special Dispatch to the Daily Eagle.
GUTHRIE, o. T., Jan. 16.-The consensus
of opinion this morning was that the
deadlock in the house would be broken
this afternoon. This expectation was not
realized. The people have come to the
conclusion that enough time has been
trified away. It now looks as though the
Republicans will have the speaker. the
Democrats the chief clerk and sergeant
alarms, and that the other offices will be
divided. The populists will "go to the
wall"
When Representative ]. NJ. Stovan Wis
tied home last Saturday he was met by a
large delegation of the citizens and brass
band They heartily Endorsed his action
IL voting with the Republicans, and told
him they would re-elect him to the next
assembly. They also prepared set OF
resolutions, to which was affixed a large
number of names, indorsing his position.
The Democrats had hoped that he would
break, but anyone who knows ). M
Stovall knows that he is inheXi5le when
once his mind is made up.
The Democrats claim that Wallace, the
colored member, is weakening. This is
doubtful A week has been frittered away,
and the people are becoming indignant. 1t
appears as il a large amount of good legls-
latiOu could be accomplished.
a new arrangement of seats in the house
has been effected which will add materi-
ally to the comfort OF the members. This
is the result of Harper Cunuingham'S res
olutiOu.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-Secretary Rusk
has received from Dr. Salmon, chief OF the
bureau of animal industry, report on the
experiments and Investigations being
made in Chicago in the treatment of cat
tie for actinomycOsis, or ''lumpy law"
The report concludes that the remedy
tried-iodide of potassium-is a remarka-
bic success, 63 per Cent. of the cattle there
treated having been cured. The greater
part of these were seriously affected when
taken for treatment. The report shows
the cost of treatment TO be trifling by
comparison with the results, and 1t is also
proved that the disease Is not contagious,

FREMONT, O., Jan. 16.-Information
has just been obtained that ex-President
Hayes has had an attack of neuralgia of
the heart, but is now slightly improved.
During the last month the ex-president
has mplained of one or two attacks of
neuralgia of the heart, but as they soon
passed away he thought nothing of them.
On Saturday he experienced a severe re-
Currence of the malady. He was then at
Columbus and hurried home, where his
son and doctor awaited him at the depot,
and hurried him to the house.
The doctor has practically been with
Mr.. Hayes ever since, but his condition
was not known to outsiders till suspicion
was aroused today by the quietness at the
house. The doctor today said that the
patient had partially recovered, but WAS
not out of danger, and he would spend
the night at his bedside. The friends and
relatives of the sick man assert that he is
not seriously i'll, and that he will be out
in a few days.

Thoughts of an Idle fellow on Gazing at
the silver Sands.
For miles stretches a floor Of silver
sand.
The sun has bleached the whiteness
on its face deathly pallor.
The sun and the sea are foes. and
their battle-ground is that floor Of sill
yer sand-for when the mighty wave
dashes in to cool the parched face and
thirst Of the sand, how quickly the sun
blows with force its heated breath and
dries the moisture, Then again for miles
stretches a flow Of silver sand
The knotted old pines on the knoll
turn their heads and bend their bodies
from the sea, and the tail. thin, burnt
brown grasses lean inland and trem be
at the cry Of thirst from the bursting
sand they live in. But they are slaves
these trees and wecds-sla7es 70 the
sun. They dare not but tain rebellion
for the sea.
l. Is only when the sun lowers its
proud and cruel head these trees and
grasses raise their crooked forms and
open their mouths Tor the mist kiss Of
night; only when the silver sand has
sla5ed his thirst, and the rising tide
unchecked bT ;ae sun, has bathe3 =, j.
Il these towards turn their faces sea-
ward.
What hvPocrites, these slaves OF the
sun! For or the morrow. when the day
a7akes and the sun and the sea carry

again their part with backs 20 the sea.

BURIAL OF BUTLER
The Funeral at Lowell Attended by Vast
Concourse of People.

LOWELL, Jan 16-Today the foremost
citizen soldier of Massachusetts was laid
at rest, with all the honors, both military
and civic, to which his high rank entitled
him. Thousands gathered around the
bier to attest their sorrow. The chief
executive of the commonwealth and the
humblest workman stood elbow TO elbow
at his grave. Major General Benjamin. L.
Butler, jurist, ex-congressman and ex-gov-
erpor, received in death the full measure
OF recognition which was denied him IN
life. He was buried as the friend OF the
people. There were represented amongst
the mOurners all shades Of political faith
and ali classes. From O'CLOCK q. m
huntington hall, where the remains lay
in state, was besieged by pushing jost-
ling crowd, The crush was iudescriba bic.
Women tainted and children were
trampled upod, and still many were
turned away unsatisfied. At 1l:30 O'Clock
the hall was closed and the body was sur
rendered by the Grand Army, IN whose
keeping 1t had been, to the state authorl-
ties. To them was assigned the duty OF
giving il a military burial
Long before the hour for the services the
sidewalks in the neIghborhood began TO
be crowded, and when the body was car
ried from the hall TO the street fully $4,000
held cards Of admission secured entrance
TO the church.. Among them were men
whose names are widely known IN connec-
tion with he affairs of The state and OF the
nation. 1t was nearly O'Clock when the
tolling of bells announced the approach of
the cortege.
Four coal black horses stopped in front
of The church and the Grand Army veter-
ans lifted the casket and carried it into
the yestibule, where Rector st. John
Chambers and the honorary pail bearers
awaited it. In the first carriage were Paul
Butler and his sister, Mrs. Blanche But
Ter Ames and General Ames and Cadet
Ames of West Point. The other members
of the family aud the intimate friends
who had assembled at the house followed.
When Rev. DR.. Chambers and his
assistant Rev. George S. Sinclair opened
the doors and slowly led the way TO the
altar the rector began the regular Episco-
pal burial seryice-brief, but very I'M
pressive. The eulogy had been spoken at
the private services at the house, so there
was no departure from the regular
service at the church. At its close the
casket was horne out of the church and
placed in the hearse, and then the line or
march was taken up TO the cemetery.
When the escort arrived at the grave
with the casket, the last of the cortege
had just left the church. Only persons IN
carriages were allowed to enter the en-
closure of the cemetery. General Peach
and his staff occupied knoll inside, and
the troops and the volley firers were
grouped near the grave. Rev. DR.. Cham
bers concluded the religious services, the
Masons gave short ritual, and Il volley
was fired. Thousands followed the pro-
cession to the burial ground, and there
was great confusion in the narrow street
after the ceremony was finished.
