THE PRINTING bill which had pre-
viously passed the U. S. House of Rep
resentatives, passed the Senate yester-
day evening and is now a law. By it
the public printer is directed to employ
twenty-five apprentices. This section
was opposed by Senator PETER, the
populist, at the instance of labor
union, the members of which don't
want boys to learn trade by which,
az men, they can earn an honest living.
The government printing office has, for
several years, been run, not under the
rules of the government, but under
those of a labor union. The provision
IN the bill referred to indicates that the
government is coming to its own again.

A resolution was offered by MT.
Henderson and agreed to, calling on
the Secretary of Agriculture for infor-
nation as to the experiment in the
planting of native pine seed in the sand
hills of the northwest.
House bill to prevent interference in
the collection Of State. county and
municipal taxes assessed against COR
porations and corporate property was
taken up and explained by Mr.. Coke.
He said that it was intended to apply
to railroads which were in the hands of
receivers-it having been held that all
power on the part of the States to col
lect taxes from such railroads was with
drawn. The passage of the bill, he
said, was absolutely necessary in order
that State revenues might suffer no
diminution. The bill had been report
ed unanimously by the judiciary COM
mittee.
On objection by Mr.. Mitchell the bill
went over till tomorrow.

of the S per cent. greenback certificates

HOUSE.


The order for the consideration OF
the bill to protect the public forest re-
servations which was pending when the
House adjourned yesterday was with
drawn.
Mr.. Hatch presented the conference
report On the agricultural appropria-
ton bill, showing an agreement on all
items except the Senate amendment
appropriating 81 ,000,000 for the extinc-
ton of the Russian thistle, and moved
that the House insist upon its disagree
ment to the Senate amendment making
the million dollar appropriation and
agreeing to a further conference asked
by the Senate.
Mr.. Gear moved that the House re-
cede from its disagreement to the
amendment. He said the spread of the
Russian thistle was so great in the
Northwest that in his opinion it had
become the duty of the government to
undertake the work of its eradication.
Mr.. Baker, who made the report
quoted, said that from all that the COM
mittee could learn were satisfied

madam thistle, against which farmers
had had to contend for hundred years;
nor was it so difficult to eXtinguish as
it was to clear land in many parts Of
the country of underground and rocks.
Two years work, in his opinion, would
see its disappearance from the States
now affected.
After discussing the conference re-
port on the agricultural appropriation
bill for an hour the House voted l76 TO
50 to insist upon its disagreement to
the Senate amendment and to agree to
the conference asked by the Senate.
SIessrs. Hatch, Forman and Waugh
were named as managers on the part of

operator in Connecticut, was brought
into court at Bridgeport the other day
rs witness in suit. and asked to
produce certain kilograms which had
passed through her hands. She de-
clined. The court ruled that she

authorities which supported her posi-
ton, and said that she should not pro-
duce the kilograms. The court tsok

There is trouble in the quiet little

the pastor of the Lutheran church.
The pastor instructed the children to
come to him for Catchism. preparatory
for confirmation, at : O'Clock in the
afternoon. They asEed the princi-
pals permission TO 90 and he refused,
saying that the pastor should appoint
an hour that would not interfere with
their school duties. Then the pastor
was angry and went to the school to
demand their dismissal, and the prin-
cipal ordered him out of the building.
He went to the school board and
charged that the principal was an
atheist, a socialist, an anarchist and
drunkard. and demanded that he be
dismissed from the school. The
board, however, is inclined to stand
by the principal and thinks that the
real trouble is that the pastor wants
to run the school and cannot. The
charges arc not considered well

The ordinary oolong tea, costing 60

about 10 half-pint cups to the pound,
while the same amount of Ceylon sill
yer tipped tea, costing $32, will sup
ply over 1900 half-pint cups, and in
addition is vastly superior to that of
the common brands. The intrinsic
value Of imported teas rarely exceeds
that figure, but in certain instances,
where the tea market has been cor
