Immigration Bill Tetood by President Cleveland. WASHINGTON, March 3.—The crowded senate galleries bore evidence today Of the near approach of inauguration. Before going on with appropriation bills, a num- ber of other measures were considered. Mr. Elkins (Rep, W. Va.) secured the passage of the senate joint resolution re- citing the alarming spread of the bubonic plague, now prevalent in India, and di- recting the secretary of the treasury to establish such national quarantine regula- tions as may become necessary'to prevent the introduction and spread of infectious or contagious diseases. The resolution pro- vides for the appointment of inspectors by the secretary of the treasury on the advice ' of the surgeon general of the marine hos- pital service and for the inspection of ves- sels, persons, etc, pending the existence of the emergency. , Mr. Quay (Bop, Pa.) secured consent to his being relieved from the obligations of secrecy of executive session in regard to certain Pennsylvania postmasters, and then stated that several of these nomina- tions had been erroneously given to the press last night as confirmed, when, in fact, they were still subject to objection. A resolution was agreed to requesting the state department for any further corre- spondence received relative to the arrest of Victor McCord of Pennsylvania at Are- quipa, Peru. At the request of Mr. Ch‘an- dler it was agreed to proceed at 1 o’clock with the bill for an international monetary conference. The senator stated in answor to inquiries that he did not anticipate serious opposition ,to the house amend- ments. Among the memorials presented was one from the legislature of Pennsylvania relative to the arrest of Sylvester Scovel in Cuba. . The fortification appropriation bill was then taken up. Mr. Cullom (Rep, Ills.) gavo notice that after the fortification bill was dis- posed of he would move to take up the house bill known as the anti ticket scalping bill. N 0 measure, he said, other than the appropriation bills was more important to the public than this. Mr. Allen (Pop, Neb.) remarked that this was far too im- portant a measure to hurry through at this time. On request of Mr. Platt (Rep., Conn. ), an agreement was reached that after the disposal of the two remaining appropria- tion bills—fortifications and deficiency— unobjected house bills on the calendar would be considered. A Discussion of Bond Sales. A statement by Mr. Vest relative to the inquiry into bond issues was called out by Mr. Pefier’sefiort to passaresolution call- ing for a report of the inquiry. Mr. Vest said a. subcommittee of the finance committee had conducted its inves- tigations at Washington and New York. At the latter place, when the subcommittee put the question to Mr. Morgan and Mr. Belmont as to the profit and as to the per- sons to whom bonds were sold, they abso- lutely refused to answer these questions. All other points of the inquiry had been fully answered. The subcommittee re- ported tO the full finance, committee the refusal of Messrs. Belmont and Morgan to answer these questions, but the finance committee had never acted on the report. “Why were not these witnesses reported to the senate and arraigned for contempt of the senate?” asked Mr. Allen. Mr. Vest explained that this power re- ferred only to contempts in the District of Columbia, not in New York. and other places. The subcommittee was divided in opinion in this inquiry, some members favoring bringing Naufork witnesses to Washington, others opposing it. Mr. Hill said he had opposed the inves- tigation from the first, knowing it was sure to result in a mere farce. It had been a fishing investigation from beginning to and. Not a scintilla of evidence had been secured casting suspicion on the bond sales and on the questions of individual profits, and inquiry had been cut off by the estab- lished rule of law protecting individuals from inquiry into their private affairs. Mr. Stewart criticised the bond sales, and after further discussion the matter went over without action. The senate then came back to the forti- fications bill. Mr. Hewley (Rep, Conn.) took occasion to point out that while the government was making splendid provision for heavy guns, etc., yet the condition of the army was such that there was not a force capa- ble of arming the guns. There were no artillerymen trained in the use of these modern steel guns. Inquiry would show the lamentable condition we are in throfigh the failure to enact proper legis- lation. It would disclose that we were open to attack at 10 or 20 places. The fortifications bill was then passed, its consideration having taken loss than half an hour. The deficiency appropriation bill, the, last on the list, and the international monetary conference bill were taken up and led to heated criticism by Mr. Dubols (Ida) and Mr. Cannon (Utah). The senate concurred in the house amendments on the international mone- tary conference bill. This is the last leg- islative stage, and the bill now goes to the president. In the House. The house was prepared for a. long and hard day’s work when it met today after the recess taken yesterday. The indica- tions were that the session would last far into the night. Even at this early hour the rotunda and corridors of the capitol were throngcd with sightseers, and the galleries were crowded to repletion. The traditional and long standingrjealousy be- tween the house and senate was the cause of a. resolution which Mr. Dockery (Dem., Mo.) introduced at the opening of the ses- sion asking for an inquiry into the reason why past precedents had been ignored in the location of the platform upon the eastern terrace of the capitol, where Mr. McKinley will.be inaugurated, entirely in front of the senate wing. Heretofore the plat-form has been built from the main en- trance, and neither house had cause to feel slightcd. This year some of the members feel that the senators are seeking to monopolize this great ceremony, and the resolution was the outcome of this dissatisfaction. Under the rules it was referred to the committee. Mr. Richardson (Dem., Tenn.) made a pertinent inquiry when he suggested an amendment to extend the inquiry so as to -miscellaneous, $47,639. ascertain what authority existed for the erection of a. plat.orm anywhere on the plaza. The house waited about half-an hour for the appearance of conference reports. The District of Columbia and naval appropria— tion hills, which came over from the sen- ate, were sent to conference.’ ' Mr. Hopkins (Rep, Ills.) tried to get a separate vote on the senate proposition to fix the price of armor plate at $300 per ton. He wanted th!' ,3 amendment concurred in. He said the illinois Steel company was prepared to furnish the government with armor plate for which we were paying $560 per ton for $240. _ “Is that company responsible?” asked Mr. Milnes (Rep, Mich. ). ‘ “_It has a capital stock of $40,000,000,” replied Mr. Hopkins, “and has in it such men as Marshall Field, Rockefeller, Pull- man and Armour. It is one of the stron- gest companies in the United States.” The Old and the New. WASHINGTON, March . 3.—-Mr. _ James Wilson, the next secretary of agriculture, called on Mr. Morton, the outgoing secre- tary, at the department today. They talked over the work of the office, Mr. Morton ex. plaining the details of the routine duties of the head of the agricultural department. The new secretary is expected to take charge Saturday. In Favor of San Pedro. WASHINGTON, March 3.—The Californizf deep water harbor commission submitted its report today to the secretary of war. It is in favor of San Pedro as the harbor on which the ‘government appropriation shall be expended. Commissioner Morgan does not sign the report. Immigration Bill Vetoed. WASHINGTON, March 3,—The president has vetoed the Lodge immigration bill, which provided that immigrants before admission to the United States should prove their ability to read in one language. One Day’s Government Recelpts. ' WASHINGTON, March 3.—National bank notes received today for redemption, $367,- 214; government receipts from internal revenue, _ $280,649; customs, $559,557; Gray Again Declines. WASHINGTON, March 3.-—The president sent for Senator Gray today and. again tenderd him the appointment of district judge for Delaware, and the senator again declined to accept. ‘ WEYLBR’S RAGE Is RUN. His Action Regarding Americans Causes Great Annoyance In Madrid. LONDON, March 3.—A dispatch from Madrid to The Central News says that. in the face of the general condemnation by the press of the pardon of Julio Sanguilly, the Cuban leader, the government news‘ papers say that they have authority for the declaration that the queen regent in signing the document for his release sim- ply fulfilled her'constitutional duties, and that the ministry was alone responsible. The action of General Weyler, the dis patch says, in reaffirming his resolution to arrest and expel American citizens from Cuba has given a great deal of annoyance to the government. It is certain, the dis- patch adds, that Weylcr will either be re- called or advised to resign. General Primo de Rivera Will be appointed governor gen— eral of Cuba, and General Marin, governor of Puérto Rico, will be made commander 'in chief of the army. Carnegie is Better. GREENWICH, Conn, March 3.—Andrew Carnegie is reported much better. Al- though he had a touch of the pleurisy, yet it was in a light form. He expects to be able to move to New York city the latter part of this week. Dr. Germany will come from New York to visit him.

M RS. DAWES TELLS STORIES OF THE GREAT DANIEL. He was Unconventional and Generous. How He Earned a. Quarter from a. Rustic who Didn’t Know Him, and His Love of the Public Schools. ' There lives in a. large old-fashioned farmhouse on Chile avenue, just outside . of the city limits in Gates, an-elderly lady, who is in all probability the only person in Rochester who enjoyed an in- timate acquaintance with Daniel Web- ster when the latter was in his prime. Mrs. Dawes, for such is her name, is 80 years of age,- and is descended from a long line of Puritan ancestors. Mrs. Dawes’ great-grandfather came over with Governor Bradford on the May- flower, and the name of George Soule can be seen to this day on the tablet which records the landing Of that sturdy little band of pilgrims. one of Governor Bradford’s closest friends. Mrs. Dawes’ grandparents purchased a small promontory on the Massachu- setts coast, midway between Plymouth and,Marshfield, about six ' milesdistant from the former place. Here they lived for nearly two centuries, the place as- suming the name of Duxbury. Mrs. Dawes was born there, and when she was about 20 years of age, Daniel Web- ster, who was then a member of Con- gress, moved to Marshfield, purchasing the Thomas farm, directly across the little bay from the Dawes homestead. It did not take long for the two families to,become acquainted, for W'ebster’s genial nature and winning personality soon made him the friend of the entire neighborhood. Mrs. Dawes says that Webster was a large man with a. decid- edly plain but intelligent face. He used to walk around his farm wearing the poorest clothes he could find, and always with a large colored handkerchief wound around his throat. Mrs. Dawes said thathebster was admired by the wealthy because of his good nature and sociability and by the poor because of his generosity. One day he was asked to speak at the open- ing Of a. new district school at Duxbury. He consented, and in the course of his remarks said: “If I had 100 children I would send them all to the public schools.” Among Webster’s most fre- quent visitors at Marshfield was John Quincy Adams. Mrs. Dawes met Ad- ams on different occasions, but always said that, although he may have been more highly educated than Webster, he did not have as bright an intellect. Adams was inclined to finery, while Webster always dressed in a most un- conventional fashion. Although Web- ster has often been accused of drinking heavily, Mrs. Dawes said that she never saw him the worse for liquor during the long term of years he lived at Mansfield. She said that, although he never was a communicant of any church, Webster attended the old Congregational church at Marshfield regularly, and was of a deeply devotional nature. She remem- bers several pointed words of advice that he delivered to a young man who failed to act with proper decorum in the church one Sunday. Mrs. Dawes considered Webster to be a. man of strong will,.but, like all others living at Duxbury and Marshfield at the time, she loved the statesman for his sterling qualities. Always kind and consider. ate, he won the heart of every one he met. ' One day, when Mrs. Dawes was still a young woman, Webster and her uncle were busily engaged in fishing near the shores of the bay. She was walking along the bank, when a stylishly dressed young man from Boston, who had been visiting at Marshfield, fell in- to the marsh. It was extremely difii cult to walk across the bog at any time withOut sinking into the soft mud, much like quicksand. The youth shout ed across the bay to Webster, asking how much the latter would take to pull him out of the mud and carry him across to the opposite side. “A quar- ter,” replied Webster. After depositing the young swell safely on the other shore. he received the quarter, and turned to go away. “And to whom am I indebted?” queried the unfortunate rusticator. “Only Daniel Webster," replied the famous lawyer. It was hard for the youth to believe that the poorly dressed fisherman standing be fore him was the same man whose name was perhaps the greatest in Amer- ica at that time; but, after having been convinced of its truth, he apologized for his former patronizing air. Late Sown Fodder Com. Last year I put in a piece of corn after removing a crop of barley. ‘I had very little hay and other fodder, and wantec 'to get all I could to stand my stool.~ through the winter. The field was good corn land and was planted about July 20 with a common drain drill in rows about three feet apart. I used commercial fertilizer in the drill at the same time, so as tO fur nish a. help for rapid growth. My neighbors watched my experi ment closely, some expecting I would not get enough to pay for my trouble, but 'all were surpriSed at the result. When cut, the corn was above the fen ces and all tasselled out. It made an excellent quality and a. large quantitty of fodder. It was cut. with a. common grain binder and set in shocks until cured. _ Winter rye was drilled in this field between the rows of corn when it was about six inches high. This made nice pasture after the corn was cut and will give pasture this spring again. Thus 1 secured really three crops from this land in one season.—E. E. R., in Tri bune. Self-Evident.

Eastern people who prate about heated terms and flee to the mountains or seashore upon the approach of a brief period when the temperature is among the nineties should consider the case of a- town where the temperature from about the . middle of June to early October ranges all the way from 90 degrees to 120 degrees in the shade, and occasionally goes to 123 degrees for a few hours. What would they think of a temperature for a. full ‘month of not less than 97 degrees, of two weeks at a time when the tempera- ture has varied from 108 degrees to 115 degrees, and of a week when the ther- mometer has stood at over 112 degrees in the shade? That is what the resi- dents of "this quaint old town of Yuma experiences regularly each summér. 'All conditions seems to unite to make Yuma the hot summer spot it is. It is located in a kind of basin on the edge of the lazy, muddy Colorado River, which meanders through desert sands )and adobe soil down to the Gulf of California. Away to the west, across the river, and to the south stretches the Colorado desert; several thousand square miles in area. It is so merci- less, ghostly, arid fierce a desert waste that few dare to cross it by wagon or on foot in the summer months, and in winter or early spring travelers are careful to be accompanied by a .com- panion or two and supplied with an abundant-L: Of drinking water and food. Every summer venturesome miners lose their lives in trying to cross the desert by being overtaken by a sand storm or weakened unto death by the dreadful heat. To the north there are vastplains and uplands of barren, sun- > baked adobe soil and a peculiar for- mation of lava and soft granite, the remains of numerous extinct volcan- oes. This area absorbs the Sun’s heat by day and diStributes it by night. To the east are millions of acres that are the next thing to an absolute desert, where nothing growspexcept by irri- gation, and‘then only scantily; where no one lives who can exist elsewhere. For over 100 miles about Yuma not a tree grows naturally, and none of the forest trees that the people of New England or the Middle States know can be grown even artificially. There is not a thing in nature anywhere in the region to add a degree of coolness to the atmosphere. There are no balmy breezes from anywhere, no sea or lake air to come once in a. while as a relief after hours of steady downpouring of solar heat; not a mountain or brook, a canon or den, a grove or beach through— out a whole country to which one may resort for so much as a moment of coolness. One may gaze in any direc- tion from the highest place in Yuma. and the only color in nature to be seen is a dull, reddish brown under a blaz- ing sky. Even the sluggish river takes on the hue of the surrounding territory. Rain falls in Yuma and the region round about but four or five times in a year, and only in the early winter months. There are, however, some very heavy floods here in the months of February and March, when the water in the Colorado River rises and overflows the banks because of the melting snows away up in the moun- tains of Colorado and northern Arizona and of the heavy rains in southern California. When the water recedes and leaves bare some thousands of acres of rich bottom lands the Indians plant their mesquite beans and melon seeds for their annual, crop, just as the Egyptians do their annual ”planting along the banks of the Nile, when the floods are past. The fertility Of these bottom lands has attracted attention, and in recent years enterprising Yankees have taken up hundreds of acres and are growing to a small ex- tent fruits and melons which are first in the market even in semi-tropic southern California and Los Angeles.

The New York Sun tells of Big Jim Connolly, the gas house laborer, who was arrested for throwing his wife from the fire escape of the flat where they lived at 045 West Forty-second street, to the yard, two stories below. Connelly happened to be brought be- fore the court yesterday morning be- cause his wife Anna, who is only 1.7 years old, was discharged on Satur- day from Bellevue Hospital, where she had been since the assaultwas made. When Connelly was brought into court, his wife was asked to take the witness stand against him. This she refused to do. Nothing that the Mag- istrate could say would induce her to testify against her husband. Finally, after coaxing and pleading, Magis‘ trate Flammer said: “Younngoman, if you .do not tell us, under oath. the facts in this case, l'll commit you to prison for con- tempt of court.” "I don’t care for your commitment,” said Mrs. Connolly. “Send me to prison if you like; you’ll get nothing from me.” “Make out the papers and commit her,” ordered the Magistrate. With a vision of a term Of impris- onment before her, Mrs. Connolly con— cluded to go on the stand. She said that her husband had not thrown her from the fire escape, or even thought of it. Policeman Manning of the West Forty-seventh street station, who at- rested Connolly, said that while no one actually saw the prisoner thI‘OW. his wife down the fire escape, he could produce two women tenants of the house who heard Mrs. Connolly, cry, as she clung to the escape before her husband pushed her off: “He’s done it! He’s done it!” The Magis- trate directed the policeman to pro- duce the witnesses. Then there was a scene. Mrs. Con— nolly, finding that her husband could ' not go free, fell upon his neck and sobbed as if her heart would break. “Oh, Judge! Let him go! Let him go,” she cried between sobs. He didn’t do it! He didn’t do it! He wouldn’t do it! He wouldn’a do it. "Oh, J udgc, let him go, or let me stay with him! I wont leave him. He was always a good boy. He gave me all the money he earned at the gas house, and I put it in the bank in my, name, and he never said a. word.” The husband and wife had to be separated by court officers. When Connolly was led away to his cell his wife fairly screamed: “Let him go, I tell you. If you don’t let him go, I’ll go out and kill myself. Let him go! or my curse be upon you! May you never live to see the light of another day in this court! You’re a fine Judge! You- judge noth— ing. Let him go, I tell you! Oh, dear Judge, let him go!” Buick" (Lillian-6n Galore. During a. well-digging, the man in the well and an assistant at the top were engaged in a war Of wit, greatly appreciated by the lounging bystanders. Peter Railway, at the top, had been worsted, apparently, by Harrison Crump, down in the well, and had re- lapsed into silence. But someone said something about the number of Harri- son’s children, which was great. “Ha’son,” Peter hereupon spoke in», with deliberation, “I were gwine past yo’ house ’bout five o’clock yisterday mawnin", an’ I frowed a. brick on de roof 0’ yo’ house an’ hollered ‘Fiah!’ ‘Fo’ de LaWd, I never seed so many chillen as come runnin’ out! I goes on to town, an’ I come along back ’bout . sundown las’ night, ‘au law’s sakes, black chillen was still runnin’ out 0’ yo' house!” A City Without Chimneys. From the top of the cathedral spire in Mexico you can see the entire city, and the most striking feature of the view is the absence of chimneys. There is not a chimney in all Mexico; not a grate, nor a stove, nor a furnace. All the cooking is done with charcoal in Dutch ovens. and while the gas is . sometimes offensive, one soon becomes used to it.—Tid-Bits. THE ORIGINAL ss u _ Stamped it 3088 u , Always the Sam like?
