COMFORT FOR THE SERVANT.

COMFORT FOR THE SERVANT.
While it behooves a careful mistress
to know something Of the character of
the company which may be received in
her kitchen, it seems a needless tyranny
to say that none shall enter it. 1t is the
only place where the Woodworking
woman can proffer little hospitality
and if the girl is of the right Sort the
employer loses nothing by little con-
cession in this regard. 1t often pays
to assist the maid in converting her
kitchen at the end of the day into a
comfortable place in which to spend the
evening. One woman who has this
friendliness for her maid of all work,
has put cheerful red shades at the win
dow, keeps a couple of cheap rugs under
the wash tubs, whence they can be
taken out after the dinner dishes are
put away, has provided a hanging lamp
over the table which stands in the
centre of the room, and a turkey-red
cloth that may cover it's enamel-cloth
day cover Two cane-seated rockers,
whose cushions have a washable slip,
add an air Of comfort to the place; and
it is her report that she has always
found this little effort to make the
place attractive appreciated. OF course,
late hours or indiScriminate callings are
not to be encouraged. To permit, how
ever, a Moderate amount of receiving,
under certain reasonable restrictions,
seems not only kind and considerate, but
polite as we'll

DEBATE AHEAD.
Matters In Congress Will Pro-
videsMaterial For Much Talk.
Senate and House Have Appropriation
Bills on Hand-Attempt to Drag in
Cuban Affairs Likely

Washington, Feb 2O.-The diplomatic
and consular and the military academy
appropriation bills will be considered
and passed by the senate during the
week There viii be more or less de-
bate in executive session of the
Hawaiian annexation treaty, and
speeches will be made on the claim Of
Mr.. Corbett to a seat in the, senate on
the appointment of the governor Of
Oregon. The Corbett matter will not
be pressed except to the end of having
the speeches so far disposed of as to
make sure of getting a vote at the time
fixed a week from tomorrow. The eX-
pectation is that the bill making appro
priations for the consular and diplo-
matte service will be made the basis for
considerable debate.
1t is understood to be Senator Aliens
intention to make an effort to secure
the Incorporation in the bill, as an
amendment, of his provision for the rec
ognition of Cuban belligerency, and If
he should make this effort, the result
might be a general discussion Of the
Cuban question. While, however, this
is among the possibilities it does not at
this time appear probable, for the SEN
ate Is not now in a mood for the opening
of this question pending the Maine in
Vestigation, so that if it should be taken
up this week, there would have to be
quite a radical change in sentiment
There are some senators, however, who
are desirous of having the subject de-
bated and they may force the issue.
AS Mr.. Aliens amendment was ad-
versely reported from the committee on
foreign relations, Senator Hale will raise
point of order against it. This, the
vice president will sustain, and Mr.
Allen will, of course, appeal There will
be stubborn opposition to such an
amendment if offered, and the contest
may be an animated one if Mr.. Allen
persists in his purpose. Independently Of
the Cuban amendment, the diplomatic
bill is likely to cause debate on other
questions. 1t seldom gets through the
senate without being made the basis Of
more or less general debate on the coun-
try's foreign policy.
The advisability of amending this ap-
preparation bill with a provision for the
annexation of Hawaii, which was at one
time conside dered by some of the support
ers of the Hawaiian treaty, appears to
have been abandoned. The treaty will,
however, receive independent attention
during the week, if the appropriation
bills and the Corbett case do not crowd

IN THE HOUSE.


Washington, Feb. 2O.-Unless the
Cuban question or some phase of the
Maine disaster should come before the
house this week, the time, with the eX-
ception of tomorrow, which, under an
arrangement made last week. will be
given up to the consideration of private
bills, will be devoted to the sundry civil
appropriation bill
This bill will be reported to the house
tomorrow 1t Is a very voluminous
measure, containing all the odds and
ends of appropriations, as its name in
dicates, and is usually productive of
more protracted contests than any other
appropriation till. 1t is understood that
information regarding the situation in
Cuban asked for last week by the house,
has been prepared by the state depart
ment and is ready for transmittal.
Some of the consular reports bearing
on the situation have been edited in
some places, but it is said that the situa-
tion as presented probably will call for
some action.
Inview of the condition Of public SEN
timent, pending the result of the Off
cial investigation into the cause Of the
disaster to the Maine, it is considered
probable that the answer Of the state
department will be withheld for several
days. In the face of the catastrophe
which has occurred, the members of the
house who have usually rushed to the
fore on occasion of any sensational de-
veopment either in foreign or domestic
affairs, were ominously silent last week.
The extreme gravity Of the situation,
and the far-reaching consequences of
hasty or ill-considered action, tended to
disarm them, but at any time during
the consideration of the appropriation
bill, where the widest latitude in debate
is allowed stirring debate involving
the recent sensational events in connec-
ton with the explosion of the Maine, the
recall of the Spanish minister and the
latest developments in Cuba, may be
precipitated.
But those in authority, by keeping the
appropriation bill in the right of way,
can easily prevent actual action by the
house if they so desire, and the pre-
vailing opinion of the conservative lead
ers on both sides is that action and agi-
tation are out Of place until all the facts
upon which calm judgment can be pre-
dicated are necessary
