WASHINGTON, January 13.-The
army reorganization bill will continue
to engage the attention of the Senate
at least during the first days of the
present week. The opinion is quite
generally expressed among Senators
that the bill will be acted upon by the
middle Of the week, and even the
critics of the measure join in this
prediction. Many phases of the ques-
ton involved in the army bill remain
to be considered, and the general IN
d~erstanding is that there will still be
no little discussion before the bill can
be disposed of. The speech Of Senator
Plat, of Connecticut, on Friday last,
in defense of the bin on general prin-
ciples will call for replies, and there
are also special features which will
require more or less attention. Among
these are Senator Daniels amendment
concerning the appointment of volun-
teers to offices in the regular army;
the question of the disposition of Off
the provision for the enlistment of
Filipinos in the American army. The
disposal of these questions ~undoubted-
ly will fill the first two or three days
of the week.
Senator Allison intends to call up
the legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation bill when the army bill
is acted on, but whether this and 9TH
er appropriation bills to follow it shall
occupy the exclusive attention of the
Senate SO long as they are on the cal
endar is a question which has not yet
been absolutely determined. The pres
ent indications are, however, that the
appropriation bills will be considered
in advance of all other measures when
ever they are before the Senate.
When there are no appropriation
bills to be taken up, the ship subsidy
bill will be discussed. There are still
numerous speeches to be made upon
this measure, and already there is talk
of night sessions for its consideration
when it is taken up. There is little
in the legislative bill to arouse dis
cussion, but there is a possibility that
Senators hostile to the subsidy bill
may use the appropriation bill for the
purpose of delay.
Next Saturday will be devoted to
eulcgies in memory of the late Senator
Gear.
A programme of miscellaneous mat
tiers will occupy the attention of the
House during the coming week. The
River and Harbor bill, which was de-
bated for three days last week, will
consume Il and possibly two days.
Although the bill was criticized very
severely during the debate last week.
it is in no danger of failure. Most of
the attacks came from members who
were disappointed in what the bill
grants to their localities and the actual
opponents of the measure will be over
whelmed when the final vote is
reached.
The District Of Columbia committee,
which, under the rules, would be en-
titled to tomorrow. will demand a day
later in the week if they give way to
the river and harbor bill tomorrow.
After the latter bill is disposed of the
bill to revise and solidify the postal
laws will be taken up under a special
order. 1t will be followed by the
District of Columbia appropriation
bill, and the latter in turn by the post
office appropriation bill if there is any
remaining time.

In the Pine Country.

A letter received Tuesday morning
by c.. R. Bonde from his son, Peter
Bonde, announces the safe arrival of
the family in the pine country, in
Northern Minnesota. Mr.. Bonde
spent several days at Walker, where
he had intended to make his head
quarters, but was persuaded by friends
to go to Bemidji, where he is at pres
ent located and where he has directed
all mail to be sent. He is highly
pleased with the country, and will no
doubt have fine sport there hunting
and fishing. OF course if there is a
ball game in sight, we would not be
surprised to hear of Peter taking a
hand in. He writes of the invigorat-
ing climate having wonderful effect
on his wife's appetite, and says that
it is enormous. He failed to say any,
thing about his own, but we will take
it for granted that he has not lost any
since leaving home. Bemidji is a
lively place and excursion parties and
tourists are numerous.

A Runaway Accident.

Lake was the victim of runaway last
night. He had driven: down to Will
mar yesterday evening to procure some
extras for a threshing rig, and started
on the return trip about midnight.
Among the extras was a lot of sieves.
When on the western boundary of the
village, opposite S. E. Magnuson's
place, the horse became frightened by
the rattling of the sieves and ran away,
running through three wire fences and
more or less demoralizing the buggy
and harness but, strange to say, not
harming himself or the dryer. Mr..
Wig was compelled to return to town
and remain until this morning in order
to right his rig for the return trip.
