lanfa, was the little town of Mllledge
Vilie, which few persons have heard of
Since their schooldays, when knowl
edge of state capitals and the streams
tu which they were nearest were re
garded us among the elements of learning-
originally the' capital of Nebraskn
was oiuahu. but It is now Lincoln. Car
son City has superseded Virginia City
as the capital of Nevada, and Charles
ton has superseded Wheeling as the
capital of West Virginia. For a con
siderable time it was the custom in
New Knglund, such were the rivalries
between some old established cities, for
even the smallest states to maintain
two capitals, and the sessions of the
legislature were held In them alternate
ly. Connecticut, small in area, had two
capitals Hurtford-and New Haven, and
Rhode Island, still smaller, had five
capitals at one time. Now Hartford .
the only capital of Connecticut, but
Rhode Island adheres to two. Some of
the new states have not retained the
capitals they bail when territories. The
capital of Dakota as u territory was
Yangton, which Is jiow the second
largest city in South Dakota, but not
the capltul. Pierre, a" smaller place,
having superseded it. - Blsinuick is the
capital of North Dakota.
New York stute hus had some experi
ence In capitals. The seat of govern
ment 'during the colonial period was the
city of New York. The legislature held
Its sessions at the fort on the Battery
during the early portion of the period,
and subsequently met fit the City Hall.
Occassionally sessions were held at Ja
maica. Ntnv York was nominally tho
capital during the Revolution, but the
occupancy of the city by the royal
troops compelled the legislature to meet
at Poughkeepsle, Kingston and Albany.
After the evacuation, sessions of the
legislature were held at these places or
in New York. The legislature hus met
continuously In Albany since 17S.
What fixes with greater permanence
than anything else the retention at a
certain place of a capital is the estab
lishment of capital buildings, entailing
usuallly very large expense and appeal
ing to the aesthetic laste of some of the
inhabitants and to the pecuniary recol
lection or a still larger number of per
sons by reason of the fact that theso
buildings are usually constructed from
the proceeds of tuxutlou, and those who
contribute any share of this are ready
to oppose any Innovation in the way of
a new capital.

The truin boy was passing along with
a stuck of comic liteiuttire. The kind

the boy stopped, says tile Detroit Free
Press.
"Haven't you anything except funny
literature?" he usked.
"Not this trip," was Hie unswer.
"Don't you like to luugh?' 1
"Very much, Indeed. But I'm afraid
my mind is of too practical a turn to
develop what you might call a delicut
responsiveness of humor."
"You want facts?"
"I'm afraid so. When T .wus a young
man and went courting the young ludy
never ordered more dinner than I could
puy for; neither did she. use the palpa
ble subterfuge to get me Into the vi
cinity of an ice cream parlor. Although
I was not enjoying a large Income her
father never threatened to kick in
down the front doorstep, nor did he keep
a bulldog where he would be likely to
bite me. My mother-in-law Is a most
estimable lady, whose presence In our
household has always been a joy, and
never In my life have I been obliged to
get In the night ami walk the floor with
a crying baby. These circumstances
have had a tendency to make me dis
trust the accuracy of humorists, there
by, no doubt, materially lessening my
appreciation of their efforts."
The train boy looked at him pityingly
and said:
"No. There ain't no use o' you're
