Cfohp is a terror to young mothers and to post them concerning"the cause, first symptoms and treatment is the object of this item. The origin ot croup is a common cold. Children who are subject to it take, cold very easily and croup is almost sure to follow. The first symptom is hoarseness; this is soon followed by a peculiar rough cough, which is easily recognized and will never be tpr-gotton by one who has heard it. The time to act is when the phild first becomes hoarse If Chamberlain’s Cough Remedv is freely given all tendency to croup will soon disap J ear.

GRIND SOON TO BEGIN 1 Prospective Work of Congress Which I Reconvenes Tomorrow. CAMERON’S CUBAN RESOLUTION. ! Loud Bill Relating tp Second Class Mall Matter and the Pacific Railroad Refunding Bill. Coine Up For Consideration a* First Buslne** In the House. Homestead Bill In the Senate. Washington, Jan. 4—Beyond the fact that the bill providing for free. i homesteads on former Indian reservations on the calendar is the unfinished business, the Senate has no programme for this week. The friends of the Pacific railroad refunding bill will make an effort to get that measure up for consideration unless they conclude that in doing so they may impair its chances of passage. Until the past day or two it appeared certain' that the (Cuban resolutions would be sprung immediately after the beginning of business on tomorrow. It is now possible, even probable, that both questions will go over at least for a few days. If the movement to have the committee on foreign relations again consider the question as to when it shall be taken up prevails the question cannot be raised until Wednesday and the advocates of delay are becoming sanguine that if they can prevent consideration until Wednesday they will secure a still further postponement. Senator Gear, chairman of the Pacific railroads committee, is doubtful of the advisibility of pressing for consideration his funding bill until after the action of the house on the measure and may wait upon that body. If he does not delay on this account he will make an effort to get the bill up tomorrow or immediately after the homestead bill shall be disposed of. IN THE HOUSE. Loud Postal Bill and Pacific Roads .Fund- i ins: Act Will be Considered. Washington, Jan. 4.—The house will get down to serious business as soon as it reassembles tomorrow. Probably the two most important pieces of general legislation to be acted upon at this session will consume the entire week. They are the Loud bill to amend the ' laws relating to second class mail mat-I ter so as to prevent the shipment of books and serial publications in connection with newspapers at the 1 cent j per pound rate and to cut off the newspaper sample copy privilege, and the bill prepared by Hie Pacific railroad committee, to fund the debts of the Pacific railroads and extend their payment for 50 years at 2 per cent. The Loud bill has already been debated one' day and, under the order adopted, the bebate .will continue tomorrow and Wednesday when the bill will be brought to a vote. The Pacific railroad bill will be taken up on Thursday and the general debate . will continue until Friday evening. On ' Saturday the bill will be open to amend- i ment and on Monday the vote will be taken. The fate of the measure will de- ! termine whether the government will j foreclose its mortgages on the Union and Central Pacific. Both these roads have ' defaulted and President Cleveland Served notice iu so many words iu his ! message to congress that, unless some ; congressional action was taken iinme- | diately, steps would be taken under the > authority of the present law to protect j the government’s interest by foreclosure ! proceedings. The friends of the. roads I realize fully that this is the last chance they will have to accomplish the funding of the debt for which they have striven for 10 years, and they will use I all their influence in its behalf. But; the bill has also many bitter enemies, ■ especially in the west and on the Pacific ; * coast, NATIONAL BANK NOTES. Monthly Statement of the Controller of the Treasury.

hi „ — LAST FOR CLEVELAND ‘ New Year’s Reception at the White House Yesterday. SEVEN THOUSAND ATTENDED.' "De Greatest Inception Renze De Wah.” ; Mont Brilliant of the Cleveland** Effort* Daring Their Eight Year* In the White Hoii*e — Mr*. Clevelands* Cheerfulness During the Trying Ordeal. Washington, Jan, 2.—Seven thousand persons shivered outside the white house yesterday for periods varying from one to six hours. But patience had its reward in every case, for the President and Mrs. Cleveland shook, hands with every one of them. The closing new year’s reception of the present administration was the - most brilliant of Mr. Cleveland’s whole ; eight years in office and old Arthur Simmons, the president’s famous colored messenger, whose service in the white house dates back 30 years, shook ’ his head sadly as he, viewed the farreaching crowd from an upper window and declared it “De greatest inception sense de wah.” The cold gray sky that threatened I rain which did not fall served as a foil j to the brilliant pageant that moved for i hours through the forest of tropic plants | that filled the softly lighted parlors inside the executive mansion. The matic corps as usual furnished the high lights in the picture. Foreign uniforms and decorations of every sort from the white and silver of the German military attaches to the green and crimson silks of the Chinese ministers almost served to pale the Paris gowns of the receiving party and of the official guests behind the line. Only a shade more subdued were the uniforms of the army and navy, a study in blue and gold accentuated by the yellow plumes of the cavalry and the scarlet facings of the artillery. As a background for this display was set the dead black of the evening dress of the South American diplomats, worn in accordance with their own social law in such matters, and the sober morning costumes of the civil officials. The centre of the picture was Mrs. i Cleveland, the most simply gowned of the receiving party. Her dress of pale mauve had a high touching of smoke gray lace at the throat and at the wrists. ' It was caught with butterfly bows of I same on shoulders and on the plain, smooth hanging skirt. Her hair -was coiled high at the back and brought in full waves from her forehead over her temples. She was just slightly flushed by the rapid exercise of handshaking, but smiled as cheerfully and shook hands as vigorously with the last of her callers as she had with the first. As They Arrived. The first to arrive were the members of the Diplomatic corps headed by Sir .Julian Pauncefote, the English ambassI ador, and Lady Pauncefote. All wore I full court costumes. The red fez of the . Turkish minister and the striking robes 1 of the Chinese minister and represental tives of other oriental countries, added Ito the effectiveness of the scene. The Korean minister and his suite, wearing i their small,black, boxlike hats, attracted much attention. | Then followed Chief Justice Fuller , and members of the supreme court and ' others of the federal judiciary, accorn- ! panied by their ladies, senators, repn - sentativeg, the commissioners of the District of Columbia, the judicial officers of the district, ex-members of the i cabinet and ex-ministers. All oil-leers of the army and navy and I the marine corps stationed in» the city ' and at the different posts in close proxi unity to the capital came next. They were followed by the Smithsonian Institute regents, the civil service and interstate railroad commissioners and the first assistants to the cabinet chiefs. i Next came the veterans of the war of I 1846, the G. A. R., Loyal Legion, Union! I Veteran Legion ami the members of the Oldest Inhabitants' association and then ; the general public. The earlier arrivals j by this time had taken their departurej sion hud gone with them. | -T- \ • FIGHT OF HIS LIFE. j‘ " 1 Congressman Hubbard Will Make It Against the Pacific Road Funding Bill. j Washington, Jan. 2. —The Pacific' railroad funding bill will be: before i congress next week, and an exciting j fight is looked for. Congressman Hub- ■ bard of Missouri, who is on the Pacific I railroads committee, and whois opposed! to the funding proposition, will find most of the burden of the opposition, as far as the committee is? concerned, rest- i ing on him. He says he expects to j make the effort of his life against .the bill. The bill, in his opinion, is an iniquitous proposition, and he expresses confidence that when it is presented to . the house in its proper light ,it will be voted down. Mr. Hubbard’s confidence is not shared by other members of congress who have been talkcilto_oiLthe suliject. The prevalent impression is that it wilt pass. The opposition to it, however, is determined, and many members who are now willing to vote for the bill may find themselves unable to do so when full light is thrown oTi the subject. Wants the Desertion Charge .Wipe*! Ont. Washington, Jan. 2.—Senator Peffer has been requested to have removed the charge pLitesiTtion from the record of Presidential-elector Linton of Cherryvale, Kan. He said yesterday that it could be accomplished only by a special act of congress, but the charge could not affect Mft Linton’s status as an elector, as he never had been tried by either a epurt martial or in the civil courts. An investigation of the records, he said, shows that Mr. Linton left, the army near the close of the war after serving through several campaigns.
