remain indoors. Both the men killed
in the riot were Christians and their
companions have sworn to avenge
them. 1t is feared there will be further

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand tweny. four hours;
sediment or settling indicates an un.
healthy condition of the kidneys. When
urine stains linen it is positive evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire
to urinate or pain in the back, is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out of order.

Thoughts.

Thoughts are certainly able to spread
themselves without the aid of looks or
language. Invisible seed that floats from
the parent plant can root itself wher-
ever it settles. and thoughts must have
some medium through which they sail
till they reach minds that can take them
in, and there they strike root, and whole
crops of the same sort come up just as
if they were indigenous and naturally
belonging to their entertainers This is
even more true in great matters than in
small. Jean Ingelow.

The pension appropriation bill will
be called up Monday, and as soon as it

it is not expected to be prolonged in

pected that the Indian appropria-

which was begun Saturday, will be
completed Monday. The only item in
the bill which is likely to cause much
of contest is that providing for the
leasing of the Gilsonite beds of the Un-
compahgre reservation in Utah. This
provision was beaten in the last Indian
bill and will be stubbornly contested
now. The district bill will probably
consume the remainder of the week,

that of Lees being assassinated at Ha-

the nomination of Attorney General

When the doors were closed the
Hawaiian treaty was laid aside in or

objection to immediate action and the
nomination went over until another
