in THE HOUSE.
Bill Creating General Staff for the
Army Is Passed.

Washington. Jan. Sat the opening
of the house today special order was
adopted for immediate consideration OF
the bill to create a general staff In the
army. General debate was limited to an
hour.
Mcclellan of New York, the first
speaker. supported the bill, although
expressing doubt as to whether the best
results could be obtained from the gen Z
eral staff, composed OF officers detailed
for short terms, without previous
technical training. He remarked iron-s
ically that perhaps this could not be
helped as long as senators had sons and
representatives had relatives willing to
serve their country. x
Adams of Pennsylvania warmly com
mended the bill.
Klutts of North Carolina criticised ii.
He believed a general in the field was
better able to command the army than
a board Of strategy sitting around a
table in Washington.
Hay of Virginia, Parker of New Jer-
sey, Hull of Iowa and Hepburn OF
Iowa also discussed the bill
The general debate then closed.
Warner of Illinois offered an amend
ment to strike out Secretary of warg
wherever it occurred in the bill coupled
with president" He thought the su-
preme command of't!le army should rest
where it was, with the president.
The amendment was adopted as
were several other minor verbal amend.
ments. So
The measure was then passed by
vote Of 1853 to So.

home was luxurious. The deaf old
m who had been his fathers ser
want sat grim and fearless by the side
of the coffin.
martha was faithful" whispered
the doctor, "but she's deaf. His life
was very solitary. The neighbors
are young. He belonged to another
generation"
He r~everently uncovered the coffin,
and then with Martha went out and
closed the door. The judge was alone
with his dead.
Strange enough, his thought was
still of the cold baroness of the room.
Those hacked wooden chairs were
there when he was-a boy. 1t would
have been so easy for him to have
made the house comfortable-to have
hung some pictures on the wall! How
his father had delighted in his en-
cravings, and pored over them!
Looking now into the kind old
face, with the white hair lying mo-
tionless on it, he found something in
it which he had never taken time to
notice before-a sagacity, a nature
fine and sensitive. He was the
friend, the comrade, whom he had
needed so often! He had left him
with deaf old Martha for his sole
companion!
There hung upon the wall the pho
tograph of a young man with an
eager, strong face, looking proudly
at a chubby boy on his knee. The
judge saw the strength in the face.
"My father should have played a
high part in life" he thought. "There
is more promise in his face than in
mine"
In the desk was bundle of old
account books with records of years
of hard drudgery on the farm; of

school bills, and to send him to Har-
ward. One patch of ground after
another was sold while he waited for
practice, to give him clothes and lux
uries which other young men in town
had, until but a meager portion of
the farm was left.
John Gilroy suddenly closed the
book. "And this is the end!" he said.
"The boy for whom he lived and
worked, won fortune and position
and how did he repay him?"
The man knelt on the bare floor,
and shed bitter tears on the quiet old
face. ooh father! father!" he cried.
But there was no smile on the quiet
face. He was too late.-Youth's
Companion.

Mournfully Late.

The old farmer died suddenly, so
when Judge Gilroy, his only son, re-
ccived the telegram, he could do
nothing but go up to the farm for
the funeral. 1t was difficult to do
even that. for the Judge was the lead
ing lawyer in , and every hour
was worth many dollars to him.
As he sat with bent head in the
grimy little train which numbered
through the farms, he could not keep
the details of his cases out of his
mind. He had been a good, respect
full son. He had never given his
father a h~eartache; and the old man
died full of years and virtues, "a
shock of corn fully ripe" The
phrase pleased him.

tor, gravely, "that your fathers

A Remarkable Record.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has
a remarkable record. 1t has been in
use for over thirty years, during which
time many million bottles have been
sold and used. 1t has long been the
standard and main reliance in the
treatment of Group in thousands OF
homes, yet during all this time no
case has ever been reported to the
manufacturers in which it failed to
effect a cure. When given as soon as
the child becomes hoarse or even as
soon as the eroupy cough appears, it
will prevent the attack. 1t is pleas
