THE CHIMNEY SWALLOWS.

They have come far to rear their
broods in this northern cline; farther,
perhaps, than almost any of the birds
now here, for they come from the
sunshine of the far Central America
and the West Indies, regions which
are part of the worlds kitchen, always
warmed by the kitchen fire, and these
happy birds leave it for their chosen
breeding places in the green spring
fields of the far north, on the border
Of the worlds refrigerator. Only they
do not seek the green fields for their
nestings; they build their queer nests
in unused chimneys. All the joy, all
the life of these remarkable birds is in
the air, and the flight. All their vital
functions are performed on the wing;
even the dead twigs of which they
strangely build their nests are snip
ped off from the tree without the
slightest pause in their flight. Their
happy chirruping voices are heard in
the pleasant evening twilight of May
and June, as they dash forward in
their zigzagging flight in pursuit of
sWarms of the minute in sectisin the
air. In several respects they are pc
culiar and interesting birds.

FUNDAMENTAL INsTiTUTIONS IN PERIL.
During the short interval of the Easter
recess already passed both the governments
and party leaders have more keenly realized
the grave eventuAlities arising from a
struggle which nay imperil some OF the
fundamental institutions OF the empire.
The opposition organs instead of breathing
daily defiance against the government, now
admit that compromise is possible, while
Chancellor Won Caprivis organs confess
that the ministers view the prospect
OF the dissolution OF the Reichstar
with great reluctance. Thus the North
German Gazette. though declaring the re-
ports untrue that Herr Won Bennigsen's
suggestions may be approved, says that the
government fully recognizes the dangers Of
dissolution. II adds that grave problems
regarding interior policy will claim all the
strength Of the ministry throughout a long
period OF peace, but it will be impossible 10
preserve the peace IL the army ia not rein-
forced. The paper concludes its article

ROACR's ELECTION.
The Republican Senators to Push the
Inquiry.


Inquiry,
WASHINGTON, April 1.-Some of the re-
publicsns Of the Senate deny the statements
that the INQUIRY into the charges made
against Senator Roach of North Dakota is
to be abandoned. 1t has been decided by
this element of the party that the repub-
hcans will not only insist upon the original
inquiry but will broaden the scope of the
investigation and urge close scrutiny of the
means that were used to effect the election
OF Senator Roach. They say, in view OF
the fact that MIR. Walsh, the republican
speaker OF the Dakota House, voted for
Senator Roach, and then left his seat, and
did not return again until after the election
that his sOn-in-law voted for Senator Roach !:
that ten republicans In all voted for the
democratic candidate-it becomes apparent
that there is legitimate scope for investiga-
ulon IN connection with the election.
When asked about the matter this after
noon Senator Chandler said he understood it
TO be the intention Of the republican mem-
bers OF the Senate. instead Of withdrawing
from the inquiry, to push 1t and broaden 1t
so as to include the methods adopted at the
time of the election.

and each OF the Joneses drew heavy steel
bars from under their coats prepared to
make an assault. DR.. Beck wrenched the
steel bar from the younger Jones and
pounded them both numerically. Public
opinion is with DR.. Beck, as the editors
have been severe in their attacks upon Or.
Beck, as well as on other citizens.
