sents differences from the one just noticed
even more pronounced than those which dis
unguish the vivacious sanguine from the
torpid Emphatic. For convenience of refer
ence l will call it the mitigated bilious, but
shall be grateful for suggestions for q more
euphonious designation. Women of this
variety possess dark hair, pale complexion,
soft hazel eyes and a delicately nodded
form. Their attractiveness to the sterner
sex arises from the rather negative quail
tiles of a deficiency of combativeness and
resistance, a soft melancholy, and a docility
Of temper The medical opinion is that the
melancholic tendency and gentle taciturnity
are simply manifestations of deficient
physical energy, but that we will attribute
TO the perversity of the medical mind. The
more interesting individuals of this variety,
while exhibiting none Of the tenacity Of the
true bilious type, nor of that perpetual read
mess to defend their opinions OF the SAN
guine, yet live consistently in a sort of at
mosphere Of goodness, and reveal a confid-
ing constancy to the objects of their affec-
ton. They are specially adapted to that old
fashioned and much out-of-date husband,
who thinks he should be master in his own
house. 1t is to be feared they are diminish
ing in number, being stimulated and edu-
Gated out Of existence. Examples Of the two
types of women last described, and the
striking differences which so widely sep
arate them, are portrayed in Miss Murd-
stone and Agnes Wickfeld; also in Lady
Ashton and her daughter, the Bride Of Lam
mermoor.

TWO HONEST DEMOCRATS
REFUSE TO ASSIST IN UNSEATING A
REPUBLICAN LEGISLATOR.
Features of the West Virginia Sem
iOus for "A Caucus at Olympia.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, Jan. a. = The
chief development in the West Virginia SEN
atorial situation to-day was the issuing Of
a call for a Republican senatorial caucus,
to be held next Thursday night The petit
ton was put into circulation by the Scott
forces. 1t was Endorsed also by Governor
Atkinsons managers. The friends of other
senatorial candidates would only consent to
sign the call for a continuous session from
Monday on as long as they chose to make it.
BY delay the opposition to Scott has sought
to defeat the plan for early solution Of
the situation. The Democrats to-day put in
circulation a call for a senatorial caucus to
be held next Wednesday night. In the House
to-day a sensation was created by the re-
fusal of two Democratic members to vote
in favor of the report of a special commit
tee which proposed that Via, Rep, from
Monroe county, be unseated, and Logan,
DEM, be seated in his place third Dem
ocrat paired off with a Republican, and Via,
having been temporarily unseated, could not
vote. The ballot was "A to A. The queS-
ton will be voted on again Monday.

THE BILIOUS TEMPERAMENT.
Type of Individual Possessing Many
Good Qualities.
The Humanitarian

The bilious temperament was originally so
called from a supposed redundancy of bile in
the system. 1t need scarcely be said that its
strongly marked physical and mental char
acteristics have no necessary connection
with the functions of the liver. This tenn
permanent is in many respects the converse
OF the sanSulne. If all were divided into two
classes, the fair and the dark, the sanguine
would be the type of the one and the bilious
OF the other 1t is a noteworthy fact that
most cases of melanchOlia are degenerate
forms of the bilious temperament. The ply
steal peculiarties are a spare but strong
bony frame, dark skin rather pale complex
ION and reSolute expression of countenance
amounting to harShneSS The medical teS-
umony attributes TO this temperament a
high degree OF resistance to noxious agen-
cleS. Inc mental and moral characters IN
clude great strength and infeXibility of pur-
pose, difficulty in forgiving, slowness in
taking in fresh ideas. tenacity III clinging to
opinions principles and prejudices rather
obstinate and somewhat limited in interests
and in range and variety of SympathieS. 1t
Is little Instantaneous to nave this par
ueular type so named, since the popular
idea of a bilious temperament Is associated
either with suspicious jealousy or something
equally disagreed BILE, and consequently there
is Some reluctance to accept the designa-
ton for ourselves or to apply ii to those
whom We like and respect; but this feeling
arises from an erroneous conception. While
persons of this temperament may not be so
accommodating as the sanguine and some
times nurse animosities through life
time, yet they form steadfast friend
ships and are heroically faithful, and when
endowed with a sense of humor they present
an admirable character. They have fur-
nished more martyrs than all other types
together With regard to martyrdom, that
strange phenomenon which has always APP
peared when dogmatists have been allied
to the secular power, it is interesting to
note that those who burnt their theological
rivals, as well as those who deliberately pre-
ferred death rather than humor the insane
fanatics who had the ascendency, were
mostly of the bilious type. Ignatus Boyola,
Torquemada and John Gavin were I'M
doubtedly Of a melanchoic type in which
the bilious predominates: and the probable
ny is that Gardiner and Bonner differed
from Latimer and Ridley in opinion far more
than in temperament. Women of the true
bilious temperament display the same
abundant osseous development, angularity
Of frame, reSolute hrmness and hardness of
character Of their brothers in constitution.
The so-called strong minded woman. the
sort that frightened Cupid in Punchs pic
ture, and made him drop his bow and or
rows and extend his chubby fingers in aston
ishment. belongs to this class

FEAR FOR MISS TAGGART
VESSEL SHE Was on IN SOUTHERN
WATERS REPORTED LOST.
Mayor Can Hear Nothing from It-On
Trip with school
- Friends.

There was great anxiety last night in the
minds of the friends of Miss Florence Tag
CART, daughter of Mayor Taggart, by the
receipt of alarming news regarding the
safety of launch on which she has been
making a trip along the southern coast Of
Florida. About Dec. 10 a party consisting
of Miss Taggart, Miss Marjorie Woodland,
of S55 lakewood boulevard, Chicago, and
Miss Florence Yocum, daughter of Colonel
William Yocum, of st. Louis, Colonel Yo-
cum and others left for an extensive trip
down the Mississippi river and along
the Florida coast The party started
from Louisville and reached New Or
leans about fifteen days ago in safety.
From there they started for Bellaire
Florida. Nothing has been heard of the
Paul Jones, which was the name of the
launch, for five days Since the party left
northeast gale has been raging, and the
owner of the launch, Lawrence Jones, has
become anxious as to her safety, and the
word came to this city from Mobile where
Mr.. Jones has sent most appealing mes
sages, that the launch be searched for. No
word has been received from Mobile re-
garding the vessel.
Mayor Taggart yesterday wired to both
Pensacola and Bellaire, at which points
the launch was expected to stop, but nothing
has been heard of it at either point.
Late last night dispatches were received
from Pensacola, stating that records of
some boat had been found near there, and
they are supposed to be those of the Paul
Jones. although that point has not been
positively settled. The advices from Mo-
bile referred to the appealing messages
which had been received that the launch
should be searched for, but beyond the
records found there has been no word there.
AS the matter now stands a doubt over
hangs the fate of the launch and the party
on board
Those above named, with the crew, con-
stitute all who were on board.
Mayor Taggart had received no word up
to 2 o'clock this morning, and nothing more
definite could be learned by wire than the
above. Miss Taggart was one of the best
known and most popular young ladies of the
city. Her charming character and her kind
ly disposition have made her a general ia
vorite. Mayor Taggart said last evening
that he chung to the hope that the storm has
driven the launch from the contemplated
path, and that it may have put in at some
port from which word could not be sent.
All points along the coast have been notified
to be on the lookout for the launch, or for
any tidings of it, and the Florida points are
aroused over the possible fate of the vessel.

Congress Must Provide Relief.

WASHINGTON, Jan. H.-Senators Till
man and McLaurin, Of South Carolina,
called on the President to-day relative to
the recent decision of the controller of the
currency that the States which expended
money in raising volunteer regiments for
service in the late war could not be remun-
Grated by the federal government. In the
case of the Southern States the money so
expended is to be applied on the debt owing
from the States to the federal government.
In the case of South Carolina, however, this
money was not taken from the state treas
ury, but was advanced by Governor Eiler-
bee out of his own pocket in order to facili-
tate matters. The same thing was true of
the Governor of Missouri. president Nc
kinley suggested that the only remedy lay
in special legislation by Congress. He in
dictated that he would approve a special
bill if it were passed. Senator McLaurin
will introduce a special bill.
