returned for dinner.
BURNED HERSELF TO DEATH.
They found the door locked and smoke
issuing from the windows. The door was
broken down, and rushing in they found
the room in flames. After the fire was
extinguished they beheld a shocking
sight. In corner of the room were the
charred remains of Mrs. Spring and her
two children. A bedstead formerly occu-
pied the corner in which the remains
were found. The bedstead has been en-
tirely consumed. Kerosene oil was found
literally scattered over the furniture and
floor. The woman, doubtless, saturated
the bed with oil, took her children in her
arms and then met her death. The event
has created great excitement.

Notable Events Visible in the Heaven
During the Month.


Mercury is evening star until April 81
when he becomes morning star. lie
comes to the front on the planetary re-
cords, easily winning the place of honor,
as be is the only member of the suns
FAMILY who contributes interesting incl
dents to the annals of April. The most
noteworthy event-the elongation OF Mer-
cury-occurs on the Sth. This smallest
and swiftestof the planets will be charm
ing object in the early evening sky from
the beginning to the middle of April.
Jupiter is evening star, and will be first
and foremost for size and brilllancy among
the starry host. lie presents an OBJECT
beautiful to behold as ne makes ms way
over the celestial road, followed by his
twinkling attendant. Re ulus, planet
and star, keep about the same distance
from each other during the month, lot
Jupiter Is in stationary aspect and varies
little in his bearings. SIX years must H.
terVehe before he seemingly completes
the circle OF the zodiac, and comes round
again, 1891, periheliOn and greatest NORTH
eru declinatiOn.
Saturn is evening star, and holds his
court in the western sky, having passed
the meridian before it is dark enough
for him to be visible, and sinking below
the western horizon before midnight
when the month commences. lie, like Ia
piter, is nearly stationary during the
month.
Neptune is evening star. lie Is very
near the sun, and tue first Of the four
great planets TO disappear below the horl-
ION.
Uranus is evening star but his course
during A ri prese nothing noteworthy.
Nan,l. Ta fNBIIFn nearly
lost to sight She is very near the. sun,
and will soon pass beyond the great ORB.
Mars is morning star, recedlng slowly
from the sun ana approaching The eo4tn
Al The end OF the month he rises about
half an hour before the sun.
The April moon tulls on the ~ n
at IA O'Clock In the morning. Inc
waning moon is in close conjunction with
Mars aud Venus on the 18th, the day be-
tore her change. She Is at her nearest
point to Mercury and Neptune on the
l6tn, in COZ junction with saturn on the
18th, with Jupiter on the 3D. and with
Uranus on the 10Th The moons con-
functions in her April circuit are not
noteworthy for they are either invisible,
or moon and planet are far apart as they
pass on the celestial road. she Occults
the planet Venus, on the l4th, at 3 O'Clock
in the afternoon. The phenomenon may
be observed with the and OF powerful

AN ADJOURNMENT SINE DIE.

senator CAN Makes an Explanation
Concerning FlOrida's Indian Claim.
WASHINGTON, April AT A O'Clock
the doors were reopened and the Senate
resumed its legislative session.
Mr.. Saulsbury's resolution to suppress
the spurious report from the Committee
on Post Offices and Post Roads was called
up and adopted.
MIR. CALL EXPLAINS.
Mr.. Call arose to personal eXplana-
ton. A Florida newspaper had charged
him with having caused the defeat Of the
bill introduced by his colleague directing
the Secretary Of the Treasury to settle the
claims OF the State of Florida for eXpendi-
lures made in the suppression of Indian
hOstilities. The charge was wholly false.
The bill had been postponed upon motion
OF his colleague because of the discovery
that the Governor had entered INFO con-
tract with a claim agent, by the terms of
which the claim agent was to receive
SEQ, 900 out of the $4,000 10 be
received in case of a successful prosecu-
ton of the claim. He (Call) had nothing
to do with the matter, although he heart
lily approved the action of his colleague.
The charges of the newspaper were false
and libelous.
At APO Mr.. Sherman moved that the
Senate adjourn sine die. Thiswas carried.
In announcing the result, the Vice
President said: "SenatOTs, desire to eX-
press to you my obligations and thanks
for the kindness and support have re-
ceiVed at your hands. The Senate stands
adjourned without day"
