for Today-Ogden on Monday.
Evangelist Crittenton held a meet
ing for children yesterday afternoon in
the First congregational church. The
meeting was well attended and the
preacher talked very entertainingly to
the little ones His text was taken
from the gospel according to st. Mark
chapter TO- verse IA: "a Little Child
Shall Lead Them" An incident which
he related was about little boy
named Willie. whom the speaker met
at Santa Fe last summer. Willie
seemed very sad. He said he wanted to
go to Jesus. but he was a very bad boy
and he knew he couldn't. When [
asked him what he had done he said
he had been smoking and swearing and
doing lots of bad things, and that he
just knew he couldn't be saved; but
told him and I tell you that Jesus will
cleanse all sins.
Mr. Crfttenton went on to tell of
several personal experiences of his,
and among them the following:
At the fall of the Pemberton mills,
which some of the older people among
the congregation may remember, there
were employed a number of young
- I
some of the girls had attended a re-
vival meeting I held there. and when
the people came to the scene of the
accident they heard the music of
song coming from the ruins. The re-
frain of the song was. 81 am going
home, [ am going home. I am going
home to die no more" Soon the sing
ing died down to one voice, 81 am
going home to die" and the rest was
finished in heaven.
After this cards bearing the words
Il hereafter promise to live a Chris
tian life" were passed around among
the audience and many were signed

HAWAIIAN ANNEXATION.
The House Receives Definite Resolu
 tions to That End.

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-The sub ject of the annexation of the Hawaiian islands was broached in the house to- day by MT. Spalding, Republican of Michigan, in a resolution which pro vided that the Sandwich islands be created into new state to be called Hawaii, with republican form of government to be adopted by the peo- pie through deputies in a convention with the consent of the existing gov ernment. Conditions were proposed that all questions of boundary or complications with other governments be transmitted to the president to be laid before congress for final action be- fore January l, 1898, that all property pertaining to the public defense be ceded to the United States; but that the state retain all other property and the United States be liable for none of it's debts.
 A resolution was proposed as an al formative that Hawaii may be admit ted as state by treaties between the two governments with one representa- tive in congress and proposes an ap- propriation of $100,000 for making the treaties. The resolution was referred to the committee on foreign affairs.
 MT. Henderson, Republican of Iowa, stated that the committee on rules would not be able to report until to- morrow at 2:45.

UNDERVALUED IMPORTS.
A System Whereby the Foreigner Se-
 cures Advantage.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 8.-The house ways and means committee began work today on the proposed scheme of legislation to prevent the undervalua- tion of imports by customs officials. Hearings will be given to interested parties and there will appear before Ihhe committee Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Hamlin and two mem- bers of the New York board of ap- praisers. It is believed that foreign dealers now secure distinct advantage over American producers in home mar ket under prevailing methods of ap- praisal and that there is in operation a far reaching and successful arrange menIt to ship goods into the country far lower than tariff rates.

IN THE NATIONS CAPITOL No Tariff Amendmentin in
 the Senate. Hawaiian Annexation Definite
 ly BroaChed. New Bills and Resolutions Brought 70 the Attention of Con-
 gross.

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-The for nal session of the senate today had in it little of interest.
 Senator Wolcott of Colorado who has been absent in Europe for some months was present in the senate to- day and took the prescribed oath.
 Senator Hale from the committee on naval affairs, reported back favorably the bill authorizing the secretary of the navy to increase the number of enlisted men in the navy. He directed attention to the importance of the bill and gave notice that he would call it up at an early date.
 Senator Butler, Populist of North Carolina, offered two substitutes to the house bond bill. The first prohib- it's the sale of interest bearing bonds without the expression of the senti- ment of congress, and the second makes it mandatory on the secretary of the treasury to redeem greenbacks and treasury notes in silver as long as the market price of 4121a grains of silver is lower than that of,291a grains of gold. .a
 At the conclusion of the morning hour Senator Sherman moved that the senate adjourn. He explained that an early adjournment would facilitate the work of the senate, it being under stood that the Republicans desired to hold a caucus Senator Stewart re- quested Senator Sherman to withdraw his motion in order to give him an op- portunity to make some remarks on the financial question, but the Ohio senator declined to yield. Accordingly at 12:30 the senate adjourned until to- morrow
 Immediately after adjournment the Republican senators caucussed on the tariff bill It was the general impres- sion that the only method open to the Republicans was to pass the bill as it came from the house.
 The Republican caucus after a stormy session agreed to instruct the finance committee that the tariff bill must be reported without amendment and passed in that form.

WORKING AGAINST SILVER.
The Gold Senators Lack Four of a
 Majority.

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-The anti silver Democrats of the senate held a conference today while Republican senators were in caucus. The object of the conference was to count how many men could be mustered against the free coinage amendment of the senate finance committee to the bond bill.
 It was found that there are four teen sure votes on the Democratic side against the silver proposition and the Democrats were assured there were twenty-six Republican votes that could be counted against the Jones amendment
 Four more votes would be necessary for a majority of the senate. Both Republican and Democratic anti-silve1 men are now making an effort to see ii these four votes can be obtained.

Cape Colony, and Dr. Jamieson from Africa, and that an enormous fine is also demanded from the British char tered company.
 It is supposed here that this may according to a dispatch from Berlin the Transvaal government will de- mand of Great Britain.
 A dispatch to the secretary of state for the colonies, Joseph Chamberlain, from Sir Hercules Robinson dated yesterday and just made public, says the Uitlanders of Johannesburg, have surrendered internationally and given up their arms to representative of President Kreuger.
 In addition the latter has intimated his intention of handing over Dr. Jamieson and the other prisoners cap tured by the Boers to the British high commissioner on the border of Natal. Sir. Hercules Robinson in the dispatch adds: "You may, therefore, be satis- fled that the crisis is iver and all dan ger of further hostilities ended"
 The dispatch is regarded by Cham berlain as practically settling the crisis in Africa and the Transvaal, so far as the Boers are concerned, and is also looked upon as disposing of the report that Jamieson has been sen- fenced to death.
 A dispatch from Berlin says Prince Hohenlohe. imperial chancellor, was present at a conference this morning between Emperor William and D. Kayser, chief of the German colonial office.
 A dispatch from Krueger's Port Transvaal, dated January 8, says Dr. Jamieson narrowly escaped being shot in the market place by incensed Boers and was saved by the commandant who threatened to shoot the first man who raised a rifle.

A Delightful Section of
 the Valley.
Intelligent Administration of
 It's ToWnSite.
improvements Lately Made on the Line of the Santa Fe
 Road

Within the Salt River valley there lies no choicer spot than Peoria, on the Santa Fe line, fourteen miles northwest of Phoenix. Here has been laid out townsite and, under the care and intelligent supervision of H. c. Mann, its interests are advancing.
 Through the townsite runs the Santa Fe line and along the track has been laid out very park, extending fifty feet out from the railroad right of way. and planted to trees and palms. At the center of the town and on either side of the track are also provided two parks, planted to trees and shrubbery suitable to the climate
 There is the neatest depot on the road provided for the travelling public, and within few days it will be oe- cupied by an agent. Down the road a bit, two acres have been set aside for a stockyard and shipping pens, and their construction is now begun, with all the material on the ground, and from there will be hereafter shipped the greater portion of the cattle pastured on the Arizona canal lands.
 Schooling is provided in the neatest of little school houses, where Miss Anna Perley reigns, with all apprecia- tion from the community and with the best of results in the advancement of her charges on the road of learning.
 Church there is as well, the pulpit being filled O Sundays by Rev. H. A. Thompson, an able young divine of the Presbyterian persuasion.
 Peoria with. the benefits of high natural attractions and of liberal in telligent direction will soon be known as one of the most populous and most delightful residence sections of Ari- zona, where winter homes will be sought by appreciative men of wealth.

NOTABLE VISITORS.
Col. Fred Crocker and J. sSloat Fassett
 Arrive in Phoenix

Yesterday mornings Maricopa & Phoenix train from the south brought to Phoenix private car wherein were visitors of more than ordinary i'm portance. The car was that of Col. Fred Crocker, first vice-president of the Southern Pacific railway, and as
 his guest came J. Sloat Fassett, at one time collector of the port of New York, temporary chairman of the last Republican National convention and
 unsuccessful nominee of his party several years ago for the office of gov ernor of the Empire state.
 Messrs. Crocker and Fassett came, their car attached to the Sunset flyer. through without stop from San Fran cisco. At Maricopa they were met by Manager Honshell of the local road. and under his guidance they will visit
 during their stay of several days the
 various points of interest within the
 valley. Yesterday afternoon was spent with Whirelaw Reid, who is an
 especial friend of MT. FIassett, and in
 the evening the party joined the jolly throng at the board of Surgeon-Gen- eral Helm.
 Inquiry as to the cause of the visit of Col Crocker elicits no more satis- flying reply than that the reports re- ceived in San Francisco regarding the local opportunities for an extension
 of traffic have given the Southern
 Pacific officials, to a greater degree than ever before, an interest in the Salt River valley and in Phoenix. It is Col. Crocker's first visit to the
 valley and from his limited survey of
 yesterday he is delighted with this
 new revelation of Arizona's capabili- ties. Coming over from Maricopa al
 most the first agricultural expanse was comprehensive of thousands of acres of alfalfa pastures, whereon were graz ing in near view fully 15,00O head of cattle, almost every hoof of which had been brought in from southern Ari- | zona, furnishing traffic for the South ern Pacific and it's connections, and therefore doubly cause for interest. | Full data has been furnished by MT. | Honshell to the Southern Pacific of
 fees of the productions and capabili-
 ties of the Sat River valley and here
 it is understood the railroad has at
 last acknowledged a most available noiu iol HeW uuSlHeSS. 10 TnlS 6nQ
 the valley is to be given all possible
 prominence in the publications of the.
 company.
 In furtherance of this policy about
 January 20 will arrive in Phoenix H..
 B. Huntington, assistant to President
 Huntington, with offices in San Fran
 cisco. His visit will be for a matter
 of two weeks, during which time he
 will be a guest of MT. Honshell.
