The greater portion of the afternoon was
consumed in a wrestle between Senator
Howell OF Douglas and the revenue com

I'll was the father Of a joint resolution to
equest the supreme court to appoint a
commission from that BODY to act with the

erred to the revenue committee and re-
'orted back that It be neutrality-suspicious.
This brought forth a deluge Of oratory from
Howell, who moved that the Joint resolu-
ion be placed on general nle. During his
'emarks Howell stated thai the members
u the legislature were apparently divided
nto three sections-those who favored the
enforcement OF the present law. those who
lesired a new law and others who be-
ieved that the present law should be
mended. There is now some talk OF ad-

A REBUILT LAWYER
FO0d That Put Him Right.

II is easy to correct the bad effects OF
wrong eating II one will give It a little
thought. Scientific food is just as pleas
to the palate, and in the case of Grape
Nuts, is more delicious than improper food
and 1t makes a world OF difference in
health and spirits.
Some three months ago" writes Mr..
f. L. Saunders of Boston, Mass, "Ii suf-
fered terribly with indigestion; all kinds
Of food distressed me; sometimes I had a
feeling Of sufocation about the heart,
especially at night. My sleep was broken
and / lost flesh rapidly.
81 commenced using Grape-Nuts and the
relief from Indigestion was almost immedi-
ate, and in a short time entirely disap-
peared; my heart resumed its normal con-
dition and I attribute the cure entirely to
Grape-Nuts.
"A well known lawyer Of this city told me
that he suffered from excessive nervous
ness, and before entering the court room
to try a case was obliged to resort to
stimulents. I urged him to try Grape-Nuts
which he did with almost marvellous re-
suits; he not only gained flesh, but the
nervousness left and his former strength
and confidence returned.
Il am convinced that Grape-Nuts gives
strength to the body and vigor 10 the brain.
1t is worthy Of the highest praise and
will cheerfully answer all letters seeking
Information in regard to the food" Re

cally not a medicated food in any sense OF

HOUSE MAKES SLOW PROGRESS
DispOseA of Four Pages of Indian APP
preparation Bill Giving survey
Grant to Dakota.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-The house to-
day made slow progress with the Indian
appropriation bill, covering only about
eight pages in over four hours. Mr.. Burton
CO., hung on the flank Of MIR. sherman
IN. ", who had charge OF the bill, and in
sisted upon an explanation of every item,
He succeeded in having several appropria-
tions cut down. .t a
In the course of the debate he furnished
some interesting statistics on the subject
OF Indian education designed to show that
the more money the government spent the
more helpless the Indians became.
The senate amendment to the bill to
amend the bankruptcy act was agreed to.
The house then resumed consideration of
the Indian appropriation bill.
While the bill was being considered Mr..
Smith, the delegate from Arizona, took the
floor, and replied to some Of the charges
made in the senate during the debate on
the statehood bill, to the effect that Ari-
zona had repudiated its debts.
Mr.. Smith explained that he was COM
PEELED to reply in the house because Ari-
IONA had no representative in the senate
He denied that Arizona had ever repudi-
ated a single dollar OF debt or defaulted on
a dollar of it.
The charge, he said, was based upon the
fact that a horde of men owning bonds
known to be fraudulent had come to. con-
gross, and had those bonds validated after
they had been declared invalid by the su-
preme court. .,.
He explained how one OF the counties
in the territory had been induced to issue
bonds to promote a railroad enterprise.
But, he said, no railroad had been built
for the $4,000 debt which congress had
saddled on the people.
lie thought the act validating the bonds
should be repealed or the United States
should assume their payment. Amend
nents we're agreed to'appropristing s21, 300

tion of 0,000 for a warehouse at st. Louis
