Sunshine and Clouds.

Give sunshine; add to the worlds scant store,
Into some shaded nook, your sunbeams pour. -
Is your offering small: Let me tell you thered
cheer ~
In tone, a smile. yes. even tear.
Can there be sunshine in the tears that creep
Into eyes? Yes; when they weep
With those who weep. For cen the tear, the
= sigh,
Finds birth in the heart throbs of sympathy.
Then shine thru the tears that bedim your OWL
500 eyes. ..-----.-.
The raindrops and sun make the rainbow skies.
Shine, tho adversity's clouds intervene.
The clouds, if sun kissed, but add to the scene.
For many, life's path is stormy and rough.
For all, however smooth. there are clouds enough
To make of life's day glorious ending.
With sunshine and clouds in the sunset blending.

Washington, d. C,-The House of
Representatives has adopted the IL
articles of impeachment against Judge
Charles Swayne of the district court
of the northern district Of Florida,
which had been presented by its spe.
| cial committee of investigation.
The speaker was authorized to APP
point seven managers to present the
case to the Senate and conduct the
impeachment proceedings before that
body.
This action was the elimination of
a debate which had been In progress
for over week and which has de-
yeloped partisan feeling and personal
yituperatiOn.
The first vote, that to table the first
three articles, those relating to the
Justification of expenses, went against
Judge Swayne by q narrow margin of
five votes. This was regarded as the
test vote, as the charge regarding ex-
penses was the only one concurred in
by the members of the committee
signing the minority report. The mo-
ton to take these articles was lost,
100 to 165.
Twenty-four Republicans voted with
the Democrats against tabling, and
three Democrats voted with the Re-
publicans to table. On roll call these
three articles were adopted.
Articles and 3, relating to the use
of a private car by Judge Swayne,
were made the subject of a separate
vote and adopted.
Like action followed with regard to
Articles 6 and Z, charging him with
nOn-residence in his district.
This vas the last roll call, as Ar
ticles s, 8, 10 and II, relating to the
DaVis-Belden contempt case, and Ar
ticle -, relating to the O'Neal con
Iewpt Gao y~-"' declared adopted on
viva yOce vote.
The last time the House voted to
present articles of impeachment was
in 1876, when it voted the impeach,
ment of w. w. Belknap, secretary of
war under President Grant.
The debate was chiefly notable for
the closing arguments in the case.
That for Judge Swayne was made by
Mr.. Gillette of California, and that for
impeachment by Mr.. Palmer of Penn.
sylyania. Mr.. Gillette made an ear
nest plea for the Judge, and Mr.. Palm
er spoke strongly for purity on the
bench for impeachment.
Mr.. Palmer then offered a resolu-
ton empowering the speaker to ap-
point seven managers on the part of
the House to conduct the impeachment
against Judge Swayne.
This was agreed to without objec-
ton He followed it with another res
olution empowering the seven mana
gers to present the articles of i'm
peachment TO the Senate in the name
of the House and Of all the people of
the United States.
This resolution was also agreed to
without opposition.

Windsor, Vt.-Notwithstandla the
efforts of various womens organiza-
tions to save the life of Mary A. ROg-
ers, preparations for the execution
move along silently
Much OF the newspaper comment up-
On details and arrangements for the
execution is regarded as laughable by
Sheriff Peck and his deputies. DE
tails" said Sheriff Peck, that have
not even thought of appear in print;
matters that have not even discussed
with my most intimate associates as
deputies have been discussed.
In regard TO the date of the execu-
ton, the order and sentence of the
court in this case plainly reads on the
first Friday in February, 1905. This
brings it to Feb 8, not Feb s. as has
been incorrectly stated. 1t does not
and never did name a date other than
in these terms
The death warrant is not formida-
BILE looking legal document. A glance
at the outer protecting paper would
hardly reveal that the contents of the
little, long, narrowly folded document
was the order to hang by the neck
until dead human being. The war
rant is plainly and neatly typewriter,
on legal paper bearing the seal of the
state of Vermont in the upper left
hand corner One feature noticeable
in the document is that the name
throughout reads Mary NJ. Rogers, not
Mary A. Rogers. The only ink on
the document is the. signature of the
clerk Of court. The time is between
the hours Of and 2 o'clock in the al-
ternoon. This feature is regretted
by those connected with the execution,
as one hour is a limited time in case
of any unforeseen casualty.

satlsfaetIon Expressed BY Russia.

st. Petersburg.-Th foreign Office

tiated by Secretary Hay at Peltin re-
garding the necessity for China's ad-
herring rigidly to neutrality, and in
communicating the action of the Unit
su states 10 the powers III rne nope VI

1t is distinctly asserted here that
Russia does not desire, unless forced
to do so, to extend the area of hostili-
ties to China.
Russia's notification to the powers
that she considers herself free to act
in protection of her own interests, 1t
is pointed out officially, is in the nat
ure Of formal warning Of her posi-
ton, but she has no intention OF NOV
ing except If compelled to do so.
AS a matter OF fact very pessimis-
tic view is taken here of the situation
in China regardless of the professions
of the Pekin government.
According to Russian official reports
both the Chinese government and peo-
pie are falling more and more under
japanese influence, especially since the
fall of Port Arthur.

BIG STRIKE ENDS.
Fall River Operatives to Resume Work
at Lower Wages.

Boston-The long strike of the Fall
River mill operatives was settled in
the executive department at the State
House, Wednesday, representatives OF
the textile unions and Of the manufac-
turers attaching their signatures TO a
proposition submitted by Gov. Doug
las.
For a number Of weeks the governor
has been looking into conditions at
Fall River and either personally or
through Herbert 4. Drake, who occu-
pies responsible position in the EN-
ploy of the Douglas company, has been
in conference with both sides in an at
tempt to arbitrate the situation.
Under the terms of Governor Doug
las proposition the operatives return
to work at the reduced scale of IL IL
percent, which went into effect last
July, and which was the immediate
cause of the strike, the governor to
investigate the question Of margins
and to submit his conclusions as to
what average margin shall prevail on
which the manufacturers shall pay a
dividend of 8 percent on wages from
the present time to April 1, 1905.
Following is Gov. Douglas PROPOSE
tion which was accepted by both
sides:
The strike to be declared off, and
the operatives to return to work at
once.
All operatives to be put to work in
the mill in which they were employed
when the strike began, as fast as
practicable, and no discrimination to
be shown on account Of the present
strike.
After resumption of work | will
take up and investigate the matter Of
margins and submit to you my con
clusions as to what average margin
shall prevail on which the manufac'
turers shall pay dividend of per
cent on wages from the present time
TO April /, 1905.
1t is agreed by both parties that the
margin fixed by me shall In no way
prejudice future wage schedules.
After the agreement had been
signed Gov. Douglas addressed the la.
Dor men briefly, assuring them of his
sympathy and pointing out the neces.
sity of employers and employees main
tanning friendly relations.
Both parties left the state house i'm.
mediatel after the agreement had
been signed.
