Joseph Cook , has boon making a toui

is interesting to note that uinco hie

with hit meaningless discourses , is on
antidote for any thrco foreign mis
sionary societies , i
NATIONAL banks especially and citi-
Eons generally will bo interested in a
decision rendered last week by the
federal supreme court regarding the
recovery of taxes collected illegally ,
The court holds that a tax collected
under a law and upon a method since
declared invalid and void cannot be
recovered unless explicit protest was
made at the time of payment based
on the precise objection now raised.
The oo'urt based its decision upon the
gpnoral principle that the benefit of
thq doubt is always to bo allowed to a
atato authority in the exorcise of its
eovoroign right of taxation.
EVEKY now and then the supreme
tjourl of the United States gets down
lof business and gives us an opinion of
real value , Its latest effort thoroughly
disposes of the troublesome question
a * to what docs not constitute an intemperate -
temperate man. A man in taking out

application that ho was "of tompcratd
habits and had always been BO , " After
his death the company in which hu
was insured contested the payment of
t the pplicy because the man was found
t ? have had an attack of delimit ! tro-
metis before the date of hia insurance.
The court decided that the answer
k was not Buflloioat to vitiate the policy ,
holding that delirium tremens ma >
, result from a single instance of overindulgence -
indulgence in liquor and that it if
possjblo for a man who had Buffered
from that discaso to truthfully dis-
crlbe himself as always having bcoi )

IRtE CANAL' .
Both houses ot the Now York leg !
laturo having passed the proposi
amendments to the state consHtulio
by which the canals will hereafter
free from tolls , the people of t !
Empire state will bo called upon
the November elections to ratify t !
action of the legislature by n popul
rote. Every portion of the west , i
less than Now York sUxto iticlf ,
interested in an nflirmntivo vote <
the proposition. The Erie canal h
for years partaken of the clmr.tcler
n national highway , millions of to
of merchandize , valued at hundrc
of millions of dollars , has annual
passed through Ha banks and loc
from the lakes to the neabonrd. 13
fore the introduction of railroads
was the aolo outlet for the produce
the then developed west and since tl
era of railways it has proved tl
greatest check to the extortiona
demands of the monopolies. F
ciiht ( months of the year a cheap nt
constant competitor for traOic n
requiring speed in delivery. Its cleat
at the end of the season has al wa ;
been the signal for an immedinto n
vance in castbound freights by tl
trunk linos.
Decreased coat in railroad mail
tonanco , increasing competition ontl
part of rival lines , and diminislu
tariffs , have taken away from 11
Erie canal many of the advantnx
which up to a few years ago it po
sosscd over the railways as a compel
tor for freights. In 1880 its trad
was greater than over before , but la ;
year it fell away to such an cxtot
that it became evident that incastin
must bo taken either to make it frc
of tolls or to operate it at a constant !
increasing loss to the state. Tl :
proposition to remove nil tolls froi
the canal was introduced into the loj
islaturo of Now York , and at one
met the hostility of the rnonopolici
Tito lobby at once recognized that tli
removal of the canal tolls meant cot
slant low rates on the railroads , an
they fought the bill with all the :
weapons in both ansombly and sonat <
Iho anti-monopoly league did excel
ont Bprvico on the other side. Ever
member of the legislature elected o
inti-monopoly pledges cast his vet
for free canals , and the monsui
passed. It was brought out in th
lobatos on the question * that full
30,000 citizens of Now York are or
jaged in commerce on the canali
3arning annually not loss than § 25 ,
000,000 , and that the tax nocossar
to maintain free waterways woul
bo iscarcolyono-fifth of a mill a yea
in each dollar of assessed valuation.
"When the amcndmento are panned
is they doubtless will be at the comin
sleotion , the great canal will bo n
much of a national waterway as th
lakes , and with the , construction c
the Hennopin canal , the 'Misaissipf
itid the Atlantic ocean will bo joino
by a b'ond over which the monopolie
sannot exercise control. !

the "Selah claim" on tile in th
office.
Tun house committee on postofllcc
has agreed upon a bill that will offer
the people much needed facilities fc
sending small sums by mail. The ol
shinploster currency was at ono tim
a very useful medium for this purpos
but since silver has taken the place i
fractional currency great inconvot
ienco has been experienced and muc
loss cnttoiled to many branches e
business. The bill prepared by th
committee provides for the issue c
money orders for sums under five do !
lars , payable to bearer on demand
any money order office which romitte
shall select , for n fee of four conti
Thio is , perhaps , about ns small
charge as the sorvics performed wil
justify. As the order must bo en
closed in an envelope the full cost o
sending small sums this way will b
usually seven cents ; but as the envoi
opo will ordinarily enclose also a written
ton communication , the coat oi th
postage stamp will not properly b
charged to the cost of the order. Th
alteration of the postal order is rendered
derod impossible by the amount beinj
indicated by punching from the threi
rows of figures on the margin thosi
representing respectively the araoun
of dollars , dimes nud cents which tin
order calls for. The Only safcguan
against theft is Iho small amount fo :
which the notes are issued. There ii
at least no more danger of loss fron
this source than existed in the case o
fractional currency.
The committee lias further agroet
to allow ono hundred dollars to bo the
limit of a single money order , insteat
of fifty dollars. The charges proponec
are very nearly the same as at present >
ent , eight cents instead cf ton boinc
the lowest charge for sums not exceeding
coeding ton dollars , and for surai
over thirty dollars the average charg <
of ono-lmlE of ono per cent ia retained ,
With Iho repeal of the two cent tas
on bank checks it may Doom to bo ad
viaablo to make a corresponding reduction
duction in postal order charges. Th <
government could even now transact
its money order business at a profit al
n considerable smaller cost to 'the
public. Wo cannot expect everything
at once , however , and may be contenl
Eor tljo present with a reduction oi

sxplained Keeper Sam llodges
'Both were temalcs. One novel
Irow the breath of life , but the other ,
lafo and well in its loving mother' !
inns , will doubtless grow up the pride
if its parents. " When Mr. Hodges
irrived at the garden Sundas
norning ho found Minnie witl
i babe in either arm. Ono was lm ! [
uid motionless , but the other was ap-
jlying itself industriously to the task
) f extracting nourishment from the
naternal breast. Mr. Hodget
nounted the step-ladder to take awaj
ho dead babe , and Jock , the father ,
vho was in the next compartment in
'murderer's row , " became greatly ox-
sited. Ho almost succeeded in
vronching open the door , and he did
iUcceod iu grabbing Mr. Hodges bj
ho hair of the head. Ho pulled un-
nercifully , and only by vigorous oo-
ion in compelling him to release his
told did Mr. Hodges save' himsoll
rom premature baldness. When he
tad caused Jock to relax his grasp ,
Mr. Hodges reached into Mmnio'f
lomportmont and took her lifeless i ri
ant from her. She cried like a child
it the loss , while the tears coursed
lawn her cheeks. She was nearly
Listracted , and , with her live oflaprinp
n her right hand , extended at arm't
ongth , ran into the far corner of the
go. She moaned and wailed fez
i while , but finally dried her eyea
rhon she naw that she was cufe from
urthor interference , and gave her un-
lividod attention to her young one.
Ill day long yesterday iho held hei
iabo tightly in her arms , and wae
olicitqus for its welfare as any othoi
aother could bo. Mr. Hodgni said il
ran tha first time twin monkeys were
vor born in captivity. The suryiv-
iig twin is about five inches in length ,
rith a tail about an inch longer than
Uolf , an abnormally developed head ,
nd a perfect picture of its mother ,
