The city government of Haverhill, Massachusetts, population 30,000, has formally petitioned the legislature to amend the city's charter so that it may . apply the Swiss initiative and referen dum system to local legislation. As , Haverhill is the first city in this country which is about to adopt the system, and . as the republican and democratic parties of Massachusetts have endorsed the system as a promising method of reform ing municipal government, the pioneer experiment in this line will attract attention. . The Haverhill plan provides that all ordinances passed by the council shall be classified as "urgent" and "non urgent." The urgent ordinances are those referring to public health and . peace and those which appropriate funds in any department greater than the average suni appropriated for the pre ceding three years in that department. Such measures do not fall within the operation of the referendum and take effect at once. ' '. All other ordinances are "non-urgent," and become operative in thirty days, unless, in the meantime, a peti tion, signed by fifteen per cent, of the voters of the city who voted at the preceding annual election shall be filed with the city clerk, asking for the submission of the measure to a pop ular vote for adoption or rejection. If adopted it is thereafter a municipal law. The Australian voting system is in nse in Massachusetts, and, the title of the proposed measure will be inserted in the official ballot. The mayor cannot veto a measure thus submitted, and he is .thus shorn of an ancient prerogative. XordJRoeebery felt compelled to ex-1 plain in a speech at Edinburg recently that he had by no means abandoned home rule for Ireland. He says in sub stance that self-government for Ireland is achievable even without an English, 'majority in parliament if the Irish party -remain true to the liberal cause. But the young earl does not make any prom ise that home rule will be made a vital question during his period of office. Congressman Breckinridge should try the insanity plea. It is not very manly to plead that Miss Pollard is the case of bis downfall.' He was both old and smart enough to be censor over his own .actions. The Tacoma Union 'says: "When a man 50 years of age, a member of congress, a silver-tongued orator and the husband of a second wife, can suc cessfully plead in self-justification that a school girl seduced him, and for years held him in illicit relations, what can be done in the prosecution of young, every-day fellows on charges of seduc tion?" The paseion-play is represented in Boston by marionettes. These figures " are about the size and height of a 11-year-old child. The words of ihe male characters are all spoken by the operator, and his daughter gives the women's voices. It may be supposed that the effect would be sacrilege, but a cultured woman who has seen the performance, but is not a linguist, said : "I did not understand one word that I heard, but I could not keep the tears back the voice was so burdened with sorrow. .' I never ' saw anything more impressive. - To me they were not figures, but my imagina tion was alive with the realistic scene. A more solemn hour and a half I hnve . never passed.". There are many reasons why Speaker Crisp does not care to wear a senatorial toga in place of the simple tunic of the bouse. He believes himself, and his colleagues believe- him to be the best ringmaster of their number, and cer tainly the clamorous session of Thurs day, where he refused to entertain an appeal, refused to state, his reason for not doing so, refused to recognize the rules requiring two -tellers, and even re fusing to put a motion to adjourn, stamp bim aa a bulldozer of the most approved pattern. But outside of these services there is a pecuniary difference of $5,000 a year on the wrong side of the ledger if Crisp accepted the honor conferred upon bim by Gov. Northern. And as he is good for many years in the house at $10,000 a year it would be foolish, from a financial point of view to take the gift of an unexpired term of senatorshlp. - Poison the squirrels.

"Mpn try in every way possible," said a prominent bank presiuent- re cently, "to "obtain the signatures of New i ork bankers. ' . "Their object is evidently to use them in committiner forjreries. At least we suspect so, and for that rea- son try to be as careful a3 possible in sijrnimr letters.' "In this bank we have many letters from the west of such a trivial nature that we suspect an ulterior motive up on the part of the "writers, and if we answer them at all do so by typewriter, even to the signature. 1 '. "One forger or counterfeiter in Indi ana is exceedingly systematic and per sistent in his efforts to obtain t-ie sig- natures of our officers. As regularly as the year comes around "he writes, inclosing a ten dollar bill, and re quests us to send him one of our new ten dollar national bank notes in ex change. ' , "He always gives the same reason for the request that he wants it for 'his collection.' Of course that is non sense. We believe that he wants a new bill so that he may discover if we have changed our officers and get their signatures.- "He never does get them, though, We always return this bill, with a typewritten letter on paper1 contain ing no names, excusing, ourselves on the ground that we have no circulation outstanding." A Little Daughter Of a Church of England minister cured of a distressing; rash, by Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Mr. Kichard Biiiks, the well-known Druggist, 207 McGill st., Montreal, P. Q., says: . I have sold Ayer's Family Medicines for 40 years, and have heard nothing but good said of them. I know of many. Wonderful Cures performed by Ayer's Sarsaparilla, one in particular being that of a little daughter of a Church of England minis ter. The child was literally covered from head to foot with a red and ex ceedingly troublesome rash, from which she had suffered for two or three years, in spite of the best medical treatment available. Her father was in great distress about the case, and, at my recommendation, at last began to ad minister Ayer's Sarsaparilla, two bot tles of which effected a complete cure, much to her relief and her father's delight. I am sure, were he here to-day, lie would testify in the strongest terms as to the merits of . Ayer's Sarsaparilla Prepared by Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., Lowell, Mass.

A Sheriff Who You!d Not Let a Railroad Law Bother Him- . .A ludicrous row over the separate coach law occurred on' the Cincinnati Southern road recently. ' Sheriff Kob erts,.of Boone county, had a white and colored prisoner, destined for the penitentiary- in this city, and took them both in the colored coach. The con ductor, evidently ' not informed that nurses and prisoners are exempt from the provisions of the law, insisted that the sheriff should- leave the colored car and,take his white prisoner with him, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. The 6herifE refused to separate them, but took both to the white car. The conductor then told him he would have to place his colored prisoner . in the proper car, and the sheriff replied he would not do' it, and if put off would sue the' company. The row became threatening, and the sheriff. , in order to avoid trouble, went back into the colored car when the train stopped, and when again seen by the conductor Igpf back into the White car. In this way they quarreled over the whole route to Georgetown, but the ' sheriff landed his prisoners in the peniten tiary securely locked together. When Baby was sick, we gave her Castoria.
