There are few people, very few indeed
who are not fond of enjoyment, and 1t is
safe to say that Alexandria possesses as
mauy first class amusement houses az
any city of like size in theUnited States
The splendid vaudeville presented at the
Opera House and Surprise Theatre is
of GLASS that will command attention.
The managers of these popular thesIers
are spsriDg no expense to keep good
show ou all the time. AT the Alex1n'
dria Amusement Company the pictures
shown nightly are selected with care and
none but the very best are chosen. The
handsome prize given away each night
is another feature attached to this house
which makes it sought after.
The frst three nights of next week
the people of this city will have another
chance to see that old familiar drama,
"Ten Nights in BsrroOm" played at
the Opera House by local talent who
are we'll versed in their various roles.
When presented few yesrs ago the

favor of the duty on rough lumber Of
81. so a thousand feet. Mr.. McOomber,
introduced an amendment fixing the
rate at 81 a thousand feet the same as II
appears in the Payne bill.
MIR. McOumber said that there had
been no evidence that 1t cost more to
introduce lumber In this country than
in Canada.

taken on the McOumber amendment
and 1t was defeated, "a to Al.
The breaking of party lines was more
pronounced than In any other vote that
has been taken In the Senate. Four
teen republicans voted for the lower rate
on lumber and eleven democrats voted
for for the higher late, making a total
OF twenty-five insurgents.
MIR. McOumber then presented an
amendment reducing the diferential
duty designed to cover he cost OF finish
ing lumber. He said that the difieren-
tials in the Aldrich bill we're far In ex-
cess OF the difference in coat In this
country and Canada.
Mr.. Aldrich produced letter from
Burlington, Vermont, 10 show that the
cost to dress lumber on two sides with
tongue and groove was 81 so.
Mr.. Tillman said it cost no more TO
tongue and groove lumber because it
was done in the same operation. Then.
turning to Senator Aldrich, Mr. Tillman
said: "Bnt everything that the senator
from Rhode Island says goes. The
senator is the Senate. And what | want
to know Is why he don't hurry up aud
get through with this BILL"
Mr.. Aldrich replied that he would not
delay the Senate one moment more than
WAS necessary.
Mr.. McOumber's amendment reduc-
ing the differeutial on finished lumber
WAS defeated 80 to 40. Sixteen repub-
leans we're among those who voted for
the amendment and Ten democrats voted
with Mr.. Aldrich against the amend
meDt.
Mr.. McLsurin (dem. Miss. offered an
amendment providing that there should
De no special duty on finished lumber.
1t was lost on a viva yoce vote.
The committee amendment on the
lumber schedule was then adopted by
vote of so to %. The following demo-
