most exacting. The senate fought,
wrangled, and senators engaged in
personal and political abuse right up
to adjournment, and emnity was arous-
Of the participants. Although poll
tics was at the bottom of the squab-
bling. in several instances senators
took advantage Of the opportunity to
even up personal scores. The wrangle
over the armor plate clause of the ma
val appropriation bill, which was the
last passed, was fully compromised by
leaving it to Secretary Long to decide
whether he will pay the price asked
for armor plate or spend the $1,000, 600
in establishing plant for the govern
ment to make its own arm0r plate. A
small appropriation for surveys in the
same bill delayed adjournment for a
day.
The honse finished its business
ahead of the senate, but it had all
night session at which there was more
excitement than business. A quorum
was lost and the seargeant at arms and
his assistants were chasing all over
Washington arousing absentees so as
to make quorum in order that a re-
cess might be taken, quorum having
been made necessary by the raising of
a point of order. For time there
were threats Of extending the session
indefinitely, but they were not made
good. The session was 138 days long,
the shortest long session for a number
Of years.
Congress provided for the promo
tion Of General Miles to lieutenant
general, and General Corbin to major
general, although it was a close fight
up to the last minute, owing to Oppo-
sitiOn in the house to these promo
tions and to the clause in the same
bill increasing the number of cadets at
West Point, which also went through.
Representative Lentz of Ohio made a
bitter and sensational speech against
the increase of cadets, but the house
finally agreed to it, although the ad-
ditional appointments to West Point
are to be controlled by the president
and senators only.

new EMPIRE THEATRE.

1.-TWO Little Migrants" the big meio-
drama which will make its annual visit
at the Empire Theatre next week is a
great favorite OF Providence play-goers,
owing to its heart interest and 9emarka-
bly, strong situations.
In the first act there are two pictures
that are painted in strong dramatic col
ors to furnish the ground work for the
subsequent scenes. The next two acts are
filled mainly with the children, Fan Fan
and Claude. There is deal To bring
laughter and a deal to bring tears, but
all is so natural and so tender and so
which might easily serve as a play with
out the preceding or succeeding acts.
A uniformity of dramatic power and
skill is apparent from the first scene un-
III the last, no situation or climax falling
into common place or insignihcance and
each action without the slightest exag-
geration. To sum IL all up IL is pre-emi-
nently natural The realistic features OF
the play are enhanced by the admirable
scenic effects which are duplicates of the
European production.
The company which delineates the
characters in the drama is said to be ex-
cellent, comprising many of the old IA
vorites including Anna Bodden, Lottie
Briscoe. Ethele Earle, Katharine Vim
cent. Ruth Eldredge, Arthur Cogliser
Del La Barre, Harry Collins. Hugh Cam
eron, James Baum, Robert Mullen and
Neva Harrison as Fan-Fan.
