part of the session was devoted to
eulogies upon the life and public SER
vices Of the late Senator Gear of Iowa.
In the Senate.
Washington, Jan. 20. - The senate
turned from the grind of appropria-
lions yesterday to listen to speech
which partoolk of the character of an
Grafton from Senator Towne of Min
nesota. Since he entered the senate q
few weeks ago on appointment of Gov.
Lind, the young Minnesotan has had
little opportunity to display his tall
ents. AS his reputation as an orator
had preceded him there was much in
terest in his speech, which was in adj
vocaoy of his resolution for cessa-
ton of hostilities in the Philippines.
The floor was crowded with senators
and members Of the house of repre-
senta tives, the latter including Repre-
sentatives Iittlefield, Mccall, Cooper
and others, who have been prominent
in insu!ar legislation. The galleries,
public and private, were cowded to
OVERLOOKING. The speech abounded in
apostrophes to liberty and patriotism
and scathing and scornful arraign-
ment Of the policy by which the Fill
5pinos were being annihilated.
Immediately following Mr.. Towne's
speech the credentials of his successor,
Mr.. Clapp of Minnesota, were present
ed, and after being sworn in the new
senator took his seat and Mr.. Towne
retired. !, The rest of the day was de-
voted to the Indian appropriation bin.
the discussion turning on irrigation
and little progress being made.
I'm the House.
The major portion Of the day in the
house was occupied in the transaction
of District of Columbia business. The
bill to revise and codify the postal
laws which has been under considera-
ton at intervals for ten days was
finally passed. The most interesting
feature of the day was an attempt to
secure a vote upon the senate bill to
appoint a commission to consider and
adjudicate the claims Of United States
citizens against Spain arising out OF
the war with Spain which this gov
eminent assumed by the treaty Of
Paris. The matter was settled tens
forarlly by postponing8 consideration
Of the bill until next Monday. e

KEENE SIGNS SHAW.
Jockey Will Get Over $4,000 For
Next Years Services.

New York Nov. 9-Jockey VIM. Shaw
will ride for James r. Keene next year
at the largest salary ever paid by an
owner as a retainer in this country.
What the salary is has not been made
known, but that it is over $4,000 is
assured, as Captain S. s Brown offered
that much for the services of Shaw some
time ago. and it was refused
That Shaw is the best rider in the
east this year goes without saying. Some
of his opponents are pressing him very
close for the honor, but there is a steadi-
ness about Shaw which has shown that
he is the peer among the jockeys in the
east Shaw heads the list of winning
jockeys by a good majority for this
season, and has shown his ability more
than once by winning on the second and
even third best horses.
There is a great demand for good
jockeys for the season of 1902, fabulous
prices having been offered for the best
boys, and there are few that have not
very few of the best remain all the
larger stables having one or more boys
engaged Mr.. Whitney will have Turner
and two or three more riders at his COM
mand- Mr.. Keene will have Shaw, and,
possibly, another, while Mr.. Feather
stone retains O'Connor and J. B. Hag-
gin pays $4,000 for the second call upon
Wonderly. Shaw having signed with
Keene would invite the idea that Spen-
Ger has not been called upon for re-
engagement with Keene.
John E. Madden and Clarence Mackay
will probably contract for second call
on the services of some of the crack
Jockeys

A COSTLY BATH
THE UNENVIABLE SEQUEL
TO A DIP IN THE LAKE.
how a woman From Iowa Took Summer
Outing, and the Disastrous Re-
suits Which Followed

An interesting story comes from the
little town of Manning, CarroH Coz
iowa The principle figure In It's Is MIS-
Bertha Addison. who is employed as
domestic in one of the well-to-do homes
of that place. She was one OF a party
of young women who went UP TO storm
lake for an outing and while there they
took dip in the cool waves OF that
pretty body of water. The day was fine
and Mrs. Addison stayed in long
while, so long that when she came out
she was taken with a chill me next
morning she found herself so stiff in the
Joints that she could hardly move.
aIt was a costly bath for me- she
continues. TT brought on an attack OF
muscular rheumatism which caused me
intense pain every time u moved But
this was not all Ny stomach became
form nausea Every time ate any
meat or anything heavy it made me
V0mit. My kidneys also bothered me
great deal and altogether l. was very
miserable. All the time I was getting
worse. Ny knees swelled so that |
could hardly walk the stiffness settled
In my shoulders so that could not raise
my arms to feed or dress myselt ana
my suffering was beyond description.
For something over year endured
these fortunes until my mother ADVISED
me to use DR.. Williams Pink Pills Tor
Pale People. I took three boxes with
the result that now am a stout healthy
woman with no aches or pains. My
stomach and kidneys are all right now,
too and it is all due to Dr. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People
The cure of the sexerest cases of rheu-
matisrn by DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People has occurred all over the
land and their power in ordinary cases
is proportionately greater. These mar
velous vegetable pills go directly to the
seat of the trouble and exert a powerful
influence in purifying and enriching the
blood by eliminating poisonous elements
and renewing health-giving forces
They are specific not only for rheu-
matisn but for all ailments arising from
a disordered condition of the blood or
shattered nerves. such as locomotor
ataxia, partial paralysis, St Vitus'
dance, sciatica, neuralgia, nervous head
ache. the after-effects of the grip, palpi-
tation of the heart, pale and sallow
compilations and all forms of weakness
either in male or female

People are sold only in boxes at fifty
cents a box or six boxes for two dollars

Goodland Bank Enlarges.

The Goodland City State bank wants
to do a larger business than it's pres
ent capital stock will allow, and it has
filed an amendment to it's charter to
increase its capital stock from $40, 900
to s25 600. A state bank is restricted by
law from loaning more than Is per cent
of the amount of it's capital stock to one
individual, and in the cattle districts
especially banks wish to loan more than
this where they have only a small cap
ital and large deposits. Bank Commits
sioner Albaugh says this fact is respon-
sible for numerous increases in the cap
ita1 of state banks.

One Well known catarrh- specialist, as

on Stuarts Catarrh Tablets in treating

GROSSER HAS ENOUGH.
Dickinson Representative May Not
Stand For Reelection.

Emil Grosser, of Enterprise, who has
represented Dickinson county in the
last two sessions of the Legislature, is
doubtful about standing for a re-elec-

a member of the legislature receives for
his services.
''It is a lot of bother, and a mans ex-
penses while attending the legislature
are as much or more than his salary
comes to- said Mr.. Grosser today

from furnishing free text books to
children of the first four grades of the

ton was granted some time ago at the
instance of local Catholic educators.
