Frost our Regular C01 respondent. Legislative busings goes toward by spasmodic jerks in both Senate and House. The Senate now has the post office appropriation bill in hand and the H outwit trying to swing the civil s.-ryice up propria tion bill every night a 'day' march nearer home.' The reading clerk in present ing them item by item, And contesting the flour an far 11 h the speaker will let hi in with members who itiHint upon car rying on an accriumnious partisan debate between wen tences. The hesitating pro gress has continued du.v by day. Senator Gorman spirit edly arraigned the republican party for aimsof commission and omission, especially for refusing to investigate the diffusive post office scandal. fie insisted that under I a x methods corruption had per meated every department of the government that thou sands of office holders had suatcbed boodle merely be cause their party had been too long in power and would probably soon be driven roro all places of authority. Senator Dolliver, Iowa, "the" republican orator, dep recated the 'senseless clam or" which demanded investi gation, and insisted tha. ad equate and ample investiga tion had already been made and reported by the post of fice department itself. There had been enough investiga tion, he said, and Congress ought to go straight on with its work. iov, McReary, of Keutncky. asked Mr. Dolii ver if it was generally consid ered adequate for a prisoner to sit in judgmenton his own offenses. ' Senator Peterson, of Colorado, insisted that there had been no investiga tion whatever in reply to the demand which had been made for one by theCommissioners appointed by the President himself, and declared that au early adjournment had been decided on to avoid legisla Han not desiied by the Pres ident. There was to be no tar iff revision; no public build ing bill; no reciprocity; no in vestigation of various scan dals; no settlement of the Swayne or Smoot cases Sen ator Lodge asken him if the nation had not had prosper ity, and when in the pH8t there had ever been such a high tidpof prosperity as nn der the Dingle? a t. Senator Patterson replied thit the country had had flush times and periods of depression un der both parties and all kinds of legislation, but he would venture to say that under the so called free trad .regi colds Cause pneumonia. One of the most , remarkable cases of cold, deep seated on the lungs, causing pneumonia, is that of Mrs. Gertrude E. Fenner, Marion Ind who wasentirel) cured by the use of One Minute Cough Cure. She says: "The coughing and straining so weakenedjne that I ran down in weieht from 148 to 02 pouuds. I tried a number of remedies to no a Vail until I used One Minute Cough ure. Four bottles of this" wonder ful remedy c ired me entirely of the cough, strengthened my lung and rtsored me o mv normal weight, healt'j and strength." Sold by M. B. Blackburn, me of 1840 there was more general thrift and national prosperity than ther had b-en under the adminiarra tione of McKinley and Rouse vnlt. Senator Lodge udmit ted that the worst feature of the mwhIM post-office, scan dal whs the fact now reveal el that there had Veil "se cret rule" in thfdepartinent for the benefit of Congress men; it wmh Imped that the present bill would abolish them. " In the House there are pre mouiturv spats eerv day. Williams, Democratic leader, said the situation bristled with iHHii" for the campaign. The parly in power would be held responsible not merely for its failure to cultivate re ciprocity relations with oth er nations and its refusal to punish grafters or investi gate manifest and palpable corruption, and for bank rupting the treasury, but es pecially for itsrefusal to pros ecute the coal-carryig-rail road trust and to bring ciim inal action against the worth less securities company and condign punishment on the promoters of that conspira cy.- ,He added that the im peachment of Judge Swayne ought to be carried rigorous ly on or stopped; that it was not dignified or decent to hold a high judicial officer in suspensionhile his ariaiga ets went home to fix their fences. Although there will proba bly be no new public building begun or authorized this year, the House has provid ed in the sundry bill for a magnificent addition to the Capitol an extension of tl.e main body of the main build ing eastward 150 feet so as to bring it out uponjthe pla za flush with the two wings. This addition will contain sixty-six spacious and sump tuous rooms, half of which will belong to the Houseinnd half to the Senate. The en tire extension will cost $2, 500,000, and will be finished in two years. Leading from the east steps to the rotunda will be a beautiful marble ves tibule, 108 teet long, forming a grand entrance to the buil ding. The Senate will probs ably ratify the scheme.

Watkins of Pleasant City, Ohio, 'Pneumonia had played sad hnvoc with him and a terrible rough had set in betides. Doctors treated him, but he grew worse every day. At length we" tried Dr. King's New Dis covery for consumption, and ourdar ling was saved. He's now sound and well."

TheWmierous understf&p- pers who nave risen irom Shank's ordinary mare to a gorgeous equipage during he last two or three years will' 'be deeply embarrassed by the sundry civil bill, if it goes through the Senate un scathed. It provides that all nrringffl owned by the gov ernment shall borealter bear the printed name of the de partment which they serve. This will diminish their use as private chariot to some extent, but, as it stands, the ientifying names need not be any larger than the type in which this letter is print 2d. and they may put it on the inside or on the under side.

This Is fairly matched by the prop osition that the government shall give 70,000,000 acres of irrigated land to the Sal- vation.Army and lend it mill ions of money. HAPPY. HEALTHY CHILDREN.

President Roosevelt is on the defensive, lie finds bis inversion into tbe field of pen sion legislation unpopular and he has set his friends to explaining it. They defended it on two grouuds first that it is merely nn extension of rulings previously made by Commissioner Lochren un der Cleveland and Commis sioner Evuns under MKin- e,; and second that it whs he only way to head off the passage by Congress of a still mote lavish service-pen sion law. The Lochren and J-Evans rulings were based upon the aw which mukes inability to earn a living by manual la- or the test of right to h pen sion Mr. Lochren ruled that a man snventy-flve yearsoM onld not support hiinsell by manual labor, and it. is a matter of common knowledge that in the great majority of cases he cannot, tommis slouer Evans throwing sop to the pension attorneys who wereafter his scalp and final y got it, ruled that "a claim ent who has attained, theage Of sixtyflve shall be deemed entitled to at least the mini mum rate of pension unless the evidence disclose an un usual vigor and ability for the performance of manual abor in one of that age. That was stretching things too far, hut it stilKkept on speaking terms with thelaw But when President Roose velt reduced the limit to six tyl wo, taking in every sol dier 'who was tweuty-threp years old when the war end ed, he cut loose entirely from the idea of disability and en acted a service pension law pure ' and simple precisely such a : statute as Congress had enacted to the veterans of the Mexican war and had refused to enact for the survi vors of the civil war. As to the 'excuse that the edict hus headed off a worse bill in Congress, it is exactly theapology offred- for the ShermaiSilver-purchase act in 1890 to sidetrack free coinage.
