Senator Mills Thinks 1t Will BE
Reported This Week.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-Mr. Mills,
Texas, has withdrawn from the Senate
committee on finance. Mr.. Mills says
II am not member of the committee
and only went on it as an emergency.
Vest came to me and said JONES'. of Ar
kansas, was i'll, Mcpherson away from
the city sick, and Vance down in Florida
trying to recuperate his health, and he
wanted me to join with him in getting
the bill in some sort Of shape, SO that the
work could be done in good time. Under
such conditions went to work with
him and Jones, who was soon thereafter
able to join us. MCPHERSON has recov-
cred and is now in the Senate doing his
work; and being member of the com.
mitteee it is no more than righ: that he
should go on with it in my stead as
was but temporarily filling his place."
Mr.. Mills thinks the bill will be re.
ported this week.

three mills manufacturing worsted goods
and one large mill manufacturing cotton
warp. The proprietors of all these

and sending petitions to congress signed
by their operatives with the intention
of influencing its members against the
passage of the Wilson bill, claiming that
they have suffered great loss OF business
through fear Of its passage. They made
this an excuse for cutting the wages of
their employees one month ago. Today,
however, after the passage Of this bill by
the House and a certainty of its passage
in the Senate, these concerns are running

CHICAGO, April l0.-Joseph Brown, a
Hebrew. under indictment for bigamy.
has just escaped the law because hist two
wives both agreed to grant him church
divorce, which precluded either woman
from testifying against him in town.
Brown, his two wives and two Hebrew
rabbis, went through an elaborate cere-
mony in the Jail. and at its conclusion
the rabbis pronounced the divorce
Brown was then taken before Judge
Baker. who dismissed the criminal
charge The Judge was decidedly averse
to this part Of the program, but he could
do nothing else, as the two women de-
clared they would not testify against
Brown. Wife No. I was married in
Buffalo, n. Y. eight years ago. and still
lives there with her three children.
Brown deserted her last summer, and
married No. in Chicago. and the two
women, when the deception was dis,
covered. combined forces TO prosecute
the faithless husband. After he had
languished in Jail some time, however,
they relented. and procured the Hebrew
divorce, which gave the church's sane
tion to the re-marriage Of all three. thus
setting him free. Wife No. l, after the
ceremony, procured copy Of the in
dictment against Brown. remarking that
she would make it warm for hin il he
troubled her in Buffalo.

The most careful search through cy.
clopedias and similar works OF reference,
fails to disclose when and where man
discovered that il was easier and swifter
to haul load on wheels than to drag it
along the ground or carry it in his hands.
But, though the origin OF the wheels is
thus ancient. IT is remarkable that no
advance was made in the applications Of
il TO mechanics or useful purposes. for
many centuries. The Egyptian, the
Assyrian. the Greek and the Roman,
each had his war chariot, but he knew
nothing Of the elegant and luxurious
carriages ofser day. Wheeled vehicles.
and every machine in which wheels
were used. remained, down to the early
years Of this century, in almost as rude
a state as ever The great awakener of
mechanical invention was the steam en-
gine. a servant of man whose power was
limitless and its endurance inexhaustible.
Did you ever think what our modern
| world would be without wheelsy No
clocks. no watches, no carriages. no
steamboats,, no railroads. To wheels is
due the existence OF our great railway
systems, such as the Burlington Route.
| which unites Chicago. st. Louis. Denver
Kansas City. ST. Paul. Minneapolis and
other principal cities Of the west with a
steel highway. For safe. speedy and
