The SD Congress.

The Senate of the SD Congress in
executive session unanimously con-
firmed President Cleveland's appoint
ments of members of his cabinet. The
corridors and galleries were crowded.
When Vice-President Stevenson made
his appearance in company with Rev.
Mr.. Butler, chaplain of the Senate, the
spectators broke into round of hand
clapping. This ceased only when the
prayer began, and was renewed when
the Vice-President took his place as
presiding officer. Mr.. Pruden, one of
the Presidents secretaries, appeared
and delivered message from the Pres
ident of the United States transmitting
the cabinet nominations and thereupon
the Senate went into executive session.
The doors had been closed about Is
minutes and then they were reopened,
the cabinet having been in the mean
time unanimously confirmed.
Mr.. Sherman said that he desired to
introduce joint resolution to amend
the constitution. 1t proposes that the
terms of Office of the President and
Vice-President and saith Congress shall
continue until noon of the 30th of
April, 1897, that the senators whose
terms would expire on the 4th of
March, 1897, shall continue in office
until noon of the 30th of April and that
time shall hereafter be substituted for
the 4th of March as the commencement
and termination of the official terms
of the President, Vice-President, SEN
ators and Representatives in Congress.
The resolution was tabled for the pre-
sent and the Senate adjourned.

10 Persons Killed by a Failing wall.

10 Persons Killed by n Failing Wall.
The wall of building which was
lately burned at 767 Halstead street
Chicago was blown down. 1t fell upon
a two-story brick building at 765 Hal
stead street occupied by the families
of John Smith, a saloon-keeper, and
James Kunze, n jeweler Ten people
were killed by the falling wall.
The building which collapsed was
owned by John York, a large dealer in
dry goods, and was destroyed by fire a
few weeks ago. 1t was five stories
high, nearly $50 feet deep and had a
heavy front of white stone. York be-
gan to rebuild Immediately after the
fire and as not all of the walls were
down he had built the new wall on
the top of what remained of the old
one. 1t is supposed that the green
wall was not sufficiently braced, al
though York said that both the con-
tractor and himself believed it to be
entirely secure.
The weather during the early part
of the evening was calm with little
rain falling, but about IL p. IN. the
wind began to rise and by midnight 1t
had increased to a gale. The high
walls of the York building began to
shake in the wind and a policeman
who passed in the front of It shortly
before it fell informed the Canal Port
avenue station that he thought il would
bear watching. He was told TO
look at it closely and if in his mind
there was any danger to warn the oc-
cupants of the neighboring buildings
to move out. He turned back to the
building and when within 200 feet Of
it there was a deafening roar. A large
white dust cloud, and a succession of
shrieks from the building occupied by
the Smith and Kunze families. A large
force of men were soon at work and 10
bodies were removed from the debris
in horribly mutilated condition.

ROYAL WELCOME HOME.
Ex-President Harrison Greeted by His In
dianapolis Friends.

II was a royal welcome home that
Indianapolis gave ex-President Benja-
min Harrison. The day was bright
and sunny, the city gaily decorated
and the streets crowded with men,
women and children, all eager to honor
the noble SON of Indiana who for four
years has filled the highest Office in the
land with credit to himself, his state
and the nation. The decorations was
one in which politics played no part.
General Harrison's special train from
Washington had been met in German
town, near the state line, by a recep-
ton committee. Stops were made at
Richmond and other places and the
honored citizen of Indiana was given
impromptu receptions. Upon arriving
at indianapolis the presidential party
was met by thousands of citizens. The
business buildings and residences along
the line of march, from the Union sta
ton to the new Denison hotel, were
festooned with flags and bunting, and
many OF Gen. Harrison's pictures were
displayed. In the evening a general
reception took place at the state house
at which time Gov. Matthews delivered
an address on behalf of the state, and
Hon. G. w. Fairbanks spoke for the
citizens of Indianapolis. Mr.. Harri-
sons reply was characteristic and was
full of kind regard for his many friends
and neighbors.
Fully $4,000 people gathered at the
state house to bid the distinguished
citizen welcome, and greeted him with
the most enthusiastic demonstration.
1t seemed as though the crowd could
not cheer enough.
In the afternoon General Harrison
and Mrs Mckee visited Crown Hill
cemetery to visit Mrs. Harrison's
grave, spending about half an hour
there. The ex-President showed much
emotion, and the burrows of his face
indicate TO all the burden of grief he
bears.

HloH-PRIcED EXPERIENCE.


He Knew That the Modest Hat Was.
Best, hut Paid for HIS Learning.
Experience" said young Mr.. Rush
err, sis the teacher that / best like to
pay"
That was several weeks ago.
Last Wednesday Mrs. Rusher went
down town to buy a hat, says the
Detroit Free Press. Like the dutiful
little wife that she is, she went
around to her husbands Office and
asked for an expression of his taste.
"Come," said he, "we1l look at
some of the windows and I'll show
you what like"
BY and by they stood where a sign
announced that "Paris bonncts" and
"London hats" were on sale. The
young married pair looked over the
display.
II want a nice hat" said Mrs.
Rusher, "but not an expensive one"
She poised to a pretty thing with
a profusion OF red flowers and some
rich-looking trimming on it.
In her innermost soul she thought
it a cheap-looking affair, but for the
sake of economy she would forego a
better one. In his innermost soul he
thought it horribly extravaganza and
then he said:
Don't you think, dear, that that
is trine loud for one of your deli
cate senses and refined appearancegf
She murmured something o.
thanks.
Yes" he went on, Il must say
that l don't like a hat of that sort.
Now, over there-that big one with
the plumes and one red rose-there's
simplicity for YOU"
In his, innermost heart he felt
mean, for in reality the hat looked
cheap to him. Mrs. Rusher only
said:
"very well, dear, your taste shall
prevail"
And so they parted, Mrs. Rusher
bound for her milliner's; Mr.. Rusher
speedily and gaily headed for his
office.
1t was two weeks before he got the
bill. In the meantime he had come
to like the hat immensely. Mrs.
Rusher seemed delighted with il.
Then the young husband found p
little letter awaiting him at the Office.
Here it is:
PARIS BoNNETs
THE LOUVRE MILLINERs.
To Mr. Legal Rusher, DIR.
To one hat. 1880
Those plumes, my DEAR" Mrs.
Rusher explained, "are the best.
That piece OF felt is very fine and
those flowers are imp"
"Mrs. Rusher," the young man
said, what was the price of that
other hat?"
IF you must know, Legal, dear"
smiled the sweet little wife, cit was
hold-over, marked down to $798."
In little book that Mr.. Legal
Rusher keeps he has lately added
this item:

FREE TRADE KILLED.
Tho Canadian Parliament Votes Against
Reduced Tariff


Reduced Tariff
The great battle for tariff reform
which had been raging in parliament
at Ottawa, Ont, has ended and the re-
form movement has lost. Hon. Will
fred Laurier, Liberal leader, delivered
very effective speech at the close.
He declared the policy of protection
adopted by the present government
was responsible for the enormous de-
probation of land values and the
exodus of thousands of Canadians to
the United States. He declared boldly
for unrestricted reciprocity with the
United States and revenue reform.
Hon. M. Foster, minister of finance
replied upon behalf of the government.
He said reciprocity meant the assimila-
ton of tariffs and such a policy Cana
dams would never accept, because it
meant ultimate political union with
the United States. The government
favored closer trade relations, but
would never agree TO a bargain which
involved the substitution of the Am
erican for the British flag.
1t was o'clock in the morning when
the members were called in and
divided on SIR Richard Cartwright S

County Seat War in Berrien County.

Berrien Springs is the county seat of
Berrien county. Its only railroad is
the st. Joseph's Valley running south.
There is hack service three miles to
Berrien Center, Big Four station, but
now the ticket Office at the Center has
been abolished and the trains simply
stop. Berrien Springs must have bet
ter railroad facilities when spring
opens or Benton Harbor or Niles or
Coloma will capture the county seat.
Berrien Springs people say they will
have railroad. 1t may be an extern
sion of the ST. Joseph Valley to Benton
Harbor and the lake. 1t may be a
branch of the Baltimore & Ohio from
Nappanee, Ind, TO Benton Harbor, pas
sing by the Springs. Among all these
projects Berrien Springs hopes there is
one that will bring the coveted rail
road. Meanwhile the rival cities
are agitating the removal of the
county seat to some point more access
sible to all points of the county.

THE reduction OF registration Of
letters to eight cents is gratifying,
not only 20 the public, but to postof-
fee clerks, who have been much
bothered by the old law. 1t is hard
to make many who register letters
see that the extra two cents for
postage was still needed after the
registry fee was paid. The registra-
tion business will probably pay the
government more at eight cents than
at the old figure. 1t will make reg
istry clerks work little harder, but
that will not hurt most of them.

possibility of adjusting the working
