Dull In the House.

The second days session of the house
was dismally dull. Not spark of in
terest enlivened the proceedings. The
only thing of moment accomplished
beyond the passage of several small
bills affecting land titles in the far west
was an agreement to close the general
debate on the bankruptcy bill today.
This materially advances the parlia-
mentary stage of the bill
AS soon as general debate closes the
bill will be open to amendment and de-
bate under the five-minute rule. Colonel
Oates. in charge, is anxious to bring
the bill to vote, and, with general de-
bate at an end, he expresses himself as
confident Of succeeding before the tariff
portance sidetracks it.

srence to the dwelling of u Statue In
ststuary Hall.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-When the SEN
ate met at noon Tuesday the appear
ance of the chamber was in striking
contrast with the scene presented Mon
day. The galleries were all but vacant.
and less than 30 senators were present
to hear the chaplain's prayer. A
quiescent air prevailed during the read
ing of the journal and senators busted
themselves in correspondence or list
lessly glanced over newspapers.
The vice president laid before the
senate communication from Governor
Altgeld of Illinois advising the senate
that the state of Illinois, in pursuance
of the invitation extended to the states
by congress, had caused to be made and
placed in statuary hall of the national
Capitol statue in bronze of General
James Shields. one of Illinois most dis
tinguished warriors and statesmen.
The communication stated that the
statue would be unveiled at p. M. on
Dec. 6. 1893, and invited the friendly
cooperation of the senate.
Among the petitions presented was
one by Mr.. Dolph (Rep Orr of the
Oregon Horticultural society. favoring
the maintenance of the present duty on
prunes.
Mr.. Hoar offered a resolution (for
which he asked present consideration,
requesting the president. 80 far as in
his opinion it shall not be inconsistent
with the public interests. to commune
cate to the senate copies of all instruc-
tons which may have been given to
any representative of the United States
or any naval officer since March 4,
1891, in reference to the preservation of
public order in Hawaii, or the protec-
ton of lives and property of American
citizens of the recognition or support of
any government there.
Mr.. Sherman (Rep., o., while ex-
pressing himself as in favor of the reso-
luton, thought in the absence of the
chairman of the committee on foreign
relations nothing could be done but to
refer the resolution to that committee.
After some further debate the resolu-
ton was laid over.
Mr. Dolph then addressed the senate
on the Hawaiian matter.
House joint resolution appropriating
$50, 900 for payment of salaries and ex-
penses of additional deputy collectors
of internal revenue, to carry out the
Chinese exclusion act, was reported
from the committee on appropriations
and passed.

Ann I.nrlish Dinner Party.

Everybody took a lady and process
stoned down TO the dining room, but
thore the dispute began. The Duke Of
shoreGitch wanted to take precedence
and sit at the head of the table, holding
that he outranked a minister who repre-
sented merely a nation and not a mon
crch bat | stood for my rights and re-
fused to yield. In the gossip column 1
ilnlled all dukes not royal. and said so,
and claimed precedence TO this one. 1t
couldn't be settled. Of course, struggle as
we might and did, he finally (and inju-
diciously) trying to play birth and an
tiquity. and seeing his conquerer and
''raising" him with Adam, whose direct
posterity | was, rs shown by my name,
while he was of Il collateral branch, as
shown by his ana by his recent Norman
origin. so we all processioned back to
the drawing room again and had a per-
pendicular lunch-plate of sardines and
a strawberry. and you group yourself
and stand up and eat it.
Here the religion Of precedence is not
so strenuous. The two persons Of highest
rank chuck up shilling; the one that
wins has first 60 at his strawberry and
the loser gets the shilling. The next two
chuck up. then the next two. and so ON.
After refreshment, tables were brought,
and we all played cribbage, sixpence a
game The English never play any
game for amusement. If they can't
make something or lose something
they don't care which-thcy won't play.
