in the Senate and Speaker Reed In the House. As the session lasts only three months, or until March 1, unusual activity will be necessary in order to accomplish the work that has been mapped out. The in- coming of senators, representatives and others concerned in the opening of Congress reached high-tide today, and with the majority of the mem bers already on hand the work of the coming session is receiving a great deal of consideration in quiet conferences ln parlors and hotel Hobbies. By general consent cur rency-reform and general legislation for the new possessions is to be al- lowed to go over until the next ses- sion. but there still remains plenty of matters to keep the short session busily engaged until March 4. The ratifcatlo of the treaty of peace will of course be the mostimportant work 0: the Senate, and in the way of general legislation to receive att tention in both houses there will be the measures affecting the army re organization, the fertilization bill the naval bill, the question of the form of government for the Hawaii an Islands, a national quaran tine measure and quite likely the meas ure providing for the construction of the Nicaraguan Canal.
 AS regards the questions involved in the reconstruction of the form o government in Porto Rico, Cuba and the Philippines, Congress ap- pears to have no very clear ideas al present, and it is chiefly for this reason that legislation in this direc tion will probably go over to tht next session in order that the vari- ous commissions now at work ma J have time to complete their labors and prepare their reports. Con corning important matters of legis lation nearer at home the views ot leading members of both houses and of both political parties, as express. ed h interviews since their arriva in Washington, show an unusually wide divergence of oplnion.

NEGOTIATING FOR THE PURCHASE OF THE
 CAROLINE ISLANDS
THE PEACE PROCEEDINGS
Spaniards Want to Drive a Good Bargain Before Proceeding
 Further.

Paris, Dec. 3 3- There was no joint session of the peace commission to day. The Americans had three hours meeting today. The report from Berlin that Germany is nego
 tia ting for the purchase of the Car oline Islands is confirmed from sev- eral quarters, although Count Mon Munster burg, German am
 bassador here, informed the ceres
 pondent of the Associated Press that he knew nothing at all about the matter The American com mlssloners are inclined to believe the report, aud it is looked upon as explaining the reluctance of the Spaniards to give the Americans an answer in regard to the Caroline Islands, and the latest development confirm the report that the Span- iards have been instructed not to yield on these points until they have made a good bargain.

MAY BE ERECTED HERE,
A Move Being Made to Build State
 Orphans Home in Pine Bluff.


 Rev ]. R. Ca on returned from Clarendon Friday afternoon where he went to attend the Methodist conference that is being held in that city, He had very important ob- lect in view when he left this city, and that was to interest the Metho- dists in building a State orphans home in Pine Bluff. He said the home would be erected here if the people of Pine Bluff would take the proper interest in it. With a little push, determination and a small subscription from Pine Bluff, it may secure the home.

Peculiar poisons.
Generated In the Human
 Body.
The Rssuit Of Impssfsot Digestion
 of Food.

Every living thing, plant or anil nal. contains within itself the germs of certain decay and death.
 In the human body these germs of disease and death (cailed by scientists Ptomaines), are usually the result of imperfect digestion of food; the result of indigestion or dyspepsia. The stomach, from abuse, weak ness, does not promptly and thor oughly digest the food. The result is keavy, sodden mass which fer ments (the first process of decay) poisoning the blood, making it thin, weak and lacking In red corpuscles; poisoning the brain causing head aches and pain in the eyes. Bad digestion irritates the heart, causing palpitation and finally bringing on disease of this very inn portant organ.
 Poor digestion poisons the kidneys, causing Bright's disease and dia- betes.
 And this is so because every organ, every nerve depends upon the ston- ach alone for nourishment and re. newal, and weak digestion shows itself not only In loss Of appetite and flesh, but In weak nerves and mud fy complexion.
 The great English scientist, Hux- ley, said the best start in life Is a sound stomach. Weak stomachs fail to digest food properly, because they lack the proper quantity of di- gestive acids lactic and hydrochlor- l ic) and peptogeDic products the most sensible remedy in all cases of l indigestion, Is to take after each
 meal, one or twoof Stuart's Dyspep- sia Tablets, because they supply in a pleasant harmless form all the ele- ments that weak stomachs lack.
 The regular use of Stuart's Dys-
 pepsia Tablets will cure every form of stomach trouble except cancer of
 the stomach.
 1 They increase flesh, insure pure blood, strong nerves, bright eye
 and clear complexion, because all
 these result only from wholesome fooa well digested.
 l Nearly all druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at 50 cents, full
 sized packages or by mail by enclos ing price to Stuart Co.,, Marshall,
 Mich. but ask your druggist first. l 4 little book on stomach diseases ] mailed free. Address X. A. Stuart Co.,. Marshall, Mich.

RUBBER -NEGKIAG' PASSED
As the Ladies are Complying With
 Request to Remove Their Hats.

Pine Bluff theater goers will have no further cause for complaint of "Oh those high hass," etc., for Man aqer Senvard is doing all in his pow CT to make everything comfortable for the visitors at his play house, and has so far been successful. He placed the following sign up on the curtain and gave same notice on the programs: Ladies, Pleasei Remove Your Hats. We are very glad to chronicle the fact that almost all the ladies are willingly complying with the above notice, and it is being greatly appreciated by the manager and lthe opera house patrons.
 Manager Senyard in his endeavor to have the ladies remove their hats has been careful not to give offense, but he hopes they will appreciate the propriety of it. It is exceeding ly selfish in woman who5wears one of the large style of hats to keep it on at the theater during the per formanee. It almost entirely cuts off the view of the poor unfortunate behind her.
 The wearing of mammoth mil. llnery is especially objectionable when the house is crowded, for then the individual who happens to be plant ted behind one of them is unable to change hisor her seat and must be satisfied with an occasional glimpse of the stage, or suffer the effects of rubber neck" in at temping to get an unobstructed view of it. These big hats will do very well on the street, but they are certainly out of place at the theater, and if custom does not require their removal common politeness should.
