A'ter five months and four days of unci a tin grind Congress today was able to f how but two big legislative measures made into law the Canaiian recipro city agree nent and the bill for publicity of campaign contributions be fore elections. The Reipport'onment bill fixing the membership of the next House of Rep-1 sontatives 433 was another finished product turned out during 'he 5 months. But the Democratic leaders are ei thusiasiic over the present campaign material that they have fashioned from the happenings at the extra b( saion. For a magnificent seheme of tariff re vision, which, the Democrats declared would "cut down the tariff tax on the American people," has crumbled to' dust under the power of the president's veto. This places the burden of tariff ills on the president and his party. ' Reciprocity with Canada was the on ly reason given by the president for convening the extra session on the 15th of March. Two Democratic tariff bills, one revi sing the "iniquitous wool schedule," and another placing meat and bread on the free list, have been lost in the shuffle. A third, revising the cotton tariffs, will also die a-borning. Two of them the Wool bill and the Free List bill the President has vetoed.

And He Pinched the Boxes as Well as the Pungent Oust. Napoleon loved snuff; not only on the battlefield, but at home in the coun cil, he had recourse to the dust, es pecially when his schemes were un favorably received and he wished to hide his uneasiness or impatience. Un able to sit still in his elbow; chair, he would try in a thousand ways to divert attention from himself, and among other devices, as soon as he saw a member's eye fixed on him would bold out his arm and shake his thumb and forefinger, to signify that he wish ed for a pinch of snuff. Not less than four, and even six, snuffboxes dis appeared in this manner during a sin gle sitting, and it was not till he had left the council chamber that he be came aware of the larceny. So con firmed was this habit that some of the councilors, whose snuffboxes were heirlooms or presents from foreign princes, hit upon the expedient of car rying cheap papier mache or wooden boxes for the emperor to pocket The snuffboxes, however, always return ed to their owners and in doing so were often found to have undergone a very pleasant metamorphosis. By some necromancy a wooden or tor toise shell box, on coming out from the Imperial pocket, was usually trans formed Into one of gold, set around with diamonds, or bearing the emper or's miniature on the lid.

Washington, Aug. 21st. President Taft has issued orders that the bones of all enlisted men recovered from the battleship Maine dhould be brought from Havana to the United States on a battleship. The President read a dis patch this morning from Havana sta ting that the bones of . enliiled men lately recovered from the Maine would be carried to the United States on a collier. He remembered that the re rm ins of L'eutenant Merritt, 'an engi neer officer of the Maine, were brought to this country on the armored cruiser North Carolina. The Piesident takes the position that the enlisted men who went down with the Maine are entitled to all the honor that the United States can give them Although he did not know whether the Navy Department officially had direc ted a collier to be used for bringing back the bones of the sailors, he took prompt steps to prevent the isuanceof such an order and madu it eertain that a battleship should be used.
