SPEECH.

SENATOR BLAIR PRESENTS PETITIONS AND MAKES
SPEECH.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 30.-In the Senate to-day
Mr. Blair presented petition signed by about 1000 cti
zcns of the District Of Columbia other petitions
signed by large numbers Of citizens Of the Territories of
Washington. Dakota and Idaho, all praying for the
actment by Congress of law prohibiting the manufac-
tre sale of alcoholic liquors in the District and Terri
tories Mr. Blair said that for many years petitions Of
this character had been coming to both branches Of Con-
gress without any tangible result During all these
years agitation had been constantly gaining strength
He looked upon the problem involved OF the most
serious which engage attention. not alone from the
standpoint OF the moral TeOr but wei from that
of the economist and statesman. II demanded at the
hands OF Congress as profound study any subject
which could come before it.
In the remarks, few days Of the Senator from
Mane Cir. Frye, that gentleman had shown how the
rules Of Congress the subject OF liquors in the Capitol
had been set at naught, and impression widely
prevalent among the people that the Capitol itself had
come to be used sort of national groggery. If this
impression was an should be corrected and if
founded fact the fact should he promptly and effect
lively dealt with. What Congress had thought fit to do
for the Capitol it had no reason for
fuslng TO do for the District in which
the Capitol was situated. There could
he no doubt of the authority of Congress in the matter
either in the District in the Territories Whether pro-
hibOn the best method of dealing with the evils OF
incompetence rot, 1t certain that large proper
most liberal minds among the American people believed
IL the only complete remedy These petitions, Mr..
Blair continued had here under the auspices OF the
Woman's Christian Temperance Union which he looked
upon OF the most powerful agencies for good which
the world had yet seen, and the subject, from its
seriousness and Importance East forcing itself upon
the attention Of the American people be hoped i would
receive the earnest consideration OF Congress- Washing
ton especially As II was the representative city, should
also be the model city OF the Union.

How to Select Cantaleups.-You can
always tell whether cantaleup has ripened on
the plant or if it has been rpened artifcially, by
examining the stalk, as if the latter it will be
quite shriveIed. If the melon is heavy it proves
it is not spongy, if the skin smells strong it ind-
Gates a well-favored melon, and if on pressing
the little round opposite the stalk you find it not
quite hard you may feel that the Fruit is ripe.
Some good housewives bite the stalk of the melons
before buying them, as they say that the more
bitter the stalk the sweeter the melon.
