Postonice Appropriation BIlI Passed
 by the House.

by the House.
 Almost the entire session of the senate Thursday was devoted to the considera- ton of the right of Senator Scott of West Virginia to his seat. The house passed the postoffice appropriation bill. The senate committee on interstate commerce made an adverse report on the bill en- larging the powers of the interstate com merce commission.
 The senate on Friday decided that Senator Scott of West Virginia was en- titled to his seat. Mir. Chandler gave no tice in the senate that he would call up the report on the Clark case next Wednesday. The house passed 91 pen sion bills.
 The Democrats of the house on Mon day made s stand against the senate bill for a commission to investigate trade conditions in the orient and succeeded in eliminating the enacting clause in com. mittee of the whole. The house referred a resolution providing for constitutional amendment prohibiting polygamy to the committee on judiciary. The Lacey game bill was passed by the house. The con ferrees agreed on the joint resolution amending the Porto Rico bill. The sen, ate passed the conference tax report. In the senate the Alaskan code bill was un. der discussion. Mir. Hansbrough charged that the best claims were being held for the benefit of rich corporations. The president signed the Hawaiian bill.
 The house on Tuesday took up the con sideration of the Nicaragua canal bill. Unexpectedly powerful opposition was developed. The senate passed the Alaska ,ivil code bill after the withdrawal of the .lauses in dispute. The debate on the lrmy appropriation bill in the senate de- yeloped into an argument on trusts.

Do not feed musty hay to dairy cows, nor in fact any kind of fodder that is musty, says an exchange. Some be- lieve that this mustiness will not pass through into the milk, and 1t may be so, but we are suspicious of the truth of the assertion. It is fact that there Is difference in the flavor of butter made on June grass and the butter made in the winter when the cows are fed on dry hay. If this difference in feed makes any difference in flavor, why may it not make good deal of difference if the feed be particularly bad? Moldy feed Is a bad thing to have around in any case and should be thrown out. Using it as COW bed ding Is likely to make the matter worse, for the whole stable will be scented with it, and in the morning when the milk Is drawn it will certain ly be tainted. and this taint will grow as the cream ripens. It Is not advisa- ble to use this for bedding and depend on airing the barn enough in the morn ing to get the smell out. This would be seldom done at all and where done 1t would generally be done in a very imperfect manner. The presence of spoiled feed Is very often the cause of poor butter.

Officers who have recently arrived in Manila from Nueva Caceres in the prov ince of South Camarines, bring details of fight April Is in which 80 Filipinos were killed. The American outposts re- ported 300 natives assembled three miles from the town, and General Bell sent three attachments of the Forty-fifth regi- ment, with two Maxims, who nearly sur rounded the Filipinos, the majority of whom were armed with bolos and wore carabao hide helmets, coats and shields The Filipinos were quickly put to flight, leaving the field strewn with armor Their rif1emen were unable to shoot straight, and the bolomen never got near enough to the Americans to do any exc cution. Therefore none of the Americans was wounded. Lieutenant Balch, with 20 cavalrymen from the Thirty-seventh regiment, cornered 90 bolomen in river and shot every one, the bodies floating away. One soldier had his head struck off with bolo.

come themselves. remember very well in the country that in boyhood moving day was a jubilation.
 On almost the first load we, the chill dren, were sent on ahead to the new house, and we arrived with shout and laughter. and in an hour we had rang ed through every room In the house, the barn and the granary. Toward night, and perhaps in the last wagon. father and mother would come, look ing very tired, and we would come down to the foot of the lane to meet them and tell them of all the wonders we. discovered in the new place, and then, the last wagon unloaded, the can- dies lighted, our neighbors who had helped us to move-for in those times neighbors helped each other-sat down with us at a table on which there was every luxury they could think of. We'll, my dear Lord knows that some of us have been moving a good while. We have sent our children ahead, we have sent many of our valuables ahead, sent many treasures ahead. We can not go yet There is work for us to do, but after awhile 1t will be toward night, and we will be very tired. and then we will start for our new home. and those who have gone ahead of us. they will see our approach, and they will come down the lane to meet us, and they will have much to tell us of what they have discovered In the house of many mansions" and of how large the rooms are and of how bright the fountains. And then. the last load unloaded. the table will be spread. and our celestial neighbors will come in to sit down with our reunited families. and the chalices will be full, not with The wine that sweats in the vat of earthly intoxication, but with 'the new wine of the kingdom" And there for the first time we will realize what fools we were on earth when we feared to die, since death has turned out only to be the moving from a smaller house into a larger one and the exchange of pauper's hut for princes castle and the going up stairs from a miserable kitchen to a glorious parlor. O house of God not made with hands, eternal in the heavens!

TURKISH IMBROGLIO.
DRASTIC MEASURES NOT coNTEM. PLATED BY ADMINISTRATION.
We'll Satisfied With Concessions AL ready Made by the Porte-suitan VIII Not He tnduly Pressed to Pay ment of Ind demnItIes.

ment of IndemnitIes.
 Naval coercicn of Turkey to obatin a
 settlement of the American missionary
 claims is not contemplated by the ud-
 ministration.
 Tins statement is made upon high au.
 thority. Drastic mcasurSs against the
 Turk have been urged by former Minis. ter Angell, by politicians on behalf ot
 missionaries and by ministers of the gos
 pei, but the president and Secretary Hay
 have not considered their suggestions. The administration is well satisfied
 with the concessions made by the sublime
 porte, and, while it is anxious chat the
 sultan shall keep his promise to pay the claims, it feels that he has already been
 considerate of this government in per
 hitting the reconstruction of the Ameri- can mission in Harpoot and in the ex-
 tension of Roberts college in Constaa- tinDple.
 It is authoritatively stated that the latest note presented to the porte by Mir. Griscom, the American charge d'affaires, is not an ultnlatum. but is merely rep2-
 tition of the demand for settlement. There is no disposition in the state department to unduly hasten the porte's
 answer. While an evasive reply is ex- pected an official said that the govern mcnt would calmly aWalt the outcome, believing that it would be satisfactory
 to Turkey as well as the United States.
 This official said the president contem- plated only as a remote possibility the
 severance of diplomatic relations, and this possibility hsd almost entirely dis appeared as result of the concessions the sultan has already made. IL is likely from all that can be learn | ed that the extent of the expression of | displeasure hy this government at the continued failure of the porte to pay | the claims will be the maintenance of n | charge d'affaires in Constantinople. Min | ister Straus is not expected to return. and until the claims are settled it is not proposed that any minister shall be sent | to Turkey.
 The conclusion of the administration | not to adopt the suggestions that this | government make naval demonstration | in Turkish waters is undoubtedly due to | the knowledge that Europe would resent | the entrance of the United States into | the Turkish question.

So, when my husband had boils and carbuncles urged him to take Hoods and the re- suit was that when he had used but one bottle the boils had nearly all dis appeared. He continued the use of the medicine and after taking two bottles he was completely cured, and, as he expressed it, felt as if he was on earth for the second time. He has never had any boils since. We take Hoods as spring medicine and gladly recommend it." MRs. A. E. STAYsA, Yonkers, N. Y.

that the State Board of Educa-

school books between the retail
dealers and the purchasers of the
books for their children, fixing
the price at which the retailer
shall sell them. Heretofore the
Board have construed the law
to mean for them to regulate the
price between the publishing
houses and the retail merchants
which they have done in the past,
leaving the purchasers OF the
books completely at the mercy
of the retailer to charge what
ever profits he wished. This is a
