Washington, April 26.-Whether the
president shall order the construction
of the battleship provided for in the
naval appropriation bill, or wait until
the war in the Far East demonstrates
the comparative utility Of the big sea
fighter and the torpedo boat or sub
marine craft was a question raised
in the senate by Hale on the adoption
Of the conference report 1t was de-
veloped that the language Of the bill!
was permissive and that the president
and secretary Of the navy could defer
action II they deem it advisable.
Hale declared that If he we're secre-
tary of the navy he should not dare to
90 ON now and commit the government
to the building Of an immense battle
ship. for 1t would not surprise him if
events of the Russian-Japanese war
demonstrated that the $150,0OO,OOO
paid for big batt,eships were a bad
investment for ths government. Sew
eral other senators counseled delay.
The numerous serious accidents in our
navy were referred to In the course

Some amusement was created by
the numerous requests for leave to

applause, although no remarks were
declared. A request for such permis-

by Williams, the minority leader and
threw the house into some confusion.
Grosvenor remarked that things had

DALzELL VS.. COCHRAN
Their Controversy Reopened by
the Pennsylvania Man, Who
Supplies a Hot Roast.
DECLARES TARIFF Is TEE ISSUE
Charges tho New Yorker with Hav.
ing Been on All Sides of the
National Questions.

Washington, April 27.-The Cock
ran-Dalzell dispute was given anothe,
''whirl' in the house and the remarks
were, if possible more personal than
they were last Saturday. Dalzell be-
gan the entertainment by replying at
length TO Cochran. He said a burn
ing question in the coming campaign
was the tariff and that the Democrat
ic leaders were all for free trade more
or less. Then he came to the con-
troversy on Saturday. He said that
the press dispatches intimated that he
had made an unjust attack on Cock
ran. "On the contrary" he said, warm
ly. 'he made mean and contemplate
ittack on me-"
Declares Himself Justified.
Dalzell explained his remark of last
Saturday by saying that he had been
Informed that it was profitable to
Cochran to support Mckinley when
he did. He vehemently declared that
he was so informed. 81 say now,"
ic exclaimed, that I was justified
n making that charge, because it is
he current belief to this Gay that
ne gentleman received money for po-
.i-ical work" To support his charge
he said he would mention some facts
and circumstances connected with the
history Of Cochran.
Attacks Cockran's Political Record.
He then read from a number of
documents to show that Cochran start
ed as greenbacker and i'm 1896 stood
with the Mckinley side because he
was for sound money. For sound
money in 1885," he said. amid Repub-
lican applause, travelling all over the
continent: in 1900 in support of Bryan;
greenbacker. sound money man. free
silver man. He has been Bryanitc
and an anti-Bryanite. He was for
Bryan in 1900. Is he for Pryan now ?''
So far as he could judge, Dalzell
said, lhe was for 'some. gentleman up
in New York, or may be In New Jer-
sey."

People use CO., caine or opium for nervous troubles and sick headache, it does not cure, stop taking the drugs and the pain and distress return. The only Com mon Sense Method is to drive out the cause of dyspepsia and sick headache, by clensing the stomach and bowels, at the same time using 8 medicine that will act on the liver. This forces through the glands of the stomach the digestive fluid that nature intended. In this way you cure dyspepsia.

selves upon the sofa proceeded to the business of the evening, which is said to have been the solution of series of problems in astronomy.
 At little after nine there was a sudden alarm of ''papa" in the front hall. In like circumstances the pru- dent young lady always turns up the light and seats herself in the rocking chair, feat which can be accom- plished by young ladies in good prac- tice in from three to five seconds. When Miss Bartlett undertook to rise with view to the light and the rock ing chair, she exclaimed, "Oh, my" in agonized tones, and to Mir. Bald wins amazement remained in her orig inal position. There was not sec- ond to lose, for already the heavy boots of "papa" were to be heard on the floor, and he was on the point of turning the door knob. MT. Baldwin earnestly begged Miss Bartlett to re- call her energism, or at all events to move and permit him to take the rock ing chair, but while she was entreat- ing him with sobs not to stir, the door opened and "papa" was upon them.
 Unlike the typical western farmer that we read about, Mir. Bartlett was an amiable and jovial old gentleman, and when, after turning up the light, he saw what was the matter, instead of sacrificing his daughter's hair, he sat down in the rocking chair and laughed till the tears flowed as freely as the sorrowful tears of his daughter.
 When he drew from Mir. Baldwin the story of the hair cement he made it the subject of solemn text on the folly of dealing with peddelrs. It is just to him to say that, remembering his own youthful experiences, he touched as lightly as possible on the guilt of the young lovers in being young, but he gave Mir. Baldwin to distinctly understand that no young man capable of being made the victim of peddlers could be permitted to visit his daughter.
 Later in the evening MT. Bartlett summoned his wife and basin of hot water, and after prolonged effort the hair cement was sufficiently softened to permit the separation of Miss Bart lett from MT. Baldwin's shoulder. The young man left the house in most pitable state of mind and coat, and has not the least expect ation of ever receiving the young la,ly's for giveness. It will doubtless be warn- ing to him to have nothing further to do with peddlers, and it could be wished that the publication of this painful and pathetic story would have like effect upon the thousands of trusting women who are now the daily victims in our country towns of heart- less peddlers.

A PEDDLER's CRIME.

dHu lSuOrdut Oi tVli, IS udIurdilv tus easy foe of the peddler. It is seldom that q peddler will attack man, foi the reason that nine times out of ter he will be received with coldness, an( that his wares will be sneered at ant his veracity doubted. Woman, or the other hand, are always curious tG see the contents of peddler's pack and are quite ready to believe what ever he says. When he assures them that he is offering them an opportun ity to buy articles at ridiculously low prices, they hasten to buy. What is really inexplicable is the fact that though a woman may be cheated by six successive peddlers, she never al. lows her experience to lead her to dis. trust the seventh.
 Now and then we find man who is such by mistake, and who is thor. oughly effeminate in his habits o mind. Mir. Baldwin is conceded by all the inhabitants of Sand Patch to be wholly free from masculine vices, and is as blameless in his conduct as the most eminent mother in Israel, but there is universal conviction that his sex is an error, and that he was originally intended to be womam This fully explains the feminine read. mess with which he yields to the wiles of peddlers. They seem to be drawn to him as by magnetic attraction, and they never fail to sell him anything, or rather something. It is rumored of Mir. Baldwin that he has dozens oi bottles of infamous perfumery, and scores of packages of ''bum" jewelry in his room, which he has bought from time to time of peddlers who had won his confidence, while the num- Der of articles of like origin and char acter which he has presented to the young ladies of Sand Patch is pain- fully large.
 When on Friday last MT. Baldwin bought of peddle bottle of hair cement with the view of presenting it to Miss Bartlett, he meant to do a kind and thoughtful act. He knew that ladies are addicted to the use of vaseline, mucilage and bloom of youth to keep their hair from falling out and in place, and giving it smooth and glossy appearance. The peddlar told him that his hair tonic or cement was far superior to anything yet put be- fore the public, and that no lady who had once used it would ever consent to be without it.
 Mir. Baldwin therefore bought a bottle of the hair cement, and sent it with neatly written note in which he renewed his VOWS of affection, while entreating her to use the cement that very evening for his sake, as the odor was so delicate and refreshing. For what followed the peddler should be held primarily responsible, for it is idle to pretend that, had MT. Bald win forseen the consequences of his act, he would never have placed the bottle in the hands of the one to whom he was so devotedly attached. That he was greatly attached to her will soon be perceived.
 About 8 o'clock that evening he called at the home of Miss Bartlett and was delighted at the glossy ap- pearance of her hair. She said that there was no doubt that the hair ce- ment was far better than bandoline in point of adhesiveness, and that she hoped it would prove to be all that a woman's heart could wish. Still, she

So much has been said about the
famous order number Is relative to
pensions that the remarks of Judge
Taft in a speech a few nights ago on
this subject will he Of interest to
the readers of the RECORD. Judge
Taft says:
The single specification as to
pension order No. IS of the
unconstitutional administration Of
an unconstitutional and tyrannical
and imperial President is dwelt upon
at some length by Judge Parker in
his letter Of acceptance, and with
more positiveness in respect to that
than in respect to any other issue
which he touches.
Now, it is said that this order
took directly out Of the treasury
sl2, 100000. This is the charac-
teristic exaggeration OF party
having no real arguments upon
which to proceed in the campaign.
The amount Of claims presented
under this order does not involve
the government in an additional
expense Of more than $4,000 in
the first three months after its pro-
mitigation, a sum, the smallness Of
which only serves 10 confirm and
vindicate the justice Of the order,
because II shows that the prcsump-
ton which was declared was Just
presumption Of fact only increased
the pension list by the plumber Of
those who were entitled To pen
sion under the act, hut had prolu.
bly, been prevented iOm applying
for the one by the burden of max
ing actual proui Of physical impair.
ment.
And now Mr.. parker say, that
he would revoke the order II be- has
the power, aud then would approve
n service pension. What service
would be- approve? Would b. up.
