The House.

Washington, Feb. 19.-Thc general
debate on the Porto Rican tariff bill
closed yesterday in blaze OF glory.
The galleries were banked to the doors
and every seat OH the floor was occu.
pied when the rival champions OF the
respective sides, Mr.. Dolliver Of Iowa
and Mr.. Bailey Of Texas. made their
arguments. Each spoke for al hour
and a half. The speech of Mr.. Bailey.
devoted as it was almost to the legal
phases Of the controversy, while it was
profound and impressive, did not cause
the unbounded emotion which swept
the galleries and floors when Mr.. Dol
liver was speaking. The rowan was ut
his best. and his wit, eloquence and
sarcasm drew salvos of applause from
his Republican associates. Before the
closing speeches were made. Mr..
Cannon of Illinois. chairman of the ap-
preparation committee, and one of the
veterans on the Republican side, made
an exceptionally effective speech in
support of the bill. Messrs. Carmack.
Peyton. Kleberg, Pearce and Dc Ar
mond had also made speeches in oppo-
sition to the bill. The Republican

and uplifting of the people of the Phil
ippines as well as those of this coun-
try, that the galleries were swept by Il
storm of applause. After Mr. Turley
bad concluded his speech on the Quay
case the Hawaiian government bill was
again taken up, but little progress was
made. An agreement was reached that
a final yoee should be taken ON the
measure today.

A base ball game is being arranged
between the court house officials and the
printers of this town. The game is be-
ing talked about and played over great
many times so far as the talk is con-
cerned. The date is not fixed yet, but it
will be soon after court adiourns. The
benefits will go to the Columbian club
Some who will play hope there will not
be much OF crowd to see the game, and
we'll they may SO wish. Considerable
good natured talk isindulged in between
the two sides already. The printers call
the court house fellows court house
rats and the officials call the printers
bum prints" We notice some Of the
officials are already nursing lame fingers
because of practicing with the ball. We
would advise them not to practice any
more or they will never be able to even
enter the game.

Word was recently received here OF
the death Of Edmond Robinson on April
Odd at his home in Rock county, Nebras-
ka. Mr.. Robinson was the first settler
on the present town site Of Audubon.
He settled here, from the best we can
learn, in about 1868 when this part of the
county was bleak and unsettled
prairie. He built little house on the
location where the cottonwood trees now
are near the North Western depot
where the Heibel house now is. He
simply squatted on this land, supposing
it was open to homestead, but when he
tried to get his title he found the lant
belonged to the Rock Island Rail Roa6
company. He gave peaceable possession
to the company and they gave hin
few acres in the vicinity of his house
He moved away from here several year,
ago. At the time Of his death he wal
fifty -four years old. He visited hi
friends here only few months ago. Mr.
Robinson is spoken of by the old settler,
as having been man of industry ant
possessing many good qualities.

The high school base ball team of this
place had agreed to play a return game
with the Atlantic high school team, but
the Atlantic team, on thinking matters
over and remembering Audubon's strong
players, evidently got scared and abso-
lutely refused to play our team at all.
That shows our team is getting a way up
reputation in base ball as we'll as in
other things. They will play Manning

Prof. Hooker received communica-
ton this week admitting the Audubon

Blind Boone entertained larg

Blind Boone entertained large
audience at the Presbyterian church last
night. He is remarkable person,
negro whose home is at Columbia, Mis-
souri,, is thirty.six years old and has
been totally blind since he was six
months old. He has remarkable
memory and can repeat almost any piece
Of music on the piano after hearing it
once. He puts lots of vigor, enthusiasm
and individuality into his playing and
evinces high musical proficiency. Some
Of the limitations he gave pleased the au-
dience as we'll as anything else. He initial
ed the fife and drum so naturally that We
all thought Drake himself was there.
The incoming train with its rush and
roar and confusion of noises even to the
"change cars for Extra" sounded very
natural. But the climax was in imitat-
ng the tornado with the roar of wind
and crash Of thunder. The oncoming Of
the storm and its dying out in the
distance weae beautiful and long to be
remembered. Blind Boone deserves the
popularity he has.

The Phoenix motel Ii III oue sense
Oldest hotel in the whole western coun-
try, for it. has, with varying changes,
continued to exist ever since the year
1900. 1t was here that Aaron Burr
lodged in 1906 while engaged in his
daring conspiracy to make himself the
head of a new empire and was here
met and welcomed by Herman Blen-
nerhassett, the cultured but unfortu-
nate Irishman he had so completely
fascinated. Here, as FAR back as JEFF
ferson's administration, Democrats and
Federalists, in knee buckled breeches,
ruffled shirts and dangling cues, talked
redhot politics. 1t was the scene of a
sumptuous dinner to Lafayette, and
later was the stopping place Of the
willy Mexican chieftain General Santa
Anna. During the civil war, while
Lexington was held by the Confeder-
ates, it was the headquarters Of Gener-
ais Bragg and Kirby Smith and before
the struggle ended sheltered General
Grant. President Arthur has also been
its guest.-Lexington Ry1 Observer.
An English clergyman, rather POM

who seemed to have been at work.

clergyman.
Sweeping the chimneys at the VIC

"How many chimneys are there, and
how much do you get for eachr' was
the next question.
The sweep said there We're 20 chin
neys and that he was paid a shilling
apiece.
The clergyman, after thinking a mo-
ment, looked at the sweep in apparent
establishment. you have earned "a
great deal of money in little time"
he remarked solemnly, wondering,
probably, what the sooty fellow would
reply.
"Yes," said the sweep, throwing his
bag over his shoulder as he started
away. 1--WE who wear black coats
