Obituary.

ARENAS E. Hunt was born Nov. 3, 1914,
coming from good old Massachusetts
stock. He died at his home in Pittsfield,
VT, Jan. 10, 1898. For several months he
had been in falling health, suffering much
toward the last, but unmurmuringly. He
was undemonstrative and industrious and
his home life was a charm. A few years
ago his beloved wife died. Since that
time life had seemed lonely and sad, not
withstanding the faithful and tender care
given him by his son, LUCENT, and daugh-
ter, Mrs. E. Ranger. He was always ten
der toward religion, never ridiculing it..
Three sons, one daughter and many friends
survive to mourn their loss. Funeral SER
vices were held at his late home on Sun
day, Jan. Is, 1898, with large attendance,
Rev. s. c. Vail officiating. The remains
were taken to the village cemetery for in
terment. The surviving members of the
household have the sympathy of their
many friends. May great grace sustain
them and make them meet for the inner
itance beyond the grave.

Tho Arectlons OF tho Arab.

An Arab-Ineaning o.. tent dweller,
for in an equine sense the town dweller
is no Arab-loves first and above all his
horse. No need to recite the oft sung
affection he will lavish upon him. Next
he loves his firearm. This, POLITICALLY
speaking, ought to be o six foot, gold in
laid, muzzle loading horror of a match
lock, which would kick any man but an
Arab fiat on his back at every shot, but
actually, in Algeria or Tunis, when he
lives near a city, it is rather more apt to
be a modern English breechloader. You
must fly from the busy haunts Of men to
find the matchbox.
Next to his gun he loves his Oldest son,
Last comes his wife or ono of his wives.
Daughters don't even count. Imean the
Arab scarcely takes the trouble to count
them, unless in so far as they can minis
ter to his comfort, dietetic or otherwise.
Until some ncighbor comes along and
proposes to marry-in other words, to
make still worse slave Of one Of them,
she is only a chattel, a soulless thing.
And yet she is said to be pretty, am;a-
able, helpful being-said to be, for no
one by any hap ever chances to cast his
eyes on one worth seeing. This disregard
for women, be it said to their honor, does
not always apply to the Bedouins of the
Syrian and Arabian deserts. Colonel T.
A. Dodge in Harper's.

ARKANSAS Cry, Kan, Sept. 19.-The
railroads are carrying thousands of dis
appointed people from the Cherokee
Strip. Hundreds are passing through
the city in wagons, on horseback and on
foot. A light rain fell this afternoon,
but the water sank into the pNched
ground so quickly that it had little bene.
fetal effect. Supplies of food have been
received at the new townsites, and the
settlers can now live at moderate ex.
pense. Great Inconvenience still exists,
however. because OF the insufficient sup
ply of water.
Frame buildings are going up in all
the town sites, but the majority still
live and do business in tents. The

trains at the government sites of Pond
Creek, and is giving all the advantages
possible to the independent rival town
sites. At Perry the Santa Fe ia pursu-

would occupy not merely the balance Oh
this session but the entire session. 1t
was futile to speak of that, but he gave
notice that beginning tomorrow morn
ing be would ask that the daily sessions
be extended.
Teller gave notice that when the daily
sessions were extended into night, the
advocates of the bill, as we'll as its oppo-
nents would have to be present.
Hill asked whether Teller was not
satisfied that there was majority In
the senate favorable to repeal.
Teller replied that when vote OF the
senate on the question was taken, IL
showed q majority of almost two.thirds
against the measure, and he would not
insult the intelligence of the BODY by
presuming that it had changed so COM
pletely in so short time.
At 10 minutes of O'Clock Mills took
the floor. He discussed at length the
necessity of maintaining stable stan
dard, reviewing the history of the coun.
try in it's efforts to attain that end, and
declared that continued fuctuation had
a more depressing effect upon the
farmers and other laborers than upon
capitalists and merchants. In conclu-
sion Mills said that he would vote for
the repeal of the Sherman law, and
against every amendment which the
ingenuity OF the human mind could
conceive. No amendment could be
offered to the bill, except one which
impeached the good faith of the presi-
dent, and that he did not intend to do.
After brief executive session the
senate adjourned.

FAILED TO APPEAR.

Democrats in the House Unable TO
Secure q Quorum.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-The quorum
of Democratic members upon which the
leaders counted today failed to put in
an appearance, and for three hours, by
skillful maneuvering the Republicans
were able to deadlock the house. The
failure to secure quorum 30 chagrined
the house leaders that they threw up
the sponge, adjourned and went into
caucus.
In caucus general unanimity OF SEN
timent was expressed for immediate ac-
ton. Resolutions were unanimously
adopted declaring it the sense OF the
caucus that it is the duty of the Demo
cratic members of congress to attend
the sessions and vote. in order that the
public business may be considered and
disposed of, and that when the house
meets tomorrow it remain in session
continuously until a quorum is OBJ
tanned. Further, that the house should
proceed at the earliest practicable day
to the consideration OF bill or bills re-
pealing the laws authorizing deputy
marshals and supervisors Of elections at
the polls.
At the opening of the house session,
this morning. Flynn, delegate from
Oklahoma, created sensation by ask
ing for immediate consideration of a
resolution bearing on outrages said to
have been committed by United States
troops at the opening of the Cherokee
strip last Saturday.
Oates OF Alabama objected to present
consideration of the resolution and
thereupon the struggle to prevent a
report on the Tucker bill repeating the
federal .laws was resumed. For three
hours filibustering under the leadership
of Burrows was continued. Roll call
followed roll call until it became appar-
ent that the Democrats could not muster
a quorum of their own, being six short
when they made the best showing.
When the Democrats announced the
necessity OF caucus to whip the recalci-
trant members into line, the Repu blic-
ans signalized their victory by cheering
wildly. The house then adjourned and
the caucus followed.

TARIFF HEARINGS.

a Democratic Governor Raises His
Voice for Protection.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-The beet sugar
manufacturers were we'll represented be.
fore the committee on ways and means
today. The chief speaker was Mr.. OK
nard of Nebraska, president OF the Amer
ican Beet Sugar association. He said
congress had no moral right to repeal
the sugar bounty clause of the Mckinley
law. T. R. Cutler of Utah, E. p Fowler
and II. G. Hect of California also spoke
against the repeal Of the bounty pro-
vision. John Dimond Of Louisiana alec
strongly protested against the repeal of
the sugar bounty law.
J.H. Hubbard spoke for the Louisiana
rice planters and urged the committee
not to reduce the tariff duties on rice.
At the afternoon session a large num-
ber OF gentlemen from Virginia, Mary
land and Pennsylvania appeared to
protest against any reduction of the
duty on coal. Governor McCorkle of
West Virginia said he was not miner,
but the governor of state which had
10000 square miles of coal mines, and
he wanted protection for the greatest
industry in his state, pleading elo-
quently for the retention OF the duties
on coal. When the governor had fin.
ished Mr.. Tarsney asked:
'The platform upon which you were
elected was for reduction OF duties,
was it not?"
''Yes, sir."
"Then why are you advocating pro-
lection"
II do not believe in tariff which
gives four or five times as high protec.
tion to one industry as another"
Reed said he had in vain attempted
to explain to the Democratic members
the fallacy of their position, but with
the assistance of Democratic governor
elected on Democratic platform, be
might finally accomplish his purpose.
Adjourned.

WAS NOAH BURIED TWICE,

Two Graves of the Patriarch. One of Which
Is Sixty-four Feet Long.
In former article gave pen picture
of the "tomb of Noah" as it now exists
near the ruins of an old fortress at
Nakhtchevan, Armenia. According to
Eastwicks "Three Years In the East"
this old Armenian tomb is annually Wis
tied by thousands Of pilgrims of all
faiths, including NIohammedans and
Turcomans, who make wearisome jour
neys of hundreds Of miles in order to do
reverence to our common ancestor. But,
like all other relics which have the be-
ginning of their history in tradition, this
supposed tomb OF the builder of the ark,
half hidden among the hoary ruins on
the Armenian plains, has rival stand
ing almost within the shadows of the
cedars of Lebanon.
Henniker's Palestine In 1890" says:
About two miles east of Zakhle is the
village of Kerak, not far from which, on
the last declivity of Lebanon, there is a
round mosque This is erected over still
older relics which are held in great rev.
erenco by Moslems and Christians alike,
it being the reputed tomb of Noah the
Patriarch. The structure is now part
of an ancient aqueduct and e regarded
by superstitious thousands as being
place of eminent sanctity. Walls have
been built around it, and at certain sea-
sons of the year the Maronites in particu-
lar make long pilgrimages to visit it.
In his old age, SO tradition says, Noah
entreated God as particular favor that
he might be allowed to end his days in
the shade of the beautiful cedars of Leb-
anon, and there to prepare his place of
burial. The patriarchs prayers were
granted, but shortly before his death he
committed some transgression, and to
punish him God cut off a part of the
tomb which had been constructed to re-
ceive the patriarch's remains.
This being the case, it is clear that
Noah could not be buried at full length,
butwas laid forest with his legs doubled
up under his thighs. SO as to make the
remains conform with the size of the di-
minished tomb. But, taking everything
into consideration, he must have been
giant of giants, for the tomb, even in
it's curtailed state, is Ga feet long.-St.

THE SIEGE OF RIO.

Insurgents Attacking the Capital from
All Sides.
BUENos AYREs, Sept. 19.--It is re-
ported that the rebel feet has succeed
ed in forcing passage past the forts at
Rio, with the intention of blockading
Santos, and, if necessary, shelling it.
Provisions at Rio are becoming very
scarce. The high prices charged for all
the necessaries of life are causing much
suffering among the poorer classes. On
the other hand, several ships loaded
with cattle are announced to be leaving
the La Plata for the use of the insur-
gents. If the rebels capture Santos, the
railroad to Rio would enable them to
attack that city in the rear and on the
land side. This is believed to be the
object of the revolutionary leaders.

about O'Clock this morning. and
brought to the police station seven luck
less females and two young bloods, all in
more or less hilarious condi-
tion. For some time past the
quiet of the pioas and respectable
neighborhood across the river had been
disturbed by the orgies carried on
nightly in the raided establishments.
Complaints about the place becoming
rather frequent, the police at last de-
cided to close it out. When the cop
pers'' closed in on the building last
night, several of the male inmates
jumped out OF the windows, but all the
rest were captured. One OF the young
men who belongs to highly respectable
family begged hard not to be
taken to the station, stating that
he would rather lose a thousand
dollars than be exposed in such
company, but the officers were obdurate
and he was brought along and locked up
with the rest. His appearance in the
police court this morning will create a
sensation among the high-rollers.
