CONGRESSIONAL FORECAST.
The Tariff Bill Holds Undisputed
Sway in the Upper
House.

Mondays advices from Washing
ton all tend toward the opinion that
the present week will be wholly de-
voted by the House to the consider
alton of pending appropriation
bills. The Republicans developed
an obstructive policy during the
consideration of the diplomatic and
consular bill, which was completed
last Thursday, consuming an entire
week by means of unimportant
amendments TO unimportant items.
The Democrats fear that this policy
is to be continued in furtherance of
a well settled programme to delay
the passage of the regular appro-
priation bills. Should it be devel-
oped during the week that such is
the fact a special order may be nee
essary to expedite matters. After
the completion of the army bill, the
consideration of which was begun
Saturday, it is probable Mr., Dock
cry will be allowed to bring forward
his bill reported by the joint com
mittee on expenditures in the de-
partments to reorganize the system
of counting in the treasury depart
ment, which is designed to re-
duce expenditures in the depart
ments $180,OOO. 1t is necessary
that the bill be disposed of before
the legislative, executive and judi
cial appropriation bill, now in pro
cess of completion by the appropri-
ations committee, is framed, as the
changes it makes in existing law
must be Incorporated in that bill. AS
soon as it is out of the way the river
and harbor bill will be called up. In
case the Republicans persist in an
obstructive programme, an attempt
will be made to pass it under sus-
pension of rules. The managers of
the House are very much in earnest
in their determination not to per
nit any resolutions bearing on the
Coxey movement to get into the
arena of debate.

IN THE SENATE.


The course which the tariff debate
may take in the Senate this week
will depend entirely upon develop
ments from day to day. The agree
ment for the limitation of debate
on the tariff to certain hours each
day has expired, and the Republi-
cans have shown no disposition to
renew it. The Democrats have
been successful in the advance of
the hour for meeting, from l2 to II
o'clock, but they only take the bill
up each day after the disposal OF
the routine morning business by a
yea and nay vote, and are making
progress by elbowing themselves
along. They have not decided
whether they will attempt to extend
the debate until a later hour each
day than has yet been observed,
Their programme in this line will
depend on the progress that may
be made with the compromise now
on hand The feeling is general on
the Democratic side that if they
get a bill that demands the support
of the entire Democratic side of the
chamber, the Republican antagon
ism will weaken, that the opposition
will be content to make earnest
progress but without any effort t
prolong the final vote beyond the
time necessary to discuss the var
ious schedules in a business like
manner, and that night sessions
may not be resorted to,
Senator Harris said that ht
thought if the Republicans once be
came convinced that there was M
prospect of opposition to the bill
among Democrats they would yielC
gracefully to the inevitable and al
low the bill to pass after expressing
their reasons for their antagon
ism
eff we succeed in reaching tina
state" he said, "and Republical
Senators take this view of the mat
ter and conduct themselves accord
ingly it will not be the policy Of tn
Democratic management Of the bill
to impose any unusual hardships o
Senators.
The Republicans have not ye
given up the hope of a schism i
Democratic ranks but they will an
nounce no policy different from tina
which they have been pursuing ur
til it is made manifest that all tn
Democratic Senators have unite

shown they will continue the pres
ent tactics with more frequent ro
calls and a more decided protes
against long hours than have ye
occurred,

trimmed with jet or fur.
Crepons and cballics are being made

The sleeves were Of the crepon, made
elbow-length, and were trimmed with
g deep flounce of lace which reached
to the end of the fingers.
Every woman's wardrobe this coming
summer will have TO contain, if she
wishes to be at all in the fashion, at
least one India silk dress. The darker
shades are worn in the street, but the
lighter colors, heavily trimmed with
lace, will be most used for afternoon
wear in the country.
These dresses arc the most useful
things for summer wear. They are
thin and cool, and repel the dust in a
way no other material that has yet
been introduced has ever done. Black
and white, dark blue and the new
shade of amethyst combined with white
arc all much in demand.-Vogue.

hUCKABUCK DARNING.
A New Material Which Is Well Adapted
to Linen Embroidery.


to Linen Embroidery.
Since linen embroidery has been so
much the fashion, it seems that every
sort of linen, from its finest to its
coarsest degrees, has been used, but
until recently only the plain linen and
no fancy weaves have been called into
use. Now new material has been in
troduced into the realm of fancy work.
This Is hucl1abuck. and for the en-
broidery a fine piece, evenly made, is
required.
Everyone knows that the prominent
patterns in hucllabucls are the three
parallel threads which rise q little
from the rest of the cloth. Use fat
embroidery needle, and any colored or
white washable silks, and darn under
the three threads, leaving the silk
threads loose to be prominent.
One stitch, and perhaps the prettiest
one, is that in which after darning I'M
der group of three. you take rs your
next three a group in the next column
and one back In this stitch You work
in diagonal line, but by continuing
YOU will find that it comes out even.
This darning was introduced at first
to make simple and easily cleancd'neck-
ties for girls summer outing costumes,
and they arc very pretty for gentle
men, to 60 with Il tennis or other rath-
err negligee suit.
But from this beginning varied
line of embroidered things has sprung
ND, in all Of which the darning is en-
ployed.
Very pretty and cool-loolSing pill
lows, for use on rattan couch or in a
summer house. have the white huclsa-
buck darned in with cool shades which
form decided contrast, or with white.
which, as the front may be easily
washed, and the back. too, if huclla-
buck is used for the whole, can be kept
very bright and fresh looking.
Then come bureau scurfs. dressing
table mats, table covers. and anything
for which linen has been used.
The prettiest finish for the embroid-
cry is plain undarned hem, as hucka-
buck does not hemstitch we'll.
The work is quickly done, and is
fascinating kind of fancy work.
Since it is done easily and it is not
especially trying. it is a pretty bed COW
ering and especially for u single bed
all draped in white it is a dainty adorn-
ment. Boston Herald

THE FLYING MACHINE.
A New Light Upon Very Popular Blu
Unsolved Problem.

Unsolved Problem.
It seems to be impossible for any
machine, natural or artificial, of greater
weight than at most a few hundred
pounds, to lift itself straight up in the
air, or even to maintain itself it the
same place like lowering bird, by the
force of propellers alone and without
the aid of balloon. Therefore, there
must be some device other than, or IN
addition to. propellers to raise the ma
chine in the. act of starting. But OBJ
serve, said straight up. Many birds
can not rise so. They must rise at
very gentle incline. They must get
onward motion before their wings can
get1ull effect On the air. 1t is said
that the mode Of taking the condor is
to build pen. say, forty to fifty feet
in diameter and six feet high, and put
carcass in the middle of it. The
condor alights, but can not again
rise at an angle which will take
him over the fence. Many heavy
bodied, short-winged ducks rise from
tie water at so small an angle that
they must use both feet and wings for
A,irtysto.forty feet in order to get on
ward motion enough to give effective
ness totheits wings by coming in con-
tact with larger masses of still air, as
already explained. 1t follows, there
Tore. that, the flying machine must
have. some station device to start it. It
may he an elevator, but more probably
twill lie machine rollers on a rail-
way. Wdth@ropIane spread and slight
". inclined and epropellers directed
little backward, velocity might be got
sufficient TO sustain and finally with
,the help of the propellers to raise the
machine. AS far as can learn, this is
