McCreary Resolution Passed.

10y Il vote OF | Z. TO 80 the mouse adopted
the resolution condemning Minister Ste
vens and sustaining the Hawaiian policy
of Mr. Cleveland The Republicans fill
bustered against it to the end. Upon the
first vote the resolution was carried-l74
to 3-aDd an interesting parliamentary
question was raised as to whether III in
stead of 179 was a quorum, four seats be-
ing vacant on account of deaths.
The speaker held that majority of the
members chosen and living constituted a
quorum, quoting in support of his position
a review of the subject made by the eX-
speaker in the tifty-tirst congress.
His position, however, was warmly as
sailed by some of the Democratic members,
and it was finally agreed to take the vote
over again, so that the ruling was eventu-
ally withdrawn. The Boutelle resolution
was defeated by strict party vote. After
the voting upon these resolutions had been
completed Mr. Bland of Missouri made an
attempt to get up his bill for the coinage
of the SilvBr SeigniOrage In the treasury

Tracey and Cochran, inaugurated a tilibus-
ter, in which they were Joined by the ma
jority OF the Republicans, although few

they favored Il consideration of the bill

mainder of the Democrats were held at
bay. Finding that it was impossible to Sc
cure quorum to proceed with the consid-
Grafton of the bill and that the house might
be deadlocked indefinitely upon Che propo-
sition, Mr.. Bland directed his efforts to-
ward securing the adoption of a resolution
to revoke all leaves of absence and to in
struct the sergeant-at- arms to arrest alb
sentees.
After persistent struggle lasting until
Z o'clock Mr.. Bland was successful, and
the resolution was passed In order to
make it still more effective the order was
made continuing one until vacated by

SCHOOLROY LOVE.

'' II you love me''-said the trembling lips
Bent close to the cheek like rose fresh
blown,
And the ardent gaze Of the youthful swain
Sought the downcast orbs close beside his
own
II you love me '-Strove the faIt ring tongue
So vainly to tell what the heart held dear
And the flush rose high on the boyiSh brow
Ger the ripe red lips so inviting near
you love me'-then the pleading tones
Gained strength as the youth more cour-
ageous grew.
And the small brown hands nesting in his
own
Lay impassive there, as he nearer drew
=" AS love you''-ah the magic tale
That's been always new since the world
was young,
And repeated DER and DER again
The wide world around and in every tongue
No knife can cut'-that was easy. quite,
Twas the ming words that were hard to
say;
And gallant air rested on the boy
AS he closed his plea in a reckless way
"Our love in two' 1t was out at last,
And stolen kiss promptly sealed the VOW.
All, sweet was the tale in thu long ago,
And Sweet is the ling ring memory now.

An Oriental Critics View of Two of the

A Jewish professor, who is versed in
the Oriental languages, looked over
two weekly papers printed in this city,
one of them in the Hebrew language.
with Hebrew characters, and the other
in the Arabic language, with Arabic
characters. Look" he said, as he
placed the two pretty sheets together,
''at the peculiarities of the type used
in each of them. Take notice of the
power, breadth, depth, rectangularity
and solidarity of the Hebrew type
Take notice of the Saracenic delicacy,
the ornateness, the subtlety, ingenu-
itY and curvedness of the Arabic type
The contrast between them is very
suggestive. Again, the reader who
studies the style of the literary compo-
sitions in the two papers will notice
that Hebrew thought is broad, strong
and upright, like the Hebrew charac-
ters, while the Arabic thought is sinu-
Gus. tenuous and ornate, as the Arabic
characters. The differentiation of the
Hebrew from the Arabic, both in the
forms of the type and in the express
sions of the mind, will strike every
critic who places the two papers to-
gether, looks at them closely and
makes study of their contents Yet
both the Hebrews and the Arabs be-
long to the Semitic race and are mono
theists. History and circumstances
must be taken into account when trac-
ing the characteristic differences be-
tween the two branches of the family"
