The : case in Massillon, O. , 1 in which a colored barber is the defend ant and is Arraigned for refusing to cut the hair of a colored customer, presents I some curious aspects.

Mr. Eustis desired the resolution re ferred to the committee on finance and expressed the hope that the committee would report on it at an early day in order that it may be determined whether or not this practice of paying United States bonds and interest on them ex clusively in gold coin ws approved or JiBapproved by Congress. The resolu tion was so referred. Mr. Voorhees' resolution of inquiry relating to pensions to officers was with his consent allowed to go over till Mon day next, with the view that a resolu tion of like import may be drafted that will e acceptable to both Messrs. Voor hees and Harrison, for whose resolution that of Voorhees was offered as a sub stitute. ' The Senate proceeded to the consideration of bills on the calendar. The Utah bill was again taken up. -Mr. Edmunds created some merriment by rising to speak on one of the amend ments offered yesterday. Looking about him and finding comparatively few republicans in their seats, he said : "As hardly any of the friends of human lib erty are in the Senate, I will address myself to the 'reform' men." After some r debate Brown's amendment, of fered yesterday, which was to strikeout the words that would compel the lawfnl husb and or wife of a person accused to testify, was rejected, yeas' 11, nays 42, and tie compulsory provision was there fore cent aiu ed in the bill. Mr. Morgan again called attention to the twelfth section, whieh provides for fourteen trustees to administer the property, bus iness affairs and operations of the body known as "the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints." He . wanted to know what their duties were to be aud why the bill was silent as to their salaries. He demand ed an answer from his fellow-members of the judiciary committee. Mr. Ed munds replied that Mr. Morgan should have an answer. Mr. Morgan saw no authority in Congress to appoint trustees to manage church business. He char acterized such trustees as ' Mugwump Mormons." They would be occupied, neccesarily, be said, in promoting Mer monism, as he interpreted the bill under the consideration, for they were to ex ercise all the power granted to tentorial laws Creating a corporation. Mr. Ed munds replied that that they had nothing whatever to do with church matters or matters of faith, buy only with property, to see that the church moneys, which were enormous, were not applied to the progression of of polygamy. Not one-fourth of the Mormons, as Mr. Edmunds understood, believed in polygamy. Mr. Teller in quired if the Mormon church moneys were now applied illegally; that is, in violation of the charter of that church. Mr. Edmunds replied that he believed they were. Mr. Teller asked how. Mr. Edmunds answered, "Tney are used for the Purpose of inducing and securing immigration that may contribute to the lusts of those vagabonds." Some amendments offered by Mr. Call were voted ; down. As the bill was about to be brought to a vote, Mr. ' Morgan said that its friends seemed determined to press it without giving its opponents a chance to study it. He again inquired as to the salaries which the commissioners were to have. He did not want to send men out to Utah to "loot" the Mormon church. lie -announced his determination to wipe this church out and leave nothing of it but its name and an unholy memory, but had be,u met by a proposition in this bill to perpetuate the church. While the bill wa ou its final' passage, Mr. Van Wyck endeavored to j fix the duties of the proposed fourteen j trustees upon the members of the : present commission, but was ruled out of ! order. He asked Mr. Edmunds whether he had objection to such an amendment, to which that Senator answered that he had. The bill having I been brought to a'vote was passed, yeas 38, nays 7.

The blizzard raging throughout Iowa, Kansas, Ne braska, Dakota and Minnesota is de clared to be of wider extent and fiercer in character than has boon known before in years. Trains are behind time. Many traini have been snowed iu and 'aban doned. Very little can be learned con cerning abandoned trains or the further effects of the storm, owing to the blow ing down of telegraph poles and wires and the stoppage of telegraphic commu ppa The nication. The temperature throughout Dakota is stated to be 20 to 4 degrees below zero, with a wild blizzard blow ing. A telegram from Fargo, Dakota, says the thermometer registered 27 be low at noon today. Yesterday is de scribed as the roughest day in the ex perience of the city. Bismarck reports a bigh wind with the thermometer 35 below zero. A high wind is prevailing at Sioux City and the temperature is very far below. Omaha registers 20 be low. Telegraphic communication with Omaha has been cut off nearly all day. California telegrams are being sent via St. Paul and Northern Pacific, with only one wire working. A telegram from Des Moines, Iowa, says the cold wave continues there, with a high wind and drifting snow. All through trains west ot there are blocked and the branch roads are snowed up. Chicago & Bur lington trains are stuck fast in a drift about fifteen miles south of Des Moines. The Wabash road south from that city is badly drifted. The Fort Dodge narrow-gauge has been abandoned. A snow storm prevailed throughout Illi nois all day, but the cold weather has not been severe so far. It is, however, growing colder tonight.

A state ment was made by the former that Mr. S. W Henley, the editor of the latter. was sailing under false colors; in other words, that his real name was not lien ley, and that he was in hiding, hx this week s issue of the limes affidavits, i&c, are published, to the effect that Henley's name is really Pperry W. Hearn, and that he came from Tappa- hannock, Va. In this week's issue of the Intelligencer, published the same day as the Times, edi tor Henley in an article three columns in length relates his Whole history, and acknowledges that Sperry W. Hearn is his proper name, lhe story he tells is a strange oue. In substance it is that fifteen years ago Henley (or Hearn as he must now be called) was a 'printer at lappabannock, in the employment of J. G. Cannon, editor of the, Essex Gazette. There he fell in love with a pretty school girl and from this simple and quite otl dinary beginning all his future troubles dated, he claims. In 1874 a dark cloud came between the girl and himself and he attempted to commit suicide. He had a rival, an ex-Union officer, and sought to force him into a duel or even a street fight. For two months he kept the town in a state of-turmou. I his aroused the indignation of the people and all his friends save tone deserted him. Finally their anger abated, but he kept them at a distance. ' He became disgusted at what he terms his own tolly and decided te leave the place forever . In October, 1874, he left Tappahannock for Baltimore, and there assumed the name S. W. Henley, which until now he has borne. Since that time the people of Tappahannock hove not known aught of his whereabouts. For years theyhought him dead. Recently he was compelled to prove his title to some property there to secure it. He says that there wasuni versal reioicin? when the TaoDahannock people discovered that he. yet lived, and they have since been seeking to ascer tain hiswhereabouts. In conclusion ho says; "I have now had my say. I have endeavored to tell the whole and entire truth, and I have little fear that the people of Anson county will think less of me now that they know the se cret of my life, than they did when they knew me simply as S. VV. Henley, but knew nothing of my antecedents. Hay ing said this much, I am done. Forever abjuring the name of S. W. Henley, thus laying a-id9 the. mask Under which for nearly twelve years I have' hid my boyish folly, I subscribe myself, as I desire in future to be called, Speret Hbarn. The Djom of Maniaa Hair. ' . From the N. Y. World. A startling prediction comes from the Nineteenth Century club. . Dr. William A. Hammond advances the opinion that in about one thousand years, which will carry us to the year of pur Lord 28856, all mankind will be bald. Un less the generation living in that age should choose to counterfeit their an cestors or the nresent dav bv wearing wigs, only smoothly polished heads des titute of capillary covering will be - . s .: . . visible from the family circles of theaters or the galleries of churches.; i Dr. Hammond does not undertake to predict to what men and woman of that distant era will resort to supply this deficiency of hair, or whether they will resrard it as a deficiency at all. He onlv makes a possition based on his observa tion of the steady increase : of baldnes. without .even expressing: an opinion whether the decline of hair, will be blemish or an ornamentation. Perhaps the esteemed doctor is inclined to regard it as the latter, since his own head emulates the days of 2885, except as to a light filamentous fringej which borders the base of the skull. It is difficult to conjecture to what his universal baldness may lead. If be present lasnions should prevail ' in tk'ose days, it is not improbable that ladies may employ distinguished artists to paint Mikado figures, birds of bright plumage or indescribable animals on their heads and enterprising men of fcu?i- .ness may use the smooth space for adver- . tismg purposes If ladies decide upon wearing wigs the business of the hair dresser and the lady's maid will be con siderably lightened. ; If Dr. Hammond is correct in his pre diction it is certain that the termagant wife of 2885 will not be able to take as firm a hold upon her husband as the wife of the present time, lit may also be questioned whether the politicians of that date will be any more barefaced than those of 1885, even if they should be more bareheaded.

While walking on the street l?o drew a clasp knife and, plunging the blade into the side of his neck, tried to behead himself. He did not succeed. He again thrust the blade into the other side of his neck and drew it around under his chin, severinghis windpipe, but strange to say, missing the carotid artery. He again plunged the knife into his neck and followed it up by stabbing himself in the left side and arm.
