57TH CONGRESS-.
Senate Thinks Strike Commits
sioners Should Have $4,000.
The Statehood Bill Will Come Up,
Monday, for Consideration.
House Makes Change in Handling
Contested Election Cases.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE Senate,
late this afternoon, passed, with sew
eral amendments, the bill fixing the
compensation of the anthracite coal
strike commission and it now goes to
conference. The sentiment of the Sem
ate was strongly in favor of allowing
the members of the commission who
are not in the civil or military SER
vice of the government a lump sum
for their service, and after consider
able debate. $4,000 was settled upon as
the proper amount, taking the matter
out of the hands of the President, as
the bill originally provided.
Several other amendments to the
bill were adopted, fixing the expenses
of the commissioners and the assist
ant recorders at SO per day instead
of SIS and leaving the question of the
amount of salary to the assistant re-
cOrders and employees to the commits
sion. The name of the commission was
changed to Anthracite Coal Strike
Arbitration"
An amendment offered by Mr.. Daniel.
Va. intended to prohibit officers in
the civil or military branches of the
government from serving on commits
sions or performing duties other than
called for by law, provoked a long dis
cussion. and in response to the appeals
of Mr.. Allison and Mr.. HOar, finally
was withdrawn.
At o'clock the statehood bill came
up and there was brisk exchange be-
tween Mr.. Quay, who favors the ON
nibus bill. and senators who oppose 1t,
regarding it's consideration. Mr. Quay
and Mr.. Bates said they We're ready to
vote Mr.. Beveridge. Mr.. Lodge, Mr..
Hale and others protested against
pressing the bill so soon after it was
reported and it went over until Mon
day.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Give the roots of trees a deep and
broad bed of soil to start and grow in.
In pruning the grape cut back to the
third bud, as it is usually the first en-
tirely perfect bud produced.
When winds prevail from any direc-
ton. as they usually do, lean the tree a
little in that direction when setting out.
The essentials in making q good gar
den are rich soil. plenty of manure,
good seeds, timely labor and a fair sea
son.
Having the soil in a good filth and
planting in straight rows will save
much labor in cultivating in the gar
den.
One of the best ways of getting rid of
moss and lichens adhering to the bark
of trees is an application of lime white
wash.
In taking trees from a nursery or for
est, preserve all of the roots and fine
rootlets possible Dig out instead of
pulling up the tree.
When the fruit or leaves of any plant
or tree are eaten by insects of any kind,
spraying in good season and sufficient
" often Is the safest and best remedy.
Gladiolus bulbs should be planted in
full sunshine, four or five inches deep
and about one foot apart Good soil,
rather sandy, is best, avoiding manure,
especially if fresh.
