coNeREssMEN OFF DUTY.
Tales Told in the Corridors of the Ma
 tional Capitol Between Hours.

General GrosvenOr and Champ Clark shook their hOary locks at one another in the house the other day.
 It was an awesome scene. The dis trict of Columbia appropiation bill was up. Thee is an item in it about the government insane asylum. Clark said one thing. Grosvenor said another Pretty soon they were at it hammer and tongs.
 Then it came. Grosyenor said Clark purposely misstated some one of the Illuminating Grosvenor propositions. That is. he called Clark a liar in par liamentary terms.
 "Woof! Wool shouted Clark. You dare not come outside this house and make that statement"
 "TI make it anywhere" Grosvenor yelled back.
 Logically, this was the place for pis- tols knives, howitZers, blood ans gore. Instead both were called to order and the whole thing was expunged from the record.
 Later, Grosvenor and Clark had a so cial cup of tea together. WaE in the house of representatives is not what General Sherman said it was.
 
 Senator Pettus of Alabama was rid in gthrough the state on a campaign tour. He is S5 years old and his eye sight is not as good as it once was He reached d crossroads and could not make out the signboard.
 "Can you tell me what that sign says" he asked of a man seated on a log by the roadside.

 Senator La Toilette has the distinc- ton of writing the longest speech Of the congress thus far. It has ninety five thousand words in it, and it will take the senator three days to deliver it. It Is about railroad rates, is twice as long as Senator Foraker's speech and twice as long as Senator Bailey's.
 Senator La Follette's experience is similar to that of Senator Spooner The news from San Francisco is filling the papers, and he is getting no publicity for his speech.
 Four years ago Senator Spooner was scheduled to make the great speech o1 his life defending the Philippine pol icy or the administrator. FSe made the speech, and it wasa a great one, but there never was a line of 1t printed fir the newspapers or anywhere else out side the Record. On the day he made the speech the telegraph wires leading out of Washington all went down be- cause of sleet storm ana not a record was telegraphed from the city. Spoonel might just as we'll not have spoken, sC far as the effect of his speech on the country was concerned-Washing Correspondence Rochester Democrat Chronicle.

THE sHArTuck-ARI co.
Will Pay $1,too,ooo For Its Property
 in Warren District.

The Shattuck-Arizona Copper com pany at it's annual meeting in St. Paul took the necessary action to pay for it's property at Bisbee and take up the option, says the Duluth Tribune. This means the payment of 1$,lOO,OGO. The claims are six in number, and the public is familiar with the fact they constitute one of the greatest copper mines in Arizona.
 The Shattuck is great, not alone from the extent of their ore bodies, but their average richness. The principal owners of the six claims were l.. C. Shattuck and Martin Costello of Bis bee. and others interested In the fee were H. R. Haninger, Emil Marks and the Owen and Sweet estates. The other matters of news in connection with the annual meeting of the Shattuck com pany have been published.
 The mine will become a regular pro- ducer as soon as the work of enlarging the shaft and building the aerial tram way are completed, which will be about midsummer. The record of the Shat tuck has been meteOric, and the great CT interest attaches to is because of is great assurances. The Shattuck-Ari Zona is a close corporation, and the members have themselves put up all the money required for development and for payment for the property The company now has under consideration the construction of smelters at Bisbee.
 The same people, with the addition of one or two others, control the Denn- Arizona Development company, and this property is one of large promise.
 Thomas Bardon, president of Shat tuck-Arizona: A. -I. Chisholm, the sec retary and treasurer, and Martin Pat tison, president of the Denn-Arizona- say that they feel the utmost confi- dence that the latter will take is place among the large copper producers of the Bisbee camp. The Denn has now reached a stage or development where Interesting reports may be received | from it very soon.

IGNORANCE OF HISTORY.

F. A. Whitney of Meeteesee, Wyo.. who spent s1,OOO recently rather than disturb the grave of a favOrite dog in the route of an irrigation ditch laid on his ranch, is greatly interested in all charities that help children. During a recent visit to New York he told a story about a little slum urchIn whom he had sent on a months vacation into the country.
 The lad was so ignorant" he said, that he tn ought we got mush from the mushroom and milk from the milk weed. One morning a lady pointed to a horse in a field and said:

MATER ENROUIE
 IN THE ARIZONA
Only a Few Finishing Touches to be
 Put on the Extension.

Manager Ensign of the Phoenix Light and Fuel Company, Frank AllIire, B. A. Fowler and Engineer w. A. Parish yesterday visited the Arizona canal head in an automobile. They left here about 8 o'clock, arriving at the head about Il o'clock and got back to Phoe- nix in the early evening.
 It was learned from them last night that about a thousand inches of water was running in the canal and the fu- ture looks better than it has, though there is still some little discourage ment That the water last night was no further down the canal than the crossing of the Mcdowell road, was due largely to a leak at the old waste gate in the Arizona, which was discovered
 by the Phoenix party on it's way home.
 From Evergreen the word was sent
 back to Superintendent McDermott at
 the head and it is presumed that this leak was stopped during the night if possible or in any evef.t will be today.
 The extension has been practically completed though there are few more finishing touches needed and there IS also a little more strengthening to be done at the point of the last large
 break This work will keep the teams
 busy for a day or two and after that the entire force will be concentrated
 on building a dam across the river just
 below the intake of the extension. The head of the extension is about forty feet wide and the water is flowing into the canal about a foot deep. The river is somewhat lower than 1t has been,
 owing probably to the cooler weather, but there is nevertheless a big body
 of water flowing a. this point.
 Carafu1 attention was given the sub feet Of how to get the most water into the canal with the least expense and it seemed to be the concensus of opinion that it would be wise 10 make Q rather more permanent dam than had been hitherto planned, that is use more rock and less brush. It is thought that by making the dam quite heavy it will raise the water higher and also. by req

VOLCANIC ACTIVITY IN ALASKA

Volcanic activity is so commonly as sociated with the palms of the tropics that it is somewhat difficult to think of subterranean fires burning fiercely through the hard crust of the cold northland. Yet one of the most exten- sive volcanic belts of the globe lies on the southern coast of our Alaska prov ince This necklace of mammoth peaks comprises fifty seven active or recently extinct volcanoes. with alti- tudes ranging from the I4,OO0 feet or Wrangel, above the head of Cooks in- let down to the few hundred feet of the Bogoslofs beyond the western ex- tremity of the Alaskan peninsula.

~ All womenT work - some in their homes, some in church, and some in the whirl of society. And in stores, mills and shops tens of thousands are on the never-ceasing treadmill, earning their daily bread.
 All are subject to the same physical laws; all suffer alike from the same physical disturbance, and the nature of their duties, in many cases, quickly drifts them into the horrors of all kinds of female complaints, tumors, alteration, falling and displace- ments or perhaps irregularity or suppression, causing backache, ner- vousness, irritability and lassitude.
 They especially require an invigorat- ing, sustaining medicine which will strengthen the female organism and enable them to bear easily the fatigues of the day, to sleep we'll at night, and to rise refreshed and cheerful,
 How distressing to see a woman struggling to earn livelihood or per form her household duties when her back and head are aching, she is so tired she can hardly drag about or stand up, and every movement causes pain, the origin of which is due to some derangement of the female or ganism.
 Miss F. Orser, of 14 Warrenton Street, Boston, tells women how to avoid such suffering; she writes:
 Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
 ''I suffered misery for several years with 1 female irregularities. My back ached; I had bearing-down pains, and frequent headaches lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Con

I could not sleep and could hardly drag around. I consulted two physicians without relief, and a last resort, 1 tried Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and to my surprise, every ache and pain left me. I gained ten pounds and am in perfect health"
 Miss Pearl Ackers, of 327 North Sum- mer Street, Nashville, Tenn, writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham;-
 "I suffered with painful periods, severe backache, bearing-down pains, pains across the abdomen; was very nervous and irrita- ble, and my trouble grew worse every month
 My physician failed to help me and decided to try Lydia E.. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I soon found it was doing me good. All my pains and aches disappeared, and no longer fear my monthly periods"
 Lydia E, Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound is the unfailing cure for all these troubles. It strengthens the proper muscles, and displacement with all it's horrors will no more crush you.
 Backache. dizziness, fainting, bear ing-down pains, disordered stomach, moodiness, dislike of friends and society all symptoms of the one cause-wiil be quickly dispelled, and it will make you strong and well.
 You can tell the story of your sui ferings to woman, and receive help ful advice free of cost. Address Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. The present Mrs. Pinkham is the daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty. five years she has, under her direction and since her decease, been advising sick women free of charge.
