those galleries reserved for the President
and his friends and for the diplomatic
corps, wero filed with spectators and the
bright dresses of the ladies formed brilliant
frame to the picture presented on the floor
below. The roll Of members was then
called, and the hum Of conversation broke
out afrcsh. During the progress Of the call
Mrs Cleveland entered the executive gal
lery and became an attentive spectator.
The call developed the presence Of go
members, there being eighty eight absontccs.
On motion of Mr., Mills, Of Texas, q rcsolu-
ion was adopted directing the Clerk to in

his superintendent, vouchsafed the infor-
nation that inasmuch rs no definite
knowledge had come TO them OF Mr..
Reeds intention 10 chloroiorm the dog,
they would not deem themselves justified
in taking any action. "Nor would we,
probably" he continued, "even il we
knew that the chloroforming was to take
place. We approve In many instances of
putting animals out OF mental as
we'll as out Of physical agony. We
had n big Newfoundland dog here that
died simply and solely from a
broken heart, and we have known
of numberless instances where II would
have been far more kind 10 kill n pet
animal ut once instead of allowing il TO
linger and die Of mental grief. Even
canary birds go that way sometimes, and
10 remove them by painless death Is not
cruelty even TO our eyes. Besides, Mrs
Reeds dog may have been her pet for
years, and having grown old or become in
some way diseased and she kept him for
