The Railroad Sinking Fund BiII.

WASHINGTON, March 9th.-The
Senate Committee on Railroads
has unanimously agreed to recon-
mend the passage of the Dorsey Pa
cific Railroad sinking fund. bill, with
certain important amendments
prepared by Senators Mitchell,
Matthews, Dorsey, Randall and
Barnum, the subcommittee in
charge of the subject. The bill as
thus agreed to is amended by the
entire omission of the section which
provided for the reconveyance of
IL, 2,O0O, 900 acres of land grants TO
the government on condition that
sinking funds should be created
therefor at the rate of ST. 25 per
acre. The section providing that
the Union Pacific and Central Pa
cific companies should be given the
preference for government business
is also stricken out. The main
features of the amended bill
are as follows: All moneys due
these two companies on the 1st day
Of April next for government
transportation are to form the nue.
leus of the proposed sinking fund,
the amount to be made equal by
cash payment il necessary to at
least S1,000,0 900 for each company.
They are thereafter each to pay in
to the treasury of the United States
ST 900, 900 per year in semi-annual
payments until the year 1900, when
the bonds endorsed by the govern
ment will become due. Interest is
to be accumulated semi-annually
at the rate of six per cent. year
OH all amounts thus placed to the
credit of the sinking fund and
these payments are to be in lieu of
the requirements of the present
law, as to the annual payment of
five per cent. of the net earnings
and the retention of one-half of the
earnings for government transport
tation. The balance found due the
United States by the companies in
1900 is to be paid in fifty semi-an-
nual installments, together with
the interest on deferred pay yments,
at q rate Of interest which shall be
equal to the rate then being paid
by the government on the majority
of its securities.

Remarkable Intelligence
Of Flies.

Tn one of the churches on
Sunday, a member of the con-
gregation witnessed on the part
of several flies n most extraor-
dinafy exhibition of mind-read-
ing. An aged and bald-headed
gentleman and stranger with
in the gates entered the cdlfice
and took a front seat. 1t was
noticed that he was eonsidera-
bly, short-sighted by the squint-
ing of his eyes and his general
movements. After he had be-
come seated he was evidently
troubled over the loss of some
thing, and it was conjectured
that he wanted his spectacles.
This conjecture, in connection
with the fact that the spectacles
were upon his forehead, the
glasses having a strategic posi-
ton between bcnevoIence and
veneration, with the rear fast
enings resting upon bumps Of a
more worldly character, pro-
voked disposition on the part
Of some worshippers to go to
him and break in upon his dis
turbed soul the intelligence that
his spectaclcs were within reach
ing distance. But before any
one moved four or five flies
started for him, evidently hay-
ing the same object in view, and
they all landed on his bald head
at once, manifestly designing TO
light with force enough to at
tract his attention. The exper-
iment was a perfect success.
No sooner had the flies struck
solidly upon their feet than up
went his right hand, and that
movement disclosed the pres
ence of the spectacles (rcally
fly specs now, and the man was
made happy at once. 1t was
observed that the flies re-
manned in his vicinity during
most of the service, probably
because they liked to linger
near the scene of their success
full labors, and also because it
was comforting for them to see
how human happiness would
display itself in case where so
much relief had been afforded.
