t EDITOR. WCDHSDH M0K5ISG, MARCH f, 1887. FROM THE STATE CAPITOL. Four hundred toil two billa have been repPtfl from cnrrimiueef in the II one up t date, aoi) something over half that number io the Senate, near ly as many more have been "read in place" and referred to appropriate committees. This week the House will commence holding two sessions daily, which means lively work. At the last meeting i.f the Legislature the two sessions a day did not begin until about April first. This does rot necessarily mean that the work is t present a full mnnth ahead of the session ol '85, but it likely will be by adjournment time; or rather the adjournment is likely to take place a month earlier than two years ago. The all absorbing topic last week was the Billingfley pipe line bill, with which oil regions are already quite familiar. The Judiciary General com rnittee, which hud the bill in charge, listened very putieutly for days to the able arguments on the merits aud de merits of thf measure, both the pro ducers and pipe line men being ably represented. The bill was reported affirmatively, with hut very slight amendments on Thursday of last week taking its place upon the calvudar as No. 104 when it will be reached in a short time. Whether or not the bill will become a law no one seems to care to predict. On Thursday the bill to repeal parts of the scalp law was up for sec ond reading, and afforded a fine op portunity for some of the rural states men to air their views on what they knew or bad learned about scalps, and eich. After a hot discussion, pro and con, the bill passed second reading, leaving nothing on the list of nbnox ios animals but wolves and wildcats. A vigorous effort was made to have foxes left on the list, but the House seemed so bent on repealing the law, that every proposition was knocked out as fast as proposed. It seemed from the eagerness with which they pouoced upon the measure when it came up that many of the members had before packing their grips for Harrisburg, solemnly promised a con tiding constituency to vote for the re peal, and were bound to keep that as one having made a promise to a dear dying friend. Oleomirgerine got a severo turning over in the House on Friday, wheie the committee on agriculture bad met to listen to arguments touchiug the respcal of the law prohibiting its sale in this state, a proposition of which kind is before the House now ; or rather, has been introduced and is in the commiiee's hands. Petitions by the cart load have been presented ask ing for its repeal, but it is quita doubt ful whether it will be doue. There are too many farmers in the House who think that the law is a good one; besides since the Supreme Court has decided its constitutionality, the dis position to leave it stand seems largely to prevail. Representative Randall has intro duced a bill, which has been favora blj. reported, "authorizing the over seers of the poor of the respective townships aud boroughs of this com monwealth to sell and dispose of the real estate of paupers, insane or oth erwisp, to borrow money upou roort . e i . . . Kgc ui pauper real estate, ana DIlUg the compensation of such overseers.' The compensation clause, which pro' vided that overse rs should receive two dollar per diem while engaged io such pei lormaiice -f duty, was strick en out by the committee. The bill is a little late in getting on the calendar being numbered S85, but being a just measure, should and doubtless will become a law. Among the other just propositions before this legislature is the one pro viding that school teachers shall have pay for attendance at county institutes and rorapelliug them to attend. This used to be the custom and was a good . thing tor both teacher and school Tha schools of our State should be the very best that law and money can make them, and the annual institute, if a duccess, is one of the best factors in elevating them that we have. And no iustitute can be entirely successful where teachers are compelled to attend without tba digbttH comptnsattoo, a t. C WKNK, is virtually the case as tbo law now stands. Let the teachers be paid tor all bis work and be will do that work with better heart and io6oite!y belter results. On Monday chief clerk Losrh,who by tho way is one of the roost popular officers on the Hill, invited the mem. mers of the Il-oife into his room where he had a pleasant surprise fir each ne, in the shape of a neat package containing a toilet outfit, consisting of a handsome comb, hair brush, whisk broom and tooth brush all of excellent quality and finish. Besides tboso articles the transcribing room wufl remembered with a box of ele gant cigars. Harrisburg. Feb. 28. 1887. The Outrage In Indiana. The Democrats ot Indiana aro play ing a desperate game, and the pro ceedings no the part of the majority in the Seuate of that state Feb. 24th were of the most revolutionary and unjustifiable character. The Supreme Court having for the seccud time de cided that it had no jurisdiction in the matter of the dispute about the lieutenant governorship, the Demo cratic majony of the Senate took the case up and the Republican who was elected to that office was not only not permitted to preside over tho Senate, but be was ejected from the hall. This is a little wnrBe, if possible, than the conduct of the Democrats in the House at Trenton. Both parties voted for candidates for lieutenant governor of Indiana at the last election to fill a vacancy, aud no question was raised by the Demo crats that an election was not necessa ry and proper until it was found that a Republican had been chosou. They then took the gruund that there was no reason for the election and that the presideut of the Senate, who was a Democrat, would be the lieutenant governor. Had the Democratic can didate for lieutenant governoi been elected he would have assumed the duties of the office , without objection on the part of anyonu in bis party. A more desperate outrage was never committed upon the people of a great state. It U subversive of law and ot tha rights of the majority, which car. never be excused and will probably never be forgotten by the people of Indiana. The Republican House has already met the issue by refusing to recognize the Senate until it recognizes the Lieu tenant Governor who was chosen by the voters of the state in accordance with the constitution. It is proba le also that the Republican senators will refuse to attcud the sessions of the body whose Democratic majority has so waotouly and wickedly over ridden ,ihe law. The Republicans were not permitted to leave the chamber from which tbo Republican Lieutenant Gov ernor had been f reibly ejected, but thoy naturally refused to take part in the proceedings. The whole proceeding is on a lino with the coarse, brutal ttctics of the Democracy in the South, aud to en graft which upon N'Ttheru politics an effort was made in Maine iu 1879, aud agaio in Ohio in 1885. The Iodiana Democrats are proving themselves apt pupils of their Southern teachers, but they are grossly mistaken if they im agine that such methods will bo toler-' ated iu the Northern states Phila Press.

It probably has some good things in it, but it is topheavy with vagueness, iu defiuiteness, and with wild eyed, long haired, socialistic ideas of one sided political bash eaters. Its outspoken, present purpose is reform ; its unspok en, and tacit object is the inauguration of the millennium, but its real intent is the defeat of the Republican party in 1888. A strip of territory lying along the northern shore of the Mediterranean Sea and extending from Marseilles, France, to Rome, Italy, a distance ot 500 miles was the scene, on the morn ing of February 23rd, of one of the most disastrous earthquakes of modem limea. The Riviera is the name by which the center of the shaken district is known. In it are situated some if the most celebrated watering places in Europe, and at this season thousands of pleasure seekers and health seekers are congregated there. Nice, Cannes, Monaco, Bordighera, Chiavari, Levau- to, Massa, Spezia, aud other places of lesser Dote, Ventimglia, Savoca, Men tone, San Reno, and Oueglia, aro in cluded in the Riviera. The loss of life in appalling, und the damage to prop erty very great. Not less than 2000 people were killed, and the number may exceed that figure greatly. The scenes of distress are raid to have been heartrending. In one instance a church fell ia aud killed 300 whom tho earthquake scare had brought there to pray. Visitors and strangers are leaving tho shaken district by thousands. The center of the disturb anee is probably the isle of Sicily, where the volcano if JEtna has been very active recently. The district now shaken has, in the past, been subject to such disturbances. Tho shock was recorded at Washington by the seis raocopo set up in the physical labora tory of the United States Signal Office at about half past seven o'clock, on the morning of February 23.

The reduction of internal revenue and th taking oil' of revenue stamps from Proprietary Medicines, no doubt has largely benefitted the consumers, as well as relieving tho burden of homo manu facturers. Especially is this the rase with Green's August Flower and Boschoe's German Syrup, as the reduction of thirty six cents per dozen, has been added to n jreaso tho size of the bottles containing' theso remedies, thereby Riving ono-fiflh moro medicine in tho 75 cent size. Tho August Flower for Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint, and tho German Svrup for Cough and Lung troubles, have" perhaps, tho lai-Kost sale of any medicines in the world.

Une ot the ndraircrs ot the Major recontly said that "at a judic iudic Major iously ripe period of life the Maji stopped growing old, and since then, like some of the choice Maderia of of which he writes with so much feel ing be has only been accumulating bo quet und flavor. "Maj. I'oore has been one of the beet known aud one of the most knowing mem in Wash ington socicety for half a century.

His bonk will not only add lustre to his fame as a writer, but is of so unique a character and so intensely interesting iu matter that it will prove a valuable contribution to the litera ture of the country.

CO, 'SC I took Athlophoros according lo direc tions; it caused a ringing in my car that was not plcnsant, it operated on my heart causing a slower and fainter throb, aud constipated my bowels. 'When tho last dose was taken I did not think much of the medicine: the next day my lameness wns better, and continued getting less until it left me. My lnmcncfs was in my back, shoulders and neck, and had been for eight months. 1 was advised to try Athlopho ros by my neighbor, Vm. Jackson, who had taken a bottle of it for a severe attack of lameness in his shoulder and firm. He said "it drove tho lanicnces right out of me; my head felt strong, and my heart nlniost stopped beating ; 1 thought I would die, but I ciimo out all right, and have not bad any lameness since." Amom Bhicop. Phelps, N. Y., August 13, 1886. I am a practicing physician ; I pre scribed Athlophoros in a case of inveterate, rheumatism of the right shoulder and arm. This case had been of weeks standing yes months and resisted medicino carefully selected, also the use of electric treatment. One bottlo removed all tho trouble.
