The executive session OF the senate
was merely a. continuance OF the legal
argument which started with Senator
Spooner's speech in the open senate. 1t
grew out Of the question OF Senator Till
man concerning the status OF the Fill
pinos with reference to citizenship in
case the cession of the Philippines ISL
ands should be accomplished.
Senator Hoar made set argument,
quoting literally from authorities In sup
port Of the contention that they would
become citizens and be entitled TO all the
rights and privileges as such under the
constitution. This view was antago-
nized by Senators Plat OF Connecticut
Teller and Nelson.
Senator Nelson referred 70 the case
OF the acquisition of territory from
France and Spain during the history OF
the country. and read from many legal
opinions TO show that the Indians in such
territory were not citizens. Mr. Platt
made the point that citizens OF territory
were not full nedged citizens, and Mr..
Teller cor4ended that they were not un-
I'll they were made such by congressional
enactment.
Senator Davis, In charge of the treaty,
expressed the opinion after the adjourn
ment OF the senate that vote would be
secured today on the resolutions pend
ing in the senate declaratory Of the coun-
try's future attitude toward the Filipinos
in case of the ratification OF the treaty.
The first vote will be on the Bacon reso-
luton, which will probably be voted
down. vote will then be taken upon a
resolution more acceptable TO the ma
jority. probably that offered by Mr..
Sullivan, which it is believed will be
adopted.

If New Britain had played with the

they did the second and third periods

it was, the Grays swelled their percent
age. In the first period Providence
managed TO score two goals, and the
home team could not once place the ball
in the Providence goal. This made IL
an uphill battle. and the New Britains
fought harder and harder as the game
went on. But the best they could DO
with that lead against them was an
even break of goal apiece in each or
the last two periods. The Providence
men played in a way that indicated
their anxiety lest their present lead
should be reduced.
The game was a peculiar one, mas
much as each team played three rush-

Claims were staked in no time for several

| HOW TWO BLACK HILLS BOYS
STRUCK 1T RICH.

The following is a story OF real life
from the Black hills of South Dakota.
and tells how two brothers, Charlie and
Lee Carr, have made their fortunes by
one lucky throw. Less than four weeks
ago these brothers We're not known ten
miles from their neighborhood, and their
acuuaintances spoke of them as the Carr
bows, the cattlemen on Lightning creek;
today they have sprung INTO sudden
prominence. and the fame Of their rich
strike of gold has gone all over the land.
On the 18th of May the two brothers
were out on their dally rouhd LOOKING lof
lost cattle. They had been over the same
ground a good many times before, and
had even prospected with pick and ham,
mer the adjoining cliff for indications of
ore; but their mining attempts had thus
far been of no avail. The two brothers
had looked very thoroughly for their lost
cattle along Lightning creek, and had
about given up the unit when they came
to the mouth of Narrow Neck gulch, a
small tributary to Lightning creek. Lee,
the older of the two boys, was in the
lead, and, thinking that the cattle might
have strayed up the narrow gulch to the
right, turned his horse in that direction.
and the two brothers proceeded up Mar
row Neck gulch. They had not proceeded
far when Lee saw a small bowlder lying
at the base of a cliff, which showed in
dications Of being Highly mineralized. He
stopped his pony and, dismounting,
picked the rock up and gave it a casual
examination. Satisfying himself that it
contained no gold, he threw down the
stone and remounted his horse.
what was it, Lee?' Charlie asked.
"Only a piece Of ron-stained quartz"
was his answer.
"Iron-stained quartz is not found in
this gulch without meaning something.
Let me see the rock"
So Charlie ~dismounted, and. picking
up the little powder which is brother
Lee had just thrown away. hurled it
with considerable force against the rocks
at the side of the ravine. The rock broke
in two. and with a shout of surprise both
brothers picked up the fragments. The
round bowlder had been spit Very evenly
into halves, and there on each piece We're
many glittering specks of gold.
The first discovery had been made.
There was no more c~attle-hunting that
day. They naturally looked up on the
side of the mountain to see whence the
little round bowlder had come. They
climbed the steep side to a point about so
feet above the creek level, and almost
Immediately found the ledge of f%ree-gold
which has since proven to be SO rich.

klNGLY WOOING.

The manner in which the latest great
English courtship has been carried on
suggests in some details that employed
by Henry VIII. when in search of a
bride. He sent Franceys Marsyn James
Braybroke and John Stile to "see whether
she has a mustache," and to make other
personal observations. In regard to this
first particular the investigating commits
