PETERS BAR OF GOLD.
The Populist Senator Gives an
 Object Lesson.
A OoLoRED CONGRESSMAN SPEAKS

The Senate Amused by a Scene Furnished
 by Stewart and Psner-In the House the
 Silver Debate Was EnIivcned by Some
 Short Speeches.
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 25-A rather anus ing scene took place in the senate chamber on the question as to whether Mir. Peffer or Mir. Stewart should have the privilege of addressing the senate. Each had given notice of his intention to speak, but both had been crowded out by the discussion of MT. Petfer's resolution as to the national banks
 The Kansas senator claimed precedence because he had been the first to give the notice, while the Nevada senator insisted that that had nothing to do with the ques. tion and that as he had been already recog- niZcd by the chair he was entitled to the floor
 The vice president took that view of the situation and recognized Mir. Stewart s rights. As the latter then offered to yield to MT. Peffer the vice president treated that offer as an abandonment of the floor and immediately recognized MT. Peffer, who thereupon began a three hours speech on the silver question.
 MT. Pef1er's Bar of Gold.
 He went on to argue that it was the gov eIhlueul nlnlaRe that gave the legal len der quality to gold as we'll as to silver. and he illustrated his argument by the exhibit of gold eagle and bar of gold of exactly the same weight and purity. The eagle was legal tender in payment of all debts, but the bar was not.
 Why is it. he said, that this coin is money and this bar is not?"
 He wished to hold up the bar to view, but to the amusement of the senate he could not lay his hand on it. "I do not know where the bar is, he said with an air of surprise. and he was advised by Mir. Butler that he had better keep his eye on it
 Having recovered the bar. he said that the coin was money and the bar a com modity, and that therefore they were not of equal value. The coin was worth $l0 and the bar was worth only SS Su.
 He was followed by another Populist senator, Mir. Allen of Nebraska, who spoke for an hour and half in support of his amendment proposing to add to the Noor. hees bill provision for the free and un. limited coinage of silver at the ratio oi 16 to l.
 Mir. Petfer's speech was interrupted tc allow the regular business to be presented That was the motion to lay on the table the motion to reconsider the vote whereby the senate declared Mir. Lee Mantle not en. titled to seat as senator from Montana Notice was given by Mir. Vance that he would call up the question at l p. m. to day

CHAPTER NXIN.
4 Strange Proposal.

Having decided upon his course of ac-
ton Simon Kenton moved promptly.
Strding TO where the sullen chieftain
sat with his back against the side of
the fiatboat. he griped one of his arms
and fairly lifted him to his feet The
Panther was able to stand erect, but
with the rigid thongs about his ankles
could not take step.
Flinging one arm about his waist,
with his other hand grasping his rife,
the scout raised him as though he were
a child walked to the other side of the
boat and leaning over the gunwale care
fully set his burden i'm the canoe float
ing al the side of the larger craft. He
did this so deftly that the smaller boat
was scarcely disturbed. Then he sat
down, laid his rife i'm front of himself.
unfastened the canoe and lifted the
paddle.
"Younker." he said, looking up at
George Ashbridge, who had followed him
to the gunwale. stand there with the
hammer of your gun raised; you're not
to do anything to the varmint onless
something happens to me. Do you un-
derstand?"
II do; if hair on your head is harmed
it's good-by. Mr. Panther"
That's it; but don't be too quick;
you'll know of sartinty if ! go un-
der"
Everyone on board watched the pro-
ceedings with breathless interest All
felt that the crisis of their venture had
come, and the next few minutes would
decide the fate of the little party.
If the Shawanoes harmed the daring
Kenton their chieftain would receive not
a seconds grace at the hands of young
Ashbridge In turn the infufiated hos
tiles would deny mercy to every man,
woman and child on the fatboat
Everything now depended on the re-
ception given to Kenton.
Ashbridge and Altman stood near the
bow, each with rifle grasped ready for
instant use. Even Jethro Juggens was
impressed with the gravity of the sit
uation. for he. too, held his gun ready
for instant use and was silent Despite
his sluggish intellect and seeming stu
pidity he was one of the best marxsmen
in the party, and under proper direction
would prove a valuable ally.
He had been warned not to fire with
out orders and he promised to obey.
Mrs. Altman and Agnes sat as close
to the husband and father as they could
place themselves without interfering
with his freedom of movement, and Mrs.

regards Mr.. Ashbridge. George held
his post at the stern, his gun clasped in
both hands and the muzZle lowered, but
in position for prompt use whenever
necessary. while he never removed his
eyes from the canoe and its occupants,
except to glance at the house, now of
profounder interest than ever before.
Several Of those on the boat expected
the Shawanoes within the building TO
snow themselves at the windows, but
they kept out of sight, and but for the
assurance OF Kenton his friends could
not have believed that a living soul
was within the structure.
The fiatboat lay so comparatively near
shore that 1t took but brief while for
the scout to paddle the distance. While
doing so he faced the prisoner and thus
had his back toward the clearing, but

AN ORIENTAL TALE.
A Delicate Point Settled by the Wis
dom of the CRdi.

Sir said Abdullah, as he appeared
with his sister Fatima, before the judge,
perhaps you will remember the brave
Abbas, who died thirty years ago. He
was our father, and left both of US his
property in equal portions. on which we
have hitherto subsisted in common.
Fatima. ii is true, has been peevish and
quarrelsome during the last few years,
but ! always gave way. as / am lover
Of peace. But l have recently chosen
the beautiful Zoraida for my bride, and
thought of giving her this valuable
string of pearls-the most precious keep
sake of my father in my possession, for
he gave it to me on his return from
journey when / was five years Old and
1t has been mine ever since.
But Fatima will have it that the
pearls are part of our fathers legacy.
and claims half of them as her share.
She refuses to listen to my arguments
and insists upon her claim, not, indeed,
for the sake of the pearls; oh, no! 1 see
quite PLAINLY she wants to spoil my
pleasure and that of my bride-elect, for
my sister does not like the idea of 10
raida entering the paternal house as
mistress. Now, wise cadi, give me judg-
ment."
The cadi bowed his head and said:
"Fatima, is the case as your brother
stated?"
1T is all quite correct excepting the
assertion that the string of pearls be
longs to him alone. How does he mean
to prove that father gave Ii to him? /
dispute the fact and claim my share;
my reason for so doing is immaterial to
the question at issue"
well Abdullah," said the cadi. ad-
dressing the plaintiff, have you any liv-
ing witnesses or any handwriting to
prove that your father gave you the
pearls
u have nothing Of the kind, was the
reply.
''That is a bad OUTLOOK the cadi con-
tinued. Il fear there is no prospect of
an amicable settlement by persuading
your sister to accept sum of money
for her snare"
mo" she broke in. 81 want half of
the pearls
Very WELL" said the cadi, reckoning
to his clerk; 81 must have a report of
the case drawn up before delivering judg-
ment. Say. defendant, your name is
Fatima What is your age?'
Here size bluShed, hesitated, tried more
than once to speak, but never uttered
syllable.
How old are you?' the cadi repeated
Speak"
At last she replied in faltering tones:
Il am twenty-eight."
Really" said the judge. with an
ironical smile. II hereby award the
whole string of pearls TO Abdullah alone
Take them. plaintiff, and go your way in
peace Fatima is not your sister, for
Abbas died thirty years ago, and she
is only twenty-eight.'-Fli BIat-

A Battle Monument.

The monument which has been erected
upon the battlefield of Solferino is one
of the largest. if not the largest. of it's
kind in all Europe. 1t consists Of a tower
seventy-four meters high. surmounted
by an electric lamp. and rises in seven
stories. each representing campaign in
the struggle for the independence Of TIA
w. Each separate story contains all the
names of the generals and other officers,
as we'll as the men who fought in the
campaign. No fewer than seven hun
dred thousand names are thus inscribed
on the inner walls of the monument.
On the ground floor are the busts and
portraits of all the leading generals, and
the chief ornament in the center Of the
ground floor is the colossal monument in
bronze of Victor Emmanuel by the We
netian sculptor Dial Soto. The tower
stands in grounds beautifully laid out,
and constitutes a magnificent memoir
ial of Italian unity. Beneath the struc-
ture repOse 900 skulls and other remains
of soldiers of the three nations who fell
on the field of SOlferino.

he continually glanced over his shoulder,
as though expecting some demonstration
from his enemies.
None was made and he drove the nose
of the canoe up the bank, where it
stuck fast.
''Wa-on-mon," he said. before rising
from his seat. Il reckon you understand
matters, but to prevent any mistake, I'll
explanify. I'm going to leave you in
the canoe while / go forward to have
pow-wow with your folks in the cabin;
I'll agree that if they come out and
leave us alone, I'll set you free, but If
they draw a bead on me, that young
man standing on the boat with his gun
ready, will let daylight through you
quicker'n lightning, and wind up all
your warpath business. Or. if ii can be
fixed that you and me will fight it out
alone, I'm agreeable"
The black eyes flashed at the last re-
mark, but The Panther replied with no
little dignity:

How RepuIsive

Is bad breath, and yet how many other
wise attractive. polite and particular
people affiict their friends with the foul
odor of their breath. If there was no
remedy for this il might excite our SYM
pathy, but as there is no need of hav-
ing foul breath 1t is an objectionable
breach of good manners to obtrude such
an offense on good society.
Foul breath arises from disordered di-
gestion. which can be corrected by using
Sulphur Bitters, and the result will be
pure sweet breath.
