SPECIAL RIVER
 AND HARBOR BILL Carries S400,0O0 for Earnings
 and Emergency Work BREEZY DAY IN HE HOUSE The Alaskan Code Bill Was Taken Up Under an Agreement for Three
 Hours Debate Various Po'
 litical Topics Discussed
BREEZY DAY IN HE HOUSE

Washington May 1.-The house today | passed a special river and harbor bill, car l rying $400000 for surveys and emergency | work, and devoted the remainder of the day to the Alaskan code bill. Four pages of 1 the 6l7 pages of the bill were disposed of before adjournment. When the house met, Mir. Burton of Ohio, chairman of the rivers and harbors commit | tee, asked unanimous consent for the con sideration of a special river and harbor bill, making provisions for emergencies in river and harbor work for certain surveys and for the diversion of certain appropria tions heretofore made. The amount carried by the bill, including the diversion, is siOo,ooO.
 When will the river and harbor commit tee bring in a that is river and harbor bill. asked MT. Clark of Missouri.
 Early in the next session." replied MT. Burton.
 MT. Berry of Kentucky, the ranking mil nority member of the committee, said the bill was perfectly satisfactory to the mil nority.
 MT. Richardson asked if provision of the bill contemplated the abandonment of the proposed improvement of Yauquni Bay, Oregon.
 MT. Burton replied that it would be inn proper for him to anticipate the action of the committed, but the engineers had re- ported adversely against the $lOO00O0 proj- ect, and that personally he favored its abandonment.
 After several unsuccessful efforts to cure amendments providing for additional surveys, the committee rose and the bill was passed.
 The President returned to the house a bill to pension John M. Smith These bene- ficiaries have died since the passage of the bill.
 The house then took up the Alaskan code bill, an agreement having been reached for three hours general debate with general leave to print
 The general debate was devoted almost exclusively to political topics. Many mem berS simply addressed the house for min ute or two in order to avail themselves of the privilege of printing remarks in the congressional record. MT w. E. Williams, of Illinois, spoke the subject of the Philippines.
 MT. Shuttuc of Ohio, took as his text an extract from speech made by MT. Clark, of Missouri in 1897, deriding the republican claim that the election of Me Kinley would be followed by prosperity, and made it the theme for a general sume of industrial conditions to show that the present administration had lifted the country out of the slough of despond" and had brought it to the high water mark of prosperity.
 After some further remarks, Messrs. Bar ney, Wisconsin,; Ridgley, Kansas Lloyd, Missouri; Gaines, Tennessee Kitchen, North Carolina; Mcdowell, Ohio; Knox, Massachusetts; McCleary, Minnesota; Olm- stead, Pennsylvania, and Caldwell Illinois, general debate was closed and the bill was read for amendment under the five minute rule.
 After disposng of four of the GIT pages of the bill, the house, at 4:55 p. m, ad- iourned.

the municipal authorities. The scheme, too, was a monopoly, and the service in New York, Brooklyn, Boston and Philadelphia was very limited.
 The cost in the four cities for the serv- ice varied greatly. In New York it cost $37 800 mile per annum in Brooklyn $12,- 400; In Boston, about $12,000 and in Phil adelphia S2400 The service, MT. Wolcott declared, had made saving of neither eX- pense nor of apprecable time.
 MT. Wolcott declared that the pneumatic tube people had "swarmed the senate cor riders all winter like bees in hiving time. They did not want merely the $25O,O00 nee essary to support the present service, but they wanted the additional appropriation of $500, ,000."
 He pointed out that the company con- trolling the pneumatic tubes had figured upon putting down 80 miles of them in the city of Chicago, and yet, he said, the post master of Chicago, until recently was op posed to the service, and now he was just violently in favor of it. This was true he said, of many other postmasters.
 We all want good mail service" said MT. Wolcott, but we do not want it at the expense of jobbery and corrupton-we do not want to be held up to secure it"
 Mir. Mason made an extended reply to MT. Nalcott. He presented petitions and memorials from trade and commercial bodies in Chicago showing that the people ol tiie "tSieiH IuelIolIoiiS were uuil III demanding the service. Referring to Mir. Wolcott he said:
 He cannot name man in the postoffce department except the man who has the wagon contract who is not in favor of the extension of this service; and l may say that among the bees buzZing around these corridors this winter the mail wagon bees have filled their share of space
 MT. Mason yielded the floor, promising to rl,c The conference report the agricultural ap- propriation bill was agreed to.
 The senate then, after a brief executive session, at 4:40 D. m., adjourned.

There's close sympathy between the brain and the stomach.
 A sick stomach means a sick headache unless relieved
 Mental worry causes Indigestion, and dys- pepsia causes irritability, worries, fears and anxeties without any apparent cause Bother the stomach and you bother the brain.
 Bliousness, irritability, dissatisfaction, sleeplessness are the first serious symp- toms If man gets up in the morning feeling as if he'd like to kick a cripple or kill the canary bird, he Lad better look out for his liver.
 The first sign is a warning to take Cas- carets, Candy Cathartic, the ideal laxa- tive, which tone up the bowels, make the liver lively, prevent sour stomach, purify the blood, brace the brain and make all things right as they should be.

MONTEVALLO SCHOOL
Teachers Will be Paid by Calendar
 Month-Commencem Ended

Montevallo, May 17.-(Special 1.-The Mon tevallo Industrial School for Girls com mencement, closed on yesterday. The teachers are now paid by the calendar month instead of scholastic months, and their salaries were raised from $60 per month to $65, excepting Mrs M. c. Babb the presiding teacher, whose salary was raised from $6O to $50 per month. These teachers have very hard work to perform There are over 400 girls in this school, and the trustees and public generally praise the very efficient work done by them and by the worthy president, Rev. F. M. Pet erSon.
 There was a request made by some of the board of trustees caused by the resigna- tion of Rev. George B. Eager of Montgom- cry be filled by a woman, but it is the opin- ion that the act creating the Montevallo Industrial School should have trustees Se- lected from each congressional district, and it is to inferred that the trustees are to be men, as special mention is made that the governor shall be a member of the board. The acts of Alabama, 1928, con tain the act establishing this school. The club women all over this state have voted $500 to this school for free scholarship for girls, who are not able to educate them selves. It is estimated that a very large per centage of the girls of this school be- long to families of moderate means, yet none are excluded from entering.
 Nothing but praise of the highest order has been given Rev. F. M. Peterson, pres ident, for the able manner in which he has conducted the financial affairs of the school, and advanced the educational work
