SENATE.-The senate passed the bill ratify-
ing the agreement made with the upper and
middle bands of Spokane Indians the Cnur
d'Alene the Pend 'OreilIes and the Kooten-
ais in Washington, Idaho and Montana.
4 This bill really ratifes four separate agree
& msnts, but as the provisions were almost
Mythical, and as they consolidated seven of
Ykaboye mentioned bands of Indians, they
are all put into one bill.
The deficiency bill as reported by the SEN
ate committee carries $4,51S,862. 1t came
from the house with $3,227,51S. Among
matters added by the senate is $150 for
Uuited State District Attorney Baxter of
Minnesota for services in the case of Beau
lieu VS.. Sheehan.
HousE-Democratic representatives of the
house, notwithstanding the action or thenon-
action OF the caucus the other night, persist
in the statement that speedy adjournment
of congress is not only probable but certain.
The house refused, 80 to IT, to agree to
the conference report on the sundry civil ap-
preparation bill.

Corruption Mt Alaska.

Chester seeber, formerly United States com
missioner for Alaska at Ounalaska, sent TO
the house committee on merchant marine
letter concerning the Alaska company
and the seal fisheries which the committee
now has under investigation He claims
that the company uses the power of it's con-
tract with the government to monopolize the
whole trade of Western Alaska to Cypress
the inhabitants of that country land to re-
tard it's development.
All commerce with this part of Alaska'''
ne says, lis done through the rivers and
Benrlng sea at the instance of the company.
and any vessel found there is searched and
any furs which it may be found to contain.
IN whatever manner obtained are seized and
SOLD. This prevents trade with the country
anu results IN most cases in irreparable loss
MI Seeber also accuses the company of
1reezlng out competitor by raising the
prices OF skins above the London price, and
lowering them again when the competitor
had been driven from the field.
The company, he says, prevents the de-
Velopment of the adjacent country by dis
coufag1ng prospectors and miners and re-
fuslng to sell them food when they are in
need.
The letter was read before the committee
Mr. Mcintyre, superintendent of the company,
sald that the company had paid rather
nigh price for furs when a rival appeared in
oiie ieid, W ne uhouSnUE Gnls legitimate. He
said that seebef owed the company $4,000
for rent and money borrowed when he left it's
employ.

The Quick or the Dead .

1t is singular hut certain fact that q
fly when drowned can be brought back
to life. The method is very simple,
but requires particular and strict at
tnnt.on. If our readers doubt we would
advise them to study the following
recipe carefully and try it:
When the fly is dead take it from tho
water and roll it in table salt until it is
completely covered Allow it to re-
main thus FIR about three or four min.
utes. Remove the salt by blowing it.
Do not attempt to rub or pick it off,
or you may send the poor harmless fly
into eternity forever. When the salt is
of, take the fly in the palm of one hand,
cover it with the other, and shake it as
the boys do pennies when playing
heads and tails. Place the fly on the
table and he will either walk or fly
away, or perhaps crawl up the wall to
the ceiling and into the pretty parlor
of the coaxing spider, unless it has
been informed by older acquaintance
that by so doing it is passing the val
ley of the shadow of death. --Nel0 York

taken in all faith as those which will
prevail next October and afterwards.
The outlines of the late fall and early
winter garments are already fixed def

And here Nora laid her face down
among the clover and cried, not wildly
and boisterously, but patiently and
YEARLY, until finally, worn out with
emotion, she fell into an easy slumbcr
which grew sweeter and sounder, until
finally she dreamed.
She dreamed that she was back in
her old home, that everything WINS just
| as it used to be. She saw her mother
in her short gown and petticoat trot-
ting about as usual. hunting for stray
bits of dust on her spotless belongings,
saw her father at work about his little
farm, saw her sick sister, with her two
orphan children. and last and sweetest
of all, she saw Dcrmot.
He came walking mp the lane with
his elastic, strong steps, and she felt
! her heart beat with delight as he came
and took her hands in his. and bent his
handsome dark eyes full into hers.
And then they walked along the path
that led down to meadow and orch

over their future.

Sir Walter Raleigh and the Queen.

Bad weather held London in its
strong grip and as her Majesty's state
chair had been sent to the chair shop
to have new seS of springs put in, it
became necessary for the Queen to walk
to Parliament, to leave her rig liar
| morning order for the state executioler
The gallant Raleigh, who was at that
time occupying the exalted station of
Escort Extraordinary and Gold-Stick
in-Waiting to the Queen, i'll accordance
with the duties of his office, offered his
arm to Elizabeth, and the twain, pre-
coded by six trumpcters, and followed
hy three pieces of artillery AMI thous-
and small boys, set out in tho pouring
rain. As umbrellas had not been in
vented ut that period, Raleigh shell
tered himself from the torrent beneath
the waterproof ruff her Majesty wore
about her neck, while Elizabeth was
granted the sole satisfaction for the
soaking she received by ordering the
clerk of the weather to the block. The
journey passed. without incident worthy
of notc until the party reached the cor
her opposite the Parliament buildings,
whore it was found that mud-puddle
OF extraordinary dimenSiOnS-a puddle
worthy of the Elizabathan age had
gathered unto itself the larger part of
the street..
"By my halidom," quoth the Queen,
"but this paddle hath extraordinary
depth! Methinks 'twera well that we
return, and defer the executions until
the morrow
Not so, my liegess," sud Raleigh,
turning to one of his rotainers and
selling his cloak; "'twere better far
that my friend here should sacrifice his
habit to thy necessity. Never shall it
be said that while II Raleigh stood by,
the Queen of England was baked of
her determination or wet her ankles in
pursuit of her ambition"
Saying which, the courtier threw his
retainers cloak upon the surface of the
puddle, and her Majesty, stepping
lightly upon it, reached the other side
without wetting her feet. Elizabeth
never forgot Raleigh's gallantry; but as
for the retainer who lost his habit, he
likewise lost his head for saying in the
Queens hearing that, "since Raleigh
had so many bad habits, he thought it
hard that he should lose his to demon

Orr, of New York, the winner The
contestant who took second place was
the victor at Cincinnati, August l, +.
E. McGurrin, of Salt Lake. Miss
Orr's record was 9S7 words in ten min

utes. Miss Orr is proprietor of one of
the most fiourishing copying houses in
New York City. Her income averages
$4,000 to s., 900 per year. Her special
ty is taking dictation: direct on the ma,
chine from prominent court stenogra-
pliers, and she is able to write as
rapidly as the average reporter can
read his notes. Both used the same
machine. McGurrin keeps his hand
stationary and moves only his fingers,
oil of which are utilized The range
of each finger thus being limited, he
can strike any letter without looking
for it. In fact he can write almost as
well blindfolded as with his eyes open.

FIFTEEN years ago all Europe was in
q state of excitement because of the
gigantic forgeries committed upon the
Bank of England. These forgerics
sometimes ran up as high as $4,000 a
day and were kept up for period of
three months. 1t was estimated that
the bank was out $5,OOO,OOO by the OPP
erations of the forger3. The principal
actor in these transactions was George
Bidwell. His accomplices were Austin
Bidwell, brother, now at Chatham
prison; Edwin N. Hills, now at Port
land prison; and George Mcdonald,
now in Portland prison. George and
Austin Bidwell belonged in East Hart
ford, Conn, and Mcdonald was from
Canada. August 20, 1873, this quar-
tette of forgers were s-ntenced to i'm
prisonment. for life, after five months
of investigation and tlial ut the "Old
Bailey" in London. George Bidwell
was in Newgate, PentonvilIe and Mill
bank prisons. July IS, 1887, af .er an
imprisonment of nearly fifteen years.
he was granted "ticke5 of leave" "
partly conditioned on his leaving En-
gland. He arrived in New York August
4, 1887, went to his home in Fest Hart
ford, anl has since been engaged in
writing book, frankly detailing his
course of life, at first upright, the sub
sequent temptations, and the final step
that led him to commit the forgerios.
He is now 55 years old. In a recent
interview he said his look was not t.
make crime attractive, but to picture
it SO that lesson might be taught
these who were tempted to do wrong,
and young business men kept from tho
path THAT leads to II living tomb.

pocket and IN silence handed her mis-.
tress her fathers letter. A few mo.
ments sufficed to show that for all these
seven years faithful, self sacrificing
Nora had been sending almost the
whole of her wages to her parents, in
Ireland, who would have starved but
for her.
Mrs. Satterlee broke down and threw
herself first into her good husbands
arms and then into Nora's, like the i'm.
paSsionCd little woman she was, and
the two women, one mistress ahd the
other servant, cried together, for they
knew that they must separate. Nora's
duty now lay mt home in Ireland, as it
had kept her in this country, and
though she felt as If she was suffering
loss that could never be repaired,
Mrs. Sattcrlee helped Nora with all her
heart, so that she should go to her
h me at the earliest moment and as we'll
dressed as she could be prevailed upon
to dress.
Thanks to her associations, Nora was
in every way as ladv-like in her man
ner as any physician could desire his
wife to be. And Dermot was n proud
and happy man when his precious,
faithful Nora was in his arms.
The poor old parents, and the whole
of her acluaint ,nces, indeed, were the
sharers in the little heritage Nora had
received, but it seems as if the four
leafed clover has not yet lost its virtues,
for the whole tribe, even to the seventh
cousin, have prosperel since Nora came
back to Ireland.
Dermot believes with Nora that there
was really something supernatural about
| the manner in which she received that
wonderful talisman, and they preserve
| it rcligiously; and Dermot repeats, ms
she dreamed he did: None but the
pure in heart and the unselfish in pcr.
pose can ever find it," And surely Nora
deserved his praise, even as she did the
gift.

or to give graceful outstanding effect.
The best rule to follow, therefore, is
for each woman to decide for herself
just how much or how little Of hustle
she will Wear, and in coming to de-
cision she should be guided by a con-
sidcration of her own figure. If she is
rather slim she may affect an aesthetic
limpness of draperies, which from an
artistic point of view is pleasant
enough but if she is at all inclined to
freshness, it is more than likely that
she absolutely requires hustle in or
