EFFORTS TO SHUT» OFF the TALK
Senators See the _ Ne'cesslty of Getting
Down to Business—Programme Laid
Out in the House for lepeal of the
‘ Federal Election Law.
WASHINGTON, Sep. 22.——The first hour
of yesterday’s session of the senate was
occupied in a discussion of the resolution
offered by Mr. Flatt (rep, Conn.) for the
establishment of a cloture rule. Mr. Platt
made/such a strong clear argument to
show the. necessity for such a rule that
Mr. Voorhees (dem., Ind.) felt called upon
to express the debt which the senate and
the country owed to him for itr The jun-_
ior senator from-Massachusetts (Mr. Lodge,
rep.) also Supported the proposed rule, al-
thoughhe foresaw that it Would place in
the hands of the democratic majority the
power to pass bills changing the tariff and
repealing-the federal electiOn laws. He in-
sisted that, if senatorial courtesy permitted
unlimited-debate, that courtesy must be
reciprocal, and must permit votes to be
taken.
, Amendments to fair. Platt’s resolution
.. were offered by Mr. Hoar (rep., Mass.)
and Mr. Hill (dem., N. Y.) and the resolu-
tion went. over until to-day, when Mr.
Teller (rep., Col.) will argue against it.
The repeal bill was then taken up and
an argument against it made by Mr.-
White (dem., Col.) who spoke for over four
hours. Many of the democratic senators .
geve'him an attentive hearing, but nine-
tenths of the seats on the republican side
of the chamber were vacant during most
of the speech. After he took his seat and
after Mr. George declined to go on with
his speech in the evening, a motion was
made by Mr. Voorhees to lay on the table
Mr. Pefier’s amendment to the bill. The
motion was opposed by the minority, who
resorted to fillibustering. ,After an hour or
so spent in that way, Mr. Voorhees with-
drew his motion, but the general discus
sion went on until 7:30, when the senate
adjourned. ’ *
at
House.
WASHINGTON, Sept 22.—The journal of
the previous day’s proceedings in the
house was not approved yesterday until
the hour of adjournment. Mr. Reed dis-
covered some flaws in it and called the
speaker’s attention to them. They were
attributable to the journal clerk—the
speaker not having had an opportunity to
examine the journal—and placed the
speaker in a rather awkward position.
In his decisions, he studiously refrained‘
from declining to recognize motions not
because they were “dilatory” motions, but
because they were “motions.” Mr. Reed
thought that the entries of the clerk were
proper, even though they might not be ac- "
curate ones. The question of approving
the journal was postponed but later in the
day was agreed to. In the meantime the
committee on rules reported a resolution
providing for the consideration of the fed-
eral election repeal bill on the 26th of Sep-
tember, the debate 'to continue until Oc-
tober 10th when a vote should be taken.
Afters. briefdiscussion the resolution was
adopted. .
A report from the committee on accounts
assign‘ing'the committees that should be
entitled to session clerks was taken up,
but withoutdispOSing of it, the house at
4:45 adjourned. - ' .
BLACK WASTE.
Scene of the Fatal Prairie Fires Along the
Cherokee Strip.
German, 0. T., Sep. 22.-+The scene of
the recent terrible prairie fires on the Paw-
nee reservation is one of devastation.
Scattered all over the prairie are partially
burned wagons, wrecked camp outfits and
the charred remains of household goods,
and here and there the body of a horse.
For miles and miles as far as the eye can
can reach, it is a black waste and to add
to the horror of it all, in a numberof
places are found blackened and burned
human trunks. Nearly a dozen of these
bodies have been found and it is feared that
many have perished. There is no clew
whatever to the identity of these unfortu- ,
.the disease has taken root.
Th’e'duststéi-m continued all day with
unabated fury and hundreds are leaving
every town of the strip, unable to stand
the hardships any longer. At Perry 'the
dust is thickest," and-ail business is sus-
pended. The suflering inhabitants have
soughtrefuge from the = blowing, sifting
sand in tents and under wagons.

“he 'thats’rich' color?” said a well
known lawyer-the other day as he held ~ A
ups brier wood pipe of an almost ebon
'hue. ' Then he stroked it fondly withhis'
hand and finally took to rubbing it with
his coat sleeve. “It has taken me over a
year to color-“that pipe, and I don’t think
you could buy it now at any price. I
used to smoke cigars—I do now to some
extent-but I prefer a pipe when read-
ing or working . over my papers. You
see a cigar is always dropping ashes and
massing things up. Then the smoke
'gets in your eyes when leaning over.
But a pipe—oh, there is nothing like it
for real solid comfort. My wife says this
old fellow is getting dreadfully strong,
but she hasn’t the heart to ask me to dis-
card it for a. new one. See the way; that
rich chocolate tint merges in the black—
that velvety looking black—and then the
gloss that seems to have grown up fro
beneath the surface. " -

Rich Sap From Maple Trees.
The more uneven, rocky and ledgy the
land and the drier the soil, except‘where
cold springs abound, the better are the
products Of the maple. Trees standing
in or near cold springs will discharge the
most and the sweetest sap. .I'am acquaint-
ed with one- tree standing by a spring,
seven quarts of whose sap .will make a
pound of nice white sugar. The rich-
neSs Of this sap will be realized when it
is remembered that it takes 16 quarts of
average sap to make a pound. The black
maple is the richest for sap of any vari-
ety. Our poorest sugar orchards give
us about two pounds of sugar to the
tree, ~ while our best ones yield five. and
six pounds a tree. I have heard of a few
extra orchards yielding '7, 8 and 10
pounds to the tree, and one extraordi-
nary one that has yielded 16 pounds to a
tree. The quantity of sugar that can
be made from single trees in one seaSoii
of six weeks at most will depend on
many circumstances.
The more Spouts put into a tree the
more sap is obtained and the more sugar
is made. From the tree already referred
'to as'standing near a cold spring there
were made 30% pounds in one asou
with two spouts, which emptied into the
same tub. They were set in holes'bor'e’d

Stranded In Artistic Surroundings.
It is really amusing and sometimes
pitiful to see how men eufier from the
artistic mania, of their wives. I know
. of a case where a husband was nOt al-
lowed to touch any of the furniture in
the drawing room for fear he would dis«
faith the efiect-of color and outline. He
wisely stipulated, bewever, that he
should have his own chair in the room,
which he was to be at liberty to do with
as he liked. -
Being aman of infinite jest hemauag-
ed to evolve the most delightful and
comic situations when visitorS'were pres-
ent, cXplaining that it was his want of
artistic feeling which made it neces‘b‘ary
for him to carry his chair about .With
him. He asked that when his frierrlds
contemplated their surroundings from
an artistic point of ,view they shOuld
kindly consider him and his chair out of
.. the picture. Needless to say it wasnot
very long before all restrictions were
withdrawn and he was allowed to work
what havoc he pleased in the drawing
room as well as everywhere else in the
house.—'—Boston:-G10be. ' '
An Umbrella Is Good For a Shower.

Subsequently he was met by the friepd
who had given him the advice and was
asked how he enjoyed the bath.
“My dear fellow,” said he, .‘ ‘it was
capital. I liked it really well, and what
do you think? I kept myself dry too.”
“Whatever do you mean?” exclaimed
his friend, in natur‘al surprise. “How-
ever could you, manage to take the show-
er and yet remain quite dry?” ’
“Why, you Can’t think for a moment

ABOUT A PHILADELPHIA BELLE
A Knight Errunt Consider. a Chicago Man
Too Attentlvc and the Matter is Settled
According to the Code—Tho Knight Has
a Hole in His Shoulder.
CHICAGO, Sep. 22.—The Evening Post
sais: A duel was fought at Cheltenham
Beach, 15 miles, south of Chicago, last
night, the combatants being William
Ficklen of 54 Oakwood Boulevard and a
Philadelphia man. The letter received an
ugly wound in the left shoulder, while
Ficklen escaped unhurt. The trouble was
caused by a woman. Her name is with-
held by Ficklen, who admits fighting a-
duel. Ficklen also refuses to' tell the
name of the man with whom he fought,
but says he was a cousin Of the lady. The
cousin, in view of the outcome of the af-
fair, is equally anxious to remain un-
known. Out of regard for the lady con-
cerned Mr. Ficklen refused to say what
circumstances led up to the quarrel, but
the facts are said to be as follows: A
friend of Ficklen’s from Philadelphia,
whom he declares is not Frank Keef, came
to Chicago a month ago to see the world’s
fair. He was accompanied by a party of
relatives, T among them [the pretty girl
cousin, about whom the trouble arose.
-She was engaged to be married to a man
in Philadelphia, it is said, but the ac-
cepted lover unfortunately stayed behind.
Mr. Ficklen met her and, according to the
idea of her male cousin, became too atten-
tive- He remonstrated with the Chicago
man, but it appears was not satisfied with ‘
the latter’s conduct even after his re-
, ”aches had been made. The Philadel-
phia. man finally brought matters to a
climax by challenging Ficklen to fight a
a duel.
Ficklen accepted the challenge and being
the challenged party chose swords. Ac-
companied by their seconds both men went
to a secluded spot at Cheltenham beach
later at night and prepared to settle the
matter by the light of the moon. The
cousin of the girl was excited but deter-
mined. Ficklen, who scarcely believed
that it really was the intention of his
friend to push the matter so far, was
watchful. Ficklen was the more adept of
the two with the sabres and contested
himself with pari'ying his foe’s thrusts and
blows until assured by the latter’s deter—
mined onslaughts that he meant to draw
blood before he was satisfied. Then Fick-
len resolved to wound his opponent snfii-
ciently to bring the affair to ,a close.
Watching his opportunity, he slipped his
sabre across the weapon of his foe and
pressed the point into his shoulder. That
ended the affair. , . a
'- The Philadelphia man lowered his sabre
and drew back, the bidet! flowing from a
wound in his shoulder. His second came
up and asked if both parties were satisfied.
Ficklen before leavmg for the city assured
his adversary that he was entirely mistaken
in the idea that he (Ficklen) was trying
to steal away the heart of another man's
promised bride. The’ wounded "man was
taken to his room in Chicago where his
shoulder was, dressed and then he and his
friends, including the fair cousin, started
for Philadelphia. “I am sorry this afiair
got out,” said Mr. Ficklen. “I intend
to go east in a few days and then I will
see that this quarrel is adjusted. The man
had no causu to find fault with me and
there was no reason why he should think
as he did.”
SIDEWALK UPSETS.
Serious Accident on 3 World's Fair Trans- '
portatlon Device,
CHICAGO, Sep. 22. —-A serious accident
occurred yesterday on the movable sidewalk
which extends along the Casino pier.

part of the machinery and a large section
of the sidewalk was torn from its fasten-
ings. The seats became derailed and
‘slipped,{ throwing, over 200 passengers

severely bruised and_cut. A few were re-
moved to the hospital by the ambulance
corps. Employee on the pier and sidewalk
kept the people cool and avoided a panic.

to that statement. .
In that circular D. O. Eshbaugh, the
president of .the company, gives figures
from its books bearing on the subject, and
points out that it had less interest overdue
on July lst,'1893, by $11,500 than it had
on July lst, 1892, and says that in the
light of these figures it seems strange that
any mortgage company should attribute
its embarrassment to the failure of western
farmers to pay their interest promptly.
Western farmers, he says, have met their
obligations throughout the trying times of
the last few months at least as satisfactd-
rily as any other class of debtors.
Bank presidents and other men who are
informed on the subject confirmed the
statement of Mr. EShbaugh as to the man—
ner in which western farmers have met
their obligations during the present year.
