Washington, May Interest in the
senate this week is in the war revenue
bill which is expected to reach that
body with the beginning of the week
1t will be referred at once to the COM
mittee on finance and probably will be
reported back Wednesday or Thurs
day.
a meeting Of the finance committee
| has been called for Monday with the
view on the part of the Republican
members of having the consideration
of the bill in committee begun in
! formally. They have even intimated
! that they may ask that a vote be taken
! at this meeting with the view of re-
! porting the bill as soon as it is re-
! ferred.
THREE FEATURES.
| The Democratic members of the
committee will oppose this programme,
as they desire opportunity to have
various amendments considered. 1t is
now. believed that they will offer a
provision for q tax on all producing in
dustries, another for an inheritance
tax. and a third for non-interest bear
ing treasury notes. 1t is also probable
that an amendment will be suggested
for the issuance of 500, 900, 900 in green
backs to take the place of those out
standing which are supposed to have
been destroyed. They viii seek to have
the bond provision of the bill elimin-
ated entirely on the plea that the time
has not yet arrived for bond issue.
DISSATISFIED SENATORS.
There is a possibility that the Re-
publican members of the committee
may amend the bond provision, as
there is more or less dissatisfaction
with it among Republican senators.
One of the changes suggested is a re-
duction of the amount of bonds. When
the bill reaches the senate the opposi-
ton will insist upon having time for
the various factions to state the
reasons for their opposition and it is
now predicted that two weeks will be
required for debate. While they will
insist upon the elimination of the bond
feature they will all state that they
will vote for bonds later if the war
should be prolonged sufficiently to re-
quire their issuance.
The programme of the senate until
the revenue bill is reported, is uncer-
tain. The postoffice appropriation
bill probably will be reported and
passed and the omnibus claims bill will
be taken up.
HOUSE FORECAST.
There is no business of great import
ance to come before the house during
the week unless the appropriations
committee brings in an emergency war
appropriation measure. It was the in
tention of Chairman Cannon to make
the emergency appropriations a part
of the general deficiency, but as that
bill might be delayed some time he
may bring in a separate measure.
There are also number of con-
ference reports to be disposed of, and
these may occupy the time of the house
during the week. Special appropria-
tons bill are still in conference, but
are expected during the week
The Alaska land bill remains to be dis
posed of, and there are a number of
minor matters to be taken under con-

BOMB EXPLODED
 UNDER A HOUSE Attempt to Kill a New Jersey Councilman. WORK OF POLITICAL ENEMIES DYNAMITE PLACED IN THE SLEEPING MANS ABODE. The Building Wrecked by the Force of the Explosion, but the In- mates of the Place Escape
 Injury.
WORK OF POLITICAL ENEMIES
DYNAMITE PLACED IN THE SLEEPING MANS ABODE.
Special. Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, Dec. .2.-An Atlantic City, N. J., special to the Herald says: Under the ehouse of Councilman at-large Edward Johnson in Brigantine, near here, dynamite bomb was exploded at Il o'clock last night, partially wrecking the building.
 There is no doubt it was the inten- ton of the perpetrators of the outrage to kill MT. Johnson. Threats. against his life had been heard, owing to the part he had taken in the recent politi- cal struggle in Brigantine. MT. John son by his vote holds the balance of power between the factions in the Brigantine City Council.
 Johnson retired at his usual time last night, and was sleeping soundly when about an hour before midnight he was awakened by a loud explosion. The house rocked as though shaken by an earthquake. and there was a crash of breaking glass and falling timbers. fol- lc~-ed by darkness and silence. Nobody in the house was hurt.
 After a prolonged search the bomb that caused the havoc was found. It was shattered piece of lead pipe. that had evidently been filled with dyna- mite. The crime apparently was com mitted by some one familiar with the premises, as the bomb had been placed directly under Johnson'S bedroom win dow. Johnson is certain the outrage was committed by political enemies.

WHEN TO EAT DINNER.

Hardworking men, especially in the learned professions, are often puzzled as right diet to be taken at their meals.> The much graver question of stimulants also interests them personally. The fear of midday meal is very d common innhonn among 1T an to interfere with inspiration, especially if any form of alcohol be taken. Tea. very popular with scholars, is iess oD- jectionable as to its immediate effects. but it Is very dangerous to digestion. es- pecially among scholars, who, like work, women, nearly always take too much and prefer their tea to be strong, red as blood" as Garrick used to say. The chief danger in taking too light midday meal is that the student is at his worst, rhy- sically, just before dinner time Hence dinner Is rendered fresh source Of dys- pepsia, and if he strolls about before the evening meal he is apt to take cold.
 The special stimulants of great men have been recorded, in their memoirs. One of the most remarkable records Of tnls kind has come to light in Aubrey's Brief Lives" founded on notes taken by the author in the middle of the seventeenth century. Few drinks are mores distruSted among brainworkers in these days than ale, but Prynne seems to have thought otherwise He was voluminous writer, and his pamphlets lost him his ears and endangered his head. Aubrey informs us 1laSrs 1Prynnes1 man was was to bring him a roll and pot of ale to refocilate his wasted spirits; so he studied and drank and munched some bread, ana tnlS nlalHldiHeu him till night; and then he made a good supper. Now. he did we'll not to. dine. which breaks off ones fancy, which will not presently be regained."
 The danger of a priori reasoning may be seen from the above quotation. Those who have forgotten about Prynne would take him from this note of his diet to be a Bohemian of the well-known old-fash- toned type; yet he was stern, uncom- promising puritan. who suffered mutila- ton and the pillory, and had violent and very un-Boheman prejudice against the stage. The diet does not then proclaim the man. We doubt. however, If the seri- ous student of the end of the. nineteenth century would do well to "refocillate his wasted spirits by drinking pot of ale every three hours. Pyrnne was perhaps wise not to dine, which meant to lunch in those days, and implied a very heavy meal. But the munching of rolls all gay and the good supper were questionable. His style was very caustic: perhaps be- cause of the misrule of Charles I, but possibly. also. through dyspepsia, which also had so disastrous an Influence on the literary temper of Thomas Carlyle.-BrIt- iSh Medical Journal

FORMATION OF CANYONS.

The secret of the grea- denudation and of the wonderful achievement of the Colorado in carving out of rock series of canyons about 800 miles long. and, in one place at least, more than a mile deep, with a multitude of tributary chasms and gorges, is very simple when you know it. says Harper's. The old lake bed slowly rose. At first the Colorado River and it's trlputaries, or some nameleSs monstrous ancestor of these, sweeping over the slowly risl. surfaces, planed them down in most relentless fashion, and then began wearing out broad, shallow stream beds. But then the country rose more rapidly, and the water had to cut deeper channels in the rocks in order to get out and away to sea.
 Owing in part to the wear of the water itself, but more to the ceaseless bombardment of the suspended sand which it bore from the up country, or picked up as 1t went along, and to the thump of pebbles and powders which it swept on in flood time, the river kept cut ting down as the strata rose, until finally, when what was left of our inland sea bot tom got thrust up so that, towering far above it's erstwhile rocky shores, 1t had to be called nlateau, the Colorado and its auxiliaries found themselves at the bottom of a series of canyons and gorges, where they are to-day.
