A Remarkable Dream.

A happy octogenarian, ready to de-
part in peace, very recently related to
the writer the following experience.
When a young man he was examining,
with intense interest, the evidences of
the inspiration of the Bible. This led
him to a careful reading of inffdel obiec-
~tions, some of which greatly troubled
him; and retiring night, after wake
full hours of anxious thought, he fell
asleep. He dreamed that he was at sea
in n storm, the pillows about to engulf
he ship, on the deck of which were
stored all the Bibles accessible to him.
And suddenly came a mighty wave,
which, with the boom it swept across
that deck, bore from it every sacred vol.
ume into the wild waves The shock of
the disaster awakened him in a perspira-
ton from his agonizing agitation over
the loss forever of the living o~racles, to
see the very Bible he had read a few
hours before lying upon the table near,
rejecting brightly the light of the I'M
clouded noon. His grateful surprise
brought to his relief a flood of ear
While having no superstitious regard for
dreams, he said, From that experience
l have no unrest or passing doubt of the
divine authority of the holy Bible" 1t
was certainly an impressive illustration
of what we all have had-clear and deep
impressions made in dreams and visions
Of the night. "-Congregationalist

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-In the house.
under the call Of states, a number OF bills
were introduced and referred.
Although the house committee on rules
has not held a session during recess,
Speaker Reed, who is ex-officio chair.
man, has had drafted a code of rules for
the government of the house during the
coming session. He has not yet sub
mitted it to the other members of the
committee, and consequently is ~reticent as
to the changes proposed. 1t understood
that, although the old rules will be largely
readopted, there will be important changes
proposed in those which relate to tie
mode OF procedure in the house. A
clause will be inserted to enable the
speaker to put a stop Ia. fllibusteripg
actions when their object is clearly mani
felt, and a change will be made so as to
admit of the addition OF new legislation to
the general appropriation bill.
Among the bills introduced and re-
ferred were: Departments requesting
the executive departments to change ex-
tradition laws with Great Britain so that
persons charged with grand larceny, m
bezzlement and other crimes may be ex-
tractited from Canada. By Lane illinois,

late supervision, employing sixty hands in
that department. They are running

Bills for Admission Postponed.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Elm the opinion
OF the we'll known Edelhoff customs case,
the supreme court holds that silk and
cotton ribbons used exclusively as hat
trimmings are dutiable at 20 per cent as
trimmings for hats, bonnets and hoods
and not at so per cent, as materials OF
which silk is the component of chief
value. The vernme will by this de.
cisIon be compelled TO refund about
6,0O0, 900 to importers.
A representative of the Mormons OF
Idaho appeared before the senate com
mittee on territories to day and asked the
consideration of the bill for the admission
OF that territory to the union as a state be
postponed one week, in order to allow at,
torneys for the Mormons to appear and
present their objections to the admission
OF the territory under the recently adopted
constitution, which virtually excludes
Mormons from citizenship bv reason of
Of its oath provision. In view OF this
fact the case is pending in the supreme
court, an early decision of which is ex-
pected, involving the constitutionality Of
this provision. The committee decided
to grant the request for ~postponment. The
consideration of the bill for the admission
OF Wyoming has been postponed.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-The United

opinion in the case of Nephi W. Clayton
VS.. the people of the territory OF Utah, an
appeal from the supreme court of the ter

refusing to turn over his office to Arthur
Pratt, appointed to the place by Gov. Muir
ray, of Utah. 1t is contended that Clayton

Judgment. The decision of the state

affirmed. The Nagle case, arising out Of
the killing of Judge Terry in California
last summer, was set down for argument
on the March list.
