TWO BODIES ADJOURN
Hot Debate In Senate-- Parti-
san Lines Swept Away and
Dignity Gave Way to
Hiiarity.

Washington, July 2.--When con-
gress adjourned at $3.50 o'clock Tues
day afternoon 1t was with record
of things done which marks this an
eventful session. The session lasted
seven months, and it has been crowded
with important legislative enactments.
The machinery was started early, and
was kent well oiled until the very end.
No stirring incidents marked the
closing days. Several conference re-
ports on important appropriation bills
were agreed to by both branches, and,
these disposed Of, the serious business
ended In the house the unanimous
consent rule prevailed, enabling men,
bers to get through private bills which
had been sijetracked earlier in the
session.
When Speaker Henderson declared
The house adjourned sine die, hun
dred members joined in singing Amer
ica," following the national anthem
with Hes jolly Good Fellow" mean
ing the one-legged speaker.
During the last hours of the senate
session there was tart debate on the
Philippine question, participated in by
Messrs. Carmack, of Tennessee. Spoon
er, of Wisconsin, Culberson, of Texas
McCombs, of Maryland, and Lodge, Of
Massachusetts,.
The conference report on the Phil
ippine government bill was adopted
without any serious opposition, and
them the decks OF the senate
were cleared for resolution provid-
ing for continuance of the investiga-
ton Of the Philippine committee -and
fer a visit to the Philippine islands
by the commission during the present
summer. This started the trouble and
for more than. an hour a battle of
words was waged. Mr.. Spooner de-
livered scathing denunciation of
the minority of. the Philippine commit
tee for what. he declared was an at
tack on the American army. Mr.. Car
mack said there had been no attack
on the army. He said that any fool
could make such charge and that
any parrot could be taught to repeat
IL. The resolution was referred to a
committee, effeetnally killing it.

NOAH'S ARK.
Indians In Alaska Believe They
Have Discovcred

Tacoma, Wash, July 2.-W. A. Reid,
secretary of the Skagway Y. M. c., A.,
has returned from the interior of Alas
ka. where he talked with Indians
whose statements he believes fully con-
firm previous reports that the Indians
of Lower Yukon have discovered an
immense tperified ship ON Porcupine
river near the Arctic circle, north of
Rampant, Alaska. The Indians traced
its dimensions on the ground, indicat-
ing a length of 1900 feet.
They stated that everything connect
ed with the boat was petriiied.
Among the things inside Of it was a
large fafe or chest. The chest was
hollow and could not De broken. The
Indians finally became convinced that
the whole contrivance was something
connected with the Holy Spirit, so
they left it.
Indians familiar with the Bible are
convinced that the ship is none other
than Noah's ark.

"This spring I contracted an aQgra.

and head followed, which persisted In
remaining, notwithstanding ! applied
the usual remedies.
Reading of the merits of Peruna in
the papers, I decided to try it and soon
found that all that has been said of your
medicine in such cases is true.
81 am very pleased with the satisfac-
am entirely well, and consider it most
valuable family medicine"
HENRIETTE G. OLBERG.
Summer colds require prompt treat.
nenf. They are always grave, and
sometimes dangerous. The prompt.
ness and surety with which Peruna
acts In these cases has saved many
lives. A large dose of Peruna should
be taken at the first appearance of cold
in summer, followed by small and Oft
repeated doses. There is no other rem
edy that medical science can furnish, SO
reliable and quick in its action as Peruna.

Chrlstmas' Stories Of
Money Transactions
WAS NO FOUNDATION
To Bribery Charges Over Pur-
chase Of West Indies, Says
Special Com mittee Of
Congress.

Washington. July 2.-Chairman
Dalzell, OF the special committee Of
the house Of representatives, which in
vestigated the charges in connection
with the purchase of the Danish West
Indian islands, yesterday submitted
report Of that committee. After de-
failing the charges of bribery and
showing that Captain Christmas had
repudiated. the alleged report on which
the charges were based, the committee
sums up the results of their investi-
cation as follows:
THAT there Is not the slightest
semblance of evidence that any mem
ber of congress, either directly or in
directly, was offered or received any
bribe, or was paid valuable considera-
tion Of any kind, to vote for or assist
in procuring the proposal, adoption, or
ratification Of a treaty Of sale of the
Danish West Indian islands to the
United States.
There is not the remotest ground
from which to draw an inference or
on which to base a conclusion that
there was any corruption or wrong
doing on the part OF the public officials
OF the United States in connection
with the negotiations for the purchase
and sale of the Danish West Indian
islands.
"It is plain beyond peradventure
that the bribery alleged in the re-
port could have existed nowhere save
in the imagination Of Christmas, since
the whole burden Of his story is that
he had no money. 1t Is in evidence
that he had to borrow in order to pay
his passage home from this country"
