Addltionnl DISCUSSIONS Of Tempernno'
Railroad and Raid Claim Matters.

Senator Humphrey, as president pro
tenn. yesterday took the chair, and called
Senator Crane to preside over the senate.
A memorial was presented from Mr..
Albert Perry, one OF the directors OF the
penitentiArY, defending himself and the
board against the charges in the report
of the penItenhary investigation COM
mittee.
The various preliminary orders being
gone through with, quite q discussion
arose on tine question of referring 70 the
committee OF the whole or to the COM
mite OF ways and means the house sp-
preparation bill tor $4,000 70 the Sol
diers's Home at LeavenWorth.
Senator Blue spoke earnestly In favor
of referring to the committee of ways
and means. He said 1t was due to the
state that it should have Q reference to
the committee specially appointed as
the guardian of the states interest; there
was no necessity for this appropriation,
and 1t was not required by the United
States officers in deciding In favor OF
LeavenWortb.
Senator Buchan opposed the reference
as chairman of that committee. That
committee had already referred back
bills of thatuchaTacIer Tor the consider
/ alton of the committee OF the whole. 1t
was unjust TO require them To decide
such questions The questions of ap-
| preparations required by law they were
| willing t. 10 ke the responsibility upon.
Senator Edmunds said we were as
ready as we ever could be TO act upon
this question. Not a senator needed
enlightenment II was plain prOpO-
sition, and attempts to refer were merely
TO stave Oft and defeat it. He made q
| Il fNr INF
| actIon in favor of the bill.
Senator Blue moved as an amendment
to the amendment To refer to the com
mittee on claims, ana the other amend
Inents being Withdrawn, this amendment
prevailed.

The American Pompeii.

Under the kings of the race of Tutul-
Xius, Yucatan reached the highest de-
gree of civilization, which was perpet-
uated in the monuments of Uxmal and
of the other cities which surrounded
their capital like so many suburbs.
Their ruins have survived the fall of
the empire founded by Gamma, and the
traveller can contemplate them now as
the mute witnesses of its past grandeur.
Uxmal was the most beautiful jewel of
the Tutul-Xius' crown; nothing had
been spared in order to embellsh it. In
the intervening spaces left between its
palaces and temples they had formed
superb plazas, ornamented with ba-
sins or zonotes and shaded by the rich
foliage of banana and palm trees. An
uninterrupted chain of gardens and
promenades united the capital to the
nino neighboring cities, where the
great families of the kingdom had built
mansions which rivaled in splendor
and magnificence the residences of the
sovereign. The law which obliged
them every year to live during GER
tain time in the metropolis and to di-
vide alternately between themselves
the royal service, exempting them from
taxation, gave them an opportunity to
utilize the wealth which public pros
perity furnished them, by creating ev-
erywhere monuments. chief works of
the American art and architecture. -

description Of the Dokos. Who Are First
Cousins to Our Cousins. the Apes.
Strange stories are told of the Dokos,
who live among the moist. warm bam-
boo woods to the south Of Kaffa and
Susa, in Africa. Only four feet high,
of dark olive color, savage and naked,
they have neither houses nor temples,
neither fire nor human food. They
live only on nuts. mice and serpents,
diversified by few roots and fruits
They let their nails grow long, like
talons, the better to dig for ants, and
the more easy to tear in pieces their
favorite snakes. They do not marry,
but live indscriminate lives of animals,
multiplying very rapidly, and with
very little maternal instinct. The
mother nurses the child only for a
short time, accustoming it to eat ants
and serpents as soon as possible, and
when it can help itself it wanders away
where it will, and the mother thinks
no more about it. The Dokos used to
be invaluable as slaves, and they were
taken in large numbers.
The slave-hunters used TO hold up
bright-colored clothes as soon as they
came to the moist, warm bamboo
woods. where these human monkeys
still live, and the poor Dokos could not
resist the attractions offered by such
superior people. They crowded round
them and were taken in thousands. In
slavery they were docile, attached,
obedient, with few wants and excel
lent health. These queer people have
only one fauit--a love for ants, mice
and serpants, and habit of speaking
to Yer with their heads on the ground
and their heels in the air. Yer is their
idea of superior power to whom they
talk in this comical nature when they
are dispirited r angry, or tired of ants
and snakes and longing for unknown
food. The Dokos seem to come near
est of all people yet discovered to that
terrible cousin to humanity, the ape

How to Eat an Orange.

A New Orleans correspondent, thus
writes: l beg of you to implore your
friends never again to oinsult such noble
fruit as to eat it with spoon! Let
them adhere strictly to the following
directions as to how to eat an orange
Place the orange on a nice clean white
plate, then quarter it with silver
knife. Take one of the quarters in
your fingers and loosen the peel from
each end at the same time. until there
is but quarter of an inch of the peel
adhering to the center of the section.
Then seize the two points of peel with
your left thumb and forelinger and
hold it as you would tuberose; with
the right hand draw the blade through
the center of the fruit, as far as the
peel; if all the seeds do not drop out
why then just pick them out with the
knife. Then raise the fruit gently to
your mouth, nip off one of the little
juicy Jumps, and you never will say
spoons again!-Phiiddeiphia Times.
