CONGRESS, SESSION.
Doubt as to the Day of the Delivery of
the Presidents Message.

WASHINGTON, Dec. at is still uncer-
tain whether the Presidents message
Will be sent in tomorrow or on Tuesday,
though the probabilities seem to be
strongly in favor ofTuesday. The member
ship of the Senate committees will doubt
less be speedily arranged through caucus
instrumentality, but the appointment
of the House committees by the new
Speaker may be expected to require much
more time. Judging from precedents,
little or nothing will be done by Congress
this week except to organize, receive the
Presidents message, and afford op-
pOrtunity for the Introduction of bills. In
recent Congresses from IA to "a days have
elapsed between the election of the
Speaker and the announcement of the

CARLISLE'S POLICY.
He Attributes His Election to the Prin-
ciDle Which He Represents.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Gov. Under
wood, of Ohio, a personalfriend and neigh
Dor of Mr.. Carlisle, had long interview
tonight with that gentleman, in which
he (Carlisle) very freely expressed his
views as to the policy that should be pur-
sued by the majority in the House. He
said that he recognized the fact
that it was principle of
which he was the representative
that had elected him. and it was some
thing to be thankful for that the Demo-
cratic party had at last realized that a
principle affecting great majority of the
people was vastly more important
to the party and the country
than the success of any man. He
interpreted his election to mean that
from this time forth the Democratic party
would 20 to the people with an aggressive
and definite policy, and adhere to it be-
cause it was right and deserved to win.
He said that the committees would be or
ganlzed with view solely to the fitness
of the members for the various subjects
of legislation that would command the at
tentlon of Congl ess, and without undue
regard to their relations to him in the re-
cent contest.

quest of Postmaster General James he
consented to remain in Washington at his
own expense, and without compensation,

that he received the promise, both of

Poultry Notes.

sN'E''Ne - bbN 'ltLl' ltdbOil why bp
many people have what they call
poor luck" with fowls.
The tear Of lice il the beginning
of wisdom in the hen business. The
breeder who masters that difficulty
will find other things comparatively
easy.
1t is less difficult than many sup
pose TO know every tosl Of flock by
sight. Variety in form and feature il
not confined to the human race.
The habit OF fielding flock Of
fowls a little each morning, not half
enough to fiji their crops, and then u
giving no more uulil the next day, is
a common practice and a short.sight-
ed one. No domestic stock can be
profitable if kept in half starved
condition. Comfort il the first re.
qulsite.
When fowls are forced to roost in
trees or under open sheds in winter,
don't make any serious complaint if
dishonest nelghbors steal them Death
puts them out of a great deal Of mis-
cry. When forced to sleep in this
way at night it is a rational conclu.
sion that their comfort and happi.
ness 10y day are not much studied.
When fowls are very wild it does
not speak well for the care and kind.
