SOME SPICY

Stirring Resolutions May be Intro

Political News.

It Is whispered in political circles that
a resolution may be introduced in the
Democratic caucus of extra session Of the
Legislature declaring 1t to be the sense
of tat body that Judge Riely's success.
sor shall be chosen from that grand dlvi-
sion Of the State from which the lament
ed jurist came. a member of the Legis-
lature said last night that should this be
done it would be- promptly met by one
declaring that it was the sense of the
caucus not to elect any man to any office
within the gift of the Legislature who
was a member of that body.
II either OF these resolutions should be
offered. a hot fight would ensue, and 1t is
likely that better feeling would be en-
sendered.
A prominent member OF the Legislature
stated 1t as his, opinion yesterday that
whoever might be chosen as judge OF the
Supreme Court. Judge Phlegra would hold
until January /. 1902. as his idea of the
law is that it provides for the qualifica-
ten OF a judge elected to succeed to a
vacancy on the first day of January sue
s-eeding his election.
Other lawyers, however. take differ
ert view OF the case, and hold that the
election relates back to the first day OF
the preceding January.

Striking Incident of The War.

"To see q squad of nine naked men
cross stream on a small raft and
drive out an intrenched force of ten
times their number in broad daylight,
where their number must soon become
known, is something not soon to be
forgotten. History does not relate a
braver or more striking incident Of
the war.
This description of a small detail of
American troops charging upon an en-
emy four times their number and cap
turing trenches, while the Americans
were clad in an undress uniform not
provided for in the army regulations,
is taken from report just received
at the War Department frcm the
Philippines.
The report is made by Captain J. P.
Bachelor, of the Twenty-fourth In
fantry, on the results Of an expedition
from San Nicholas to Aparri, in
Luzon.
Captain Ratchellor had orders to
cross the mountains of southern Ben
guet and prevent the insurgents from
retreating into the valley of tie Rio
Grande de Kagayan. The troops
were "to live upon the country" a
military phrase which means that the
soldiers were to forage for every
thing.

Character in the Tongue.

Glossomanciei is new science" i'll
troduced by Miss Erbere No, oi
Paris, consisting of reading the char
actar by the form and size OF the
tongue. The guiding principles are
as follows: If the tongue is long it is
an indication of frankness; if it is
short, of dissinulation; if is is broad,
of expansiveness; if narrow, of con.
centration. When the tongue is
both long and Target it implies that the
possessor is great gossip, frank to
disagreeable"ass and thoughtless. II
the tongue be long and narrow, its
owner is only halffrank, thinking as
much as is uttered but not always ut.
tering all that is thought. Ii the
tongue be short and broad, there is
promise of plenty of gossip-and false
hoods; it talks a great deal, but says
little of what is really thought. Il
short aud narrow it indicates deep
cunning and lying; impenetrabiIity
and great prudence. This tongue be-
longs to those persons always ready
to make mistakes but eager to inspire
confidence.
SO, then, not the physician alone is
to be guided by the tongue, but be-
fore you become intimate with any,
one, ask him or her to put out his or
her tongue, that you may be certain
whether they are to be trusted or not.

Sailor Adamson,s Rescue.

A tale of adventure aud rescue that
is like a leaf from the most exciting
pages of the nautical noyelists is told
by those on board the British ship
Glenuesslin, which recently arrived
at Honolulu.
Last Sunday morning, at 2 o'clock,
William Adamson, one of the sailors,
was washed overheard from the bow

stroke and was in r ior an
hour, he is now sakl ship, mona
the worse for his experience. HIS
rescue was due to the determination
of Captain Pritchard to h'ake every
possible effort to save the man, and to
the brave work of a rescue crew oi
volunteers in the ships lifeboat. Cap,
tain Pritchard gives the following 'ac'
count of the incident. ~
''I had just gone to bed, leaving the
mate in charge of the deck, when ]
heard the cry of Man overheard. A
fresh wind was blowing with a nasty
head sen and we were making abon!
nine knots an hour. [ rushed on the

he was drowned. But ! was not going

missing man.
"The lifeboat was Immediately lost
sight of in the darkness, but from
time to time we could hear the voices
of the men till the sound died away.
A night rescue is different from one
in the day. There is something dread
full about leaving ship at night in a
small boat. After an anxious wait I
was rewarded by hearing three faint
cheers from the direction in which
the boat had gone. The sounds were
heard by no one else, but soon the
boat returned, guided by rockets and
blue lights which we were sending
up, and bringing the rescued man."

Rescued by a Woman.

Andrew Swaney, Deputy Sheriff OF
Flathead County, former member OF
the First Montana Volunteers, had a
miraculous escape from death few
days since. His life was saved by the
heroism of woman. Swaney, in serv-
ing some papers iu the Clark inyesti-
eating case at Washington, had crossed
Swan Lake on the ice in the morning,
driving double team. Returning in
the evening, he again tried to cross
the lake, when without warning the
ice gave way, precipitating horses,
carriage and driver ir fourteen feet of
water.
Mrs. David Carpenter, who heard
Swaney's cries for help, appeared just
as one of the horses had pulled the
Deputy Sheriff under the water.
Swaney clung to the horses leg and
rose to the surface with the horse.
Mrs. Carpenter lay fat upon the ice
and after tedious struggle managed
to get Swaney out. Both horses were
drowned.
