SOUTH BEND, I ml, March 14.—A charraihg novelty in the way of asocial entertainment was a reception given by the Messrs, Birdsell in thin city Wednesday night. The hosts are owners of large factories lor the construction of wagons and buggies which have been in operation here a quarter of a eenturv. It was on the second floor of one of the large new buildings that to-night's reception was held, the hosts modestly calling the in the exquisite affair "a shop-warming" in the exquiaifc invitations sent out. Jfearl twelve hundred guests attend ed, many coming from Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, Indianapolis am! other cities. In the absence of Mr. and Mrs. J. C.

RACINE'S LIVELY COUNCIL MEETING. The Polls® Chief Chargred with Se*lw» of Duty In Liquor t'ww.

IUCINK, Wis., March 14.—An exciting meeting of the common council was held last evening and may result in charges being made against the chief of police, Charles Black, lor neglect of duty. The district attorney entered complaint against four saloonkeepers for violation of tho excise laws and selling liquor to minors. The complaint was sworn to by Mrs. Peter Bully and the chief of police. Alderman Colbert became wrathy and atateTl that it looked rather queer that the charges should be made at this particular time, meaning that the coming election was to be fought on the liquor issue. He changed the chief oljKjlice with violating the duties of the Office in not reporting every month and refusing to report when aa&ed. The officer was present and was asked to explain, but had nothing to say. A war of words ensued between the fiery alderman and district attorney, The whole matter was flually referred to the police committee, and it is said that the saloonmen will have their license revoked and that the chief of police may lose his head,

maiden who resides in Tokio the naval cadet came out victorious. Unable to control himself, the vanquished rival at last took refuge in that meanest of warfare, the telling of tales. He wrote to his friends in Japan that the cadet was a ted man, describing his faults, and made the poor fellow appear a heartless ogre.

These tales finally reached the ears of the girl, who said she didn't believe them. Then she sat down and wrote her cadet lover all she had heard. In due time her tear stained missive reached Annapolis, and since then—a month ago—the maligned Jap has eaten beef by the pound and given himself up to swinging Indian clubs, sparring and practicing the broadsword exercises.

A week since he found himself devoid of an ounce of superflous flesh and thirsting for gore. During all this time he had been careful to continue friendly with his rival, and a few nights ago invited tho latter up to his room. When they got there the cadet locked the door, tied the key to his belt, closed the windows,cleared the room of bric-a-brac, and piled chairs, tables, etc., on his bed. Then he stripped, telling the other to do the same and prepare to receive the most awful thrashing on record since David slew Goliah.

A minute later the cadet seized his rival by the throat and slammed him against the wall. When the slanderer crawled to his feet he was promptly knocked through the glass doors of a bookcase Ten seconds later he was whirling about that room like a crazy cyclone. When the cadet was tired he washed himself, put on his clothing, and told the other that he would be back in five minutes with witnesses to hear an apology. Then he went out, locking the door after him.

But while he was absent the tale bearer tore down the curtains, made a life line of them, and swung out of the window dropping to the ground. He did not dare go to Washington alone for fear he should meet the cadet, so he paid a policeman to accompany him thither. On the way they did meet the cadet and his friends, and an apology was voluntarily forthcoming. Last Saturday night a number of American cadets went in a body to their Japanese colleague, congratulating him and approving his action. They sent their respectful compliments to the happy maiden in Tokio, but added a request that she persuade her lover to remain in the United States navy.—New York Sun.

Letter from Stanley.

"WASHINGTON, March 14.—The House committee on elections heard arguments to-day in the case of Miller vs. Elliott. The committee on postofficea heard an argument from Jarvis Patton favoring the use othis multiplex system of telegraphy. Arguments were made before the commerce committee favoring an increase in allowance for the pay and excuses of the life saving employes. The orld's Fair committee informally considered the bill as prepared by the full committee, but took no action and wdl meet again this afternoon.

The House this morning refused to concert in the recommendation of the Committee of the Whole to strike out the enacting clause bill allowing compensation to Albert H. Emery, forexpenditures in constructing a testing machine for iron and steel under the directions of the government and referred the bill back to the committee. The House then went into a Committee of the Whole to resume the consideration of the bill when long dispute arose as to whether the bill should be considered at the point where it was left off when last before the committee. Prior to going into a committee of the whole, Speaker Reed announced las his decision on the question propounded recently by McMellan as to whether cases adjudicated by the court of claims during the past Congress should have precedence on the calendar over those adjudicated during the present Congress, that he could find no law on rule of the

JSEW ORLEANS, March 14.—The rain has fallen now fifty-four hours along the river, the total fall exceeding five inches, The river here has risen one and a half inches in the last twenty-four hours. The government gauge this morning shows sixteen feet and six-tenths, a fall of four-tenths from the highest point reached yesterday afternoon. The streets here are free from overflow water except at St. Peters street, and it is slight there. A private levee on Davis island in Lake Concordia has given way, flooding several plantations. Up the river the situation is practically unchanged. Water in most places continues high and is rising slowly at several points. ______

On one occa sion three men who went ashore without leave were ironed together with two sets of irons at Cronstadt. Several men were ironed together for drunkenness Sergeant Gallagher said most of the trouble was due to the tough gang, of which Walker was the toughest.

The Oklahoma Bill.

WASHINGTON, March 14.—The House yesterday passed the Oklahoma bill which is substantially as follows:

To fix the boundaries of the new terri tory, so as to include the Cherokee outlet with a provision that no lands which the Indians occupy, under treaty or law shall be included without their consent, except for judicial purposes. They ex tend over the new territory the constitu

tion

and laws of the United. States and the code of Nebraska, without interference with the local Indian govern ment's action under their treaty rights. Seven counties are established. The county seats are to be at Guthrie, Oklahoma City, Norman, Lisbon or Kingfisher, Beaver, Stillwater and one more to be fixed by the Secretary of the In terior. The Cherokee outlet is declared to be public land and open to settlement under the homestead laws, and bonafide settlers and occupants are given a preference right. The sections after No. 24 are devoted to the establishment of judicial system in the Indian territory which is to divided into three districts and courts are to be held at Musagee and Vinita, Ottoka ami Ardmor© and Puree!

The resolution passed in secret session authorising the committee to make investigation was shown to Mr. Harris, which he. said was perfectly satisfactory, although it did seem to be a betxaval of executive session matters by the committee, and he was sworn. He declined to answer when he was asked how he obtained a report of the proceedings of the secret sessions of the Senate.
