SELF DENIAL.

The Salvation Army is all alive and
actively engaged in preparing for its
annual Self Denial week which takes
place throughout the United States
from November 18th TO the 22d inclu-
slve. Large sums of money have been
raised in past years and 1t is Won
derful testimony TO the army's devel-
opment and activity. Each member of
the army, as well as the friends of its
many social institutions, are asked to
abstain from all luxuries, and in many
cases officers and soldiers have actually
determined to do without certain ar
ticles of food which are ordinarily con-
sidered necessary, in order that by their
acts of self-denial they may add fnan-
clal support to the army and its many
different branches of work. The social
operations throughout America have
been greatly developed during the past
twelve months; new food and shelters
have been opened in New York, San
Francisco and Kansas City respective
ly. AS natural consequence, there
fore, the demands upon the armys
funds have increased and this will re-
quire still greater effort to raise cor
respondingly increased amount during
this special Self Denial week. The to-
tai aimed at is $4,000.

NO PROSPECT OF LEGISLATION.
Senator Carter Thinks the Coming Ses-

Washington, November Ex-senator
Carter, of Montana, said today he saw
no prospect Of any important legisla-
ton at this session Of congress. He did
not believe the Dingley bill could pass
and thought the session would be de-
voted to appropriation bills and sparr-
ing among political parties for position.
AS to tariff legislation in the next con-
gress, Senator Carter said he believed
the Democrats would not obstruct. no
matter what the silver Republicans
might do. In his opinion those who
were claiming and believed hard times
could be cured by silver must allow Re
publican tariff legislation to be enacted
or they would meet tariff fight in the
next campaign.
