\VI IM:DAY. NOYBMKKU AS. 1894.,

TMK Snnromo Court of Indiana ha** decided that a woman cannot be gramed a license to sell liquor. This will ho now "rounds upon which Helen M. iJougar can give a vigorous kick.

UKITULU AN party pledges made in the State platform, and upon which every Legislative candidate was elected. must be carried out to the letter, even though it snaps the double-tree of some aspiring statemen.

hkkk are 21.S Democrats in the present- House, and of them hut 7»v were re-ele^ed. In view of the recent bond isue ami the probability of another in the near future if the election were to come otT to-day there would be a still further reduction of Demo* era tic present a lives.

ok his opportunites Harvey D. Voories. the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, has been about as thrifty an ofliee holder as Jreen Smith. He lias gobbled nearly everything in sight. The brass on the State Mouse dome is still there but the people have no assurance that it will be in position by the time all the Democratic. State ofticers retire.

I has been suggested that tlie*law whieh continues the present township trustees in otlice till August. IS'.*.", be repealed and make the terms of the tru-tees-eiect begin April 1. IS'J.V It would be better that they begin in May instead of April. My that time the spring schools will have closed and the retiring trustees would .-be enabled to make full reports.

•'I nk Democratic taritY bill is working likea charm.—Vnmhfnrt Cicsent. ne hundred millions added to the public debt and the prospect of another tifty millions in the near future, are indeed charming. The people are perfectly delighted. The recent avalunehc of votes shows that the voters are unspeakably happy over the: emocratic tariff bill.

Tin: Cnilod States Trust Company, of which .John A Stewart is President, has secured the entire loan of J50.G(.»0,ooo from Secretary Carlisle, at 117.0T7 and accrued interest from Nov. 1. The '/•estimated profits of this syndicate operation are a minimum of SI /too,000 and they may reach ?'J.OOC.OOO. Wash-, ington dispatches say it is a serious question already whether or not it wiH not be necessary to make another bond sale of ?'o,oo).oi)0 just after Congress adjourns. Wall street is looking forward hopefully to il. A ^government is just like an individual. So long as the expenditures exceed the receipts, money must be borrowed.' Asfinanciers the Democratic party tUlce^itho eake.

TMK fee. a ud-salary- law- so far as relates to Auditors. Treasurers and Recorders, has been declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. The basis of this decision is the fact that the Legislature of ISO! ... bunginglv omitted these. ofticers- from Shelby county. The Legislature of ls0:s amended the law so as to include the Shelby county otlicers. but the court held that the law of H01 being invalid it could not be amended. As the Clerk and Sheriff were included in Shelby county the decision docs not apply to these otliccrs and the inference is that so far as they are concerned the law is constitutional. 'The decision leaves the. law in a skeletoni/.ed condition, and the next Legislature will be compelled to enact a new law. The tax-payers of the State d: not desire to be niggardly toward their public servants They are willing that they shall receive a liberal compensation for their services. The present law is not equitable in its practical workings and does an injustice to many ollieers. The Legislature should see to it that all these, defects are remedied.

Tin: i\ im:ak ofthi niMn*. I a trol of the Government the Democratic

party added S5u.ouu.ooo to the public debt and S:.',500.000 to the people's .vyt»arly burdens, and in its second year -it has already added like sums, with the possibility that the operation may yet have to be repeated. The change has already added J? 100,000.000 to the :deot. which the people have proudly made sacrifices for many years to revduce. and §.",000,000 to the annual in 1terest charge. Commenting on this suite of affairs which brought about thr necessity the New York 'VrU»\tnc Vmost vigorously says:

Any borrowing at this time was simply inexcusable. The evident cause was a revolutionary change in the policy of the Nation toward its industries. After defending them and encouraging them for thirty years, it began to make war on them for the benefit of foreign competitors. Prostration followed as a matter of course. Depression of industries brought shrinkage of revenue. Not satisfied, Congress gave away •••'many millions to favored monopolies. and threw away about S74.000.00U of revenue derived from duties by whieh home industries had been defended.

LAST OF THE ICE AGE.

Tlir Change* That Constantly tlelng Wrought in Climtulc Comlltlon*. Hut now a change has oorne upon the forces, terrestrial or celestial, which have wrought such havoc on our globe, und the long winter is drawing to a close. At tirst the snow and ice melt, little faster than they form, and the forbidding rock-clad edges of the great white mantle draw slowly backward, The retreat of the ire is not oontinunus nor steady.and for how many hundreds or thousands of years the fierce struggle between heat ami cold for the Mastery of the continent may have lasted no man can say*

At last, however, in the region of North America which we now inhabit, the sun was victor. Hut he looked down upon a desoiatlon which langmiLro can but feebly describe. Hone are the forests which through earlier ages had struggled for a foothold on the hills swept away southward or destroyed are the forbidding monsters which wandered here. No green or growing thing has outlived those frigid Centuries, or withstood the scraping and scarring of the rocks. Sharp crags and ragged peaks upon the hills are worn ami ground awav. and old landmarks forever effaced. Some of the great inland lakes are deepened, some are gone, while new ones here and there are formed by the damming up or obliteration of the old. water courses by the vast masses of debris which the vanishing glacier has left.

And now the life .forces'must begin their work anew over this scene of desolation. The ice mantle has left not only loose rocks and bowlders scattered and piled in masses over the land, but great gravel and clay beds here and there witness the-tHoroughne^s oi the work. Hut the manufacture of soil suited to higher plant life must be slowly accomplished under inlluence of Kmer forms.

And so the plants crept slowly back over the bare scarred .rocks at first the lichen.sand their'lowly brethren, then the hardier plants which had clung desperately to life along the borders of the iee mantle .for so many weary shivering years and at last, as the longei summer claimed its own,-the full tide of green and blossoming forms poured up over the reconquered realm, bringing with them insects, birdsand beasts. j»ut

And if one w'O.ubi know how the regions which we.have just described, and now inhabit 'once -looked 'he ha.*- but to read.the thrilling stories of the hardy seekers for the north pole, and especially the tale of Nan-en's wanderings over the great iee plateau of Greenland, whose mountaintips are even now but just beginning to peer out- over the dreary wastes of ice and snow.

SPIDER THREADS.

1 HE (JLH :I IIHIIK* OF hem ••'••••v-f A*: ninomrr-. 'I lu'.^'astrojoiiner*. ot the Kavijl Observatory at Washington have sought ail over the world for spiders' weos. Such .Lross«imer filaments, spun by industrious arachnids/are^'-utilized in telescopes fur ^cross lines extended at rj.Lriit nngles with en eh oilier across fhe field of view, so as to .divide the latter into mathematical spaces. Threads of cobwebs are employed for the purpose because, they are wonderfully strong for their exceeding fineness, and also for the reason that thev are not affected by moist ure or temper* ature.-.neither expanding nor contracting under any conditions. Specimen

were obtained frorri China by the director* of the observatory, because it was imagined that the large spider of that .'country* •:vVpuld perhaps produce a particularly excellent quality of w»di.

However, it was found that the best we!» is spun by the spiders of the United States, such as are found in the neighborhood of Wa^hington. Accordingly.. expeditions are made early in June each year to get from the fence* ami barns thereabouts cocoons of the big "turtle inotk" -spiders. Kach rocoon is composed' a single silken filament wound round, and round, though there are apt to be mie breaks in it where Mit ress Spider left otT w«.»rk for a time. Attempts ''have been made to use the cocoons of spiders- like those of silkworms and exquisite fabrics have been manufactured from them.. Unfortunately it was found impossible to make the industry a commercial success owing to the combative inclination of these creatures. When kept totfcithcr they wiiralways trobble each other up in a short thru-, the final result being a single very-large and fat spider and one cocoon Optician,

Spectacles ..were invented in Italy aboiit 12S5.|^|i'be3* were at first very expensive, mi were worn only by wealthy persons or noblemen, and so came In be regarded a* a mark of rank. When this fact came to be recognized the idea grew prevalent that, the lartrer the'spectacles-the greater the dignity they conferred.on the wearer, and the glasses yrew to a prodifrious size, "l here are two or three busts still extant of Italian gentlemen of this age who insisted that their spectacles? should also be represented in the marble, and in one of these cases the lenses nre nearly three inches in diameter.-.
