fayofably scled upon during the two special
days given TO their consideration. Mr. Erd-
man Pa, d. aud Dir. Talbert q. C.. ID. threw
such obstacles ia The way Of the bills as they
could. Tbirty-four were held up because they
were not engrossed, but 100 were passed, leay-
ing about 60 yet Enacted upon.
In the evening the entire session was spent
IN a futile effort 10 obtain a quorum, which
was made necessary on point OF order raised
by hr. Tslbert O.. c. at the beginning OF the
session. Mr.. Talbeft FIRST asked for unanimous
consent TO proceed with the consideration Of
pension bills only. and that all bills relating 10

In the Senate, Mr.. Gibson ND. d. ad-
dressed the Senate in opposition to the bill
restricting immigration. He urged that there
was no reason TO turn back the immigrant

Don't Make a Mistake.

Now, don't you make a mistake
by imagining that some beers are
just as good as Rainier or Olympic.
Remember that the Seattle Brew
ing and Mailing Co. have made it
a study of how to brew only the
purest and healthiest beer. Others
may try to initiate, but can they?
Perhaps, by relying on their i'm
agination. If that's the case, an
artist ought never be out of cash.
He could draw money any time he
wanted to. True it is that the
Seattle beer drawn at the Criterion
saloon can't be beat.

Death OF Miss Susan c. Cover in

The New Haven Morning Journal
of February 3rd, contains an ex-
tended obituary notice of Miss
Susan c.. Cover, who died in New

The immediate cause of death was
blood poisoning following two oper-
ations for appendicitis.
Miss Covers life in this country
is referred to as follows:
It's coincidence worth noting that
Miss Cover was born on missionary
ground on the island of Maui, Hawai-
ian Islands, during the time her father
was collector at the port of Lahalih
Her mothers attendant physician was

place, and two devoted wives OF mis-

island, still survives her and two
Younger sisters born in New Haven
The only son of the family died neal
Cheyenne, Wyoming, nearly twelve
wears since, and her own mother en-
tered into rest more than thirty year
ago. This brief notice would be in

fact that the sublime faith and trus
