Pearl Thoughts.

Anger and haste hinder good
counsel.
Ridicule dishonors more than
dishonor.
Experience is a torch lighted
in the ashes of our hopes and
decisions.
One ungreatful man does an
injury TO all who stands in need
Of aid.
Kindness is the only charm
permitted TO the aged; it is the
coquetry of white hair.
There is mo greater delight
than to be conscious of sinceri-
ty on determination.
Comparison, more than reali-
ty, makes men happy, and can
make them wretched.
We must consider humanity
as man who continually grows
old and always learns.
We should seek more of the
practical realities of every day
life and less Of the ethereal.
Wondrous is the strength of
cheerfulness altogether past
calculating its power Of endur-
ance.
1t is SO easy to mediate on a
far off heroism, so difficult TO
cut off a little self-indulgence
near at hand

A Change of Hnse.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-The Evening
Star states that Democratic senators say
that the presentation by Senator Allison
of the condition of appropriations and
the enlarged expenditures, followed by
the speech of Mr.. Sherman pointing out
the fact that the balance of trade is
against the United States, and that great
caution must be observed to avoid
financial disaster, indicate that the Re-
publieans are hesitating on their plan of
passing a tariff bill; that those speeches
We're designed to prepare the public
mind for such q change of plan. The
Republican senators are o inclined to
discuss the tariff situation very fully,
inasmnch as they propose to caucus upon
1t tonight, but some of them deny that
any change In the tariff programme is
contemplated. 1t is believed the caucus
will definitely determine the tariff legisla-
ton. Predictions that congress will soon
adjourn are heard, based no doubt upon
the impression that the Republicans will
determine to drop their tariff bill.

MINORITY REPORT Or TIE INvEs-
T1cATEoE coMMrrTEE.
MAJORITY CHARGES DENIED
rhe Report Asserts that the Ordinary
Rules and Methods of Conducting In
yestigations Were ~ou.rageously
vioIated-The Retaliation Bill.

WASHINGTON, Aug. *O.-The minority
report on the investigation of the govern
nent printing office was presented by Mr..
Gallinger. The report commences by
denying the charges of the majority that
the investigation was sought by the Re-
publicans II showing by record that
the investigation was proceeded with on
a resolution introduced by Mr.. Springer
OF Illinois. The report hen charges
specifically and at great length that the
ordinary rule and methods of conducting
investigations were so %flagrantly and
outrageously violated that the minority
at once openly protested and many
times seriously considered the propriety
of appealing to the house for re-
lief. The evidence of Public Printer
Benedict is spoken of as follows: "We
do not hesitate to say that no public off,
cial probably ever appeared to such poor
advantage on the witness stand as Pub
lie Printer Benedict. From the begin
ming to the end his testimony is a tissue
of evasions, misstatements and direct
falsehoods." The evidence as given is
then gone over in detail and most
fragrant charges are made against the
present incumbent, and that the testi-
mony does not warrant the majority
of the committee in condemning Mr..
Rounds in such bitter terms.

The Wilson Retaliation gi,,.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 80. = Chairman
Belmont was present this morning and
presided over The meeting of the house
committee Of foreign affairs. The sub.
committee reported q substitute for the
Wilson retaliatory bill to the full com
mittee. The committee, in reaching the
conclusion embraced in the substitute,
divided but once. The Republican mem.
bers% proposed to instruct the. department
OF state to notify the Canadian govern.
ment that the twenty-ninth article of the
treaty of 1871, relating to tr%ans-shipment
of goods, had been a%brogated,, and this
was voted down by the Democratic mem
bers. On the final adoption of the bill
there was a unanimous affirmative vote
of the committee. The committee re.
ported the bill to the house this after.
noon, and recommended that it. be taken
up for consideration next Saturday.

and the Situation More Critical.
NEW ORLEANS, La, Aug. 20. "A
special from Jacksonville to the Plea
yune says: The mornings list Of
twenty-one new cases, with 100 others
reported up to noon, has again sent the
people panic-stricken In every direction.
The train for the north was well filled
with refugees. The ~unfavorable weather
of the past week is now having its effect,
and it is feared the number of cases will
increase daily. The disease seems to be
assuming a violent type, and the people
are greatly alarmed. Kohn, Furschgat

remaining open, closed their store.
Grocery and drug stores are about
the only ones that are kept open.
The gravity of the situation
is o acknowledged by the most hope
full. September is always a bad month,
and it is thought there will be a big in
crease ii the number of cases during
that month. The day has been dark,
gloomy and rainy.

Speaker Carlisle's Unusual Action Unfavor

Speaker Carlisle's Unusual Action Unfavor-
ably Commented Upon.
WASHINGTON, Aug. S0.-The Star last
evening says that members of the house
military committee, and others interest
ed i'll the ordnance amendments to the
army bill are much provoked, some of
them highly indignant, at the action of
Speaker Carlisle in appointing two mem
bers OF the appropriations committee as
con1erees with Mr.. Townshend on the
army appropriation bill. 1t is very un-
usual TO appoint conferees from other
shan the committee in charge of the bill.
In thlS instance there was a conflict of
authority between the military and ap-
preparation committees, the senate nav
ing placed as an amendment to the army
Dill a provision for ordnance and fortiti-,
cations. Messrs. T~ownshend. Marsh and
Laird, from the military committee were
made the conferees to consult with the
senate committee. They agreed to re-
tain the amendments and the house re-
Jected their report and ordered a
new conference. 1t was expected,
as is the custom, that the same ~conferees
would be r~eappointed or, at least, that
the appointment would be from the mill
tary committee. Instead of following the
course Mr.. Carlisle has appointed Mr..
Sayres and Mr.. Ryan, of the appropria
lions committee, who were violently on
posed to the military COMMITTEES, 10 act
with Mr.. Townshend as conferees. This
is what has made the friends of the bill
mad. Mr.. Townshend, however, is
anxious to get the army bill disposed of,
as 1t is very important that the money
for the army should be provided for be-
fore the LIST of September, and he will
act with his two new colleagues in the
rejection OF the senate amendments.
The Notifications appropriation bill re-
ported by MI. Plumb from the commit
tee on appropriations, differs in material
respects from the bill as it came from the
house. The appropriations carried by
the bill are increased from 81, 625, 900 to
50, 322, 900, and there is a further pro-
vision under which So, 000, 900 additional
may be expended at a rate not exceeding
s ,OOO,0O0 per annum for the purchase
OF guns submitted by private firms or
persons, and found on test to be of value.
The first change made by the senate
committee was the insertion of a new
section providing that appropriations
made by the bill shall be expended under
the direct supervision of a board, to con-
sist of the commanding general of he
army, an officer of engineers, officer of
ordnance, and an officer of artillery. The
board is to be in all respects under the
control of the secretary of war,

LONDON, Aug. 80.-Rumors are begin
ming to appear again to the effect that
the marriage which the queen has APP
parently set her heart upon-that OF
Princess Victoria Of Germany to Prince
Alexander of B%attenburg, will soon be-
come an established fact. II is not likely
that If this report is true the princess
would or could run counter to her broth
er's, Emperor Williams wishes, but it is
stated the latter has now no decided oh
lection to the marriage, and that Prince
Bismarck does not consider that any
thing is at stake in the matter. If this
is true the marriage, the prospect of
which caused such a Juror only a short
time ago in German court circles, will
quietly take place probably at no distant
date
