Too Literal.

A good deal of tact IS needed in giving
instruction to children. A Pittsburgh
Sunday school teacher said recently to one
of his scholars: you shouldn't fight with
the neighbors' boys; you should heap Goals
of fire on their heads" Il can't" was
the reply; 1--WE burn natural gas"

THE HOUSEHOLD.
Day and Night.
JAMES MANNING BRONSON .

Too soon, alas! the pleasing day has fled;
Majestic the great orb his course has sped,
And swept In triumph, all the skies aglow.
Behind the hilltops to the world below.
Around us now the shadows noiseless fall,
And night mes gloomy on, her face pail
Yet soon relieved by the glorious sight
Ot heavens jewels and the radiant light
transforming softly into poems in gray
The garlsh tones and harsh outlay of day.
The day pleasing, aye the day was fair:
Yet was the day full charged with griefs and care
me me night Is sombre, aye, the night is sad
let en- In sombre night we may be glad
We see beauty then, not seen before
The golden sands of the celestial shore
Clean brightly on the uplift reverent eye,
And holy love Eliminates the sky.
Our harvest burdens are those we Dor
row.
Discomfort is the peg in your shoe that
hurts.
A child that does not laugh is sci dom.
healthy.
knowledge without love is as a body
without life.
Deceit is in the heart of them that i'm
agine evil"
There is no sharper sword than that in
the hand of truth.
An hour of praises is worth day of
fasting and acknowledgements
How much easier it is to tell others how
they ought to walk, than it is to step
right ourselves.
In the blacklist soils grow the richest
flowers, and the loftiest and strongest trees
spring heavenward among the rocks.-J.
G. Holland.
The talent of success is nothing more
than what you can do well; and doing well
whatever you do, without a thought of
fame.-Longfellow.

CONGRESSIONAL MATTERS.
Resolution Requesting the Secretary Of
State to Inquire Into the Arrest of
DR.. Thomas Gallagher.

Caminetti has hopes that he will ye
succeed in having his hydraulic mine.
bill passed before this session OF Con
gress ad journs.
The Secretary OF the Treasury is pre-.
pairing for transmission to Congress plans
and estimates Tor the San Francisco
postofice. He thinks building to be
in keeping with tn. size and Importance
OF a city like San Francisco should cost
not lees than 5000, 900 or 10, 0O0, 900.
The Committee on the Columbian Ex-
position decided to report favorably a
bill in aid OF the fair substantially the
same as that agreed on by the House
Committee, providing for 10000, 900 SOU
venir half-dollars. 1t includes, however,
an amendment providing the fair shall
be closed on Sunday.
Representative Cummings bill, equal
izing the pay Of letter carriers, has been
iavorably reported from the Committee
on Postoffices and Post Roads. The bill
likes the pay Of letter carriers in all Tree
delivery districts at 1900 for the first
year, $500 for the second, 81 600 for the
third and fourth and thereafter 81, 200.
McAleer OF Pennsylvania introduced
in the House a resolution requesting the
Secretary OF State to inquire into the
cause Of arrest and imprisonment Of DR..
Thomas Gallagher in England. The res
olution states that 1t was thought he was
convicted and sentenced to imprisonment
for lie through political prejudice, which
existed against Irish persons in England.
He WAS sentenced in 1883, min. DAYS
alter his arrival in England. The reso-
luton was referred to the Committee on
Foreign Affairs.
The action OF the House in rejecting
the first two conference reports presented
this session on the regular annual appro-
priation bills has given rise to much UNI
favorable comment among Senators.
There is no doubt that it has seriously
jeopardized the prospects OF an early adj
journment OF Congress. Bad blood has
been engendered on both sides, and GER
tain Senators stated recently that Con-
gress would remain in session until elec-
ton day If the House persisted in main-
tanning its position. Mcmillan declared
the House would remain in session all
summer before accepting amendments
increasing the appropriation. The Sem
atorial programme is to sit it out In quiet
dignity, but some members OF the House
threaten in that case that the House will
refuse to pass any resolution extending
the appropriations for the support of the
government beyond July % next. Of
course, no one believes either House will
proceed TO such extremity, but the talk
shows the strength OF the feeling.

FELL IN CLEMENCEAU's TRAP.
How the French Ministerial Crisis vs.
Brought About and Its Effect

How the French Ministerial Crisis Was
Brought About and Its Eject
PARIS. Feb. 19.-The ministerial crisis was
sprung so suddenly and with 80 little cause
upon the chamber yesterday that 1t has
had little or no disturbing effect as yet
upon the public. There is some excite
ment, but it is confined to
purely political circles, although it Is capable
Of extending il famed into Q fame. Today
Paris is perfectly quiet Affairs in the minis
tries and at the Palais Bourbon go on the same
q ever: Everybody awaits the result with
tranquility.
The prevailing opinion is that there will BE-
Q dissolution Of the chambers unless the min.
istry, which has just resigned. is patched up.
NJ. de Freycinet, who dined with President
Carnot last night, was cioseted with him Co.
day. 1t is evident that the president is reluct-
ant to accept his resignation and the separation
Of q ministry which has been SO beneficial
tu France.

It would be equivalent to direct attack ON the

part Of the government.
In this situation NJ. do Frsycinet tried Il

called upon him to drop his political subtletiel
