ROW IN The HOUSE.
The Pension Question Makes a
Lively Scene.
Members Exchange Hot Words
on the Floor.
JERRY SIMPSON IN IT.
Says He is Ashamed of Jones of
Virginia.
JERRY SIMPSON IN IT.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-There was
another row at the night session of
the house last night, which grew out
of the events which transpired last
week. Feeling ran high and bitter
words were spoken. It started after
the failure of an effort to increase the
pension of the widow of General
Abner Doubleday and to pension an
other widow who performed services
as voluntary nurse during the rebel
lion. Both bills were blocked by the
obstruction of Mr. Jones of Virginia.
Mr.. Simpson of Kansas, Mr.. Cox of
Tennessee and Mr. Moses of Georgia
were drawn into the controversy.
Feeling ran high, and it looked for
several minutes as if personal en-
counter might occur. Mr.. Simpson
tainted Mr.. Jones, declaring that he
was not only surprised but ashamed
that man should come from the
South and say that he still believed
in the lost cause.
Mr.. Talbert of South Carolina at
last came to Mr.. Jones rescue. Gas
to the lost cause" he shouted, sit is
the everlasting cause and never can
be lost, because it is the cause of lib
erty."
Mr.. Jones got the floor just before
the time for adjournment was reach
ed. He branded Mr.. Cooper's language
toward himself as unworthy of a
gentleman. 81 want to say" he added,
that when the question was asked
me last week, l answered that L was
proud of the lost cause. To say [
believe my cause was not right
was SANDER. L always said and
maintained everywhere, as I do now,
that | know that cause was right"
At this point the hour of 1920 p. M.
arrived and the house stood adjourned
under the rule. Had the debate been
prolonged amid the excit ement and
feeling that had been engendered it
might have degenerated into per-
sonal combat.

tackled twice. Twelve were killed
and all the rest were captured, from
| whom it was learned that the leaders
of the rebels were Sam Now1in,. for
merly colonel of the queens house
hold guards, and Robert Wilcox, who
was the leader of the revolution in
1887, the other prominent ones being
half whites, formerly in the service
of the queen. After the surrender
the natives came dropping into the
government camps in lunches, until
there was soon more prisoners than
troops The prisoners claimed they
had 600 rifles, but only 200 men were
arrested.
From statements OF the natives, it
was ascertained that the captain of
the little steamer Waimanalo was
arms with which the natives were
supplied. The entire crew was ar
rested. The mate confessed, and
when confronted with his testimony
the captain also acknowledged his
guilt. The government claims to
have evidence of the whole transac-
ton. from the original purchaser
until their final disposition.
Up to 4 P. m. Tuesday thirtyfour
of HOnOlulu's prominent royalists,
not including natives, were under
arrest.
AS soon as it was known in Homo
lulu that there was organized resist
ance to the government, no time was
lost in communicating the fact to its
supporters, both by telephone and
messenger. No general alarm was
given, it not being deemed necessary.
In response the four companies of
militia donned their uniforms and re-
paired to their armories, the members
of the citizens guard reported at
their respective rendezvous and yet
so quietly was everything done that
many in the city were unaware
that anything had happened
out of the usual Sunday quiet Be-
tween and p. m, however, the APP
pearance of squads of the citizens
guard at every corner told the tale.
People were quietly warned to go
home and stay there. Every import
ant avenue was guarded by squads
numbering from twenty to forty
members of its body, leaving the en-
tire police and military force at the
immediate disposal of the gov
eminent. Cabinet and army Off
Gals made their headquarters at the
marshals Office during the night but
nothing occurred to warrant particu-
lar alarm. In the morning the news
from the front decided the govern
ment to take immediate and strin-
gent measures for it's protection.
At $50 a. N. martial law was pro-
claimed and all saloons and liquor
stores were closed. The news of the
death of Carter, who was a popular
young lawyer, and was recently cleo
ted a member of the legislature, in
tensifed the general feeling. and it
would have gone hard with his assas-
sins had they not been strongly
guarded. By noon Monday all the
stores were closed and there were
few people on the streets. The street
cars and busses were stopped and the
only excitement was at the marshal s
office, where arms were being dis
tributed. etc.
The announcement that the writ of
habeas corpus was suspended was
quickly followed by one requiring all
persons not engaged in the military
or police force to deliver all arms or
ammunition in their possession to the
marshal within twenty four hours.

ulating lengthy findings on the local

likely to result at the next meeting
of the association.

Animal Fur.

Fur is thread-like fiber which
grows out of the pores of the skins of
animals. 1t grows in length from the
root and not from the top. as with
vegetable productions. The lower pOr-
ton merely lengthens out, and the top
projects forward, consequently. if once
cut, it will always remain blunt. 1t
is tubular and filled with oil, which
gives to the fiber it's color. In addition
to the oil it contains mineral matter,
among which are sulphur and iron. A
close examination of the fiber will, to
a certain extent, show the section of the
country the animal inhabitS. The short
and crisp, with an oval or angular
cross section indicates tropical growth /;
the long and soft, with circular cross
section. Northern climate. The fibers
from different structure and value,
that which is taken from the back OF a
land animal being the finest, while the
reverse is true of the animal which
confines itself mostly to water, the
belly being much finer than the back.

DUBLIN STREET.

Property Owners Cali lAttentiOn to
 Some Needed Improvements.
 A petition will soon be presented to the court of common council by property owners on Dublin street, asking that sidewalk be laid on that street, east side, from the Dub lin street station to East Main street. The bridge built on Dublin street a few years ago was constructed with two good foot. paths, but the one on the east side has never been used, the road at either side of the bridge never having been put in shape so that pedestrians could reach the walks.
 The work will entail considerable ex- pense, for it is believed that retaining wall will have to be made from the depot to the bridge. The land at this point be- longs to the railroad company. and the residents feel that the city should compel the corporation to put the street in front of its property in proper shape for public | travel.
 The city fathers will also be reminded that there is no sidewalk on either side of of the street south of the bridge for d distance of several hundred feet. This work, it is said, was ordered done when Mir Colley was street inspector. Some of people complied with the order, but for some reason no one knows why. the work has not yet been completed at this point. The walks along the entire length of the street are sadly in need of repairs. and a couple of crosswalks would be greatly appreciated There is but one crosswalk from Dublin street bridge to St Joseph's cemetery gates
