 Determined to fathom the mystery, Dray fearlessly pursued the woman. In relating his experience he stated that he pursued the figure for half a mile, when it mysteriously disap- peared in Frazer's woods. With cold beads of perspiration on his brow Dray returned to the snlithy and re lated his experience to Hawks.

The hedgehog was very careful, however, not to cut the tail off.

Rope Choloed Him and Consequently Pat Declined to Finish a Job
 of Suicide

Pat had come over to America with the expectation of fnding"money lying around loose, only waiting for some one to pick it up. Of course, says the New York Sun, this was long ago. Pat had soon become disillusioned and was always glad to get hold of odd jobs which would net him a little something to help him keep body and soul to- gether. Finally, becoming tired of the struggle, he decided to end it all, and was industriously tying a rope around his waist when his landlord happened in on him. After watching him curi- ously for a few minutes, he asked:
 .'What's up. Pat? What are you try ing to do?'' :.

SENSATIONAL SPEECH IN HOUSE
KENTUCKY CONGRESSMAN DE-
NOUNCES WHAT HE CALLS
''FLUNkYISM."
ATTACK ON MODERN DIPLOMACY
SECRETARY HAY Is ROASTED AND
PAUNCEFOTE OBJECTED
TO.

Washington, Feb. 15.-The monotony
of a private pension day of the house
was enlivened yesterday by very SEN
sational speech by Mr.. Wheeler Of
Kentucky in denunciation of what he
demo minated "funkeyism' to foreign
countries. He took the recent state
ments en:anating from continental cab
tnets regarding the attitude of Great
Britain during the Spanish war as a
text for wholesale attack upon the
trend of our recent diplomacy. He Sc
verely scored Secretary Hay and de-
clared that if Lord Pauncefote had
sought as was alleged, to circumvent
us during the war of 1898, the sooner
he was shipped across the seas, the
better, He also criticised the president
for his reported intention to send his
daughter to the coronation of King
Edward, and protested against the Of
ticial reception Of Prince Henry. His
speech aroused the house to a high
pitch of excitement and elected from
Mr.. BoEtelle Of Illinois a spirited de-
tense OF Secretary Hay, whom he eulo-
gized in high terms. Several other
members on the Republican side took
hand, and later in the afternoon Mr..
Grosvenor of Ohio took Mr.. Wheeler to
task TO- his 'inopportune protest." and
rehearsed the history Of the visit Of the
prince of Wales to this country in
1860 and his reception by President
Buchanan. During the day 125 private
pension bills We're passed in thirty
seven minutes.
In the Senate.
A little furry was created in the
senate yesterday over the employment,
since the beginning Of the session, Of a
score or more of extra clerks and mes
Sengers to the committees. The charges
of extravaganza made induced the
reference of the whole subject Of cler-
zeal employment to a committee for
investigation and report.
The bill creating a prominent census
Office was under consideration for a
time but was not disposed of finally.
