A Compromise BIII.

Washington, April 23.-The confer
ence committees of the senate and
house have reached an agreement on
the Chinese exclusion bill. The agree
ment is upon all but one feature Of
the measure. Under the agreement
the senate substitute becomes the eX-
clusion measure, but the house con-
ferees have secured concession
specifically re-enacting sections to
IA of the exclusion act of September
13, 1883. The point still open is as
to extending the exclusion indefinite
ly after May next. The house bill
extends the prohibition indefinitely,
but the senate limits it until new
treaty is made. The house conferees
are insisting on taking out the refer
ence to n new treaty so that there
will be no limit of time to exclusion.

His Suhterfune-

The patient was very talkative, and
the doctor thought the consultation
would never end. Finally he requested
the lady to put out her tongue, and
silence reigned while the doctor went
on writing. When he had finished the
prescription he handed it to her, and,
reaching for his hat, started for the
door.
"But, DOCTOR" reproachfully ex.
claimed the lady, "you have not looked
at my tongue yeti"
THAT is all right" calmly responded
the doctor, 81 only wanted to finish the
prescription."-N. Y. Times.

The committee then adjourned until
Tuesday. April 30, on which day Gen.
Macarthur will again be heard.
Grover Flint, of Cambridge, Mass,
who served as first lieutenant in the
Thirty-fifth volunteer infantry, was
the first witness Monday, and testified
that early in May, 1900, he had been n
witness to the water cure, as admin
istered to the natives by the Maccabebe
scouts and that this was done to get
information as TO the whereabouts of
their guns. The guns were delivered.
The following day some men of his
own regiment applied the cure, but
their act was without the authority
of their commanding officers. The
Maccabebes at the time referred to
were not under command of COM
pissioned officer, but under SER
geant of the United States army.
Flint had been, he, said, witness to
at least 20 cases of water cure. He
never had, seen any one die as a re-
suit of the cure, but had seen n hos
pital cerps man working on a native
who had been rendered unconscious.
1t also had been reported to him
that one Filipino died from the ef-
fects of the water cure.

The Dangerous Game Of Chess.

The death of Minneapolis mer-
chant from aDopleXy caused by bout
at chess calls attention anew to the
danger of games which demand too
close mental effort. A very large
number of the masters of chess in
particular have died insane, and the
stress which menaces the nervous
with arrangement must in fullbodied
amateurs past middle age aggrevate
an apoplectic tendency.
The advantage of games involving
exercise is shown in contrast by bill
liards. In spite of the bad air in
which the game is played. it is ben
efcial rather than otherwise, though
inferior to golf, which, with its open
air conditions. is we'll adapted to the
needs Of men of sedentary habits, if
not overdone, as too often it is.
Expert players of chess and other
games of concentration. like whist,
pride themselves upon the intellect
ual" character of their diversions.
But for men engaged in absorbing
daily pursuits it is not desirable to
prolong the strain into the night by
battle of keen wits over a game
board Perhaps in his fondness for
the theatre. even for foolish farces
and music-hall drivel, the New York
business man obeys a healthy i'm
pulse. 1t is well not to work too hard
