Mr.. Aldrich moved to strike out the cora-

of legal tender notes and substitute the
bond provision offered by the republican
minority of the finance committee. Upon
TINS motion he demanded the yeas and

Before a vote was taken, however, the
subject was discussed by Mr.. Stewart, MIR.
Daniel and Mr.. Mantle
Mr.. Mantle expressed general approval
OF the substitutes for the bond provision,
but announced his apprehension that the
issuance of greenbacks might prove pre-
cedeEt that would sometime arise to plague
the friends of bimetallism. While opposed
to bonds, Mr.. Mantle said he had no pur-
pose to delay action, for he believed the
war to be the hottest and most just ever
waged, and he would not stay the govern

Mr.. Fairbanks Qnd) supported the pro-

RICHMOND, Va, June st now seems
more than probable that the Sd Regiment

1t is understood a telegram was received

1t is believed that Colonel Male of the Sd

given out today. There is certainly some
thing in the wind here among the officers
of the Sd Regiment. They are very reti-

Had FINN With a La,,,lsman.

The sailor man, when in deep water
cannot conceal the feeling of superior
ity with which he regards the untalred
landlubber. Some Of the non-combat-
ants who sailed the Gulf and toe Carib-
bean during the war learned To keep an
eye on the mariners, and others gained
painful experience before they got their
sea legs.
An artist who boarded gri1ny tug
boat clad IN white linen found his coat
covered with coal dust wnen he was a
day from port and decided to wash it.
He filed q bucket with sea water and
fell to work. When he had scrubbed
the garment for twenty minutes he was
satisfied.
Then it occurred to him TO search the
coat pockets He did so. and pulled
out mis- gold watch.
He was perturbsd. The crew laugh
ed and he rebuked them. They lided
their time. Then one of them told
the artist that the proper way to re-
store the coat to its nomal color was
to tie a line to It, neave it overheard
and tow it for few hours. The artist
did so.
When he went below deck hand
hauled the coat aboard. united the line
and hiding the coat made fast ragged
piece of white duck and threw it over
board
When the owner of the coat pulled
in his line he was the angriest man on
the tug. And he didn't know just how
to accept a deck hands glibly made ex-
PLANTATION which was that shark had
seized the coat. until the garment was
restored to him.

When young man asks fathe for his
daughters hand in marriage, if fne father
is wise one, he thinks Of one thing equal
~ as important as the young mans morals,
social and business standing and intelli-
gence. A young man who suffers from ILL
health has no right to marry until his health
Is restored. To do SO is to commit crime
against the human race. While all diseases
may not be directly inherited, the constitu-
tional tendency to acquire them is inher-
tied If man is consumptive, the
chances are that his children will have
weak, undersized lungs, and predisposi-
ton to acquire the same disease

chitis, weak lungs, splitting Of blood or any

A NATIONAL EXPANSIONS


lie Had u Good Excuse for His Change
of Heart.
The gentleman from Chicago was
discussing the question of national ex-
pansion with the gentleman from New
York, and the discussion was waxing
warm.
Sir, said the gentleman from Chic

Philippines; we want the Sandwich Is
lands; we want Cuba; we want Porto
Rico. Yes. sir; the American eagle
screams from the loftiest summit of the
Rocky Mountains for national expan-
sion; the Starssand Stripes that float in
tri-colored glory from the Arctic circle
to the tropic of Cancer in burst OF
blazing splendor unparalleled in the
chronicles of nations wave out to the
wide, wide world their summons to
national expansion; the Fourt Of July
the greatest day in the calendar Of
liberty and the pursuit of happiness. is
bursting wide open in its enthusiastic
wish to take in the islands of the At
lantic and Pacific in universal scheme
of national expansion; from the rock
bound shores Of the stormy Atlantic
to the golden SHORES of the placid Paei-
fic, from the great lakes of the north
to the soft blue waters of the Gulf OF
Mexico arises shout that makes the
welkin ring for national expansion;
from the sun Kissed
Il beg your pardon, said the New
Yorker, but if you win permit me to
interrupt You moment would like
to ask how Democrat Of your restrict
ed views in the past should now be
talking as you do. Why are you so
strongly in favor OF national expansion
while your party is not?
Sir, responded the gentleman from
Chicago, being from New York you
cannot understand it. but. sir, Chicago
has got to have room to spread in.
