THE DAY IN CONGRESS |

Washington. March S.-On this the last day but one of the Sxty-frst Congress, the. legislative wheels turned more smoothly than for several days past. The result was the passage of three Of the great appropriation measures These were the sundry civil the national and postoffice appropriation bills. Only on the postoffice bill were there much delay, debate being precipitated by the sections providing for an increase in the postal rate for certain magazines and. for a combination of the appropriations for the star and rural free delivery mail routes. The provision relating to the magazines was stricken out, while that relating to the mail routes was modifieds
 When the Senate took a recess about T o'clock until about 9, there was expec- tation that the general deficiency bill, the last of the appropriation measures to consider, would be taken up.
 It was alleged during the day that when adjournment should be taken it would be to convene at 8 o'clock tomor- TOW. +t
 The session and the life of the Congress will end at noon through constitutional limitation.
 The House. though considering num- Der of local bills, has been marking time waiting for the Senate to act on the ap- propriation measures. Conferees tonight were busy on such bills.
 Capt. Robert F.. Peary at last won rec ognition from the House for his discov- cry of the pole. The House voted to make him rear admiral on the retired list. e

London, Aug. 11th.-In the House of
Lords, in response to appeals from Lords
Lansdowne and Rosebery, Lord Morley read
twice q statement that the King would ere
ate enough peers to outyote any possible
hostile combination.
Radical were delighted 1T this contradic-
ton of the H%alsburyite contention that there
was no danger of an unlimited creation,
Lord Rosebery made the first speech. He de-
nounced the Governments exploration of
the Kings ln-experience, nevertheless the
bill should pass since the Lords will retain
force enough to oppose the Governments
dangerous proposals, and spare the Empire
the scandal of weakening its hold upon its
component parts. The Archbishop of Can
terbury declared that the debate had altered
his mind, and he had been especially infu-
enced by the callou,ness and levity with
which some lords contemplated action Tor
making the Lords and the Kingdom The
laughing stock of Europe and Of the Domin-
ions beyond the seas, which had hitherto
modelled their institutions upon those of
the United Kingdom. Lord Miner sup

not to insist upon the Lords amendments

Lord Lansdowne's amendment excluding
Home Rule, the Protestant succession and
other grave topics. Finally the bill was

Dear Sir,
The ease between the Building In
spector and teacher S. A. Smith has at last
come to a final stop As YOU may know, il
was Mr.. Smith who killed the Inspectors
horse one evening in August 1909 but as
Mr.. Smith tried to turn every thing upside
down and wanted to put all the blame on
the Inspector, there was nc other way for
the Inspector, than to start the case against
Mr.. Smith.
Now the final paper from the court in
Copenhagen has arrived and in this paper it
is said, that the yoachmau's statement, the
positions of the blood spots, agree so well with
the Inspectors statement Of the matter that
a sentence can be based hereupon. The con
clus.on is that Mr.. 5. A. Smith has to pay
to the Building Inspector $50 trcs. with
Z G > interest from Dec. 18th, 1911, and
until payment is made. A.

Thou art gone, but not forgotten.
How we miss you Henry dear.
And remember all your kindness.
As we drop q silent tear,
r Relentless death among US comes,
And bitter grief imparts,
And takes . loved one from our home
But never from our hearts.
Tho you're gone. you = not forgotten.
Never shall thy memory fade,
Loving hearts will often linger,
Around the grave where thou art laid.
But We know that thou art happy,
In the Mansions of the blest,
Where there is no pain or sorrow,
In one sweet eternal rest.
Mourn not for me nor sorrow take
But love each other for my sake,

Prepare yourselves to follow me,
And again hope to meet you
