WHEN WILL CONGRESS ADJOURN ?
The Question Discussed by All Parties at
Washington,

WAsHINGToN, Aug. %. - An impress
sion is growing about the capitol that
the present extraordinary session of
Congress may come to an end about
the middle of September. This appears
to be based upon confidence in the
possibilities of compromise being
entered into within that period upon the
financial question. Nearly all important
legislation accomplished in recent years
has been the result of compromise and the
outcome of conference committees.
These persons who hold to the opinion
that adjournment is possible next month
say that Mr. Vests proposition to provide
for the free coinage of silver at ratio Of
90 to | will be passed by the Senate sard
ultimately will become part Of the bill
for unconditional repeal, which, it is ex-
pected, will be passed by the House. The
likelihood of veto by President Clevel.nS
of such a measure has been DISCOUNTED by
the believers in the reported early ai-
1ournment. They argue that it would be
impossible to rally two-thiris vote in
either House to pass it over his veto, and.
that nothing could be accomplished SO far
as the financial situation Is concerned by
Congress remaining In session after such u
veto was received. The more experien ced
watchers OF political events place no con
hdence in these early adjournment theories.

An Unpleasant Country.
SOME OF THE OBJECTIONS TO LIVING IN
NORTHERN BoRNEo.

The northern hal of the island of
Borneo is the queerest and most un-
satisfactory place to live that one can
Imagine, thinks the St Louis Globe.
democrat. II is land of constant
recurring phenomena, where cyclones
are frequent and deluges of water very
common. The vegetation in that half
is very fine, but in all probability the
widest and most tangled on earth
not even excepting that of Africa. The
cause of all the trouble is the shallow
condition Of the sea north of it. great
shoals Of sand existing a few miles out
which extend along its entire northern
length. These shoals are covered by
depth of water not over five feet
deep. The constantly recurring winds
that blow in that climate change to
hurricanes and sweep the smaller
Islands of all visible life. When such
storm strikes the sand shoals north
OF Borneo it sweeps up the shallow
salt water in its course and drenches
the island with it. Often it gathers
up sand, great masses of it, from the
clearswept shoal and whirls it for
miles high over the island, carrying it
into the island and scattering it every
where. The work of these storms
does not always end with that. En-
tire shoals Of fish, of all sizes, have
been swept up time and again by the
fierce wind with the water and sand
and scattered about Borneo. In some
places the ground would be literally
covered with fish, enough 70 supply a
heavy population for weeks. But such
luck is no reparation for the evil the
winds do, and consequently the north
ern half will never be inhabited by
those who value their lives.

Pluck of an Opera Singer.
HOW RUBINI ONCE BROKE HIS COLLAR
BONE, BUT FINISHED THE PERFOR-
NANCE.

Fifty years ago European audiences
listened with rapt admiration to Ru-
bini, tenor Of whom it was said that,
though he himself could not act, he
made his voice act for him, says a
writer in the Philadelphia Press. The
intensity Of expression he gave to his
voice, the judicious use of the tremolo,
and the management of light and
shade produced a thrilling effect. But
his best vocal feat consisted in taking
the bass of the upper stave without
preparation, thus retaining it for a
long time, and then letting it imper-
ceptibly die away. The listeners
could hardly believe their ears. The
adventurous are always on the edge OF
danger. On one occasion Rubini,
after repeating this vocal feat, and
being second time encored, found
himself unable to produce the expect
ed note. Determined not to fail, he
gathered up his vocal strength and
made supreme effort. The note
came with Its wonted power, brllliancy
and duration, but at the cost of a
broken collar bone. A surgeon ex-
amined the singer and found that the
tension of the lungs had been too
powerful for the strength of his collar
bone. Two months rest would be
required to reunite the clavicle, and
this the singer declared to be impos-
sible, as he had only finished several
days of long engagement.
Scan sing at all with a broken
collar bone ?" he asked.
eyes it will make no difference in
your voice." answered the surgeon.
but you must avoid lifting heavy
weights, and any undue exertion-
above all, you must leave the B fiat
alone"
Rubini continued to sing with a
broken clavicle until the termination
of the engagement.

The Term Yankee"
VARIOUS THEORIES WHICH HAVE BEEN
ADVANCED AS TO IT'S ORIGIN.

The theories which have been adj
vanced as to the origin OF the name
Yankees are numerous. According
to Thierny, it was corruption of ia.
kin, 4 diminutive Of John, which was
nickname given by the Dutch colo.
nists of New York to their neighbors
in the Connecticut settlements.
In 4 history of the American war
written by DR.. William Gordon and
published in 1880 was another theory.
DIR. Gordon said that it was cant
word in Cambridge, Mass, as early as
1913, used to denote especial excl
lence-as yankee good horse, yam.
kee good cider, etc. He supposed
that it was originally byword in the
college, and being taken by the stu
dents into parts of the country gradu-
ally obtained general currency in New
England, and at length came to oe
taken up in other parts Of the country
ard applied to New Englanders as a
term of slight reproach.
Aubury, an English writer, says that
it is derived from Cherokee word
eankee-which signifies coward and
slave. This epithet was bestowed up
on the inhabitants of New England by
the Virginians for not assisting them
in war with the Cherokees. The
most probable theory, however, is that
advanced by Mr.. Heckewelder-that
the Indians in endeavoring to pro.
nounce the word English, or Anglais,
made it Yengees or Yangees and this
originated the term.

A Boys Pluck.
NINE YEAR-OLD DAVID CAPTURES !
THIRTY TWO POUND CARP.

An exciting combat between a nine
year old boy and thirty-two pound
German carp took place on James
Moore's farm, near Bristol says the
Philadelphia Record. The Neshaminy
creek in rainy seasons fills the bitches
of adjacent farms with water from
eighteen inches to two feet deep. The
other day David Cherry, the young
son of John Cherry, of this place, and
two small companions went fishing up
the creek. In one of the open bitches
on the Moore farm the lads espied
three huge carp Topping about, the
water being too shallow for them to
swim without greatly disturbing the
surface. David, pluckier than his
playmates, jumped into the ditch and
seized the largest of the monster fish.
The carp, nearly as big as the boy,
had the advantage, being in its native
element. Young Cherry had tight
hold of it, but the carp plunged
through the water and mud, dragging
the lad behind. The boys on shore
thought their companion would surely
be drowned, for often his whole body
was under water. At last the fish
grew SO weary in his mighty efforts to
escape his captor that he could be
thrown out upon tie bank. Then all
three boys jumped upon the carp and
held him to the ground until he had
gasped out his life. They lugged
their trophy home and put it on the
scales. The fish weighed thirty-two
pounds.

Gresham and Blount Both silent.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-The conference
between Secretary Gresham and Minister
Blount did not begin for more than an
hour after Mr.. Blount arrived at the State
Department, owing to the non appearance

two considered them at length. Mr.. Gres

callers Of prominence who sent in their
cards and Secretary Lamont was fortunate
enough to get only few minutes with
him. When the conference was over Sec

statement whatever or to give even an ide,,
OF the result of his talk with the Minister.
Mr. Blount was quite as reticent and re-

A Wonderful Bird Weaver.
HOW THE BALTIMORE oRIoLE BUILDS
HIS coy SWINGING NEST.

The Baltimore orio,e is a prince in
house of princes, says writer in
Scrlbner's Magazine. The family to
which he belongs is composed of birds
remarkable either for plumage, note,
nest, eggs or habit. Each can claim
something curious and original but
the Baltimore shines in every one of
these particulars, for in plumage, song
and nest alike he is an especially re-
markablc bird. When the earl of
Baltimore became the lord Of Mary.
land his followers quickly noticed the
correspondence between his heraldic
livery of orange and black and the
orange and black of the splendid bird
that so abounded in the new estates,
SO that, very naturally, the name "Bal
tlmore bird" was suggested and has
been borne ever since.
His nest is one of the most wonder
ful examples of bird weaving in exist
ence, horsehair or strips of bark, close.
ly interviewer into sort of sack. and
so firmly knit together that it will bear
a weight of twenty or thirty pounds.
In the southern parts of this BIRDS
range the nest is suspended from two
or three terminal twigs for protection
from numerous enemies, such as snakes,
opossums and the like it is also made
six or seven inches in depth to pre-
vent the eggs being thrown out by the
high winds. But in the colder north,
where tree climbing foes are rare, it la
hung, not at the extremity of the
branches, but in cluster of twlgs that
affords shelter. 1t is much. shallower
than when exposed to the wind, but is
very thickly woven and lined with soft,
warm materials. The orioles loud
iife,like notes ringing from the high
tree-tops in the morning are an ample
refutation of the old theoIy that mel
ody and bright plumage have never
been bestowed on the same bird.
