Mr.. Heath's reply was calm, and
in measure that nothing else
could possibly have done served to allay re-
sentiment that had arisen from remarks
made in the forenoon speech. 1t was idle,
he said, for the gentlemen to carry the ques-
tion away from the real issue. There was
no question as to Republicanism involved
in the debate. The Senator from Aroos-
took was in error if he supposed that some
things said in reference to men who
had clutched power within the party were
said against the party. For the Republica
party, in its greatness and grandeur, Mr..
Heath had only sentiments of the greatest
reverence and attachment Continuing, he
said he had heard before coming into the
Senate chamber in the afternoon that what
he had said was to be turned against him
personally. But he said he had never sus-
pected that that attack would take refuge
behind the gray hairs of the Senator from
teok he had had only feelings of the highest
respect and it was with feeling of the keenest
sorrow that he Senator Heath had
heard from the Senator from Aroostook
words unkind and even insulting. Senator
Heath said he would yield to no man in
fealty to the Republican party, His father
was Republican soldier, and the bullet that
killed that soldier at Fredericksburg had
made the son Republican for ever, but that
did not mean that he must, in his political
conduct, submit TO dictation. He never had
so submitted in his whole political career,
and the Republicans Of the county Of Ken.
pebec had approved his course. He had
heard that he was to be read out OF the party
BY certain ones. That could not be done. He
was Republican, and simply because ne
carried his independence under his nat ne
should not be read out Of the party.

Mrs. DR.. Potts.

The opera house was crowded yes.
terday afternoon with an interested
audience of ladies, who probably de-
rived many useful hints and sound
practical knowledge of the female
anatomy as most clearly described,
and illustrated by the able lady doc
tor.
Mrs. DR.. Potts has a very pleasing
personality, aud her excellent advice
to her sex to "know myself" applies
not only to the intellectual mechan-
ism, but to the too often neglected but
much needed study of the human
frame, and the physical causes which
make or mar our lives.
This cultivated and agreeable little
physician and lecturess appeared
again at night to a large audience
and entertained them fully for two
hours. Her delivery is so rythmical
as 10 advance the impression that she
is reading poetry instead of deliver
ing a lecture on an hitherto consider
ed dry subject of hygiene, etc.
She lectures this evening again.

Death of Mr.. Bright.

LONDON. March 27.-John Bright
died at $50 o'clock this morning. His
end was peaceful and painless. He
had lain in comatose condition since
yesterday. All his family were pres
ent at his death bed. In the house of
commons today, VIM. H. Smith, the
government leader, with much emo
ton, referred to the death of Mr..
Bright. He said he would postpone
his remarks on Mr.. Bright until Fri
day, when Mr.. Gladstone would be
present. Mr.. Morley thanked Mr..
Smith for his consideration in regard
to Gladstone. Bright represented the
central division of Birmingham in the
house.

horse and buggy he borrowed from

charge of horse stealing will be made
against him. His wife, who is on the

FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH.
A Large Congregation Present |
Last Night.

Large congregation Present
Last Night.
Rev. J. w. Prestridge, the eloquent
minister from Hopkinsville, KY, who
has been called by the First Baptist
church to occupy their pulpit, has not
yet accepted the call. He delivered
a fine sermon last light to large
audience, mis- subject being Oman
swered Prayer" quoting from the
book of James, fourth chapter, third
verse, aye ask and receive not be-
cause We ask amiss.'
From these inspired lines he argued
that prayer is not always answered as
we would desire, but is answered
only as is good for US.
For some years the congregation of
the First Baptist church has fell in
hard lines. Since their original dis
Indignation some years ago over for
mer pastor, it has been hard to secure
one that could amalgamate the vari-
Gus cliques and factions that have come
up. Even the sanity Mr.. Gates,
so near the grave all the time of his
pastorate that his voice seemed to
come from the spirit land beyon d the
grave, had not the power to bring all
the strayed sheep into the fold, and
until the advent of Mr.. Prestridge
none have satisfied, though many
have been called. Last night not a
pew of the large church was vacant;
all were there and all were well
pleased with the new minister, and
now it only remains to say, if he is
pleased with them. He breaches
again this evening.

Doubtful, Very Doubtful.

1t is stated that several lawyers
have been looking into the quest ton
whether the failure of the city council
to meet in the early part of the year,
in accordance with the provision o
the charter that the council shall
meet at least once in each month, in
vaIidates the charter. The generA
opinion was that the clause was sim.
ply directory not mandatory, bu I
there was sufficient doubt about the
law as to make the question good
test case, if any one cared to bear its
expense. AS no one desires to do this,
it is likely that the matter will fall to
the ground.

The Waco ArteSian.

Hon. A. J. Evans who has recently
returned from Waco gives very clear
idea of the recent find of artesian
water in that city. The water was
reached at a depth Of 1872 feet and
rose with such force as to throw out
the heavy boring apparatus. The flow
Is constant, and as judged by Mr.
Evans, would fill two large barrels
every minute, or say from ninety 10
one hundred gallons. The well was
tubed to height of forty feet above
the exit from the ground, and rose to
the top of this tubing and flowed free
ly with an intermittent, squirting &C
ton. The tubing was taken down
and a cap forced on and the flow con-
tinues undated. The water is very
pure and is quite colorless. Its tenn
perature is about blood-heat, and it
holds considerable soda and some
alkali in solution. A very well de-
fined white deposit is left where the
water in it's flow borders upon the
ground and an analysis, by Trueheart
of Austin, shows three grains of soda
to the gallon. There is also adistinct
trace of alkali, showing that the water

but he does not see what they are
going to do with it.
