He thought they would return nome ant

Gammill of Frontier defended the western
assessor and said he knew his business as

of the state. Brown and Miller OF Lam
caster were inclined to defeI.d the county
assessor. II was brought out his duty is
nothing more or less than to arrive at the
actual value of property, and this. in con-
junction with the desire of doing away with
the office entirely, led the senate to post

until this time. The senate is still two leg

speeches were made under license of gen

were discussed.
Mr.. Sims (Tenn) talked Of the dangers
OF carbon monoxide in Illuminating gas.
Mr.. Russell CMo.) took issue with the presi-
dent in vetoing the James river dam bill.
Mr.. B~roadhead (Pa.) made a plea for the
retention OF marines as a branch Of the

a legal argument in which he held that the
United States was without the power OF
authority to sue a newspaper for libel.
About 500 pension bills were passed.
Previous to taking up the Indian bill brief
exercises commemorative of Lincoln's birth
day were held. The chaplain feelingly re-

The exercises opened with the singing OF
America. by a special choir and. tie audi
ence, then the invocation by Rev. Luther
p. Ludden.
Judge Lee s. Estelle OF Omaha delivered
the principal address of the evening, telling
OF the life and character of Abraham Lin
coin, drawing from the character inspira-
ton for the young men and women of to-
day. He went into details in discussing
the early struggles of the martyred presi-
dent, the %hardships he endured, the oh
stacles he overcame and the final triumph
of honesty, intelligence and hard work.
Other speakers were F. NJ. Hall of Lin-
coin, K. p. Brown of Arbor. a member Of
the senate; Roscoe c. Ozman of Lincoln.
and Hon. Jesse B. STROBE. who delivered
the Gettysburg address. Judge STROBE was
a member of the army led by Lincoln.
One OF the very interesting features of
the evening was the stereopticon views of
Lincoln and scenes connected with his life
and career. These views were shown by
Prof. II. Caldwell of the State university.
A collection was taken for the Lincoln
monument.
During the day special exercises were
held in all OF the schools in the city.
