The Flowers that Local option Brings.

When the Senate convened yesterday
morning the desks Of Senator'S Petit.
Stubbs, Rhea. Williams, and keelell
were ornamented with flowers. The
two former had elegant baskets, ana
the three latter pretty vases filled with
flowers. On each Of the bouquets was
attached by blue ribbon card with
the following inscription
with the compliments and thanks 81
the Good Tempiar ladies OF richmond ahd
Manchester for his noble service IN a cause
very dear TO them
These gentlemen have been very
Jealous in their lsbors in behalf OF the
passage of a general local-option bill,
and il is for their services IN this re-
spect that the compliments were tend
cred.
Later during the session Of the
Senate a basket of rare flowers was
placed on Northumberland Massey 5
desk. 1t came from the same source
and had the same inscription as above.
This, it is presumed, was compliment
to Mr.. Massey for the casting vote
which be gave, a few days ago, on an
amendment to the bill, which vote de-

Allcock's Porous Plasters have been
used in our family for the last three or
four years with very beneficial results.
Previous to that time | had been sub
iect to attacks Of severe pain in M
left side. Hot cloths aul liniments
afforded temporary relief, bat after
a while the pain always returned. In
the fall Of l>sO, after a very severe at
tack, was advised by a friend to try
an Allcocks Porous Plaster on my
side, which greatly benefited me. After
that tried several kinds Of plasters 20
see which was best, and finally decided
that Allcock's suited my case the best.
/ have worn them constantly on my
side ever since. and have never been
troubled with the pain except when !
left them Off for few DAYS. We al
ways keep a supply in the house, and
whenever a pain seizes any Of Us IN any
part Of the body We Just apply an Al
cocks plaster. and can most heartily
recommend them.

Richmond College students in wash
fngtOn.


ingtOn.
The last of the regular intermediate
examinations at Richmond College was
held on Thursday the 18th. The next
morning a rereiliG was sounded at 5
o'clock, the place was soon astir, and
within an hour coach at Bolton, OPP
posite the college, was crowded with a
merry party of students Off for a day
of rest and sightseeing. Day broke
bright and balmy the roseate advance
guard OF the sun in the east was just
beginning to outshine the calm, pale CO.
horts of the full moon as she hung
above the western horizon when the
:" special" was coupled on to the
A" fast mail " and sped away towards
Washington city.
OF the sights by the way one of the
most beautiful, and one which some Of
the party had not enjoyed for months,
was a country sunrise among the pines
of Hanover. Could anything be pref
tier? Soon came the historic plain
and its encircling hills from liamilton's
to Fredericksburg. Professor Harris,
who accompanied the party. had been
an artilleryman there in 1862, aud
pointed out the positions of Lee and
Burnside and the parts of the line at
which the battle ragged most fercely.
Presently the young men from the up
country were gazing with open-eyed adj
miration at he broad expanses of water
while the train dashed along the banks
of the Potomac or slowly crossed the
drawbridges over its allluent creeks.
And last came splendid views from the
slow-moving train Of Arlington, the
monument, the White House, and the
Capitol.
Arriving in Washington at 1920
O'Clock. the party broke up into Sec
tons. Some went to the Smithsonian,
the monument, the War and Navy
Departments, the Presidents reception
at P. NJ, the Corcoran Art Gallery,
Columbian University, and last to the
Capitol. Others took somewhat the
same round, but in the opposite direc-
ton. Others still, intending to stay
over another day, reserved some of the
best for more time. Others sat in the
Senate gallery to hear Mr.. Evarts on
the Blair bill, and yet others saw what
they could as inclination or accident
directed them. 1t was Of course i'm
possible in six hours to see anything
satisfactorily, and yet we dare to affirm,
without any reflection upon the learned
and laborious faculty Of our college,
that its students have not learned
so much on any one day since the
session opened. More than half the
party returned Friday night-the rest
on Saturday. The homeward trip
was enliyened by many an amusing ac-
count Of what each had seen. The
only accident reported befel young
gentleman who niscaleulated the speed
Of the street-car, stepped oil, came
1 down on the stones, and Suffered seri-
GUS lesion in the right knee--of his
psntaloOns. Some pins suiiiced to re-
pair the breeches temporarily, bat they
will never again DO "as good % new"
The party met nothing but kindness
from railroad and Government officials,
from old scqnaintances, and from
strangers. They express great obliga-
tons for special coartesie5 to Conduct

Pearst's Speech.

SAN FRANCISCO, June B. A Wash. ington dispatch to-day says that one of the most remarkable and, at the same time, humliating spectacles that was ever seen in Congress toos place in the Senate when George Hearst, the new senator from California, delivered what was intended to be an eulogy upon the life and character of his predecessor, John F. Miller. Hearst never made a speech in public before, and his friends will never want to hear him again He htd evidently stimulated himself to undergo the ordeal of maiden spec, h until he was in condition of extreme intoxicaIon, and he read his remarks in manner that caused the other senators 10 exchange glances of indignation and surpr'se, and provoked laughe CT in the galleries. His speech which he wrote out himself was terribly misspelt and wou d not have done credit to a twelve. year old school boy.
