CONGRESSIONAL FOLLY.

Congress has a wonderful facility for
making mountains out of mole hills and of
generating tempestS in teapots. Its adapt
ability to this kind of work was never better
illustrated than in the prominence that is
being given to Congressman WHEEL ER's
trade against the late EDWIN NJ. STANTON.
There is no necessity for the rumpus. In
the first place WHEELER made an ass of HIM
elf when he assalled the reputation of Mr..
STANTON. Whatever the weaknesses or
failings Mr.. STANTON may have pos
sessed as an individual. he will go down
into history as the greatest war minister
that America ever produced. And what
! ever criticisms may justly be made against
HIM or against his administration of the war
! department, Gen. WHEELER is not the man
to make them. A becoming sense of mod
esty would have dictated to the Alabama
congressman this fact So far as the ieal-
ouSieS which may have existed
between STANTON and MCCLELLAN
are concerned, it does no good
at this late day to discuss them. Both of
them were eminent in the service of their
country and both of them have gone to that
country where all things are evened up
! Therefore, while we may admire the vigor
displayed by the venerable Mr. KELLEY YES
terday in his castigation of the impudent
WHEELER, still we are forced to acknowl-
edge that he lowered his own dignity and
that OF the house by paying any attention to
the matter at all. What the people want is
that congress shall devote its attention to
legislation that is badly needed and let the
dead bury their dead.
OUR QUARRELSOME NEIGHBoR.
Canada is going to keep up the fishery
racket until she gets a downright good
walopping. The United States govern
ment has managed to keep in good humor
all along, and has aimed to adjust the
trouble without any further complications.
But the Canadian authorities are acting to-
ward our government with an insoIence
that no well-bred nation is going to stand
very long. 1t is almost around to the
'fifty-four, forty or fight" point now. The
United States is very forbearing nation,
but it is not always going to be snarled and
snapped at. If it is once provoked to lay
its mailed hand on Canada there will be no
more Canada after that. The northern
boundary of the United States will then be
somewhere up in the neighberhood of the
north pole.

of the day, and up to mid
night, a motley crowd is as
sembled. Many of the
loungers are awaiting trains
on which they will take their
departure, Many more are
waiting the arrival of friends

goodbye. Not a few are
there because they have
nothing else to do, and know
of no better loafing place.

In the early morning the good-natured in
dividual is not visible. Everybody appears
to be little ''out of sorts,'' and makes no
effort to conceal the fact. The passengers,
who arrive from to o'clock in the morning,
do not appear to the best advantage. They
are either faint and disgusted over their long
fast, or they are disgusted, if not actually
hungry, over their midnight breakfast. The
man or woman who is jolly at that hour of
the day will make a prize in the matrimoniaI
lottery, and should be gathered at once.
An empioye of the depot told me recently
That the only real self-satisfied person he ever
saw passing through the depot to catch one
OF the early morning trains, was young man
who, having been informed of the death of
his mother-in-law. was on his way to attend
her funeral. I don't know how the employe
ascertained the reason. Being married
man, he may have judged the happy traveller
by himself.

bride and groom who attracted even more at

m ems were of a unique character, and de-
served all the notice bestowed upon them by
the scores of passers-by.

at his recent union with the object of his

1cation. On the contrary, it was the species
that is a direct result of too many and too
thirsty visits at an everyday saloon. He
staggered along while hanging to his arm was
a young woman decked out in white with an
orange blossom wreath about her head. She
ooked as happy as brides are expected to ap-
pear on their wedding days.
She was chewing gum and apparently did
not notice her husbands condition. Perhaps
she thought it was customary for husbands
to appear thus on such occasions.

"Chock full of snakes, amt it?' remarked
man on Bridge square, holding bottle in one

magnifying glasses, who had enlarged the

Sensational Attempt at Murder in
Galveston. Tex.

Galveston. Tex.
Special to the Globe.
GALVESTON, Tex, June S.-A sensa-
tional and shocking affair occurred in this
city about 5 o'clock last evening, when
Hon. James B. Stubbs attempted to kill
John K. Brotherson, young man in the
employ of the Waters-Pierce Oil company.
The attack took place near the entrance to
the Waters-Pierce warehouse, on Bates
avenue. 1t seems that something had oc-
Cured to seriously disturb the Stubbs
family, for Theodore Stubbs, the father of
the ex-senator, had arrived some moments
before and was standing outside in earnest
and excited conversation with young Broth
erson, when the senator suddenly appeared
ON the scene. His face was perfectly blood
less from intense rage and excitement. He
hurriedly approached his father and Broth
erSon, and. without uttering a word, drew
his revolver and opened fire on the latter,
who
FLED PRECIPITATELY
into the warehouse and drew the iron doors
between him and his frenzied antagonist.
Wild with excitement the senator was de-
termined upon storming the warehouse. but
his father and two other gentlemen rushed
upon him and safter an exciting struggle
disarmed him. He fought like tiger.
They threw him down in the sand and dust,
and while wrenching the weapon from his
grasp it went off, and the bullet came near
striking his father. Friends hurried him
away from the scene. while young Brother
son made his escape from a rear door.
BrOtherson is first cousin to the wife of Mr..
Stubbs, and rumor has it that the difficulty is
the outcome of domestic troubles. Mr.. Stubbs
is one of the leading attorneys of Galveston,
has been city attorney, and for years past
has been regarded as one of the shrewdest
politicians in this part of Texas. He has
the sympathy of a very large circle of
friends. 1t is feared another encounter
may take place, and efforts to prevent this
are now being made.t1 Brotherson is
youngish-looking man, about "a years of
age, has always gone in good society and
stands well in this community. Mr.. Stubbs
is the fidus Achates of Congressman Crane,
and in political matters it is generally un-

A CHASTITY Find.

For some time past the Government
snagboat Seller has been operating along
the upper Sacramento river, pulling stumps,
old trees and branches from the stream,
they having been carried down by high
waters and lodged at various points. The
snags are drawn out after every flood, in
order TO secure safe navigation. Yes erday
afternoon, while working a short distance
above Mcintosh Landing, the boat grap-
pied with the top of an old tree that pro-
truded from the water, and stout tug
brought it to the surface As the old tree
tioated out and the limbs were plainly
seen, the men on the boat were Mortified
to see a human skeleton tied TO a limb.
Closer inspection revealed the fact that
the skeleton was secured by chain, which
had evidently been taken from harness-a
trace-chain. On the feshless feet were
heavy boots of old-stvle make-the kind
which early-day miners we're in the habit
of wearing. The hands of the skeleton
were fastened to the back by smaller
chain. 1t is presumed that the remains
are those of horsethief, sluice- robber or
murderer. who was no doubt hanged by
the order of Judge Lynch. This is I'M
deubtedly correct, as the chains lead to
that belief. After the hanging, the crimi-
nal had been left dangling from the tree
which finally fell and was carried down
the stream by high waters. The bones
were taken to the bank of the river and
decentlg buried in a box.-Chico Chronicle,

they might be mailed to San Francisco.

teIegraphing the document. The Gov

mass of mankind, thus really did service

that the profession of journalism has
