cussion bearing upon the standing of the
senators who have been appointed by gov
ernors, the cases in point being Beckwith,
appointed by the governor of Wyoming,
and Mantle, appointed by the governor of
Montana. Speeches were made by Voor-
hees, Villas, Daniel and Others 4 spirit of
opposition against seating these men was
manifested, and in support of this view a
number of old decisions in senate contest
ed elections were quoted. 1t was finally
decided, however, that these matters, to-
gether with the case of Martin, should be
referred to the committee on privileges
and elections. s
The Question of Reorganization.
Heretofore the party coming into power
has not reorganized the elective officers at
the extra session called for the purpose of
confirming presidential appointments, al
though the Republicans once attempted it;
and whether this rule should be departed
from was question that came up for dis
cussion. A number of conservative sena-
tors favored postponing action in this mat
ter until December, but there was not
lacking such an expression of sentiment as
indicated purpose to make complete
change as speedily as possible.
Left 1t All to Committee.
This together with the whole question of
reorg anization was left to a committee to
be ap pointed by the Democratic steering
committee. When the caucus adjourned the
steering committee consisting of Cor
man, Brice, Cockrell. Ransom and Harris, re
paired to il committee loom and remained
in conference for more than three hours

CAUCUS OF THE DEMOCRATS.

They Invite No Populists to Their Confer
ence-Organization,
WASHINGTON, March S.-The Democratic
caucus which met in the senate chamber at
10 a. m. yesterday was well attended. Just
what course the Democrats intended to
pursue toward the Populists has been a
matter of interesting conjecture since it
was known that the Democrats had clear
majority of their own. The action YES
terday indicates that these Populist sena-
tors are to be ignored. Kyle of North Da-
kota, and Peffer of Kansas, the old Popu-
list Allen, and new Populist elected by Ne
braska, were not invited to attend the eau
Gus, and to this extent at least it would
seem that they have been purposely
neglected. Martins case was, however.
different. He is considered a Democrat
and was present and participated in the
proceedings.

EVERYBODY KNOWS HIM.

A PROMINENT MEMBER OF THE MAINE
LEGIsLATURE-wHAT HE SAYS WILL
RING OVER THE WHOLE LAND, AS THE
TRUMPET ToNGUED UTTERANCEs OF
ONE OF OUR GREAT MEN.
The word of Hon. John r. Prescott,
formerly prominent member of the
Maine legislature, is all powerful.
Mr.. Prescott lives in Rome, Me.
Everybody knows him, everybody re-
spects him and everybody believes what
he says.
2. nd it is an interesting story which he
tells and an eloquent tribute which he
pays.
"Thirty-two years ago." he says, II
was attacked with neuralgiain my face
and head, mostly confined to the right
side. There was not often day or an
hour that was not suffering with that
terrible severe pain, SO severe great
many times that for several days and
nights could not sleep or take any food
excepting little Cruel
my nerves were terribly affected and
1 grew weak and feeble, as my many
friends in the State of Maine, and more
particularly in Kennebec county will GER
tify to.
about five years ago 1 was taken
with what the physicians claim TO De
liver and kidney trouble, a soreness over
the right kidney; so much so that l
could not bear to be rubbed.
'My bowels were very much consti-
pated, could not urnate freely, and suf-
fered severe pain at such times.
my troubles increased very much,
and for the past six months could not
get up from my bed the morning and
dress me before would be in pain in
nv back and bowels.
Il would often be forced TO drop down
and rest me and many times be in such
pain that l would cry like child and
ask why could not die.
II haye used for the neuralgia all the
liniments / have ever seen advertised for
the cure of that disease, and for my
nerves and kidney and liver trouble |
have taken so many remedies that they
are to numerous too mention
II have been treated by the leading
physicians of Maine, have also been To
massachusetts, to be treated by physi-
clans in Boston, and from all have re-
celved very little benefit One eminent
physician said that could not be cured.
and many physicians examined me and
refused to treat me.
II had given mp taking medicine.

about the middle of December, 1892,
my wife had been reading some of the
testimonials of DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy. She told me
she wanted me to try one bottle of the
Nervura.

medicine should She sent to A. p.

and still thank Him that l was induced
to take this wonderful medicine.
Il write this without any solicitation A"
The cure of so prominent and widely
known public man as the Hon. John
r. Prescott has created an immense stir
throughout the entire State of Maine.
His friends and acquaintance are sur
prised, nay, amazed, at his cure, for they
had long looked upon his recovery as
hopeless. People are calling on him
from New Sharon, Mercer, Belgrade, Mt.
Vernon and Rome, and people are writing
him from all over the county, inquiring
about the remarkable facts of his cure

"wHY IS HE so IRRITABLEg"

This question is often heard and nearly
as often unanswered.
1t is not always remembered, as it
should be, that the occasion of ill-temper
and irritability is often to be fourd in
the physical condition of the persons af-
fected. What is the use of 'rying to
"harmonize" man whose liver has gone
back on him? Ii man is tortured with
rheumatism, how can he be expected to
be affable and agreeable? Can con-
firmed dyspeptic be expected to be
cheerful and always ready to tell funny
story? The only way to remove the diff
fculty is to get at the cause. Dyspepsia
rheumatism, impure blood and liver
troubles yield to Hoods Sarsaparilla;
this is why it is an effective tranquilizer,
peaceful messenger, and a preventive
of quarrels.

Queries Of "A correspondent regarding the

lece of William and Mary. &C., &c.
On September Q. 1862, the Federal troops
fired the main college building, destroying
much of the library and all the apparatus
of the chemical department, DC. The
walls. however, were not destroyed, and
the present walls are the same a. we're
originally built beginning In 1893. Ihe
original construction was very gradual,
and the last WING was not completed until
1892. r,.,
lectures are held. the Federal troops tore

finds left by Hon. Robert Boyle, who was
the first 20 carry the philosophy of Francis
Bacon into chemistry and the natural
sciences. Nothing was lett OF the Brader-
ton but the solid walls aud the roof.
The Federal troops also destroyed the
fences and made havoc OF the grounds OF
the institution.
The original tract-3OO acres-was pur-
chased of Captain Thomas Ballard. son OF
Colonel Thomas Ballard. of the Virginia
Council. aud the plan of the main building
was designed by Sir Christopher Wren,
who designed the great church-St. PauPs
in London. Ii was intended TO be an en-
tire SQUARE with an open court IN the CEN

buildings never reached beyond front
and two wings.
The present attendance at the college
is greater than at any period OF its his
