The Legislature meets to day.
Many predict that it is to be a
truly radical body, otherssay that
it will be conservative. The next
sixty days wil verify one of these
predictions. Thetone cf thefirst
issue of tne Da?! Cansasian would
indicate that it is to be any thing
but a conservative body. It does
not believe in going slow. We
shail see what we shall see.
In the absence of Vice"Presi-
dent Stevenson and Senator Har-.
ris, who was speaker pro tem
of the Senate, Senator Ransom
has been elected Speaker pro tem
of the United States Senate.
This is an hosor worthily be"
stowed. Senator Ransom has been
in public service for a long time,
and richly deserves any honor
that can be conferred upon him.
Last year John Eckman. of
Lawrence County, Pa., killed a
couple of skunks and sold their
hides for $2 each: He concluded
that at that rate it wonld be a
profitable business, says an ex-
change, to raise the animals for
their hides- He built an enclos-
ure of some two acres, arranging
it so that the animals could not
burrow under the walls, and tiap-
ped some thirty skunks to stock
it. He now has 330, and expects
next year to haye 3,000. The
skunk breeds twice in the year
and produces seven to nine at aT
litter, so the rate of increase: is
kept down by a habit the animals
have of killing the first litter
when the second one is born. Mr.
Eckman feeds the animals with
offal from the slaughter house,
refuse meat and milk. He says
that his pets are very tame and
inoffensive, and never emit their
characteristic. odor save when
fightine. He thinks that his
skonk farm will soon make him
independently rich.

is the man who recently refused a
$50,000 presidency -of a railroad
because he didnTt have time to
spare from his business. The

Oat of 731 blind children, who
are said by the census reports to
be in this State, the authoriiies
were able to get the names cf
Ouly 125. and of these only 49
could be induced to enter the in-
stitution at Raleigh. Tbe igao
rance cf their parents and gvuar-
dians is the cause of their not
availing themselves of the great
opportunity.
This thing of a man taking
oath when he wishes to sign an
~official bond that he is worth so
and so aboye his liabilities snd
exemptions by law, when bis
oath he hus taken before the
tax hster shows to the, contrary,
somewhat dangerous proceding.

Ons Haws a Capi Guide Low Poe to get the very best.
A stranger from Texas - sauntered |. | and freshest
into: the capitol a fell into, the].
hands of a guide who offered to
show him the. sights, of the building,
says the Washington Post. ~
~Good enough,�. quoth the Texan.
~o~Before.we begin, olet's takeadrink.�.
Being of an accommodating na-
ture, the guide consented, and the
two quaffed a couple of quaffs right
gayly. The guideTs eyes bulged
when the Texan drew from. his pock-
et B big: fistful of bills: in paying
for the. liquor, and he seénted a
handsome fee. He led the Texan all
over the building from the erypt to
the dome, and into both houses. . He
pointed out all the celebrities, and
then, by. way of a wind up, took his
victim to statuary hall and placed
him on one of the whispering stones.
oStay there,� the guide said,
otill you hear me speak.� "
Then the guide disappeared in the
crowd to the other stone. A lady
was standing on it, and the guide
waited a moment for her to leave.
The Texan, who was getting uneasy,
looked round, and) 1tiotT seeing ~the}
guide, set to thinking. Just then he
saw a young girl look at him and
smile, and later two boys did the
samy, fr drres ge
petently: le aa ae
liceman:
~T may be from Tésas, and some

I'm a-leetle too wise to be caught |

And then he and the guide's fat
fee vanished together.
