Another and larger package of coupons

there is but very little difference between
his record and that of Lansing.
Mr.. Dawson's canvass is developing
great strength. He has passed Spaulding
and his eye fixed on the retreating forms
of Mr.. Collins and Mr.. Greaves Mr..

The Work of Senate and House Yesterday
A Parcels Post Convention Between
the United states and the Windward
1sIes-Pensions for New Englanders.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-In the Senate
yesterday, Mr.. Henderson, referring to
what is known as "the green goods" bus
mess, said that there was no law on the
statute book 10 reach that great evil, or
rather crime, and he introduced three
bills with letter from the Chief of the
Secret Service division OF the Treasury
Department) intended TO remedy it. These
bills were read by their titles and were
referred TO the Judiciary Committee.
The Senate then resumed the consider
alton of the Idaho election case and was
addressed by Mr.. Stewart in favor OF the
claim OF Mr.. Cleggett. lie urged that
the "pretended election" OF mr. DUBOIS
was not according TO the deliberate judg-
ment OF the two houses of the Idaho Leg
islature. but was the result of a combina-
tion between Messrs. Dubois, Shoup and
Mcconnell to elect themselves at all haz-
ards.
Mr.. Stewart suspended his remarks to
allow the presidents message on the Co
lumbian exposition TO be laid before the
Senate. Ii was read and referred TO the
uuadrocentennial committee.
AT the close OF his speech, Mr.. Stewart
offered a resolution that Mr.. Cleggett
have leave TO occupy seat on the fioor OF
the Senate pending the discussion OF the
report ana nave leave 10 speak 10 luS incI-
rifs of his claim TO the seat.
This resolution went over.
Mr.. Frye offered an amendment to n
bill now before the finance committee on
the subject of National banks. The
amendment provides that National banks
shall be prohibited from paying interest
on deposits. He offered il, he said, by re-
quest. He had not examined the matter
with sufficient care TO have (at least TO
express) any opinion on its merits now.
The amendment was referred to the Il
nance committee.
The consideration OF the Idaho election
case was resumed and Mr.. Turpie argued
in favor of the majority report, that Mr..
Dubois is entitled 10 the seat.
At the close of Mr.. Turpie's speech the
Senate went into executive session and
afterwards adjourned.
In the House.
Mr. Smith OF Arizona, offered an amend
ment to the clause appropriating $4,000
for the purpose of irrigating Indian res
ervations made for the support of Indian
schools situated east OF the Missouri
river.
After disposing OF 46 of the 60 pages of
the bill, the committee rose.
On motion of Mr.. Sayres of Texas the
Senate amendments to the census def
cheney bill were non-concurred in and
conference comufittccconposed of Mcssrs.
Sayers, Holman and Dingley, was ordered.
The House then adjourned and the clerk

Buildings Protected Against Fire.

An interesting method Of preventing
q building from catching fire when ada
cent buildings are burning has been
adopted in the offices OF a Glasgow (Scot-
land) paper. There is already in the build
ing an efficient installation OF automatic
sprinklers for extinguishlng fires which
may come from within; but 1t Is
considered that there Is just as much
danger, II not more, Som fires originat-
ing elsewhere. A supply pipe is, therefore.
taken from the water tower which feeds the
sprfnklers and connected with system
of perforated malleable iron pipes. which
are carried along the ridge OF the roof,
the caves and all over the windows. The
pipes are usually kept absolutely dry, and
to prevent their rusting they are coated
with zinc. A pump Is provided for forcing
the water through the system OF pipes,
and il can be brought into action almost
instantaneously. The exterior OF the
building receives such n constant flooding
when the pump Is in action that there Is
absolutely no danger from en- adjacent
fire.

The Fashionable woman's Form.

The woman who doesn't know how TO
make herself look better by the disposi-
tion of her belongings had much better
not attempt to do anything but let long,
lank nature announce itself. Among the
fashionable set good figures are the ex-
ception rather than the rule, most of the
women being too fat. OF course, this
does not apply TO the young girls, but
they, like all American young girls in the
North, are apt to be at the other extreme,
and that is, litty scrawny.
We are Of so many nationalities that it
is amusing to hear OF a woman who traces
her fine figure to the different blood she
inherits. She says; 81 got my hand
some neck from my English grandmother,
my hips from my French grandmother,
my clear, pure skin from an Irish grand
mother and its smoothness from Spanish
one The smallness Of my feet and hands
/ inherit from my mother, who is an
American, and my quickness in solving
all this from my father, who is an Ameri-
can politician, born in Ireland. -" Bah "

springer Says Action of that state Makes
Cleveland Impossible.


Cleveland Impossible.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-Represe sentative
Springer OF Illinois, chairman of the Ways
and Means committee OF the House, last
evening said: Until the meeting OF the
Albany convention IL was not authorita-
lively determined what course would be
pursued by the Democracy of New York
as between Senator Hill and ex-President
Cleveland.
That question has now been settled.
The Democracy of New York have but
one candidate, and for him their delega-
ton has been instructed to vote as unit
with a unanimity clearly witnessed in
state conventions.
However much the friends OF Mr.. Cleve-
land in other states may regret this ac-
tion, they must as Democrats, accept it as
fnal
1t would be folly for other states to in
sist upon Mr.. Cleveland's nomination
when his own state has unanimously de-
clared for another.
II Mr.. Cleveland's name is to be pre-
sented TO the National Democratic con-
vention, it must be presented by his own
state.
/ have always been great admirer of
Mr.. Cleveland, and i still retain my con-
fidence in his ability and his devotion TO
the principles OF the Democratic party.

Speaking OF reporters recalls the Curl
Gus situation OF one man in Eugland-the
queens reporter. The practice of sending
every night a descriptive report OF the
proceedings of the House OF Commons to
the sovereign began In tho days OF Lord
North, and the duty had always 10 be un-
dertaken by the leader OF the House until
1874 when Dsraeli, coming into Office,
coniided the task TO the late Lord Barring
tor, and when Smith became the leader
OF the House it was undertaken by Lord
Lewisham. This has been given up, and
the queen now reads the report OF the de-
bates In the morning papers.-Boston

The Offer.

The NEWS proposes TO send at its own
cost a representative Rhode Island work
ingman 10 Great Britain TO report upon
the condition of workingmen there. 1t
will pay all his expenses and furnish him
with guide books and all necessary infor-
nation and assistance in laying out his
route. II will also pay full day wages
for every day of his absence either to him
or TO his family. He will start some time
in May and will have time enough to DO
great deal of sightseeing besides investi-
eating huts and houels and tenements.
Thus, if a man has family, its support
will be amply provided for while he is
gone. and the wife can put tidy sum In
the savings bank every week besides, as
expenses will of course be less with the
husband away. II he is single he can save
every cent of his wages for the entire dur
alton of the trip.

sit and think till my heart is sore,
While the wolf or the wind keeps shaking the
door,
Or peers at his prey through the window pane
TIL his ravenous eyes burn into my brain.
And cry to myself: "If the wolf be Sin,
He shall not come in-he shall not come in;
But if the wolf be Hunger or Woe,
he VIII come to all men, whether or mol"
T or out in the twilight, stern and grim,
A destiny weaves mans life for him
As the spider weaves his web for flies;
Woe,
A man must fight them, whether or no,
Though oft in the struggle the fighter dies
Tonight cry to God for bread,
Tomorrow night shall be dead;
For the fancies are strange and scarcely sane
That fit like specters through my brain;
And dream of the times long, long ago,
When knew not Sin and Hunger and Woe.
There are three wolves that hunt for men,
And have met the three,
And one is Hunger, and one Is Sin,
And one is Misery;
Three pairs of eyes at the window pane
A 70 burned and branded into my brain
Like signal lights at sea.
