proposition and made 1t a prudential ne
cessity for protection.
Mr.. Henry of Indiana followed Mr..
Pearson in an argument in favor of an
nexation He began by saying that our
territory was smaller to1ay according TO
our population than il was quarter or
a century ago. 1t has always been held
by American statesmen ,nat Il would nev-
er do for US 10 allow these islands to pass
into the control of any foreign country.
The only question has been In what man
ner they should be controlled.
Under existing circumstances arising out
of our Philippine victory, Mr.. Henry de-
clared annexation was made the only fea-
sible way to settle the long debated prob
lem.
Mr.. Bland of Missouri was allotted
twenty minutes. which he used In argu-
ing against annexation. He declared that
as We are now in the midst of war 1t
was a very inopportune time to discuss
this question. This war was sanctioned
by the American people only on the
ground that il was a war IN behalf OF
the oppressed and not for the acquisition
of territory. and that TO now annex Ha-
wall was simply libel on that deciara-
ton of war
Mr. rraws OF Massachusetts declared
that the right thing to do was to annex
Hawaii; the right time TO do it was now,
and the right way was in the present
reaceabie method. He considered himself
fortunate to be given an opportunity to
cast his vote for IL
Mr. Stewart of New Jersey used the ten
minutes allotted to him to furthering the
cause of annexation. No nation has ever
had any trouble with their colonies until
that nation has first become corrupt. he
said.
Mr.. Smith, delegate from Arizona.
pleaded that the Hawaiian Islands be
saved from the benign influence of ter
ritorial form of government. He declared
that il was unjust to leave the Territories
In cur own western borders uncared for
to cast the eye of greed out on the western
seas to those islands whose chief prod
ucts were sugar trusts. Chinese, Japanese
and HGia-Hula dancers. The purposes
underlying this movement he knew moth
ing about. and should not attempt 10 dis
cover them. In conclusion Mr.. Smith
said that at the proper time he should Of
fer an amendment TO this bill for the pur-
pose OF granting statehood to Arizona.
Now Mexico and Oklahoma. and in the
evert of its failure he would substitute for
it a provision for a home rule plan for
these Territories.
Mr.. Kirkpatrick OF Pennsylvania was the
next speaker. He said that the constitu-
tonal question that had been raised by
opponents Of annexation could not be sus-
tanned. The Constitution declares that
the object of the government Is for the
preservation OF the public peace, and that
any measure necessary for that purpose
was in accord with the Constitution.
Mr.. Mann of Illinois followed Mr.. Kirk
patrick. He declared that he had believ-
ed for years that the annexation OF the
Hawaiian Islands would conduce TO the
strength of this nation.
Mr. Dnsmore asked and obtained unan-
inous consent that the House take re-

WHAT NICOTINE REALLY IS.
A colorless Fluid That Becomea Dark
When Exposed to Air
and Light.

In a communication about tobacco,
in the Scientific American, Prof. John
w. Mallet, of the University of Vir-
ginia, says among other things:
Ignorance of easily ascertainable
scientific facts is, however, common
enough, as often illustrated by the
brown, oily material formed in the
nicotine, though In reality this is mere
" the tar produced by the action of
heat on the woody fibre OF the leaf.
Nicotine when pure is a colorless
fluid OF somewhat oily consistence and
strong. peculiar, penetrating odor. but
It darkens on exposure TO air and light,
becoming first yellow and then brown,
so that IL looks. IN this ddrkened con-
dition, something like the tarry mat
ter which soils a smokers fingers or a
handkerchief through which tobacco
smoke is eXhaled, or is often noticed
as deposited in the stem of a pipe
This tarry deposit has nothing essen
Vial in common with nicotine, and con
tains but traces of this alxaloid, when
any at all. A part, but only n small
part (about one-sevonth Of the expert
ments of AIelsens), of the real nicotine
of tobacco is volatilized without de-
composition; the remainder is burned
and destroyed in the process of smok-
ing.
"The sensational statements occa-
sionally made in regard to arsenic, cop
per, etc, as present in the paper wrap
pers, would be at once seen to be gross
~ improbable II IL were but remem-
bered that the wrapper Is single
cigarette weighs little more than half
a grain, and that in such minute
quantity of thin, delicate white paper
there could be introduced but in
finitesimal amounts OF such foreign
adulterants without the presence be-
coming pereeptible to common obser-
vation by the senses, aside from the
positive scientific evidence that they
arc not present"

LONDON. Sept. 2.--The war Office was
relieved last evening by the receipt Of
a dispatch from Cairo explaining the
sudden interruption Of news from the
Sudan. which had given rise to some
uneasincss as to the movements OF the
Anglo Egyptian column now advancing
toward Omdurman under General Sii
Herbert Kitchener
1t appears that telegraphic communl-
cation was interrupted because the wire
beyond Nasri island, about midway be-
tween Metemmeh and the sixth cata-
ract Of the Nile, had been damaged by a
severe storm.
Shortly after the arrival OF this intel
ligence came the following dispatch
from Nasri island, dated Aug 30. and
forwarded by messenger from the camp
at the front to Nasrl:
There have been glimpses of the en-
emy during the last few days and tho
first skirmish took place today. when
an advance guard OF cavalry located a
large body of the dervishes at suppos-
ed outpost near Kerreri about eight
miles north Of Omdurman
The enemy showed a disposition TO
fight beating war drums and displaying
battle bunting. The Montmorency troop
emptled a few dervish saddles and
three gunboats steamed up the river in
front of the town and shelled the der
Wish positions. The enemy's loss could
not be ascertained as the dervishes
were in a hollow, but fleeing troops
could be distinctly seen.
THE army is moving slowly. Yester-
day it advanced four miles In close for

HEADS OF GREAT BRIToNs.
Gladstone Had Larger Uranium
Than Beaconsaeid, bright
or Russell.

Mr.. Gladstone's head was, il is we'll
known, OF exceptional size. The story
he told at Lord Ripon's once about the
man who could not get a hat large
enough till at last the halter called in
desperation for an Aberdeen hat may
well enough have been his own ex-
perience, says the London Daily News.
The compliment to Aberdeen was, no
doubt, relished in the granite city. DIR.
Collins once gave to the world the re-
suit of a special study in hats, in the
course of which IL was mentioned that
Mr.. Gladstone's rumber in hats was
7ss. The hatters' number is arrived
at by taking the mean of the length
and breadth. Thus a hat 7Hsx6h is a
No. hat, which is the average English
size. Lord Beaconsfeld's hat was this
size, John Bright's 71s, Lord John Rus
sells ~, all smaller than Mr.. Glad
stones. But the Gladstone hat was
exceeded in size by that Of DR.. Chal-
mers' ~, and Joseph Hume's was en-
phatically abnormal--sh. DR.. Collins
had 1926 hats measured at a meeting Of
Convocation of London university, and
found that between 40 and ~ per cent.
were above the British average, No. T /;
between 25 and 26 per cent. were just
the average size, and "a per cent. were
under the average.

RENT FLOWERS FOR HOUSES.
Hothouse Proprietors suffer Loss Ia
business Through the Advent
of summer Months.

This is the season Of the year when
keepers of hothouse flowers, who
thrive in winter, are practically with
out employment. There are more
than 20 concerns in Chicago that make
a business of renting potted plants,
palms and other interior decorations
TO restaurants, cafes, saloons, and TO
families. These plants are changed
as often as wanted. One day there
may be one OF the waving pampas
plumes, and In the same place the day
following may appear blooming ger
anium. The uninitiated would imag-
inc that the owner Of the room wns
also proprietor CT a hsthouse. when he
isn't anything of the sort. These
plants may be rented for one dollar
per month apiece, says the Chicago
Times-Herald.
In summer they are taken out and
fresh Rowers, born OF rain and sun
shine, placed in their stead. Chica-
gonas do not like the looks of hothouse
flowers when the weather is warm and
natural blossoms are cheap. Bushes
Of fresh honeysuokles grown wild In
the mountains of Kentucky and Ten
nessee may now be seen in many
places. Violets are coming in in abuu-
dance. There may occasionally be
found magnolia blossoms, for they are
plentiful on the bayous of the south
this season. Then there are the native
roses and daffodils and dandelions that
give fragrance and take the room Of
the potted plants, which do very well
In winter, but look out Of place when
the air is soft and balmy and the trees
are clothed IN green.
