WAITING FOR GROVEn.
Appropriation Bills Said to be Much DELAYED
in the House.

appropriation Bills Said to be Much Delayed
in the House.
Washington special: In spite of Mr. Ran
dall's evident effort to push them, the appro-
priation bills are much delayed in the house,
and the time for their consideration will be
unusually short. Only thirty DAYS of the
present session are now left. and little else
can lie done than to pass the appropriation
bills. In fact this is the programme of the
democratic leaders in the house, who are
az; eed that 40 och, + bill, except the electoral
count bill, shall be passed.
The business of this congress has been
greatly delayed and much legislation is likely
TO be defeated because of an indisposition OF,
the part of democratic members to do any
thing that might embarrass the plans and
purposes OF the new Administrations A DO
ntical revolution was effected at the polls in
November last and the business of the conn
Iry is necessarily more or less sensitive to it,
IL is natural enough that the four months
the e ection and preceding the in
iuguratioh or democratic president should,
inder the Gil cumstancts be something of
ritical period. 1t is the vestibule of a fn-
nre about which there is uncertainty.

General Grants Condition.

The Medical Record Of Saturday con.
tanned the following:
"Since the last bulletin Of the Medical
Record was issued a consultation has
been beld in Gen. Grants case, attended
by Dr.. Fordyce Barker, J. H. Douglas,
Henry B. Sands ami Geo. F. Shrady
A that time March 8th) the general
condition Of the distinguished patient
MAS quite feeble, although be was able
to walk across his library and seat him
self in chair for the necessary exanii-
nation of his throat The latter was
possible without giving him pain. 1t
was found that the liberation of the
posterior pillar of the right fauces had
extended, and that the perforation at
tho base of tho anterior pillar had in
creased so that its internal edge was
converted into small bride OF tissue.
The entire soft palate was uniformly
Redeemed and swollen, and the right
posterior border of the tongue was in
durated from point just in front of the
anterior pillar of the fauces as far back
as could be reached by the finger. The
gland under the right angle of the Jaw
was still enlarged and hard, but quite
movable. The pain in the ear had en-
tirely disappeared, and there was no
srecial difficulty in swallowing; neither
was there any marked salvation. The
most grateful application to the throat,
next to the spray of four per cent.
solution of coeoaine, was that of hot
solution of salt and water in a prepare
ton Of five parts to thousand, used
occasionally as a gargle. The patient
complained that his sleep was irregular
and titful, and be was thereby convert
ing night into day. Codeine in grain
doses was accordingly recommended as
an anodyne. Otherwise no charge in
the general treatment wss suggested
The local applications employed by DR..
Douglas were fully Endorsed. The pre-
vlous diagnosis of the disease of the
throat was unanimously confirmed. The
OF an anodyne was sub
sefuently attended with good results,
securing five hours of uninterrupted
siumber at a time. In the course of the
following three days the effect was not
so marked, and another sedative was
prescribed. The angry redness of the
palatal curtain has in measure disap-
peared, and there is now occupying a
portion of its left side
shaped, sharply defined gran
ular exuberance which has an ominous
appearance. The Lucrative process in
the anterior pillar has, since the consul
tation, extended to the adjoining side Of
the tongue, and the bride of tissue
bounding the perforation of the anterior
pillar internally gave way Wednesday.
During Thursday the patient was in
reasonably comfortable state, his tenn
perature was normal and pulse regular,
but he was suffering somewhat from the
effects of insomnia. His digestion was
good and semi-solid food is taken easily
and with reasonable relish. He suffers
no pam. In the face of all these geDer-
al symptoms, the local difficulty has
markedly increased, and the parts in
the vicinity of the alterations are be-
coming more infiltrated."

in the death of General JOSEPH BELL,
one Of the landmarks of Jackson has been
removed He died on Tuesday last at his
residence near this city and was buried
near a tree which he had planted, and in
accordance with wish he had several
times expressed. He was widely known
citizen, especially in connection with land
matters. In early life, he was a minister
of the Cumberland Presbyterian church
In 1912 he represented Noxubee and Win
ston counties in the State Senate. In 1852
he was elected Secretary of State, and on
the resignation of Governor Quitman he
convened the Senate in order that a sue
cessor might be duly qualified, and it was
then he adopted an expression that he
often afterwards used, ''the country is safe. y
He was genial, kind-ht arted, and. when he
had the means, was liberal and generous.
We gratefully remember noble coptribu-
tion that he made when we called upon
him to help the Orphans Home at Lau-
derdale. Others gave their 6ves and tens
but Gen. Jo. Bell signed .ais name to a
check for fifty dollars. May the sod resi-
