BROWN UNIVERSITY.

Sayles Hall held its most select and at
the same time most enthusiastic audience
for years last evening at the annual mid
winter concert of the musical clubs of
Brown University. Elevated platforms
in the front, tastefully decorated with
potted plants and the national banner,
formed point of vantage from which the
musicians made superb appearance. Tho
execution Of a long and varied program
proved that the standard of the
organization was worthy OF high
rank. Mr.. Will r. Gardner, elocutionist,
and pantomimist, rendered several bu-
morous selections In manner indicative Of
much natural talent and pithful training.
The hearty and repeated encores at almost
all the pieces given is the best criticism OF
the affair.
The details of the Sophomore Ball to be
held February 21, in Lyman Gymnasium

House of Representatives.

Mr.. Smart presented q resolution to re-
quest the Senate TO ret urn to the House
for further consideration the resolution
10 gay the charges of the commission on
State House land. Mr.. Smart moved the
passage of his resolution and Mr.. How
land seconded the motion.
Mr.. Kmball raised the point OF order
and claimed that Smart's motion was out
of order because in effect it amounted to a
motion to reconsider a resolution already
without the jurisdiction of the lower
branch. And then Mr.. Smart brought
out his Washington literature and read
selections therefrom in support OF his
motion. Speaker Allen allowed that the
General Assembly of Rhode Island was
not necessarily governed by the same
rules as those in use in the National
Congress.
Smart reminded the members that last
Friday was very stormy and that he could
not get down from the Third Ward in
time to express an opinion in the land
condemnation expenses. Mr.. Gray
said that "weather" was the
lamest excuse that man could offer, and
Smart did not get the necessary unani-
nous consent at that time to again crate.
Mr.. Studley presented a petition from
Taylor, Symonds d Co. and others that a
law OF insolvency for Rhode Island be
enacted. Ii was referred to the commit
tee on judiciary.
Mr.. Munroe presented n bill for an act
in amendment to the act providing for a
retired list of the State Militia, referred
to judiciary committee.
Mr.. Gray presented bill for an act TO
incorporate ST. George Lodge, No. IA,
Knights OF Pythias; referred to the COM
mittee on education.
From the committee on engrossed acts
came the bill to amend the charter Of the
Elmwood Club and the bill was passed.
A bill for an act to divide the town of
Tiverton into voting districts, which had
passed the Senate, was referred to the
committee on engrossed acts.
Mr.. Wilson said that 1t was too late 10
get the resolution back, and II 1t was
brought back, what would Mr.. Smart dc
with IL? The vote 90 reconsider had
already been lost, and under rule 40 n vote
to reconsider can not itself be reconsid-
cred.
Then, in reply to Smart's reiteration o
the fact that he had been absent mt tn,
time the costly resolution was passed
Mr.. Wilson remarked that the Hous,
could do business without him.
~sir. Speaker ruled that Mr.. Kimball',
point OF order was we'll taken and Mr.
Smart appealed from the decision OF tn,

CHICAGO, Feb. 15.-The car barns and
power houses of the Lincoln avenue cable
line are on fire and will be total loss.
The fire originated in some oiled
rags and spread with such rapid
ity throughout the barn that
1t was found almost impossible to save
any OF the cars which had been run in for
the night. OF the 100 passenger and grip
cars stored in the barn but nine were
saved. The fremen managed to confine
the flames to the storage barn. During a
portion OF the time there was grave appre-
hension lest q tank containing 5000
gallons Of crude petroleum, which the
company uses for fuel, should become
ignited, IA it was but few feet away
from the blazing barn. The fire was un-
der csntrol, however, before the tank had
been placed in serious danger. Total
loss on building and cars is estimated at
$500, 900.

STILL BLOCKED.
The Ice Cakes Make Navigation
Difficult.

There still remains enough ice in the
bay 10 make the passage of vessels any
thing but easy. In some places the ice
has left the shore and has doated in
large fields down the bay. The steam
tug Nottingham, captain Lewis, the
largest and most powerful, tug on the
Eastern coast, came up TO this port about
IL O'Clock today with barge No. Of the
Central Railroad Company OF New Jersey.
The tug Is made principally of steel
and her bow is almost like q knife
but she had considerable difficulty in
coming up the river, especially in the vi
entity of the Ohio ledge. Here the tug
was held prisoner by the ice about five
minutes. She backed down the bay a
short distance and then the steam was
turned on to its fullest capacity and the
obstruction was then overcome.
This boat made q channel for the tugs
of the local tug company and the
schooners Benz. A. Van Brunt, Wallace
Ward and Lucinda Sutton were towed
into the harbor.
The tug c. b. Sanford with the barges,
Hopatcopg and Choctaw also arrived in
port. The Sanford sailed light.
The steamer Chatham of the Norfolk
line and the Nashua OF the Providence
line will sail as usual this evening.
The X. A. Packer proceeded to New
York this morning with one Or more of
the fianges OF her wheel gone. The Tug
Sea King also sailed with the
barges, Advance and Cactus. The
tug Governor Hoyt, that arrived
yesterday morning and sailed last night
for Newport, is expected to arrive with
two barges. A new difficulty is being
experienced, and that is, the harbor
is being filled up with Darges and
vessels of all sorts and the steamers find
it rather difficult to break out new
channel and stear clear of the other ves-
sells at the same time. The har Dor master
has taken hand in the matter, and will
have the vessels change their anchorage.

dissenters not responding to tho call
for noes. But Mr.. Smart assured
the House for the seventh time that he
was satisfied and sat down with honor"
But honor soon had chair 10 all to itself

luton to the effect that here

not serve for glory and patriotism might
have their salaries limited by statute.
He moved that his resolution be referred
TO the Judiciary committee for "calm de-

Men die in the big cities like the trees,

prostration, shock, congestion of the
brain and suicide that characterizes the
mortality lists in the great centers OF pop
ulation.

be always on the alert and quick to avoid
danger, as well as TO zee the lucky chances.
1t is impossible to go slowly even II ono
has no pressing need for hurry. The rush
is contagious. One finds oneself drawn
along by the rapidly moving crowds,
and is soon hurrying with the rest. 1t u
undoubtedly true that two-thirds of all
the men and women one sees tearing
through the streets are in no such actual
haste. They are merely victims Of thin
fearful habit of hurry.
But whether the fearful rush il essens
tial or not, the result ia the same. Nerves
and brains are exhausted, men and wo-
msn grow prematureIy aged, times OF de-
preston follow the highrtrung condi-
tion. The entire nervous system must be

cidedly low along the edge OF

the North Pacific slope, and the existing con-
ditions point TO at least two days of fair
weather.
The range over New England is slight.
Cloudy, threatening skies. with scattered
snow fiurries are general in this district, at
tended by brisk easterly winds from Cape Cod
