CONGRESS-.

Washington, Jan. 20. - The senate
proceedings yesterday included a
speech by Mr.. Simons Of North Caro-
lima in support OF the Panama canal
treaty and the passage OF a number OF
bills and resolutions. Mr.. Simons was
the first Democratic senator to favor
the measure or the floor OF the SEN
ate. He announced his disapproval Of
the intervention OF the United States
In the isthmus Of Panama trouble, but
said that as the revolution was an, ac-
complished fact and was such before
the treaty was made he could not ac-
cept the theory that the treaty itself
was invalid. Among the bills passed
was one admitting to citizens OF Porto
Rico and the Philippines the right to
take advantage OF naturalization laws
Of this country, but MIR. Spooner
moved to reconsider the vote, thus
leaving the question undlsposed OF.
The resolution giving authority to the
committee on privileges and elections
to proceed with the investigation of
the charges against Mr.. Smoot was
passed.
------
Washington. Jan. 29-The house for
an hour yesterday was entertained
by a speech by Mr. j.. Adam Bede, a
Republican member froom Minnesota,
who made his maiden effort and won
his spurs. His remarks were replete
with wit and humor as we'll as seri-
Gus thought. Now and then for pur-
poses Of Illustration he would tell a
story. which recital greatly amused
his auditors. He received the closest
attention Of Republicans and Demo
Gratis alike, and drew laughter and
applause first from n side and then
from the other side Of the house. And
at times both sides of the chamber
Joined in vigorous applause. Good
natured ~colloquies resulted from his
thrusts at the Democratic party. When
he had concluded he was ~applauded
on both sides. There was also a dis.
cussion OF finance by Mr.. Hill (Rep.,
Comm and MIR. Williams CDem.,
Miss) besides references to the Pan
anna canal and the race problem in
the South.
The time Of the senate was devoted
to debate rather than set speeches on
the attitude of the United States to-
ward the Panama revolution. The de-
bate was opened by Mr.. Culberson
and was participated in by Messrs.
German and Bacon on the Democratic
side OF the chamber, and by Messrs.
Cullom. Spooner and Lodge on the
Republican side. The Democrats con-
tend for the right Of the senate to de.
mand information in the possession OF
THE executive department bearing on
treaties before the senate, while the
Republican speakers spoke in defense
of the discretion of the president to
withhold information.

Washington, Jan. 80. - The senate
yesterday adopted the resolution in.
troduced by Mr.. Culberson, for the
Democratic caucus, which calls on the
president to state whether the senate
has been supplied all the facts bearing
on the Panama question. The vote on
the resolution was unanimous, but
there was a roll call on the amend
ment suggested by Mr.. Cullom, for the
Republican side OF the chamber. call
ing for the information only In case
the president should consider it not IN
compatible with the public interest tC
supply it. This amendment was adopt
ed by 80 to 20, all the Republican sen
ators present voting for the amend
ment and all the Democrats except
Mr.. Mclnery, who voted with the Re-
publicans. casting their votes against
it. The Culberson inquiry no sooner
a been disposed Of than the Bacon
resolution looking to the adjustment of
our differences with Colombia by ar
bltratlOn was considered.
The house yesterday considered
whether members Of congress are en-
titled to be paid mileage a second
time. The controversy arose on an
item in the urgent deficiency bill pro-
viding for two payments Of mileage
for senators and members of the house
on account Of the extra session which
merged into the regular session. A
point Of order was raised by MI. Mad
dox (Dem.. Ga.) against the payment
OF mileage a second time, and he was
supported by Mr.. L~ittlefeld (Rep.,
Me-. who contended that there had
been no ~interregnum, and consequent
ly but one session of congress-. and
there 'is no authority of law for a
second appropriation for mileage. Mr..
L%ittlefield received close attention and
was piled with numerous questions as
to his Interpretation of the law and
the constitution. An adjournment
was taken before q conclusion was
reached.

Birthday Surprise.

Sunday, November q, about
II friends and neighbcrs Assem-
bled at the home of Chas. E.
Jones, about a miles southeast
IF the Valley, to give Mrs. Jones
\ surprise, it being her 38th
birthday. Among those pres
ent were r. w. Jones and wife,
E. G. Jones and family, Clau d
Clark and family, Robert
Hatcher and wife, Judd Hatch
er and wife, Albert Greene and
family, Francis Hatcher and
wife, Mrs. Ellis Mullenix and
son, Lon Hathaway and wife,
Frank Creig and sister, Harry
Weatherly and wife, William
and Thomas Hatcher, Mr.. Tam
isiea and Miss Duncan, Geo.
Denton and family. There
were quite a number whose
names the writer was unable to
learn. They began to arrive
at 1890, withwell filled baskets,
and at l o'clock they were in
vited into the dining room,
where there was spread before
them everything that heart
could wish. The day was spent
in social chat and music on the
violin, mandolin and organ.
Old Uncle Rube Jones was at
home with the bow and violin
in his hands and his grand
daughter at the organ. The
gathering was indeed a surprise
on Mrs. Jones, and when they
began to come three and four
carriages at once it almost took
away her strength, but she
finally overcame the feeling
that comes over anyone on such
occasions and enjoyed the day
to the fullest extent. Mrs.
Jones received many presents,
among which were a rocking
chair, mirror and many nice
glass dishes. The day was en-
joyed by all and when time to
leave for home came we all
hoped Mrs. Jones might live to
see many such days.
One who was there.

Charles Iic.t's best play Will
be presented 1T the new theatre
soon. 1t is q most laughable
satil4 Oh present day politics,
and the story opens in Texas
with the election Of Maverick
Brander,' the cattle, king to
Congress. "Brander" is a mod
est man and does not seek office.
The election takes place during
his absence from home and is
brought about by the ambition
Of his family for social distinc-
ton, and desire to get out of
the dreariness of life on a
cattle ranch, and in a frontier
town, to the gayer and more
fashionable circles found at the
national capitol. The first in
formation that "Brander" has
of his election that has been
brought about by the instru-
mentality of three local politi-
Clans. Messrs Yell, Brag and
Blow, is when he is "yanked'
off his wagon on his peaceful
way home, crowned with laurel
as was Cincinnatus, and brought
in OIL the shoulders of four men,
followed by the riff-raff Of the
frontier town. There is some
difficulty in getting him to
serve, but this is overcome
when the gang point their guns
at his head, and declare that if
he is perhaps too good to repre-
sent them in Congress, he is
perhaps too good to live. The
"Brailder' family is next seen
in q reception room at the Ar
lingt 4 Hotel in Washington,
an the scene teens with
amusing incidents, consequent
W ii the newness of the family
to va hington and its devious
was. Between the first act
and the second, sufficient time
is supposed to have elapsed for
the "Brander' family to get
acquainted with the town;
so1ial friction has smoothed the
general appearance, manners
an habits of the family. The
cattle king now wears his dress
suit with the ease of a man
about-town, smokes Perfectos,
and bankers after frozen
absinthe.
