WILL MEET TONIGHT.

The Anti-Silver Men Will Hold a
 Session at the Arlington Hotel
 When 1t Is Expected That a Poll of
 the House Will Re Made.
 WASHINGTON, Aug. IA meeting of the committee appointed last week to ar range, on behalf of the anti-silver men, for discussion of the silver question in the house has been called by Representa- tive Rayner, chairman, for tomorrow night at the Arlington hotel. The pur- poses announced in the call are the ap- pointment of subcommittee to take charge of the various features of the pres- ent contest, and to complets the organiza- tion of the anti-silver forces in the house. It is expected that at that meeting the re- suit of the poll of the house upon the pending measure will be ready for an- nouncement.
 At present 1t Is not in such g state of forwardness as to warrant the anti-silver leaders in making any definite claims. They cay that they expeet and believe that the Wilson repeal law will be passed, but can give no exact figures.
 Estimates of the majority in favor of the repeal vary from g to 40. The exact figures will be known when the committee meets to morrow.

GHACE,s GREAT CAME.

Post Did Not Have Much Chance
 With Him at the Tennis Tourna-
 ment.
 NARRAaASsErT PIER, R. |, Aug. 14.- This afternoon at the tennis tournament the whole of the preliminary and most of the first rounds were completed. c. R. Budlong had perfect walk-over in his match with s. L. Smith, defeating Linn 61, 62.
 The most interest, however, was mani Tested in the match between Malcolm Chace of Brown and A. w. Post of New York. Chace showed the same form which he exhibited in his play with Wrenn last Saturday. Post did not show his usual game at all. In fact 1t is ex- tremely doubtful If he could have done so for Chace is playing the game of his life.
 Richard Stevens did not hsvo much trouble in defeating S D. Reed of Amherst In two straight sets 3, 63.

 Having done this much and the senate being unable to pass any repeal measure pending the debate in the house, the finance committee will content itself with considering the various measures that have been referred to 1t, but no bill will be re. ported to the senate until after the vote has been taken in the house. The majority members of the committee feel that no ad . vance can be made in the consideration of the repeal measure by reporting 1t now or even next week, and that there will be a disposition to fight shy of square propo- sition to repeal until the house has acted. For that reason the committee will take it's time in the matter of reporting to the

The Lemon

The Lemon
Lemons make verj refreshing and thirst
ouenchinE drinks, and the citric acid they
contain cools the blood. Although we, as a
rule, think there is only one variety of lemon,
there are really two Citrus luna, the sweet
lemon, and Citrus Limonium, the true lemon
Citrus Lumia is deficient IN cilric acid; there
fore these are pleasanrer 20 suck or eat, like
oranges, than Citrus Limonium. For drinks
they require the addition of citric acid. The
lemons that are hard and have slightly
greenish hue contain the most citric acid
Lemons, unless fresh, soon get moudly-that
is, in week or SO. To prevent them from
doing this they should not be allowed 10
touch each other If each one IS wrapped up
in tissue paper this cannot occur. Some peo-
ple put them in large stone jar, cover them
with water, and renew the water every three
DAYS. or oftener if it smells. But the best
way is to buy them fresh.-Ex.
