WAsHINGToN, April N.-The Demo-
Gratis 10 the Senate to-day decided to
accept the proposition made by AL
drich to vote on the tariff bill, as il
came from the House at 8 O'Clock to-
day. Harris conferred with the
Democratic Senators on the PROPOSE
ton and all agreed to allow vote to
be taken.
When asked if the Republicans
would stand by the, proposition he
made and vote ON the tariff bill to
day Alnrlch said: g.! had no inten-
tion OF granting an option. My prop
ositlon was to the Senate and not to
the Democratic caucus. 1t therefore
seems Aldrich's surprising offer was
bluff watch does not bind Republic
cars and the tariff debate will not be
ended by a vote at 3 Pm
The sparring between Harris and
Aldrich terminated without agree
ment as to when the vote will be
taken.
Not more than a dozen Senators
were present when the Senate met at
IL O'Clock. Ggllinger of New Hamp.
shire interrupted the reading of tho
Journal to suggest the absence OF q
quorum. Roll was called and thirty
nine Senators answered.
Harris moved in the Senate that
the tariff bill be taken up. Dubois
objected but the motion was passed
by vote OF % to 16. Dolph waived
right TO the floor to Senator Lindsay
of Kentucky who spoke in support OF
the tariff, which he said was ininite-
ly better than the existing law. He
warmly defended the income tax.
Sherman disputed the assertion OF
Lindsay that the strikes at Home
stead were due TO the Mckinley bill {.
Lindsay retorted that manufacturers
generally desire to reduce wages
without respect to the rates of duty

Alexander e. Sweet Writes of the Playful
and Harmless Tarantula.

Copyright, by the Wilson Press Syndicate.
During the winter months in the
Northern States, kind providence real
ling that people are already sufficiently
afflicted with coughs and colds, plumb
ers and icy sidewalks, withdraws flies,
mosquitoes and other insect pests from
active circulation. But IL is otherwise
on the flowery banks Of the Rio Grande,
where, even in December. the hens have
to be put in refrigerators TO keep them
from laying hard boiled eggs, where
mellow centipedes dangle from the
limbs OF the trees. and sometimes from
the limbs OF the pedestrian. and ripe
taTantulas can be picked all winter.

A long, sad chapter might be written
about the red ants of Texss. There is
one particular style OF blond ant that
could bite a corner of burglar proof

A soft-eyed scientist from Boston
with intellectual bumps like summer
sQuashes all over his brainy forehead,
once undertook, with a dark lantern'
and cane TO ascertain II these indus
trious insects really worked at night.
IL was not long before his arms and
legs were vibrating like the bars OF q
threshing machine, and be was bowling
like dog whose tail had been flattened
by the wheels OF furniture van. When
he was arrested he did not wear much
else except collar, look OF woe, and
the red ants, which had TO be removed
with monkey wrench.
There are also delegations OF wasps
OF assorted sizes that assist in making
plcnics and campmeetings interesting.
The scientists maintain that 1t is only
the female wasp that stings. II so, the
female wasp has working majority in
both houses in Texas. Both sexes dress
alike so that IL is impossible TO distip-
guish their sex without catching them.

But perhaps the most interesting DEL

spider with eight legs and bad repu-
tation. Tucked up under his chin.

There are few stations in life which
confer more dignity and honor than the
cardinalate Living, a cardinal Is the
recipient of the greatest attention from
all classes and is treated with difference
and marked distinction even by the
highest; dead, he is venerated aud al
most worshipped Yet so democratic is
the church of Rome in its organization,
that its highest honors and affairs are
open and ACCESSIBLE to it's humbiest sons.
Many OF the cardinals have come from
exceedingly humble stock, and those OF
to-day are no exception. Indeed, the
same is true OF the princes OF the church
outside of the Cardinals College.

about it. with swamp 10 the back
ground.
The opposing forces had long and
desperate fight for the mastery OF this
position. but our men had finally TO give
way before overwhelming numbers.
Gradually they were driven back. They
had stood for some time blazing away
into each others faces. On our side il
was a question of retreat or desperate
charge. Just then Lieut.. Warwick ran
over TO my father and with bright
smile on his face, exclaimed. General
let Us charge them" "Order the
charge my brave boy" said my father;
aud Warwick with drawn sword leaped
upon top OF one of the saw logs sur
rounding the mill. With the words
half way out OF his mouth and sword in
air, he was struck in the centre OF the
forehead. He sunk as gently as child
going to sleep, to a sitting position, his
head leaning backwards on the log and
sword still in hand, and there they left
him when our troops fell back few
moments later.
Lieut.. Warwick had devoted SER
want who had followed him from his
home in Richmond through the entire
campaign, and was the cook for the
brigade staff. This man was holding
the staff horses on the road in rear OF
the pOsition. Our men fell back. My
father and his surviving staff returned
20 the horses, and WarwicE's man,
alarmed and distressed. asked my father
anxiously for news OF his master.
General Wise told him in brief words
what had happened. He is lying in
there" he added pointing in the direc-
ton OF the mills. Instead OF making
his retreat before the oncoming enemy,
the black boy left his horse and threw
himself into ditch nearby. The Union
troops passed over him in pursuit OF
our forces, either not noticing him, or
not caring for him if they saw him.
When il became safe TO do so the SER
want quietly made mis- way to the mills
and found his masters body. He took
away the watch, trinkets and valuables,
and then buried his master, marking
the grave as best he could. He made
his way back to Richmond and deliver
ed the vauables to poor WarWick's
mother.

pointed out that Leo himself has

troduced this system for the purpose OF

The whole question is thus narrowed
down to the choice between a dlstinct-
lively Italian nonconciliatory Pontin as
Leo's successor, and foreigner, who
will represent coneiliatory policy,
while resenting dictstien by the Triple
Alliance and the domination OF the
