The women of Chicago who inaugura-1
ted the crusade against gambling some
time ago, are very enthusiastic over the
success that has attended their work.
They are conndent that they can effectually
suppress the vice.

. "The number of Irish occupiers of land
In 1SSS was 021.455, being 716 less
;han on the "previous year. The number
folding land exceeding fifty acres increased
to 223. There were in 1SSS
'47,951 holdings, not escreuing one acre,
oeing a decrease of 171 from the previous
vear. There arc 150.146 holding
between five aud fifteen acres, this being
;he most numerous class, and 1501 holders
of above 1000 acres.
The difference between the English J
and the American sense of humor is shown
in Henry Irving's application for the interdiction
of a burlesque imitation of him
which was running in one of the London
theaters. On this side of the water almost
unv actor of note would regard this
i?1- ni * Tvri?ft"i- <ro<Ki rid vertfsement. to be en
^ - '
^ couraged rather than rebuffed. Booth,
- Jefferson, and others v.-Iio have suffered ,
4$lzC in like manner at the hands of the funny
i- ty men on the stage have winked at it, as
} J the political magnates of a quarter-cen*
rury ago did when a noted performer
produced his clever stage portraits of
~ them. The W;u>hingtou Star thinks
L 'there iS always more or less indirect
flattery in such treatment. Nobody
thinks of caricaturing a person who is
cot eminent in his way. The comic delineator-hunts
only i'or big game." '

they thought w.a.-; golden eagles ac^js fhe
fc-males.of the coi-^g,two-year-old .maie
of the bald eagle iViHiiy-. The reason a
bald eagle is called a bald eagle is because
of a whitd crest with which the male
is ornamented. But, he don:t get
that crest tmtil he is ];.u>t* tvvc years, old.'
The golden eagle'.looks very much like
the bald eagle without the crest.' Con
sequenny, ioiks who ;t?u i up m cagica,
as- Vermillion County people are, think
they have had the pleasure of seeing
specimens of the rare golden eagle,.whenall
they've seen was cither some old bald . ':
eagle'swife or "his young son. . ;
"There's a farm in Vermilion County ^
where there is a regular bald eagle assembly,
and it has been there as long as any
one on remember anything about that
part of the State. The eugk-s hold a convention
there every night, andJProfgssor
Collett says that the eagles that meet
there come from. dil?erent parts of the . ;
State for fifty or a hundred mites.around.
They come in the dusk of. the evening,1
and seem to meet for some consultation ^
of importance, rather-than to have a
