new POSTOFFICES.
Vests Building Measure Passes
the Senate
ny TwENTY-FoUR TO TWENTY-oNE.

The Bill Carries with 1t an Amend
tnent That the Cost of Building
Shall Not Exceed $40, 900 MIR.
Vest Enters Protest Against Ex-
travagance.
WASHINGTON, March 15.-After brief
executive session of the senate yesterday
that body resumed consideration of Mr..
Vests postoffice building bill. Mr.. Villas,
after consultation with other senators,
modified his original amendment so as
to increase the maximum cost of any
building from $35,ooO to s75,ooo His
amendment in detail stipulated that the
total cost shall in no case exceed SEQ, 900
ct any place where the gross receipts
for the three years preceding have not
exceeded 5000, and at no other place
shall exceed sum equal to the aggre-
gate Of the postoffice receipts at such
places during the three years preceding,
nor $75 900 in all Within such limits
She costs Of such buildings shall be fixed
by the board of construction, subject to
the presidents approval, regard being
had for population, business and growth
in the past, and if the board should de-
sire to exceed this limit of cost they
shall report the same to congress, with
their reason.
4 Mr. Berry Objects.
: Mr., Berry, of Arkansas, gave his opin-
ion that this amendment, by taking off
The limit, would increase the cost of the
bill to at least $50, 100000.
? Mr.. Hale, of Maine, said he had been
in favor of Mr.. Vests bill so long as it
applied to the small offices, but he now
felt impelled for the first time in his life
70 vote with the senator from Arkansas
SMr. Berry,.
Mr.. Sherman thought the proper way
Aarger centers of population first rather
than the small offices. It seemed that
Che best plan;was to confne the opera
tions Of the bill to towns of minimum
population of 10000 and postal receipts
Of not less than 100000 year.
Mr.. Vest Talks Economy.
Mr.. Vest said the senator from Maine
kMr. Hale objected to the bill because
the smaller Offices were not provided for,
and the senator from Ohio (Mr. Sher-
man) objected to it because the larger
offices were not taken care of. He hun
self was of the opinion that the $50, 900
aimit, as originally proposed by him,
was the correct one. Congress could not
90 on doing as it did last year, appro-
priating $500, 900 for thirty public build
Sngs. This was worse than the river and
harbor BILL worse than the pension sys-
tenn. 1t was the worst grab game ever
inaugurated by congress. 1t was all a
matter of personal solicitation. Once
you put public building in town of
10000 inhabitants, as proposed by SEN
ator Sherman, and. every other town of
Che same size would demand it.
+ bir. Villas amendment was adopted.
Mr.. George, of Mississippi, offered an
amendment that all expenditures under
this act shall be paid for by the issue Of
legal tender notes in exc@s Of the
amount now authorized by law, which
shall be engraved, printed, issued and
reissued in the saneway as now author
lied. The amendment was laid on the
table.
The bill was then reported to the sen
ate and passed-ayes, "a; nays, 81.

A Wife's Power.

A good wife is to q man wisdom,
strength and courage; q bad one is con-
fusion, weakness and despair. No condi-
tion is hopeless to man where the wife
possesses frmness, decision and economy.
There is no outward propriety which can
counteract Incidence, extravaganza and
folly at home. No spirit can long endure
bad influence. Man is strong, but his
heart is not adamant. He needs tran
quill mind, and especially if he is an in
telligent man, with whole head, he
needs it's moral force in the conflict of
life. To recover his composure, home
must be a place of peace and comfort.
There his soul renews his strength and
goes forth with renewed vigor to encoun-
ter the labor and troubles of life. But
It at home he finds no rest, and there is
met with bad temper, jealousy and gloom
or assailed with complaints and censure,
hope yanishes and he sinks into despair
