Memorial to n. ID. Blac more.

The English fund for the memorial to
r. D. Blackmore, author of "Lorna
Doone," had reached the sum of $1,000
late in December, and more contribu-
tons were at that time expected from
Blackmore's many readers in America.
The fund will be devoted to the cree
ton of tablet upon the interior walls
Of Exeter cathedral, says Harper's Lit
erary Gossip. 1t is fitting that the
world should perpetuate the memory
of the author of a book like Lorna

ways in demand year after year. One

book is that which has the beautiful

new preparation for the cure of ca tarrh has attracted much attention in the past few months and has met with great favor from the medical profession not only because 1t is remarkably successful in the cure of catarrh. but also because 1t is not secret patent medicine; any one using it knows just what he Is talk ing into his system.
 It is composed of blood root which acts on the blood and mucous membrane, hy- drastin for same purpose to clear the mucus from head and throat and red gum of eucalyptus tree to destroy ca tarrhal germs in the blood.
 All of these antiseptic remedies are combined in the form of a pleasant tasting tablet or lozenge, and are sold by druggists under name of Stuart's Ca tarrh Tablets, and many recent tests in chlorine catarrh cases have established its merit beyond question.
 Dr. Sebring states that he has discard ed inhalers, sprays and washes and de- pends entirely upon Stuart's Catarrh Tab lets in treating nasal catarrh. He says: 'I have ha. patients who had lost the sense of smell entirely, and whose hear ing was also impaired from nasal ca tarrh, recover completely after few weeks use of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets. I have been equally successful with the remedy in catarrh of the throat and catarrh of stomach. I can only explain it on the principle that catarrh is a constitutional disease, and that the an- tiseptic properties in these tablets drive the catarrhal poison completely out of the system
 Dr. Odell says, have cured many cases of catarrh of stomach in past four months by the use of Stuart's Tablets alone with out the use of any other remedy and without dieting. The tablets are especial ly useful in nasal catarrh and catarrh of the throat. clearing the membranes and overcoming the continual hawking, cough ing and expectorating. so disgusting and annoying to catarrh sufferers.

was a division of the two branches of the question. The first vote was taken on the declaration that the two Senators were in contempt and it prevailed bv a unanimous vote-61 to 0, on a roll call. The rest of the resolution, referring the matter to the committee on privileges and elections was adopted without a roll call. Both the South Carolina Senators remained in their seats during the entire secret session, but neither made an att tempt to address the Senate
 After the secret session the Senate at 5;15 resumed business in open session. Evidence was abundant that the secret session had been more or less exciting As soon as order could be restored Mir Blackburn said as the seal of secrecy had been removed from the secret ses sion he was at liberty to say that dur ing that session he had made a statement to the Senate of what the Senator from South Carolina (Tillman) was prepared and pleased to say to the Senate He ex- plained that both Senators from South Carolina had been declared by the Sen ate to be in contempt He wanted the chair to rule upon whether any statement could be made to the Senate in open session by either of the Senators while they were in contempt of the Senate.
 Mir Foraker interrupted to suggest that unanimous consent be given to the Senators to make their statements.
 Mir. Blackburn declined to hear for a moment any suggestion that unaimous consent be given them to address the Senate. What he wanted to know was if Senators in contempt could address the

 Instantly McLaurin's right arm shot out the blow landing upon Tillman's face, apparently upon the nose. Aagain Till man struck out frantically, this time with his left hand. The blow did not land upon McLaurin Then followed a wild yscrimmage, both Senators clutching at each other madly.
 Senators Warren and Scott, both of whom are powerful men, rushed toward the combatants to separate them, Assis- tant Sergeant -at-Arms Layton sprang over desks in his effort to reach the bel ligerent Senators.
 Blow Struck Layton.
 Just as he seized McLaurin Tillman aimed a left handed blow at his colleague which struck MT. Layton in the face. Fortunately the blow was glancing and did no special harm MT. Layton tore them apart Both Senators were still striking wildly at each other, some of the blows landing upon MT Layton.

EMBROIDERY MERIT
Of a New Catarrh Cure.

Physicians are slow to take up new and untried remedies. until their value has been established by actual experi- ment, and they are naturally skeptical of the many new preparations constantly appearing and of which extravagant clims are made.
 The most liberal and enlighted physi- clans are always ready however, to make a fair trial of any new specific and get at its true medical value.

Both Willing to Apologize.

MT. Blackman and other Senators stated that the two South Carolina Senators were willing to apologize and thus purge themselves of the cont empt, and in view of this statement MT. Hoar withdrew the portion of his amendment providing for their commitment.
 MT. Foraler then accepted the amend ment of MT. Hoar, and it was embodied in the resolution. Before the vote was taken a number of Senators spoke and there was no exception to the opinions as to the gravity and seriousness of the of fense. Among the Senators who thus de- livered themselves were Messrs. Telle Fairbanks, Hanna, Blackburn and Spooner. Mir. Teller suggested that grave as should be the encounter it was not so grave as the charge of misconduct made against McLaurin. and he though, that any investigation undertaken should extend to that matter. MT. Teller while deprecating the occurrence, said that it was not unprecedented that there had been similar affairs on the floor of the Senate. and instanced. among others, the encounter between Senators Benton and Foote, He suggested that MT Spooner was not entirely blameless for today's oc- currence, because by his interrogatories he had provoked Mir. Tillman to make eN- plicitly the charges which had been but vaguely made before in the Senate

TllIaman Apologies First.

Amid breathless silence MT. Tillman arose to address the Senate His calm manner gave no indication of the tenn pestuous scene in which he had been one of the principal actors a short time be- fore. He spoke deliberately, and every one of the hundreds of auditors leaned forward eagerly to catch his words. He said:
 MT. President: I have always es- teemed it high honor and privilege to be a member of this body. I had never had any legislative experience when came here and my previous service as Governor of South Carolina for years had unftted me in a measure to enter this august assembly with that dignity and regard-proper regard I will say for it's traditions and habits and rules that is desirable.
 'I have been here seven years. I have in that time learned to judge men with little more catholicity of spirit than l did when l came here. I have found a great many people here in whose personal integrity and honor and regard for their obligations gentlemen I have impiicit confidence but l have seer so much of partisanship. have seen so much of what l consider slavish submission to party domination that I confess I have felt somewhat at a loss how to judge men who in one aspect appeared to be so high and clean and honorable and in another appeared more or less despicable I say this because of the fact that one of the senators had seen fit to allude to some matters that occurred in the debate this afternoon. I now want to say that so far as any action of mine has caused any senator here or the Senate as a body or the people of the United States to feel that I have been derelict and l have not shown that courtesy and that proper observance of the rules of this body, that I regret it: that I apolo- g1ze for it. I was ready to do that two minutes after I had acted. but under the provocation, which was known to all of you l could not have acted otherwise than I did, and while I apologize to rne Senate and am sorry that it has occurred, I have nothing more to say"
 McLaurin Was Also Calm.

On that point he demanded ruling by the chair The Senator from South Carolina N1lH- man) he continued was willing ana anx- ious to make a statement to the senate and he wanted to know how ne coulo make it. The action of the Senate In oe- olaring Mir. Tillman In contempt was in his judgment, premature.
 Wanted to Give Unanimous Consent.
 Mir Hoar suggested that the senators could address the Senate by unanimous consent or by a motion made 10 give them that privilege for which a majority Of the Senate should vote.
 Mir. Blackburn objected to unanimous consent. maintaining If the senators were accorded the floor they had undoubtedly the right to speak upon any subject.
 'Oh mo- mo-" came protests from all parts of the chamber.
 MT Stewart of Nevada was about to suggest the practice of courts In con tempt cases, but he was interrupted by MT. Blackburn with the statement that the Senate was not court in any sense.
 MT. Aldrich of Rhode Island said there was nothing in the rules of the Senate which covered specifically such viola ton of the order and dignity of the body as had occurred. As both senators had been declared by the government to be Tn contempt, however it was manifest that they could not take the floor except for the express purpose of purging them selves of that contempt. The discussion of this question was quite lengthy and was participated in by MT. Blackburn, MT. Paterson, MT. Foraker and MT. Teller.
 Other senators showed a disposition to discuss the subject, but MT. Frye presi- dent pro tenn. announced that he was ready to rule and said While these two senators are declared to be in contempt, the chair could not recognize either if he should rise and address the chair; but on motion made by any senator that they be heard the chair would recognize the senator making the motion and would hold that the motion was in order. In the ordinary transgression of the rules or violation of order the senator violating 1t must take his chair and he cannot be recognized by the presiding officer again until the senate has relieved him of that | by motion. What will happen after the l two senators have purged themselves, so 1 far as 1t is possible of the contempt, the l chair will be prepared to rule whenever that question is raised
