Eighty MIaer bills Passed aaa Earl!
Adjournment Taken.


Eighty Mlaer bills Passed aaa EARLY
Adjournment Taken.
WASHINGTON Jan. TO- The senate
made 1t plain today that it had had yester-
day all that it wants to hear for the pres
ent of the Moroccan question. There were
two opportunities TO resume consideration
of the subject, but both were avoided APP
parently with the assent Of all the members
and the senate adjourned at compare
lively early hour rather than take it up.
Notwithstanding the early adjournment
great deal of business was disposed Of
About eighty bills were passed. leaving on
the calendar only six or seven measures
OF the bills passed a large majority grant
private pensions and many were bridge
bills. One OF the bills favorably acted upon
appropriates 100000 for the appropriate
marking of the graves of confederate SOL
diers who died in northern prisons during
the civil war.
For the rest of the session the senate
gave attention in turn to the question OF
the salaries paid to Panama canal officials,
TO the pure food bill and the merchant
marine shipping bill, but without taking
action on either of those subjects. The
canal subject was discussed by Mr.. Sim
mons and the pure food bill by Mr.. Hey
burn. The only action taken on the ship
ping bill was that of reading il at length.
At the beginning OF today's session in the
senate Mr.. Crane introduced a joint resolu-
ton requesting the president Ito open nego-
tiations with the other nations TO secure
the naturalization of the Philippine islands
and the recognition of their Independence
whenever the same shall be- granted 10 them

When Bishop Comes Only

Every summer, when the coast Of

approach that foggy and f%orbidding
country. the bishop of Newfoundland
makes \ trip as far north as the ice
permits. He finds much to do, says
the Youths Companion, in giving c0m.

In the acquisition.
There are o many neighbors in
Labrador, but there were enough in
this instance to fiji both rooms OF his
house. When the bishop had been
warmed and welcomed and was pre-
pared to speak the words that would
fill the Seal islands with rejoicing he
discovered that the union was impos-
sible, because tho bride and BRIDE
gr'om were too nearly related.
The church fOrbids this match" he
declared, and great was the sensation.
The bride sank down in tears of nor
tifcatioh and temper and the bride.

ment. Something had to be done, AMI
quickly, for it might be a year before
a clergyman appeared on thai coast
again.
"Oh. we'll, there's plenty Of Others"
said the king, Frightening as ne sur

man In the company and asked: will

Absinthe for a Schoolboy.

made in one of the communal schools
in Paris. A class master noticed that
after ten O'Clock every morning one
Of his pupils. a little boy of seven,
seemed to become a prey to fits of de-
lirium. He thumDed his neighbors,
and when repro.ad by the master
rolled on he floor shrieking and
%groaning like II possessed. The ch!ld
was constantly in the habit of asking
leave of absence for a minute or two,
ana the master had him watched. II
was found that he carried a small bot
tie Of absinthe in his pocket. and took
a sin IS often as he could escape from
the classroom. 1t has been proved
that tire child's mother filed the bot.
tie for him every morning. DO
