VOTING ON THE VETO.
remarkable Scene In the House-How
 Debate Was shut on


 WASHINGTON, April 5.-A piece of poltical strategy was enacted in the house yesterday that deprived repub- iicans Of with ssing a fight between the silver and anti-silver factions in the democratic party and at the same time cut off debate on the presidents veto of the seigniorage bill. Mir Bland called the bill up and moved that it be passed over the veto
 MT Tracey, of New York, raised the question of consideration against it. and Mir. Bailey made the point of order that the constitution required the con- sideration of bill returned with veto, and that the question of consid- eration therefore should not be raised against it. The speaker sustained the point of order.
 MT Bland stated that on Saturday at o'clock he would demand the pre-. vious question. From all quarters of the democratic side there seemed to be general desire to avoid the conflict of opinion in debate, and Mir. Bland's sug- gestion of three days debate was met with a chorus of cries of "vote, vote"
 Then followed remarkable scene. Members on both sides were confer ring in groups. The speaker, with up- moment Mir. Bland expressed will lingness to have the vote taken imme- diately. Mir. Reed, MT. Burrows, Mir. Dingley and Mir. Stone were in earnest consultation to the left of the speakers rostrum As it subseque ntly appeared they agreed that Mir. Dingley should make the opening argument for his side. Meantime no one addressed the chair and the speaker stated the question to be on the motion to pass the bill, the presidents objection to the contrary notwithstanding.
 'On this" said he, looking down upon the confusion on the floor, "the constitution requires that the vote shall be taken by yeas and nays" He hesitated Still everyone on the floor, engrossed with the programme in the | coming debate, needed him not. All those in favor will answer aye" he continued; contrary, contrary sign. !" Again he paused, but no one address ! ing him, he added with a bang ! of the gavel, the clerk will { call the roll" The clerk began to call the roll and had called out Mir. l Aliens name when Mir. Reed jumped up and said Mir. Dingley wanted to ad- | dress the house on the subject The ! speaker said it was too late, the roll 1 call had commenced. Then commenced | a tilt between the two and the speaker ordered Mir. Reed to take his seat .Ghe uproar being terrific at this point The | republicans refused to vote on the first roll call The anti-silver democrats were in despair, as the first roll call ! gave the silver men the necessary two 1 thirds. Finally, after consultation they agreed to vote and did vote on the second roll coll. This turned the tide, and upon the announcement of the vote it was found the motion to pass the bill over the veto had been de- feated, the silver men lacking "A, the ' necessary two-thirds.

THE MEXICAN EAR BEAN.
How France Saves Her Forests and Tans
 Her Leathers.

hoW france Saves Her Forests anu lahs
 Her feathers.
 While duck-shooting year or two ago on the shore of one of those beau- tiful lakes which render Michoacan the most picturesque of Mexican states the attention of the writer was drawn to a group of native women and children in the woods hard by, busily engaged in picking up and placing in baskets what at first sight looked like nuts. Curious to know what sort of nuts they were, l drew near and asked a bright little Indian girl what she had there. "Frijoles, senor," she said further learned from her that these frijoles (beans) were sold by the Indians for a cent and half a pound, and that they went in great ship across the sea to trancia (France), where they were used for tanning becerro Qeather) for zapatos (shoes).
 All this from a little tawny Indian girl not more than eleven years old. Furthermore l learned that this bean human ear, and that in their language It was simply the ear bean.
 It was news to me that there was a kind of bean that contained the astrin- gent of use to tan leather bethought | myself of the ruthless manner in which whole forests of oak and hemlock are annually felled and stripped of their bark in the United States and in Cana da, to procure material for tanning I and that, too, in places where drought from the destruction of the forests is becoming more oppressive every year. It seemed to me that this ear bean might be imported, to stay, in some de- gree at least, this great evil. l spent an entire day collecting facts about it which may be condensed into a para graph.
 These ear beans grow wild on a small tree which reaches the height of twenty and thirty feet with wide, branching limbs As many as ten | bushels often grow on single tree. When ripe they fall to the ground, and over many extensive tracts, not only in Michoacan, but in Colima and Guerre- TO untold thousands of bushels remain | ungathered in the forests. It is not difficult to hire the Indians to pick them up at one cent pound. The little ln- dian girl told me that she gathered 'dos cientos libras," two hundred | pounds, in a day.
 To be used for tanning, the beans have only to be dried and ground; and so rich are they in astringent qualities, that very small quantity of the bean meal is sufficient to tan hide. | The French tanners, l am informed, are quite willing to pay ten cents a pound for the dry beans; it is probable that they could be furnished to Ameri- can tanners for one-half that sum. - | Youths Companion.

Electric Suntroke

French doctors have been attempting to find a remedy for what has been termed electric sunstroke, Ian ailment heat so much as light. This peculiar affection frequently befalls workmen employed in melting metals by means of the electric process. It appears from observations made al steel and iron works that the intense voltaic arc between the carbon and the metal to be melted emit rays which, even at a distance of thirty feet, produce pain ful. hot, pricking sensation, like that of burn on such uncovered portions of the body as the throat, face, and, more especially, forehead. The skin of the parts affected becomes either copper colored or assumes a bronze hue; the eyes, in spite of black glasses, are so intensely dazzled as to be use- less for some minutes, after which an thopsia (yellow vision) sets in. Every thing appears saffron-colored, the con- iunctiva are infamed, and there is a gritty feeling as of sand under the eyelids. There is frequently great pain, also sleeplessness, and in some cases fever. It is now found that the surest and quickest cure for this affec- tion is perfect rest in a subdued light. Under these conditions the symptoms subside, usually in few days, the skin of the affected part peels, and the pa tient is restored to health.-Chicago trti h1nn

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach thediseased portion of theear. There is only one way to cure Deafn ess, and that is bycon- stitutional remedies. Deafness iscaused by an infiamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eus stachian Tube When this tube gets infiamed you have rumbUng sound or Imperfect hearing, and when il is entirely closed Deafness is the result, arfd unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an infamed condition of the mucous sur- faces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

klOWA LANDS,
Secretary Smiths Recommendations in
 Regard to Their Opening.

Secretary Smth's hecOmtnenuatiOnS iu
 Regard to Their Opening.
 WASHINGTON, April 5.-Secretary Smiths recommendation in regard to the opening of the Kiowa, Comanche and Apache lands were laid before the full house committee on Indian affairs yesterday. Accompanying this com munication is another from the com missioner of Indian affairs, who differs with the secretary as to the time of opening. Secretary Smith favors an opening of the lands as soon as practicable, while the commissioner suggests that the lands should not be opened for three years. The secretary of the interior has noth- ing whatever to say concerning the al- legged frauds of the commissioners ap- pointed to treat with the Indians. His opinion was not asked by congress on this question and has volunteered no suggestions.
 Concerning the manner in which the opening shall be conducted. however, there is no room left for speculation. He stands squarely by the provisions of the McRae bill providing for settle ment by public outcry. With the position of the secretary thus clearly outlined the only problem which the full committee will have before it itto-day is a determin- ation of whether frauds have been committed and who committed them. Testimony will be heard on both sides, and because of the strong influence which both the citizens and Indians have brought to bear it may require some weeks to reach a decision.
