J Congress gave an exhibition of rapid transit legislation, as well as ot tbi touch of nature which makes the wholi world kin, when it broke all previous records, in making an a ppropriation ol 200,000 for the relief of the ourfereit from the floods In the Mississippi rivei ind its tributaries and in the Red rivei f the North. Inside of two hours Prvsi lent McKiuley's special message, setting forth the urgent need of help for tlx lood sufferers, was read in botii House lad Senate, the resolution unanimously idopted, signed by the President, ant. die money made available for immediatt use. For the first time, excepting Sundays, f course, since the fourth of March lb. White House is free from a crowd ol )!fice seekers. It isn't free because th jfhee-seekers have gone away, but be cause the President has gone down tin Potomac river on the V. 8. S. Dolphii or two or three days rest. Seeing f thousand or more persons every day it alculated to worry tjie strongest inai nto a nervous wreck, and that is abou what Mr. McKinley has been doing rlgh along. ' Speaker Heed surprised Hie House an he public by making a speech purport ng to explain why he had not appointeo he House committees. He said in effec hat the time had been too short for bin o become well enough acquainted witl he 150 new members to give them prop- :r committee assignments, and that In v.is following a precedent made by thi ate James G Blaine at a similar extr. lessinn of Congress. He also said that h would welcome auy action by the House. f any time he was not properly carryinj mt Us wishes. This throwinz down thi jauntlet to his critics sure enough, but ifter all It was merely stating facts ai hey are. It is the majority of the Hous hat has conferred the great ruthorit; wielded by the Speaker, and it Is always in the power ot the majority to recal that authority. The Senate lost no time in confirming he nomination of Hon. Benjamin But erworth to be Commissioner of Patents tad that was not strange, as it is proba jle that with the exception of several o: he new ones every Senator Is his pei tonal friend. Few miyi are better knowi n Washington and none are better likeii ihan Mr. Buttcrworth. During his loin jcrvice in the House he made no enemiei illhuigh he never lost an opportunity to stand up for bis convictions, political ind otherwise. The unprejudiced .Individual 'can ex ract considerable amusement from the talk of the Democrats .and Republicans About the news from the municipal elec- ions held this week in Ohio and else- whero. The Republicans pooh, noon, he whole matter as merely local and o. not the slightest value as a oointer ii. national politics, while the Democrat) insist that the returns indicate ,a great chinge in public sentiment since th ('residential election and the certain rt- curn of their party to power as fast at lections are held. , - There are men, usually well Informed, ho say that the Cuban debate In thi Jenate on the resolution requesting the President to prevent the killing of Gen. ttvlera, now .a prisoner in the hands ol he Spanish, which was adopted, and on the joint resolution for the recognition ot Juban belligerency, which li pending, was not started so much to help Cuba at it was to try to "get even" Bpeaker Reed for having adopted the do-nothing pro gramme for the House which promises to make delay on the tariff bill by thi lenate so glaringly conspicuous. The) think It would be paying Mr. Reed bacl in his own coin to have the Cuban syoi- pithiiorsot the country hold him re sponsible for the failure of leglslatution in behalf of Cuba, and they know that the belligerency resolution cannot be put through the House by unanimous con. neat, and that there is no other way foi it to get through In the absence of a com' .nlttee to report it. The Riviera resolu tion ,1s regained as merely buncombe, because it 1 .understood that before' it was offered the Spanish minister bad told .Secretary Bherman that Riviera would not be executed. Every newspaper man in Washington is glad that Mr. Theodore Roosevelt, called among the boys "our Teddy" is o imlng back, lie is to be Assistant Sec- rjtary of the Navy, but no matter what he is or where he Is be is always a good "copy-maker," and consequently he is liked by the newspaper writers. Becre- ttry Long, who Insisted upon having Mr, Hoonevelt for his assistant, may not bs so glad of his success In getting him a few months from this time as he Is now, if those who know the two men well are not mistaken in saying that Mr. Rooaevelt is much the ablar. However, it la no new thing for men to have their superiors la brains and ability for subor dinates, and will not necessarily make trouble, THE STATE CAPITAL. rbe A.jlnm Mutter to be Settled Te any.

( It has been decided that the Asylum matters be settled here tomorrow before fudge Adams. The Western, Eastern and Central Asylums will all be repre sented. There is very great opposition to the retirement of Dr. Kirby at the Central Asylum in this city. The Finance committee of the peniten tiary board of directors were in session yesterday to see the books, the first nonth of the new Superintendent. Ot the 19th they will go over the books ol institution for the whole of the time o! hiperintendent Lcazar's term, the last 1 years and ascertain just how far the in- ititution has been self sustaining during tbe time, I saw at the depot yesterday afternoor the three pardoned convicts from the penitentiary on their way home. One was an old gray haired fine looking man, tnd one a full faced strong looking yount fellow and the other was a more ordinary looking man, but each had a quite satis led look, as they sat there waiting foi the delayed train. Col. Benehan Cameron has resigned '.lie Presidency of the North Carolim. I'.ate Agricultural Fair, and Mr, R. H. Battle of this city has been elected hit iuccessor. It is said that it ia a mistake about Governor Russell having an invitation t .jress tiic button to start tbe machinery it the Tennessee Centennial. No sutl invitation has been tendered and he wib irobably not attend. There are 80 life-term convicts in the enltentiary and some of these are quiti eeble. The annex for the Criminal In ane there will be built to accommodate 75.

In Mississippi nine counties are wholly mder water. The population of theft jountles, according to the census of 1810 was 73,000.

Property Valued at Between 81,000, OOO and 81.000,000 ffm Destroy vii . Several Persons Killed. Knoxville, Tenn. The heart of Eno? ville, including some of the larges wholesale and retail business houses ii the South, was destroyed Thursday. Tin property loss is estimated at from on to one and a half million dollars, wi 1 about sixtv per cent of insurance. Tbe loss of life cannot be exactl; stated, the register of the Hotel Knox, ii which fifty persons were sleeDing whei the fire broke out, being burned. Tin proprietor of the hotel says he had fivi or six guests who have not baen seei since the fire occurred. From the hotel building, which wa' Sve stories high, the fire spread East an West. A stiff wind addei to its fin y,aa tbe fire department was inadequate. It became necessary to have t lie wall f ono building blown down by cannoi to check the spread of the tire. A mountain howitzer bdonginar to tlx Enoxville Legion was called into play. and a load of canister did the work, at the same time tearine up some residences in a different part of the city. The city authorities, realising that ti e Are department was unable to conquer the flames, telegraphed to Chattauooi for assistance. An engine was put aboard a flat car on the Southern Rail way and made the run of 111 miles In 115 minutes, witli one stop for water, an average of sixty miles an hour. When the engine arrive.! here the tire was about under control, vet the Chattanooga men did some good work. TO (I KE A t'lll.ll IS USE DAY rako Laxative Promo Quinine TaVets.
