TUESDAY, FEB. 19, 1889.
IN CONGRESS YESTERDAY.
SENATE.
Washington. Feb. 18. Mr. Vest
moved to reconsider the vote by
which 'the conference report on the
direct tax bill was agreed to on Sat
urday last, and said that his object
was to give bis reasons for opposing
the direct tax bill.
Finally the matter went over, and
a message was sent to the House re
questing the return of the bill.
The credentials of Mr. Colquitt
for his new senatorial term were
presented by Mr. Brown, read and
placed on fife.
Mr. Cullom, from the Committee
oa Territories, reported back the
House bill to organize the territory
of Oaklahoina, and it was placed
on the calendar.
Mr. Allison, from the Committee
on Appropriations, reported back
the Sundry Civil Appropriation bill,
with amendments, and gave notice
that he would call it up to morrow.
The Senate then passed the House
bill to provide for taking the
eleventh and subsequent censuses.
Among the amendments agreed to
by the Senate were the following:
requiring the population schedule
to include an inquiry as to the num
ber of negroes, mulattoes, quad
roons and octoroons; allowing to
enumerators a compensation of five
cents each for each surviving sol
dier or soldier's widow returned
and enquiring enumerators to give
names, organizations and length of
service of surviving soldiers, sailors
andmarines, or their widows.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Mr. Hatchet, of Missouri, called
attention to the fact that in July
last Mr. Conger, of Iowa, from the
Committee on Agriculture, had pre
. sented a substitute bill regulating
' the sale of compound lard, and that
it had been placed upon the House
calendar. This he maintained had
been an improper refeaence, and he
held that the bill should be referred
io the Committee of the Whole, and
securing a place on the calendar of
that committee as of the date of its
presentation. Mr. Hatch made a
motion to that effect which prevail
ed.
Mr. Dunn, of Arkansas, from the
Committee on Mei chant Marine and
Fisheries, called up the bill to pro
vide for the better protection of the
fur seals and salmon fisheries of
Alaska. After some debate the bill
was recommitted with instructions
to the Committee on Merchant and
Marine Fisheries to report back
with an amendment, reducing from
twenty to ten years the term of
lease of the seal fisheries, and au
thorizing any one to bring suit
against the lessees to recover ten
dollars for every seal taken in the
excess of the number fixed by law.
Mr. Crisp then called up the Cali
fornia election case, of Sullivan
arainst Felton, against which Mr.
cKenna, ef California, raised the
question of consideration. On a
rising vote the Republicans outvot
ed the Democrats 78 to 74 and the
yeas and nays were ordered. Then
the body of Republicans refrained
from voting; and left the House
without a quorum, the vote upon
taking up the election case standing
yeas 130, nays 12.

The remains of the late Robert
Primrose were interred this morn
ing in Uakdaie Cemetery. Tne ser
vices were conducted by Rev. Mr.
Hoge, at St. Andrew's Church, and
they were very sad and impressive.
The attendance was very large and
the great esteem in which the de
ceased young gentleman was held
was evidenced by the fact that every
officer and office employe of the At
lantic Coast Line who was in the
city attended the obsequies.
The funeral procession was a veay
long one. The pall bearers were

AS A LOT OF SECOND HAND BUGGIES
.Patrick Henry
uttered a sublime truth when he
said, "It is natural for man to in
dulge in the illusions of hope. We
are apt to shut our eyes against a
painful truth and listen to that song
of that siren till she transforms us
into beasts." We are apt to shut
our eyes while colds, catarrh or con
sumption are getting the better of
us, hoping not, when our plain duty
is to get some remedy like the Gold
en Medical Discovery of Dr. Pierce,
and take it. We should not listen
to the song of the siren, but rather
heed Longfellow, who tells us to
"Act, act in the living present."
JThat means before it is too late. The
"Discovery" is one of the great suc
cesses of the age a safe pleasant
remedy to take, and can be had of
all druggists. It is guaranteed to
benefit of cure, or money paid for it
will be refunded. ,
NARROW ESCAPE.
Col W. K. Nelson, of Brooklyn,
came home one evening feeling a
peculiar tightness in the chest. Be
fore retiring he tried to draw a long
breath but found it impossible. He
suffered four days from pneumonia
and the doctors gave him up. Dr.
Acker's English Remedy for Con
sumption saved him and he is well
to day. Hands Bras., druggists
The Anniversary '.'effebration.
To morrow being the Thirty third
Anniversary of the Howard Relief
Fire Engine Company No. 1 they
will celebrate it with a grand pa
rade, a feast and a ball at night.
The latter is to take place in their
hall on Fourth street. The line will
be formed at the Engine House at
10 o'clock sharp, in the folio wfhg
.order: Germania Cornet Band:
Honary Members; the Company in
full uniforms; the Mayor and mem
bers of the Board of Aldermen;
Chief of Police; Chief of the Fire
Department, and Assistant Chief;
Chief Engineer of the Atlantic Com
pany; the guests all in carriages.

to Dock, up Dock to Fourth and
thence to the engine house, where

Had His Clothes Stolen.
Mr. F. F. Goddard, an employe of
the Atlantic Coast Line, returned
on his train to the city this morning,
and upon going to his boarding
house and entering his room found
that some one had broken upen his
trunk during his absence and stolen
every article of clothing it contain
cd. Upon investigation a pair of
old trousers were found in a closet
in the room which the thief had
evidently taken off to replace with
a pair belonging to Mr. Goddard.
The trousers were identified as the
property of another boarder, whose
name we did not learn. Another
pair of the stolen trousers were
found in a second-hand clothing
store, where he had exchanged them
for a longer pair, stating that they
were too short for him. At last ac
counts the officers were in hot pur
suit of him, and he may be in "dur
ance vile" ere the ink dries on this
paper.
