WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-Two very
sensational and unexpected things
happened in the House during the con-
sideration of the sundry civil bill.
The paragraph carrying the appropri-
alton Of $50. 1000. 900 for payment to
Spain under the terms of the peace
treaty was stricken out upon a point
of order made by Mr.. Wheeler, a Ken
lucky Democrat. who declared that
he opposed the appropriation on
principle and would resort to any
technicality to defeat it. The point
OF order was debated for hours,
its determination Ringing upon the
question of whether the ratification of
the treaty by the Senate and its sign
ing by the President vitalized it with
out the action of the Spanish cortes.
Warrant of law was necessary to make
the appropriation in order Mr.. Hop
kins, Republican, of Illinois, who was
in the chair, sustained the point Of
order against it, and upon appeal his
decision was sustained LIS to Sc.

PARIS, Feb. 2u M. Loubet was
elected president of the French re-
public, to succeed the late Felix
Faure, by the assembly of deputies
and senators Saturday afternoon.
There was only two candidates, NJ.
Loubet. Moderate Republican, and NJ.
Meline. Conservative. Loubet re.
ceived 4s3 votes against 27O for Meline.
Loubet is 81 years old and a lawyer
by profession. He entered public life
as mayor of Montelimart. In 1876 he
became a member of the chamber of
deputies. His present distinction
makes of interest the fact that he
voted for the expulsion of religious
orders from France several years ago.
He was, however, inconsistent enough
to secure the exemption of the Trap
pists in his department. from this
harsh treatment. He became a men,
Der of the senate in 1855 and minister
of public works in the Triad cabinet
in 1887. The portfolio remained in
his hands only four months.
In 1892 Loubet became premier. His
cabidet went to pieces in the Panama
revelations. Last month he was
elected president of the senate.
The fact that Loubet was opposed
by the anti-Semites, the bitter enemies
of Dreyfus. indicates that he is re-
garded as favorable to the revision of
the Dreyfus case.

stile. The woman crouched low in the
grass and waited until her husband
had passed down the road and out OF
view.
The man felt better for his mornings
experience. He felt that he had done
nothing wrong. and that he had re-
paired a neglect. Singularly enough,
nature had kept up her kind ministra-
tions, and the grave was as well tend
ed as 1t had been nearly two years be-
fore. The husband thought that he had
felt his last doubt-that the living wo-
man was as much to him now as the
first had ever been, and that his con-
science would never again allow a di-
vision of his consideration. He was,
indeed a happy man, as he walked into
his own open doorway and called cheer
fully for the wife Of his home. He
looked through the house, into the yard
and up and down the roadway.
"Its funny" he thought. "She doesn't
often go out so early in the morning"
As he stod at the gate one of the
neighbors called to him:
"Your folks are UP early. Nothin'
wrong, I hope"
Nothing at ALL"
"Didn't know but what you was sick.
Saw your ie goin' up. toward the
folks just now"
The man at the gate didn't hear any
thing more. He was thinking. 1t was
strange that he had not passed her.
He thought of the night before, and as
the events of the evening passed
through his mind he went back to the
house for his hat. He picked 1t up
from a table in one of the rooms, and
as he did so a bit of paper nuttered to
the floor But Ii was only Il newspaper
clipping of verses and he tossed 1t back
and hurried out and on up the hill in
the direction of his wife's home. As he
proceeded he saw crowd on ahead at
the cemetery, and men were hurrying
to and fro in such an unusual way for
that quiet place. He kept on. Pretty
soon n man came up to him. and, put
ting his hand on his shoulder, said:
TITS awful" and another and another
had Joined him. until he was the center
of a crowd, all moving to the little
cemetery.
He found her there, lying across the
flower-decked mound. with a small
pistol that he had given to her clasped
in her right hand. and on her temple
there was a small red spot. He stag
gered over to the form of the woman
and put his arm about 1t.
The constable started to take hin,
away, because the coroner had not
come, but the crowd kept the official
back for who had better right thar
he to touch the dead? The man graspet
the small white hand that held the pis-
tol and gently loosened the fingers tha
clung to it. Then, in an instant ant
before anybody realized what he was
about, he put the muzzle to his owl
forehead, and, the coroner when II,
came, prepared a verdict in two case,
instead of one.-St Louis Republic.
