The Blair Educational Bill Briefly Discussed by Several Senators.. Speaker Carlisle at Last Announces the List of Honsa Standing Committees, and Adjonrameat Until Mondaj Follows. WASHiscToy, Jan. 5. The President's messages concerning right of way for railroad purposes through Tarions Indian reservations; also, relating to trespasses on Indian lands, and to the timber trespasses, were presented, and referred to the com soittte on Indian affairs. Among; the petitions presented was one by Mr. Piatt, in favor of prohibition of the liquor traffic in the District of Columbia; one by Mr. Blair, in faror of a national prohibitory constitutional amendment; one by Mr. Hoar, against the admission of Utah as a State so long as its local power is in the hands of the Mormon priesthood; also, several in favor of the Blair educational bilL Mr. Dawes, from the committee on Indian affairs, reported bills to provide for the compulsory education of Indian children, and in relation to marriage between white men and Indian women. Placed on the calendar. Among the bills' introduced were the following: By Mr. Hoar: To provide for a world's exposition at the national capital in 1892, and thereafter a permanent exposition of the three Americas, in honor of the four hundredth anniversary of the discovery of America. Referred to the select committee on centennial celebration. - Bv Mr. Dawes: To establish a postal telegraph system.

Blair called for the yeas and nays, suggesting that the Senate might very well devote to-morrow to consideration of the bilL The motion was agreed to yeas 43, nays 10. Mr. Reagan opposed the bill.

Its passage would be the adoption of a policy of centralization which would establish the despotism of s popular majority, overthrow the Constitution, and endanger the liberties of the people.

Mr. George stated that twenty-three Democratic Senators bad voted for this bill on the two occasions when it passed tbe Senate, and . gave their names. The number of Democratic Mr. Plumb suggested the inquiry whether tbe , object in giving the list was tbe apprehension tLat any of the Senators who had voted for tbe bill might get away.

A New Order in tbe Anglican Church. London Standard. At Litchfield Cathedral, Bishop Maclagan yesterday, Dec. 18, ordained fourteen deacons and eight priests. Among the candidates was one described as a '"permanent deacon," and he is believed to bo the first one of his clas? ordained id" the Church of England. He i called a "permanent deacon" because he is not to become a priest The chief duty of this new order is to assist Eries ts in administering the Holy Communion, ut, if licensed by the bishop, those ordained will probably be allowed to preach. The gentleman ordained yesterday was Mr. John Andrews, head master of the'high-school for boys, Shrewsbury, and he was licensed to assist the Rev. E. tie V. Bryans, vicar of the Abbey Church in that town, and one of the bishop's chaplain. . Excellent Advice. New York Tribune Happy thought: Don't throw your calendars for lo87"in the ash can.

JANUARY MAGAZINES. Tf The Forum is particularly happy in its choice of topics of practical, living interest for discussion. Among the notieeabje - contributions to. the January issue " is the argument . by Hon. Henry li Dawes against the admission of UtuA as a State.. "Shall We Call Him Masterl"by, Professor Lesley; ?The Congestion, of Cdties,",by Edward H. Hale, and "What Shall the Public Schools Teachr by Rey. . J. 3 Savage. Mr; Savage's article refers to the question of religion in the schools,-and bis summing up of the matter is that the last remnant or trace of any re-, ligious teaching should be taken out of the public schools for two reasons," either of which ia amply sufficient. " Of these reasons he saysi "I would have the last trace or remnant of

any religious teaching taken out of the public schools, and that for two great reasons, eitner of which is amply sufficient. - In the first place, -as already shown at some length, while conduct in this world is vital to the welfare of the state, it is none of the state's business to establish an insurance bureau for the safety of souls after they have passed beyond ,.the limits of the state's jurisdiction. And, in the next place, so . long as Protestant tradition keeps up what is , hardly more than a farce the semblance of religious teaching . in the- schools, - a weapon ready-made is put into the hands , of the Ro-. manist enemies of our whole public school sys-., tem. The Romanist has a right to complain when his child is compelled either to stay away from school or else be subjected to a kind of socalled religious training in which he does not believe. But if the schools were made purely secular, as in justice they ought to be, he might indeed continue to complain, but he would no longer have a right to do so.; He could no longer arouse , public sympathy as against a manifest injustice. To day, and as against the schools as at present managed, he has a case a strong one; and this it is - that threatens the safety of our system. Mr. Perry Belmont writes of "Defects in Our Consular Service;" Moncure D. Conway tells of "Books that Have Helped Me;" Rev. Arthur T. Pierson offers a strong argument in favor of free churches, and Diekinson S. Miller considers Mr. Gladstone's claims to greatness, his conclusion being that the distinguished Englishman lacks some of the essential qualifications of statesmanship and leadership. Prof. Edward A. Freeman contributes a philosophic article on "The Debt of the Old World to the New." He says: "The old and the new are alike needed. The man of the new world must gain by looking baok to the rock whence he was hewn and to the hole of the pit whence he was digged. And the man of the old world gains no less by seeing what men of his own stock - have done in new-found lands, how tney have won for the common speech, the common law, the common memories, a range which, in physical extent, the old world could never have supplied. We of the old world trust that the day or utter decay for the old lands of Europsj is still far distant; but if it ever should come we shall have what our forefathers in past ages had not, the wider land3 of a new Europe to fall back on." . , -. --- An interesting study of the differences in the language spoken by Americans and English is contributed to Popular Science Monthly by Theo. II. Kellogg under the bead of "English Phonology." After considering the variations from the original sounds in the utterance of certain letters, and the departure from the English standard in the matter of emphasis, . inflections and vocal timbre, the writer concludes as follows: "1. That in keeping with the logic of past events in other languages American English, in a new physical and moral environment, has undergone a radical modification of vocal type. "2. That Americans can not be expected to conform to British customs so far as mere emphasis, inflections, and timbre of voice are concerned. "3. There are cogent reasons for efforts to keep the fundamental sounds of the language alike in the two countries, and it is the duty of all educated oersons to correct such provincial or unauthorized "utterances of the vowel-sounds as have been here described, and to strive to preserve the purity of the mother-tongue. If this article 6b all serve to awaken an interest in this important subject, or to aid any in its study its object will have been fulfilled." In the "Climate of the Lake Regions" Bela Hubbard undertakes to make clear the relations T which exist between the variations of the water levels and the rain-fall and in defining . their periodicities. It is an elaborate exposition of a complex theme and of interest chiefly to those who nave made a study or meteorology, Jn;; "The Outcome of the Granger Movement' Charles W. Pierson describes the rise and decline of that organization. So little is heard of the grangers now that it is something of a surprise to learn how great a number of the lodges are in existence, notably in the New England States. In the absence of any great underlying principle to account for this the writer concludes that the members are drawn together chiefly by social needs, and says: "The most enthusiastic grangers at present are the farmers' wives and daughters, who arattracted by the social opportunities.- In fact, the order seems to be going back to the educational and social basis of the founders, and its boasts are no longer co-operative ventures so', much as grange buildings and libraries, and the grange schools that exist in several States. In ! these directions, and in what it has done to heal , sectional differences between North and South, s the grange can boast its hest achievements. Other contributions to the January issue are 'Governmental. Interference with Production ; and Distribution," by Hon. David A- Wells; ; "Evolution and Religious Thought," i by ' Prof. Joseph Le Conte;- . "Railroads and Railroad : Centers," by Appleton Morgan; "Race and : Language," by Horatio Hale. h-n i ' No more remarkable contributions .have appeared in any recent magazine than . thos e in : the Century by George Kennaa on the wrongs and sufferings of Russian political prisioners. In the January issue he paints an appalling picture of the crowded and unsanitary condition of : the prisons, and of the treatment to which refined and delicate men and wonien are subjected by brutal jailers. The fact that the first paper of : the series was ordered by the Russian literary censor to be stricken out of all copies of the magazine received in that country is its f own commentary on the importance and truth of tho statements made. The January installment of the history of Lincoln treats of the formation of his Cabinet. A matier of especial interest to Indianians is Mr. Lincoln's explanation of his reason for choosing Caleb 3. Smith as one of his advisers instead of Schuyler Colfax. Professor Atwater continues his papers on the chemistry of food and gives attention to the pecuniary economy of food. His remarks on the subject are illustrated with tables and diagrams showing the amounts of actual nutrients in different food materials. Rev. Philip Schaff writes of the catacombs of .Rome. W. J. Stillman contributes an interesting sketch of John Rusitin. A portrait of Ruskin forms the frontispiece. . Other articles are "The Upper Missouri and the Great Falls," a biographical sketch of John Gilbert, the actcr, "An Elk Hunt on the Plains," and the "Meistersehaft in Three Acts," a production by Mark Twain, evidently intended as a comedy. A dialect poem, "The Old Man and Jim," by Mr. James Whitcomb Riley, is a feature of the number. Among the "Open Letters" is a brief but comprehensive argument by Mr. John E. Cleland, of Indianapolis, in favor of an international copyright law. . No magazine is now complete without an' article on international copyright. An amusing chapter on the subject is the correspondence in the new Princeton Review for January, between Mark Twain and Brander Matthews, under the the head of "American Authors and British Pirates." Twain attempts to show that the American author suffers no wrongs at the hands of British publishers if he will but take proper measures to protect himself, while Matthews argues with equal force that it is impossible for the American to take such measures. "Our American Life," by Dr. John Hall, is a study of social and religious conditions and the relation of the church to the developement of the Nation. "The Tariff in Japan by E. H. House, is in the same line with the article which lately appeared in the Atlantic. , Monthly, on, .the wrongs suffered ' by Japan under the treaty regulations. Mr. House is an earnest champion of an oppressed nation and is laboring energetically to undo the injustice for which one o his countrymen is responsible. Other contributions are "Race Theories and European Politics." by John Rhys; "The Dreams of the Blind," by Joseph Jastrow. and the "Dangers of Surplus Revenue," by Henry C. Adams, An historical sketch, which reads like a romance, is Frances Courtney Baylor's "Hildalgo, the Washington of Mexico." In lighter vein is a pathetic sketch of negro life by Ruth McEnery Stuart, entitled "Uncle Mingo's Speculations." No more effective or artistic study of the old-time slave has been given to the public amid all that has been written concerning this fast-vanishing class. The Magazine of Art opens with a graphic description of the forest of Fontainebleau in winter, by Maurice Talmyer, who writes as one who is familiar with and loves his subject. The illustrations are from drawings by A. Lepere. Claude Phillip writes of the progress of English art as shown at the Manchester exhibition.

Richard Heath continues his interesting

"Studies in English Costume. Artist life is pretty much the same everywhere, but there are wide aifferences in the various scnooi systems. and the account given by M. H. Spielman, of the rtoyai i Acaaemy senoois, wm interest art students elsewhere. Other 'papers are "The Romance of Art" and the "Wolverhampton Art GaUfcry." The frontispiece is an engraving of Eugene Delaplanche's statue of "Music," .whieh took a grand prize at a Paris exhibition and of , ... - , -, . . e j a. wmcn ii nas oeen saiu mat iz is one ui uuo wuan perfect productions of art of our .time. The American Magazine is an excellent periodical, but it will be better, doubtless, when : Mr. Edgar Fawcett's story, ' 'Oliver Delaplaine," is ended, x. The too evident purpose of the -writer, to teach v profound moral lessons under the guise of so-ealled romance is depressing to the reader's spirits. Among the pleasing contributions to the January number is & description by Hamlin Garland of corn-husking on a" prairie farm. The picture is unquestionably drawn from life, but bears . little resemblance to the New England corn-huskings, which have been celebrated in song and story. Alice Wellington Rollins writes with enthusiasism of "Musical Training in Schools" and puts forward some good arguments in its favor. St. Nieholas for January is particularly happy in its illustrations.' By, themselves they afford a . half hour's . pleasant entertainment. Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett's "Sara Crewe, or What Happened at Miss Minchin's," seems likely to attain as great a popularity among i'uvenile readers as did "Little Lord Fauntleroy. Elizabeth Robins Pennell's account of the "London Christmas Pan tomines" "will bring regret to the minds of. American children that this form of amusement is not produced in home theaters. Among other holiday features, the story by MaryE. Wilkins, entitled "Where the Christmas Tree Grew," may be specified as particularly pleasing. "Woman" is the name of a new magazine with an, attractive cover issued by the "Woraans' Publishing Company, of New York." : Investigation into the contents fails to disclose any special reason for its being, though some of the contributions are meritorious in their way. There would seem, however, to be no urgent demand for another periodical to discuss dress, household decoration and cookery, and with the exception of these three departments, the contributions are as well adapted to the consideration of "man" as of "woman." The purpose of the new enterprise may develop in later issues andf justify the venture. Published in New York. . . r ; "', .. : - The Art Age, which devotes : considerable attention to architecture, issues two fine photogravure supplements with it3 January number, one being a competitive design for the Eighth Regiment Armory, New York, the other a competitive design for the Toronto court-house. A third supplement is a wood engraving of a landscape by the late William Bliss Baker, which i3 a very effective piece of work. The litarary features of this magazine are of a high, order. Gilliss Brothers & Turnure, New York. Being aiholiday number, the Overland Monthly for January is mainly given up to fiction and verse. A paper by President Holden, of the University of California, on the subject of earthquakes is the only "solid" article. The Professor's conclusion that there is less danger toTJalif ornia from earthquake than from cyclones in the middle West, or from lightning in the East, must necessarily be comforting te Pacific coast readers. The fiction is of good literary quality. , . ' ....-- .. In the amount of literature furnished to its readers, the English BJustrated Magazine bears no comparison with American monthlies of the same class, but in literary and artistic quality it holds its own. Typographically it is particularly attractive. A serial story by Mrs. Molesworth is one of the features of the year. The special feature of the Magazine of American History for January is a sketch' of Thurlow Weed's home and home-life in New York city, by Mrs. Lamb. It is accompanied with illustrations, and a portrait of Weed forms the frontispiece. , ' L. Schick & Co., of Chicago, issue in pamphlet form an "Abridged Grammar of Volapuk," by Prof. Kerckhoffs.

Bridgeport Dispateh to St. Louis Globe.Depiocrat. Two or three years ago one of the professors at Yale had a black cat, upon which not a white hair could be found. Barnura advertised for such an animal, and soon the professor's cat disappeared. Two days after Barnum's winter quarters burned out the black cat came back to her former master's home, and it is believed that she was stolen and sold to Barnum. The distance over the road on which puss traveled is about nineteen miles. A Democratic Opioton. New Albany Publio Press (Dem.) Cleveland can't carry Connecticut. Cleveland can't carry New Jersey.

GEORGE TELEPHONE S64. LETTERS FK03I THE PEOPLE. ) A Suggestion to Journal Reader?.' To the Editor of the lndianaoolis Journalt ' ; If it would not be, intruding upon your valuable space, I would like to ofter through the Journal a suggestion to the readers of that paper. This is campaign year, and the Journal will no doubt contain an abundance of "mighty good reading, " and that this reading may reach the greatest number of voters possible, I would suggest to all those who take the Daily that they organize m tneir respective towns, a cmo ior the dissemination of Republican literature, and that each subscriber save all the Journals received each week, turn them over to a committee appointed for the purpose, to be mailed regularly once a week to those too poor to subscribe for a State paper, or who in the judgment of the club would be most susceptible to this influence. The trouble and expense of collecting and mailing these papers would be small, while the good done could only be realized when the ballots are counted next In ovember. Jamestown, Ind. A Republican. A Card from Alderman Tonsey. To tne Editor of the Indianapolis Joarnak In speaking of the organization of the new board of aldermen, the Sentinel takes occasion to refer to me as being "in bad repute among my fellow-members," and likely to be very unpopular among them, and under the control of Mr. Connett, I care nothing for the mouthings of the Sentinel, as I never read it,, but I feej called upon to offer an abject apology to both my conscience and my intellect; but I do desire; to say to my colleagues that, while I shall make no effort to influence any one's personal likes, or dislikes, considering them each man's private property, still I do propose to so regulate my official walk and conduct as to be able to de-; mand as a right their regard and respect for me in my official capacity at least. . , I consider myself to be under the control of one man, and that one, myself, t I consider that I have been placed in my present position, not to enter into unless dissensions, or to redress personal grievances, but to 1 abor in harmony with my colleagues for the good of all classes of citizens regardless alike of race, station or political bias, and I shall so act. , Will E. Tousev, Alderman Second District, IWDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 4. Tbe White Men nf Jsckson, Uin. To the Editor of the Indiananolis Journal: -I see in the Journal of the 5th a statement that at the recent city election in Jackson, Miss., the Democratic ticket was elected because the 324 negroes were not allowed to vote, under threats of violence. The inference to be drawn is that the white Republicans own and operate almost everything of commercial value in the town, and that the white Republicans and the negroes who vote with them are a majority of the voters. It occurs to me, a3 1 believe it would to every Northern Republican, that if those Jacksoa Republicans will stand bv and permit such things as they charge to be done, they are not worth much. The Republicans of our locality, although a small minority, would fight before they would allow the majority to intimidate voters, and our Democrats know it. Are the Jackson, .Miss.. Republicans a f air sample of Southern Republic ans generally! xi tney are, xne ooux.n wiu aiwavs be solid until some Northern men get in there: and if they are, they are not worth making any fuss about. w.

Martin Irons, leader of the strike of 1S86 on the Southwestern system, is to-day the presiding genius oi a utua eLim aii mo x: auyu-sircci, end of the Biddle marltet. His voice, once heard inciting the strikers to stand up for their demands, now softly urees the merits of "bulk oysters by the plate or pmt ' ana the beauties or a stock of candy laid in for the Christmas trade. A reporter last evening met Mr. Irons at his stand. He is greatly changed from the former days, and as he earnestly assured a customer . . . . ... 1 i ! I - Jl A. , " .

"Be men, or 'The restoration to duty of our brethren we demand." Forgotten by the thousands who called him "the little Napoleon." Irons now presides over his little stock of nuts, candies, oysters and a job lot of plaster images, glad to turn an honest penny. A Hint to tbe Girls.
