SENATOR'S TALK
On the Outcome of I his Muss and
Middle.

Feeling ran high at the Merchants
yesterday. There was a decided jocu-
larity noticeable among the supporters
of Sabin, and corresponding despond-
ency perceptible among the Washburn
men. They confessed that the situation
was becoming somewhat complex.
What to do and how to do it were ques-
tiOns they could not readily answer.
The situation of affairs in the house,
they feared, would react against Gen.
Washburn, but the success of their test
vote in the senate tended to prop their
dropping spirits. 1t was conceded by
many that Washburn would carry the
senate at the evening session Gas he did,
as upon the bribery charges the opinion
of senators was very much diversified.

ator Compton had Of the report Of the

mentary of Senator Day.
''Pll tell you that we are getting

marked Senator Ward. ''We have had
d. M. Sabin before US this afternoon,
and Bill Washburn and Donnelly will
have to come tomorrow. We shall have
the whole d lot, even if it takes us a
month to do it. 1t will be made as hot

He had with him large bundle of
of additional testimony taken before
the committee that afternoon. The

In the very face of the grim destroyer is an

CURED at the City and County hospital, and
which was related to a Chronicle reporter

Some months ago TWO consumptives in the
last stages of the disease lay dying on cots in
close proximity to each other Both victims
were sports who by dissipation had contract
ed phthisis in its most aggravated form. One
was known as Bill Cunningham, young
gambler, who had enjoyed the reputation
among his class OF being reckless bettor on
the turn of card. The other was an Eng
Ish sailor named Staples, whose sole passion
was to wager whatever he possessed in SUD-
port OF any opinion which he might express.
The nature Of the men, in this particular at
least, was identical, and both recognized each
other in sense as brothers in misfortune.
As they lay on their cots, haggard and hollow
eyed and gasping for breath, they daily
wasted the remnant of their vital forces in
Danterlng one another about their appear

West Hastings had not returned from

something in the papers she might not

The opera season would not begin I'M

some costumes and rehearse some new

kind to him at last, for nothing could
have been more delightful than his after
Moons at Helen's. Though neither Rush
nor Helen were sentimental, as the term
is usually interpreted, they were both
very fond of poetry. Rush had read
more than she had, and it was his delight
to lead Helen through this path of liter
AZURE. She was devoted to Mrs. Brown
ings sonnets from the Portuguese. Rush
had gone through that phase, and led
her on to the sonnets of Shakespeare and
of Dante. The latter they read in the
original, Helen reading and Rush asking
questions when he did net quite under
stand the Italian. 1t really was an ideal
time, and Rush, being uncertain of the
future. wished that it might last indef-
nitely. But of course this wasn't to be
expected. 1t was soon over, and poetry
gave way to contracts. Mr. Maxmann's
visits growing mere frequent as Rush's
grew more rare.
However, Rush found himself at Hell
ems house as often as he could hope to
be there. 1t really seemed as though he
was necessary to her. His attentions
were constant, but not annoying, and
