NO ADAMLEss EDEN.

But the Californians Will Tempt For
tune in the South seas.
San Francisco, Feb. 26.-The brig
Percy Edwards cleared today for Tahiti,
and on her goes the United Brother
hood of the South Sea Islands. The
brig goes to Tahiti and from that port
will sail wherever the fancy OF those
on board dictates. The expedition was
brought about by the publication in
local paper of story that on st. Johns
island, in the South seas, were num-
Der of dusky women who were pining
for husbands. ALI the men had been
killed in war and the women were
lonely. "A company was organized in
this city to go to the relief of the dusky
damsels, and on board the Edwards are
ninety-seven men, who sigh for the
tropical cline and the easy life OF the
South seas.
It has since developed that the Adam
less Eden story was myth, but the
company organized here determined to
90 somewhere. Each man contributed
800 to common fund. The old
whaling brig Edwards was bought and
rroyisioned and tomorrow the expedl-
tion starts. The men are provided
with agricultural implements and sev-
eral trades are represented.

PASSED BY THE HOUSE.
The General Deficiency Appropriation
Bill.

The General Deficiency Appropriation
Bill.
Washington, Feb. 24.-The house
today passed the general deficiency bill
and began the consideration of the last
of the many bills, that providing for
the naval establishment. A long de-
bate occurred over the propriety of the
appropriation of $1,300,000 for the
Southern Pacific railroad under the
Judgment of the court of claims, but
the house, by a vote of 102 to 1873, re-
fused to strike it out. The members
who favored the appropriation for the
repayment to members Of the last con-
.gress of salaries withheld from them on
account of absence, carried their fight
into the house, but they were beaten,
96 to 1879. Sixteen of the forty-eight
pages of the naval bill were completed.
The attempt of Mr.. Grosvenor to secure
an amendment to retain session em-
ployes on the roll after March 4 to
March Is, when the extra session
would begin, drew from him, when
pressed as to whether he was author
lied to proclaim an extra session"
the good-natured admission that he
was authorized to assume that there
would be an extra session.

A NEST OF THIEVES.
Arrests Made by the Seattle Police Led

Arrests Made by the Seattle Police Led
to . Find.
Seattle. Feb. 26.-The arrests last
night of Mack McAlpin, William
Laurie and Charles Hussey, the latter
a 16-year-old boy, led the police into a
nest of counterfeiters, as well as thieves.
It is not thought that any spurious coin
has been passed, and the specimens
obtained by the police show such work
manship that it seems hardly possible
that much of it could be worked off.
The evidence obtained was found in a
cabin occupied by the three men. The
tools were not discovered, but it is be-
lieved they are secreted somewhere
about the cabin.
In addition to this, the police have
indisputable evidence that the men now
in custody were doing wholesale burg
lary business. Their cabin was we'll
supplied with all kinds of household
goods, cigars, tobacco, ETC., great deal
of which has been identified as belong
ing to other persons.
Early this morning the safe in .
grocery store in a residence part OF the
city was blown open by craftsmen and
$40 taken. The men we're not much
afraid of detection, for the safe, which
is small one, was taken out of the
store into the street, and there blown
open with powder. i is supposed
the work was done by the same men
who recently broke into safe in the
Office of the Oregon improvement Com
pany.

The DAY in the senate.

Washington, Feb. 25.-The senate
made slow progress today on the Indian
appropriation bill, disposing of only one
item of the bill, that directing the
opening of the Uncompahgre Indian
reservation in Utah. 1t involved con-
1ict with the executive branch, which
has steadily resisted opening these
lands ON the ground that they contained
valuable mineral deposits. Villas en-
deavored to have royalty reserved for
the government, but was defeated in
this, and the clause was agreed to after
an all-day debate.
During the day resolution by Mills
was adopted, asking the president for
information as to the death of DR.. Ruiz
at Guanabacoa, Cuba.
In the course Of the debate, Wilson of
Washington, alluded to the presidents
order of yesterday, Withdrawing from
the public domain 21,OO0, 900 acres of
land and constituting various forest re-
serves.
Cannon declared that there was not
the slightest knowledge of the subject
displayed on the part Of the order max
ing the designation, and that land in
Utah had been designated as forest
land when in fact there was no timber
on it larger than jackrabbit bush.
