Washington, Jan. 11.-The debate on
the senate free coinage substitute for
the house bond bill was again post
poned owing to the intervention of
Mr.. Stewart. the Nevada Populist, who
insisted upon making speech in ia
v0r Of the Elkins resolution as amend
ed by the Butler amendment to pro-
hibit the further sale of bonds except
by the express consent of congress.
The free coinage substitute was called
up at the end of Mr.. Stewards speech
and now has the right of way, SO that
the vote upon it can be postponed no
longer. Mr.. Stewards speech predict
ed the failure of the popular loan prop
ositiOn of the administration, intimat-
ed that the loan had already been un-
dcrwritten by the gold syndicate, re-
iterated the senator's well known free
silver views, and concluded with an
appeal Off the financial as well as the
present independence Of the United
States. In the morning hour Mr.. Ba-
ker introduced 4 resolution somewhat
expanding the Monroe doctrine, and
made speech in favor of Its adoption

ton of our policy with reference to the

In the house the following resolution
was referred to the committee on for

From the Boston Globe.
Raising peacocks and pheasants is
new business in this country. To supply
their wants a number of millionaires ara
importing birds and eggs from England.
George Vanderbilt is among the number.
He has already a lot of peacocks OF the
breed curiously called "Japanned"-per-
haps because their feathers have metal-
| lie, lacquer-like glittering. They are Of
ten wrongly spoken Of as the japanese Or
Japan peacock. Theodore Havemeyer has
recently imported lot Of pheasant eggs
Of the choicest breed. He sent them tn
his model farm, Mahwah. N. j., and then
invited a company Of bantam hens to
hatch out the young birds.
| Peacocks, although not a common sight
I'm this country, are occasionally seens
pheasants are even more rare-but. as all
ready said, demand has arisen for them.
and lucrative business should be carried
on In dealing with both the eggs and the
birds.
In Suffolk, England. there Is pheasant
new upon one estate where more than
10000 eggs are sold annually. To visit
Warwick castle is to see peacocks in all
their glory; indeed the place is famous for
these birds, OF which the handsomest ara

Hardships of Telegraph Poles.

YES" said Joseph Bonner, super
intendent of telegraph for the SolSh-
ern Pacific railroad, telegraph poles
along the line have a hard time. Par
ticularly Is this so out west, where the
poles are costly and stations are few
and far between. Now out in Ari-
IONA desert the poles are played the
deuce with generally. There is a sort
of woodpecker that picks the posts abb
solutely to pieces, thinking there may
be insects inside the wood. They hear
the humming and haven't sense
enough to know what causes it. Then
near the hills the black bears imagine
that each pole contains a swarm of
bees and they climb to the Top and chew
the glass insulators to pieces but the
sand storms are the things that create
the most havoc. When the wind blows
strongly the sand is drifted at a rapid
rate and the grains cut away the wood
at a fearful rate. 1t was a common
thing to have an oak pole worn to a
shaving in a days time, while / have
seen poles just ground in the surface
of the earth during a single stoyn.
Things are so bad out there that the
company decided to substitute steel
poles for the oak and cedar, but that
didn't remedy the evil at all. The sand
just wore away the metal on each IN
Of the pole until the center was as
sharp as a razor, and all the Indians
used to shave themselves on the edge.
We finally managed to fix things. Just
painted the poles with soft pitch. The
pitch caught the sand, and now every
pole is about two feet thick and as solid
as rock."-New Orleans Times
Democrat.

time he had seen man with her-a
man who had placed his hand upon

He told me he had watched them for

her TO follow him somewhere. AT this
juncture, unaware that he was gazing
at vision, he had rushed to her assist

He also told me he had studied the
mans features and general appearance

recognition. All these ridiculous state
