A family consisting Of a mother
and two daughters has contrived a
plan by which they rob what is
known as "doing ones own work"
of much Of it's terrors. They have
arranged system of progressive
meals. BY this arrangement one
gets breakfast one day, dinner the
next and tea or lunch the next.
She does not have to wash the dish
es Of the meal she gets but the
other two do. Thus each day one
has one meal to prepare and two
meals to help clear away. The
other homework is divided up
with corresponding fairness. They
say that it is a very simple and
comparatively easy way Of work

the Senate Hawaiian cable amend
ment to the diplomatic and con-
sular appropriation bill, but the
sentiment OF the Senate is too
strong to be understood on this
subject. That amendment will
stand, or the bill will fail.
The Nicaragua canal bill will
probably get day in the House,
but as the House will vote on a
substitute for the bill which has
passed the Senate, the prospects Of
the bill can hardly be considered
good, even IL it passes the House.

SHAMEFUL SCENE.

An Ex-senator Thrown Out BY the
Jealous Sergeant-at-Arms.
In the house this afternoon considera
BILE of a sensation was created over the
forcible election from the hall of ex-Sen-
ator Martin of Bourbon county, who is
now state agent of Kansas at Washing
ton, by Sergeant alarms Jordan. Mr..
Martin was 'obstructing the lobby or at
least standing nearer the entrance than
the strict rules permit. Jordan did not
recognize MIR. Martin, ami ordered hun
to move away. Martin thought the
geant- arms was '.joshing," and did
not obey.
Jordan took this for an insult and pro-
ceeded to rush him out OF the hall Ia
lively football fashion In dong 80 the
scuffiing pair came near collIdIng with a
party OF ladies' While all this was GO
ing on Mr. Veale arose ana said, "nr
Speaker, | see the sergeant alarms is
using undue abuse on an ex-state sena-
tor"
The speaker called the sergeant-at-
arms to order.
Jordan explains it by saying he is
abused nearly every day for not keeping
the lobbies clear.
Only yesterday the speaker said, If
the sergeant alarms can't keep the lob
bies clear Pll appoint some one who
can. f"

one bill-the understanding before
the appropriation committee. Consider
alton of the sundry civil bill was then
resumed
Mr. Pettigrew offered an amendment
appropriating $30O.OOO for seed for the
drought sufferers OF the northwest
After short debate the amendment
was agreed to, 33 to II.
Mr. Stawart Pop, New moved to re-
consider the amendment already adopted
for participation by the United States in
an International monetary conference.
He said France was the only European
country in position to take part in such
a conference with aIy prospect of fair
ness to silver. He therefore would pro-
pose an amendment to the proposition
instructing the United States delegates
not to agree to any ratio below 16 to 1.
Mr.. Wolcott (Rep, Colo.) said he re-
gretted this division of opinion among
the senators from the silver states who
had so long stood together.
The senator from Nevada (Stewart)
declared this as a scheme of the gold
bugs. Was he forgetting the gallant
fight of the friends of silver the world
over which had just eliminated in sue
cess before the British parliament and
the German reichstag in favor of an
International conference? France, too,
was taking the initiative. Success was
at hand. It was the work of the friends
of silver throughout the world. Were
the friends of silver to pause at such a
moment of success?
MIR. Stewart again took the floor, de-
nouncing the proposed conference as a
"trade with our oppressors." Whatever
others might do, he would never consent
to such scheme.
The Stewart motion to reconsider was
defeated-yeas 9; nays 52
The affirmative vote was as follows
Allen, Black burn, Call, Cockrell, Kyle
Martin, PETER, Pugh and Stewart.
The negative vote included many lead
ing silver men such as Teller, Jones
(Ark..) George, Wolcott, Cameron and
Others
