HILL WAS SWORN IN A JIONIMKNT FUR NORTH CAROLINA PERHAPli, Vance Introduce a RchoIuIIoii of IiitereHt to Thin ttlale-All the (state) Represented In the Hen ale Today by Two (senators Kx cent Nevada. Washington, Jan. 7. When the senate met today every state was represented by its two senators except Nevada, from which ones has not yet been sworn in for his new term, and the slate of New York, whose senator-elect, Hill, has not presented his credentials. Alter prayer by the cliuolaiu Mr. Hill entered the chamber and i.'.is 40011 sur rounded by senators Irom both sides welcoming him to his new scene oi public duty. As soon as the journal was reau mr. iliscock announced that David B. Hill, ol tile state ol New York, was present and prepared to take the oath ol office. The vice-president invited Ah. mil to come forward and lake the oath, which he did under the escort oi'Hiseock. When he went back to his seat greetings and congratulations were renewed. Among the bills introduced and ,-eferred today was one by Vance lor a monu ment to Gen. Greene ol the Revolutionary army on the battle field ol Guillord, N. C. In the house today, alter the approval ol the journal and the appropriate refer ence ol the various executive communi cations, on motion ol' Springer, (111.) it was ordered that wheu the house ad journed that, it be to Monday next. Mr. Richardson, (Tenn.)chairman of the committee on piiuting, ottered a concur rent resolution authorizing that the committee examine into the errors in the index of the record of the present session and to take steps to rented v the delects. He thought that the resolutions presented a question of privilege as it aflcctcd the integrity of the record of the proceedings. He called for the reading of rule 'J relating to questions of piiv dege. lioutelle of Maine, Henderson of town, anil Htichauan of New Jersey, in quired as to what congress that rule be longed. The speaker pro tem replied that it was rule U of the 50th congress, r he rule having been read, Richardson explained that whoevei compiled the in dex hud failed to mention the names of 7 ineml)ers from Tennessee and the names ol a number of others. The resolution was agreed to. iUV. Kl HSi: I.I. INAKil'HATKD, HIH McMnaire Touches) on a Nuin berof Important Points). liosTo.N, an. 7.-Wm. E. Russell was today inaguratcd governor of Massa chusetts, and his address read to the two branches of the legislature. Governor Russell devotes the larger portion of his message to an argument against the divided responsibility, or no responsibility, in the system r f executive management established by the common wealth. He earnestly recommends the favorable consideration of each legis lation as will give power to remove administrative officers for cause stated to the governor, leaving to the council the power ol confirmation of his ap pointments. He then reviews the executive boards and officers, muking suggestions and recommendations as to each one. He recommends the passage of a comprehen sive and stringeut law to secure the pub lication of election expcnse.and savs it is possible to limit their amount and' define their projwr object. He urges an amend ment to the ballot law so that a single mark may constitute a vote for all the presidential electors of each political party. At present, to give full effect to the vote lor president, the voter must mark separately the names of fifteen elec tors. The danger is thut with the pres ent extent of partial voting, manv voters through carelessness or mistake, will not mark the full list of the electors, in a close election this would certainly lead to an unintentional division of the elec toral vote of the slate. Gov. Russell asks further legislation in the interests of labor, and requests thut the national legislators be petitioned for providing for the adoption of safety ap pliances in coupling and uncoupling curs, The $75,000 appropriated for the World s Columbian exposition is consid ered inadequate, und the governor recom mends that the amount Ik- increased.

WHISKEY MVRUF.R. Dr. Thomas Thatcher (iraves Convicted. Here is a true likeness of Dr. Thomas Thatcher Graves, convicted at Denver, Col., of the murder of Mrs. Barnaby. Graves was born in Connecticut, in Jan uary, 1S4-1. He began to practice med icine at Providence. R. I., in 1887. In 1889 he became medical advisor to Mrs. J. B. Brnaby, wife of one of the richest men of this city. By degrees he attained great influence over the unfortunate woman. Afterthedeathof Mr. Barnaby, the same year, who left his widow with inadequate provision, Graves persuaded ner to employ a lawyer named liallou, who was his intimate friend, to contest the will, which was broken. In Decem ber, 1889, Mrs. Barnaby made a will. leaving a large fortune to Graves. Only Graves, Bullou and the lady knew of this arrangement, which Mrs. Barnaby. it is said, subsequently determined to change. The executors of the Barnaby estate paid $80,000 to Graves, as agent ot Mrs. barnaby, in March, 1891. At the end of the same month a package was mailed, by some person, at Boston, addressed to Mrs. Barnaby, Denver. It contained a bottle of whiskey, of which the lady drank on April 13. She died a few days afterwards. Graves has been convicted of poisoning her, by sending her the drugged whisky which she un happily drank. THEY LYNCHED WOMEN! ANOTHER TRAGEDY IN THE SIMS CASE.

Reyes, commander of the Mexican troops now operating on the border against the Garzia revolutionists, states that a con siderable engagement took place yester day evening between the United States troops and a band of Garzia' troop at La Joha crossing on the Rio Grande.

San Antonio, Jan. 7. Oneof the clerks at government headquarters said last night: "The capture of Garzia is reearded as oniy a question 01 a lew hours. He has been located positively at a ranch 18 miles from San Diego, and force sufficient to insure his capture is now after him. 1 expect to hear soon that he has been either captured or slain, probably the tatter, as ne nas Doasted that he would never be taken alive. I believe with his death or capture the revolution, if it con lie so called, will come to a sudden termi nation." ANNUAL, ELECTION. Officers of the Street Railway and Litem and Power Companies.

Voltaire said to a beautiful young lady with whom he was dining: "Your rivals are the perfection of art; yon are the per fection ol nature."

Women who want to keep beautiful, and be the "perfection of ........ , u .-.. u .... a.utiiv A ItSVllJJ- tion" to assist nature when needed, to correct irregularities, aid circulation and digestion, and thereby clear up the skin, rendering it soft and beautiful.
