The wholesale mil|c dealers ol New York, having decided fo advance the rate one-eighth-'of a cent per qnart,the retailers are wondering kow tbey are to even np things with their custom¬ ers. As watering stock is limited to Wall street, this is ont of tbe question, the New Orleans Picayune maintains

Tbe Oerman army will probably eontinue to grow every year, but France bas already practically every sound man in her territory enliste.l for military service, and how can she keep up wit^ Germany in tbe size of her army if^her ^pulation does not in¬ crease? This suggests the main point of France's weakness. Her popula¬ tion Is practically stationary. In five years it has increased less than one- half of one per cent., and tbe birtb rate ia steadily decreasing.

The hailstones killed poultry and game, seriously injured cattle, out branches from trees and riddled roofs of corrugated iron.

Justice Harlan, of the Supreme Court, iu an address before the Yale Law School, stated that be believed of all documents in American history be would have preferred to have been the author of Oeorge Mason's bill of rights. This was tbe lirst in-> strument apon earth defining that principle whi<j]i underlies every free government to day—tbe separation of the three functions of government, executive, legislative and judicial. He took occasion also to express bis dis¬ approval of Americana wbo ore ashamed of their Government by saying that "there are those amonp us who affect to believe tbat no gov ernment «itbout royalty can be eu.lur- ing. Tbey affect tbe manners and ways of those tbey see abroad, and express tlisgust at the simplicity of all that is American. It would be well for them to stay permanently abroad. Tbey are Americans in name only and deserve our pity rather than uur con¬ tempt." ^^^^^^^^^^^^
A -Oarlin paper prints some facts re¬ garding electrio railways in Europe, which suggests to the San Francisco Chronicle that the people in tbe Old World are slow to take up a good thing. According to this paper, Ger. many has 25'2 miles of electrio rail¬ way, France 82 miles. Great Britain and Ireland 66) miles, Austria-Hun¬ gary ii milea. Switzerland 29 miles and Italy 24 { miles. Servia, Russia, Belgium and Spain have but from !>{ miles to 18) miles each. Contrasted with the 12,000 milea ot electrio rail¬ way operated in the United States tbis is a very sorry showing, and the dis¬ parity is emphasixed when it is stated tbat Euroiieau countries ar» almost as dr>lii'ient iu other methu.ls of get¬ tiug about as they are in electric rail¬ ways. Tba United States may learn aome things from the people of Eu¬ rope, but the latter might derive some exoellent pointers trnm us un the sub¬ ject of moving pattseugers iu big cities.    	
The statistics of accidents furnished by some of the inniirance ooiupaniex disclose some i.d.l facts. Out of 4000 giveu acci.leuts ti81 were caused by falling on the pavement, while tlU were frum nlippiug .l..wu Maire, witb 1.17 due to misc«lUue.iUK causes, mak¬ ing a total of ilMl. .\cci.lento from riding in carriaKea and wagons are given at 421, which is ..losely foll.<»e.l by that new form ..f acci.Ient on the bicy.'le, canning up to 41.1. It is shown that 'idi persons were cut with edged t.H.ln, while 1\>5 suffered from tho falling of heavy olije.-ts. Kick ing horses were the cause ol 134, while nothing ia said al>.>ut mulea, probably b^caUMi the mule dues not exi.t in the secti.m i>f coun try from which these fignres m-rre oullate.1. The whirring uf intricate machinery, from which one woul.l ex- pact an immense naml>er uf a^vidents to occur, really has hat a small per¬ centage to its credit, being .>nly IDT— seventy-two eyes were hurt, aiity-nine finger. crushe.!, fifly-flve people st«|>pe<l on nails iu their stockings, and. siugnlar to relate, oat of 4000 oc- cidenia only forty-three were doe to railroads.

VE come to ask you    for    the hand    of    your daughter," sai.l young Hromley, Htniublingtothe aeat offered bim b y    tbe   girl's father. "Whi.'hone?" '4>!i^r'jaaf\t-     asked old Diiu- O^IMvW uioi-k,   the  coal
" merchant,    lay¬
ing down the newapaper whii'h be had been reading, and eyeing the young man curiously.
".Sometimes I think it is Mollie, and again I am sure it ia Millie," re¬ plied young Bromley, genuinely per¬ plexed.
The old coal merchant looke.l sym¬ pathetic.
"You can't have both," sai.l he, after an awkward pause.
"They're splendid girls, goo.l enough for anybody!" cxcliiimcd tbe yuuug man.
"Well, I rother think!" said the old mau, proudly.
"I coufd be hajipy with either of tbem," weut on young Br.imley.
"I'm disposed l.i think," observed qU} Dimmock, "Ihat you have been happy with both ..f tbem."
".So they've told nie more than once," sai.l Bromley, with the pleasant light of recollection in bin eyes.
"Well, can't you make np your mind which girl you waul to uiarry'i'"
The old coal nierchont looked at the yonng man with the fresh color aud the loyal blue eyes us if he would liko to have hini for a H.iii-iii-luw.
Young Hromley did not answer for a moment, an.l then he said slowly: "Wlii.'li do yon think souuiIh the bel¬ ter—'Millie Hromley' or 'Mollie Bromley?' Sometimes I've lookcil at it in that way."
"I iliui't think there's much to choose," relume.1 the old coul iiier- chanl, weighing Ihe iiuestioii wilh every desire to be fair.
"You know," I'outiuued the young man, "there have been times when I've gone to bed perfeclly chariiie.l with the name 'Millie Bromley,' and in the morning 'Mollie Bromley' lias caught my faiicv. Millie, Molli..; Mollie, Millie—it's  au uwful puzzle."
"Of courae, you've pnipoaeil l.i ouo of the girla'i'" iu.|uireil their father.
"Oh, yes, iu.leed," said young Bromley.
"Then that is tho girl yon want to marry," ex.'luiiii.il the ol.l man, triuiuphaiilly. "Why, it'a simple enough after nil. You've taken <iuile a load off my mind. Wliich oue was it?'
"It was Millie—I think," anawere.l young Hromley,  hesilatingly.
"Think!    lion'l you know'/"
The young man Hushed, un.l lo.ike.l reproaidifully at tin- cal luervhant.
"Mr. Diiiimock," suid be, "I'll put it t.) v.'U as man to man: Which is Millie'and whi.'h is Mollie?"
"Don't ci'.iHs-exaiuiue lue, air," re¬ joined Iho ol.l man "Ify.iH want t.i marry une of Ihe girls, it'a your buai- ness to Dud out."
"Heaven knows," crio.l young Br.iin- ley in anguish, "1 want t.i marry eith¬ er Millie or Mollie, and have hor all to myself. Tta Irving enough for a fellow to 1h> over head an.l oars in l.ive with one girl, but when tli..re are tw.. uf them it's more tbau Hesb uml 1.1.Hid can stan.l."
"There, there, my Ix.y," sai.l Ihe old coal merchant Ho.itliinj^ly, "don't take on s.i. Either girl ia yours « itb ' my lilensihg, but I want Ui koej) one for myself Let uie soe i( I can li.'ip ! y.iu. " Aud going to the open Kreu.-li win.low he calle.1:
"Millie, M.illie!    Mollie, Millie'"
"Yea, papa, we're r.iuiiiig," sounde.l two sweet, well-bred voices from the Shruhbory.
There was a tri;]i|>ing of light feel along the St..lie walk un.ler tbo graiie vine, aud Millie au.l M.illie bl.».nio.| into the r.>oni.

The young man blushed furiously anil lift«il his hands in protest.
"I'm sure. " he stammered, "one of ymi ia mistaken. I aske.l you, Millie, to be my wife in the summer house— and—an.l—I kissed you. That waa before supper, and later ili the eveu¬ ing, when we aat on tho front slops, I aaid thot I couldn't live without you and that we must get married.
"Before we go any further," inter¬ rupted the old coal merchant, "whioh ia Millie and wbich ia Mollie? When yonr dear mother waa alive ahe cor.ld tell Ihe difference sometimes, but I dou't know to thia day."
"Oh, how dull you are, papa!" said the girls in duet.
"I thiak that ia Millieon the right," flix.ke up young Hromley.
"Whv, Mr. Bromley," said she, "I om M..nie."
"Very gixiil, uow let's g.» on," sai.l their fother, "where wero we? Oh, yea, young Hromley aays thnt he asked you to be hia wife, Millie, an.l de¬ clared he couldn't do without you. "
"I beg your par.loii, pajio," aai.I Mollie, "he tol.l me that ho couldn't live without me"
"Well, let's get our bearings," con¬ tinued the old coal merchont. "Brom¬ ley, you aakeil Millie to marry you down in the anmmer house, and you kissed her!     That's .'orrect,  isn't it?"
"There'a no doubt obout that, sir," said Bromley eagerly.
".\nd after supper when you snt together on the stoop you told Mollie that you couldn't live without hor?" |i."'rhot I deny, sir. Oh! I bey your pardou, Mollie, you neeiln't look so ongry.     I meant no offence."
"IJid yon kiss Mollie?" went on tho old man relentlessly.
"No, sir.     I—".
"Yes, you did, Mr. Bromley," flared up Mollie.
"I admit," said tbe yonng man, struggling with hia emotions, "thnt I kissed her when I sai.l I coul.l not live wilhout hor, but it wosu't Mollie."
"Oh, Mollie!" said Millie, "how could you?"
"Now, Millie, do be reasonable," said Mollie.
Old Mr. Diminnck looked mystified.
"It aeems to me," I said, with a show uf impatience, "that if I ware in love with one of those girls I could tell the difference between them. So far as I can make out, young man, you have asked Millie to be yuur wife, aud have trie.l to make Mollie believe that yon could not live without her. Now, to any one who does not know Millie aud Mollie your condui-t w.iuld ap¬ pear to be perlidious. Of course, as lietweeu you and Mollie, I must lie- lieve Mollie, for the girl certainly knows whether yon kisne.l her."
The old man eyed buth his daugh- tora hard. Millie was biting lier iiother lip uud ao was Mollie; but Mol¬ lie was trying to keep   from laughing.
Old Mr. Uiiumock had an idea.
"I would like to clear up this thing lo your satisfaction and my own, Bromley," said he. "Let me ask you whether Mollie kissed you when you lold her jruu oouldu't live witbout her?"
The young man got very red: in the face.
"You ineon Millie, of course," he replied, with embarrassment. "Per¬ haps ahe woul.ln't mind my siiying that she did kiss me in the snmuier house. Hut ahe ilidu't kiss me un the stoop.    I kissed her,"
"How ia thai, Millie? Mollie?" asked their father.
"Papn," said Mollie decidedly. "I couldn't keep Mr. Hromley from kiss¬ ing me, but I assure y.m I didn't kiss him."
Midlie looked her father straight in the eye an.l then she shot on indignant shaft lit Hroiuloy.
Millie hung her head and her face was as red as a )ioppy.
"I think," suid the old ninu dryly, "Ihat it's plain I'll keep Mollie, and we'll have that marriage before you make another mistake, yuuug man,"— Now Y'ork .Sun.

Porpolsff Capture  Bancher'e Ho|r*
Ole Iveraou, a rancher living on Mc- .N'eilli laland, t started from Tacoma, Wash., for homo in a skiff. Hia only carg.i was a .|narter of a hog that hi' intended to salt down for batching wheu the long tlityH of winter cume.

When liurea<'he.l iiiid-chuuiiol the school, numbering about l.'jil, began to cl.ise in ou him and tw.iof the biggest ones workeil up close ul.ingside Ihe skiff.
Iveraou by this time was pretty well si.are.l an.l bout to his oars like ogood si.ufuriiig Swede. But the fleet-toiled sea jiiga were too swift for him. Aa ho drew opposite the V'nite.l Stalea Poiiiteiiliary one of the Iwo big lead¬ ers shot out of wale/ into Ivors.m'a frail craft, knocking the rancher over lioord, breaking one of his riba and upsetting tbe skiff.

The rest of tho school atarte.l t.i ram him as one porpoise, an.l f.ir an instant there was a iniuia- ture inaelstr.mi, with Ivors..ii ami the big porpoise os a atorni ciitre.
