INTO bad weather. and the Cinnamon became
more alarmed Thoroughly convinced that the
snip was hoodooed. the men left her when she
put into Hong Kong An entirely new crew was
shipped, and the joss was slowed away in the
captains trunk.

Your correspondent has seen the naval
bin disposed Of in one day, carrying
$500 600
Thus 1t will be seen that as mat
ter of fact the senate is really further
advanced in it's work than the house.
The prediction is now made that
congress will not adjourn until the
middle of June and many statesmen
place the date at the first of July. 1t
is believed the former date is nearer
correct.
Fences Need Fixing.
Two potent stimulants will operate
to expedite the efforts of both branches
in clearing the decks. First, the de-
sire of members of the house to get
back to their districts and get at poll
teal fences. The democrats think
they stand good chance to win over
the house and are eager to get at it..
The republicans are equally anxious to
prepare for the attacks of the demo-
Gratis in this direction.
Second, the hot weather 1t may
sound childish to say that the law
makers can be influenced by tempera-
ture, but the fact remains that sizzling
weather acts as great eXpediter and
prod. When the hot weather appears
early in May presaging the boiling
humidity of June the statesman accel-
crates his speed and things are doing.
A hot spring may be depended upon to
cut two weeks from the last end of the
session, and it is this knowledge which
suggests June Is as about the latest
date for final adjournment.
