from the house 90 per cent. of the time was a lie on its face, and that he was
 there 95 per cent. of the time, as every
 member who cared to inquire could
 ascertain.
 MT. Lacey, of Iowa, had read the statute relating to the docking of mem
 bers' pay, and he was followed by MT. fGrosvenor, of Ohio, who explained the reasons for the statute. MT. Dear mond, of Missouri, asked that the mil nority views of the judiciary commit tee on the statute be printed, While this colloquy was in progress the friends of Messrs. Gaines and Mahon were engaged in an effort to bring about a reconciliation, in which they were successful, and at it's conclusion MT. Mahon rose to a question of per- sonal privilege. He stated that he did not desire to impugn the motive which prompted MT. Gaines to utter what was an untruth about his absence from the house, but he desired to say that his informant was incorrect.
 He had no desire to offend the gen. tleman from Tennessee, whom he class ed among his friends, but he wanted MT. Gaines to understand that the per son from whom he obtained his inform ation misrepresented the facts.
 Not to be outdone in chivalry, MT. Gaines immediately arose, and, show ing deep feeling, said that the gentle man from Pennsylvania had always been his friend, but that he had been goaded beyond endurance, not only to- day, but on a former occasion. He re- gretted extremely the turn affairs had taken.
 Are you satisfied with that?" he asked, pointing to MT. Mahon.
 For answer MT. Mahon rushed across the chamber. The two men elapsed hands amid loud applause.
 MT. Smith, of Iowa, facetlously re- marked that as war had been the sub feet of the whole days proceeding, re- sulting in almost personal encoun- -er,' he thought the house was in no .emper to proceed further with the for .ifcation bills, and he accordingly | moved that the committee rise.

WILLIAM ALLEN WHITES SER
 MON

The American Magazine, under its new editorship, publishes a remarkable
 article on The Partnership of Socie- ty." by William Allen White, the bril-
 liant Kansas editor, essayist and nov
 elist. It is in essence a great sermon,
 fuH of stimulating and strengthening
 wisdom for every man and woman-so
 clear and seizlng in its philosophy that
 1t carries the awakened and eager mind
 along With absorbed attention to a
 splendid and uplifting conclusion. Ey-
 cry paragraph Is as interesting as the
 following:
 Money does not pass current in the
 real world of service It is false coin there. Churchmen need not worry about taintedmoney. If it is tainted
 God will not accept it. For what God needs in this world is not money-but service-service that comes from the God Implanted instincA. to help ones fellows. The failures of this life may heap the golden evidences of their fail- ures mountains high, and donate them to the cause of righteousness, and they will avail less than the testimony and the honest service of one poor man who has succeeded by living manfully. Men cannot cheat and steal and kill and oppress their fellows, and then buy their way into the happiness that comes from real usefulness to man. kind; the peace that passeth under standing, is not to be purchased with stolen money even though the robber shall present it as a sacrifice, and even though he shall lay it upon the altar in seven figures. The millionaire of to- day may not buy indulgences any more than the rich men of Martin Luther's time, Christ said to the Magdalen: Go sin no more, and to the rich young man, Sell that thou hast, give to the poor, and then come and follow me- Christ had no more thought of spread ing his cause by the money of one sin her than by the money of another, And the ehiefest proof of Christs di- vinity is not in the miracles, nor in the signs and wonders, but in the fact that He knew that the gtaring of the world is not turned toward the millennium by money or by the power that comes through worldly success, but by service of man to man, without money, and the power that money can buy. i Money has its place In our social or ganizations. It can feed the bodies of men; but dollar nor million dollars never fed a soul. For souls grow only IS life has grown on this planet, by service to ones fellow creatures"
 In connection with the article there is ] note as follows:
 "The old classification would place William Allen White as humorist, be- ore the term lost it's complimentary meaning and had to be justified to be pleasing to the person to whom it ;s

pox of puppets, under reactionary and

 Who are opposed to it.
 In that we must hold them to be dreadfully misguided. Their ultimate

We can under stand and sympathize with the inn patience of the Russian people for gov- ernment reforms and their resentment against the evils of the bureaucracy, but with their resort to systematic or sporadic murder it is impossible for law loving people, no matter how lib- erty loving, to sympathiZe. Theorists may discuss mechanically whether re- course to such methods is ever neces- sary. expedient or justifiable. Practi- cal students of affairs will not be con Vlnced that in this case it was neces- sary, expedient or justifable, or that it will prove for the good of the cause which it's practitioners have at heart.- New York Tribune.

HARD TIMES AT ALBANY.
Why Legistlators No Longer Fir

Why Legislators No Longer Find
 Things as They Used to Be.
 Albany is not cheerful place these days. In that city set on a hill, that
 cannot be hid, statesmen are not at
 their ease Indeed, some of them are
 beginning to wonder if it is worth
 while to make the great sacrifices in-
 cldental to serving the State in the
 halls of legislation.
 To begin with, the legislator is se- parated from his family. If at the end
 of the week he desires to pass Sunday In his home town he has to open his pocketbook and pay his fare like any,
 body else. It isn't the money, but the humiliation of being placed on level with the ordinary citizen. That is what hurts
 Then there is the Governor. He is no politician, which is bad. He has no respect for politicians. which is worse. And the public is rather pleased with him for both reasons, which is worst oi all,
 The new administration has begun without single member of even the senate having been taken into the con fidence of the Executive. And not only do diplomatic relations not exist be- tween the legislature and the executive chamber, but there is no mutual friend who Is in a position to act as an em- issary and bring matters into the harmonious relation which proved so beneficial in the past.
 Of course, the Senate may block But there is just one diff ficulty; the populace is watching it, and may prove to have no sympathy with the conservatives, who pine for the old times and the old familiar faces.
 Republicans outside the Legislature 1 are acting in very cruel, inconsider- ate, thoughtless and altogether un- manner of a bill which | would prevent State Assemblymen and | Senators from doing things for which ] 8 Representative or Senator of the Congress of the United States could l be sent to jail. One section of the pro posed measure reads as follows: No of fhe Legislature after his election and during his continuance in office shall act or agree to act as at- -orney or counsel in any action pro- ,eeding or litigation whatsoever, to, 'or or on behalf of any State depart nent, bureau, officer or civil or mili- ary commission whatever. Every per 'on offending against this section shall oe deemed guilty of a misdemeanor md shall be imprisoned not more than wo years and fined not more than $5,- o0."
 Could anything be more absurd?I What are we coming to? Why, it would lot be surprising If in the long run he more talented of our statesmen eigned and shook the dust of the hills f Albany from their feet at the same ime giving no fourther explanation of heir departure than the question, Wha! are we here for2"-From the lew York Evening Sun

HOPE TO LAST FOR PONCE.
Not Until Marcas Arrives Without Her
 Will Owners Give Up.

New York, Jan. 10-The steamship Ponce of the New York and Porto Rico Steamship line, which sailed from Ponce, P. R., on December 26, and was due at this port on January 1, is still missing and the belief that the yes sePs delay was due to some mechan- lcal accident is giving away to the fear that she is lost She was last spoken on December 2S by the sailing ship Shenandoah, since which nothing has been seen or heard of her, notwith- standing all the eircumstantial ru- mors originating at different places on the Atlantic coast from Florida north ward.
 The strong hope to which the officers of the steamship company cling is the non-arrayal Cf the steamer Maraeas from Trinidad. now four days behind her schedule time. The Maracas ordi- nary course is the same as that usual ly taken by the Ponce, for a consider able part of the voyage, and it is hop ed that she has fallen in with the probably disabled Porto Rican vessel and is towing her to some port. Until the Maracas arrives and disproves this theory, hope for the Ponce's safety will not be abandoned.
 The most disquieting report that has reached here to-day was a message from Governor Winthrop of Porto Rico who says the steamer Caracas reported sighting derelict 15O feet long near where the Ponce was sighted by the The dimensions of the reported derelict, however, do not agree with the description of the Ponce, which is S17 feet long.

 With rush MT. Gaines reached the center of the chamber, making direct toward the gentleman from Pennsyl- vania, insisting as he went that no man could call him liar without personal chastisement,
 The house was in an uproar by this time, the chair adding to the noise, if not to the confusion, by pounding the desk with his gavel. His efforts finally caused the head of the gavel to fly off and it bounded into the body of the house. almost striking one of the mem bers.
 The rush of MT. Gaines upon his ad- versary brought a dozen members be- fore the speakers desk. Messrs Ollie James, of Kentucky; Taylor, of Ala bama; Bell, of Georgia; Williams, of Mississippi, the minority leader, and Stafford, of Wisconsin, grabbed Mr. Gaines, who, resisting, was borne back to his seat.
 MT. Mahon, standing in the first aisle on the republican side, seemed to wait for the impact which never came. With MT. Gaines in his seat, the Pennsylva- nian continued his speech of explana- tion as to how he came to be connected with the invoking of an old statute compelling members to forfeit pay for the time absent from the house.

 Forgive me. George. I am very nervous. But we are in such trouble.'' And the beautiful daughter of the President of the P. D. & 9. buried her face in her hands.
 What is the matter?" asked George anxiously
 Why, it's these horrid railroad prosecutions. Pas road has just been indicted. The lawyers are fighting for delay, but the result is inevitable"
 'Is it rebate case?"
 Yes"
 Yes"
 Well, what will it amount to? The road will be convicted, no doubt, and fined. But there's nothing so dreadful in that"
 But the trouble is that Pa is so old fashioned that he never gave any re- bates. They simply can't convict, and his road will be exposed as probably the only road in the country that has not given rebates. Think of it, George! We will lose caste in railroad circles Pa doesn't care--he's so peculiar-but Ma and will never be able to hold up our heads again Oh, how often have we urged him to g-g-get into the game and get some of the g-g-graft!'
