The cork-screw appears to be tbe lever of popular sentiment in Michigan by a small majority. _ _ The Illinois Central railroad com pany has not called in its passes. It seems they fail to understand the force of an inter-state law on local passes. TnERE are lota of people waiting to make up an opinion upon the inter-state commerce bill as soon as soms fellow comes along and tells them just what it means. A bus that beats similia similibus : In the old times kissing a pretty girl was regarded as a cure for the tooth ache. The Norristown Herald sighs , "It is difficult to improve on some of those old prescriptions. " A sensational head-liner in a con temporary writes : "The people set down on them in thunder tones. " It makes a fellow flat to have ' ( the people set down on" him , but to do so "in thunder tones" is a heavy set. Buffalo Bill is astonishing our English uncles and cousins. The Lon don Daily News tells its readers that "Buffalo Bill is not a wild Indian , as many of them have supposed , but the Hon. W. F. Cody , a member of the United States Parliament. " If you want knowledge , you must toil for it ; if food , you must toil for it ; and if pleasure , you must toil for it. Toil is the law. Pleasure comes through toil , and not by self indulgence and in dolence. When one gets to love work , his life is a happy one. Ruskin. Recent demonstrations have fully proved that water is not purified by freezing , and that ice may contain the most poisonous of organic matter. That multitudes of bacteria have been found in the'ice gathered from the Hudson River has thoroughly aroused the atten tion of medical men and scientists in the East to a consideration of the dan gers resulting from its use. Jay Gould has had his grip on St. Louis for the last three years , and he probably never will release it. His latest turn of thumbscrews is the raising of the tolls across the Mississippi bridge from 25 to 35 cents on passengers , and a corresponding rate on vehicles. To say that St. Louis is mad , does not fully express it. She is helpless until congress regulates the bridge tolls. A Texas newspaper man proposes "to bust the Texas Legislature wide open. " He has begun suits for dam ages against the Sergeant-at-arms of the House of Representatives and fifty- eight members of the House who voted to imprison him for causing the arrest of the Speaker during the session. His claims are represented to be $25 for actual damages , $10,000 for damages in character and reputation , and $100 , - 000 for punitory damages. The Maine House of Representa tives has concurred in the Senate amendments to the House liquor bill , and it has been sent to Governor Bod- well for his signature. It will go into effect in its main feature on May 1st. The bill makes the penalty on first con viction thirty day's imprisonment and imposes a fine to be named by the Court ; prohibits the sale of cider for tippling purposes , and allows druggists 'to keep all kinds of intoxicating liquors for the sole purpose of compounding medicines. It also makes the payment of a United States tax prima facie evi dence of the illegal sale of liquors , be cause a druggist is not required to pay that tax for using liquors in compound ing medicines , and imposes a penalty j on railroad employes for unloading li quors outside of regular stations. The ; fee system also receives a blow in the i change of the Liquor Commissioner 's ] rewards , which were provided for in ' the shape of a regular salary instead of by a percentage on the regulay sales , : as heretofore. There is , apparently , I no reason why another drink of liquor j ' should be bought or sold in Maine , ex cept the one that human nature is hu- ] man nature , but this prohibition dpes. not consider. xtF * ' ' 1C.
