aulogium which Mr. Holman had uttered; and Messrs. llitt; Bland, Eprmgcr and McCreary added tbeir meed of prame to the ubility and patriotiura of the retiring member. Mr. lJldant was profoundly moved by the testimony of esteem in which ho was held by his asiociates. and in a few words responded to the remarks which bad been made, and declared that whatever the future had in store for him he would ever look back to this hour as the brightest hour of his life. The Senate furnished evidence to day or the ease with which legislative business can be transacted in that body. Two hours were net apart for consideration of Mouse bills on tho calendar, and eighteen of them weie parsed, and after that the House bill to ratify theaKreement with the Chrrokees for the cession of their interest Jn the Cherokee Outlet and appropriating over eight and a half million dollars to carry it out. was taken up. discussed and passed in the shape of a substitute. With all that there wan time for a little exhibition of temper on tho part of two Democratic Senators, arising out of aifobjection by Mr. Harris, of Tennessee. .to an interruption of the regular course of proceeding by Mr. l'.ntler.of South Carolina. Tho quarantine hill was just reached when the limit of timo expired, and Mr. Harris gave notice that he would move to take it up and pass it on Monday. The question whether snch motion would not interfere with Mr. Hill's motion to take no the silver LUlaiiorded Mr. Teller an opportunity of stating that if Mr. Hill's motion should prevail there would he no other business done at this session, except passing tho regular appropriation bills. WHISKY-TRUST METHODS.
Testimony of James . Veasey Ilefore the House Intestlcatlng Committee. Washington. Feb. 4. The investigation into tho Whisky Trust was begun to-day "by the sub-committee of the House judiciary committee with the examination of James V, Veasey, of Hamilton county. Ohio. Mr. Veaaey has been a traveling salesman since ls78, and is acquainted with the details of the liquor business. He explained the difference between whisky, spirits and nlgbwines. The Distilling and Cattlofeeding Company had headquarters at Peoria, ill. lie did not know the exact number of establishments it embraoed, bnt when formed, in 1SSU. it included eighty-one firms. It produced alcohol, spirits and highwines. The company had a yttem of rebate certilicates by which t sold its goods. Persons holding these certificates are allowed a rebate of about 7 cents per gallon on spirits and from 12 to 14 cents a gallon on alcohol. The rebate Is paid only in case the firms deal entirely with tho company. These certiticatesaredistribnted by agents, and are payable in Peoria. The company's goods are sold generally throuahoot the country, and their output represented onehalf of the business in this country. The price of whisky had increased '25 cents a gallon when a great quantity of these certilicates were out. There was no occasion lor this increase; "it was a grab." There has been no increase in the cost of production or in wages; and corn, from which their prodnct is made, was cheaper than it has been for rears. There was no scarcity in the stock por increase in the consumption. He understood that there had been a change in tho company's method of doing business in the last thirty days, probably in anticipation of this investigation. The change, he thought, was regarding the rebate and voucher system. Mr. Veasey will be further examined Monday. MIX OK MATTERS. Hatch TVlll Try to Pass the Antl-Optlon 1)111, Possibly on Monday. Washington, Feb. 4. In tho House today, Mr. Hatoh reported baok the anti-option bill, with Senate amendments, and it was referred to the committee of the whole. Representative Hatch is confident that the anti-option bjll will pass and said, this evening, he would surprise the opposition somo, day by a blow between the eyes when they least expected it. It is probable that Mr. Hatch will enrieavorto mako a test of tho bill's strength on Monday by taking advantage of the rnles permitting measures to be acted on under suspension of the rules. He will Irame his motion so as to make it direct, and one which cannot be dodged on como objection not applicable to the bill itself. The opponents of the bill assert their ability to filibuster it to death, under the rules of the House, if its passage under suspension be defeated, and of this they have little doubt. Silver Senators Stirred Up. j Washington, Feb. -J. Senator II ll'a intention to call np tho bill to repeal the Sherman act, next Monday, has stirred np the silver Senators, and, though Mr. Teller believes that the motion to take up tho bill will be defeated, he is for fighting it from the start, and hitting it hard at every opportunity. It is asserted by tho lilverxnen that all tho Democrats who voted for freo coinage before will o so again, with the exception of possibly two. On tho other hand, there is said to be a feelins on the part of three or four leading Republicans, who are not silver men, and who do not want therepeal passed, that it would be bad policy lor them to antagonize Mr. Sherman, and the others who are pushing the repeat It is said that these men will unwillingly vote to consider tho measuro and then, should it comeUD. will do somequiet but energetio work in the direction of bringing about its defeat General Notes.

BEIT1SIIERS DISAPPOINTED
Gladstone, Ualfonr and Laboncliere Were Not as riignacious as Csual. First Week of tbeXew ParliamentXot Marked by the Spirit That Usually Animates tie Leaders cf the Parties. THE LEAD KHS WERE TAME. Gladstone and Ilalfour Made a Weak Showlog in the New Parliament. 8pell to ifct Indianapolis Journal. London. Feb. 4. The first week of tho new Parliament has brought with it several disappointments. Mr. Gladstone was expected to appear in line form for his years to show that anxiety to smite his foes hip and thigh which was for almost half a century his most popular characteristic. Undoubtedly Mr. Gladstone has been saving himself for the great elFort of his life, his home-rule speech next week. But making due allowances for this he has fallen lar short of expectations. Already, in his first reply to Arthur J. Balfour, leader of the Unionists, be gave evidence of fatigue before ho had spoken ten minutes, and occasionally, toward the end of his speech, labored painfully to clear his voice. Since the opening day he has save himself all save necessary explanation, and has allowed much of the government's defense to rest with Sir William llarcourt. Chancellor of the Exchequer, and the acting leader of the Liberal party. Another disappointment has been Mr. Balfour's leadership of the Conservative party. As First Lord of the Treasury he made himself the terror of the Liberals by his keenness, his tenacious pugnacity and his quickness in shifting his ground when caught at a disadvantage. So far he has been nrosv and loquacious, and has been nnable to score a point, even in the haphazard debate on the address. The third disappointment has been Henry- Labouchere. the Kadical leader, who, instead of picking a liuht with Mr. Gladstone on foreign atlairs, as the Tories had expected, contented himself with mildiy giving advico and then humbly swallowing Mr. Gladstone's retort that this advice might better have been preserved for future use. Labouchere, however, is bound to make himsolf conspicuous as soon as the home-rnle excitement shall have abated temporarily by introducing bills to suppress gradually the House of Lords. The great advantage claimed for his bill by Mr. Labouchere is that it will render tho House of Lordd even more absurd and contemptible than it is now, and thus prepare the people to abolish it altogether; for it is hardly possible that any man of brains like Lord Salisbury or Lord Kimberly would remain in the Lords after membership became a bar to Cabinet office. A companion-piece to thin bill is the measure proposing that after ISO no man shall sit in Parliament either by hereditary descent or because ho is a bishop. If tho Lords refuse tobesnutled out in this fashion Mr. Labouchere proposes that enough new lords of his way of thinking be created to make a majority for tho bill. ITALY'S HANK SCANDALS. Premier Giolitti' Conduct Singular for a Man Who Claims to lie Honest, Special to the Iudia&.ipolia JoarnaL t London, Feb. 4. The Italian bank scandals are leading rapidly up to a Cabinet crisis. Tho Italian Chamber, like 'the French Chamber recently, has been demanding a Cabinet which will devote itself to uncovering the corruption in high places, and therefore a Cabinet in no wise taipted by the scandal. Giolitti. the present Premier, is up to his ears in suspicions and rumors. His hesitancy in refuting the stories , about him, circulated under his very nose, is regarded as proof that ho is too deeply involved to court controversy. Tho contrast between his behavior and that of Crispi and Kudini. who havo demanded investigations of similar rumors concerning them, has also weakened him greatly. It is reported to-day that of 5,000,001) francs spent by King Humbert recently to redeem compromising notes civen by high politicians to the Banca Itomaua, nearly 1.500,000 went to savo the present Premier's name. Giolitti is believed to have supervised the expenditure in the last elections of the money obtained' by assessments on the six banks of issue in Italy. The money was spent to elect Deputies favorable to tho triple alliance and opposed to the Vatican. When tho government found that three Deputies formerly supposed to be safe for the Ministry were forming a separate and independent faction (iiolitti called them to a conference with him and Grimaldi. tho Minister of Justice. Two day alter the Deputies cashed checks for 25,000 francs, each drawn in their favor by the Premier, and the independent faction was never formed. The total of the sums spent by the banks of issue in the last eight years is said to approximate 4O.OO0.C0O franca. BLOODY RIOT AT BOGOTA. One Hundred Men Killed and Five Hundred Wounded In Fights with the Police. Panama. Feb. 4. There has been a serious riot at Bogota, which lasted for two days. It is said that a hundred men were killed and five hnndred wounded. Tho riots are in no sense political. The trouble grewout of a publication in La Christian of an article by Ignacio Gutterez, a professor in a local Jesuit college, alleging widespread ignorance among the laboring classes. The artisans rose en masse and a mob of about four hundred gathered about th.fi house of Gutterez.stoned tho building and broke the windows and doors. The police remonstrated with the rioters, but they were driven away. They returned with reinforcements, and a collision ocourred in which shots wero exchanged. The police were victorious. Another light occurred later in the day,' but the rioters wero dispersed. Everything was quiet the next morning, hut at 5 o'clock in the evening tho workmen gathered by thousands in San Victoriauo square, Las Cruccsward, and in the public market. They ovepowered tho police, and for a while were in full possession of tho city. Newspaper otlices were sacked and a general assault was commenced on the police barracks. The government called out the military, and after a sharp light the mob was dispersed. The capital is still in a state of siege, although it is otlioially announced that quiet has been restored. A strict local press ceusorship has been established. Blue Hook on the Egyptian AflTtlr. London, Feb. 4.

Tho Blue Pook also shows that Lord IJoseberry and M. Wadington. the French embassador, had several snappish interviews, M, Wadington disputing tho right of England to fetter the Khedive and objecting to the high-handed methods of Lord C re me r. the British representative at Cairo. Lord lloscberry retorted that the high-handedness was solely on the part of the Khedive, and that at long as British occupation continued he Lord Boseberryl would not allow the Egyptian administration to bo changed from top to bottom at the whim of tho Khedive.

But it is not tho morality of it it is the art of it we are at present disonpsina. So lar, whatever has been said bus been said solely with reference to that phase of the relation of the sexes which can be presented without apology to Anglo-Saxon ears not educated up to conttnentalmodesof speech and thought. Love, innocent, legitimate love, is not all there is in life; it is only a small part comparatively, of its experiences. There is a great deal of happiness out si do it; there are rowards, there are pleasures, there is satisfaction with which it Is entirely unassociated. There are sorrows which cause its keenest pnuzs to seem but pin-pricks, there are desolations which make its sentimental gnofs appear contemptible. Compare a broken engagement with a cancer; a laithless lover with tho oncoming of blindness. Faucy from which a man would sutler most, the coldness of his mistress or the loss of his good name. Poverty, grim and roal, is worse than the worst disappointment in love that ever was felt or pen n en. Family disgrace, spiritual doubts, the awful tears that pareuts shed, the loneliness after bereavement, the dreariness of old age, madness, august and inevitable deathhow trivial beside such facts as these look the misunderstandings of lovers, "the
( partings such as press the life from out young hearts," the manifold sentimental i borrows, so called, of the heart! This, no j doubt, is slaying the slain. We all know
theso truths, but the people who propose to write our stories for us seem not to remember them, and young and immature readers sutler by their lapse of memory. .NOEODY WANTS TO BE. PREMIER.

Dickinson'a plans have been completely uptet by this news, aud Cleveland himself has been not a little disappointed that the revolution should have occurred at this time, when it was fully expected that it would not talte place until some time in the spring. Last fall thoso who were behind the curtain which concealed tho secret movements of the campaign lrom the public were made aware that Mr. Clevoland,' Mr. Dickinson. Mr. Whitney and a lew others who wero very close to the candidate, and who were conlident of his election, wero rejoicing over tho probability that Mr. Cleveland would have opportunity to do something quite as brilliant as that stroke of diplomacy by which we secured Alaska, and as dramatic, if not as important, as the purchase of Louisiana or the accession of the Floridas. It was to be a brilliant coup, suddenly revealed, relied upon to give great nrestitio to Cleveland's administration; aud in the popular approval which it was felt would bo sure to follow, it would be oasy to carry through such measures of tariff and financial reform as Mr. Cleveland had in view. Cleveland himself wan kept well informod of this matter, and the inferenco is that Democrats of high standing wero in communication of somo sort with therepreseutativesof the popular party at Honolulu. Mr. Cleveland, notwithsanding thecautious denial recently published of any interest or any knowledge of this matter, was nevertheless enthusiastic in bis expressions of approval when tho plan was revealed to him last fall. Ho even went so fur as to turn over in his mind the nuroes of men whom he would appoint as commissioners to represent tho United' States government. It is fair to inter that Mr. Dickinson himself was to bo one of these men. All of these things were kept a profound secret, and it is only since tho premature step of tho revolutionists has become known hero that some hiuts of this secret havo been received. Mr. Cloveland was amazed ond very greatly annoyed when he received the news of tho revolution and the coming of the representatives of the provisional government. His judgment was that his Iriouds had been overreached, that tho present administration had been informed of the purposes of the revolutionists and that skillful diplomacy had been exerted to cause this important step to be taken before the expiration ot the present administration. That also was tho judgment of Mr. Dickinson, and his hurried trip to Washington may possibly lead to something of procrastination in Congress, so that after all the negotiations may be consummated by tho new administration. However, tho prestige which would attach to Mr. Cleveland's administration if this diplomacy had been suddenly made public and annexation or a protectorate established is not now possible, and some of those here who havo been informed of Mr. Cleveland's views think that he may not be disposed to permit any delay which might imperil the interest ot the government. Mr. Dickinson is in Washington as Mr. Cleveland's represetative. If he believes that delay will cost us the prize he is not likely to advocate it, but if he thinks that no danger or loss will attend delay until alter Mr. Cleveland's inauguration he may counsel the Democratic members of Congress to procraetinate. IN THE JUNGLES OF MALAY. "Creeping with Tigers" and ltlg, Wild Game Galore A Great Hunting ltegion. London Field. Of the threo great islands of the Malay peninsula as a bite game report Sumatra is said to be the best, Borneo the worst, in Sumatra all the great mammalian varieties are to be found, tho tiger, the elephant, rhinoceros, tapir, orang-outang, siamang, etc.; in Java the elephant, tapir and xorang-outang are missing, hut the rhinoceros and tiger aro represented. In Borneo, all theso large animals are unknown now, though doubtless they existed there in former days. Sumatra oilers less inducement to the general order of visitors than the others we mentioned above, for several reasons. The climate is worse, venomous snakes more numerous, and the greater part of the island, which is still unopened up, is occupied by Batak tribes who do not encourage strangers. This part of the world has been extensively colonized by the Hatch, who seem to have made themsoves universally hated, owing to the high-handed manner with which they treated the natives. If tho stranger tan succeed in persuading the Malay that, though white, h is not a Dutchman, ho will probably be well received. 1'eople who have had an opportunity of judging of their character pronounce these natives to bo peaceable, docile, sober and industrious, and the most truthful of the Ablatio races, and, in addition, skillful workers. The shikari will lind the going bad in such regions as have no roads. For hours sometimes he will have to wade waist deep in wlimy slush, not uufrequently finding himself, like the Irishman in the story, "up to th ankles in mud." but, as ho forgot to mention, "head downwards." Added to this, he must be prepared to view everything through a perlect haze of mosquitoes. Such is the home of the white rhinoceros, and thither the hunter must vcntuio who wishes to get a shot at him. Thio. it may be remarked, is by no means synonymous with bagging his pachydermatous majesty. Indeed, he oftener than not turns the tables on his pursuer, aud this considerably takes trio gilt oil the "shikurial" gingerbread. This monster is aid to be the ouly animal that will attack xnau ucprovoked, and considering that.
unwieldy though he looks, ha eaft go as fast as a horse, the encounter is no. joke. The retreating hunter's best course is to seek safety up a tree; though, unless it is a pretty stout one, this will not better his position much. Lven if it is. he may be "treed" there fora considj erable time. Unless a European is quite fever-proof, and provided with special firearm, this branch of sport is better left uu tried. However, should he bo sufficiently venturesome to attempt the Sumatra jungles, m BDito of the above enumerated drawbacks, he will probably find an undisturbed and woll-sfocked hunting ground, the island being, as I have been assured, "fairly creeptn with tigers." The Czarowitch has survived his trip in these parts, so that there is no reason why othersshouid bo deterred so long as they use ordinary care.

A Disorder Known by Diflerent garnet Which Moat People Have. Family Doctor, m Cassell's 3ia:arino. Megrim is a functional disorder, like most other nervous complaints, and depends generally upon some form of irrita lion. It is best regarded as a "nerve storm." and all its symptoms are in reality due to nerve action. The causes of megrim are numerous. Anything which lowers the tone of the system, as an a-nil a, overexertion, tends to induce an attack. Over-fatigue of the muscles of the eye, duo to the unnatural strain experienced by them during a visit to a picture gallery, is a most etliuient cause. Too long abstiuence from food, especially missing a meal, over rich or Unaccustomed food, irregular habits, indigestion, and constipation, produce gastric irritation, and consequently are immediate causes of megrim. The ' want of habitual regular exerciso partly explains why women are so much more subject to this complaiut than men, who (however t-edeutary their occupation) are generally obliged to spend a considerable time out of doors. There can be no doubt but that such games as lawn tennis and the gradual introduction of cycling as a relaxation for women have done much to provide them with necessary and attractive forms of exercise. In many cases increased physical exertion has been followed by most satisfactory results. It is obvious that many of tho causes of megrim are tinder the direct control of the sutlerer, find if he deliberately transgresses the law he does so with tho certainty of paying tho penalty. Although the regular life which those subject to megrim ought to lead may be irk some at first, tho relief from prostrating headaches is so intense that it more than counterbalances the temporary Joss of enjoyment duo to tho selfdenial of many pleasures, involving either undue excitement or interferenco with theroutinoof daily life. Heredity is an important factor in the predisposition to megrim, and many members of the smuo family may suller. There are, bowover. two other causes, apparently trivial and frequently neglected, but which are, nevertheless, very common. The first 11 an errorof refraction, causing astigmatism, and the megrim disappears when suitable glasses are supplied. The second cause.it any constant form of irritation, aB a decaying tooth, and as long as the irritation is allowed to continue so long will attacks of megrim be frequent and severe. One word of consolation: Megrim is more frequent in youth, and as years roll on it diminishes in intensity and frequency. It has been said that it implies more than average ability it is at least certain that many of our most distinguised men sutler from it. Two Joklsts. New York "Weekly.
