MONDAY. JAN. %.

In the Senate, Mr.. Sherman presented several
petitions from Posts of the Grand Army of the
Republic on the subject OF the flag over the
Capitol at Washington. He said that there APP
peared to be misrepresentation on the subject
which he wished to correct. 1t seemed to be
supposed that there was some unreasonable dis
crimin nation made against the flag; but he was
informed that the same flag was now floating
over the Capitol as had foated over it since the
formation of our Government. There was one
over the House, one over the Senate, ana one
over the Supreme Court when these bodies
were in session. bill had been introduced
in the last Congress to have the flag floating
every day over the east and west fronts of the
Capitol, but that bill had failed to pass. and no
appropriation had been made for the purpose.
AS it seemed to be a matter of sentiment, and
as the flag was kept floating over all the other
public buildings of Washington from morning
till night, he hoped that an appropriation
would be made at the present session to carry
out the same general plan.
Mr.. Hale said: "A member of the Committee
on Appropriations promised that that COM
mittee would see that this thing was provided
for at the present session."
The Senate adjourned after further con-
sideration of routine business.
In the House, consideration Of the tariff
bill was suspended to read the Presidents
Hawaiian message transmitting the memorial
of natives for the restoration OF the Queen, and
other Hawaiian correspondence yesterday.
1t was referred to the Committee on Foreign
Affairs
Mr.. Boutelle, OF Maine, arose to a question
of personal privilege. The correspondence
showed he said, that the Government of the
United States and its ministers abroad were
still engaged in an attempt to incite insurrec-
ton in country with which we were at peace.
And the duty of Congress in the matter was so
obvious that he could not conceive that the
Speaker would any longer persist in inter-
posing his will against an expression by the
House in the matter. He would, therefore,
call up his privileged resolution. which was
reported to the House some time ago.
This created storm of confusion, in the
midst of which Mr.. Hatch rushed down the
main aisle and called Mr.. Boutcle TO order.
Under the rules member called to order must
take his seat, and MIR. Boutele did this, though
with much grumblng. He Immediately arose
again and attempted to address the Chair, when
the Speaker ordered the Sergeant-st-A Arms to
seat Mr.. BOutelle.
Sergeant-at- Arms Hill advanced and pre-
sented the mace and eagle at Mr.. Boutelle,
who thereupon acknowledged its authority and
took his seat. He attempted to rise to q privi-
lodged question, however, when the Speaker
told him that he could not rise.
A motion was then made to resume consider
alton of the tariff BILL and Mr. Boutele de-
manded a quorum. This delayed business for
about five minutes, but 81 the expiration of
that time quorum was forthcoming and bust
ness proceeded.
The sugar schedule was taken up, and various
amendments offered aud spoken to.

She Paid George.

They sat cozily side by side at the the
alter enjoying to the top of their bent
the miserable fate of Desdemona, and
dear George told her that he would new
err be jealous of her-no, not if she
should give away 1000 pocket haudlzer-
chiefs, and then they had squeezed each
others hands under her lace wrap, ard
they were happy as happy can be. Dear

and then ate them all up, for no man
was ever so much in love as to be shy i'll

By and by it came to the end of the
third act, and after looking very rest
less and wretehed George said fondly,
"You won't mind, dear, will you, If |
Just step out into the yestibule to stretch
my legs n hit, will your
If George had had half an eye he
would have seen that she did mind
very much. No woman likes to be left
alone in q theater, but she only said
coolly, "Oh, not in the least, if you
care to 60"
So George crawled over the laps of
half dozen ladies, treading ON their
toes, scratching their chins with his
watch chain and brushing the bloom
Off their laces and evening attire
She waited about five minutes, and
then, swiftly bundling her wrap around
her, and with her pretty face scarlet
with indignation and embarrassment
she bravely left the theater and went
home.

At one moment Company charged

At last, wet, weary and half exhaust

NOTHING FOR THE BIBLE.

An Aged Mans Vain Errand In New York
Pawnshop.
In Bowery pawnshop a man shut
fed up to one Of the clerks with big
bundle which he wanted to pawn. The
man was old and decrepit. His hair and
beard were long, white and unkempt
His clothes were ragged as the wrap
pings of his bundle. He laid the bundle
down on the counter, pulled off the
wrappings and displayed Bible Of what
is known as the family" sort. 1t had
large, heavy covers stamped in gilt and
looked as If it might be illustrated with
full page steel engravings
"What'll you give me on that?" said
he to the clerk.
Nothing" replied the clerk, with
the most discouraging accent imagina-
BILE and apparently without even a
glance at the Bible.
"Oh, yes, you WILL" said the old
man. please give me something.

but I've got to have it, pleaded
the old man. II haven't had anything
to eat today. Give me 80 cents.
Nothing to drink, you mean," said
the clerk, with another glance at the
trembling old man 81 won't give you
anything. We don't take Bibles any
way"
The clerk turned to talk to man
who wanted to pawn a ring. The old
man hesitated minute and then re-
newed his effort
"Well, give me % cents them" he
said. "I've had more than that on this
before.
"Not here" answered the clerk. 81
tell you we don't take Bibles. Go on,
now"
The old man gathered up his Bible
and shuffled away. The man who wa
pawning the ring looked ON with evident
interest. He was thinking Of the many
stories he had heard Of men who would
pawn the family Bible for drink money

"Is that q rule Of the house?" he sale
to the clerk who was making out the

from other realms-to aid them per-
haps. They conjured him to disperse
the clouds that for several days had
hung about the mountains and prevent
ed their getting to their fiocks grazing
on the heights.
The traveller replied serenely in an
unintelligible dialect that the clouds
certainly were fine evidences of a
dull day, but that the herdsmen were
not to be further alarmed, as he was
provided with the sovereign remedy for
such exigenoies. Seating himself on q
stump near by, Herr Veit began conf
IDENTIFY to woo the sun god with sweet
music. The anxious rustics concluded
that this procedure was the magical way
to dissipate the mists and went by twos
and threes contentedly about their vari-
Gus oallings.
As the hours wore away, however,
with no marked tightening Of the at
mosphere, the people began to doubt the
strangers power and to exhibit signs Of
Impotence, some manifestations being
so stormy as to affect the musician-and
his measures--tremulously. Phobus,
too, apparently was angry, for though
Herr Veit, with his liveliest notes, be-
sought an audience, the day closed un-
blessed with glimpse of the sun god s
radiance As the night became darker
and darker, the music grew more and
more faint, but it was only when the
weariest villagers had sunk to rest that
the melody ceased. In order to give their

inhabitants had resolved to leave him to
his methods until the following day.
Bright and early next morning the sun
appeared, but long before its rays gilded
the mountain tops Herr veit, fearful
Of another trial, had stolen from the
scene Of his exertions-sighting after
many hardships the familiar roofs Of
Salzburg.
One evening soon after Herr Vets re.
turn the student was asked to sup with
him, and over the coffee the adventure
was recounted. The legend which had
turned the shoemaker's head must have
been Of Amphion, under whose magic
music the ramparts of Thebes are re-
puted to have arisen, for when the cpl
sode had been rehearsed mine host, pre-
facing by way of momentum, "a little
learning is dangerous thing" reflected
that in the olden time it must have been
no small matter to build up wall by
the power of music, seeing that nova
days it was most difficult to move even
a cloud by the same.

Senator Hunton having stated that an

it is now in order for the Senate to inves-
tigate the accusation made by one OF its
members and to lay the foundation for
proceedings which will result in the pun
ishment of the man or men who proffered
the bride. Quite naturally, Senator Hunton
will be disinclined to have his name con-
nected with any such disreputable affair.
but in the interest of all that is honest In
legislation he should put aside his personal
feelings in this matter and do everything
