pie uses this method of Uriah
Heap hypocricy to start another de
fence of the recent national republi-
can party: s'The convention had to
have a chairman and Mr.. Lodge was
selected-that was ALL" says Mr..
Pierson.
That was ALL indeed! I ask you,
sir, if you mean to say, at this per-
iod of Americas political history,
that Mr.. Lodge was selected be-
cause he happened to be near some
chair that had been conveniently |
placed for a presiding officer to over
look the convention? Do you mean
to say that some n else would
have been chosen chairman, had
that some one else been SO phys
ically related, as to proximity,
as to suffer no further inconvenience
than to merely squat a few inches
and find himself comfortably seated
in a chair, with a gavel before him
and there, to have showered, from
on high. a sudden af1atus of author
ity to recognize speakers, to call
folks to order and to declare motions
lost, OR carried?
Did you not know, sir, in at

Cabot Lodge was selected, not, l

a Republican, because he repre-
sented all Of the a%ntagonism of
the Republican rarity to white
supremacy in the South, as illus

Mr.W. T. Vanlandingham's gin
house narrowly escaped dsstruc.
tion bv fire Sunday morning
about 4 O'Clock. The fire was dis
covered by a colored woman liv
ing on the place. She gave the
alarm and in very short time
about 25 people had gathered
there and by prompt and heroic
work with buckets and water the
flames were subdued. Quite a
hole was burned in the floor when
the fire was discovered.
Mr.. Vanlandingham thinks the
fire originated from rates and a
match, or that it was incendiary.
There was no insurance on the
property and had it been de.
stroved it would have entailed a
heavy loss on its owner.

WORKED OFF YEARLY JOKE.
Uot Attacks In the Speech of Sims-He
Recently Charged That Northern Pub.
lie Sentiment Was Debnuched on the
Pension Question.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-THE house in.
dulged in its annual joke by striking
from the Legislative appropriation bill
all provision for the civil service COM
mission. This action is taken each year
in committee Of the whole, where the
members do not go on record, AMI the
provision is then invariably restored
when the bill gets back in the house,
where members have to respond to their
names upon roll call. The vote to
strike out was Is to 81.
Most Of the time Of the house, beyond
that occupied in the discussiosI Of the
civil service law, was devoted to attacks
upon tho speech made by Mr.. Sims
| DEM, Tenn.) on Wednesday, in which
he furnished some figures Of the pension
office showing the number of applica-
tions for pensions filed by soldiers Of
the volunteer regiments engaged in the
| Spanish war, to show that the northern
soldiers We're much more clamorous in
| hat regard than the southerners, and at.
tributing this to the debauching of pub
| lie sentiment in the north on tho pen
Eion question.
Mr.. Pearre (Rep., Md raised tho
storm by a reference to those figures and
the statement that hundreds Of Massa-
chusetts soldiers who never sinelled
powder had applied for pensions. This
brought out an indignant reply from Mr..
Fitzgerald Dem, Mass.), who detailed
the record of the Massachusetts, volun-
teers in the late war. He was followed
by others, who defended the records Of
the solIiers from their several states.
Mr.. Hepburn (ra.) vigorously assalled
MIR. Sims. Considerable temper was
shown.
When the session opened announce
ment of the receipt Of the currency bill
from the senate was made, and on mo.
| tion of Mr.. Overstrcet Ind by unapi-
nous consent, the senate amendments
were disagreed to. The speaker APP

Chicago, Feb. 17.-Joe Choyrski was
given the decision over Peter Maher in a
siX-round contest before the Fort Dear
born Athletic club, LII the last two
rounds Of the fight Maher, maddened by
the sting of Choynslxi's left glove,
rushed furiously, but was almost invari-
ably straightened up, and during the
closing minute of the last round was so
badly punished that he was staggering
as the bell rung.
III the first round, Choynsd caught
Mahor with left hook squarely on the
point of the jaw, a second before the he'll
rang, and it is probable that if the round
had lasted moment more, Choynsld
would have won light there, as the
blow made Maher reel like drunken

in the second with hard left to tho
chin and stomach, and had clear lead
during that round. Thereafter, how.
