IN THE SENATE.

The joint statehood bill will continue to be the principal topic of discussion in the Senate during the present week. but other measures will receive atten- ton each day during the morning hour. including the omnibus claims bill, for which Senator Warren stands sponsor. The bill comprises more than 200 pages but the Senator has already succeeded ir having 1t read by utilizing odd hours. and thus has put n laege and important part of she work of consideration to the rear.
 There will be an effort made to get through the bill providing for Nthe com- pensation of American fishermeifs whose vessels were seized previous to the ar ht~ tration of 1893, This measure is In the hands of Senator Fulton, who will press 1t as an act of justice to men whom he thinks have been dlseriminated against.
 The pure food bill will remain in the background for the present, not because the friends of that measure have ahan- doned it, but because they consider that its chances will be improved by not press Ing for immediate consideration.
 Morgan Will Speak.
 Discussion of the statehood question will begin on Monday with a speech by Senator Morgan, and he will be followed by other opposing senators. The present plan of the opposition is to keep the dis cusson going until some of the appropria- ton bills are reported, and 1t becomes necessary to take thenf up, or if this Is postponed too long, to displace the bill with the pure food bill Failing In all these expedients they probably will seek a compromise.
 The only real fight is against the unit ing of Arizona and New Mexico and there is talk of eliminating those terri tories entirely from the statehood propo- sition. It is believed If this is done the bill for the consolidation of Oklahoma and Indian Territory would pass Thus far there has been no conference of op- posing factions on the subject and prob- ably there will be little done to change the preset status so long as the leaders are anxious 10 keep other matters in the background. as appears to be the case at present.

ENGLISH, SOCIETY WOMEN.

Oaustic Comment; ON Their Love Of
4 Drugs and Liquor.
" A prominent London journal prints
the following indictment Of the habits
OF many English society women: "a
generation back it was among the
lower classes we found intemperance
rife, and then 1t was the beer Of the
people which supplied the means; to-
day we find intemperance rampant
from the highest to the lowest, the
vehicle being alcohol, impure and sim
pie, vile connections labeled indiffer-
emily brandy, whisky, gin. Our
wearicd, faded votaries of pleasure
seek temporary regeneration from
these impure sources; then, when
their day is done, they resort to their
sulphonal, trional, morphia or what
not in the vain hope Of a nights good
rest Another most appalling fact
that we have to face is the rapid In
crease In the number Of women among
the inebriate ranks.

and moral degeneration is the inevi-
table result"

The king Of mollusks lives in the In
dian and south Pacific oceans. He at.
tains to weight of 500 pounds and the
shell is Of the bivalve kind, and the
shape is about the same as that Of our
common fresh water mussel. The gi-
gantic tridacna is the largest mollusk
known to have lived on the earth since
the silurian age. 1t is found on the
bottom Of the shallow parts of the
ocean, and the large individuals have
no longer the power to move about.
They lie on one side, and all about
them the corals build up until King
Tridacna is sometimes found in a we'll
like hole in the coral formation.-St.
