Driving a Hen.

Kate Thorn, In N. Y. Weekly.

Did yott ever undertake to drive a hen anywhere? If not, then never say "where there's a will there's a way," or "all things are possible to him who perseveres," because vou don't know anything about it.

Driving a hen properly, and decorously, and successfully, reouires more skill tlmn capturing a herd of buffalo.

The heu you want to drive Is always a

stroug-minded hen. If she had been a woman she would have wanted the ballot long ago. and her husband would have had to keep quiet when she "got set" on anything. But being only a hen, all she can do is to cackle, and* be contrary, and thwart you at every turn.

If you want her to go i» somewhere she'll be surv to want to go «*. and

w.v«i.

You want to drive her most when

she gets out of the coop, and gets into vour garden, to the total destruction of your pet bulbs, and roots, and seeds, and everything else. One smart, active hen will do more harm in a garden in one hour than a row would do in half a day.

A hen is lx»rn with the instinct to get to the root of the matter, and she follows out her nature. 3T When your hen sets out of confinement site makes straight tor your choicest flower^bed, and she stays there for an hour before vou discover her. By that time she 1 has *lug out everything that you cared anything about, ami has buried herself up all"but her head, and then she lies iu the sun with happiness and triumph in her spreading countenance.

How mad you are! Yott feel as if you could sever her joints and make her into a

pot-pie with a will—no matter if she is one of a trio that cost ten dollars. You go for her with energy, and scream out "shoo!" to her, and nourish your apron, and make wild gestures la her direction, and call your husband, and the children, and the hired gM, to tielp drive her into quarters.

Now, it is never any use to call a man to help drive a hen. We are willing to admit that the lords of creation can do quantities of things that the weaker sex cannot, but there ts one thing a man can never do—and that is to drive a hen.

Hell break the rake-handle, and get hung in the clothes-line, and lose his hat, and tall down over the croquet wickets, and burst off two or three of his suspender buttons, and the hen will fly up on top of the barn, or take refuge in the tallest tree on the premises, and tnere she will stay and laugh at him till she is ready to come down. And all the men in creation cannot drive her down, for she knows that she has got things her own way.

Your nen that you are going to drive generally cackles all the time you are trying to drive her. It gives her courage, perhaps, to defy you. It is like the music of a martial band when the troops are marching into battle. It is as inspiriting as the strains of Yankee Doodle to the hen's ear. You try gentleness first. "Shoo, biddy!shoo, biddy?shoo, there!" and she plunges off in the direction contrary to the one you wish her to go in and then vou draw off your forces and execute a flank movement, and "pen" her up, but, presto! just as you think you have got her, she squats and gives a scout right out under your skirts, and away she goes free as air. Then you get some corn and try to bribe her. Oh, no, she doesn't want any corn, thank you. She is above bribery. She doesn't take any stock in your "chicky! chicky! chicky!" delivered tn your most cajoling of voices. Still she cackles. All the roosters cackle, too, evidently tickled with her spunk. A few liens who are not curious join in. All the neighbors will be looking out to see 'Svhat on earth vou are malting them liens screech so for."

Your husband gets a pole and makes a dive for that hen. He'll fix her cackle for her! he says she'll go into that lieu-house, or he'll know the reason!

And by the time he has chased her all over the premises and fbrn his pants, and knocked apiece of skin off his hand, and runs over little Charley, he does find out the reason. It is because she is not of a mind to go into that hen house.

And he says that hens area nuisance, and that lie will kill the whole of 'em, and he wishes there had never been one invented.

By this time you are tired of his help, and you request him to go away and you 11 drive that hen in.

Then you begin. The hen begins, too. She flies over a fence, and tip on a neighbor's woodshed, and down into somebody's pigpen, and the pig takes after her with a vim, and she flies out with a screech and runs under the barn, and there she stays until night, and then if you will leave open your hen house door she will find her way thither, as meek and innocent looking as you please—for "chickens and curses come" home to roost."

THE A*KND.WEXm

What Tliey Are and Wl»y the People of Indiana Mlioutd Vote lor Them. To the People of Indiana:

Seven important amendments to the constitution of Indiana have been agreed to by a majority of the members elected to each of the two houses of the General Assemblies of 1877 and 1879, and by an act of the last General Assembly, approved March 10th, 1879, these said amendments are to be submitted to the electors of the State of Indiana for ratification or rejection, at an election to be held on the nrst Monday in April 1880. The law providing for the submission of these amendments to the electors of the State enacts that "The Secretary of State shall procure ballots of blue paper on each of which shall be printed the proposed amendments, and below each amendment shall

ed the word 'Yes' in one line, and in another line the word 'No that any qttal-

vote for any amendment he shall leave thereunder the word 'Yes' and erase the won! 'No' by drawing a line across it, or otherwise. If he intends to vote against any amendment, the word "Yes* shall in a like manner be stricken out and the word 'No' left and if both words are allowed to remain without either of them being so erased, the vote shall not be counted either way." These amendments are designated by numbers, and are numbered 1, 3, 8, 4, 5, 6 and 9, numbers 7 and 8 having failed to receive a majority of the votes of both branches of the last General Assembly. The ratification of each of these amendments is of such vital importance to the future well-being and prosperity of the people of Indiana as to justify a special effort in their behalf by every one having these objects at heart. They are mainly confined to the subjects of economy and honest elections.

AMENDMENT NO 1.

Amend section two of article two so as to read as follows "Section 2. In all elections not otherwise provided for by this Constitution, every male cittzen of the United States of the age of 21 years and upwards, who shall nave resided in the State during the six months, and in the township 60 days, and in the ward or precinct30 days immediately preceding such election, and every male of foreign birth, of the age of 31 years and upwards, who shall have resided in the United States one year, and shall have resided in the State during the six months, and in the township 60 days, and in the ward or precinct 30 days immediately preceding said election, and shall have declared hie intention to become ritiafcn of the United Stated oonforaaibl# to the laws of the United States on the subject of naturalisation, shall be entitled to vote in the township or precinct where he may reside. If he shall have been duly registered according to law."

As the Constitution now stands, no fixed period of residence it required in a township or ward before voting, and no barI riers against fraudulent voting can be maintained. When this amendment is adopted, one whose vote is challenged wiu I have to swear that he has been a resident of the township 60 days, and of the ward I or precinct 30 days, and thus the importatlon of votes and frauds upon the ballot box may be measurably prevented. No

one can object to this amendment who favors fair and honest elections. AirasmntOT HO. 3 simply provides for striking out the wonis: "No negro or mulatto shall have Oae right of suffrage," contained in section flvte of the second article of the Constitution.

And thereby conforming the constitution of Tndiari* to the Constitution of the United States. Hie prohibition as it stands in the constitution of Indiana today is a dead letter.

AXX5DMSST NO 8.

Amend section 14 of the second article to read "Section 14. All general elections shall be held on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, but township elections may be held at such time as may be provided by law. Provided, that the General Assembly may provide by law for the election of all judges of courts of general and appellate jurisdiction by an election to be neld for such officers only, at which time no other officers shall be voted for and shall also provide for the registration or all persons entitled to vote.'*

The arguments in faror of this amendment are mainly those of economy. The cost of holding a general election in Indiana is about $1,000 to the county, or nearly $100,000. By this amendment the State is saved the expense of double elections on Presidential election years. But this is not all. The other States of the Union having nearly all changed the time of their elections to November, as long as Indiana continues to vote in October she assumes the heat and burden of the Presi-

over $1,000,000. which expense was avoided by the States that did not vote until November. This amendment is clearly in the interest of economy and business prosperity. Business in the State is utterly demoralized for three months when the State is compelled to bear the brunt of the Presidential campaign.

AMENDMENT NO. 4

amends by striking the word "white" from sections 4 and 5 of article 4, conforming the same to the Constitution of the United States.

AMENDMENT NO.

amends the 14th clause of seetion 22 of article 4 to read as follows In relaliou to fees and salaries, except the laws may be so made as to grade the compensation of officers in proportion to the population and the necessary services required.

This provision will enable the General Assembly to grade the compensation of county officers and pay them in proportion to the population of the county and the services actually required. It will take away from the General Assembly the excuse now urged for paying exorbitant fees and salaries to such officers, which are out of all porportion to the compensation given for similar services in other avocations. We cannot see why it should meet with any opposition from tne people.

AMENDMENT NO. 6.

The following amendments proposed towit: Amend section 1 of the 7th article to read:

Section 1. The judicial power of the State shall be vested in a Supreme Court,, Circuit Courts, and such other courts as the General Assembly may establish.

The words "such other courts" are substituted for the words "such inferior courts," enabling the Legislature to establish other courts not inferior in jurisdiction to the Circuit Court, and to establish a perfect system of jurisprudence which will greatly reduce expenses and at the same time facilitate business. ..

AMENDMENT NO.

No political or municipal corporation in this State shall ever become indebted, in any manner, or for any purpose, to an amount in the aggregate exceeding two per centum on the value of the taxable property within said corporation, to be ascertained by the last assessment for State and county taxes, previous to the incurring of such indebtedness, and all bonds or olbigations in excess of such amount given by suoh corporations shall be void provided that in time of war, foreign invasion, or other great public calamity, on petition of a majority of the property owners, in number and value, within the limits of such corporation, the public authorities, in their discretion, may incur obligations necessary for the public protection and defense, to such amount as may be requested in such petition.

If this amendment had been passed 20 years ago the State of Indiana would have been $10,000,000 better off to-day, There has been litearlly no embargo upon the schemes of plunder which have beset the towns, cities and counties of the State. Tliis provision is designed to protect the taxpayers and limit the amount that may be assessed against them, and to which these municipalities may be burdened with debt.

The Republicans of Indiana are fully committed to all of these amendments, and the better class of the Democratic party also favored them in the last Gen

protection

taxpayers of the State against excessive burdens. They shonld each and every one of them be adopted by the electors of the State by not leas than one hundred thousand majority.
