ran iitisband, »nd he was as mad as the American husband commonly is tinder Hieh circumstances. A reception was noioic on "upon the inside," at the time, and it was necoteary to close the doorp, finally, against the company. The president was uot let in until two or th ee patriots had discovered him, clutched his hand and said how proud and pleased they vera to meel dkfrvr- put him in a

The authority of Ihe quteu has been estened over Eastern Zaltilacd, ''with the as-sent of (he Zulus." There is trcinendoiia satire in the "afsent" of the people who have submitted to Brit ish ride. No one denies that the redemption of territory, which it has acquired in Asia and Africa, is a benefit. Barbarian customs have been abolished, and many cruel superstitions eradicated. But the "assent'" has been obtained by bloody battles, in which the superiority of British discipline finally prevailed, and, in some instances, maintained only after repeated rebellion, which threatens still to this day. it the rest of civilization understand perfectly what the •'assent" reallv it.

There is not much difficulty in securing appropriations for objects that are, of no especial importance. Therefore it seems strange that there should even be anv argument or quibbling over funds needed to maintain the state educational institutions. During the speech making of the legislative committee yesterday a K'ood deal was said that is worthy of remembrance, and ought to furnish food for much reliection. First of all, it is encouraging to know that the state schools are not without active and disinterested friends in "tho general assembly men who recognize the neceesity of free and thorough education for the masses, and each member of the committee seemed proud and anxious lo be classed among that number. But the speech of Governor Robertson, though brief and concise, was the speech of the occasion. He alluded in particular to the attitude of the trustees of sucb an institution as the State Normal toward ihe legislature when presenting its needs to t.heir consideration. They should not beg, but ask as men ask who are demanding their just dues. They should not be constrained by motives of modesty, but ask for more, that they might receive enough for the actual expenses. He believed that the time would come when the amount asked for would be granted without demur. That time, however, is not now, and before it arrives much must be accomplished hy bchools and teachers. Jn the meantime wise men believe fhat all (bat can lie accomplished toward the adt: ration of the people should have the furtherance of legislation. The honorsble member to-day who "expects the support and aciiuievcence of his constituency juust do all that be can to aid and extend tho public schools, in nil tlieif branches.

The inter-Ocean asks some pointed ijimstioriB. Supposing, says that journal) that in any county of any northern plate a change little less than miraculous in (suddenness had converted a traditional and habitual Democratic, majority •.-f to a Republican majority of

Suppose that this change had been accompiuiied by the.appearance of armed and masked men at the polls who had intimidated, wounded, and slain Demo c.ratic voters, and only Democratic voters, Suppose that after the polls had closed other masked and armed men had seized anil destroyed the ba.lots in the strongly Deim.cratic precincts of the county, and only in the strongly Democratic pierincle. Suppose that after the ill-gotten victory of the Republicans had been won the more active Democrats of he county were warned to leave the county, under penally of sssat'sination. Suppose that, terrilied by the openness and earnestness of such threats, Mich Democrats did leave the enmity, sacrificing their properly and abonding their business. Suppose that ihe Republicim hatred of such Democrat were so tierce, so fanatical, ami so cruel that a b:md of the more consei vati ve Republicans took it upon itself to escort the exiled Demo crats beyond the county lines, as ,the sole means of preserving their lives from the fury of the Republican mass. Suppose that these facts were sworn to hymen of good repute, suppose they were not fully denied by even the Republicans of the county would the groat body of people in the North join in universal execration of the Democrats who urged concre.'Bional investigation?

Chauze the word Northern into South-{ em and Republican into Democrat wherever it occurs, in ihis hypothetical r|uest'.on, and there is a plain, unvarnished statement of facts alleged to have happened at the last congressional elecion in Washington county, Texas.

It is extremely dangerous for lawmakers to interfere with pritale business in this country. Men who have accuruui.Ved capital, by hard work, and by the exercise of brains and energy, rightfully consider that it belongs to them, to invest or dispose of as they see fit. All honorable men, and men must be hon orable who, in any cal'iag, achieve permanent success, will do, voluntarily, the things which they will refuse to do if an attempt at force is made. Manufacturers say that the proposed lsw regulating the payment of employes will have the fleet of keeping manufacurers out of the state. They will not invest capital, or provide employment for workmen where the law assumes the control of what are strictly private enterprises, and which should be so regarded. Furthermore, it is difficult to see where it will all end- We have the business of railroads already interfered with by law now the manufacturing interests are to be meddled with, and there is no reason to think or believe that merchants or farmers will be permitted to carry on their businfss without let or hindrance. Too many laws, too much law-making, too many leeislators are a menace to liberty, and threaten the commercial prosperity of the country. Laws that are not enforced, or are violated with impunity, have the etlect of into con­

tempt'ftndjare worse thnnj none.^And they will not stand. The telephone law, which was enacted at the la3t legislature, is to bs repealed by the present one Those that are enacted this year will be repeale 1 two yesro hence, and the farce repeats itself ad infinitum. The work of legislatures is becoming purely experimental. There seems to be no desire to accomplish lasting good. The laws of the Medes and Tertians may have been objectionable in some of their features, but they were worthy of imitation in others.

The women of the evicted districts of Ireland have hit upon a new scheme to thwart the evictors. When thf gentlemen armed with legal doeumecU appear tio women strip and jamp into bed. Thus far not one has been evicted from bod.

Vilas' waltz is destined to rival "The Beautiful Blue Dannbe" in its prolonged popularity, unless the Capital is mistaken. It thinks that the postmaster-Kenerel is going to be a power in the Democratic party for a good while.

A RUSSIAN RAILROAD.

lotoil*«»f the FoRtivitiPH Invilpd (iiio.Htx -A Native Collation. The official opening of the MervTchardjoui railway, which has recently taken place at Tcharrijoui, has been the occasion of great rejoicing. The Russian Official Messenger publishes the following details of the festivities, which seem to have attracted a large number of natives: "When the laying down of the rails was completed to Kilte-Minar, the bek of Tchardjoui, accompanied by hi6 chief functionaries, came to congratu. late the builders of the railway. General Am nkoft received them in his carriage, and invited them to breakfast, during

which the train began to move, to the great astonishment of tho Bokliaritns, who had never before feen a railway train. In recognition of the amiable reception which had been given to him, the bek sent the soldiers of the Second Railway battalion several sheep aod a quantity of ru-e, on which thev feasted for two days. Un December 11! the first train arrived at the paved platform of the Tchardjoui station, with the military governor of the Transcas pian province and 150 invited guests, among them several ladies. The festivities commenced by a native collation, offered by the bek, in tents near the station in the evening a ball and supper were given in the counrry house, which the bek had put at General Annenkoff's disposal.

Mr. Jas. A. Lruyser, York, Ta., cured a bad attack of pleurisy by using St. Jacobs Oil.

HERE AND THERE.

The Biack Diamond, a Chicago coal journal, in its most recent issue contains several references to members of the Columbus convention who are we'l known to be identified with the coal interests of Indiana. There were several hundred in aitendance at Columbus. The operators and miners were business like in their proceedings, and no doubt there was far more ability centered in the convention liall of coal men than iu an average state legislature. The following are clipped from the Diamond. Colonel Yeoman, it will bo remembered, presided st the convention held here several weeks ago. Mr. Wilton waB also present, as was also Mr. Tennant. "The spokesman of the Indiana delegation, Mr. S. Tennant, won the admiration of everyone in attendance by the clear, irrefutable logic characterizing his every statement, showing the able lawyer. "In electing Colonel S. N. Yeoman presiding officer of the convention, a most liappy choice was made. Strictly impartial in his ruliugs, kindly but firm, his decisions were warmly re-echoed by the members in attendance. Colonel

Yeoman deserves much praise for the calmness, patience and ability that characterized the discharge of his responsibility as chairman of the convention, during its long and sometimes wearisome session. "Talk about Moody and Sankey's work among the ungodly, and their success in converting sinners. Mr. Edward Wihou. of Clay county, Indiana, did more to convert many an ego.ist in that convention into adopting the gospel of amity, good will and conciliation, than half a duzen Moodys and Sankeys could have done. Mr. Wilton should be on the rostrum. Meanwhile, however, it is but expressing the sentiments of every member attendant at the convention, to wish him, his dear Anna Maria and the host of little Wiltous, a most hearty God speed."

"There is one important thing which has not yet been mentioned in reference to the Athletic association," said a gen tleman who is passing a subscription paper, "ft is in neglecting to state that the park will be used by the shooting clubs of the city. I have assurances that these clubs will aid us materially in building the park. The idea is that it shaii be devoted to all athletic sports. There is anottier impression which I wish io correct, and that is that the old stockholders of the base ball association are not in favor of the new association I have talked with a number of them and they say they will belp the enterprise. The old hall club would h. ve made money if they had not entered the Northwestern le-igtte, and were put lo a great deal more expense A good IOCKI base ball eluh would draw but then the success of the park does not necessarily depend on base ball.

Sarchelt, a noted rough whose house near Sunford, 'but who had lived while at Fontanel is here, he had bpcouie terror to the pvople, was before the Ci cult, court Monday.

He was bard, stitTand quick-tompf.'vd. lie died recently, leaving, it is said, a largo part of bis fortune to one of his female servants. Cardinal Jacobini was thereupon hastily called to Rome from the Vienna niinchilure, succeeded Nina and has known how to keep his place ever since. When he fears that he may be removed, the wily ecclesiastic give mi. that, he is ill at Ouy.-no, his Yarain. .J obini vr ill never make Nina's mis take and be too independent. It is believed that lie is closely allied with tin ultra-conservative, church party, hut he is careful not to show his preferencts lie takes happy view of life and his office. Always gay and of a skeptical 'urn of mind, he conducts the most diflicub negotiations in the cheeriest manner. The tljplomatic body likes ihe secretary very much, lie aud his brother have together a large fortune, and tho product of their vineyards is celebrated at Romp. This fat, good-natured little fellow, who is always at bis post, notwithstanding his capricious health, amuses Leo XUI. with court gossip and doesn't bother him very much with advice, lie is careful not lo cross his Holiness, and is never at loss, ir. his relations with the foreign embassadors', tcrgood reasons why they they should yield to the muster's will.

The weather for the past few days has been such that the mud in the streils haB dried up to some extent. The streets are now in the proper condition for beir denned. The street commissioner's attention is railed lo the favorable conditions for performing a much needed cleaning up. During the rainy weather the plea went up in defense of the com misMoner's neglect to perform bin duty, that it would be impossible io clean the streets. No such defense can now be made, aud the commissioner will be held responsible for the streets, l.ot the first efforts of the commissioner be devoted to the business streets, which are in much worse shape than others which are not so frequently traveled clean up, and clean tip immediately, Mr. Commissioner.

A fUg was run up nn the dig stafi'011 the postoftico building yesterday, by order of Postmaster .lohn Regan, and tloated languidly in the breeze. A group of gentlemen were standing on Sixll street when one of them chanced to see tho national ensign. "1 wonder what that flag's for?" said

one of them. "I don't know do you?" "Ob, yes the legislative committees are in town to-day. I guess it is run up for them." "I expect that is it," came the reply, and the group separated without one of them realising thaf is was the birthday of tbe immortal Washington.

The Dlfflcnlty.

Wall Btroet News. Th'c difficulty iu the interpretation of

the long and short haul section (section •1 of the inler-state commerce law) can be understood with the aid oi the following

A

2 j)

The law forbids s» greater change in th« aggregate for carrying, say, a barrel of flour from to or from to than from A to D. So far it is perfectly plain. But the next point is: Does it forbid a gieater charge for carrying the barrel between 1 and then between 1 and "J? or between and than between 1 and 2 One party will insist that it does and another that it does not. The matter will have to be decided hy the railroad commissioners, subject to the adjudication of the courts. Undoubtedly the governing principle in the interpretation of the section will be the requirement that the shipments must be "under substantially similar circumstances and conditions."

W11, Hardly.

St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Gen. Bragg and other Democratic statesmen are said to be "greatly an-

noyed" by impostors wearing badges of army organizations. Such frauds should be suppressed, of course but as no one is 'ikely to adopt the disguise of a Union soldier for the purpose of getting an office under the present administration it is hardly worth while for any Democrat to bother hiinsel, about the matter.

THE STATE NORMAL.

Tho Vi *it of the* Legltluilvv ComuttUeo Yesterday.

The educational committees of the senate and house of the slate legislature arrived in the city at 10 o'clock yesterday morning. The Yandalia railroad gave them a special c*r, but the delegation WKS so large that they could not all find se^ts in the car and entered the other coaches. Besides the p:ember.i of the committees there wtie the wives of many of them, other members of the legislature and friends. The members of the school board were also present.

When the train arrived at the depot a long line of carriages was in waiting. They were met by a committee who escorted the distinguished guests to the Normal school. The regular routine of school work was in progrts* and the visitors spent-about an hour in visiting tbe different departments of the school and listening to recitations which were in progress. At about 11 o'clock the Students, faculty, visitors and a liberal outpouring of Terre Haute residents assembled in the session room on the second floor, which was quite crowded. The young ladies of the school had evidently put on an extra ribbon or bow, anticipating tbe usual compliments which the law-makers if Indiana invariably shower ni«on them. The young men also seemed to have arranged their toilet with greater care preparatory to receiving hints that some day or other they may become famous educators, statesmen, and the professions in the category generally used by speakers. The legislators appeared to realize that they faced a critical audience and put on their most distingue airs, while musing what ntirring thoughts they should pour forth when called upon to offer a few remarks.

President W. W. Parsons, of the Normal, arose and, tapping lor order said that the educational committees of the legislature were present, and that it was evident that the audience was desirous of hearing from them. He said, however, that he would occupy a short time in speaking of the objects of the school, lie explained the purpose for which the institution was established and the manner in which the woik of tbe school was carri on. The students are not only thoroughly drilled in the theo ry of teaching, but are given actual practice in the training department. Tht president stated that about.?,000 students had been enrolled on the school register Eince the opening. Of this number 84 per rent, were the children of farmers, mechanics »nd laborers. Only lti per cent, of the studer-ts are the children of merchants, hankers and (he wealthier class. Of the number graduates of the school fit) per cent, are engaged iu actual school woik.

In speaking of the cost of tbe school to the state, the. president said that last year !•()'. students were enrolled, with an average rw niroUmeiuof •h'!2. The resources of ihe school were $30,000. On the basis of llie term enrollment the actual cost !n the ste.te for each student for the entire year was or tho amount, it cost the state to keep one student iu j-ciiot/1 dining last year. According to stnttic the sfstte receives $'20,000. There are twenty-one teachers employed in the institution. This amount is not suiiieien! to pay the salaries r.f the teachers. The last legislature was askid fr.t $10,000 uddit.iotiHi to be expended for additional expenses. Between three anil four thousand of this amount hud been paid to the teachers, leaving about $(i,000 for incidental purposes. Uf this amount $500 wero spent on the library, and $1,0(10 for scientific purposes. The president urged a little larger appiopriation for the. department:) of tbe school.

The president then said ibr.t he would uot t:d any more time to the discussion of the school :ijd its needs, but would allow the legislators to give an expression of their views "We'll divide time with you, if you wtli cut it short," s: id Pulton,of Sullivan county.

President Parsons then said that as the chairman of the senate ediicatioua cominiitce was not,

present

[lt would

introduce Alfred Scott, of Morgan county, chairman of t.he house commit fee. He made a brief speech, contrasting the character of Ihu state institution at Bloomington, Lafayette and Terre Hiute. Ho spoke in complimentary terms of the school in this city.

Ir. Mayor, of Shelby county, war, then called on. He was followed by Representative DeMotte, of Porter. Mr. DeMotte said that be was born at Cranp's mill, in Otter Creek, north of the city, in ISoS. He gave quite an inter esting sketch ol pioneer )ife .in this vi :inily at thai early dale. He was followed by Joseph Charman of Waymcounty, Oiborne of Tippecanoe, James W. French of Posey and Gibson, graduate of the school, and Kellison, of Marshall county. The twik of the last-named was much appercialed. These being all •if the inenjb-'rs of the committee who were present, other members of the legislature were called upon. •Yninng those who spoke were Stubblctield of Pike, Bsasley of Sullivan, Vigo md Vermillion, and Patton of Sullivan. Mr. Pat ton's speech was perhaps the most noted of tbe day for its wit aud humor, lie was fnquently interrupted by cheers and laughter. Especially was his review of former speeches appreiated. Other speeches were msde by various legislators

Shortly before 1- o'clock an adjournment WRs taken and the visitors and nvited guests repaired to the Terre Haute house for dinner. After dinner the visitors will leave by special train for ludianftpolis.

FACTS ABOUT FEBRUARY.

Hrent Mm Who Were ISotii mid Who li.-U During Thi« Month. Button Traveler.

There have been a good many men born in February who have afterward became great. The Marquisof Salisbury was first taken in tbe nurse'3 arms on the 3d of February, 1830, and nn the same day of the year 1829 Mendelssohn lirst gave evident: of his musical soul, which afterward dev«lo]ed into sucb grandeur. The 7th of 'the month in I SI 2 Charles Dickens was born, sureiv .in event of which any month may be well proud. As the first md greatest president, Washington -vas born in this month, so it haliie honor of producing him who by common consent is entitled to the fame of be.ngthe second create:! President the eountrv haH ever had—Abraham Lincoln was horn the 12th of the month. Again, ine of the greatest philanthropist' this •ountry has ev?r produced, George Peaoody, first opened hiseyeo to the world the ISth of this month, in tbe year 17!'3. Although February is not a month over •vhich poets are enthusiastic, it was the 27th of this month that the most famous :f America's poets, Henry W. Longfellow, liret sang his little songs, although it is not recorded whether they were in rhyme or not. Hsviiig so many distinguished men bom in its davs, the next thought is to see who died while the lays were called February. And the list of persons who have gone to their final rest in February is :t most distinguished one, aud includes Thomas Carly!e, Mary (ueen of Scots and Martin l.uiher. But February of last year saw 111 any notable men of this country expire, for in this month dind John I'hilbriek, General Winfield S. Hancock, ex-Governor Seymour, John B. Gotigh and Professor John Pattock. February is apt to be a very gay month socially in 'his section of the country, and this will be more than ever the esse this year, for Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lont, occurs this year on the 23d, and people will have to crowd their pleasures be tween the 1st and the 2od in order to hi considered socially correct.
