After the Keceptlon ot Cleveland's An
ttila I Message—An Air of Sadness In
the House as a Result of- Crisp's Itea’tVi.
Washington - , Dec. 7.—The reassem
bling of congress for the closing session
of the Fifth-fourth congress was an oc
casion of unusual brilliancy and inter
est. The opening day is always a gala
affair, marking as it does the official in
auguration of the social as well as the
political season in Washington. But
this time it was all the more interesting
because of the long and hard fought po
litical battle that had been waged dur
ing the recess.
The weather was perfect, clear and
fairly warm. The throngs who streamed
up the hill to witness the opening cere
monies formed an organized civic pa
geant. Gay equipments, with a rattle
of Chains, drawn by prancing steeds,
conveyed the diplomats, the fashion
ables and the more official in political
life. Thes' elegant turnouts moved
side by side with one-horse, ramshackle
cabs and ot 1 er nondescript two wheel
ers. conveying legislators and visitors.
The unnumbered thousands moved up
Pennsylvania avenue on foot or in
street cars.
The corridors and galleries were soon
thronged, there were demonstrations
for conspicuously prominent statesmen,
and at last ame the drop of the gavel
with the re rular ceremonies attending
the opening of the session and the re
ception of tne president’s annual com
munication to congress.
Senate Galleries Filled.
The senate chamber was a center of
interest long before the hour for assem
bling had arrived, and by 11 o’clock the
public galleries were filled and, crowds
were at the entrances unable to gain
admission. Sir Julian Pauncefote, ac
companied by members of his staff and
several of the diplomatic corps, were in
the gallery , eserved for foreign repre
sentatives, and with them were several
ladies bearing cards from Secretary
Olney.
In the seats reserved for the vice pres
ident’s fan ily and friends sat Mrs.
Stevenson ami several ladies. . Back of
them, in the seats reserved for the fam
ilies of the senators, were many of the
w v s and daughters of those pioniinent
on the floor. In the gallery the crowds
found ease and comfort in the new
theater seat put in since the last ses
sion closed, Jthough it resulted in re
ducing the seating capacity almost one
half. The senators were rather late in
arriving.
Mr. Palmer (Dem.) of Illinois came
in about 11:30 o’clock and was the cen
ter of interest from the galleries owing
to his prominence in the recent cam
paign.
Mr. Tillman (Dem.) of South Caro
lina also came in for considerable atten
tion as he went to his desk and busied
himself wit.i writing.
There was plenty of color to greet the
senators, for the floor of the chamber
looked like a conservatory with many of
the desks bearing superb floral decora
tions. The senate officials were quick
to note that the tributes stood “16 to
1,” 16 being on the Republican side and
one on the Democratic side. But this
proportion was broken as many Demo
cratic boquets were brought in as the
session progressed. One for Mr. Wal
thall (Dem ) Mississippi showed a
graceful floral crescent bearing the
word “Mississippi.” The other offer
ings were for Messrs. Cullom, Proctor,
Mantle and Thurston and to Messrs.
Vest, Smith aud Blackburn. Pasco,
Morgan aud Voorhees. The latter re
ceived a superb tribute of pink and
yellow roses.
Exactly at 12 o'clock the vice presi
dent entered the chamber and going to
the desk of the presiding officer, gave a
tap, which brought the senate to order,
after which the blind chaplain, Rev.
Dr. Miburn, delivered an impressive in
vocation.
Great Crowd In the Hon*e,
The house presented a very animated
scene an hour before Speaker Reed ap
peared. The galleries to which the pub
lic were admitted without cards were
crowded to the doors before 11 o’clock,

Back, Sides or Joints, often mistaken tor Rheu

Bowels alternately costive and lax; Headache;
Loss of Memory, with a painful sensation of

who were unanie to gain entrance. The
reserved_galleries tilled more slowly,
but before 12 o’clock were brightaneu
with the liandsome gowns of fair
Women;
From the floor below arose - an inde
scribable buzz of mahy. voices/'as the
members exchanged ..greetings With
much handshaking, after the manner of
college students meeting again after the
. long vacation. There were reminis-'
cences of the campaign, explanations
of of .victory, bon
gratulations and condolencdh, -The aisles
were crowded with outsiders, many -<ff
them lochl' politicians, already besieging
their for the fruits of the Ber\
vices rendered, lobbyists already, press
ing bills in which',they were interested
and old claimants hoping against hope
that this session would see the Consum
mation of theii long deferred desire.
Pages were hurrying about, carrying
to the seats of members flowers and flo"
ral pieces from constituents or admiring
friends. Amofig the members thus hon
ored were Messrs. Turner of; Georgia.
Howard of Alabama. Fletcher of ‘Min
nesota, Jkomwell of Ohio, Gibson of
Tennessee, Bailey of Texas, Lorimer of
Illinois, Lacey of lowa, Loud of Cali
fornia. Livingston and Belknap of Illi
nois and Burton of Ohio.
bi the midst of the general rejoicing
there was an nir of sadness as the mem
bers glanced at the black pall which
covered the conspicuous desk of the
'■late ex-Speaker Crisp, the Democratic
leader. On it was some flowers. His
portrait in the lobby of the house was
also decorated with calla lillies. The
ex-speaker’s death cast a shadow all
over the house aud was especially ap
parent on the Democratic side, where
his loss will be keenly felt.
Chrysanthemums For Mercer.
On the desk of Mr. Mercer of Ne
braska, secretary of the congressional
campaign committee, was a huge shield
of chrysanthemums and American
beauty roses, across which was written,
f i immortelles, the words “The Secre
tary,” while Mr. Babcock’s of Wiscon
sin, the chairman of the committee,
was in the nature of a chair of roses and
soft moss.
There were many conspicuous per
sonages both on the floor and in the
galleries. M. Patenotre, the French
ambassador, and several other diplo
mats with their families, were in- the
diplomatic gallery.
A noticeable and per hans significant
thing was that the Ohio members were
the centre of little groups of members.
As the hands of the clock pointed to
12 Speaker Reed quietly entered the ball
and ascended the rostrum. He was at
tired in a black frock coat and looked
bronzed and vigorous. The silver mace,
the emblem of the authority of the
house, was lifted to its place on the
green malachite pedestal to the right of
the rostrum, and with a sharp crack of
the gavel, the speaker called the house
to order. The hum of conversation
instantly ceased aud the galleries be
came quiet.
Rev. Cowden of Michigan, the blind
chaplain of the house, offered the invo
cation. His prayer was simple but im
pressive. When it was finished the
I speaker ordered the clerk to call the
’ roll. While this formality was in pro
i gress the members resumed their felici-
I tations and tne indescribable war of
I many voices again deafened the ear.
I The roll call showed the presence of 271
I members.
House Ready For Business.
I As soon as the speaker announced the
i presence of a quorum and that the
house was ready to proceed to business,
a dozen members demanded recogni
tion, but the speaker first reviewed the
usual message from the senate, stating
that the senate had a quorum present
and were ready to proceed to business.
The usual formal resolutions for the
appointment of a committee to join a
similar committee of the senate aud in
-1 form the president that the house was
ready to proceed to business and an
other directing the clerk to inform the
I senate that the house-was prepared to
| proceed were adopted.
i The speaker appointed Mr. Cannon
1 of Illinois, Mr. Payne of New York and
Mr. Turner of Georgia to constitute the
i committee. The selection of Mr. Tur-
I ner was considered a significant indica
tion that tlie Georgia member would
succeed ex-Speaker Crisp as a member
of the committee on rules, as it was a
formal recognition of him as the leader
on the Democratic side.
In order to await the report of the
committee, the house, on motion of Mr.
Henderson of lowa, took a recess until
1:30 p. in.
Aching Joints
Announce the presence ot rheumatism
which causes untold suffering. Rheu
matism is due to la dio acid in the blood.
It cannot be cured by liniments or other
outward applications Hood's Sarsapa

cause of rheumatism and permanently
cures this disease. This is the testimony
of thousands of people who once suffer
ed the pains of rheumatism but who
have actually been cured by taking
Hood’s Sarsaparilla, Its great power to
act upon the blood and remove every
impurity is the secret of the wonderful

son of the St. Louis and San Francisco
railroad will arrive in Phoenix Monday
with a large party of eastern railroad
men. The trip is understood to be an
official inspection of the Atlantic aud
Pacific and its connections. The At- !

que has been leased temporarily to the |

control of the Santa Fe line to the Pa

I Washington, .Dec, 7.«—.The- Germau'
government has - lodged an bnbrgetic
protest with the 5 state department
against the action of the president in
imposing tonnage dues on German Ships
’ entering American ports. The receipt
jof this protest- will be duly acknowl-
I edged, but there the matter is likely to
rest unless the German government
shall take steps to remove the charges on
American shipping that formed the ba
\sis for the president’s proclamation. »
The contention of the German gov
> eminent is that it does not tax Ameri
’ can shipping, and that the imperial gov
[ eininient cannot be held accountable for
thfe imposition of local charges by pro
| vincial aud municipal officials.
The contention of our government, on
- the other hand, is that, regardless of
the question of who is responsible for
the levying of the port dues, their col
lection from American vessels is the
only fact necessary to’be established to
put in operation at once the Dingley
■ law, imposing tonage dues on German
: vessels. *That law is self-operative, and
,j- whenever the president shall be satis
fied that port Charges or any charges
J are imposed on American ships by a
foreign government, he must proclaim
that fact, thus setting the law in force.
Since German ships, in 1888, by Sec
retary Bayard’s act, were relieved of
tonnage dues in American ports, our
ships entering German ports have been
assessed and paid port dues to the
amount of $500,000.
Catarrh Cannot be Cured
with local applications, as they cannot
teach the seat of the disease. Catarrh is
a blood or constitutional disease, and in
order to cure it you must take internal
remedies. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, and acts direetly on the blood
and mucous surfaces. Hall’s Catarrh Cure
s not a quack medicine. It was prescribed
by one of the best physicians in this
country for years, and is a regular pre
scription. It is composed of the best ton
ics known, combined with the best blood
purifiers, acting directly on the mucous
surfaces. The perfect combination of the
two ingredients is what pioduces such
wonderful results in curing Catarrh, Send

RYDER MAY GET NtW TRIAL.
One of the Jurors Sahl tn Have Expressed
an Opinion on tlie Ch kg.
Columbus, G:i., Dec. 7.—The motion
for a new trial for Dr. W. L. Ryder
was taken up before Judge Butt, but
after the motion had been read and
three hours resumed in preliminaries
the hearing was continued until Dec
26. The state was represented by So
licitor Gilbert and Judge Martin, and
the defense by Colonel Thornton, J. H.
Worrill, A. A Carson and Captain
Jesse Bull of Talbotton.
The defense asked that a new trial be
granted on 67 grounds. Exception was
made to the ruiing of Judge Butt at the
trial and to portions of his charge. It
was claimed that important witnesses
were absent from the trial aud it was
stated that new testimony had been dis
covered.
The most important ground when it
was announced created a sensation. It
stated that one of the jurors, who had
served on the case, bad before the trial
expressed the opinion that Dr. Ryder
should be hung. This would diqualify
him. The defense stated the juror was
W. H. Jimerson.
When the motion had been read the
state asked for time in which to prepare
an answer to the motion and the hear
ing was continued until Dee. 26.

Columbia, 8. C., Dec. 6. Mrs. Buek
heit, bf Florence, S. C., was myste
riously burned to death at her home.
On the morning of her death she was
left in the house alone and in good
health by her husband.
About noon Mr. Buckheit returned to
the house and discovered that some
thing was burning, On reaching;the
room from which the smoke issued he
found his wife lying dead across the
foot of the bed, her clothing on fire.
Mrs. Buckheit was so horribly burned
as to be past recognition. It is supposed
that her clothing accidentally caught
fire while preparing dinner, and that
she rushed into the bedroom with the
intention of smothering the flames with
a quilt.
Electric Bitters.
Electric Bitters is a medicine suited
for any season, but perhaps more gener
ally needed when the languid, exhausted
feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid
and sluggish and the need of a tonic and
alternative is felt. A prompt use of
medicine has often avented long and per
haps fatal bilious feveis. No medicine
will act more surely in counteracting and
freeing the system from the mararial
poison. Bedache, Indigestion, Consti
pation, Dizziness yield to electric Bitters.

TIME
TRIED
Time proves the worth of every
thing. It is the test of honesty. It
wears off tbe exterior and exposes the
solidity or the worthlessness beneath.
There is nothing more susceptible
to time than a piano. The Kranich &
Bach is a piano which has stood the
test of time, which has stood well in
tone, which keeps its perfect action
and elastic toucli is as good as any
we can offer you. Beware of judging
hastily. Most pianos sound alike
when they are new. I will be glad to
help any one to piano wisdom who
cares to learn.
