remain until it is so
sticky that whe-n touched with tho finger i
the glass, if a small plate, may be lilted ,
bv the adhesion. The picture to be trans
ferred must be soaked in rainwater until
it is completely saturated, then placed
between sheets of blotting paper and
gently pressed. This removes all su
perfluous water. Now put the pictures,
face down, upon the sticky side of the
glass. The utmost care is necessary in
placing it, as one-e it touches it cannot
be moved without danger of tearing ont
pieces of the print. When it is adjusted,
begin at one corner and press the picture
closely upon the adhesive surface, watch
ing it continually to see that no air bub
bles appear between the picture and the
varnished surface. When this is finished,
put the picture away again, let it re
main until quite dry, then lay a wet
towel over the back cf the picture until
tho paper is thoroughly soaked.
Now begin at one corner, and, with
the fingers, frequently dipped in water
so that they will remain wet, rub off
the white paper. Continue this until all
the white portion is removed. This will
leave only the color of the picture upon
the glass. At the finish give the back a
rather heavy coat of transparent var
nish. Let it dry thoroughly and add a
very thin second coat. When this is per
fectly dry, frame the picture with a very
thin glass over the varnished side. Hang
in the window as a transparency. A
few attempts may be, necessary before
expert handling is acquired, but perse
verance will bring success, and with
care and a little ingenuity very many
beautiful pictures may be prepared at
the most trifling expense. New York
Ledger.
Early English Bindings.
During the reign of Elizabeth the
fashion in binding underwent a consid
erable change, the graceful simplicity
of the early work, with its rather severe
and restrained ornament, giving place
to a heavy, overdecorated style, in which
a superabundance of gilding hid pover
ty of design. This style reached its
height in the bindings produced for
James I, which were commonly dotted
all over with flowers-de-luce or thistles,
while the corners were filled with a
heavy bloek of coarse design. During
the reign of Charles the bindings were
as a rule copied from French work and
the designs carried out with very small
tools; but, though foreign influence was
strongly felt at first, the English bind
ers 6oon struck out a line of their own,
and Samuel Mearne, the binder to
Charles II, produced some admirable
work and seems to have introduced the
quaintly shaieil panel which gave the
name of cottage binding to a certain
class of work. At a little later date an
Edinburgh binder whose name is un
known, but whose work is easily distin
guishable, executed some marvelous
pieces of work on very dark greeu mo

A Parliament Ciintoiu.
Before the rpecch from the throne is
read, when the houses are resumed in
the afternoon, by the lord chancellor in
the house rjf lords and the speaker in the
house of commons, it is the practice in
both houses to read one bill a first time
pro forma in order to assert their right
of deliberation without reference to the
immediate cause of summons. This
practice is enjoined in the house of lorels
by a standing order. In the house of
commons the same form is observed
pursuant to ancie-nt custom and of the
following resolution, passed March 22,
1603: "That the first day of every sit
ting in every parliament some one bill
and no more, receiveth a first reading
for form sake. " In the house of com
mons the clerk of parliaments produces
an ancient document which lias served
this purpose for at least a century, en
titled "A bill for effectually prevent
ing clandestine outlawries," which is
duly read a first time and ordered to be
read a second time and will never be
heard of again till the opening of the
next session. Loudon News.
Marvelous Mechanism of the Human Body.
The human body is an epitome in na
ture of all mechanics, all hydraulics, all
architecture, all machinery of every
kind. There are more than 310 mechan
ical movements known to mechanics to
day, and all of these are but modifica
tions of those found in the human body.
Here are found all the bars, levers,
joints, pulleys, pumps, pipes, wheels
and axles, ball and socket movements,
beams, girders, trusses, buffers, arches,
columns, cables and supports known to
science. At e very point man's best me
chanical work can Le shown to be but
adaptations cf processes of the human
body, a revelation cf first principles
used in nature. William George Jordan

The Pandects of Justinian.
The pandects of Jnstiniau, the most

found a copy which he sold to an officer
for a few pence. The value of the discov
ery was soon apparent and the precious
volume was taken to Pisa and stored in
the city library. Whe n Pisa was stormed
by the Florentines, in 1415, the precious
volume was captured and taken to Flor

A Hindoo Made of Bobber. - !
A Hindoo named Bava Luchman Dass
is attracting the interested attention of j
the London medical profession. Mr.
Dass is a Yogi, and if all Yogis are like
Mr. Dass the ordinary treatises on an
atomy must be subjected to revision. He
was exhibited to the Students' Anatom-
ical society of bt. Ueorge s Hospital and
introduced by the lecturer as "an nnu-1
sually complicated specimen of the In
dian Yogi a Brahman, namely, of a
very high caste who goes through cer
tain religious exercises with a view of
qualifying himself better for paradise."
These religious exercises seem to take a
physical form, and Mr. Dass, a little,
dark gentleman, sat upon the table and
proceeeled to exhibit a selection from the
84 abnormal positions which he has put
in 40 solid years in learning.
He seemeel to have ligaments of the
gutta percha persuasion, while his
joints evidently work on all bearings.
He formeel his legs into a cravat and
tied them about his neck. He hopped
about on one hand and strolled about
jauntily on his knees, a position which
is said to greatly assist thought, though
the thoughts of a white man in such a
position would hardly be fit for publica
tion. He foldeel his legs tightly around
his boely and stood thoughtfully on his
finger tips for several minutes, in which
posture he eleclared he was able to re
main for seven days. However, as the
meelical students elid not wish to carry
out this particular experiment to its bit
ter end, Mr. Dass proceedeel to tie him
self up in a knot and to go to sleep on
one leg like a flamingo. Then sitting
down suddenly he brought the soles of
his feet together, his knees being at such
an acute angle that nothing short of
complete dislocation could have made
the performance possible. The lecturer
endeavored to follow his movements on
an extremely suggestive looking skeleton
which he had by his side and finally
came to the e-ou elusion that Mr. Dass
had no ligaments at all. London

Treacherous Cape Cod.
Nobody knows how many vessels have
been wrecked on Cape Cod since the
bleak December day when the Mayflower
rounded Race point and sought shelter
in what is now the harbor of Province
town. The number is very great, how
ever, and the loss of life on this most
dangerous part of the whole New Eng
land coast has been something appalling.
A list, admitted to be incomplete, of
the wrecks since 1S73 shows that 151
vessels, including three steamers, have
gone to pieces on the pitiless sands of
the cape, and, had not the waves always
hastened to remove the evidences of
their work, the shore all the way from
Chatham, at the elbow of Massachu
setts' elbow, to the crock of her bent
hand woultl be piled high with the ribs
and planking of shattered vessels. A
large proportion of the cape s victims
are coasting schooners, with only an oc
casional bark or brig. These disasters,
therefore, rarely attract much attention,
but they arc tragical none the less, and
almost every storm aelds to the number
of dreadful stories which the lighthouse
keepers and members of the life saving
service have to tell. New "iork Times.
Kuglinh as a- Cursing Medium.
A ple asing testimonial to the resources
of the English language was given at
Mauche-stcr. An inquiry was being held
as to a house reputed to be used for gam
bling. It was frequented by poor Jews,
and they were stated in a general way
to have spoken their own Yiddish ex
cept when they wished to swear. Then
they used English. Our oaths appear to
be simpler and stronger than those of
any other tongue. The Spaniards',
though it must bo admitted they are
coarser, are too elaborate. They 6wear,
not in words, but in sentences. The
same may be said of Italian execrations.
French oaths are a failure. They beat us
in slang, but in simple objurgation they
are nowhere. German imprecations
mean a gooel eleal, but that is just where
they fail. The essence of a goexl round
oath is mystery. And that is why Amer
ican swearing, though sonorous, misses
its mark. There is too much thought in
it St. James Gazette.
Hairpin Motor.
A fuse burned out in one of the Weth

to a standstill. After a moment the mo
torinan opened the front door, and, put
ting in his head, inquired, "Can any
lady lend me a hairpin?" His singular
request was at once complied with, and
in a ehort time the car was again under
way. "What did you want that hairpin
for?" askeel the woman who had sup
plied it of the conductor when that of
ficial came to collect her fare. "Tj
make a fuse out of," was the reply,
"and I guess you are entitled to ride
free this trip. ' And she did, while the
other passengers applauded heartily.

Whose Was It? " "
A scholar traveling in the east Bars
that he was once in camp with his j
xxxuu uiuuna, a niixu oj. iwuuixii tun cub, j
in a wretched Phrygian village far from ;
the track of travelers. As they were j
striking tents in the morning a heavy
faced boy brought Mr. Ramsay a hand-!
ful of bronze for sa:c. He sorted it rap
idly on the palm - ' his hand and fonnd
among the rubbish j.-- very rare coin of
Hierapolis. Then he put it all back
again in the boy's ou'. stretched palm and
offered half a dollar for the lot. The boy
accepted the bid, gave back the handful,
took his money and disappeared while
the exultant purchaser went chuckling
off among the horses.
Ten minutes later the boy appeared
again, and, going up to the other Eng- ,
lishman, offered another handful of rub
bish among which was the same rare
Hierapolitan coin. The gentleman kept
the bronze in his hand and offered a
half dollar for it, which the boy refused,
though the bargain was eventually con
cluded for a dollar.
Then the gentleman, in high glee,
hailed his companieai and, showing his
purchase, informed him that he was not
the only man who possessed a coin of
Hierapolis.
"Let us compare," said other,
emptying the pocket where . ronze
was jingling.
He sorted the lot and felt in every
pocket. No coin of Hierapolis was there.
To this day three questions remain un
answered: How did the bey retain the cein in
the first instance in ortler to sell it over
again?
How, in that remote rrgicn, far fror.i
the haunts ef travelers, did he know the
value of his find?
And to which purchaser elid the coil:

His Sweet Voice.
The best of men are at times liable to
inake very serious mistakes. A man in
a Leicestershire village woke in the
night and heard what he supposed to be
the harsh grating of a saw on a hard
board and at once jumped to the con
clusion that some bold, bud burglar was
sawing a hole in the front eloor.
He slipped ont of bed, glided like a
specter into the hall and again listened
and this time became fully satsfied that
hs first suspicions were correct.
Seizing his fusty guu, he ponied a
handful of powder and ditto cf shct i:?to
each barrel, capped it and, softly rais;iig
an up stairs window, blazed away in
the darkness, the shot being followed by
a howl of pain from below.
He then hurriedly drew on a few of
his most necessary garments and went
to investigate the matter, and upon the
first step found the wounded form of a
neighboring youth, who, in feeble tones,
explained that he had come over to sere
nade his sweetheart, the old man's only
daughter, with a song and that when be
was shot he was diiving ahead as best
he could on "Swee t Spirit, Hear My
Prayer."
He expressed ro Fnrpri.je at the old
man's mistake, but tliini-s that ho might
have at lea.-t yelled "Who's there?" be
fore he pulled the' tiigger, but the shoot
er said ho was somewhat excited and
just a little scared, so didn't step to
think. Pearson's Weekly.
The Gillie's Excuse.
It is well known that the quern has a
dislike to the smell of tobacco, and even
such a constant smoker as the Prince of
Wales is careful to deexlorize himself a1?
much as possible before being received
by his royal mother. Perhaps the late
John Brown took her majesty's aversion
more cewlly than any one else, fer his
6porran was always crammed with a
mixture peculiarly black and strong.
On one occasion the late Duke of
Sutherland sent semie liveeleer to Wind
sor uuder the charge of his head keeper,
who, having seen his charges safely
housed, foregathered with Brown, and
smoke and whisky speedily combined in
no small quantities. While the carouse
was progressing John was hastily sum
moned to the queen's presence1, anel
away he went without changing his
clot he's. His sovereign lady seKjn detect
ed the peccant odor and repreiached
Brown with it.
"Hech! Your majesty," said Brown,
"it's nae my fault. It's jexist 'contact'
with the duke's keeper." He was for

Oneer Language.
The Saturday Review says that when
he was in Egypt Mark Twain hired two
Arab guides to take him to the pyra
mids. He was familiar enough with
Arabic, he thought, to understand and
be understood with perfect ease. To his
consternation ho found that be could
not comprehend a word that either of
the guides uttered. At the pyramids he
met a friend, to whom hes made known
his dilemma. It was very mysterious,
Twain thought. "Why, the explanation
is simple enough," said the friend.
"Please enlighten me, then," said
Twain. "Wliy, you should have hired
younger men. These olel fellows have
lost their teeth, and, of course, they
don't speak Arabic. They speak gum
