The member of the House have agreed to meet Governor Hastings and will accept his proposition that the total cost is not to exceed 4550.000. Now that the capitol question is practically settled it is hoped the members of the Legislature will at onco get to work. Shknandoaii seems to bo as strongly in favor of the appointmont of John P.

The Republican Club of town has passed resolutions favoring his candidacy, and this has been further strengthened by members of the Ilorough Council and othor borough officials signing petitions asking for his appointment. Truly the Major is riding a noble and fast charger in his flight through the enemy's ranks. It is almost impossible for the wage worker to accumulate property ill boasted cheap times, for the cheapness is generally the product of idle days and dwindled wage re ceipts. In depressed tlwes individual home getting comes almost to r standstill, and those who have earned homes during brighter periods are forced to mortgage them for living expenses, This.it will be seen, is a double loss, namely, loss of income sufficient to have almost purchased another piece oi property, and loss by reason of sacrificing part of thatalreadyiobtalned. Tho only time a thrifty wotker oau save is wheu work is plenty and consequently merchandise and property are commanding prices that contain reasonable profits. The greatest disappointment which thr enemies of the Republican party have met with in attempting to analyze Ibe Dingley bill is the fart that they are not able to scream, "Sugar Trust !" They remeiubei painfully the scandal which attached to the piisfcHuc of the Wilson law, through which the sugar trust benefited enormously, and bad hoped that the publication of the Uiugley bill would furnish them basis for the ery, "You're another," but the most in geuioua and unscrupulous effort to charge friendship for the sugar trust upon the Diugley bill fails utterly. On tho contrary, those most familiar with the subject assert that the measure Is not only free from suspicion of this character, but will result adversely to trusts and combinations which have flourished under thr Wilson law. Tub decision of the United States Supreme L'jurt in its interpretation of the Interstate Commerce law, in the case against the Tram Missouri Freight Asociatioii, will iu its appli cation to other joint traffic associations and freight pools, very seriously affect railroad property aud profits.

The court of appeals at Frankfort yesterday decided that the banks of the state must be taxed under the ad valorem system, thus reversing a decision rendered something over a year ago. This de cision comes as blow to the banking Institutions of the state, which have been taxed tinder the Hewitt bill, pass ed in 1RS6, and provided for the pay ment of 76 cents on each $100 worth of capital stock. Under the ad valorem system they must pay the regular tax rate not only on their capital stock, but on all the property they may have In their possession. lafe In Olden Kngtatid. In his youth Augustus J. O. Hare ltvatl with his adopted parents at a rec tor iu Shropshire, and of the life there be gives some picturesque details in the story of lii's life: Wheu thee was "a wash" at Stoke, whloh wm about every three weeks, it was a rule with grauuy that, summer or winter, it must always begin at 1 n. m. At that hour oldllnuuah Berry used to nrrivo from the village, tho coppers were heated and the maids at work. Tho ladies' maids, who wore expected to do all tlio flue muslins, etc. , themselves, had nlso always to be nt the washtube nt 8 a. m. by candlelight. If any ono was lute, the housekeeper reported to Mrs. Leycester, who was soon down upon them pretty sharply. Generally, howover, her roal practical kindness and generosity prevented nny ono minding Mrs. Leycester's severity. It waa looked upon as only "her way," for people wore not bo tender in those days ns they are now, and certainly no servants would have thought of giving up a place wliioh was essentially a good one because thoj woro a little roughly handled by their mistress. In those days servants were as liable to personal chastisement as the children of the house and would as little thought of resenting it. "You don't suppose I'm going to hurt my hand box ing your ears," said granny when about to chastise tho school children she was teaching, and'sho would take up a book from the table and use it soundly, aud then say. "Now we mustn't let the oth er onr be jealous," and turn the child round and lay on again on the other side. Granny constantly boxed her housemaids' ears, and, nlas, when lie grew very old, she used to box dear grandpapa's, though she loved him dear ly, tho great source of offense being that lie would sometimes slyly give the serv ant's elbow u tip when his daily tuble upooufnl of brandy was being poured out.
