HOUSE.

After the reading of the journal, Mr.
Sayers offered joint resolution ex-
tending, until the 24th instant, the pro
visions of the joint resolution carrying
forward the appropriations upon the
basis of those for the past year.
Mr.. Cannon asked Mr.. Savers if he
thought he had given himself enough
time.
Mr.. Sayers answered that if there
was no agreement on the sundry civil
appropriation bill by that date, there
probably would be none at all.
The joint resolution was passed.
Committees were then called for re-
ports.
On motion of Mr.. Heard the House
went into consideration of business re-
ported from the committee on the Dis
trict of Columbia, taking up the bill to
establish free library in the District.
At p. m. the House is discussing
the order and expects to vote on it at &.

IT Is we'll that Vice President Steven
son was not absent from the Senate, as
he was at previous close vote, last
Saturday, for, had he been, there
would have been no tariff legisla-
sion at this session of Congress. His
vote alone then made the passage of a
tariff bill possible.

The Wholesale markets opened without
material change in prices and are steady To-
day. Flour is in very fair demand, bnt
stocks in first hands arc larger than usual at
this season and millers seem willing 10 sell
at current figures. The offerings of Wheat
are small-choce samples are readily sold at
the recent advance, common ard damaged
lots are still hard to dispose of, hence a long
range is reported say from AZ to 81, latter

any kind. met some people used TO
know, but had forgotten. One middle
aged gentleman introduced himself by
saying: major, you do not remember
nle, but | will refresh your memory.
Many years ago when you were living
in Rome you was q member of tho
school board and ! was an applicant for
teachers commission You were
chosen to examine me on arithmetic,
and when it was your turn you asked
me to go to tho blackboard and write
down eleven thousand eleven hundred
and eleven, and l busted, but you let
me in" Yes, l remembered then that
his name was Duke, and how mortified
he was at his failure. My friend Judge
Ware was president of tho fair. He
stands six feet four, and is large in pro-
portion. Seven sons and three daugh tiers
of like proportions ornament the family,
and nearly all are married. Almost
everybody in that settlement seemed
above the average size, just as they do
in Kentucky where tho blue grass
grows. All flesh is grass, you know.
Cattle eat the grass and folks eat the
cattle. Judge Ware is pious man and
doesn't approve of the races, but he
says he is obliged TO stand around and
keep order, but always turns his back
when the horses are running. This re-
minds me of my son, who is in England,
and while he was walking around tho
old historic tower Of London wanted a
sprig of ivy that mantled its walls. Old
soldiers were slowly walking about as
guards, and tho signboard said hands
off" but he humbly approached the
guard nearest the wall and told him he
was all the way from America and would
be glad to take home sprig of that ivy
to remember the tower by, and the old
man turned his back to the wall and
whispered: I'm not looking at ye.'
So he quickly cut branch and put it
under his vest. 1t is now growing in a
little pot, and he will bring it when he
comes.
/ met but enc Populist a. Corinth
that | know of and he said he had
always liked Mr. Atkins until they
told him he had got to drinking and
whipped his wife scandalous. maybe
it was his wife whipped him." said |.
From all political liars and slanderers
may the good Lord deliver us.

Ivan the Terrible.

From the Gentleman 5 Magazine.
In the year 1915 famine followed close
on the heels of a pestilence, which then,
as now, attacks periodically the lower
classes in Russia and other countries.
The towns and wales swarmed with
"rOgs," beggars, and counterfeit ''crip-
pells' and the authorities then, as now,
were powerless TO stamp them out Ivan
had a short way with them-a success
full way, too-whatever judgment we may
pass on its morality. He proclaimed that
on certain day at Slobida aims would
be distributed among the Deggars. Some
thousands turned up TO partake of VANS
hospitality, and about 200 of the worst
impostors were knocked on the head and
thrown into the lake for the fish to re-
ceive their doll Their" Horsey calls this
"a deed Of charitie."
VANS oldest son, also named Ivan, was
in many ways much like his father: in
deed according to Karamsin, the resem-
blance was almost complete, and it was
soon recognized by the people that no
hope for release from tyranny was to be
looked for when the day came for Ivan
the younger TO succeed TO the throne. He
often accompanied his father upon his
raids and cruel prosecutions, and, like his
father, he did not hesitate to raise his
own hand against the prisoners. With all
this he seems to have loved his country in
q vague sort OF way, and was jealous of
It's honor
This love or jealousy was the cause of
his early death. The enemy was ad-
vancing against Pskof, and the son
begged his father 10 allow him TO lead an
army against the invader. On hearing
this proposal the car few into an ungov-
ernable passion, accused his son Of the in
tentlon 10 use the army to depose him,
and ia the alteration he struck his son
with his iron-shod statf, inficting wound
which caused death in four days

language. "Iynn's son died of a blowe
