interests of the United States in Samoa
was referred to the committee on foreign
affairs and leave granted the committee
to report at any time.
The house then resumed the considera-
ton of the Smalls-E Elliott contested cleo

political status of the negro in the South,
ETC., ensued. The chief speech was made
by O'Ferrall of Virginia and was particle

been in progress some hours the question
OF limiting the debate came up and the
limit was fixed at six hours for each side

WASHINGTON, Feb. l2.-Among the
senate bills reported from committees and
placed OH the calendar was one to provide
for the enforcement of quarantine laws
and for the establishment of a national
board of health. The following house bill
was taken from the calendar and passed:
Granting right of way to the Pima Land
and Water company across Fort Lowell

senate then proceeded to executive bust
ness. Within five minutes all executive
business was transacted and legislative
business was resumed.

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. l2.-Politiclans
have discovered that Gen. Noble of St.
Louis, n of the leading attorneys of
that city, was among the cabinet POSSIBLE
tiles. He is named for attorney general.
What particularly recommends and rend-
els possible if not probable, the selection
OF Gen. Noble, is the fact that he is not
identified with any party faction in his
state. 1t is said hat the withdrawal of
Hon. John b. Henderson's name from
the list of cabinet possibilities was neces-
STATED largely upon that grounds.
Gen. Harrison had perhaps as many as
300 callers this afternoon, chiefly delegates
IN attendance at the third annual meet
ing of the Lincoln League of Indianapolis.

LOSING HIS GRIP.
Prince Bismarck Irritated by
Party Intrigues.
The Suit Against the "Kreus
Zeitung" Abandoned.
Russian Stocks Take a Drop on
War RumOrs.

BERLIN. Feb. l2.-Prince Bismarck's
attack of neuralgia is complicated with
rheumatism, renal disorder, want of ap-
petite and insomnia. He continues to
work against the advice of his doctor and
his visits to the chancellery are marked
with frequent outbursts of passion and
other evidences of extreme irritability.
Apart from his morbid physical condition
party imtrigues aiming to stop his influ-
ence with the emperor worry the chancel-
lor more than ever. Count Won Valdez
see, whom ultra Conservatives hope to
see succeed Bismarck at no distant day,
has scored against the chancellor by get
ting the emperor to assist in stopping the
action against the Rreus Zeitung.. A
court report says that when Bismarck
went to the schloss to protest that the ac-
ton must proceed he was kept waiting a
quarter of an hour in the ante chamber,
and that in a fit of violence and rage he
told Chamberlain Mirback that the delay
was an intentional insult arranged against
him and that the emperor fearing a broil,
left his room hurredly, apologrzed to the
chancellor and succeeded In calming him
and obtaining his assent to an abandon
ment of the prosecution. Bismarck, if in
sound health, would probably care little
for the enmity of the ultra Conservatives,
but he fears losing his hold over the lead
ers OF the government groups.

copper becoming Fashionable.

Copper is coming into fashion.
What do l meant Well, look at this
lot of canes and umbrellas that / have
just imported. You will notice that
each one of them has a piece of ordi-
nary copper wire around the handle.
Gold and silver has become so COM
mon as heads for these articles that
people demand something new for a
change, and you see the result before
you. Just now great simplicity is af-
fected in this respect, but | haven't
the slightest doubt that when this
metal becomes popular, as l believe it
will, we shall see very elaborate per
sonal ornaments made of it. Indeed,
l have often wondered why copper
was not more generally used as a ma
terial for ornaments. Its peculiar
color harmonizes perfectly with dark
materials and complexions, and it is
comparatively free from oxidization.
Barbarous2 Not a bit of it. True, the
a~borigines make use of copper to
adorn their persons, and in that they
show excellent Judgment. In matters
of taste we might frequently take les
sons from the savages. Jewellers

and mutilated in a terrible fashion, Nc
Carthy came off comparatively unscratched
while Upham was badly punished. but

is the apartment to which the unhappy
sufferer from infammatory rheumatism is
confined. If, ere the crisis is reached,
that fine preventive, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, is used by persons Of a rheumatic
tendency, much unnecessary suffering is
avoided. N~ervines, anodynes and soda
tives, while having hone but a specific
effect, are yet very desirable at times.
Yet can they produce no lasting effect
upon rheumatism, because they have no
power to eliminate from the blood the
rheumatic virus. Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters does this, and checks at the outset
a disease which, if allowed to gain head
way, it is next to impossible to dislodge
or to do more hal relieve. Rheumatism,
it should be remembered, is a disease with
a fatal tendency from its proneness to
attack the heart. a resort to the Bitters
should, therefore, be prompt. Dyspepsia,
kidney complaint, malaria and nervous
ness are relieved by it.
