Congressional Proceedings.

WASHINGTON, June 5.-HoUsE
When the House met today, two
unsuccessful attempts were made
to secure consideration of private
bills. Catchings from Committee
on Rules then brought in resolu-
ton providing for vote at 5
o'clock today on the Brawley bill,
the rest of the day to be devoted to
debate under the five minute
rule.
SENATE House bill granting
construction of New York and New
Jersey bridge, passed the Senate
today,with amendments,w which will
probably be accepted by the House.
After other routine business, the
tariff bill was laid before the Sem
ate and the sugar schedule was
again taken up. Senator Higgins,
Republican, Of Delaware, opened
the debate with several assaults on
the sugar schedule, and an ar
gument in favor Of continuing the
bounty provision Of the Mckinley
law.
Henderson next proposed an
amendment, decreasing the bounty
One-tenth of cent each year, until
the time fixed in the Mckinley
law for total expiration. This was
also defeated by yeas 81, nays 81.
Allen and Kyle who had been vot-
ing with the Democrats voted with
the Republicans on this amend
ment. Hill did not vote.
Henderson then offered an
amendment applying bounty
to beet and sorghum sugar
only. This was defeated, yeas 81,
nays 80. Allen and Kyle voted no.
Henderson offered another amend
ment combining bounty to sOrg-
ham and beet sugar of '95, reduc-
ing it to one cent per pound. This
was also defeated, yeas 80 nays 81.
Allen and Kyle voted yea. Allen
offered an amendment to add
at the end of paragraph, pro-
viso that the bounty shalll be eight
tenths Of one cent for sugar pro-
duced in the United States in '94.
This was also defeated; yeas 81,
nays 40. Speaking on the sugar
schedule OF the tariff bill, Senator
Chandler expressed his belief that
the senators had speculated in
shares of the sugar trust, while
the tariff question was pending.
He said no vote should be taken
until the investigating committee
had probed the whole subject with
undue influence.

When Giving a Musicale.

At an evening musicale 1t is
wise to limit the performance to
either the amateur or professional
ranks, as the enforced contrasts
are apt to be to the detriment or
the former. However, there is no
rule in the matter, and it is Ger
tainly matter which rests only
with the hostess for decision
whether or not she shall add her
talents to those she has engaged
for the entertainment of her
guests. 1t is not usual to have dis
tributed programs at social mu-
sicale; il the event be given
for any special purpose and
if there are tickets sold for it,
then the patrons of the entertain
ment expect to receive programs.
Neither is it usual in the former
case to announce either the seleC-
tions or the performers. A clever
hostess will contTive to present
few Of her most musical guests to
the performers early in the even
ing, so that the artists may enjoy
the social side Of the musicale. Do
not attempt, if you have a large
number of guests, to have every
one meet every one else. See that
the most congenial people meet,
and that no one is left in solitary
T editation, but do not attempt
general introductions at a large af-
fair.-June LadieslH Home Journal.

necessarily, though not those COM
moAly conceived Of. She is often
plump, pretty, amiable, interesting,
intellectual, cultured, warm
hearted, benevolent, and has ar
dent friends of both sexes.
These constantly wonder why
she has not married, for they
feel that she must have had many
opportunities. Some of them may
know why; she may have made
them her cOnfidantes. She usually
has a sentimental, romantic, fire.
quently a sad and pathetic past, OF
which she does not speak, except
in the sacredness of intimacy. She
is not dissatisfied, querulOus nor
enviOus. On the contrary she is for
the most part slngularly content,
