In Ills “Life of Thomas Rrnckett Reed." popularly known ns "Czar" Reed. Snmuel YV. McCall relates bow tile great question of tile quorum that whs counted arose. The famous issue cnme up shortly after Heed’s re- election as speaker In December, 1889 The Republicans had so narrow n ma jority that business would have been difficult even without the filibustering of the opposition. On .Inn. ‘20. 1890, Dnlzell reported from the committee on elections an award of a contested seat to a Repub lican. "Crisp raised the question of consid eration. and only 103 members respond ed. or two less than a quorum. Not merely was It beyond the power of the Republicans to produce a quorum at that time, but It appeared equally cer tain that they would not be utile to produce one ut any time during tbut congress. "Reed had carefully planned to meet the emergency which had long seemed to him Inevitable and had determined upon Ills course. But the element of doubt was whether his party associ ates In the house would sanction the radical course which he meditated. He was intending to overturn not merely Democratic precedents, but Republican precedents ns well. "Times nlmost without number the leaders of his own party hud main tained that the constitutional quorum was to be determined by the roll call and not by the bodily presence of members. The position had never se riously been questioned that If a ma jority of the representatives failed to answer to their names on the calling of the roll there was no quorum pres ent tor the transaction of business, even if every member might actually be present in the ball of the house. * * * “Instead of ordering the roll to he called again Reed calmly said. ’The chair directs the clerk to record the names of the following members pres ent and refusing to vote.' He then proceeded to name a number of Dem ocrats and among them Cnrlisle and other Democratic leaders who were present when their names were called and who refrained from voting. “At once tlie house was in an up roar. There was an explosion as vlu lent as was ever witnessed in a legis lative body The speaker's recital ot the names was Interrupted by passion nie remonstrance, llis course was de nounced as revolutionary Kor a con siderable time tiie tumult stopped the business of the house. Reed remain ed unruffled, and when the noise would for a moment subside be would add to his count of Democrats present and not voting “One member of much dignity, hut not conspicuous for sense of humor, gravely arose with u book tn his hand and said, 'I deny your right. Mr. Speaker, to count me as preseut. uud 1 desire to read from the parlia mentary law on that subject.' Reed raised a hearty Inngb by coolly saying in reply and with bis customary drawl: ‘The chair is making a state ment of fact that the gentleman from Kentucky Is present. Does he deny it?’ “After the noise had subsided suffi ciently for the speaker to make a con needed statement be proceeded to state the question to the house: 'The chair treats this subject tn orderly fashion and will submit his opinion to the bouse, which, if not acquiesced in by the bouse, can he overruled on an ap peal takeu from the decision.’ "He then proceeded to state his opin ion in a few words Referring to the constitutional power of the house to compel the attendance of absent mem bers. be said: 'ir members can tie pres ent and refuse to exercise their func tion—to wit. not be counted as a quo rum—that provision would seem to be entirely nugatory. Inasmuch ns the constitution only provides for tbelr at tendance. that attendance is enough. If more was needed the constitution would have provided for more.’ " Disorder was renewed, hut after a hot debate the rujjng was sustained. Reed's party standing by him to a mnn. and the supreme court subse quently confirmed the point. VICTOR HUGO AT LIEGE. His First Impression of the Busy City as Seen at Night. Shortly after the l''runco-Prussian war Victor Hugo, the Drench poet, visited Belgium and subsequently wrote of Ills journey: “The shades of evening drew near— the wind ceased blowing; lights burned dimly in neighboring houses; every thing became half lost tn the dusk. The passengers said. We shall lie 111 Liege In an hour.' "At that moment, at the foot of the hills, which loomed dark and scarcely visible, two round balls of fire sud denly glared like the eyes of tigers. By the roadside rose a frightful dark slender tower, surmounted by a huge dame that east a sinister reflection upou forest ris k uud ravine. Beyond, hidden in the shadows, was a mouth— u mouth of live coal which suddenly opened and shut uud with hideous roarings spouted forth a tongue of fire. It was the lighting of the tur ns ces. "After passing the spot called Fle- mnile the sight was Inexpressibly mag nificent All tlie valley seemed to tie iu a state of conflagration, smoke Is suing from this place and flames aris ing from that; in fact we could imagine that u hostile array bad ravaged tlie country, and that twenty districts presented iu the night and darkness ull the aspects and phases of devastat ing conflagration—some Just catching fire, some shrouded in smoke, others swept or encircled by flames. "This aspect of war Is caused by peace—thlH terrifying similitude of de struction is the effect of industry." ITALY’S NATIONAL GAME. Morra Is Played With the Fingers and Is Older Than Chess. We are apt to look on marbles as the most economical of games, but "mor- ru" is perhaps the most economical game in the world, for it demands nothing hut a pair of hands. The players each throw out tlie right hand, with a number of lingers extend ed. Then each has to call "five." "three.” "eight." or any number llmt he considers equal to the number of flu. gers extended by himself and Ids op ponent added together, in this lies the test, for an old hand can divine by the very turn of his opponent's fingers how many lie is going to extend. Whenever a player guesses the right total iu any throw he counts it on Ills left hand by folding In a finger of Unit hand. It takes nine such correct guesses by one player to make a game This game Is proscribed by law If practiced In public; hence the devotees betake themselves to alleys and by ways Kront i lie silence of these re gions there comes the tell tale howling of the raucous players As game stto- seeds game, and tlie wine they play for is consumed, the piny becomes more Intense, the cries more hoarse and loud, so that one would imagine they were dogs barking. No game is older than ibis—eveo chess must yield the palm for antiqui ty—and yet it is its popular and as primitive today as when first played on the banks of the Nile.—Strand Mttg- azlue. Most Terrible Drug. A writer in Harper's Weekly says: ‘‘Cigarettes are not mere rolls of to bacco. They are not drugged with ex pensive poisons, as is charged, but' they have a peculiarity. The combina tion of burning paper and tobacco makes a compound which is neither to bacco smoke nor paper smoke, but has a name which chemistB know, and a smell which everybody knows. There is not much of the new compound, but tn what there is of it lies the idiosyn crasy of the cigarette, Thomas A. Edison may be supposed to know what he is talking about when he says: Acrolein is one of the most terrible drugs in its effect on the liurnun body. The burning of ordinary cigarette pa per always produces acrolein. That is what mokes the smoke irritating. 1 really believe that it often makes boys insane. We sometimes develop acro lein in this laboratory in our experi ments with glycerine. One whiff of it from the oven drove one of my assis tants out of the building the other day. 1 can hardly exaggerate the dangerous nature of acrolein, Bnd yet that iBwhut a man or boy is dealing with every time he smokes an ordinary cigurette. ” Greatly Benefited by Chamberlain’s Liniment. “I have used Chamberlain’s Liniment for sprains, bruises and rheumatic pains, and the great benefit 1 have received justifies my recommending it in the highest terms,” writes Mrs. Florence Slife, Wabash, Ind. If you are troubled with rheumatic pains you will certainly be pleased with the prompt relief which Chamberlain’s Liniment affords. Ob tainable everywhere. CALOMEL DYNAMITES YOUR LIVER!

Art ot Throwing Kisses. “Young men of this country do not know how to throw a Kiss gracefully,” said a college professor, “it takes a young Mexican to perform the act gracefully. “He brings the tips of his fingers to gether. touches them gently with his lips and, spreading his hand out as ho makes the throw, wafts five sweet kisses to his ladylove by five different routes.’’—Chicago Tribune. The Piano's Seven Octaves. Pianos of standard size have n key board of seven octaves and three notes —fifty-two white keys. There 1s a reason for this limit. As It is. tlie keys nt either end of the keyboard are rarely used, and tlie tones that can bow tie produced, from the lowest to tite highest. Include all that have any definite musical value to the human ear. If the compass of the keyboard were extended tbe added keys would produce sounds or noises witiiout any musical significance. It is possible for tbe human ear to perceive sounds over a range of about eleven octaves, but tbe production of musical sounds is confined to tlie seven and one-third oc taves.—Boston Herald. A Shortened Vieit. “Did tbe little girl from next door have a good time?" Inquired tbe fond mother. “I'm not sure, mamma.” said tbe wIho child.
