They Tried AmyI.

LANSING, Mich, March Ex-Governor Wi
mans has been seriously III for the past four
or five days with a violent and prolonged at
tack of the hiccoughs. All sorts of treatment
have been resorted TO, each with no perma-
nent beneficial effect. His condition became
SO serious that consultation of physicians
was held, at which it was decided to admin
lister nitrate of amyl. The first administra-
ton of the remedy was made at 8 O'Clock
and conferred considerable relief. The treat
ment was repeated later with gratifying re-
suits. The patient sank away in quiet
sleep and his symptoms are much more
favorable.

bills passed by the Fifty-frst congress and
which have become laws are these: The
copyright bill, the private land court bill,
the postal subsidy bill, the Indian depreda-
tons claim bill, the timber and pre- emptlon
law repeal bill, the customs administration
bill, general land forfeiture bill, the bill
to relieve the supreme court by the estab-
hshment of intermediate circuit courts of
appeal, the United States judges salaries bill,
the worlds fair bill, the Wyoming and Idaho
admission bills. the anti-lottery and anti
trust bills, the reapportiOnment bill, the i'm
migration bill, the bill to ratify agreements
with various Indian tribes and to pay the
friendly Sioux 500, coo, to reduce the fees of
pension agents, to pay the French spoilation
claims, the meat inspection bill, to prevent
the importation of aduterated food and
drink, the live cattle and hog inspection bill,
to bill appropriating 81, 0OO,O 900 for the inn
provement of the Mississippi river, to per-
NIT sorghum sugar manufacturers to use
alcohol without payment of tax, for the con-
structlon of deep water harbor on the coast
of Texas, to apply the proceeds of the sales
of public lands and the receipts from certain
land grant railroads to the support of agri-
cultural and industrial colleges, providing
for town site entries in Oklahoma, to amend
the interstate commerce act so as to give the
commission fuller power in respect to max
ing inquiries, and to enable the postmaster
general to expend $4,000 to test the free de-
livery system in small towns.
The first, or long session, was notable for
the number of important measures that be-
came laws. Wyoming and Idaho were ad-
mitted to statehood, making the number of
states forty-four. A general land grant for
feiture bill, providing for the forfeiture to
the government of all unearned lands granted
to aid in construction of railroads opposite
portions of the road uncompleted at the time
of the passage of the law, opened new lands
to settlement. The prohibition of American
meat from certain foreign markets brought
about the passage of the law to provide for
the inspection of meats intended for export.
The bills to prohibit the expectation of adul-
terated articles of food and drink and to en-
able the president to prevent the importation
of impure and adulterated articles of food
and drink are worthy of special mention.
