Proceedings in Congress in Rr;ef

WASHINGTON, Sept. 7-Cullom intro
duced in the senate a bill to repeal all
sinking fund acts. Voorhees, had his res
olution for early sessions laid over for the
present. Morgan made a long speech on
his bill for a financial commission, and at
its conclusion VOORHEES, moved to take uu
the regular order-the repeal bill. 1t
would have been taken up anyhow in
seven minutes, but the vote was pointer
and resulted in favor of the motion 81 to
21-the free silver men voting no. Stewart
then continued his speech to a small
house until O'Clock, when a motion for
an executive session by Voorhees, was car.
ried and fifteen minutes later the senate
adjourned. The silver men are growing
a good deal because they have to speak to
empty benches.
In the house the rules committee aban-
doned the proposition that 100 shall be a
quorum in the committee of the whole
not because the rule WAS wrong, but be
carse so many Democrats opposed it. The
rule was stricken out and the rules adopt-
ted. The house then adjourned to Satur-
day.
The vote on Morgan's resol ution in the
senate sends il to the calendar and 1t will
require majority vote to take it up.

CLIMAX OF THE FESTIVITIES.
The Pageantry Parade and What Was
Shown on the Floats

The Pageantry Parade and What Was
Shown on the Floats
Today the great pageantry parade took
place, and was seen by tens of thousands
Notwithstanding that many of the visitors
had gone home The railways had
brought into the city since the influx be-
gan 100000 strangers and they were still
coming yesterday. 1t was a brilliant
sight. The parade was opened and closed
by the Sons of Veterans, who also acted
as escort and banner carriers. All the
floats were enthusiastically cheered and
many of the cheers were not wholly for
the beauty of the groups, but because
some friend or relative, male or female,
was taking a part on the float
Among the events shown were the fol-
lowing: washington Crossing the Della
ware" manned by members of the George
H. Thomas post, and in charge of Fred
erick Noelke; "Washington and Cornwall
lis at Yorktown" manned by members of
Sheridan post and Gresham camp, Sons of

ture of the Volunteers" manned by Chap
man. spest and in charge of A. Metzer;
"Civil War Battle Scene" manned by
German veterans and in charge of j. Neu-

A feature of the parade that attracted
attention was the "Monitor and the Merri-
mac'' IN action, two floats; then came elm

which had watched its progress with the

mary ways, principally by cheers, dis
persed slowly and reluctantly, as If it
would like to see it all again.

NEW STYLE OF ROBBERY.
Attempt to Hold Up Train by Mounted
Desperado, Perhaps.

ARKANSAS CITY, Kan, Sept. 7-As the
northbound Santa Fe passenger train
pulled out of Orlando on the southern
boundary of the strip man riding horse
started out alongside the train. When
just outside of the town the train started
up heavy grade, the horseman caught
dp with the express car. He tried to get
in the door from the back of the horse.
The messenger realizing an attempt was
being made to rob the express car in a
novel manner opened fire on him.
The ground on which he was riding be-
ing rough his horse, after stumbling sew
eral times, fell on his knees, throwing the
would-be robber over his head. The ex-
press messenger fired a parting shot at the
man on the ground. The shooting attrac-
ted the attention of the passengers, who
filled the car windows with their heads
and two of them took shots at the reced-
ing horseman.

4 Cure For Insomnia.

Old Captain Ellison and his wife Han nah of Nantucket had lived in peace and comfort together for 20 years, the cap tain having left off going to sea early in life and adopted home staying pur- suit, but at the end of all these years, in which he and Hannah had not been sep arated for a single day, he was unexpect- edly called to Boston on necessary busi- ness, to be gone month.
 One of the neighbors called few days afterward. ''Well, well, Hammer" said she, II sh'd think t I'd be purity lonesome Twin here without the cap'n." "Lonesome! exclaimed Hannah. 'I cd stand that, but laws a-massy! How wus to go to sleep nights without hearin Elnathan snorin? Fust two nights I couldn't sleep, nohow cd fix it."
 "Go to sleep now all right?" "Yes."
 "How'd ye manage itF' "Well, you see, Maria Folger she keeps boarders next door, an got her to come in an rig up her coffee mill t the foot O the bed, an every night she comes in an grinds her coffee jest after I've gone to bed. Mercy! You couldn't tell it from Elnathan's snorin, an of course I go right off to sleep"
 Hannah's eyes twinkled, and we fear she loved a joke more than she loved the truth.-4outh's Companion.

one pearl or great price, went ana sold all that he had and bought it."
 But what thrills me with suggestive ness is the material out of which all pearls are made. They are fashioned from the wound of the shellfish. The emulation from that wound is fixed and hardened and enlarged into pearl. The ruptured vessels of the water animal fashioned the gem that now adorns finger or earring or sword hilt or kings crown.
 So out of the wounds of earth will come the pearls of heaven. Out of the wound of conviction the pearl of pardon. Out of the wound of bereavement the pearl of solace. Out of the wound of loss the pearl of gain. Out of the deep wound of the grave the pearl of resurrection joy. Out of the wounds of Saviour's life and Saviour's death the rich, the radiant, the everlasting pearl of heaven ly gladness.
 .'And the 12 gates were 12 pearls. !" Take the consolation, all ye who have been hurt, whether hurt in body, or hurt in mind, or hurt in soul. Get your trou- bles sanctifed. If you suffer with Christ on earth, you will reign with him in glory. The tears of earth are the crys- tals of heaven. Every several gate was of one pearl"

The Potent Hawaiian pick-me-up.

Poi is made from the root of the tago plant. The tago grows in the water, and its broad leaves float upon the surface. It has root very similar to the turnip, but of more elongated form. It is pre- pared by grating it upon a slightly hol- lowed volcanic stone upon which water is poured from time to time. The whole eventually forms a paste, which under goes slight fermentation and is pleas ant to the taste There is drink on the islands known as ''poi cocktail" It is made by stirring the paste into 8 glass of milk. Its virtues were discerned many years ago by Europeans. For the ''head' which follows nights debauch there is nothing like it.
 When the stomach absolutely refuses anything known to civilization; when the throat is dry and burning, the voice husky, the temple throbbing and the hands shaking, the poi cocktail is swal- lowed. It is almost instantly assimilated. A delicious feeling of calm and rest steals over the patient. The paste GOV CTS the infamed walls of the stomach and protects them. The throat becomes once more of flesh, not fire, and the head ceases to ache in 15 minutes.-Pittsburg Dispatch.
