OF members who will wish TO make long
winded speeches, it wiiltake at least month
to bring the question to vote. There is no
telling what may be the fate of the bill in
the Senate, should it reach that branch of
Congress. Mr.. Morrison thinks, however, if
the bill is properly managed much OF the
contemplated music will be cut short, and
the bill brought to an early consideration.
Representative Reed, of Maine, the leader
on the Republican side Of the House. believes
it possible to adjourn by the 1st of July, and
sees no use of the session continuing longer.
Governor Long said tonight, in speaking
of the Bankrupt bill, that he believed it
would pass if it was. ever reached. But he
fears the bill will not be considered by this

the East favoring the passage of the bill,
while at the West and South different opin-

DREADFUL TRAGEDY.
An Insane Mother Brains Three OF Her
Children With an Axe.

KEYroRT, n. J., April 2;;.-At the home of
J. NJ. Smith, seven miles south of this place,
to-day most dreadful tragedy occurred
Mr.. Smith is tifty-five years old, and his wife
forty-three, and the mother of six children,
aged nineteen, eighteen, thirteen, eleven,
seven and four years respectively.
Some years ago the wife and
mother was sent to an insane asylum and
was discharged a year later, presumably
cured. Last fall she had severe pains in her
head, and her husband sent her to her broth
er's house in Elizabeth. where she improved
greatly, and returned home short time ago.
This morning, after breakfast, she went to
one of the outbuildings on the premises,
and after swallowing a dose of trough on
rats, returned to the house with an axe
concealed under her dress. Eva, her foui-
year-old daughter, was still sleeping when
the mother entered the bed chamber Lifting
the axe above the sleeping child,
the maniac mother bought it swiftly down,
splitting the little ones head open,
killing her instantly. She then attacked
Rufus, aged thirteen, dealing him savage
blows on the head with the poll of the ak.
BESSIE, the eleven-year-old daughter, begged
Tor mercy. but the terrible, blood-stained
ak whirled in the air and went crashing
into the fragile little head. The
eighteen-year old daughter then locked the
baby in an adjoining room and ran scream
ing outside, to apprise her father of the
awful work within. After terrible struggle
the woman was secured. One of the child
rem is cead and the others are likely TO die
before morning.
Mrs. Smith IS herself in precs.ious condi-

IN .Onger Terms for congressman.

Special 10 the oens,nel.
WASHINGTON, April 25.-'There are too
frequent changes in the representatives to
Congress, said prominent gentleman to a
Sentinel correspondent to-day. There is
too much politics in our system OF Govern
ment. No man with less than three terms
in Congress can hope to become familiar
with the necessary wants Of the
country, to make him at ell valuable
as a legislator. This constant changing of
members has done more to hinder and pre-
vent wise legislation than the people have
any idea of. / do not believe in keeping
men in public Office too long, but do think.
so long as a man conducts himself properly
and is true to the interests he is elected to
represent he should be accorded at least
service of ten years Senators are elected
tor six years, and in the majority OF cases
they have been given a second term. When
men are elected for one or two terms, and
always in doubt as to the future nomination
or election, they restrict their labors to Just
such legislation as, in their opinion is of the
most interest to the district represented.
'In the present Congress there are not
t. exceed ten men who take the
least possible interest in any bill
of public or general legislation. The rash

priations to the district are in nine cases out
of ten the extent of the work performed by
the average Representative. | know where
votes have been cast against the most Just
and meritOrious measure simply because it
did not happen to be of benefit to the di>-
trict of the person so voting.
And so itgOes, for much selfshness ex-
its. If men are given longer terms in Con-
gress, more attention and better service will
be given to the important necessities of legis-
lation in which the whole coua airy is inter
ested
who has taken any part in the long dis
cussion on the River and Harbor bill. except
those representing districts where APP
preparations are to be made? In
this every one wants the amount
for his district increased and that OF Others
lessened. Here is bill voting away mil
lions, and not voice is raised for or against
the bill, other than.those who hope to build
higher their own political fortunes, and at
the expense OF the Government.

is in the legislative and not executive de-
partments.''
