WASHINGTON. May 9.-Hill of Illinois
called up the bill granting a pension of
$l,20) a year to Della T. s. Parnell,
daughter Of Admiral Charles Stewart
Parnell, with the amendment reducing
the pension to $50 Der M m tn. After
discussion the amendment was agreed to
81 to 26-and the bill passed.
The house then went into committee
Of the whole on the tariff bill.
Fitch Of New York spoke against the
bill.
Gear OF Iowa. member of the commit
tee on ways and means. said the old pro
verb, Scratch a Russian and you will
find a Tartar, " might be applied to the
Democrats for, if the flimsy pretenses
were scratched of, a Democratic free
trader would he found. In 1883 the peo-
pie had rendered their verdict. He
favored protection tor any article that
was produced in this country. If the
United States could produce sugar in
sufficient quantities to supply domestic
wants he would foster it by fair protec-
ton, but he believed that it was impossi-
BILE. He was convinced that the United
States must look to other countries for
her sugar. He commended that the sugar
schedule of the bill would be a blow at
the sugar trust.
McMilln inquired how 1t was that
sugar trust securities had such a phenom-
email rise recently.
Gear suggested that the pending bill
rave refineries protection of four-tepths
of a cent, while the Mills bill gave them
one cent.
McMillin replied that the pending bill
gave them free raw material. It was evil
dent from the rise IN sugar trust securities
that the trust would not be hurt by this
bill.
Gear, continuing, expressed his opposi
ton to any trust or combine formed to
enhance the price OF the necessaries of
life. The time had come for the Ameri-
can congress to put an end to the sugar
combine by passing the pending bill.
This bill gave the people cheap raw sugar
and cheap refined sugar and destroyed
the root and branch of the greatest com
bine known to the country-a combine
which might be called the American
devilfsh. which had been devouring the
substance Of the people for almost a CEN
tury.
Crisp didn't believe that to the manu-
facturer protection had been a beneficial
system. As to the laborers in mauufac-
turing establishments, as to farmers
throughout the land, he felt sure the
system had been injurious. The system
drove out competition. 1t diminished
the number Of producers Of a given ar
tlcle and increased the ease aud facility
with which they could combine to elevate
prices. The majority of the ways and
means committee, said Crisp, continuing.

It's Superior Cloth
ing at the Price.

Business gathers in the long
run to the best merchant. No
doubt about that.
But who is he? how is he to
be got at9 Why to him?
Because people are always
seeking the best in clothing
not the worst; the reliable, not
the unreliable.
Let them but once make
sure that a store keeps none
but reliable clothing, and its
prices the lowest that honest
qualities can be bought at, and
that store will prosper. No
doubt it will.
That's the policy Wana-
maker & Brown adopt, and to
push their standard up high
and clear of any question or
entanglement,we say-We are
not asking your confidence on
cheap prices for unreliable
goods, but. just prices for de-
pendable clothing.
We manufacture it, and by
everymethod that our long ex-
perience has made apparent,
we seek to infonn you Just
what you are buying-by slips
in the pockets, BY opportunity
for return of the goods, and by
a guarantee of the quality.
Nothing but superior clothing
will stand such fair dealing.

AN IMMENSE TURTLE CRoP.
Large Numbers Captured Daily By Sports

Large Numbers Captured daily by sport1-
men Mt kittnnning.
ESPECIAL TKLEeRAh TO THE pIsrArcHt
KITTANNING, August 3.-The turtle
crop here is an unbounded success, in direct
opposition to the grain crop in many parts
of the county. The streams in which this
attractive game is captured have, for the
past month, been besieged almost daily by
sportsmen from this vicinity, and in every
case with the most gratifying re-
suits. From half dozen to two or three
dozen of the snappers have been brought in
by these parties, the weight of the luscious
mud fruit generally averaging from two to
ten pounds, though some have turned the
scale at Is, and even 25 pounds, The method
OF capture is usually with hooks, but the
gun is used sometimes, and favorite and
effective process, where the surroundings
will admit. is to dig a trench through dam,
drain the water and delve in the mud.
Though most OF these reptiles are said to be
exceedingly vicious and capable Of giving
dangerous wounds, yet fearless catchers
have been known TO wade with barred legs
all through these turtle-infested mud beds,
and every now and then bringing huge
snapper to the surface by simply grasping
one of his front paws with the unprotected

OF the different places for catching the
wary turtle, in this neighborhood. Buffalo
creek about six miles from here has long
enjoyed fatteripg reputation, but this
year it has exceeded all former records, and
it remained for a gentleman living in the
neighborhood OF that stream to distance all
competitors in the size OF his single capture.
1t is stated bv reliable eyewitness, that
the gentleman alluded to, shot and wounded
turtle a couple of days ago, which he
afterward succeeded in capturing, after a
hard fight, that weighed exactly 6s pounds
There was no accommodating date engraved
on his back, nor the initials of George
Washington. or other lamented patriots, to
indicate the age of the huge reptile, or his
aristocratic connections, or rather acquaint-
ances, but he is regarded as the patriarch,
and ancestor of all the turtles in this neigh
borhood. As ages 60, he must have been
old enough to enlist, when the first call
came for troops to repel the British who
objected to the Boston tea party

NEW CRUISERS TRIAL TRIP.
The San francisco steams for Five Hours
and Behaves Admirably.

SAN FRANCISCO, August 3.-The new
cruiser San Francisco made her first pre-
liminary trial trip on the bay this after
noon. She steamed for five hours at an easy
rate of speed, and according to the state
ments of her builders the trip was thor
oughly successful. No attempt was made
to force her. the only object being to give
the new machinery a preliminary test. Her
speed under half pressure with the engines
making a maximum of 66 revolutions per
minute was ten knots per hour.
The trial will be continued on the bay
during the coming week, and the cruiser
will probably not start to the Santa Barbara
channel for her official trial trip before

The Situation In New Mexico.

SILVER CITY.-The strike in the Good
Luck at Lone Mountain is not only better
than the owners had dared to expect, but is
the best strike recently made in this coun-
ty. A few weeks ago some very rich ore
was found on the surface of this claim, and
the discoverer thinking that it would not be
likely TO hold out, sold it for small amount.
The purchasers went to work and besides
taking out several thousand dollars worth of
ore, have in so doing exposed large amount
Of rich ore, The ore body bears every in
dication Of being permanent, and if it
should prove to be so, Lone Mountain may
yet trivial Georgetown, which is the largest
producer in New Mexico. The two camps
are about 10 miles apart'and it Is believed
that there is q rich mineral district between
them which has, as yet, been undeveloped.
It has been shown that large bodies of cop
per, zinc and iron lie between these two camps
in the Hanover and Santa Rita districts
which have been developed to a consider
able extent, but greater results are expected
from the section in which camp Vellins is
situated. Lone Mountain has not been
figuring prominently. Last year the pro-
duction Of the camp was not quite 81, 900.
The production of the Good Luck for
month past has been more than the
entire camp produced last year and
other mines are promising large
returns. The mineral is there
and night have remained for years to come
if q cropping, which happened to be in just
the right place, had not been discovered.
So IL is with camp VellIns. The mineral
is there, as is undisputably shown by the
surface indications, but the right place to
get at it has not yet been found. John NJ.
Wright has purchased the Boise City and
Seattle mines in the Silver Creek district
for the Last Chance Mining Com
pany, which purchased the Last Chance
mine a few weeks ago. Property on
Silver creek is in demand, more sales having
been made in that district this summer than
in any other district in Southwestern New
Mexico. A contract has been let to mine

Tucsor-The Tucson ismelter is now
running along nicely and seems to
be perfect success. The first consignment
of copper ore in carlots arrived at the
smelter yesterday morning. This was the
first shipment from the Silver Bell district,
A big strike is reported in the
Duquesne Mining Company's mine in
the Harshaw district. They got
through the zino ore and struck o
very rich copper smelling ore. Mr.. J. c.
Waterman, from the .Baboquivari mining
district, reports that the Octopus mine is
now receiving the most attention in that
district and it is now running ten stamps
day and night and five more will be started
in about ten days. The Octopus has 20
stamps in position. but has not the power
to run them all. The ore from the mine is
about half gold and half silver and about
800 pounds of concentrates day are being
worked. Its future prospects are very
good. Considerable excitement was occa-
stoned in Nogales the other day when the
report got abroad that Roy and Whitcomb
had just completed an assay of ore from the
St. Patrick mine and found that it run
SS7 80 in gold. The ore was from the 1S0
foot level, and there is an abundance in
sight. The st. Patrick is a silver mine and
this is the first gold assay that has been
made.
