NICARAGUA BILL PASSED.

NICARAGUA BILL PASSED.
The bill pledging the faith of the
United States to do the construction
of the Nicaragua canal passed the
senate by the decisive vote of 81
yeas to 81 nays. 1t was the termi-
paIion of a debate which has lasted
since the present session began. 1t
was, moreover, the first realization
In either branch of congress of the
vast project, 80 long and vigorously
urged for canal joining the Allan
tic and Pacific, with the United
States government standing sponsor
for the execution of the work.
The bill in brief directs the issue
of $7O,000,O 900 of Nicaragua canal
bonds. Each of these is to bear the
following guarantee:
'"The United States OF America
guarantees to the lawful holder of
this bond the payment of the Mari
time Canal Company, of Nicaragua,
the principal of said bonds and the
interest ACQUIRING thereon, and as 1t
accrues."
An additional 30,000,000 of
bonds is to be issued without the
United States guarantee. The total
sl0o, ,0O0,0 thus issued is to be used
in construction of the interoceanic
canal. The secretary OF the treas
ury is to have general supervision of
the project. A board of fifteen
directors is to have immediate
charge Of the work. or this board,
the president is to designate ten
members, no more than two from
any one state. The United States is

HAWAIIAN POLICY ENDORSED.

HAWAIIAN POLICY ENDORSED.
President Cieveland's policy to-
ward Hawaii was sustained in the
senate by vote of "a to %. The
resolution was offered by Mr.. Vest
as an amendment to a previous reso-
luton on the subject by Mr.. Allen
(pop) of Nebraska and is as follows !:
"Resolued, That while the people
OF the United States earnestly SYM
pathize with the effort to establish
republican institutions wherever
that effort is made, they reaffirm the
policy of non interference unless BY
agreement with the affairs of other
nations and recognize to the fullest
extent the right Of every people to
adopt and maintain their own form
of government, unaided and uninfu
enced by foreign dictation. That the
administration of President Cleve-
land in maintaining this policy as to
our foreign relations deserves the
approval and support of the Ameri
can people,"
The vote was on party lines, with
the exception of Mr.. Pettigrew (rep.)
of South Dakota, who voted with
the democrats. By singular coin
cidence this one vote carried the
resolution, as it would have ailed on
a tie.

SENATOR VESTS SPEECH.
In the United States senate Senator
Vest presented resolutions of the St.
Louis chamber OF commerce urging
that the presidents recommends
tlons be carried out as soon as pos
sible.
Mr.. Vest said that the chamber OF
commerce Of st. Louis did rot repre-
sent the feeling Of the people OF
Missouri or Of the country on the
financial question. He did not
believe the people favored retire
ment OF $500, ,0OO, 900 Of greenbacks
and treasury notes and the substitu-
tion OF no currency at all. He did
not believe they favored gold obliga-
tions running fifty years with interest
aggregating s75, ZOO, 900 at the end Of
that time. 1t was selfish suggestion
that posterity should be left to pay
this bad debt. The obligations OF thii
senate were as binding toward pos.

QUEER LANGUAGE.

The "Can.phor Tongue" Of . Wild but In
offensive Race.
One Of the queerest languages in the
world, used for the queerest purposes,
is the "camphor language" of Johore,
q country Of the Malay peninsula. 1t has
lately been studied and reported upon
by Mr.. Lake, an English engineer in
the service of the sultan Of Johore. This
language is called the "Pantang Ka-
por," or camphor language, and is used
by the natives and all others who are
Engaged in gathering the product Of the
Malayan camphor tree and only at that
time. If they used either of the Ian
guages OF the region, the Malay or the
aboriginal Jakun, the natives believe
that they could not obtain any camphor,
and for a most curious reason. The CAM
phor tree, Dryoblanops camphora, grows
abundantly in certain parts Of the Pc
ninsula, but only occasionally contains
camphor crystals. The camphor is not
the same as that obtained from the cam
phor laurel Of Formosa and Japan,
which is the source Of the ordinary cam
phor OF commerce. 1t is a sort very
highly priced by the Chinese in the en-
balming Of their dead, in incense and in
medicine, and the gum brings much
more than the common camphor.
The Malayans and other Johore n
tives believe that each species of tree
has q spirit or divinity that presides
over its affairs. The spirit Of the cam
phor tree is known by the name of BIZ
san-literally "a woman" Her resting
place is neal the trees, and when at
night q peculiar noise is heard in the
woods, resembling that of a cicada, the
Bisan is believed to be singing, and
c~amphorswill surely be found in the
neighborhood- But the spirit of the cam
phor tree seems to be jealous of the pre-
cious gum and must be propitiated, and
if she knows that hunters are in quest
Of it she will endeavor to turn their
steps aside. So it is necessary to speak
in a tongue which she does not under
stand. For this purpose the "camphor
language" has been invented. 1t con-
sists of q mixture of Jakun and Malay
words, but these are curiously altered
and reversed, and the natives positively
believe that the divinity Of the camphor
tree is completely confused. The Jakuns
who hunt the camphor are one of the
widest of people, but inoffensive. They
live together with monkeys, dogs, cats,
innumerable fowls and perhaps a tame
hornbill in perfect harmony under NOV
able leaf shelters built on poles in the
woods. Boston Traveller.

Animals That Commit Suicide.

Intelligent observers have testified to
facts which appear to show that in GER
tain circumstances the snake, scorpion
and even some qnadrupeds commit sui
eide. NJ. Henry, a clock manufacturer of
Longuyon, France, has recently described
an experiment. of the kind which he
made with a wasp. The wasp was i'm
prisoned under a glass, and knowing
that benzine asphyxiates insects he put
some paper soaked in it beside the cap
tive. The wasp became uncomfortable,
then angrily attacked the paper, but find
ing all its efforts unavailing it finally
lay down on its back, and folding up its
abdomen planted it's sting thrice into its
body. M. Henry was SO curious to con
firm the fact that, in spite of his hu-
name feelings, he repeated the expert
ment on three wasps with the like re-

kins and Frobisher. Eight fire ships
having been sent into the Spanish fleet,
they bore of in great disorder. Profiting
by the panic, the English fell upon them
and captured or destroyed a number Of
their ships, and Admiral Howard main
tanned a running fight from July 81 to
July 81, with such effect that the Span
ish commander, despairing of success,
resolved to return home, and as escape
through the English channel was pre-
vented by contrary winds he undertook
to sail around the Orkneys, but the yes
sells which still remained to him were
dispersed by storms or shipwrecked
among the rocks and shadows ON differ

and upward Of 5000 men were drown
ed, killed or taken prisoners. OF the
whole armada 53 ships only returned to
