THE TORRENT o. SENATOR
IAL TALK.

The following criticism is from the
Philadelphia Tins There is great deal
of truth in it. We want action now, not
words. Our esteemed contemporary says:
We have been at war with Spain for a
full month; Commodore Dewey has de-
stroyed the Spanish fleet at Manila; nearly
100000 troops have been enlisted and par
TALLY drilled and 5000 new recruits have
been called for; the government is strain
ing every nerve to increase its effective
proper state of defense; the war eXpendi
lures exceed million dollars per day and
the Senate is still indulging in long
speeches on the war revenue bill, and as
it has no rule by which debate may be
shut off there is danger that the war will
end for lack of means to prosecute it be-
fore the Senatorial oratory can be choked
off.
The House, composed of four times as
many members as the Senate, passed a war
revenue bill in week or Whereabouts.
The Senate committee on finance took
plenty of time in its consideration to con-
struct a new bill out of it, and now the
flood gates of Senatorial oratory have been
opened to their full capacity, and a very
torrent of talk mostly without particular
pertinence to the subject of raising war
revenues, is being poured forth. One
would think that in the present eXigency
the Senate would be anxious to initiate the
pass the bill, reserving the speech making
for some other measure upon which
prompt action was not imperative, but it
is evident that Senators consider nothing
in this wide universe of greater Importance
than Senatorial speeches.
As the Senate cannot be abolished by
constitutional methods except by its own
consent the only way it can be made an
acting instead of talking body will be
by the substitution of Senators who will
act for a lot of the present Senators who
will do nothing but talk In times of
peace, when no great crisis confronts the
country, talking Senate, while Il good
deal of nuisance, does not constitute a
menace to the safety of the American gov
eminent, but in time Of war like the
present safety lies only in Senate that
can be depended on to act when necessary,
takers will have to be retired

Senator Daniels made one of the strong
est speeches yet made against an issue of
bonds, and in favor of paying the expenses
of the war as we go along, rather than
saddling them upon posterity. Replying
to the contention that the issue of bonds
proposed was intended for effect upon
Spain, Senator Daniels said that if the de,
sired effect could be assured he was ready
to vote to issue the bonds But, he i'm
pressively continued, ''if Spain was not
convinced at Manila that this country was
in earnest in this war, then Sampson and
Schley and Miles and their licutenants
have some arguments to submit to her
that will prove to be even more assured
vehicles of conviction than any issue of
bonds could be-" He declared the stamp
tax to be the most odious and pestiferous
tax invented by man.

THE BREATH OF ARBUTus.

What is it in the summer air tonight
That brings me dreams of dear days long ago
And memories of hearts that have for years
Been colder than the Alps eternal snowa
The faint breath of arbutus on the air,
Bring sadly. back those dear dead days
And one who told me was fair.
We stood aluid the towers, dewy, sweet,
Ny hero in his coat of loyal blue.
He kissed my tears away and said: Farewell!
My country needs me, dear, more than do
you
There came day. The sun refused to shine.
High heaven tried to wash away the stain.
Night spread her mantle gently DER the field
The south wind moaned a requiem for the
Slain.
Back in corner Of the garrett dark
There stands an oaken chest, and buried deep
Within it lies package worn and old,
But when tits ashes still my heart will keep
In sacred memory the love that gave
To me the sweet arbutus, faded, dead,
Brr gave to God and country all he had
And in the southland found narrow bed.
IT'S this the south wind watts to me tonight
Fond mem'ry is the harp Ger which she
plays
The gentle breath Of sweet arbutus flowers
And tender thoug ats of unforgotten days.

Free Shows In Paris.

The theaters of Paris have popular
representations on certain days, when
the seats cost only quarter or half
the usual price. There are also days
like the national holiday (July 10)
when most of the tbeaters give gratu-
itous spectacles. These occasions are
characterized only by the best pieces,
and actors dispute among themselves for
the advantage of playing before this
special public. No other audience is
more grateful or more impressionable.
They rarely have the pleasure of being
present at the play. They are not blases,
nor are they familiar with the wings.
Having gained their places by long
waiting at the door, they occupy them
as conquests; they listen in silence, APP
plaud with enthusiasm, weep all to-
kether, the prey of simple and conta-
Hious emotion. x Outlook.

TOlLERS OF THE AIR.
How the Work on a Suspension Bridge Ii
Done.


Done.
The workmen on the cables follow
closely after the builders of the iron
roadway. These men are engaged in
more perilous employment, if anything,
than the former. They climb nimbly
up to the very summit of the huge tow
ers, and then without fiinching proceed
to descend the inclined cables. 1t makes
the spectators below tremble for them,
so dangerous is the descent, but the
workmen have no fear, else they would
be untitled for the duty required Of
them. After sliding down the cable a
dozen feet, they stop and turn around
ard face the towers. The men working
the derrick slowly swing out to them
the end of q cable about three inches in
diameter. Another man carries out to
them by me.ns Of small hand pulley
and rope redhot band of steel, which
the cable workers seize with their
pinchers and clasp around the large cable
on which they are resting. Then while
the steel is still hot and malleable, tina
small cable, with it's end secured in a
thick bolt of steel, is brought into posi-.
tion, and the end welded into the red
hot steel band encircling the main ca
BILE. The workmen pound and forge
away, hammering, twisting and bend
ing the metal before it cools off. The
welding must be done rapidly, and the
workmen have no time to stop and think
of the dangerous position in which they
are placed. Probably the only support
they have comes from their legs, which
they wind tightly around the cable, as
they swing their arms and upper part
Of the body with violent exertion.
When this cable is forged into its
place, the workmen take a few moments
Of rest and then slide down to the next
joint, where the same operation is re-
peated- Gable after cable is attached in
this way until there is a regular tangle
of steel work and dangling cables, look
ing for all the world like spider's web.
But there is order in this colossal spider
web such as never existed in the home
of the insect that weaves the webs in
our homes and woods. Gradually one
part of the bridge after another is fin
ished, and when the ''false work. of
scaffoids is removed the structure stands
out in ala the beauty of it's finished state.
The bridge builders must not only be
skilled in their work, but they must
have the hardihood and daring of the
sailor, for most of their work is per-
formed at an altitude higher than the
topmast OF any sailing vessel. They la.
Dor in all kinds of weather-when the
sun is pouring down its torrid rays in
midsummer CT when the mercury regis.
tiers zero in winter. -
To them their dizzy height is no more
than the 10 or 30 feet are to the ordi.
nary carpenter or house painter. They
seldom use ladders. They would be ecu
stantly in the way. If they want tt,
reach higher framework, they climb
nimbly up the steel works or jump
lightly across from one truss to another.
A jump of three feet from girder to
girder is commonplace occurrence to
them.-George E. Walsh in Cooley q
Magazine.
