A FIGHT IN THE SENATE.
Consequence Of the Latter diving
the Lie to the Former.

Washington, Feb. 24.-The senate
on Saturday listened to the farewell
address of Washington, which was
read by Senator Burrows, Of Michi-
gan. Senator Lodge, Of Massachu-
sets then presented a memorial for
q constitutional amendment to enable
congress to enact laws regarding the
hours of labor in the various states.
When the routine business was con-
cluded Senator Gilman, OF South
Carolina, resumed his speech in oppo-
sition to the pending Philippine tariff
bill, in the course of which he made
some remarks rejecting on his col
league, Senator McLaurin. McLaurin
arose and said that Tillman's state.
ment regarding him was "willful
and deliberate and malicious lie."
Tillman juwped over chairs and
struck McLaurin in the face. A
vicious encounter ensued. Both men
clinched and struck frantically at each
other whem Assistant Sergeant-at-
Arms Layton sprang between them
and several senators seized the men
and parted them.
Senator Foraker, of Ohio, immedi.
ately moved an executive session.
During the short executive session
which followed both Tillman and Me-
Laurin made apologies. Open session
was afterwards resumed when both
senators took the floor one after the
other and made lengthy apologies.
In the afternoon Senator Burton, Of
Kansas, took Senator Tillman to task
for refectng on Gen. Funston in his
statement that cruelties were prac-
ticed on Filipinos by soldiers under
the Kansas general. The senate had
an evening session, but the attend
ance was scant.

TlLLMAN- M'LAURIN BOUT.


Washington, Feb. 94.-The topic Of
chief interest in senatorial circles yes
terday, and in fact everywhere in off,
rial Washington, was the fight in the
senate Saturday between Senators
Tillman and McLaurin, Of South Caro-.
lima. There have been a number OF
conferences among senators as to
what should be done to preserve the
dignity of the senate and to manifest
Its sentiment with reference to the
two senators who violated its tradi-
tions. While no plan of procedure
has been agreed upon, it is learned
that there will be very deliberate &C.
ton and it is said to be more than
likely that it will be not less than
30 days before the South Carolina
senators are restored to their full
power as senator's, this deliberation
on their case being in the nature Of a
punishment since they will not be al
lowed to address the senate or vote
until no longer in contempt Of the
senate.
Senator Burrows is chairman of the
committee/on privileges and elections
and last night he said that in adj
vance of any meeting of the commit
tee he could not say what would be
done, but, he added, that the matter
is of such serious import that it must
receive careful consideration 1t will
be day or two before the commit
tee meets to make up the resolution
referred to it by the senate.
1t is understood the conferences
among senator's have shown the ex-
istence of a considerable sentiment
that the apologies made by the South
Carolina senator's are not deemed
sufficient and that the committee will
require other and more ample apollo
gies to be submitted to it in writing,
with the assurance that such apollo
gies will be made to the senate be-
fore "a report will be made to the eff
feet that the senators have sufficient
ly purged themselves of the contempt
of which the senate has adjudged
them guilty.

CANCELLED THE INVITATION.
President Roosevelt Stops Senator Tillman
from Attending the Dinner to Prince
Henry at the White House.

Washington, Feb. o5.--The president
yesterday withdrew his invitation ex.
tended to Senator Tillman, of South
Carolina, to attend the dinner given
last night in honor of Prince Henry
of Prussia at the white house. This
action on the part of the president
was made necessary from the fact
that owing to occurrences on the
floor of the senate last Saturday the
senator from South Carolina was de-
clared in contempt of the senate.
The invitation was extended to Mr..
Tilllnan owing to the fact that he is
the ranking minority member of the
naval affairs committee. There was
u sensational sequel to the decision
of the president to eliminate Senator
'rillman from the list of dinner
guests. The president sent for SEN
ator Cockrell, of Missouri, and asked
him as a friend and democratic col
league of Mr.. Tillman to urge the pro-
priety of Withdrawing his acceptance
of the dinner invitation. Senator
Cockrell accepted the commission
and later telephoned the president
that Mr.. Tillman absolutely refused
to withdraw his acceptance, in re-
spouse to the presidents suggestion.
The president Immediately cancelled
the invitation in a note which he
dispatched directly to Senator Till
man shortly before noon.

A CENSUS BULLETIN.
Report on Domestic Animals In the
Country on June I, 1900.
Less SHEEP EVERYWHERE But WEST
Iowa Leads States In the Value Of Its Live
Stock, While Texas Ranks Sec0nd-Value
of Domestic Animals In the United
States, 03,2OO,OOO,OOO.

Washington, Feb. 21.-The census
bureau, in report on domestic ami
mails, fowls and bees in the United
States on June 1, 1900, announces
that all the domestic animals in the
United States have probable value
of at least $3,20O,0OO,000. OF this
amount the value of the animals on
farms and ranges constitute over SO
per cent. and those on farms Z per
cent. The census received no reports
on value of animals, but estimates it
at $215, 192,92S. The total value of all
domestic animals on farms and ranges
was $2,9S1054115, against $2,20S, 767,-
513 in 1890. There was a gain in all
parts Of the country except in the
north Atlantic states, where there
was decrease of horses, sheep and
swine, making q total decrease of 3
per cent in value
The live stock on farms in the
United States follows: Calves, 49,
3SO,3s3; steers, 1888, 1872; bulls, l.
1885,. heifers, 7.1S2,0l4; cows kept
for milk, 11,5s3,253; colts, 1,313,476;
horses, 1882 ,664 mules, 3,271,6o7
asses and burros, $1,000; sheep, 61,-
6O5,S11; swine, 62,S76,1OS; goats, L.
S71,252.
Since 1890 the number of sheep de-
creased everywhere except the west.
The increase there was more than
sufficient to balance the loss else
where and made the number Of wool
bearing sheep for the nation II per
cent. greater than in 1890.
The number Of horses on farms in
creased except in the north Atlantic
states. The gain over the census of
1890 was 20 per cent. il the colts are
included with the totals Of 1900 and
10 per cent. II excluded.
The mules on farms increased gen.
orally. The dairy cows on farms and
ranges in 1900 numbered per cent.
more than the mich cows reported
in 1890. Under the terms mich cows
were included in 1890 more cows than
those reported in 1900 as COWS kept
for milk" or dairy cows The real
gain, therefore, !. Is approximately 25
per cent.
Neat cattle other than dairy cows
increased generally. Swine increased
Q per cent, although there was a
slight decrease in the north Atlantic
division. In the south Atlantic divi-
sion the value of domestic animals in
creased IA per cent. to $lS4,152,273 in
1900. In the north central division
the value increased ~ per cent. to
1889 ,306,ts7. In the south central
the increase was 10 per cent. to $685.
255,6s7 and in the western 93 per cent.
to 1851, 453,353.
Iowa leads all the states in the to-
tai value of its live stock, while Texas
ranks second, The former has an in
vestment in live stock of s27l ,s44,034
and the latter has 1926, ,434. Texas,
however, has the greatest number of
neat cattle, mules and goats, but the
average value of these and other ami
mails being less than in Iowa, the pre-
eminence in value rests with the lat
ter named state.

Appendicitis is Not New.

"Why is it, asked man of
physician, that so many people are
suffering these days with appendicitis
and have to be operated upon, when
there was formerly nothing of the
kind in existence?"
MY young frirnd," the doctor an
swered, this disease has been in the
world ever since Adam was-perhaps
that story of his losing RIB may
have arisen because he was operated
on for appendicitis. When your grand
father was boy his neighbors had it
all around him, and so they did when
you were a boy. But they called it
Inflammation of the bowels, stomach
ache, acute indigestion, liver trouble
or something of the sort. The patient
got well or he died, but no one ever
opened him when living to see what
the matter was. Perhaps it is as well
that they did not, for much of the
surgery of those days was more dan
gerous than any disease"

A Graceful Visiting Gown.

A particularly graceful visiting gown
is of a soft shade of blue cloth. The
yoke and the lower part of the sleeves
are of buff embroidered chiffon, while
the panel front of the skirt, the berthe
and the extensions from the yoke to
the belt are appliqued with graceful
scrolls for which Corticelli silk is en-
ployed. The lower part of the skirt is
ornamented with several wide tucls.
This model fully emphasizes the fact
that the tablier front is to be well
represented among the new gowns,
not alone those intended for afternoon
but for evening wear as we'll. 1t will
perhaps interest our readers to know
of recently imported skirt in which
the tablier front was pre-eminent. 1t

Modes of Trimming.

favorite trimming is broad,
double fold put on as tuck, or, when
slightly gatheged, a founce. From one
to five of these, according to their
width, frequently adorn skirts, where
they are arranged in zig-zag move
ment in preference to straight line.
Sometimes they are of the same color
and material as the costume, at 9TH
ers contrasting both IN color and tex
tile, in which case either silk or vel
vet is employed.
Another effective trimming consists
of very heavy description of lace or
extremely large design, through which
black velvet of the very narrowest
width u is passed so as to follow the
frame and contours of the design. The
same idea is also carried out with col
ored velvet of two or three different
colors, and is very decorative. This
is more an adornment for cloaks and
bodices than skirts, on account of the
