The 6per cent bonds of the bridge company aud their over dua ,upons will bs funded into guar snt-ed per cent bouds at 75 per cent nf the par value of the old bonds.

ANOTHER ROYAL DEATH.
Duke Constantine, Uncle of tho Cxar .
 Russia, Passes Away.

Duke Constantine, Uncle of tho Cxar of
 Russia, Passes Away.
 ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 26.-The Grand Duke Nicolas witch Constantine, the second son of the late Emperor Nicholas of Russia and uncle of the present czar, is dead.
 The late Grand Duke Constantine, who was grand admiral of the imperial fleet, was born Sept. 21, or, according to the old style, which is still in use in Russia, on Sept. g, 1927.
 In his capacity as admiral the Grand Duke Constantine once arrested his elder brother, the late emperor of Russia, who was on board his ship at the time. For this the Grand Duke Constantine was himself placed under arrest for a considerable time by his father.
 The grand duke was chief of the old Mus covite party against the Moderate party of which the present czar, Alexander II, has been considered the center.
 At the death of the Emperor Nicholas it was feared that the Grand Duke Constan- tine might become the leader of a movement the object of which would be to place the old Muscovite party d the Grand Duke Constantine in power, therefore the em- peror caused the latter to take in his presence an oath of fidelity and obedience tu the heir to the throne.

 Steadily develop the best, and the worst will die out for lack of attenti' n
 The wife who Is not treated as slave, but as au equal, is always the hus bands best friend.

 Wisdom and happiness are insepar- ahle-never apart from each other.

THE FIFTY-sEcoNo CONGRESS.
A Digest of the Proceedings in the Senate

A Digest of the Proceedings in the Senate
 and House.
 WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.-In the house the bill to regulate the public printing came up as unfinished business, and after being att tackled by Messrs. O'Neill. Chipman, Blank head and others, and being defended by MT. Richardson, it was laid on the table by a vote of l35 to l02, thus disposirs! of the meas ure. Mir Richardson said a rough estimate fixed upon $400 900 or $50O, 900 as the amount that would be saved each year by the bill.
 MT. Springer then moved to adjourn, but lis motion was defeated, only to be carried when made by MT. McCreary, of Kentucky, Eve minutes later.
 WASHINGTON, Jan. 2O-The senate, with an average attendance of twenty-five mem bers during the greater part of the day, dis Gussed the La Abre claim till an adjourn ment. During the morning hour public building bills, most of which went through the senate but failed to pass the house, were passed, aggregating about SS06, 6,0Oo.

 WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-The house has fallen into the easy habits of its predeces- sors in the early part of the session and ad- journed until Monday.
 The proposed code of rules for the Fifty second congress was presented by MT. Catching, and MT. Bland introduced free coinage bill
 WASHINGTON, Jan. 22.-At no time dur ing the day were there more than thirty senators present, except, perhaps, for 8 brief period during MT. Stanford's speech in favor of his land loan scheme, and the senate went into executive session and ad- journed to Monday with scarcely six sena- tors in attendance. The La Abra case still holds the floor and bids fair to continue to do 30 through the coming week.
 WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-In the senate and house little business was done apart from the reception and reading of the presidents message. In the senate the late Justice Bradley was eulogized and in the house a few bills were introduced.
