URGES IRRIGATION BILL.
Chicago Man Sets Forth Advantages
That Would Accrue.

Washington. April 25.-William H.
Chadwick. chairman of the %transporta-
ton committee of the board Of trade
of Chicago. has written a letter to Rep
r~esentative Newlands of Nevada, the
author OF the pending irrigation bill,
presenting new reasons why this meas
ure should pass. Mr.. Chadwick holds
that the states lying east and north
east OF the arid lands suffer enormous
loss as a result Of the burning heat
coming from the arid quarters. He
says:
"In behalf of many interests which
will suggest themselves to you from
my Off cial position. | ask to call your
attention to an argument in favor OF
the bill now in the house. The dis
tricts which compose the arid lands
by reason of the intense dry heat there
produced and which, through the east
ward movement of all atmospheric con
ditions across the continent, are and
always have been a menace to all that
great agricultural country lying to the
east and northeast of the section in
question, notably Texas, Oklahoma.
Kansas, Missouri, Illinois. Iowa. South
Dakota, Indiana and Ohio. The ire
mendous losses experienced within the
past twelve months by farmers, the
live stock interests, the merchant and
common carriers are fresh in our
minds. A veritable calamity.
"The great loss entailed through the
partial failure of the corn crop and
forced substitution, on a large scale,
of other grains to supply the deficiency
there caused. with wheat. rye. oats.
ETC.. resulted in the curtailment of ex-
ports to such an extent as to be not
only extraordinary but in some in
stances, as with corn, sensational.
THE effects in the Eastern Or on
Stunning states are notable and scarcely
any part of the union has been unaf-
fected by the conditions produced by
the scorching blight which, originating
only in the arid region, blasted the
crops over a large and important part
Of the country.
we who are directly affected by
such misfortunes desire to earnestly
second the endeavor-$o remOve the
constant n to prosperity in such
a wide scope of territory and ask for
legislation to that end"

AN TEXT.
Bat 1t Was "A Forc'hle IiIustration Of q
Great Truth,

Several years ago there labOTed /
one of the western villages of Mime.
sofa a preacher who was always in tn
habit of selecting his texts from tn.
old testament. and particularly SONS
portion of the history of Noah. No
matter what the occasion was, lie
would always find some parallel Incl,
dent from the history of this great
character that would readily serve %
a text or illustration.
At n time he was called upon t.

upon the novel idea of FASTING togeth

as to connect. without any apparent
break, the marriage of Noah n the
description Of the Ark of the Cove

When the noted guests were al as
sembled and the contracting parties
with attendants in their respective
stations the preacher began the cer--
monies by reading the following text:

The extremes to which some people
will go for revenge have seldom beer
better demonstrated than in the case
of two rival shipowners in the north
of England some years ago. The
Manager of a local colliery invited
tenders for the conveyance OF large
quantities of coal to America, and
when the contract was given to one
shipowner the other Immediately Sc;
to work to wreak vengeance,
He first approached the owners Of
the colliery and offered to carry the
coal across the Atlantic for a shilling
a ton less than cost price, and as this
effected considerable saving to the col,
liery. the proprietors countermanded
the former contract and closed with
the second oner. The ~shipowner was
content to suffer a loss for five years
in order to spite his rival. and at the
end of that time he capitulated, for
his revenge had cost him SS5, 900.

OF INTEREST TO SICK PEOPLE.

We have all the sympathy in the
world for sick people, and want to treat
them in a serious way. There is no
humor in pain and suffering, but hard,
earnest fact. 1t is impossible for the
patient to impress on others the extent
Of suffering they endure, and their
anxiety for relief. To get well or be
relieved is their one thought; any re-
medy that will bring this about has
their everlasting gratitude. We have
thousands Of letters from people who
have had dyspepsia, sick-headache, and
frequent bilious attacks, who tell us
how thankful they were for having

A TERRIBLE Moment.

Prof. Oscar Browning, writing of
"The Royal Family of England" tells
this anecdote of Queen Victoria:
One can imagine privy council at
which the new ministers had to be en-
rolled. The admitted members stood
round the room; the novices knelt in
the center. The queen looked wistful-
ly at those who were technically her
servants. but who were really her mas
tiers, wondering what her relations
with them would be, and whether
they were At to bear the burden in
trusted to them. Some who accept Of
fee are perhaps surprised at the de-
tails of the ceremony. One whose du-
ties necessitated that ne should be for
some time absolutely alone with the
queen. in a small room without sim
gle attendant, wondered what she
would say to him and he reply to her.
The difficulty was solved by his say
ing nothing. and the queen only re-
marking. when she had to sign his COM
mission: what a tremendous long
way they have put the ink oh!"-Cen-
