bill and the National Bankruptcy bill.
LII the Democratic Senators have no
stronger arguments 10 offer against the
Mckinley tariff bill than those made
by Senator Voorhees, i'm his speech
delivered in the Senate this week they
might as well retire from politics, Tor
this year anyway. As IA phrase maker
Mr.. Voorhees, is evidently trying To run
opposition To Mr. Cleveland; but he
seems 10 lack the originality of the Ex-
President Ii is understood that the
Republican Senators will make no set
speeches on the tariff bill until the
appropriation bills have all been dis
posed of by the Senate.
The air is full of rumors as To what
will or will not be done by the Senate
in regard To the several reciprocity
amendments which have been offered
To the tariff bill; but il is noticeable
that they all come from Democratic
sources. The Republican Senators,
who will decide the matter, are not
talking about ii, certainly not for pub.
LEGATION, but that they will take care OF
the interests of the people, rs the Re
publican party has always done is not
for "A moment To be doubted; therefore
Republicans can afford To patiently
wait for the action of the Senate, know
ing that the bill finally passed will en-
body the ideas and principles for which
the Republican party has stood for 10,
these many years.
The correspondence between this
government and Great Britain relat-
ing To the Behring Sea dispute has
been made public and it reflects moth

This has been military week with
the President Tuesday afternoon he
returned from a visit to his family;
Wednesday he went down the Potomac
To visit the District of Columbia

yesterday, accompanied 10y Secretary
Proctor. he went to Mount Gretna,
Pennsylvania, where the State National
Guard of that State is encamped.
There Is nothing new in the status of
the Federal Election bill The
Republican Senators have adopted
one of the maXims of that
great and wise Republican, Abraham
Lincoln, that ''it's no use To cross Il
bridge before you get To it," and it is
not probable that any definite announce
ment of what the majority of the Sen
ate proposes To do will be made until
the appropriation bills and the tariff
bill are out of the way. The Election
committee is carefully considering the
bill with a view of making changes in it
to supply certain defects which have
been pointed out.
The Republican State associations in
this city are unusually active in making
preparations to take part in the Con-
gressional campaign. Among the appli-
cations for membership presented to
the Pennsylvania association ut its last

WashingtOn Letter.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., July %, 1890.
The President certainly has the laugh
on the Democratic press of the country
which has been railing ut him for
allowing his wife To accept a seaside
cottage at Cape May Point. The
criticism would have been but just if
Mrs Harrison had accepted IA cottage
from citizens as gift; but the fact has
just leaked out, and it did not come from
the President either, that Mr.. Harrison
gave his check for $4,000 in payment
for the cottage which his family is at
present occupying at Cape May Point.
1t was intended by the gentlemen who
purchased the ground and built the
cottage to have presented il to Mrs.
Harrison, but as soon as the President
learned of it he informed them that he
made il an inviolable rule of his public
life never To accept, nor to allow any
member of his family TO accept presents
of any kind How many Democratic
papers will have the decency to correct
the wrong accusations they have been
makingy
The House has been industrious this
week, and Notwithstanding that one
day was lost on account of the death of
Representative James T. Walker, of
Missouri, il has passed two very inn
portant bills-the Original Package"

Millionaire For a Day.

George Sluthor, born and raised in
New Philadelphia, Ohio, a poor boy,
started West about fifteen years ago,
determined to make his fortune. He
embarked in the faro business and
from the very start luck was with him.
In an incredibly short space of time he
was worth $5OO,OOO. His associates
were Congressman, leading politicians
and all the rich nabobs of the day.
SluthSr was anxious to be worth a
million before returning to his old
home, and one night when the room
was filled with well known sporting
men, many of them worth their $780,
600. he determined to try for big
strike. Luck again favored him, and
by 3 o'clock in the morning he had
broken the bank, and raked in enough
to make his fortune count a cool ST.
100000. He would have done wisely
to have stopped there, but he thought
that in his run of good luck he could
double it. The very next night he be-
gan losing, and before morning every
dollar he had won the night before had
vanished. He was millionaire, how
ever, for one short day. Even with
this loss he was still possessed of
an ample fortune, but he began play
ing desperate game, risking thous-
ands of dollars at time, but luck was
against him. His princely fortune en-
tirely disappeared. The sad sequel to
the case is that he has been brought
home hopelessly insane. It was
thought that the scenes and faces of his
boyhood days would restore his shat
tered mind in a degree. but he grew
worse. The past few weeks he has
wandered aimlessly about the streets.
scarcely recognizing his best friends.
Finally it was found necessary to take
him to the County Intirmary, where he
is now confined in one of the wards,
with his mind shattered and the hope
of ultimate recovery almost impossi-

In a Great State.

| Washington has her great unknown
| land, like the interior of Africa, says
the Seattle Press. The country shut in
by the Olympic Mountains, which in
cludes an area of about $500 miles
/ square, has never, to the positive
| knowledge of old residents of the terri
tory, been trodden by the foot of man,
white or Indian. These mountains rise
! from the level country. within ten or
fifteen miles of the Straits of San Juan
} de Fuca in the north. the Pacific Ocean
in the west, Hoods Canal in the east,
and the basin of the Quinault Lake in
! the south, and rising to the height of
5000 to 5000 feet, shut in a vast unex-
plored area.
The Indians have never penetrated
,, it, for their traditions say that it is in
habited by very fierce tribe, which
! none of the coast tribes dare molest.
Though it is improbable that such q
tribe could have existed in this mount
ain country without their presence be-
/ coming known to the white man, no
man has ever ascertained that it did
not exist. White men, too, have only
vague accounts of any white man hav-
ing ever passed through this country,
for investigation of all the claims of
travellers has invariably proved that
they have only traversed its outer
+ edges.
! The most generally accepted theory
in regard to this country is that it con-
sisted of great valleys stretching from
the inward slopes of the mountains to a
| great central basin. This theory is
supported by the fact that, although the
country around has abundant rain and
clouds constantly hang over the mount
ain tops. all the streams flowing to-
ward the four points of the compass
are insignificant, and rise only on the
outward slopes of the range. none ap-
pearing to drain the great area shut in
by the mountains. This fact appears
to support the theory that the streams
flowing from the inner slopes of the
mountains feed great interior lake.
1t must have an outlet somewhere, and
as all of the streams pouring from the
mountains rise on their outward slopes,
it must have a subterranean outlet into
the ocean, the straits or the sound.
There are great discoveries in store for
some of Washington's explorers.

The Men and Women of Brazil.

The Flumenenses, as the people of
Rio are called, are in some ways polite
and well bred, in others rude and vul-
gar. The men have a coarse habit of
rudely staring at every lady who passes
by, and a crowd on street corner will
never give way to let ladies pass
through. If two or more Brazilians
meet on the sidewalk and stop to talk
they coolly obstruct the pavement and
expect passers-by to take to the road
way. The tram-cars are not fit for a
lady to ride in-the men all smoke, and
usually villainous tobacco.
The Brazilian women are not pretty,
and in the presence of gentlemen are
usually shy. At reception or soiree
the gentlemen gather in knots and talk
politics at the top of their voices, and
the ladies sit about and talk-I know
not what, for if gentleman comes
near they instantly stop short.
The men of native birth, as rule,
are low of stature and slender. But
there are Brazilians of girth and COM
manding presence. The Brazilian wo-
men are dark and not comparable to
our Northern beauties. They make
good mothers, though rather induls sent,
but social usages allow them no liberty
and their days are monotonous and
without excitement. Their daughters
are taught French. Music is natural
gift. They can embroider little, but
the world and what goes on it is a
sealed book to them. Until they are
married they are never alone in a gen.
tleman's company. A young man can
not call often and manifest any particu-
lar preference for young lady with
out being asked if his intentions are
serious. The mother has scarcely
more liberty than the daughter. Her
place is at home, and, be it said to the
Brazilians' credit the husbands, as a
rule, are domestic in their habits.
Their evenings are spent at home or at
places of amusement with their wives
and children.-Rj0 JU7eeiro Letter.

And he searched long, and he found verse
At the end Of the fOrteth day. ..-
''Shc will think every line," he chuckled, ls

And he laughed full loud and gay

To write a good verse. Hoo-ray!
Then he turned tie page, and his rlVals name
Was writ with much display

And his raven locks turned gray,
And he fell on his side and quickly died

DEMPSEY GOES SOUTH.
He Has Put Up His 81 900 Forfeit
to Bind the Eight.

New ORLEANS, Dec. 16.-Jack Demp-
sey left for Galveston this evening. He
didnot see Fitzslmmons. Jimmy Carroll
coming over instead. Carroll said his
principal is suffering from la grippe,
but everybody understood the OBJ
ject is not to let Dempsey see his giant
rival until they meet in the ring.
Dempsey had it understood that the
men were not to weigh over l54 pounds
scales TO the ring. The referee will be
chosen the night before the fight.
Dempsey then put up his $1,000 forfeit
and the match is now binding on both
sides. Carroll was asked with reference
10 meeting McAulitfe again, and says
he will fight after the coming battle for
any amount, but the weight must be 133
pounds.

Almighty did not make me an agency
Indian, and Ill fight and die
fighting before any white man
can make me an agency Indian"
This was the declaration made by Sit
ting Bull to Gen. Miles, and the detailed
reports of the great medicine mans
agency to-day, give to the declaration
the full force of prophecy. All eye
witnesses agree as to facts that, every
circumstance considered, make the
final tragedy involving the eXtermina-
ton OF probably the brainiest In
dian that ever lived one of the
most picturesque and characteristic
incidents of American history. That the
government authorities, civil as well as
military. from President Harrison and
Gen. Miles down, preferred the death of
the famous old savage to his capture
whole skinned, few persons here, In
felt that Sitting Bulls presence any
where behind iron bars would be the
cause of endless troubles, while,
should he fall victim to the
ready Winchester, the thousands of
Messiah crazed ghost dancers would
rudely realize that his ''medicine,"
which was to have made them bullet
proof, and yet could not save so great
an oracle, must be worthless after all,
and should be forsaken for the paths of
peace. The expedition which started
from this agency for Sitting BULBS
camp, forty miles distant, to take him,
dead or alive, with chances tel to one
of his death, was no hap-haZard foray
of Semi-Savage Indian police and
ill-adylsed army subordinates. There is
every reason to believe the whole af-
fair was a carefully planned military
maneuver originating with no less
person than Gen. Miles himself, sane
toned in the war department at Wash
ingtOn and authorized in President Har-
riSon'S cabinet. 1t is conceded that the
operation against Sitting Bulls person
ality was suggested by the etfectual
quelling~ produced by the removal of
Medicine Arrow, the great Cheyenne
leader, when the Cheyennes threatened
an unprecedent uprising. The promise
to Idle fighting" quoted above and
made by Sitting Bull personally to Gen.
Miles on the occasion of their first
meeting, had much to do also in shap-

isive result as the old chiefs of

the last Indian on the continent to give
up his rifle. When Gen Miles left
Chicago, headed in this direction, 1t was
the beginning of the end.

WASHINGTON OPINION.
Proctor and SchOfield Contribute
Guarded Expressions,

WASHINGTON, Dec. is. = Secretary
Proctor said this afternoon that no ac-
ton was necessary On the part of the
war department in regard to the killing
of Sitting Bull, the army officers on the
scene being fully cOnversant with all
the facts and fully competent to deal
with the case. He said he thought tina t
Sitting BULBS death would draw the
line between the diSaffected Indians
and the peaceable Indians sharper than
it has been. and would probably result
in speedier adjustment of the
difficulty. Gen. Schofeld was asked
this morning for his views
Oh the Indian situation, and he said he
did not care to talk about it just now.
preferring to await the developments of
the next few days. The situation was
very complicated, he said, and its
settlement could not be predicted on
any one event. He could not foretell,
he said, the effect of Sitting Bulls
death on the malcontents, but was salts
fed that it would undoubtedly
strengthen the loyalty of the friendly
Indians. Gen. Schofield said he had
strong hopes that the troops would be
able to close in on the hostiies and end
the matter without conflict. 1t was a
matter of satisfaction to him that the
only conflicts so far were between
been called into action. Secretary
Proctor left the war department this
morning early for the White house and
laid before the cabinet meeting all the
information on the Indian trouble in his
| possession.
