It would not seem that a law against the sale of rotten eggs would be ne cessary in. these days, but Pennsylvania seem to think one expendient. It appears that in Philadelphia there is a large trade in "rots" and "spots" spoiled, cracked and dirty eggs anH a lilll ri htTi offered in thf Pennsylvania Legislature to make their, sale and use acrime. "Rots" and "spots,, are bought by the wholesalers, who sell them to bakers at about 6 cents a dozen. This fact known, the housewife who gets poundcake for ten and twelve cents a pound may understand how the baker can make it so much more cheaply than she can. One of the most singular wills ever recorded was that of a British sailor, who requested the executors to give his wife a shilling to buy hazelnuts, as she had always preferred cracking them to mending his stockings. More subtle, however, was the sarcasm of a will proved in 1830, in. which a wife received $2,500, but was only to enjoy it after her death in order that "she may be buried suitably as my widow," A French merchant bequeathed a large fortune to a woman of his acquaintance to show his gratitude for her refusal to marry him twenty years before.

EXTENDS POWER OF RAIL COMMISSION Sweeping Jurisdiction Given The Commission by the Garrard Measure. CAN SUPERVISE UTILITIES

NO CORPORATION CAN BEGIN CONSTRUCTION OF PLANT WITHOUT FIRST OBTAINING A PERMIT FOR THE SAME. Indianapolis, Feb. 6. The railroad commission of Indiana is vested with sweeping jurisdiction in the supervision of public utilities under the provisions of a bill introduced by Representative Garrard yesterday. The bill extends to all utilities, with the exception of steam and interurban railroads. The commission is given power to sujervise utilities furnishing telegraph or telephone service, district telegraph service, street railway service or those concerns which transmit heat, light, water or power, electrical current, steam, water, artificial or natural gas, or furnish public elevator or warehouse service. The bill carries with it a continuing appropriation of $20,000 to carry out the provisions during the existence of the commission; It Is provided in the bill that no utility shall begin the construction of any plant without first making application to the commission and obtaining an "indeterminate permit." which gives the right to use and occupy the streets and othes public places, provided that the permit does not conflict with the authority already vested in the boards of public works, councils or county commissioners to control and regulate the location of telegraph and electric light poles. Commission to Investigate. Before the commission grants the permit it must first be satisfied, either by an investigation or a public hearing, that the public convenience and necessity require the granting of the permit. In places where there is already one or more utilities furnishing the same service, the bill requires that the commission must satisfy itself that the public convenience requires the additional service. Thirty das' notice must be given by the company making application for the permit and in cases where there is another company furnishing similar service that concern also must be driven due notice. It is also provided that the commission shall arrange for the examination and testing of meters or other appliances used for measurement o? any product furnished by the companies. The consumers are also given the right to ask for a test of their meters, the consumer to pay for the test in the event the meter is found to be correct and the company to pay for it provided the meter is incorrect. The commission is given power to fix and enforce maximum rates for every class of service. In fixing the rates the commission is directed to take into consideration the cost to the owner of the utility, the cost of maintenance, etc. The owner or operator of the utility may make complaint concerning the inadequacy of the maximum rate fixed by the commission, and upon the filing the commission is directed to call a public hearing of those concerned, when the merits of the complaint will be determined. Foley's Honey and Tar clears the air passages, stops the irritation in the throat, soothes the inflamed membranes, and the most obstinate cough disappears. Sore and inflamed lungs are healed and strengthened, and the cold is expelled from the system. Refuse any but the genuine in the yellow package. A. G. Luken & Co. KEEN IMAGINATION. Tha VVay One of His Lectures Affected Louis Agcssiz. Children are not the only holders of the precious key of the imagination. The finest minds often keep the power of "make "believe." much to their own and the -world's benefit. That such a possession coupled with ardent enthusiasm makes demands on the nerves and strength is shown in the following anecdote, related by the late Moncure Daniel Conway In his autobiography. He was at one time a pupil of that famous man of science, Louis Agassiz. One particular lecture Agassiz devoted to displaying some fossils of san rians, newly come Into his collection' He made the subject a text for a general review of the chain of reptilian life. As he proceeded, darting off to the blackboard to illustrate, comparing the extinct with the contemporary fauna, he became more and more animated. His face reddened with excitement until at last he said: "Gentlemen, I ask you to forgive me If today I end the lecture at this point, although the hour is not out. I assure you I have been describing these extinct creatures until they have taken on a sort of life. They have been crawling, hissing, darting about me. I have heard the crawling and hissing until I am really exhausted. I regret it, gentlemen, but I trust you will excuse me." Our admiration for the grand teacher was such as to make us break through all rules, and we gave him a hearty cheer. He bowed low to us and quickly disappeared. . Some curious fish found in South American waters breathe with lungs as well as gilis. During the dry season the fish curls up at the bottom of a burrow, with Its tall over Its face, and remains there until the rise of water dissolves the plug with, which it

A LITTLE FISH'S TRICK.

How tho Puffer Discomfits His Enomy nd Savos Himself. All the llritle sea folk have their own clever way of protecting themselves from their enemies, but the piny boxfish has about the cleverest way of all. He belongs to the great family called puffer, and you w ill see in a moment bow well the name fits him. Just Imagine the little puffer swimming around in the water looking like c small round box with, a head on. A big fish comes along, sees the little puffer and thinks: "There's just a good mouthful for mel" But just as he darts toward him the little puffer blows himself up like a ball, turns ; over on his back and Coats around ; with all his sharp prickers sticking out toward Lis enemy. - The big fish is dazed: be stares at : the puffer and thinks, "Can that great prickly thing be the same little fish I tried to swallow';" He can t un- j derstaud it, but he sees there is no use trying, so he goes sadly on his ' way, and when the little puffer is sure be is gone he just empties the. water out of his skiu and goes back . to bis UHual nize. j Now, isu't that a pretty clever trick for a little fish to play? But, you see. Mother Nature gave the little puffer . just that kind of a body that he might escape from his enemies. St. Nicho- i las. i A SCOTCH RING. One of the Royal Jewels, It Had Melancholy History. The traditional history of the Scotch regalia ring is of the most tragic, not to say melaarholy. character. It is believed that it was the favorite ring of Mary Stuart and that aff-r her judicial murder in Fotheringny cjistle it was transmitted to her son. From James it descended to Charles I., nt whose coronation nt Scone in 1(33 it played a distinct part.

When, however. Le was detained by the fishermen at Sheerness. the ring, which had been sccretod in the kiug's underclothing, only escaped robbery by the luckiest of mistakes on the part of the sailor who searched him.

S ODD PRISON

Westminster Clock Tower Is the Finest Jail In England. BUT IT IS ALWAYS EMPTY. The Tower I j the British Parliament's House of Detention, and Chariot Bradlaugh Was Its Last Occupant. The Oid Prison In Former Days. If the average sentenced criminal were allowed to select his place of confinement his choice would probably fall en the Clock Tower prison at Westminster, as that Is the very finest prison in Great Britain and Is able to supply comforts and luxuries quite unknown to the ordinary Bill Sikes. But the law decides that members of parliament only may be confined in that jail, although rank outsiders could be committed to the Clock Tower for certain offenses against the rules and regulations of parliament. The Clock Tower prison, as It ex ists today, was erected in connection j with the house occupied by the ser-1 geant at arms. This official is in com-1 plote charge of any member com- j initted to the Clock Tower, and a i member cannot easily' make his es- J cape, because, in order to do so. he must pass through the house of the sergeant. Very few members of parliament are committed to the Clock Tower in these days. We have to go back many years to find a precedent. Mr. Charles Bradlaush being the last memler to occupy the cells at the Clock Tower, and he did not occupy them long. FI was handed over to the custody of the sergeant at arms on June 23. 18S0, committed to the Tower and released next day. Thrre are two sets of cells in th6 Clock Tower, an upper and a lower, but both suits of cells are much the same. In each there is a sitting room of very ample proportions, well carpeted and furnished and replete with most of the things which go toward ranking one comfortable. In eaeh suit there are two bedrooms one for the use of th" imprisoned M. P.. the other for the convenience of the jailer, who must always be on the spot in order to see that the legislator makes no attempt to escape. Any member of parliament sent to the Clock Tower by order of the speaker wt.uld be required to pay for his own food, and if he did not do so he could be tued in court. Any legislator incarcerated in the Clock Tower would be allowed To rise in the morning just when he pleased, and he could retire to bed when the spirit moved him. He could read to his heart's content and smoke as much as he liked, there being no restrictions over such matters; his whole punishment would lie iu being prevented from joining his fellows and mixing with them. lie would be taken out to exercise, but would always have two officials beside him to guard against any attempt at escape, and his exercise would b;? taken on the terrace lefore r.ho house sat for the day. Under no circumstances would be be allowed to hold converse with his fel low men. One way or another an imprisoned M. P. would not have a bad ime of it, and lie would not be kept 'a confinement for any lengthy pericd. But if the Clock Tower Is not much used nowadays, the Tower the prison of the house of commons of a former day was much in evidence. In olden times a passing remark, an observation obnoxious to the house, or, indeed, any trifle, was sufficient to send the culprit forthwith to the Tower, and not to the Tower only, for a member could be committed to Newgate. Sometimes the reason for committing a member to the Tower was somewhat amusing, as witness the case of a member for Southampton who once entered the house in a drunken condi tion and, mistaking the speaker for ar owl sitting in an Ivy bush, addressed him as swell. Result the Tower However, the member was released next day and severely reprimanded for his ridiculous behavior. The Tower was made use of by the long" parliament. In one day as many as eleven Presbyterian members of the house were 'Committed to the custody of the sergeant at arms and flung into the Tower. And. to show that members were not committed for errors In speech nlone. one has only to mention the case of Captain Churchill, who in 1869 was committed to the Tower for refusing to take merchant ships under the protection ohis man of war unless he received a gift of 200. In those days they had to pay, stiffly for the privilege of being sent to the Tower, as witness an extract from the diary of Lord Clarendon, written the dav. following, his committal i
