Kaneaa City Journal. . - Time Limit of Speeches. Two hundred or so new membere in the French chamber ct deputies areup in arms against the sea of elo quence among' their elders.,. Their chief reason Beems to be that they have not yet got in a word edgeways since the day they were returned, and not one of them has yet succeeded in firing off his maiden speech. One of them, therefore, proposed a time Jtimlt for speeches, -such as 'exists ir some parliaments .of the7 old world. He is generous enough, however, six times more so, indeed, than the fram ers of rules at some labor congresses. He proposes to allow, not ten, but p maximum of sixty minutes to every speaker per day. This seems a fairly wide margin. Still, it might prove an irksome restraint upon some mem bers, like - M.: 3aures, "for ' instance. 'Some one has calculated that he holds the record for pacific eloquence in the new parliament. "The speeches made by him from last June to a few days. ago reach, a total of fifty-three and a half columns of the official reports, Tor over SQJHQO words.'. - - ' ; " Rome's Queer School. -i.'- -A school of ah entirely novel type "has recently been started at Rome, says a writer in the Wide World Magazine, ahdhas already given very good results. This "open-air" acad emy differs from the German open-air schools, inasmuch as it is essentially traveling, whereas the school at Char Jottenburg, for instance, is composed of a number of pavilions. The com "bined satchel and desk carried by the pupil only weighs ten pounds, and therefore no fatigue is caused through carrying this on the back. The pu .pils, together with their master, wan der from one part of the outlying 'country districts of, Rome to another. The desk is placed on the ground, the blackboard' is fixed up and the lesson begins. It is very practical, and the pupils are able to do 'their lessons in any place, as -they carry with them all that is required. It is held in Rome that this form of Instruction will do 'much toward doing away with . the large number of illiterate persons in the vicinity. A Darky Dialogue. In a Southern town one morning a colored man called upon a neighbor. He was met at - the door by his friend's wife, and the dialogue ran something like this: "Kinder cold dis mawnin'." . "Kinder. Think mebbe it's gwine to. rain." -Mabbe it is. Is Dan in?" "Shore; he's in." m "Kin I see him?" No, sirree!" '"But I wants to see him bad." Ts sorry, but you can't see him. "Dan's dead," "Go 'way!
