CONGRESS.
Senate,

WASHINGTON, Feb. Bills were re
ported and placed on the calendar: To
amend the act to promote the admins
tration of justice in the army: to amend
the laws relating to the mineral lands.
House bill authorizing a change of
location in a railroad bridge over the
Mississippi river at st. Paul was passed.
Mr. Mitchell, from the committee on
elections, reported two resolutions
affirming that Fred T. Dubois was en-
titled to retain his seat as senator from
Idaho, and H. W, W, Claggett was not
entitled to such seat, Mr.. Vance, of
North Carolina, asked that resolutions
lie over as there would be a minority
report. 1t was 30 ordered.
Mr.. Palmer, of Illinois, submitted a
resolution providing for the election of
senators by the people, and gave notice
that at some convenient day he should
address the senate on this subject.
Mr.. Voorhees,, who had been absent
from the senate for some days on &C
count of illness, rose to question of
personal privilege. He sent to the clerks
desk, and had read, a Washington dis
patch to the Philadelphia Press of
Saturday last. which accused the judi
ciary committee of straining senatorial
ny pOoIlrOhIIA5
action on the nomination of Judge
Woods, of Indiana, as United States
circuit judge, and further suggested
that he (Mr. Voorhees, had proposed to
Senators Cameron and Quay, of Penn
sylvania, and Higgins, of Delaware, that
that if they would help to defeat Judge
Woods, he would assist to defeat the con-
firmation of Judge Dallas, the Demo-
cratic circuit judge nominated from
Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Voorhees, then addressed the SEN
ate concerning the article. His princi-
pal objection related to the last para
graph. in which the statement was
made that he (Mr. Voorhees, had pro-
posed to Senators Quay and Cameron, of
Pennsylvania, and Higgins, of Della
ware, that in return for their assistance
in the defeat of Judge Woods, who he'd
been nominated for one of the circuit
judgeships of the United States, he
would join in movement on the Dem
pcratio side of the chamber to defeat
the nomination of Judge Dallas, APP
pointed to similar position from the
state of Pennsylvania. He pronounced
it a falsehood, as did Messrs. Cameron,
Quay and Higgins, who spoke later.
The senate at 2 o'clock took up the
printing bill and discussed it the rest of
the day.
MI. Paddock gave notice that as soon
the pending bill was disposed of he
would move to take up the pure food
measure.

AMERICAS MUSICAL NEED.

- L -N
A School for Instruction In Opera Would
Help Musicians, Singers and Composers.
What we need, says a writer In the
Forum, is American opera given under
American influences A school for opera
should be established here It would
keep at home those young musicians
who annually go abroad to study and
would encourage those to undertake a
musical education who are deferred
from it by the expense which they
would incur by European training. The
school should not only train singers,
but also young men ambitious to be-
come orchestra players and orchestra
leaders There should be In connection
withit a theateri in which operas might
be produced. The institutions would
thus be a practical school for. opera.
Native singers would thus have the ad-
vantage of being heard under the most
favorable conditions, and native instru-
mentalites would display their talent
in the orchestra we need, especially, a
better training In this country for
orchestra leaders, American composers,
too, would be greatly helped, for the
school should endeavor to encourage
them, not by ignoring works written
by foreigners, but by giving preference
TO operas written by Americans If 1t
were possible TO raise a guarantee fund
for such an establishment, splendid re-
suits might be obtained in a very short
time.

DUST AT SEA.

The Peculiar Phenomena Noticed on
Board a British Vessel.
The British ship Berean, which re-
Gently made the voyage from Tasmania
around Cape Horn to England, ~encount-
cred a remarkable but not unusual phe-
nomenon at sea, VIZ, q storm of dust.
After crossing the equator, says School
at Home, she fell into the northeast
trade winds, and when about six hun
dred miles west of the Cape de Verde
Islands, the nearest land, "the Berean's
sails and rigging were thinly coated
with a very fine powder dust of a dark
yellow or saffron color, scarcely dis
cernible IN or near the deck, but pro-
fuse on tle highest parts of the rig
ging," 80 that the sails appeared
tanned"
Fine dust falling on vessels in the At
lantic near the Cape de Verde archipel-
ago has often been reported, but it has
SO often been of a reddish hue that it Is
known among sailors as red fog" and
has been generally supposed to come
from South America. The observation
on board the Berean appears to over
throw this conclusion, and to deter
mine the African origin both of the At
lantic dust and the so-called "blood
rains" Of southern Europe,
Admiral Smyth many years ago re-
ported, during his stay in Sicily, on the
18th of March, 1914, a blood rain"
which fell "in large, muddy drops, and
deposited a very minute sand of a yell
Lowered color"-quite similar to that
now reported by the Berean- He then
regarded 1t as '~'sirocco dust from the
African desert, browning the beauti-
full theory Of atmospheric circulation"
Both on the Atlantic ocean and IN Eu.
rope these rains of dust have almost In
variably fallen between january and
April-a period Of the year IN which the

A PRETTY GIRLS MISTAKE.
The Victim Did Not Appear 60 Mind 1t In
the Least.

Lhb LehSls
She was little and dainty and trim,
with brown eyes and hair, rosy cheeks
and a neat little brown dress that exact
ly matched as we'll as fitted her. And as
she sat on the wicker seat of a car in an
Illinois suburban train and looked up at
her big, handsome lover, who sat beside
her, it was evident that she was just as
proud of him as he was Of her. 1t was
a quarter to eight o'clock In the yer
ing and the south town crowd was just
reaching the city for the theaters.
When the train reached the Randolph
street station, says the Chicago Times,
they in common with the rest of the
| crowd rose TO leave the train.
Just as they reached the car door he
spoke TO her as she was leading the
way and turned back TO their seat for
a forgotten opera glass. She did not
hear him and went calmly on, out TO
the platform and down the car steps 10
the ground
Once more on firm footing she glanced
behind her, slipped her little hand with
In the arm of another stalwart young
man who was at that instant beside her
and snuggled up TO him for protection
from the cold wind that swept around
the orn of the waiting room. He
looked down with surprise but did not
resist, and they had taken half a dozen
steps across the platform when she
looked up to wonder at his silence.
Then she saw the strange face.
A little shrek, and then the embar-
rassed; "Ohl pardon-excuse me!' and
she fled back TO the right man, who was
even then coming out of the car, and
had watched the scene with amnzement.
The commuters smiled and wondered
what she would do or say as a reward
TO her lover for his surprise, and a proof
that 1t was ell, every bit, a mistake.
But he laughed a hearty laugh, and she
blushed very rosily, SO no one doubted
that ii would be all right.
