The Supreme Court handed down a decision Tuesday in which it unanimously declared the registry section of the new election law unconstitutional. This decision restores; the old status in- regard to. the qualification of voters, under which any person otherwise qualified who has been 'a resident of the state one year-,, of the township sixty days and of the precinct thirty days before the election is a legal voter. Under no circumstances is there any necessity of registering. The attempt of certain Democrats in this vicinity to prevent two old soldiers from voting for Harrison was as despicable as it was daring. The veterans had hung Harrison pictures in their windows and they were warned that if they ' did not take them down, and vote for Cleveland, their pensions would be stopped. Any party which is reduced to such nonsense for political argument must be in sore straits. The effort miscarried,. however; for the old soldiers were not the kind of stuff that is influenced by such nonsense, and they refused to be forced to vote against their principles. Traveling Stones in Nevada. The curious “traveling stones” of Australia are paralleled in Nevada. They are described as being perfectly round, about as largo as a walnut and of an ivory nature. When distributed ' about on the floor, table, or any smooth j surface within two or three feet of each j other they immediately commence traveling toward each- other and meet at a common center, and, there lie huddled in a bunch like eggs in a nest. A single stone removed to a distance of four feet, upon being released returns to the heap, but if taken away as much as five feet remains motionless. It is needless to say that they are largely composed of magnetic iron ore.—Grass Valley Union. The number of students of electrical subjects entered at Cornell university has increased from 28 in 1884 to 330 in 1893, and in many other institutions the proportionate increase is even-greater. One or two slight circumstances may bend the twig and thus incline the tree. A Christmas gift bent Dr. Schliemann, the discoverer of buried Troy, to hia life work.
