And there is now in the treasury
Sill, 100000 surplus, excluding the
500, 1000, 900 gresnback reserve fund.
Altogether we have under the senate
plan S453, ,OOO,OO of additional revenue,
including the money in the treasury, for
carrying on the war.
The House bill depends mostly on
bonds to raise money for the war and
provides only S90,O00,000 additional
revenue, which will not much more
than cover deficiencies on peace basis
under the Dingley law, which aggregates
$4,000, 900 for ten months and third
of the fiscal year. In addition the House
bill authorizes the issue of 100000, 900
certificates of Indebtedness.
The whole question will be taken up
in the Senate this week. There is no
disposition on the part of any senator,
to embarrass the administration as to a
plentiful supply of money.

The proposed trepanning of the
skull of Alexander Karst, the Cornell
student now suspected of arson and
possibly even graver crime, will be
for the avowed purpose of attempting
to "restore his mental and moral fac
ulties, and it opens a wide field tor
investigation for the medical and
metaphysical experts, as we'll as a
broad beam of hope for criminals.
Karst is said to have had his skull
fractured at one time in his life and
to be subject to a certain amount of
mental eccentricity on account of it.
If the operation relieves him OF this
incubus in a way that the law can
take cognizance of, a previously frac-
tured skull may become a frequent
defense in criminal trials.

Is A FLORAL PARADISE.
Beautiful Orchids and Lilies of the
Philippine Archipelago.

Nature has made the Philippine ISL
ands a floral paradise There are
over thirty varieties Of orchids in the
forests, and dozens OF lilies Of nam
moth proportions, that are never seen
outside Of the tropics. The Malapo is
the largest It's leaves are often six
feet long and two feet wide, while its
stems are three inches in diameter. 1t
is in bloom FIVE months in the year,
and its blossoms are as large as a peck
measure. Carnations grow in phe-
nomenal variety all over the rural dis
tricts, and frequently cover an acre or
more, while gerauiums, whose lux
uriance excites EXPLANATIONS of de-
light from nearly every beholder for
the first time, grow like trees and
great clumps of bushes. Geraniums
that have grown up the trunks and
along the shrub of immense forest
trees are to be seen frequently. The
lazy, Indifferent natives seldom touch
them, and they grow on and on for
years. Along the rural roads there
are everywhere wild poppies of the
most delicate yellow flowers and large
stems.
From the trees in the forest there
are hundreds of vines and parasites of
the most brilliant blossoms, aud in
the spring season the air all over the
several islands is for a time fairly
heavy with floral fragrance.
Neither the Tagals nor the Bocals
have any taste for the superb flora OF
the Philippines, and one seldom sees
any sort of flower or vine cultivated
at the home of native.
The Philippines deserves to be call
ed the Thousand Islands Of the Orient,
for there are not less than I,2IS ISL
ands large and small, but only 20 OF
them are of fairly good size. The area
OF the whole group is 1873, 600 square
miles and 90, 900 square miles of these
comprise the 20 principal islands.
The numerous rivers form natural,
self maintaining highways, over which
loads can be carried to the foot OF the
mountains. Here the cocoa palm
hourishes, a tree that not only sup
plies the natives with meat and drink,
but with material for building and
domestic utensils. The luxuriant
bamboo tree is the islander unfailiug
resource. 1t not only excels in ma
jestic beauty, but is converted into
all kinds of utensils.

a cell awaiting his removal on requi-

Col. Porterfeld's daughter who is

the meeting, aud it was through her
efforts that it was brought about. The

urgent request of Mr.. Mackey, prom

Judge Mackey said he would begin

Mackey, he said, but he had done so
upon the advice of friends and at the
request OF his family, who feel the
matter keenly. He came here with a
view to taking his daughter home
with him until the trouble as to the
previous marriage had been settled,
he said, but could not say whether
she would be willing to go with him

international S. S. Lesson for Oct. 2

Reformation Under Asa. Chron.
IA: 2-T2 Read chapters IA, IS, 10.
Golden Text-"Help us, o Lord
our God; for we rest on Thee 2
Chron. IA: II.
There was war between Asa, the
third king of Judah, and Baasba, the
third king of Israel, all their days.
Under previous kings in single bat
tie, Israel lost 500, 900 men, and Ju-
dab prevailed because they relied up
on the Lord God of their fathers.
And Asa did that which was good
and right in the eyes of the Lord his
God For he took away the affairs of
the strange gods, and the high places,
and brake down the images, and cut
down the groves. And commanded
Judah to seek the Lord God of their
fathers, and do the law and the COM
mandments. The land had rest, and
he had no war in those years, because
the Lord had given him rest. He
had an army of $50, 600 men, and
there came against him Zerah, the
Ethiopian, with 1000, 600 soldiers,
and Asa cried unto the Lord his God,
ut is nothing for Thee to help,
whether with many, or with them
that have no power; help us, 0 Lord
our God, for we rest on Thee, and in
Thy name we go against this multi
tude o Lord, Thou art our God; let
not man prevail against Thee" So
the Lord smote the Philippians before
Asa aud they were destroyed
before the Lord.
Then the Spirit of God said to Asa,
THE Lord is with you, while ye be
with Him; and if ye seek Him, He
will be found OF you; but if We forsake
Him, He will forsake you" And
Asa took courage, and put away
abominable idols out of all the land,
and they entered into a covenant to
seek the Lord God of their fathers
with all their soul. And He was
found of them, and the Lord gave
them rest from their enemies.
Then Baasha, king of Israel, came
against him, and Asa relied on Ben
hadad, king of Syria, instead of the
Lord; and Hanani, the prophet, re-
proved him, saying, were not the
Philippians huge host? yea, because
thou ridst dely on the Lord, He de-
livered them into thine hand. For
the eyes of the Lord run to and fro
throughout the whole earth to shew
Himself strong in the behalf OF them
whose heart is perfect before Him.
Herein thou hast done foolishly:
therefore from henceforth thou shalt
have wars.
Then Asa was angry with the
Aprophet and put him in prison, and
Impressed some of the people. And
"a the 39th year of his reign, he had
gout in his feet, and sought not the
8J.ord, but the physicians, and after
] two years he died
They that seek the Lord shall not
want any good thing" "Our help
