IN the House.

in the House.
Washington. April 5.-Peace was re
stored in the senate yesterday before
the body convened and during the pro-
ceedingS or the session there was only
4 reminder OF the harsh language used
just before adjournment Tuesday. The
session opened with a lively and inter
esting discussion of the status of the
Quay case, in the course of which VOL
colt apologiZed for the language he had
used. and Lodge said he had never
taken offenSe, believing none was in
tended.
There was another sort of scene IN
the house as fhe climax of Il discus
sion of the Kentucky situation. when
Wheeler. n Kentucky Democrat. and
Pugh. kentucky Republican, faced
each other from opposite sides of the
main aisle and INDUCED in Il wordy
duel. Pugh charged Wheeler with
disappearing cSrtain facts. He was
laboring under great excitement.
Wheeler was quick toreSent the fancied
insult. but awaited the explanation of
Pugh in which he disclaimed any in
tention of imputing to him personally
a desire to diStort the facts. The de-
bate was precipitated by Il speech of
Boreing. Republican. from kentucky.
1t was the first time the subject had
been preached VI the house and in
tense interest was manifested. Wheel
er defended the Goebel law and Bore
ing and Pugh denounced it. Lacey of
Iowa concluded the debate with a gen
eral denunciation of the Goebel cleo

1T is VERY SCIENTIFIC.
A Few of the Many Points of Excellence
Not to Be Found Among Others.

Morrow's Kid-ne-oids, the great
remedy for kidney and urinary all
ments, is scientific preparation. 1t
has been projected after eighteen
years of hard work by an experienced
chemist. Kid-ne-oids act gently,
thoroughly, quickly and directly on
the kidneys, nerves and urinary or
gans. They build up the system and
restore it's normal parts to their nat
ural condition.
Mrs. George Cough, 632 Grace
street, Elgin, H., speaks in favor of
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids as follows: II
have had severe pain in my back for
long time previous to taking Nor
rows Kid-ne-oids, but after taking
them relief came suddenly and l can
recommend Kid-ne-oids to anyone
suffering from a weak back, which is
caused by disordered kidneys"
When the kidneys are sluggish and
overworked, bsckache is the first in
dication that something is wrong.
Do not let slight backache or pain
in the region of the kidneys go un-
needed. A few doses of Morrow's
Kid-ne-oids will remove the backache
Al q very sHOll lAnCb anu q COuIoC VI
treatment with Kid-ne-oids for about
two weeks is usually sufficient to
cure bad case of kidney complaint.
Kid-ne-oids are not pills, but yellow
tablets, which is scientific form of
preparing medicine. They cure all
kidney ailments. They are put up in
wooden boxes, which contain enough
for about two weeks treatment and
sell at soc at all drug stores.

&c years of age. His pockets were
found to be full of anarchist literature.
He fired two shots ut the prince. When
examined by the station officials Sipide
declared he intended to kill the Prince
of Wales; that he did not regret his
action. and that he was ready to do it
again if given chance to do so. He
subsequently said he wanted to kill the
Prince of Wales because he caused
thousands OF men to be slaughtered in
South Africa" Hearing the shots the
StationmaSter ruShedUo the scene and
knocked down the would-be aSsassin's
arm as he prepared TO fire a third shot,
and a number of persons threw them
selves on the princes aSSailant.
Two of His Cartridges Failed.
An examination of SipidO's revolver
showed that four chambers had been
discharged, but that two of the car
tridgeS had missed fire. The weapon
is of the cheapest siX-chambered de-
scription. such as is usually sold here
for 315 francs. SipidO has round,
boyish face. black eyes and dark hair.
At the examination before the magis-
trate il was ascertained that he had
purchased penny ticket in order To
reach the departure platform. where
he walked up and down quite a while
at the same time the prince was
promenading. The Prince of Wales
appeared quite unaffected by the incl
dent. He begged that the culprit might
not he treated too severely.
Belginns Denouuce the Crime.
The attack is condemned even at the
labor headquarters here and at the
Maison du Peuple, where the extreme
anarchists meet. The Journal de
Bruxeilen says: This outrage will
provoke the Indignation of all honest
people in every civilized country. and
especially Belgium. We StigmatiZe il
as the crime of a youth of disordered
brain. We deeply regret that it was
committed in Belgium, and we con-
graduate the Prince #. Wales uuon his

to the senate yesterday in the shape of
a petition from Cuba praying that a
law be passed to prohibit the use of

The Georgetown Trouble.

Georgetown, Specialize George
town race riot did not materialize The
trouble arose Saturday evening when j.
c. Scurry, a deputy sheriff, went into a
barber shop to collect delinquent taxes
from negro barber. John BroUnfield.
A dispute arose and words came to
blows. In the scuffie that followed
Scurry's pistol dropped from his pocket
and was snatched up by the negro
(Brownfield), who, In rapid succession,
fred five shots at Scurry, each taking
effect in some part Of his body. The
negro then fled but was captured by a
policeman and placed in Jail. Scurry
died at 10 o'clock Sunday morning. Ex-
citement ran high. for it was consid-
cred coldblooded murder. The coroner's
jury was composed of white men.
A rumor was circulated among the
negroes that the white men during the
night would ring the fire hell and
when the negroes would ru to their
engines then the whites would run to
the Jail. take Brownfeld cut and lynch
him. This is exactly what the neg-oss
did Themselves about 1880. and be'ore
the bell was through ringing. by prea-
cement, between 800 and 1000 ne,
gres gathered around the jail with
guns and rifles to protect, as they said,
the negro from being lynched. The
ringing Of the fire bell was accom-
Dapied nv screams and vel g from the
negro women and children.
Mayor w. D. Morgan, Sheriff Skinner
and others went to the Jail and tried
to persuade them to disperse. but thy
told them fatty that they would not.
Capt. S. NJ. Ward, of the Georgetown
Rife Gu3rds. called out his company,
ard they have been under arms ever
since. The Governor ordered several
companies to the scene. and their pres
ence seems to have had the effect Of
quieting the negroes. No further
trouble is feared.
