than 5000 volumes. This wonderful

1000 B. Q. to 1900 A. d.
1t owes its origin to tho literary pro-
clivities of tho Emperor Kang-he, who
reigned from 1863 to 1922. LII the
course of his studies of the ancient liter
allure of his country Kang-he discovered
that extensive corruptions had been al
lowed to creep into modern editions,
and no conceived the idea of having the
text of the originals reproduced and pre-
served III an authoritative form. This
was mighty conception truly, and in
Its execution it remains unique down to
the present time. For the purpose OF
carrying out the work, Kang- he appoint
ed commission Of learned men to So
lect the writings to be reproduced and
employed the Jesuit missionaries to cast
copper types with which to execute the
printing.
Tho commission was occupied for 40
years i'll its great task. Before the work
was completed Kang-he died, but he
had provided that his successor should

THE WORK OF CONGRESS.
The Senate Quickly katifes the
Treaty with Japan. a.s.
THE AMENDED CURRENCY BILL

The House banking and Currency Com-
mittee Decides to Present the Measure
Without Recommendation, Thus Precip-
itating Another Interrninablo Debate.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 81, The session of the
senate yesterday was unusually eventful
In giving expression to the Intense feeling
which has been aroused by the financial
question and to the apparent hopeless
ness OF arriving at a solution. Mr. Sher-
man tO.) urged the senate to take the sub
1ect from the finance committee, where
the task of framing bill, he declared, was
hopeless by reason of a tie. Mr.. Sherman
arfalRned the advocates of free silver for
pushing their demands to the point of par
hlyzing Legislation. He asserted that the
present emergency could readily bo met
py issuing bonds of such simple and con-
venicnt form that they would be taken by
the people as we'll as the banks.
Mr., Vest lent personal interest to the
debate by declaring the president was seek
ing to make congress accessory to the
welding Of the simple gold standard on
the people. The senator asserted that there
must now be separating of the ways be-
tween him and the president.
MIR Hill On. W also spoke briefly, ex-
PiesslhB tnc DelIef that congress would
speedily aid the administration if the lat.
ter would make known what it actually
wanted
The senate spent tho rest of the day in
executive session on the Japanese treaty,
which was ratified after two hours debate.
The only vote taken was on Senator
Whites amendment providing for the ex-
ciusion Of Japanese laborers in clearer
terms than in the treaty This was de-
feated, 26 to 10. This would have seemed
to dcteat ratification of the treaty, as a
two thirds vote in its favor was not pos
siblo if the sixteen should hold out. After
wards in the discussion it was claimed
that an amendment adopted providing
for abrogation in one year would serve to
meet immigration difficulties as we'll us
others, and this Wow was apparently ac-
cepted.
The consular and diplomatic appropria-
tion bill as reported to the senate provides
for the construction of cable between the
United States and Hawaii The president
Is authorized to contract for the entire
work of laying the cable and as pnrt of
the cost of such cable the sum Of $5O0,Oo0
is appropriated. Another amendment APP
propriatos 5000 for the protection of the
property Of the United States in the Sar
moan Islands

]. Rendel Harris lectured before the
Friends School yesterday afternoon Be-
side the scholars large number of friends
of the school were present. The subject
was "A Journey to the Convent of st.
Katherine OH Mount Sinai" The talk was
illustrated with stereopticon views. Mr..
Harrls's connection with the discovery
and decpherment Of New Testament manu-
scripts in the convent of st, Katherine and
his own pictures Of the locality made the
lecture OF special interest.
He said that things in the HolyI.and at
this day remain the same as they always
were, That the modern tourist is Illus
trating the events of Moses's time. They
go over the same route and live in much
the same manner His travels from Suez
to Mount Sinai were described and showed
the views Of the most important places
visited. Among them was the great rock
which the Arabs say Moses struck.
The convent on Mount Sinai about 5000
feet from the summit was shown. Among
the manuscripts found were passages from
the Old Testament written in dead Ian
gusges.
