Monday —The attendance of senators
Monday morning was not indicative of
any great success having attended the
telegraphic summons of the vice presi¬
dent recalling absentees. The vice pres¬
ident stated that no less than thirty-one
such telegrams had been seDt out, aud he
laid before the senate four telegrams re¬
ceived by him alleging sickness as the
cause of absence. These were from
Messrs. Wi son, Ca-ey, Dolphand Faulk¬
ner. L aves of absence were granted, be¬
sides, to Mr. Piatt, for the remainder of
the session, and Mr. Gibson, of Louisiana,
for Tuesday. On motion of Mr. Hawley,
the invitation of the Grand Army of the
Republic at the encampment in Septem¬
ber was accepted committee on the part of the sen¬
ate, and a of five senators pro¬
vided fur. The house joint resolution,
extending the appropriations included in
the sundry civil bill tiff Thursday receiv¬
ed from the house was laid before the
senate and pa-sed.
Tuesday.—T he attendance of senators
Tuesday was still smaller than on Mon¬
day, or during most of last week. The
vice president laid before the senate the
resolution reported Monday for the ap¬
pointment of a select committee of seven
s nators on the employment of Pinkerton
detect ves in labor troubles. A general
discussion ensued. At 2 o’clock the dis¬
cussion was suspended and Mr. Butler
offered a resolution for the reference of
gtntral appiopriation bills at the next
ses-i >n and thereafter to the standing
committees having the subject matter in
chaige, leaving only to the appropriations
committee the legislative, executive and
judiciary appropriation pensions bills, bill the sundry
civil b. 11, the and de¬
ficiency bill. He asked that the
reso'ution be laid on the table, and
he gave notice that he would call
it up at the beginning of the next ses¬
sion. Mr. Gorman asked leave of ab¬
sence for Mr. Hill for the remainder of
the session, and it was granted. further The
Pinkerton resolution was then
discussed and finally adopted without
division. It provides for a select investigate com
nuttee of seven senators to
and teport facts in relation to the em¬
ployment for private purposes of armed
bodies of men or detectives in connec¬
tion with differences between workmen
and employers; reasons for creation of
such organ zed bands of armed men,
their character aud uses; where, when,
how and by whom they have been em¬
ployed aud paid, and under what au¬
thority. Several private bills were passed,
and the senate adjourned.

The Watson Investigation.
Watsoo’s statement to the committee
and his statements in his book revealed
the fact that Judge James E. Cobb, of
the Tuskeuee, Ala., district, was the
speaker referr< d to. Cobb’s name was
made public at his request. He said it was
generally known that the charge was
against him and he wished an opportun¬
ity to refute it. All Mr. Watson’s wit-
nesses expressed the op ition that he was
intoxicated when he made his speech in
tne N'*yes Rockweli c se. Mr Rock-
well, in whose favor Judge Cobb was
> d that he had Cobb
arguing, test fi seen
before, after and all duriQg his speech,
and that he was not in the sm He t de-
gree intoxicated. Co’onel Oates, of A’a-
hams, testified that he had known Cobh
twenty-seven years; that ho was not a
drinking man ; that he stood high in his
church; that his character was above
.eproach. He said that Cobb was physi-
C ally week; that he was making a long
and c ireful argument; that some fnenu
sent to his desk a stimulant (whiskey he
supposed); Jnner th it C. b » sipped it; that h.s

further It is of sufficient im¬
portance to the New-’ readers to report it to
them fullv. It was so important then that
it attracted considerable attention nt the
lime. The following is the paragraph i
question! Northrop, 2s of
“C. B. for vears one t
best known merchants on Woodward a-
nue, who was supposed to be dying 1.
spring of locomotor ataxia, or creepi g
paralysis, has secured a new lease of life a si
returned to work at his store. The disease
has a’ways been suppose 1 to be incurable,
t ut Mr. Northrop’* condition is greatly im¬
proved, and it looks now as if the grave
would be cheated of its prey."
Since that time Mr. Northrop lias steadily
improved, not only in looks, but in condition,
till he has regained his old-time strength.
It had been hinted to the writer of this
article, who was acquainted with Mr.
Norttirop, that this miraculous change ha d
been wrought Williams’ by a very simple remedy
called Dr. Pink Pills lor Pale Peo-
tde. When asked atxiut it Mr. Northrop
fully verified the statement, and not
only sc, hut lie had taken pains to
inform any one who was suffering
in a similar manner when he hear 1 of any
such case. Mr. Northrop was enthusiastic
at the result in his own case of Dr. Williams’
Pink Pills. It was a remedy that he had
heard of after he had tried everything he
could hope to give him relief. He had lieen
in the care of the best physicians who did all
ihey could to alleviate this terrible malady,
hut without any friend avail. He had given up
hope, when a in Lockport, N. Y.,
wrote him of the case of a person there who
had been cured in similar circumstanc s by
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People.
The person cure i at Lockport had
obtained his information respecting
Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills from an article
published in called the Hamilton, ‘‘The Hamilton Out., Miracle’’ Times.
The case was
and told the story of a man in that city who,
after almost incredible suffering, was pro-
nouuced by the most eminent disabled. physicians to
be incurable and permanently He
had spent hundreds of dollars in all sorts of
treatment and appliances only to be told in
the end that there was no hope for him, and
that cure was John impossible. The person Little al¬
luded to (Mr. Marshall, of 25
William St., Hamilton, Onf,,) was a mem¬
ber of the Royal Templars of Temperance,
and after having been pronounced perma¬ physi¬
nently disabled and incurable by the
cians, was paid the the J1000 disability for insurance in

utterly helpless, and was barely able to drag
himself around his house with the aid of
crutches. His agonies were almost unbear¬
able and life was a burden to him, when at
last relief came. Some months after
he had been paid Williams’ the Pink disability Pills
claim he heard of Dr.
and was induced to try them. The result
was miraculous; almost from the outset au
improvement was noticed, and in a few
months the man whom medical experts had
said was incurable, was going about the
city healthier and stronger than before. Mr.
Marshall was so well known in Hamilton
1 hat all the city newspapers wrote up his
wonderlul recovery in detail, and it was
thus, as before stated, that Mr. Northrop
came into possession of the information that
led to his equally marvelous recovery. One
could scarcely conceive Mr. Northrrm. a case more His hopeless injury
than that of

four years ago, he stumbled and lell the

head and spine were severely injured. He
was picked up and taken to his home. Creep¬
ing paralysis very soon developed itself, and
in spite of the most strenuous efforts
of friends and physicians the ter-
rible affliction fastened itself upon him.
For nearly two years he was perfectly
helpless. He could do nothing to sup¬
port his strength in the least effort. He had
to be wheeled about in au invalid’s chair.
He was weak, pale and fast sinking wtien
his timely information came that veritably
snatched his life from the jaws of deatu.
Those who at that time saw a feeble old man
wheeled into his store on an invalid’s ctiair
would not recognize the man now, so great
is the change that Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills
have wrought. Wheu Mr. Northrop learned
of the remedy that had cured Mr. Marshall
in Hamilton, and the person in Lockport, Pink he
procured a supply of Dr. Williams’
rills through Messrs. Bassett A L’Homme-
dieu, US Woodward avenue, uud from the
outset lound au improvement. He faithfully
adhered to tne use of the remedy Mr. until Northrop now
he is completely restored.
declares that there can be no doubt as to
Pink Pills being the cause of his restoration
to health, as ail other remedies and medical
treatment lett him in a con lition rapidly go¬
ing from bad to worse, until at last it was
declared there was no hope for him ami he
was pronounced incurable. He was iu this
lerri Die condition when he begun to use Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills*, and they have restored
bun to health.
Mr. Northrop was asked what was claimed
lor this wonderlul remedy, md replied claim that
he understood that the proprietors it

is claimed by the proprietors that Pink Pills

diseases peculiar to females, loss of appetite, and
dizziness, sleeplessness, hiss of memory,
all diseases arising from overwork, mental
worry, loss of vital force, etc.
“I want to say,” said Mr. Northrop, “that
I don’t have much faitli in patent medicines,
but I cannot say too much in favor of Dr.
Williams’ Pink Pills. The proprietors,how¬ patent med¬
ever, claim that they are not a

but a highly scientific preparation, and the exoeri- re¬
sult of years of careful stu iy

cycle at the World’s fair. A skycycle
comes under the head of flying machine-.
The Wisconsin World’s fair building
will have a $5,000 grand staircase, the
donation of the Morgan company, one of
the best known firms of the state.
The board of trade and citizens of
Fargo, N. D., have undertaken to raise
$30,000 to supplement the state's World’s
fair appropriation of $25,000.
^"tteiflies to the number of 150,000
v >e shown in the Pennsylvania collection ex
at the World’s fair. The
.0 to be the most complete and finest
1 . ,e world.
It is s:odmated that the thirty five rail¬
roads wliicn enter Chicago Will expend
$110,000,000 in increasing and improv¬
ing their equipment and facilities for
transporting World’s fair visitors and
freight.
Costa Rica’s pavillion at the World’s
fair will be surrounded by gardens orna
mented by a profusion of tropical pavillion plants, will
aud in the galleries of the
be placed more than three thousand beau¬
tiful birds,many of which have very gor¬
geous plumage.
Conspicuous in the shoe and leather
exhibit at the World’s fair will be the
display made by Lynn, Mass. Lynn is
the largest shoe producing centre in the
United States, fully seventy five and per¬
haps one hundred of the shoe manufact-
urers of th t city will furnish exhibits.
They are acting in harmony in the mat-
ter.
Thomas Cook & S m of London, the
well known tourists’ agents, have notified
the transportation department of the
World’s fair that they intend to make an
exhibit of means of transportation inclu¬
ding the following: Norwegian carriole,
Norwegian sleigh, Lapland dog sleigh,
Iiish car,Neapolitan cart,Turkish caique. and
Palestine encampment, camel saddle
harness, elephant with howdah. Bombay
bullock cart, catamaran, Chinese palan¬
quin, Japanese jinriksha,antique English char¬
sedan chairs, old English traveling
iot, models of dububeahs and Nile steam
ers, models of boats and also to show
models ef various Egyptian temples.
France intends to show its skill in
landscape gardening at the World’s fair.
A cablegram has been received from the
French commission asking that it be al¬
lowed to do and bear the expense of the
“whole decorution of the spaces sur¬
rounding the horticultural and the wo¬
man’s building.” This generous offer,
doubtless, will be accepted if it does not
interfere with plans too far advanced to
be changed. The French are world-
renowned as artistic landscape gardeners, have
and it i- believed they would hardly
made the offer referred to unless they
inteud to make a d splay of surpassing
b auty. The commission asked also for
00,01 0 square (eet for the French horti¬
cultural exhibit.
