its attention to the internal revenue
schedule. Messrs. McMillin. Bryan and

that the increase in the whisky tax, il
any increase be made, will not exceed 1G
cents per gallon, and the changes in the
tobacco schedule will be very slight and
directed rather to more logical classical
tions than to an increase in the tax.

a nearby town. lie came to Helena not
long ago, and starting out with consider
able sum of money soon became utterly I'M

down to sleep in the middle of Main street.
An officer found him there, and calling
hack put him into it and took him to the
city hall. He was searched and nearly 500

hackman was paid, and the visitor was
given bed in the Jail. The next morning
he was duly sober, and after breakfast he
was told he could go, no charge being made

Bill Nyc In London.

The first house dinner of the season is
always great evenbat the Savage club,
and the convivial party that gathered
around Sir Augustus Harris on Satur-
day night in no respect fell short of the
standard of former years. Among the
entertained and entertaining no one COM
manded more lively attention than Bill
Nye, the popular American humorist,
who has been in London for few days,
and will very likely be heard by still
larger audiences before recrossing the
Atlantic.
Mr.. Edgar William Nye is 43, but he
looks older. He might pass for lead
ing chancery barrister or q benignant
professor, with his well shaped Uranium,
the contours of which are concealed by
no hirsute growth, his round, clean
shaven chin and his gold trimmed spec
tacles. There is indeed nothing of the
typical Yankee in his appearance, as
there was in the somewhat cadaverous
and angular visage of poor Artemus
Ward. He favored the Savages with
one or two yarns, which he told in quiet,
deliberate, unaffected style, his voice
having but the faintest echo of the Amer
lean twang, while his stories depended
for their point on n subtle sense of hui
NOR rather than on the exaggerated use
of explosives and the startling effects OF

funny productions of the far west.-Pan

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND was no more dis
turbed by the seeming discourtesy of the
senate in adopting resolution asking for
copies of all state department documents
relating to Hawaii, than he was by the
senseless clamor which followed the publ
cation of Secretary Gresham's recon-
mendatIon on the same subject some weeks
ago. Before the resolution was introduced
he had given orders that all of the docu-
ments be copied for the purpose of send
ing them to congress with the special mes
sage on the subject which he stated in his
annual message would shortly be sent IN.
The message and accompanying documents
are all ready and they will go to the senate
this week, and some of those documents
will not make pleasant reading for republi-
cans, either in or out of congress. They
will show a long series of plotting that is
entirely opposite to what has always been
the recognized foreign policy of the
United States.
