Prince Bismarck was elghty-one years

Prince Bismarck entered the saloon
at 11:3O and found displayed on table
his birthday presents. He was anec-
tionRtely greeted by his son, Count
Herbert Bismarck. and his daughter,

WASHINGTON, April 1-Through
the persistent efforts Of Congressman
Dayton, an important amendment was
to-day made to the sundry civil bill,
when the provision for the national ge-
ologlcal survey was being considered.
and the overwhelming sentiment In its
favor induced Chairman Cannon to per-
init It to 30 through without objection.
The provlso. which makes the future
surveys OF practical benefit. has the
sanction of the committee of the whole
and will tomorrow come up IN the house
as nn ugreed proposition.
The amendment provides that when
surveys are made there shall be erected
on the ground, In the ratio OF one to each
six square miles OF territory, stone or
iron monuments or "bench marks" ap-
propriately inscribed, so that by compar-
ison with the map the deposits and their
character and extent may be readily as
certained.
Strange to say, in all previous surveys,
this important provision fof the infor-
nation OF the people has never been
made. It's value Is lncalcuTable IN a
state rich In minerals like West Nir-
ginia or Pennsylvania
The western members made the first
move, and succeeded In getting the
amendment to the bill, but applied 1t to
states beyond the Mississippi. Director
Walcott, the head OF the geological sur
vey, brought 1t to Mr. Dayton's notice,
and he enlisted others in an effort,
which was ultimately successful, to
make the law apply to all the states,
the township provision for the west
finding its equivalent In the six square
miles clause finally admitted.
The sundry civil bill viii command at
tentIon tomorrow, and succeeding that
win come the Cuban resolutions. 1t Is,
therefore, not anticipated that the riv-
ers and hnrbors bill will be reported
from the committee before Monday The
measure is being carefully revised and
when reported will be tho result OF more
hard work than has been given similar
bill In years. It is believed that 1t win
contain sundry items OF interest to West
.VirEinIanB, In addition to the more im-
portant ones heretofore noted in the In
telligencer.
Congressman Hullng returned from
Charleston to-day. Col. John Slack left
tonight for the state capital and will
not return before Monday.

ney of Tazewell county to enter
the race for the Congressional
nomination in this District. Mr..

the nomination he would make a

will receive the unanimous sup
