followed by his dismissal. Senator'S Gray
AMI Halo maintained that senate. ~ priyi-
lege and prerogatiye should not be strained
TO close the mouth of the Spanish minister
Mr.. Hoar asked that his resolution postpOn-
ing the entire Cuban subject until April 6, sc
over. This aroused Mr.. Sherman to an en-
ergetic protest. He declared that Mr.. Hoar' Q
resolution was q reflection on the commit
tee on foreign relations and an effort to
shelyc the Cuban resolutions after weeks o.
discussion and overwhelming votes in both
houses. Mr.. Sherman finally withdrew his
objection.
SEVENTY EIGHTH DAY.--The speech OF Sen
ator Hoar was the eventful feature of the
Senate. Mr.. Hoar set forth the conserya
tive view of the subject and urged postpone
ment OF action until April 6. This developed
many sharp controversies with Mr.. Sherman
and other Senators. Mr.. Hoar's resolution
TOR postponement lost its parliamentary
status and went to tho calendar. Mr.. Sher-

resolutions Mr. Turpie closed his speech In
opposition to the claim of Mr.. Dupont for
seat in the Senate.
SEVENTEENTH DAY.-Senators Sherman
and Hill were the conspicuous figures in the
Cuban debate in the Senate, the New York Sem
ator forcibly urging the mercenary character
Of the pending resolutions, while Mr. Sherman
upheld them with another graphic arraign'
ment of Spain and General Weyler Sena or
Hill urged that the resolutions lie defeated
In order that they might be amended and
the mercenary features eliminated. Mr..
Sherman declared that war in Cuba was
1agrant and the evidence OF it abundant. In
the course Of his speech Mr.. Sherman pa o
tribute TO the patriotism and fidelity Of Pre- :
ldent Cleveland and his readiness to uphold
the conn rvs flag.
EIGHTIETH DAY-There was spirited
reference to Cuba in the Senate, when it de-
yeloped during an explanation by Mr. Lodge
that the committee on foreign relations had
received from Secretary Olney statement
by Senior Dupuy de Lone, the Spanish min
lister, 81 wing the Spanish view of the case.
This brought out very animated suggestions
from Mr. Hoar ard Mr. Wolcott that the
Senate be put in possession of this important
testimony. Mr.. COckrell, OF Missouri, spoke
On the financial question from the silver
standpoint, and Mr.. Hoar, in the course OF
an inquiry stated that it was the ablest silver

STAGE HORSES BRING LUCK.

Actors Like to Play In Company that

There is an old theatrical supersti-
ton that horses are very lucky to have
in a play, and theatrical superstitiOns,
like all others, die hard. There are one
or two leading London managers who,
Il they were to reveal their Utmost
thoughts, believe in this superstition,
and to this very day. "Cut the cackle
and come to the 'osses," was the favor
lite maxim of the celebrated Ducrow,
and be had good cause to believe In
~'osses," for they made him one of the
most prominent men of his time.
Sir Augustus Harris Is firm believer
In the horse theory, for there has not
been q recent successful Drury Lane
drama in which a horse has not ap-
peared, while a great many of them
have owed their success in a great
measure to the introduction of the
equine. In the present drama running
ut DTury Lane is represented for the
first time in the history of the stage a
polo match with trained ponies, that
have often played in matches on the
actuai ground at birmingham, In the
mimic representation of which, on the
stage, they appear every night.
Sir Augustus Harris tells a good
story of one of these ponies, beautiful
little gray, formerly the property OF
Sir George Scott During one of the re-
hearsals the ponies were brought down
near the footlights that they might get
accustomed to the glare and so not get
frightened during the performance at
night, 1t so happened that one of the
dummy horses that are used in the bat
tie scene-the Last Stand~~waS lying on
the stage. The little gray pony caught
sight of it, and struggled until he got
over to where it lay. He shifted and
shifted at 1t for some minutes and
seemed to be very much puzzled; final
~, TO the great amusement Of every
body on the stage, he made a vicious
bite at the dummy's ear, which, not
being very firmly attached, came of
The pony stood still for minute with
a strange, frightened look in his eyes,
and then took to his heels up the stage.
For weeks afterward 1t was impossible
to get the pony to come down anywhere
near the footlights.
The largest theatrical stables In the
world are those kept by a hOrseman
near Drury Lane Theater. Here one
often sees more than 100 horses that are
being used for various theatrical pur-
poses. From these stables horses are
sent all over England with touring
companies. Often there will be as
many as 200 horses travelling in various
parts Of the country from this estab,
iIshment alone.-BOston Traveller,

advice during the last few months.
Think what volume of experience
she has to draw from! No physician
living ever treated so many cases of
female ills, and from this vast expert
ence surely it is more than possible
she has gained the very knowledge
that will help your case.
She is glad to have you write or cali
upon her. You will find her woman
full of sympathy, with great desire to
assist those who are sick. If her medi-
cine is not what you need, she will
frankly tell you so, and there are nine
chances out of ten that she will tell
you exactly what to do for relief. She
asks nothing in return except your
good will, and her advice has relieved
thousands.
Surely, any ailing woman, rich or
poor, is very foolish if she does not
take advantage of this generous offer
OF assistance.
Never in the history of medicine has
the demand for one particular remedy
for female diseases equalled that at
tainad by Lydia E. Pinllham's Vege-
table Compound, and never in the
history of Mrs. Pinkham's wonderful
Compound has the demand for it been
80 great as it is to-day.

One Thing Left Out.

In acrobatic, gymnastic and athletic train
ing one thing seems to be entirely left out; a
thing which, If practiced, might prevent
many serious consequences and thereby be-
come the useful part Of training. How to
fall down easily and gracefully, with the
least amount of resistance by the muscles,
might be made fine art. Why not adopt
slide and practice feet-slipping with these
objects In view. Everybody knows that at
this season the worst injuries result from not
knowing how to fall. There seems TO DO
nearly always II complication OF injury in
every fall, such as sprain. bruise and often
broken limbs 1t is true that for all these
mishaps, either separately or in complicated
form, and especially for sprans. st. jacobs
Oil is the best known and surest cure. Speak
ing of sprains, tho very worst often result
from falls, because the muscles sustain such
violent twists from resistance. but whether
there is practice Of the art or not, the Aroat
remedy for pain is sure to euro.
