WHAT WAS IN A NAME.

In moment of inspiration, Mrs. BoECK-
NER of New York, named her baby boy
JAY GOULD. and her fondest anticipations
were realized by the receipt of a crisp, new
$50 note from the great iinancier. who thus
gave evidence that he possesses a soul not
insensible to the establishments of delicate
fiattery. But the head of the BoFCKNER
household, firm in his adherence TO anti
mOnopolistic principles, declined to permit
his progeny to be utilized for the glorifca-
ton of a millionaire, whose name has ever
been intimately associated with mo-
nopoly in its most grasping form.
The more he brooded over the
matter the more thoroughly convinced
he became of the fact that Mr.. GOULD did
not deserve this honor. He was willing to
admit that the ffty-dollar note was quite
free from Objectionable features. particu-
larry when its convertibilitY into numerous
beers was considered, but when the partner
of his bed and board announced her en-
phatic intention of reserving the money for
the exclusive use and behOOf OF the infant
BoEoKNER, the gift appeared To be quite
without merit. Then he felt it his bounden
duty to demonstrate and assert his hatred
of anything that savored of monopoly.
In the warmth of the discussion he at
tempted to enforce his arguments with a
convenient cudgel, but was so effectually
mastered in the debate by Mrs. BoEcKNER
that he now languishes in prison cell. In
the meanwhile JAY GOULD, Jr., despite
his tender years. betrays supreme indiffer-
ence TO the entire proceedings which is only
equaled by that with which his illustrious
namesake views the ruin which his stock
jobbing operations have wrought In count
less homes.

THIS WEEK CONGRESS.
Dakota and Fitz-J John Porter Likely
10 Get Early Attention.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-The unfinished
business of the senate is the electoral count
bill. A wide difference of opinion among
Republican senators in respect TO important
features of this measure was developed
when it was last under discussion, and
some of them have expressed q wish that
final action be delayed for a time. No
definite arrangement has been made on this
subject but it is not improbable that the
bill will be temporarily laid aside after
some discussion. Should this be done the
senate will be enabled to take up the Da-
kota bill or the bankruptcy bill as the next
subject for consideration. Senator Blair
has given notice of his intention to call up
the education bill at the first convenient OPP
portunity, but none is likely to occur dur
ing this week. The bill to divide the Sioux
reservation has the first right of considera-
| ton in the morning hour under the five
minute rule and will probably be disposed
of tomorrow. On Tuesday eulOgies of the
late Vice President Hendricks will be de-
livered.
IN THE HOUSE
tomorrow, after the call of states for the in
PRODUCTION Of bills is completed, the COM
mitteeS will have an opportunity TO report
any measures prepared by them during the
past week. The bills most likely to be
taken up for action under the morning hour
call of the committees this week are those
fOfeiting sundry unearned land grants to
railroads IA certain Southern states and pro-
viding Tor the voluntary retirement of naval
| officers. The MatsOn bill for the increase
of widows pensions remains the unfinished
business for the house after the morning
| hour OF Tuesday. The indications are that
the discussion Is nearly exhausted. and that
a vote VIII be reached early in the week.
The special order for Thursday is the de-
livery OF eulogies upon the late Represent
alive EllwOOd of Illinois. Friday being
private oil dag, an effort may be made to
secure the consideration of the Fitz-John
Porter bill, which stands high upon the cal
endar, but 1t is expected that considerable
debate will arise upon the measure, in
which event it may go over without final
action until the next private bill day.
