Tilden Citizen: Much Indignation
was caused throughout Tilden Wednes.
by the appearance Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Kelleher, who brought their child to
town for medical treatment. This is
the case which in another column is re-
ferred to az having the appearance of
smallpox. Later in the day the child
was seen at its home by a Tilden physi.
clan in company with q Newman Grove
doctor who has been attending smallpox
patients in and near the latter named
town. These medical men both posi-
lively pronounced the case to be small
pox. Fortunately for the community
the disease has passed the stage when
the danger Of infection is greatest, but
this cannot be used az an excuse for
reckless exposure. Any individual who
in such matters displays suchlappalling
ignorance ought to find a temporary
habitation either in q lunatic asylum or
the state penitentiary.
Yesterday exemplifed March weather
to a degree that should be satisfactory
to every person who wants to get his
moneys worth. The day opened out
with the mercury IN the neig borhood
Of the sos, the sun shining warm and
bright and a gentle breeze blowing
from the south. 1t was n beautiful
morning and led ones thoughts to
spring housekeeping and making
gardens. Toward noon the wind veered
around to the north and a bank of clouds
appeared above the horizon. After this
phase Of weather had been exhibited
for a few bours, rain commenced to
fall, which did not continue very long
until it turned into snow. Only half
an inch Of this article was furnished,
but it was blown furiously across the
country by the high wind. Fortunately
at no time did the temperature get very
cold, the lowest point recorded being 81
above zero, so that while the storm has
been disagreeable it will not prove dis,
astrous to live stock. No snow has
fallen today, but the wind has kept in
good practice. The indications are for
fair and better weather tonight and to.
morrow.

About two years ago her husband
passed away and in due course Of time
his brother, the late David Wilson,
made proposals of marriage, but to
this her daughter seriously objected
On account of the adverse condition of
affairs Mrs. Wilson let the matter rest
for the time being.
Less than year ago her daughter
passed away and the mother was left
alone in the world. After her death
Mrs Wilson entertained the proposals
of marriage and a few days ago the
wedding was held While they were
arranging their new home in Chicago,
where he was employed, pneumonia
seized the bridegroom and in less than
a week he passed away. Mrs. Will

A typical Turkish humorist was Kho-
ia Nasreddin Effendi. who lived in the
fourteenth century. Of him this story
is told:
Zone Friday the khoja's fellow vii
layers insisted on his preaching a SER
mon in the mosque. which he had new
err done. not having any oratorical
gifts. He mounted the pulpit sorely
against his will and. looking around at
the congregation, asked in despair. oh,
true believers. do you know what am
going to say to you? They naturally
replied. No We'll, | am sure | don't,
he said and hurriedly left the mosque.
The congregation were, however, deter
mined to have their sermon and next
Friday forced him again into the pull
pit. When he again put the same ques-
ton, they replied by agreement, Yes
oh. then he said if you know
needn't tell you and again escaped.
On the third Friday the villagers made
what they thought must be successful
plan. They got the khoja into the pull
pit and when he asked what had now
become his usual question replied,
Some of us know and some of us
don't Then replied the khoja. let
those OF you who know tell those who
don't After this the congregation re-

in the House.
Washington, Feb S.-The senate
yesterday passed the pension appro-
priation bill without debate 1t ap-
propriates $144 100000. The ship sub
sidy bill occupied the remainder of the
day and night session. Adjourned at
II D. m. The feature was the repeat
ed protests of Teller and jones
against night sessions.
The postoffice appropriation BILL de-
bate on which consumed almost an en-
tire week in the house, was passed yes
! terday. Grosvenor and Richardson
were appointed tellers on the part Of
the house to count the electoral vote.
The diplomatic and consular appropri-
alton was taken up, but no action
reached.
Washington, Feb. 9.-An Intellectual
effort was made in the senate yester-
day to secure an agreement upon a
time for a, final vote upon the shipping
bill, which was laid aside informally
and the naval appropriation cons;d
cred without action. An executive SEES
sion was held, but no night session.
The house passed 1S4 private pen
sion bills and a general pension bill
to restore to the pension rolls widows
Of soldiers of the rebellion who subse-
Quently married and became widowed
or divorced, provided they were mar
ried before the close of the rebellion

labor for support.
Washington, Feb. 11.-During al
most the entire session of Saturday the
senate had under cOnsiderat ton the

Pennsylvania concluded the session.
The agricultural appropriation was re-
ported.
Consideration of the diplomatic and
consular appropriation bill in the
house developed something of a sensa-
ton when Brown of Ohio, standing in
the center of the Republican side of
! the chamber, made a speech strongly
condemning a colonial policy and urg-
| ing that congress should at once give
assurance to the Filipinos that the
| purpose of the United States was to
give them independence. He was ap-
plauded by both Republicans and
| Democrats. The diplomatic bill was
laid aside to permit eulOgies upon the
late Representatives DAILY, of New Jer-
sey, and Wise, of Virginia.
Washington, Feb. 12.-The senate
yesterday passed the naval appropria-
| ton and then considered the ship sub
! sidy bill for the remainder of the day.
| Two executive sessions were held and
the military nominations of General
Miles, Young and Macarthur, and Col
onel Chaffee were confirmed. A bill
| for an additional district judge for Illi-
nOis was passed.
ne house disagreed with the SEN
