)\l MASON ANGERED
j rit ish Consul at New Orleans
Criticised American Officers.
m faC T IS AIRED IN TBE SENATE
Relations Committee! Roasted.
FOr Slmsu Make. Speeds O-Phil
ippine Policy.
4fter some routine business in the
jenate, Monday, Mr. Mason, of Illi
nois, rising to a q ne9tioll of Personal
privilege, had read an interview pur
porting to have been held with the
British consul at New Orleans, in
which the Illinois senator was criti
cised for his speech in sympathy with
the Boers. Mr. Mason severely criti
iged the British government, nofc the
people, saying that not- one-tenth of
[be English people favored the pres
ent war in South Africa and that 95
per cent of the people of this country
sympathized with the Boers.
‘He said that it was not the first
time British diplomats had interfered
in American politics, and he desired to
have attention called to this matter
now before it could injure the present
administration as it had injured Mr.
Cleveland.
Mr. Lodge said he did not think the
diplomatic or consular officer of any
government had the right to criticise
a senator or a representative or any of
ficer of the government. Mr. Lodge
said the gallant fight the Boers wero
making stirred the heart of every man.
Mr. Mason criticised the foreign re
lations committee for taking no action
npon the resolution of sympathy.
Mr. Mason then resumed his criti
cism of England. He said England
had made tho war for the purpose of
getting the rich mines of South Africa.
Mr. Platt, of Connecticut, said at
the close of Mr. Mason’s speech that
he wished to enter his protest against
“the abuse of free speech on the floor
of the senate.”
Mr. Pettigrew, speaking on a reso
lution relating to contraband of war,
said that the doctrine that a beligerent
might seize foodstuffs even if it paid
for them, would mean that in case o!
war between our two best customers,
our trade with both would be des
troyed.
At 1:45 p. m. Mr. Tillman, of South
Carolina, took the floor and made a
speech on the Philippine question. It
was a vigorous denunciation of tha
administration’s Philippine policy.
He denied that the blood of the sol
diers in the Philippines was upon
those who favored imperialism. Tha
president of the United States, by ne
gotiating tho treaty of peace and
"buying the Filipinos.” and those
senators who assisted in ratification of
the trea'y were responsible for the
present war. Mr. Tillman said that
the United States cannot govern any
territory that does not belong to the
United States, and where our flag
floats the constitution and the princi
ples of the declaration of independence
must be in force.

Fought When the Truth was Told.
“When General Grant was Presi
dent,” said Henry Willetts, of Wash
ington, at the Hotel Imperial, “a cer
tain friend of Ills came out of the West
to see him. One day, just after leav
ing the White House, this friend fell
.n with a fellow Westerner in tho
White House grounds, and a heated
encounter took place, which suddenly
terminated by the General's friend
knocking the other man down and out.
The matter was hushed up. but the
General, naturally indignant, called
his friend to account, saying. ‘John,
you’ve treated me and the office I hold
with much discourtesy. Why did you
do such a thing?’ ‘Well, it was this
way, General,’ replied the now thor
oughly penitent one, ‘you know there
was bad blood between us, and he had
set all sorts of stories going about me.
Just after leaving you I ran into him,
and he at once accused me of doing a
certain thing. As it was a lie, I only
laughed at him. Then he accused me
of something else, and that being also
a lie, I jeered at him again, but his
third accusation was true, and I
couldn’t stand that, so I knocked him
down.’ ’’—New York Tribune.
In German cities merchants are not
allowed to put up “selling out” signs
unless they are honest. In Mayence a
fine of $125 Is Inflicted for every
transgression of this law.
Artificial Sight.

Half

Cured Me
“About thirty years ago I
bought a bottle of Ayer’s Hair
Vigor to stop my hair from
falling out. One-half a bottle
cured me. A few days ago my
hair began to fall out again. I
went to the medicine shelf and
found the old bottle of Hair
Vigor just as good as when I
bought it.”— J. C. Baxter,
Braidwood, 111., Sept. 27, 1899.

too free or offensive perspiration, in the form of washes,
for ulcerative weaknesses, and for many sanative antiseptic
purposes which readily suggest themselves to women, and
especially mothers, and for all the purposes of the toilet,
