LONDON, March 22-The government
bill to establish parish councils has passed
its first reading in the house of commons.

council to be annually elected by ballot by
men and women having the right to vote
for mem bers of the county council. The
parish councils are to consist of not less
than five nor more than ten members.
They are to take precedence over all the
existing powers of the vestries, excepting
as regards church charities. and they are
to have control of parish property, land al
lotments, roads, water supply, the local
watching and sanitation generally, aud
they are to have charge of the compulsory
purchase of the land under the sanction Of
the local government board. In urban
districts as well as rutal districts the bill
abolishes electoral disqualif1cations on the

poor law is to remain under the guardians,
as it is now.

| Prolonged clamor followed this state

closed with his being directed to submit
the documents to the reichstag today.
In consequence of expected sensations,
there was d large attendance of members
and Others at the opening of the reichstag
today. Immediately after the president
| took his seat, Rector Ahlwardt. upon
whom all eyes were fixed, arose and stated
that he wished to lay few papers upon
the table. This announcement was the
signal for excited shouts from the mem
bers. demanding that he furnish the house
with all the documents which he was yes
terday directed to furnish. He said that
after Easter he would supplement the
documents now furnished with other
papers bearing out his statement. Re-
newed demands were made that he pro-

and ex-officials.
that the sitting of the reichstag be sus-
pended, in order to allow a special COM
mittee to examine the papers already pre-
sented, which was adopted.
Count Won Ballestrem, who was appoint
ed chairman OF the committee, upon the
reassem bling of the house stated that the
committee bad carefully examined the
documents submitted to them. but had
found nothing to prove the assertions of
Herr Ahlwardt.
Rector Alhwardt again arose, and re-
iterated his promise 10 produce after
Easter other documents in his possession,
among which, he said, was letter from
the president of the senate to foreign
court. expressing thanks for money sent
to the German government.
Herr Won Lovetzow, president OF the
rechstag, here forbade Herr Alhwardt to
refer to documents that he had not pro-
duced for the inspection of the house.
Speeches were made by number OF
mem bers, all of whom, without regard to
party condemned Herr Alhwardt for the
charges he had made, with no apparent
proof to support his assertions.
Herr Ahward declared that all the docu-
ments in his possession to prove his asser-
tions weighed 200 pounds.
Count Won Ballestrem then communi-
Gated to the reichstag a resolution adopted
by the committee appointed to examine
the alleged discriminating documents. The
resolution declared that the documents
contained nothing that would cast slur
upon present or former members of the
reichstag or of the imperial or other Ger

When Count Won Ballestrem had fin
isb0d reading the resolution Herr Ahwardt
protested that the action of the commit
tee deprived him of IA chance OF proving

THE BEST SYSTEM OF FORTlFICA-
TON

Is that adopted by people in precarious
health, who wisely fortify their systems
against diseases with that acceptable and
effectual barrier against its inroads-Hos-
letters Stomach Bitters. Precautionary
measures, when the health is but slightly
impaired is, as physicians well know,
worth any amount of medication after
ward. A premonitory malaral chill, fit
of Indigestion, increasing irreguarity of
the bowels, warning rheumatic twinge,
inactivity of the kidneys, slight at first,
bilious sallowness, accompanied with
furred tongue-these are appeals to the
sense of self-protectIon which no person
of common judgment will disregard. Hos
letters Stomach Bitters preserves those
who take it from malaria, dyspepsia,
chronic constipation, rheumatism, kidney
and bladder trouble and liver complaint.
Nervous invalids. persons troubled with
the infirmities incident to advanced years,
ladies in delicate health and convalescents
derive infinite benefit from the Bitters.
