MAY POSTPONE STATEHOOD.


Washington. March 15.-WhetheI
the caucus on statehood to be partici-
pated In by republicans Of the house
Thursday afternoon 10 to bind" those
who attend was an absorbing topic Of
discussion among "insurgent" mem-
bers Of the party Wednesday. No con-
clusion has been reached. For this
reason a conference Of those republic
cans who wish to concur In the senate
amendments has been called for one
o'clock Thursday. At this conference
It will be determined whether insur-
gents shall attend the caucus or shall
stay away. /.
Speaker Cannon says he has not yet
lost faith in the overwhelming repub-
lican majority which voted for the
house bin. He received many tele-
grams Wednesday. and admits that
Influences are working to secure q
concurrence in the senate measure.
The caucus Thursday will. he says. de-
termine this point.
Mr.. Cannon made the significant
remark that people seemed to forget
that there was three months session
of the present congress alluding to
the coming short session--in which the
two houses might get together on the
statehood bill.
He says there will be a conference
between the two houses on the meas
ure, but the. allusion to the short ses-
sion in this connection Is taken to
mean that should the caucus Thursday
develop lack Of votes to maintain
the house bill, the matter Of house
action may be postponed until the next
session Of congress.

and Beauty

Beauty is the external proof of health; with failing health comes failing beauty, Wom- ans delicate organism is fre- quently over-taxed by arduous household duties, and the de- mands of society. The con- stant drain upon her vitality weakens her nervous system. The penalty is a tired, worn out, exhausted condition which destroys her appetite, robs her of rest, and at intervals causes much suffering and distress. When these conditions exist, the weakened nerves must be strengthened. Dr.Miles 'Nervine will do this. It stimulates the action of all the organs, brings refreshing sleep, and drives away that look of care.
 'T have taken pr. Miles Restorative Nervine for years, as did my mother before me. Whenever I feel tired, worn-out, or have headache, l always take the Nervine and it strengthens me. I consider it a great remedy for nervousness or debility.

LEAD POISONING.

Chas. Rounds, the painter, has been
having an experience that he would
gladly have sidetracked. The fumes
of turpentine, carrying Lad in dan
gerous quantities put him to sleep and
doctors, nurses and friends failed to
arouse him until after twenty four
hours. He is convalescent now and
thinks he will be back to business again
soon, yet he falls asleep easily and re-
quires vigorous shake to arouse him.
To those who have seen the action of
lead and turpentine on the human sys-
tenn there is no question as to the cause
of his weakness California Courier.

citizens in business and residence prop

faith of the citizenship in this city.
Their advance has been gradual, but it
has only been in keeping with the gen

in our city. People who formerly re-
sided here, on their return visits, are
quick to see the change in conditions.

BACHELORS vs.. OLD MAIDS.

The thought occurred to me the other
day to figure out if l could with the aid
of common sense and the surrounding
environments, why it is that there are
so many case hardened old bachelors in
this who have never succumbed to
the charms of the fair sex-so many of
which inhabit this land of ours. These
fellows have hardened their hearts and
stiffened their necks for the past 35 or
40 years, withstanding every PROPOSE
ton from feminine standpoint, and
never thinking seriously of casting
their lot with some fair maid who
would make his home little heaven on
earth, and in later years their noble
sons and daughters would bring honor
and prestige to the family name.
But now, these same fellows, who
might have been living a happy life,
are sitting around the streets watching
the pretty women go by, and Launching
boys in the side barely out of his teens,
telling him that There's an opening"
for him, when the man himself ought
to be seeking after chance, instead of
putting such nonsense into the boys
head.
But the old gentleman feels as if it's
all up with him-he has passed the bor-
der line. He does't know any more how
to court a girl than hog knows how to
fly. He's never had any experience
along that line, and his awkwardness is
painful to behold.
A man who has passed the age of so
years and is still an old bachelor, has
certainly had one or two things to hap
pen to him during life. He must have
been mighty timid and bashful in his
young days, or else some girl has made
him believe she thought the world and
all of him and then cast him off after
she had stolen his heart, leaving him
sad and detected man, but much wiser
in love affairs.
Bachelordom may be bliss to some
men, but when it comes down to plain
facts, such state of living is little
short of a nuisance because he has to
sew on his own buttons, darn his own
socks, and maybe cook sometimes.
Not many days, the writer overheard
conversation between some girls, who
were not very old and not exceedingly
young. One of them exclaimed, 81
wouldn't marry the best man on the
face of the earth," and then another
chimed in, ''Thems my sentiments" 1
