Washington Dee. THE senate to
day reached decision TO vote on the
Philippine civil government bill pro-
viding for the construction of railroads
in the island on the 18th inst. and in
ADDITION transacted considerable other
business.
Mr.'Platt of New York created some
thing Of stir by introducing a bill
providing for a reduction OF the con-
SfesSional representation of the south
ern states on the ground that many of
the citizens of those states are deprived
OF their right 10 vote. and Mr.. Scott
plunged the senate into an exception
ally early debate by attempting to Sc
cure the passage of bill granting pen
slons TO the telegraph operators of the
ciNll war. A large number of bills and
JOINT resolutions were introduced and
many petitions were presented. The
discussion OF the time for voting on the
Philippine bill brought out the fact
that there is a general understanding
that the Christmas holiday recess will
Degin on the 18th instant.
When the senate convened the regu-
lar call for business was made for the
hrst time in the session and a large
number of petitions bills and joint res
Philippine Bill.
Mr.. Lodge called up the Philippine
government bill for the purpose of ask
ing 10 have the measure reprinted and
said that as il was on the calendar as
the unfinished business of the senate
ne would press its consideration each
day after o'clock until disposed of.
he then asked the Democratic senators
IL they could name a time at which
they would be willing to have q vote
taken on the measure. An agreement
was finally reached TO vote on the bill
and all amendments at S O'Clock, Dec.
16.
Mr.. Scott asked the senate to enter
upon the consideration of the bill plac-
ing on the pension roll the names of
telegraph operators who served as such
during the civil war and in explanation
OF the measure said that while the op-
orators were not enlisted, they were
the confidential agents or the govern
ment and had performed most hnpor-
tant services.
Mr. Cockrell called attention to the
fact that soldiers were paid SIS per
month and the telegraph operators had
received from $50 to 800 per month, and
on this account he opposed the bill. He
also said that If telegraph operators
HNere TO be pensiOned it would be nee
essary TO pension teamsUers and other
civilian employees.
Mr.. McCumber spoke in support of
the bill saying there would be only

LET US HELP YOU TO HEALTH
scallin Bros. Want Every Catarrh
Sufferer to Use Hyomei and
be Cured.

Statistics show tnat at least. 81 out
Of every 100 persons in this state
suffer from catarrh in some form.
While the disease is one of the
most common, it is also one Of the
most dangerous and offensive, lead
ing to consumption and other diseas-
es Of the respiratory organs.
Prior to the discovery of Hyomei
and its introduction into this section
by Scallin Bros, every method Of
treatment had been found worthless.
The discovery of Hyomie and its
growing POPULARITY has already re-
duced the percentage of those suffer-
ing from catarrh. This wonderful
remedy is the simplest and most
pleasant Of treatment. Put 20
drops of Hyomie in the pocket in
haler that comes with every outfit,
and breathe it u few minutes four
times a day. Relief will be seen af-
ter the first treatment and a COM
plete cure will soon follow. Breathe
the Hyomei in this way, and the ca
tarrhal germs even in the most re-
mote air cells are destroyed. The ir.
ritated mucous membrane is soothed
and healed, and perfect health re
stored.
Scallin Bros. say to all catarrha
sufferers, "Let us help you to health,
we are confident Hyomie will cure
sc. confident, in fact, that we guaran-
tee to refund your money if it fails.
a complete outfit costs 81, and if it
does not help you, your money will
be returned promptly"

believed he spoke the sentiments of
all the boys coming down from Alb

votes of next November were counted
that there would be something doing
in Mitchell. Ills sentiment was re-
ceived with cheers and applause.

the interest shown in the meeting.
During the afternoon the knights
were supplied with carriages for a
drive over the city. and the Mitchell
Club rooms were placed at the dis
posal of them until the evening
meeting. The local knights made
every effort to keep their guests
busy and from the generous remarks
heard along the line there is no
doubt but what they were successful.
The evening session of the lodge
was held in the Masonic hall TO bet
ter accommodate the large crowd
that was present. and which was
estimated by the Grand Chancellor at

interfere with any mans religion he
declared that any member who lived
up to its standards would be a better
citizen for having Joined its ranks.
He said that Pythianism was patri-
otfc, and that today the members Of

cement the bonds of Pythianism to
a closer degree. Mitchell, he said,
had certainly shown in her entertain

Mayor Silsby, a Knight Of THU ty-
five years standing, made a happy
speech in which he paid a fine com
pliment to the order and to the men
who composed its membership. AMI
while he was a little late in doing so
he wanted the knights 10 understand
thoroughly that the keys of the city
had been thrown away and that they
were at liberty to enjoy its hospital
ity to the full. The mayor said he
appreciated more than he could tell
the pleasing references that had been
made concerning Mitchell's aspira-
