Tiikiii seems to be a general understanding that Robert A. Brown, of the 1'ranklin Hcitublhan. will be elected t'lerk of the House when the Legislature meets. He has very little opposition and his selection would certainly be pleasing to Republican party all oyer the State and the House would at the sjftue time secure a most eflicient otlicer.

I'liK I'AYKKWKATHEl! MILLIONS. The New York TrUtunc editorially comments on Judge Truax's decision in the Fayerweather will contest as follows:

The decision of Judge Truax annulling the remarkable deed of gift made bv the executors of the Fayerweather estate is another cogent illustration of the perils which environ the testamentary disposition of property. It has been announced already by counsel for the heirs that an appeal will be taken in their behalf, and not improbably the executors will make further efforts to defend their claim to absolute control of the residue, in opposition to the decision of Judge Truax that the be-, quest was impressed with a secret! trust which they are bound to fulfill. The prospect, therefore, is that mil-

ROBBED HIS FISH LINE.

A Wolf Tlul Sur.'.-H.fully Plnr*"! Thirf lor a Yl'erk. Down at Pretty Lake. Ind.. old Charley Cook used to In? a great tiriierman. People all over the country used to know he could catch flsh whether there were any or not. lie had a, place along the bank of the lake which he looked upon as his own, and was seldom trespassed upou by neighbors. And there he had built a staging out into the lake and set his lines from the end of it. Every morning he used to come down and take the r. fish that had been caught in the night.

One time, says the Chicago Herald, he came down there and found the line in the water, but the huok was, as he afterward expressed it, "as naktid as a bird's foot." That night tye baited the hook again and set it. and in the morning he found it empty again. That sort of ihing went on for a week. There were 110 tracks in the soft sand and he did not know whom to suspect. He took a fish-line and stretched it about the entranoe to his staging and attached the end of it to a string of sleigh bells, so that the trespasser, whoever he might be, would ring an announcement of his felony.

I"'U the fi"h were gone fre rj the hook in the morning, and the line about the entrance of the staging was Just as he had left It. Mr. Cook wa* in a good/j deal of trouble- But he was a per.-i.-t-ent man. and so he fixed up a shelter and laid out there one night andwatched with his shotguu in hi- u:::uL About midnight he heard a noise at the farther end of the -t:!guig. a splashing in the water and a hu growl. lie could not understand ii, because ho had been watchin cl"-ely:' and no man had passed. But he came closer and saw small animal out there above the deep water, and it was struggling with a fish. Mr. Cook put his gun to his shoulder and fired, and a small gray wolf leaped into the water and swam to the shore, where he took another shot and finished it.

That wolf had been robbing his tlsh line every night for a week. *8

ANCIENT EGYPTIAN SOLDIERS.

DUcov*»rtes That flare Latflr f?e*n M»d« In the Tomb of AwWt. Mention was recently made in a foreign e.-ichauge the discovery of the tomb of Assiut (fifth dynasty) of wooden models of two companies nf Egyptian soldiers. Each company consists of forty .figures about thirteen inches high, fixed to a wooden board in squads of four. The figures are colored and have the l"in cloth. They are equipped with spear and shield. The spears are as long as the men ami the butts carried on a level with the knee. The bronze heads are about one-sixth the total length of the .-pear, and are shaped like those of the Hag^ara Arabs of to-day. The shields have a square base and come a point, and are eight inches long. Across the narrow portion is a batten, through which the hand passes. The second squad are black-skinned, smaller men. and wear a scanty loin cloth. Their arms are bows and arrows, and the arrows tipped with flint, with edges chiselshaped and the tips not sharp. The Egyptian contingent marches in regular order, "locked up:" the negro soldiers straggle. The latter must hare been the irregulars, because to use the bow and arrow must have required a loose formation.

lions of dollars designed for the use of numerous institutions of learning and charity will remain tied up indefinitely while vexatious and costly litigations enriches a score of lawyers. A more impressive lesson to those having the desire and ability to benefit their fel-low-men by a distribution of their matenal possessions has not been inculsince Mr. Tilden's noble purpose

Nor are considerations directly relating to the testator the only considerations of importance in this case. Through common-sense ratifies Judge Truax's opinion that the residury of the estate ought to be divided eomformably to the specific bequests, the fact remains that many institutions have been formally authorized to cherish expectations which are now suddenly blighted, and to form plans which are presumably destined to miscarry. Here is the Woman's Hospital, for example. which under the deed of gift would certainly have received 8200,000, and in all probability not far from 3."00.000 more, but which, if this decision is sustained, will have to content itself with the comparatively paltry gift of 510.000. This will deemed a dreadful misfortune by those who are especially interested in that institution—a misfortune, moreover, which bears a semblance of a wrong.

The prospective loss of $200,000 by the Woman's Art School of the Cooper Cnion doubtless is likewise peculiarly grievous and exasperating to its managers. students and benefactors. Then there are several minor colleges which, having had reason to rejoice at the prospect of additions, relatively munificent, to their meagre resources, are compelled to resume the old burden of anxious calculation and narrow economy. The decision of Judge Truax seems equitable and therefore in a large sense salutary, but such disappointments as these are hard to bear.

Whatever may remain in doubt pending the result of a final appeal, it is certain that Mr. Fayerweather had po.ver to prevent all this litigation, confusion aud attliction by distributing among his chosen beneficaries in his

lifetime the immense sum which lie had resolved to devote to charity and have hire
