WASHINGTON, Sept, l6.-The senate
bill passed for the relief OF Admiral $. p.
Carter,
On motion Of Carter of Montana the
senate amendments were concuIred'in to
the house bill authorizing the secretary OF
the interior to submit the proposal for
the sale of the western part of the Crow
Indian reservation in Montana. The
house thep proceeded to the consideration
of the Enloc resolution relative to Ken
nedy $ speech. It directs the clerk to
communicate to the senate that the house
reprobates and condemns Keunedy's
language as unpar,iamentary. The pend
ing question was on the point of order
against the resolution raised by Grosyenor
of Ohio.
Blount Of Georgia, in arguing the
point, recalled the Brooks Sumner epi
sode, and cited tie action of the house in
that case. Whenever a member of this
body arraigned a senqtof as a felon and
traitor by reason OF his conduct in regard
TO legislation, there could be no question
but That the character of the house was
assailet. lie tBlount) was not here to
vlndicate the character of the senator

Investigate whether or not the charges
made by the Nl3leman from OHIO we're
true or not, but The question of tie char
acter and dignity OF the house was one
with which the members had something
70 do and for which the people would
hold them TO rigid responsibility.
The oh air nVa. ruiad tba mint &c ,rlar
BaYne of pennsylvania offered y resolu
ton referring the Euloe resolution, to-
gether with Kennedy's speech, to the
committee on Judiciary, with Instructions
TO report within three days.
Cannon of Illinois favored the refer
ence of the resolution to the committee

gently. In the present form OF the reso

Objectionable portions) would be expunged
from the record If it were adopted the
speech would he expnnged. while the
most Questionable part of it cited by the
gentleman from tennessee (Enlor) would
remain as part of his remarks.
Enloe suggested that the gentleman
from Illinois was hardly the person to
make IT affections on another persons un-
parliamentary language.
This led to a brief personal c~olloquy
between Cannon and McMillen and
Enloe. After further debate Enloe de-
manded the previous question upon his
resolution. which was so modified as to be
an expression on the part OF the house

1t is with no ordinary feeling of sor-
row that The Alta offers tribute to the
memory of n of its Oldest and most
faithful employees, Charles G. Hughes,
who had been connected with this paper
for nearly forty years. He came to The
Alta a young man, almost in the first
flush of youth, and he grew old and gray
in its service. At the time of his death
he was foreman of The Atlas press
room, a position which he had filed I'M
iuterruptedly since 1857 but for several
years prior to hat time he had rendered
faithful service in the same department
of this paper. He was n man whose
sterling worth commanded the respect
and won the affection of all who knew
him.-San Francisco Alta.

The birch is capable of supporting a
much greater degree of cold than N
other tree. In the Old World its north
ern limit is II dogs. upon the west
and G3 dogs. upon the east coast; III
America its northern limit is "a dogs.
upon the west and So degs. upon the
east. In Germany the highest elevation
at which it is found is $500 feet above
the level Of the sea; in Sweden at 3 300
feet and in Lapland at Lee feet. 1t is
worthy Of remark that this tree decreases
in size not only as it advances toward
the north, but also as it proceeds south
ward beyond the limits of its native re-
gion. 1t attains its highest perfection
and greatest height in Germany and
southern Sweden. The birch is not par
ticular in its choice of soil or situation,
and will grow almost equally well in
sandy, rocky, dry or damp soil.-London

Last week n negro killed a monster
r~attlesnake six miles this side of Clover
Valley, on the Union Pacific extension
from Milford. The only weapon which
the darby had was in the form of earth
clods, but be succeeded in crushing out
the life of the RATHER. and upon examin-
alton found the snake to measure ten
feet in length, with n~inety-six rattles
and a button on the lateral extremity.
This wonld give an almost phenomenal
age TO the snake, making it about 100
years old. The skin and rattles have
been taken north to Salt Lake, whence
they will be shipped to the east.-Beaver

The Effects Of Mental E,baus,ioD.

Many diseases, especially those of the
nervous system, are the products of daily
renewed mental exhaustion. Business
avocatious often involve an amount of
mental wear and tear very prejudical to
physical health, and the professions, if
arduously pursued, are no less destructive
to brain and nerve tissue. 1t is one Of
the most important attributes of Hos
letter Stomach Bitters, that it compen-
safes Tor this undue loss of tissue, and
that 1t lmparts new energy to the brain
and nerves. The rapidity with which it
reuews weakened mental energy and
physical vitality is remarkable, and shows
that its ~inyigorating properties are Of the
highest order. Besides increasing
vital stamina, and counteracting the
effects of mental exhaustion, this poten-
tial medicine cures and prevents fever and
ague, rheumatism, chronic dyspepsia and
constipation, kidney and uterine weakness
aud other complaints. Physicians com
mend it rs a msdicated stimulant and
remedy.

ravaged so terribly. There is no fear of

The duck is more th!ckly covered with
feathers than the hen, and is therefore
more subject to the effects of heat on
very warm days. They are sometimes
affected by sunstroke and die in a few
minutes. Ducks have but few diseases,
but they will thrive only under proper
conditions. They must have some kind
of shade in summer to protect them
from the direct rays of the sun.-Chris-

juice of fruit is in fact injurious to them,
and they do not attack sound fruit but
only bruised fruit or that which has
been previously injured by other insects.

Merely a low price is not an evidence Of
cheapness in merchandise, and quotations
Of clothing prices are of all things most
deceptive. We do not keep what is called
cheap clothing. We always have some
garments for men and boys at low prices;
but we get them by marking down the
broken lots and slow selling lots of good
quality. These bargain garments adver-
tise themselves. If you want a serviceable
Overcoat, Suit or odd Coat, Vest or pair
of Trousers for very little money, we can
usually supply much better value than
the price asked would buy in the regular
way. Most people, however, want the
best clothes they can afford to wear, and
n rightly-made garments are intended
to supplant the custom work. Therefore
you aunot Judge OF the prices without
seeing the clothes.

Homicide at Ann Arhor.

ANN ARBoR, Oct. 17.-Albert Pierce,
who keeps horse-breaking stable at the
fair grounds in this place, had occasion to
discharge an employee named Fred Frank
the other day. Augustus Pierce, the en-
ployer's son, as was his habit, went down TO
the stables about eight o'clock this evening
to enclose the stock. Coming around the
corner of the building he was met by Frank
who Immediately assaulted him with a
neck yoke. Young Pierce caught the
weapon in its descent. whereupon Frank
pulled revolver ana shot him, the bullet
taking effect il the Immediate vicinity of
the nagcl. Seeing what had been done
Frank too: flight. However the young
lads cries soon brought TO his aid the assist
anoe Of the neighbors, who carried him to
his home. A doctor was Immediately sESa>
moned and pronounced the wound fatal.
Frank is Is years old, about the same age
as young Pierce, and although they have
had several quarrels, it is probable tina. the
former was seeking revenge for his dis
charge and took it upon the one Of the fam
lily who came in his way first. Frank has
not yet been captured although tho police
are on his trail.

The Syracuse Trapedy.

The magnificent Leland hotel at SYRIA
cuse, n. Y, the most modern and best
equipped hotel in central New York, is
now nothing but mass of ruins, The fire
broke out early on the morning Of Oct. 10Th
and very quickly reduced the fine building
to ruins. The first reports stated that
great many-twenty-fv or thirty-lives
were lost, but it has since been learned
that not more than seven or eight persons
perisl d in the flames. Tho list Of the
dead so far as known includes Carrie Cum
mings of New York, aged %; William E.
Harrop of Elizabeth, N. j., aged 80; Rose
Schwary. hotel domestic. aged %, and
Bridget Doyle of Marcellus, % yeare old.
Other hotel servants are missing and I'VE
supposed TO have persisted.
A large number Of persons were injured
by jumping from windows, some of them
so badly that they cannot recover.
Cora Tanner. the actress, was in the
hotel and was slightly injured in making
her escape.
The building cost about $50, 000 and was
leased by Van Buren, Leland and Warren
Leland jr., who on the 18th OF May. 1855,
opened the hotel. when 4, 500 invited guests
were present. The building was owned by
the Everston estate. A rough estimate of
the loss is s2l5. 700, with insurance Of
about $3.50. 900. The Lelands' loss will be
about $50, 900. The loss of the American
express company is estimated at 81, 500,
and of the Curtiss manufacturing company
SIS, 900, both fully insured.
