The Nicaragua Canal Bill Principal Sub
iact Before Upper House.


Washington. Dec. 14.-The Nicaragua
canal bill held it's place as the principal
subject before the Senate again today.
Speeches We're made by Messrs. Harris,
Money, Stewart and Morgan. Mr..
Money urged the postponement of the
question in order to permit an oppor-
tunity for negotiations with Great
Britain for a modification of the Clay
ton Bulwer treaty, and Mr.. Morgan
antagonized the postponement. An
agreement was reached to take a vote
on the Turpie amendment tomor-
row. Other questions before the Sen
ate We're the governments pension
policy and bill regarding the registry
Of foreign-bUilt vessels wrecked on
the American coast.
The Senate opened the day with a
protest upon the part of Mr.. Gallinger
of New Hampshire chairman Of the
committee on pensions, against the
practive of senators of bringing pension
bills in cases pending in the pension
office. He said the committee would
not consider such bills. and that it was
useless to present them. Notwithstand-
ing that Illinois had furnished 60 900
more soldiers than Indiana, the pension
roll for Indiana exceeded that of Hi
nois by 81 500, 900. He accounted for
this fact on the ground that Indiana is
a pivotal state politically saying that
it was notorious that the commissioner
Of pensions, who was an eXUnion SOL
der. had granted pensions to almost
every applicant in political districts
which are close. He did not contend
that the republican party was alone to
blame, but he knew that men of all

given. The prisoner stepped up to the
officer and, without warning, struck the
deputy across the mouth with a sharp
knife which he had previously con-
cealed. Herbs was quickly overpow-
cred. He said that he had settled a

having placed him in solitary on
several occasions. 1t is claimed that

special to rhe. Age-Herald.


 Bessemer, Feb. 25.-The report that MT. F. B. Nichols had resigned the vice presi- dency and general managership of the Howard-Harrison Iron company is incor- rect. About two weeks ago and at the time of the meeting of the stockholders in St. Louis, the Age-Herald mentioned this probable change in the office of the com pany, but the report today was found to be without authority from any responsible source.
 The meeting referred to resulted in the reelection of John w. Harrison, president; George K. Hoblitzelle, second vice-presi- dent and Louis Hoster, secretary, leaving the office of vice-president and general manager open. MT. Nichols has occupied this position for the past three years and when the election of officers took place he was in New York city, having just then landed from Liverpool.
 Several days will elapse before it is known whether he will resume his former situation or have a successor.

Paine's celery compound has observed how soon it regulates the bowels and clears the whites of the eyes of that yellow jaun- diced look Another witness of its invig- orating capacity that may escape the notice of persons not accustomed to ordinarily employing this test is it's effect on the pulse that was before uncertain, futtering and feeble.
 The great susceptibility of woman to worry is heightened by the fact that she leads a more confined, monotonous life, narrowed down to the four walls of home the greater part of the day Paine's cel- cry compound is just what such nervous depressed persons need to restore their nerves to energy and to lift them out of their eonstipated, dyspeptic habit of body.
 Paine's celery compound counteracts the exhausting strain of work by it's strong inducement to the delicate tissues to take more food. 1t plainly induces the nerves and brain to feed themselves more liberally and has thus saved countless men and women from chronic neuralgia, rheuma- tism sleeplessness and failing mental power
 No remedy has been discovered so rich in fiesh-forming and energy producing con- stituents as Paines celery compound.
