Don't live single hour of your life
without doing exactly what is to be done
in it and going straight through it from
beginning to end. Work, play, study,
whatever it is, take hold at once and finish
it up squarely. Then do the next thing
without letting any moments drop in be-
tween. 1t is wonderful to see how many
hours these prompt people contrivc to
make of day. 1t is as if they picked
up the moments the dawdlers lost And
il you ever find yourself where you have 50
many things pressing upon you that you
hardly know wl>ATe to begin, let me tell
you secret Take hold of the very ono
that comes to hand, and you will find the
rest will fall into line and follow after
like a company of we'll drilled soldiers,
and, though work may be hard to meet
when it charges in squad, it is easily
vanquished if you can bring it into line

have her eyes bandaged and stay in a dark

HOUSE PROCEEDINGS.
Day Was Devoted to the Indian Ap.
preparation Bill.

Day Was Devoted to the Indian APP
preparation Bill.
Washington, D. c., Jan. 17.-The day
in the House was again devoted to the
Indian appropriation bill and fair pro-
gress was made. A nunloeT of amend
ments were adopted, the most import
ant being to pay the Cherokee nation
81, $50, 900. An amendment by Mr.
Picker to discontinue the services of
army officers as Indian agents was
ruled out of order.
In the House today the Senate amend-
ments to the urgent deficiency bill were
disagreed to and the bill sent to con-
ference.
Richardson, of Tennessee, chairman
of the Committee on Printing, as a
matter of privilege, had read a para
graph printed in a local paper relating
to the Incorporation in the printing
BILL passed at the last session, of a
clause extending the franking privilege
to members of Congress for correspond
ence with officials and private individ-
uals on official and department bust
ness. The paragraph Indicated that
the clause had been incorporated in
the bill surreptitiously.
Richardson read from the record
showing that the clause had been de-
bated and adopted by a vote of AZ to
40.
The House then went into committee
of the whole for further consideration
of the Indian appropriation bill.
General debate was closed, and the
bill was considered under the five
minute rule for amendment.
Mr.. Caruth Oemocrat), of Kentucky,
took occasion to supplement- his remarks
of some days ago against the national
postage movement that looked to the
reduction OF letter postage. He re-
tracted what he had said previously
concerning Lyman ]. Gage, of Chica-
go, who, salong with other responsible
gentlemen, withdrew their connection
with the movement last October.
| Mr. Flynn Republican). of Oklahoma,
| offered an amendment to increase the
appropriation for the subsistence and
civilization of the Arapahoe and Cher
okee Indians from $4,000 to $4,000.
| Rejected.
On motion of Mr.. Bowers, of Cali
! fornia, the paragraph providing $780,
900 for the support of the five tribes
| in New Mexico and Arizona, was
amended so as to strike out the lines
| specifically mentioning the Apachas,
in order to place the tribes all on an
equal footing.
MIR. Coob Democrat. of Missouri, Of
fered an amendment TO pay the first
installment, due March A, 1885, to- the

THE BROOKLYN sTRIAE E.
Still UnsettIed-BOth Parties Ar,
Very Confident.


Brooklyn, n. Y, Jan. 17.-Still the
great trolley strike remains unsettled,
and both the officials of the compan-
les and the strikers claim to be sure
Of victory.
Aside from the breaking of the strike
on the De Kalb and Franklin avenue
lines of the Brooklyn and Newton
company and the running of a, few
cars on the Putnam avenue line, the
situation is practically unchanged
Presidents Lewis and Norton, of the
Brooklyn Heights and the Atlantic
avenue roads respectively, stand firm
They declare they have nothing to ar.
bitrate and that if the men wish to
return to work at the old terms fbJev
may do SO. If this offer is not salts
factory, the officials further state their
places will he filled by men who are
coming in from outside cities. Presi-
dent Lewis has laid the blame for The
stoppage of traffic on the city, declar,
ing that had the companies been ar
forded proper police protection, the
cars ON all lines would have been run,
ming on schedule time. The disturb
ances today were of a trivial nature.
Tonight the conference between the
arbitration commissioners, the repre-
sentatives of the strikers and Presi-
dent Wickers. of the Brooklyn, Queens
County and Suburban company agreed
on all disputed points save one. Presi-
dent Wicl1ers said ne had brought $50
men from other cities under contract
and that these men would have to be
provided for. To this the strikers
would not agree and the negotiations
ended. Another attempt at settlement
will be made tomorrow.

several millions. This would require
the eventual abandonment of F'8fts
Walla Walla, Sherman and Old Fort
Spokane.
Mr.. Mitchell Rep.). of Oregon, pro-
tested against the change and said he
had assurances that the Walla Walla
fort would be retained. a spirited de
bate followed as to the location of
northwestern forts. In the. course OF
it, Mr.. Bate Oem) of Tennessee, said
his committee was being urged that
Seattle should be the point for the
great rendezvous for Pugent Sound.
Mr.. Henderson urged the necessities
of army centers along the Canadian
border The British government had
already established an extensive rem
devious on the Pacific coast and it be
l1ooved the United States to make ac-
tive preparation i'm the Puget Sound
region.
The consideration of the army bill
was not concluded when, at $50 p. m.
the Senate went into executive session
and at 5:45 p. m. adjourned.

ANDERsoN's pLAN.
ThurstOn Approves Assessing the
Stockholders to Pay the Debt

Omaha, Neb.. Jan. 17-Genera1 So
ncitor Thurston, of the Union Pacific,
stated today that Mr.. Anderson's pro-
position as to assessing the stock OF
the company and extending the gov
eminent lien for fifty years at per
cent. was the fairest scheme which
could be devised for the protection OF
the government debt. He thought il
would prove very acceptable to the
stockholders, as it would wipe out the
first mortgage indebtedness and make
the government interest frs mort
gage on the property. L would like
to see the Pacific roads taken care or
of at this session of Congress, but the
chances are greatly against any RENE
dial legislation now"
Mr. j. H Willard, who is large
stockholders in the property, said that
if the other stockholders agreed to
the assessment, he presumed he would
be in line. He thought. however. that
the government debt ought to be wiped
off the slate and the road made inde>
ipendent of government interests. The
sentiment of other prominent Omaha
Union Pacific stockholders is in &C,
cord with Mr.. Millard's ideas,

air is charged with all sorts of ru-

further than to say that the Sweet
men are steadfast and the ShOup men
are relying on getting the 8 scattering
Republican votes and two from the
Sweet men, making 20 with the two
| Democrats counted in. Should this be
accomplished, Sweet will still have the
solid 10 against Shoup's Is Republican
votes. 1t certainly looks as though the

morrow and such an additional factor
now would disclose much on which
lines of thought can be laid.

the House members have already made
up their minds. While able politicians
are vainly endeavoring to figure tan
gible results they admit that so far
Sweets chances are the best. Should
Shoup line up in strength with Sweet
then might a dark horse win in a
canter.
There are those who claim to know
that Treasurer Bunting has only been

result. Either he or Mcconnell is
destined to early change the present
