the gaining of time was en- object
to the whig minority. Mr.. Adams
secured the floor early in the night.
After he had been speaking three
or four days. a Democratic member
interrupting him testify inquired
how much longer his speech was
going to b4. The old man placidly
replied that he could not tell pre-
cisely, but if he was not interrupted
too much, he hoped to get through
with his opening remarks in the
course of the week.
Mr.. Stewart, of Nevada, in the
present silver emergency. seoms to
be following this example, Late
yesterday afternoon, after having
held the floor of the Senate for three
days. he gently remarked that he
had finished with one Of about =
half dozen branches of the silver
question and would stop for the
time being, but that he would on
successive future occasions pay his
respects to the other Eve branches
in each instance with equal elabo-

The necessity for n national air that has
not been either borrowed or stolen was very
clearly apparent during the naval rende2-
vous at Hampton Roads and the subse-
uucnt ceremonies in New York. In those
places, if never before, the chilly conviction
struck many heart, and there was hourly
emphasis of our poverty and musical dis
honesty. When the band on one of the
British ships played God Save the Queen"
young lady visitor was delighted with
what she thought was an international
compliment, for she imagined the bands
men were playing "America." She was
not alone in her error Hundreds of others
then in that vicinity did not know that our
greatest of patriotic hymns is sung to a
stolen tune, and thai tune the most royal
istic of all airs.
There was similar misunderstanding as
to other melodies. "Theyre playing Co
lumbia, the Gem of the Ocean, " said a sol
dicr who from the wharf was listening to
the Blake's band. His guess was wrong.
They were playing "Britannia, the Gem of
the Ocean," but he WAS only one of mil
lions who are not aware of the fact that
both words and music Of that song were
lifted bodily across the Atlantic and that
somewhere Oh the way the word "Culum-
bia" was substituted for britannia. "

A Natural Curiosity That Is Found In
Nevada.
A most remarkable tree which grows
near Tuscarora, New. is described in
the Popular Science News The witch
tree, as the superstitious Indians call it,
grows to height of six or seven feet,
with a trunk whose base is three times
the size of an ordinary mans wrist.
1t has numberlcss branches and twigs,
and resembles somewhat the barberry
Indigenous to certain regions in the
eastern states
The trui y wonderful characteristic OF
the tree is its luminosity, which is Sc
great that on the darkest night it can
be plainly seen mile away. A person
standing near could read the finest
print by its light. Its foliage is ex-
trenely rank, and its leaves resemble
somewhat those of the aromatic bay
tree of California in shape, size and
color
The luminous property is due to a
gummy substance, which can be trans.
ferred To the han by rubbing, together
with its phosphor escent light. while the
light on the leaf disappears. The lu.
minosity is thought to be due to a para.
site growth. The Indians will never
approach It, even in daylight. with such
superstitious awe do they regard its
mysterious light.

those special coins that found their way
