BIG SI MS OF MONEY APPROPRIATED BY THE FIFTYFIFTH CONGRESS. The Aggregate Is $1,566,8140,016. The Spanish War Has Cost the Government $482,562,083 — Congressmen Cannon and Dockcry’s V iews. Washington, March fl. —The official statement of Representative Joseph G. Cannon of Illinois, chairman of the house appropriations committee, summing up the appropriations of the Fiftyfifth congress, shows an aggregate appropriation by the entire congress of $1,566,890,016, and for the session just closed a total of $673,658,400, with authority for contracts subject to future appropriations amounting to $70,000,000. Chairman Cannon’s statement in part follows: “The appropriations made at the session of congress just closed amount approximately to $673,658,400, and show an apparent reduction of $219,573,000 under the appropriations made at the preceding session. “This is attributable to the large expenses occasioned by the war with Spain that were provided for during the preceding session. “The entire appropriations made by the Fifty-fifth congress aggregate sl,566,890,016.28. Os this sum $482,562,083.47 is directly chargeable to our late war with Spain or incident thereto. “Deducting this charge from the whole amount of the appropriations, the remainder, $1,084,327,632.81, represents the ordinary or normal appropriations made by the Fifty-fifth congress. “The appropriations made by the preceding congress, the Fifty-fourth, amounted to $1,044,580,273.87. A comparison shows an increase in ordinary appropriations made by this congress over those made by the Fifty-fourth congress, $39,747,000; but this apparent increase is more than accounted for by increases under eight items alone, namely, for pensions, $4,000,000; for the postal service, $16,000,000; for rivers and harbors, including work under contracts previously autnorized, $3,600,090; for new ships for the navy, $6,000,000; for beginning the work of the 12th census, $1,000,000; for the Paris exposition, sl,200,000; for new public buildings, including the building for the department of justice, and for sight and partial construction of the new government printingoffice, about $'>,000,000; and for payment of judgments rendered against the government on account of French spoliations and under the Bowman act, $3,100,000. Mr. Dockery’s View. Mr. Dockery of Missouri, the ranking Democratic member of the house appropriations committee, made in part the following statement, giving the Democratic view: "This congress easily surpasses all its predecessors in the stupendous aggregate of its appropriations. It was thought that the Fifty-first congress, commonly known as the ‘billion dollar congress,’ had—in point of extravagance ot appropriations—touched a limit which would not be reached, or at least surpassed by any of its successors. “The result is an actual deficiency in current revenues, amounting, on the first of this month, to $99,109,554.50. This deficiency, as shown by a recent conservative estimate by Chairman Cannon of the appropriations committee, will probably reach $159,000,000 on June 30 next. “The appropriations of the original ‘billion dollar congress’ amounted to $1,035,680,109.94. The appropriations of the congress just ended reach the mighty aggregate of $1,566,890,016.28. It is fair to deduct from this total $482,562,083.47, made necessary to meet the liabilities of the Spanish war. So, if we deduct from the grand total the liabiliities on account of the war with Spain, it appears that the appropriations for the ordinary expenses of the government are $1,084,327,932.81. Th? appropriations of the congress just ended, to meet the ordinary governmental expenses, exceed those of the preceding

(Fifty-fourth) congress by $39,747,658.94.” Fi I'tv- Fill 11 Congress. Washington, March 6.—The Fiftyfifth congress adjourned Saturday. It had been in continuous session for almost 24 hours in clearing the calenders of unfinished business. The house adjourned with singing two patriotic songs and closing with the doxology. There was no demonstration in the senate further than handshaking and congratulations over having passed the need of an extra session. The Fifty-fifth congress was remarkable in having held three sessions during its life of two years and in that time having had a foreign war on its hands and seen peace declared. Officers Ordered Examined. Washington, March 7.— Secretary Long has cabled to Admiral Dewey at Manila and to Rear Admiral Sampson at Havana announcing tiie enactment of the naval personnel bill and instructing them to have the officers attached to their respective fleets examined physically in order to make ready for their rearrangement and promotions. Competition hi Telephonic Service. London, March 7.—The welcome announcement was made by the financial secretary of the treasury, R. W. Hanbury, in the house of commons yesterday that the government has decided to introduce competition in the telephonic service of the country. He asked for a credit of $10,000,000 as a starter, in order to enable the postoffice department to develop the telephonic communication of London. Ryan, Jennings and Shephard. Mansfield, Mo., March 7.—Ex-Deputy Marshal Brown and Sheriff Cantrell yesterday started for Hartsville, Mo,, with the alleged trainrobbers Bill Ryan, alias Jennings; Shephard, the Indiana man, and John Kennedy. The prisoners will have to answer to the charge of robbing a Memphis train at Macomb on Jan. 3. Value of a Comma. A Prussian school inspector appeared at the office of the burgomaster of a little town to ask him to accompany him on a tour of inspection through the schools. The burgomaster was ont of sorts, and was heard to mutter to himself: “What is this donkey here again for?” The inspector said nothing, but waited his time, and with the unwilling burgomaster set out on his tour. At the first school he announced his wish to see how well punctuation was taught. “Oh, never mind that,” grumbled the burgomaster. “We don’t care for commas and such trifles. ” But the inspector sent a boy to the blackboard and ordered him to write: “The burgomaster of R. says, the inspector is a donkey. ” Then he ordered him to transpose the comma, placing it after R., and to insert another one after inspector, and the boy wrote:

“The burgomaster of R., says the inspector, is a donkey.” It is probable that the refractory official gained a new idea of the value of “commas and such trifles.” —London Tit-Bits. Men’ll Dfcmr In I.bndon. In London the female make up has no significance whatever. All kinds of men ranking anywhere above “lower class, ’ ’ however. Ijave their frock coSts and tall hats. A tailor made frock coat is not a luxury in London. Take it in the United States, and a man wishes to attire himself in the extreme of what the British call “afternoon wear. ’ ’ must be willing to spend money.

It costs sixpence to have a silk hat ironed. When it comes to the mere making of a personal front on a small income, no other city can offer such advantages as London. —Chicago Record. The “Terrier.” A document known by the name of a “terrier” is supposed to be kept at every old parish chnrch setting forth the sources of the income of the benefice—especially glebe lands; hence the derivation from the Latin “terra. ’ ’ Ignorance of this purely technical term led a clergyman into a curious mistake. He was a sporting parson and had just been appointed to his first living. During the early days of his incumbency he received a form from the bishop which he was required to fill up. Among the questions asked was, “Do you keep a terrier?” n *JJo, ” wrote the cleric in reply, “frat I havetwowell bred pointers, and your lordship is welcome to one if you care to have it.”—St. James Gazette.

FROn AFRICA’S COAST. Miss Studabaker Writes Another Let* ter From Messina, Sicily, and Alexandria, Egyt. A DESCRIPTION OF THE INCIDENTS OF THE TRIP AND THE CUSTOMS OF THE PEOPLE. Mediterranean Sea, between Mes sina, Sicily, and Alexandria, Egypt. Dear Dick: When writing home there has always been so many big things to write that I have not had time to tell the many interesting little customs that come before us. I know you will be interested in such things and I’ll try to write it to you now. when we are not so hurried unless it gets too rough to write at all. Since I was seasick on the Trave, mv eyes have been weak and I have been very careful of them. In our bed room we have usually had candles and they make a dim light. They are very frugal with their light. If we went to dinner and left the light burning, electric or candle, when we returned we always found it extinguished. Usually we had to ask for matches (lucifers) and then got only two or three. At one place little wax matches an inch long, we could hardly light anil were afraid we would burn our fingers, were used. Along the railroad in Sicily, which follows the line of the coast, we saw the rural population. Torrents sweep down the mountains making a wide channel which is kept confined between stone walks. During this season of the year most of the river beds are dry, with a small stream running through it. The dry graveled bed is utilized as a roadway, and the village women gather in parties and do their washing in the running stream of clear mountain water, rubbing them on the stones, and in some places laying them on boulders or branches of shrubs at the side to drv. In Catania we saw a large shed near the market place where about fifty women were at tubs washing. The clothes were taken home and hung on lines from the windows and balconies high above the street, to dry. They looked white and clean. The clothing we sent out from Naples and Messina to be washed came back nice and clean and well ironed. The price is about the same as in America.

We are now on an Italian boat. It i is not large but clean and comfortable, j The cooking is Italian: some of it we like and some of it we don't like. The sea has been very smooth so far. M e are told this is unusual and that it is i often rough like the English Channel, i It was lovely as we left Messina yesterday afternoon about two o’clock. The harbor, then the narrow strait with mountains on both sides Cala- ! brian on the Italian side, or snow' covered range Mt. Etna on Sicilian side with snow covered summit. The city of Messina, opposite the town of Scilla. The current of Charybdis on the one side, the rock of Scilla on the other. As Virgil says, “Beware of Charybdis, and come not near Scilla.' A few miles below Scilla we passeel Rhegium where St. Paul landed when on his I way to Rome as a prisonerfActs 28:13.) | (See also Acts 28:1-12.) It is now the terminus of the railway from Naples ' to southern Italy. There is a ferry across to Messina to connect with the railway there. Gradually we left the Sicilian coast behind, but for three hours we steamed along in plain view of Italy. Great mountains came down to the shore and villages and towns nestled at their feet. Occasionally a monastery and a few houses were built on some point half way up the mountain side. The railway was close to the narrow beach. The air was so fresh and good, the sky so blue and clear with a few white clouds and the sea so smooth, it was a delight to be on deck and enjoy it all. Did I tell you about the goats’ Catania is the only place we had cow’s milk. The goats are taken in droves, are very tame and follow the keeper about. In fact, they seem to know for themselves the house of each patron and stop: the man or woman milks one and pours the milk into the pitcher of the waiting customer. One place we saw them actually follow a woman up stairs to lie milked. We were told they would walk up to your bedroom and kick against the door for you to come out and milk them. I think it is not so much of an exaggeration after all. We have hot milk for our coffee. No cream since we left the | Trave. The water of the Mediterranean is such a deep blue. Not only here but everywhere we comment upon “the deep, blue sea.” Sunday Evening. Hotel Khedivial, I Alexandria, Egypt. Yesterday the I sea was so rough I could not write, ’ and now this is my chance to con- | tinue. When I stopped writing Fri- ■ day afternoon I went on deck and sat down on a bench with Mrs. Allison. Mrs. Sanborn. Mrs. Bander and a German gentleman who spoke very good English and had been in America. We knew that besides ourselves there were but four English speaking persons on board. This German gentleman, an American from Boston whose wife accompanied him. but was ill from sea sickness and whom we did not see till just before we left the steamer this noon. By the way he had been in Indianapolis and spoke about the Bates House very appreciatively. The fourth was a young Englishman. We were told he lived in London and his family was “way up" as it was expressed. But he was just a gentleman, nice and plain. While we were all sitting there. I Mrs. Allison found out Mrs. SanI l>orn had spent a month last I summer in Bay View: and had lieen ;at Oden. They called my attention . and we had a delightful talk about

Bav View. She visited her niece. Mrs G . who is also the niece of our friend Mrs. W , of Aiken. S. v. Mrs. Sanborn is acquainted witliothir cottagers around the Bay. Mr Manderson, the Boston artist. '’Mnted her ( I f iniilr in California and she visiti d at his cottage many times last summer. She too is enthusiastic about Ba' View. As soon as we finished speaking I turned to renew the conversation with the others when the German gentleman exclaimed: “I have been in Bav View too,” So an animated conversation followed and I found he was of German birth but a naturalized American citizen and though no longer in America retained his Amencan citizenship. He was familiar with our part of the country; had lieen in Decatur several times; mentioned that he knew the Adelspergers; was well acquainted in Fort Mayne and mentioned the name of W. P. Breen the lawyer. When I told him my name of course it was familiar. Said he knew those in South Bend quite well. Since then I have found out he was a Catholic priest though he did not look a bit like one. He wore a full beard and always had on an overcoat with a cape to it like we often see here. He was so nice to tell us anything that would make the trip interesting, as he had made the trip many times. He was as pleased as 1 to find the mutual acquaintances and said, “How strange we should meet here on the Mediterraneau.'* Since then I have learned he is a bishop: had been to Rome and was going back to India. Our boat went into the Red Sea as far as Mas- j souah, the Italian colony. From I there he went in another boat. After we came ashore, one of the ladies said j he told her that at one time he had I charge of a large school in Indiana for nine years. I wonder if it was the Brother’s school at South Bend ? I wish I had known sooner and I would have asked him. Then yesterday I made the acquaintance of the Englishman. This morning when talking of Malta, he said he had never been there, but his uncle was governor-gen-eral three or four years ago and the rest of the family went out to visit him though he could not go; and they had never got through talking of the nice time they had. He came ashore with our party and lunched with us, leaving for Cario at 4 p. m. where he I will remain a month. We expect to ! meet him there and Mrs. A and I feel he will prove a very pleasant acquaintance. He will know where to go, what to see, and explain many things not given in the guide books. Then among the Italians on board was a real sweet young lady; a beauty, and her brother a young boy. I Their father is a lawyer for the Eng- j lish at Alexandria. She speaks a lit- I tie English and we got acquainted i with her. A young married couple ; with a baby and several high officials | of the Italian government going to Massouah, among them the chief sec- ; retary to the governor of Massouah. We thought we had got accustomed j to the foreign meals, but on the “In- I dependente” we struck some things ; new. After rising, if one wishes they can have coffee or tea, butter and hard biscuits at a side table in the cabin. At ten o’clock breakfast (dejeuner) was served soup, fish, two i or three jneats, vegetables, fruit. At 1'2:30 lunch two or three courses. At j 5:30 dinner elaborate. And at 9:00 I tea a cup of tea with a slice of lemon and wafers. We were told the 12:30 lunch was unusual and in deference to we Americans and English. It was a good boat and everybody was I very nice to us. Yesterday morning I we passed along within sight of the ; coast of Crete. Saw a range of snow I covered mountains Mt. Ida the high- j est. We talked of Greek mythology and Saint Paul. We had what was considered a wonderfully good voyage. lam told this eastern Mediterranean is much like the English Chan- I nel. very choppy usually. When we arrived here about noon, our boat was soon surrounded by a motely crowd of Arabs, screaming, gesticulating, fighting like wild men to secure passengers to take ashore. But Gaze's boat was there to meet us, and we came ashore safely and to this hotel. It is very good. Today is the last of a Mohammedan fast and the first of a feast. It is carnival and all afternoon we ladies have sat on the balcony in front of Mrs. Allison’s and my room watching the festive crowds below. I can't describe the scene. But we are so glad we happened to be here to see it today. O, yes, I forgot to tell you that Mrs. Sanborn is 80 years old. She keeps up as well as the rest. Is a delightful old lady. We think she is wonderful. Have just come from dinner which was served at 7:30. As I promised, this letter is not very connected. Have so much more to write, but will stop. \\ e stay here till Tuesday, when we go on to Cairo where we hope to get a bushel of letters. Only one, yours of Januarv 15, received since we left New York. Tell Harriet I was very glad to get her letter and will answer it at Cairo. I have thought of her a great many times, and every one of the rest of you. We are both perfectly well. Safe so far and very thankful. Love to all. Hattie Studabaker.

But when an honest man 65 years of age and who has lived in our city for 30 years and owns his own property speaks, we must give ear to his words and have faith in what he recommends. For that reason we publish for the benefit of Decatur people the statement of A. H. West, 211 North St.. Saginaw. Mich, as follows: “My back was very lame, was quite nervous at times, and my general health was seriously impaired. Some time ago I was induced to try Morrow’s Kid-ne-oids of which I had heard a great deal, and I procured the remedy. I had not much faith in it, as I previously had tried a large number of kidney pills and kidney remedies without any particular benefit, but 1 want to say that I got simply wonderful relief within two days after commencing the use of Kid-ne-oids, and that lam now entirely cured. I regard my case as a severe test of the medicine, as so many others have failed to help me. My advice to kidney sufferers is to give Morrow s Kid-ne-oids a thorough trial and find relief as I did. “Mr. West had no faith at first, but the assurance of his friends in duced him to try once again. The result is given above. Let Mr. West be vour friend and it you suffer with backache, sleeplessness, nervousness, etc., take his advice and use Morrow's Kid-ne-oids and get cured. Mr. West is a grateful man and will lie glad to write you how much he was I benefited by the use of Morrow’s Kid-ne-oids. if you will enclose a stamp for reply. Do not confound Morrow’s Kid-ne-oids with any kind of kidney pills; they are not pills at all but yellow tablets which are put up in wooden boxes and sell at 50 cents. Morrow’s Liver Lax are very small red I pellets and cure constipation: they sell 1 at 50 cents a box. Both of these remI edies are for sale bv all first class I druggists and at Holthouse, Callow & Go’s drug store, or will be mailed by the manufacturers on receipt of price.
