Where cuckoos roost in safety
And snipes are fired out:
Perhaps some Bodies Island.
Who a be very great.

Or desolate a State,
Perhaps no Bodies Island.
A kind of Mugwump's place
Where nothing is the founder
OF some nobody race
Or any Bodies Island.
Who takes a notion TO

To court the lorn cuckoo.
Or every Bodies Island.
Where anybody can
Go shooting snipe for pleasure,
Just like the cuckoo man.

In the Senate.

| In the Senate.
Senator Walsh introduced a new bill
to protect the United States mail.
1t grew out Of the criticism of the
Locomotive Engineers of st. Paul, anC
is the same as the previous bill, excep-
that it is to punish obstructing rail
roads upon which mail is carried, fol-
the purpose Of robbery. The law is
clearly not aimed at strikers. Mr..
Walsh stated on the floor of the senate
that he was in sympathy with organ,
lied labor, and recognized the right tC
stop work, but not to stop other people
from work.
At 1890 a.. III. the tariff bill was taken
up, the pending question being the
amendment offered by Nh. Platt, of
Connecticut, to increase the duty on
iron ore from 40 to 60 cents a ton,
The committee amendment making
the duty on iron ore Ace. a ton, was
agreed to without division,
The next question was on the Jones
amendment to paragraph 11O-making
it read. Iron in pigs, iron k~entledge,
splege Lessen, ferro-maganese, ferro-
silicon, wrought and cast scrap iron or
scrap steel s. per ton" After a long
discussion the Jones amendment was
agreed to-yeas So; n VS. 4, Messrs. AL
len, Mills, Palmer and PETER. That
disposed of item 10.
The next item was No. Ill. taxing
all iron in slabs, blooms or other forms
more advanced than pig iron and less
finished than iron in bars, % per cent.
ad volOrem.
Mr.. Jones moved to strike out the
item and substitute for it the follow
ing: Round iron, in coils or rods, less
than TIC of an inch in diameter, and
bars or shaped or rolled iron. not spec
tally provided for in this act,
so cents per pound; provided, that all
iron in loops or other forms less fin
ished than iron in oars and that ad-
vanced than pig iron, except castings,
shall be subject to a duty of $40 cents
per pound.
Mr.. Hale, Rep. of Maine) declared
the amendment to be a step in the evo-
luton of the abandonment Of the prin-
ciples of free trade and of a tariff for
revenue only.
I'm my opinion" Mr.. Teller con-
"a AAS 41I ~ VI
the bill is ample for the protection of
American industries. [ believe that
the demands of the government for
revenue are so great hat a bill laid for
revenue only, if wisely laid, will, on
of all the articles it touches,
give to the American people ample pro-
lection against foreign cheap labor.
But ! do not think that this bill is so
drawn that it does that. in the
chs that it ought. And yet ! an
bound to say that It is a better bill
| had an idea would com to US
the Democratic party after it's
declaration at Chicago. 1t is q better
bill than We. on this side OF the cham
Der, hoped to get. And | am
glad to get it. with all its inconsistent
cies thrown in. Let US address our
to the question like men charged
with a duty, on the result Of which the
interests of seventy millions of people
are dependent. And if. when we get
the bill is not what we want.
ct us go to the people and submit the
question in that great forum where
will ultimately prevail"
Mr.. Teller's speech was listened too
With much interest and was applauded
n the galleries.
The question was then taken upon
.Ir. Jones amendment. Agreed to
ayes, 50: nays, 9.

Now ON His Uppers.

Sioux City. Iowa, Aug. 25.-Three
years ago Ed COPYRIGHT, one of the
oldest and richest gamblers on the
Missouri river, died and left property
valued at $25,OOO A few months after
his widow married former partner
of COPYRIGHT, Ed Owen, worthless
rake, who wanted to get her money.
From the day they were married Owen
TREY to get her property into his own
name, but failed. Two or three days
ago he assaulted her, in drunken fit,
and would have killed her had it not
been for the interference of her father,
who stabbed Owen and injured him
badly. Now Mrs. Owen has sued him
for divorce, and Owen has suddenly
fallen from his high estate of parasite
on one Of the richest women in the
city, to that Of a pauper. Mrs. Owen
secured an injunction to keep him from
going to her house or having anything
to do with her, and the quondam swell
sport Of the city is on his uppers.

Madison, Wis, Aug. 25.-The inves-
tigation Of Dr.. Richard T. Ely by a
committee of board of state university
regents utterly collapsed last evening
when Elys accuser, State Supt. o. r.
Wells, sent in communication declining
to appear further before the committee
which he deemed destitute of power
and because he thought that the de-
monstrations at the last session of the
committee led him to believe that he
could not hope for a fair trial. Mr..
Wells S pplemented his statement with
q brief digest of DR.. Ely's book on So
cialism which he deemed pernicious.,Dr
Ely was then put on the stand by his
attorney for vindication, and defined
his method Of instruction and in gen.
eral his views Oh socialism, declaring
himself opposed to strikes and boycotts
and holding great reverence for the
rights of private property. The COM
mittee then adjourned and will report
later.

CLOSING DAVIS of the senate.

Washington, Aug. 25.-It is expected
by the Democratic leaders of the senate
that a quorum will be in the senate
to-day. kilograms have been received
from number of senator's, saying they
expect to arrive before the next ses-
sion, among them being Senator Mills,
Morgan and Dubois. Senator Camden
returned to-day. If a quorum appears
and Senator Lindsay gets the floor he
will no doubt finish his speech before
he allows an interruption, when the
point of no quorum could be made.
The objection of the Republicans to
any further tariff discussion is consid-
cred frivolous by the Democrats and
they say that they do not care to en-
ter into any agreements that speeches
shall not be made in order to transact
minor business before the senate. 1t is
said by the Democratic leaders in the
senate that an adjournment will fol-
low action by the president on the
tariff bill, whether speeches are made
or not, as nothing can hold the senators
in Washington after this measure is out
Of the way.
