A Bridge of Crocodfles.

A traveller writes of port ill north western India: "The great sight of Karachi is the sacred crocodile pre- serve at Magar f'ir. some seven miles off. There gre hot springs here which feed a shallow tank containing nearly hundred crocodiles. The story, usu- ally thought to be fictitious, of the Eng lishman who for bet crossed the tank by Jumping successively from the backs of these crocodiles is based on fact. The hero of this foolhardy feat was a certain Lieutenant Beresford, a friend of Sir F. F. Burton. When Bur ton and his companion were visiting the crocodiles' tank they noticed that these reptiles and certain islets of reeds happened to make an almost continu- ous bridge across the tank. This prompted the daring subaltern to haZ- ard the feat of crossing by hopping from one crocodile to another. To the amazement of the spectators he suc- ceeded in this apparently mad attempt. Sir Richard Burton had already suc- cessfully performed an equally daring feat. He managed to muzzle a croco- dile by means of a lasso and then jumped on the reptiles back and en- joyed somewhat Zigzag ride"

Just before he had left for the city he and his young love-she being then nearly fifteen-had plighted their troth there, and the little girl had promised to one day keep house for him in re- ality. A month after he left her she sickened and died. Her parents. who adored her, had placed her in the copse she loved so we'll. leaving it as it was when she was emerging from child hood
 Cuthbert knelt for few moments beside the grave. then stood looking down upon 1t. There was that perfect silence which permits one to live in past scenes. He saw her, tall and 1.-the, two massive coils of chestnut hair, her blue eyes looking into his. For the moment he was where he had been, not where he was. Then tears began to we'll up in his eyes.
 He was recalled to the present by a rustic of skirts coming through the nar- row opening and, turning. saw his wife.

Inside Your Bones.

People usually imagine that their bones are of solid mineral construc- tion. without any feeling in them. AS a matter of fact, there are blood ves- sels and nerves inside the bones just as there are outside. During amputa- tion of li:>b much more pain is felt when the bone is attacked than when the flesh is being cut through. Through the marrow which is inside the bones run the nerves and blood vessels, en- tering the bones from the flesh without by little holes. Nature adapts the bony structure of various animals to their habits in very interesting manner. Sluggish creatures, like the sloth, have solid bones whereas the bones of the deer and the antelope are comparative ly light, so that they may run fast, and the leg bones of the ostrich are hollow. You will find in the bones of any skel- eton the application of mechanical principles which have only become known to man through the processes of laborious and long considered in- vention.

 "It may have been cut down." she said, seeing that he did not go on.
 "No, it is there still"
 "How do you know?'
 "Piease, Rosa, don't talk any more about the copse."
 The young wife glanced at her hus- band inquiringly, then turned the sub- ject.
 A few days before their expected de parture Cuthbert announced that a matter of business he wished to attend to while at home would necessitate his driving to the county seat. Rosa asked if she could not go with him. but he told her he might be detained over night and there were no suitable ac- commodations for her in the place. He kissed her and, jumping into buggy, drove down the road. Ten minutes lat and followed him.
 Cuthbert, after driving awhile, drew up on the edge of wood where he tethered his horse, then walked toward house near by in the center of large grounds. He did not enter by the gate. but. circling, climbed fence in the rear and proceeded to clump of tall brush. Going directly to an opening. the location of which he knew exactly. he entered an open space.

 "Yes, Rosa, dear; I quite approve of your plan." Then he sat silent and thoughtful With woman's quick eye she detected sad memory
 The wedding over, they took train for the village in which Cuthbert Deane had been born and from which i've years before he had gone to seek his fortune in the city. His widowed mother was living on the old place and being averse to travel had declined to be present at the ceremony, saying she would be at home to receive the bridal couple. The first day after their ar rival they visited every object Cuth- bert had told his wife about, most of them being very much as he had left them, except that some of them had dwindled.

 Cuthbert looked serious and said nothing. Had he not changed his ex- pression she might have forgotten all about the copse; as it was her curiosity was excited.

down and the controversy proceeded
on another amendment suggested by
Mr.. Bacon, making the proposed court
review apply only to orders and re-
quirements not involving the exercise
of discretion by the commission"
The debate was legal and technical
and was participated in by Senators
Bacon, Long, Bailey, Foraker and
others.
The Bacon amendment was voted

TilIman Charges Betrayal
During the debate Senators Tillman
made an attack upon the president.
He referred to the Long amendment,
saying that he did SO with the purpose
of making an explanation. He said
that senator's probably would be sur
nErised to know that he had been in
conference with the president. He
then, contrary to his usual practice,
read statement of his negotiations
regarding the bill, as follows:
ION Saturday, March 81, was in
formed by ex-senator William e.
Chandler, that President Roosevelt
had sent to him note asking him to
call at the White House that evening;
that he obeyed the call and had been
told by the president that he desired
through him to get into communica-
tion with me as the senator in charge
Of the railroad rate bill and with Sen
ator Bailey, representing the demo-
Gratis of the senate, for the purpose
of ascertaining whether there could
be such united action among the
friends in the senate of the Hepburn
bill as would make sure majority in
its favor and against injurious amend
ments.
Says He Was Lured.
Mr.. Chandler said the president
named various republican senators
who he thought were true friends of
the bill, but said that it might re-
quire all the democrats to defeat OBJ
noxious amendments. Mr.. Chandler
said the president had stated that he
had come to complete disagreement
with the senatorial lawyers, who were
trying to injure or defeat the bill by
ingenious constitutional amendments,
naming Senator Knox in addition to
Senators Spooner and Foraker; that
the president stated carefully and de-
liberately the basis upon which he
thought there should be cooperation,
viz: an amendment expressly grant
ing court review, but limiting it to
two points, first, an inquiry whether
the commission had acted beyond it's
authority ultra wires, and, second,
whether it had violated the constitu-
tional rights of the carrier. Mr. Chan
der stated that the president repeated
The independent. [volume] (Lincoln, Neb.) 1902-1907, 1906-05-17

nocent of knowledge of the change
/ He admitted that he had hesitated
about entering upon the negotiation
with the president because of bis
lust indignation for a past wrong"
but he had concluded to pocket his
pride in the interests of great cause.
He also said that Senator Allison had
promised him twenty-five votes on the
republican side! hence he had felt
justified in his assurances to the pres
ident's representatives.
Sees AIdrich in Saddle.
It would be useless to pursue the
argument, said Mr.. Tillman.
"The senator from Rhode Island
(Mr. Aldrich) has resumed control of
the republicans" he said.
AS slight murmur of mirth ran
through the senate, Mr.. Tillman re-
marked: The senator need not shake
his head. But / simply want to say
that he has come nearer being un-
horsed and thrown in the ditch. than
at any time since have been here"
This produced an emphasized smile
in the senate.
Turning his attention again to the
president, he said if the president
stood fast to his original declaration,
we would have won out
"As for his treatment of me, I shall
say nothing"
He closed by asking whether or not
the president should be entitled to
the glory of the legislation which was
conceived in democratic convention.
He would leave the answer to the peo-
pie of the country.
Carter in Defense
Senator Carter of Montana was rec
ognized. He remarked, with a smile
that seemed to be understood, that il
the Hon. William E. Chandler, form
erly senator from New Hampshire,
should be given the floor of the senate
for the rest of the session much light
might be thrown on the subject.
II should be delighted to hear from
Senator Chandler" interjected Mr..
Tillman. "And should also be glad to
hear from the president and Mr..
Moody"
Mr. Carter, after saying he believed
the president had been consistently in
favor of the house bill, made re-
joinder to remark he ascribed to
Senator Bailey, who had, he said, re-
ferred TO him (Carterl as an insig-
nificant member of the body

zen than to be afflicted with going

tie of egotism and strutting through
an atmosphere of vanity, considering
all other men puny."
Senator Bailey at once replied. The
senator from Montana had misquoted
him, he said. He had not referred to
Mr.. Carter as an humble or incon-
spicuous member of the body, but that
his services in behalf of this bill had
been inconspicuous.
Bailey Reviews Interview.
The senator might just as well treat
himself to the novel sensation Of be-
ing accurate once in awhile, said Mr..
Bailey. Never, he continued, no mat
ter what might be said on the floor of
the senate, should he allow himself to
be provoked to violent controversy
He reviewed his interviews with the
attorney general, and then said there
was one great moral to be drawn from
the unfortunate circumstances of this |
bill. That was the danger of the re-
suit of interference with the legis-
lative branch of the government by
the executive. However, bad as the
present situation was, he believed that |
the future would draw valuable les
