Peixoto's Message.

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-President
Peizoto, of Brazil, through his Min
lister of Foreign Affairs, addresses
the following message, dated Rio
Janeiro, Dec. 10, to the editor of
the New York Herald:
Touching reports which have
been circulated In Europe and
America of reverses experienced by
our forces, wish to say that the
government of Brazil has met with
no reverses. Efforts by the rebels
to capture Governors Island have
been of no avail.
GAS the situation stands now the
rebels are weakening. De Gama's
manifesto has promoted a feeling
of hostility to their cause, since the
states are staunchly Republican
and declare that they will never
submit to the restoration of the
monarchy. All of them are firm
in their support Of President
PeiXoto."

Congressional Proceedings.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2l.-[ Senat e
Special "A small number of SEN
ators faced the Vice President
this morning on the last
day of the session in
the year 1893 AS soon
as the journal had been read, and
approved, the message from the
House was communicated. the cor
rected resolution for holding a re-
cess from today to January 3, 1894,
striking out Monday, January 3,
1894, and inserting "wednesday,
January 3, 1894"
Proctor, Republican, of Yer
mont) introduced bill to annex
the territory of Utah to the state
of Nevada; referred to the Com
mittee on Territories.
House Special: Less than seven
ty-five members were on the floor
when the House met at noon today,
for the last time until after the
holiday recess.
Boutelle, of Maine, did not miss
his last opportunity to stick a
thorn in the side of the majority
on the Hawaiian matter. AS
soon as the Journal was read,
Boutelle, who was on his
feet, sent up a resolution
which he said was privileged.
The speaker directed the clerk to
read it. The resolution questions
the authority of Commissioners
Blount to order American naval
representatives at Honolulu. Bou-
telle vainly sought to discuss the
question of his right to discuss
resolutions which was referred to
committee on naval affairs, but the
speaker cut him short, and said it
could only be considered at this
time by unanimous consent. Bou-
telle asked for unanimous consent
but Talbot, of Maryland, objected.
Mcmillan, of Tennessee, from the
committee on Ways and Means,
then presented a joint resolu-
ton authorizing the Secretary
of the Treasury to make a reg
ulation whereby stock removed
| across the Texas border into MeXi-
co can be reimported into the
United States until May, 1894.
Paschal, of Texas, explained that
on account of the drouth in South
| western Texas stock was dying in
large numbers and that the resolu-
ton simply allowed stockmen to
take stock across the river to keep
them from starvation. Without
an objection the resolution was
passed.

One that found much favor in
New York consisted of bouillon
with bread sticks, sweetbreads in
cases, with sandwiches, chicken
salad in the hearts of tomatoes,
served with japanese waters and
iced rice pudding, followed by
coffee. A recipe for iced rice pud-
ding given by a gastronomic au-
thority is as follows: Take one
half cupful of rice, pour over it
pint of cold water, and boil thirty
minutes Chat is, thirty minutes
after it commences to boil.) Drain
the rice, if the water has not all
cooked away, add cupful of milk,
and put in a double boiler. When
the mixture has cooked very soft,
and no milk is left on the rice, rub
through a sieve and put back in
the boiler. Thicker the mixture
with three eggs beaten light and
mixed with a cupful of sugar. Set
in a cool place, favored with va
nilla. Whip a pint of cream, and
when cold add to the pudding.
Freeze as you do ice cream.

Senate and House News.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. Oh
Senator Washburn, of Minnesota,
who pressed the anti-Option bill
in the last Congress, will not in
troduce the measure in the Senate,
because the bill on it's face is to
raise the revenue, and must origin
ate in the House. Senator Wash
burn has been discussing with con-
stitutional lawyers the bill, which
will directly prohibit dealing in
options, as he wanted, if possible,
to present bill of that kind, which
would receive the support of many
Senators who do not believe in u.s.
ing taxing power to prevent deal
ings in futures. He concluded that
such a bill cannot be successfully
maintained, and that an anti-op-
ton bill must be based upon pro.
hibition or restriction by taxation.
This being the case, the bill must
first be passed by the House.

New York Bank Failure.

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-The follow
ing notice has just been posted on
the doors of st. Nicholas bank,
which is the state bank at Broad
street and Exchange Place. "This
bank is closed, pending an investi-
CATION" Signed: Charles M. Pres
ton, superintendent.
The notice was posted on the
doors before the bank officials ar
rived.
President Graves, who arrived at
the bank shortly after the posting
of the notice, said: "This is a high
handed proceeding. l don't I'M
derstand it. | supposed this bank
was solvent"
Mr.. Preston is the state superin-
tendent of banks. The st. Nicholas
bank acted as a clearing house
agent for the suspended Madison
Square bank, and the examina-
ton that is now being made
by Bank Superintendent Preston
is due to the connection of the st.
Nicholas with the Madison Square
bank. Upon the failure of the
Madison Square bank, the st.
Nicholas bank withdrew from that
institution some S250,O00 worth of
securities in order to secure itself.
But it is understood that the st.
Nicholas banks affairs have been
unsettled since that time.

Sufficient money was raised to start the
flrst free kindergarten, and Miss Mary
Katharine Young was chosenits principal.
It was located in one of the worst parts Of
First avenue, and for few days it's gentle
teacher and her assistants had the toughest
time ever experienced by educators in a
well organized city
With no powerful school board back Of
them and no city ordinances to protect
, them assto theAttendance Of their pupils,
these courageous young women continued
bravely at work, and before two months
had passed were instructing daily from 90
to 100 poor children, all under Eve years old.
The children ars Taught to play quietly,
to sew, to cook and to keep house. A
piano Is in every SCHOOL, and the teachers
are always supplied with food for the little
tots who may come to lessons hungry.
Every Christmas Mrs. Cleveland sends a
Christmas trse ito Miss Young's kinder
garten and literally supplies it with dolls
and toys for the girls and fannels, shoes,
ETC., for the parents Of the children. On
Christmas d0y she visits the school and
takes part in the exercises.
Last summer Miss Young was chosen
by Mr. Glider tos be his representative at
the meeting of Kindergarten associations
held in Denver. She was one Of the prin-
cipal essayists on THAT occasion.
In The December Century Miss Young
writes about Kindergarten work. She is
devoting all her time, her energies and
her thoughts to tho task of educating the
children Of the poor.
Miss Young is a very charming woman.
Although yet in her early twenties, she is
thoughtful and accomplished. She has q
sweet voice, cultured manners and is or
ways gentle and dignifed. She is gener.
ously inclined ana SO fortunately situated
IN regard to thegpods of this world that
che gives nearly all her salary to extend
the work in which she is engaged.
