Since Mrs. Cleveland became the
Presidents wife she has had to wear
gloves two sizes larger than she wore
before she was married. Her left
hand is very little if any larger, but
the right hand which has done 50
much shaking in its official capacity,
is noticeably larger than the other,
aud she recently told Il friend that it
was impossible for her to wear her old
number in gloves. The same prOba-
bly, is true OF the President, but as
men wear their gloves 50 much looser
than women, he might not know il by
that means. but Il he compares his
two hands he will see the difference

Now we must somewhat charge it
to Frankie's own fault that the mus.
Gle of her right hand has SO developed.
No amount OF delicate hand shaking
would effect this. She has squeezed roo
much. However. those very squeezes
may have won friends enough to turn
the election.

The senate then, at 1910 o'clock, re-
| summed the consideration of the tariff bill.

Mr.. Allison said that the Finance Com

Yer ore should bO exempted from duty.

months, and so on. Yet that was
just the method followed by the
Government in connection with this
work OF internal improvement. lie
called special attention TO the two
works in his district at Galveston and ut
Arkansas Pass, and sketched the im-
portance TO the great region OF county
west OF the Mississippi River OF the COM
pletion Of these works. At tho present
ratio of appropriation they would not be
completed for thirty years and Tor that
time the people Of the West would have
to wait before they could ship their sur
plus products abroad by way OF a port in
Texas. Ii was an absolute waste of money
TO make the present driblet appropria-
tons. The plan which he would like to
see adopted was TO have board OF en-
ginees TO determine on certain places
where all the money should DC expended
till the work was completed. lie would,
at the proper time, offer us a substitute
for the measure practically the same bill
which had passed at the first session OF the
present Congress, although personally he
would prefer to pass a bill appropriating
exactly the sum estimated by the Chief
OF Engineers With plethoric treasury
with no prospect OF the passage OF n tariff
bill: with the people anxious for Il river
and harbor bill; with the Chief OF En-
gineers declaring that his estimates were
right, lac appealed 10 the House 10 adopt
the proposed substitute.
Mr. blanchard said that the gentleman
from Texas occupied the unique position
Of opposing river and harbor bill be-
cause the aggregate amount carried was
not large enough. 1t had previously been
opposed because II appropriated too large
an amount. lie sympathized with the
gentleman from Texas in the position he
had taken. lie, himself, would like to
see larger amount appropriated every
year than It was found practicable 10 APP
propriatc. The gentleman theory was
beautiful but impmcticable. II the com
iniltce had brought in n bill OF 81, $4,000
it could not have been enacted into law.
The result would have been that Calves
ton, instead of getting $500, 900 would not
have got dollar.
Mr.. Sowden declared that Of the nppro.
priaiions previously made for rivers and
harbors, nearly S23.0D0O1O remained un-
expended, aud lac opposed tho further APP
preparation Of Sl2,0OO,00O.
MIR. Adams, of Illinois, said that the
gentleman from Texas was right in saying
that n large amount should be appropri-
aled, and that the gentleman from Louis
lana was right in saying that larger bill
would not be practical legislation, because
il would have no chance Of passage. Tho
trouble was in tho system OF appropria-
tons. Congress should create board OF
public works, whose recommendations
should DO subject TO the criticism Of Con-
grcss and the appropriations should be
made in bulk
Pending further debate the committee
rose. Adjourned.

So That feature he regarded ~ a dead
letter because IL required something ut

changed almost daily. These changes
were made necessary by the changes in
water rates, which his company were oh.
