While many features of the th- new rules are obnoxious to the Dem o-Tats, it is not probable that opposition ill be n anifeateil otherwise than by speeches and by adverse votes on them, provi ltd the minority is afforded what ihev regard as a reasonable time for dis cussion.

The early map used by Prof. Hors ford are partly French, and this, with the remarkable dlsplayf maps at the Paris Exposition, and the great work undertaken by the French bookseller, Hatcbette, lead, ma to say a word about map-making, or "cartography," as the Fronoh call it The age of Louis XIV., which produced so muoh else, gave an Impulse to map-making, and early In the last century, the great atlas of D'Auvlllo, which was forty years in making, was the ancestor of innumera ble maps since published. France also, under the Bourbons, made tbe first Im portant topographical survey, under tbe lead ot Caslna do Floury, who was en-, gaged on It from 17& to 1783,'and his maps were used by Napoleon and Wel lington In tholr campaigns. In our century, however, geographical science snd art under Uumbolt, who studied in Parts, and Rltter have migrated to Germany with other branches of learning. The great pub lisher, Porthes, at Ootha, employing men like Stlelor, Sydow, Spruner aad Peterman, and the rival Berlin pub lisher, Klepert, have for fifty years held sway In map-making Haohette, In the days of the Second Napoloon, undertook to break down the German monopoly in this art and to restore France to her former eminence in it, and this Paris publisher employed Vivien de St. Mar tin to edit his new atlas, which is now coming out in monthly numbers, be ginning with 1887. A still larger atlas, begun In 1887, is waiting to follow. Vivien de St. Martin died before much had been issued, and he bad been suo- eaeded by V. Schracder. The prepara tory work is done and the publication will soon begin again. A single map will occupy an engraver a year or two. In the smallest atlas, maps of Switzer land, the British Isles snd the Russian Empire are published, and appear to be bettor than the best former maps those of Stlolor, the German. Compared with work like this, the new atlas of Middle sex County seems rather orude and inac curate, but the maps are on a large scale, and in the villages every man's house is put down with the owner's name.

A couple who appeared to have walked a long dtstanoe over a country highway, and to be man and wife, were wrangling on the north portico of the City Hall yesterday, when a policeman approached and asked what was the matter. ''She's kicking up a rumpus," replied the man. "No, I hain't, either. He wants to flunk on his bargain," she protested. "Well, what Is it?" "Why, we've been married about a year," said tho man, "and we don't got along together. I said we'd better di vorce, and she said she'd take five dol lars and lot me go." "Soven, Jim I said seven." "You said five." "Where wore you going to get a di vorce?" askod the officer. "In here. That's what we came for, Boon's we git it I'm going to Canada." "I said seven dollars, Jim," put In the wife. "You said flvol" "Seven!" "Flvol" "Sovon dollars or I won't sign!" "You've gutter fur five!" Tho officer proceeded to enlighten the couple a little on the dWorce question, and whon he was through the husband saitl: "If I can't get a divorce then I'll ab duct myself." "Then I'll abduot after you!" she re plied, and as be started down the street she trotted along at bis hools and was prepared for any dodge he might make. Detroit F'ree Press. FEMININE TENDERNESS.
