SHORT SESSION OF CONGRESS, Hod. E. B. Lewis, onr immediate mil a I ile representative in Congress, i- already at the national capital and, with others of the Georgia delegation, »ill ho on hand tomorrow when the »!iort session of Congress is convened. Many highly important measures will l i n ought np for consideration at this - -ion, quite likely. l'irst in importance, quite likely, "ill he tho subject of a revision of the tillin', and, unless all signs fail, the tariff will not be revised. President Koosevelt may he exceedin !.v in earnest in his expressed de sire to see the schodulo amended, hut with the'eomposition of Congress nl most identically the same ns during the long t<4m, when the intluenco of tln‘ trusts and monopolies were domi nant, it is not likely that even the -trenuous president will bo able to make a breach in the walls. Tho ship subsidy bill, which passed the Henato in tho early part of the long term, will come before the honse, and in all likelihood go down to defeat. The champions of the measure are pro- lured to make a hard fight for it, but as its provisions do not appeal to enough coporate interests, the out look for its enactment is dreary. Then thero is the Cuban reciprocity mensuse. Considerable has been written and said about the blanket Indians who rounded up the measure before, to tho effect that thoy had repented. But tho recent election contained no re buke to them, and it is reasonable to suppose they will accordingly remain on guard, with drawn knives and painted faces, to kill and scalp all ns before. Also thero is Mr. Cmmpncker’s in quiry election resolution, proposing an investigation of tho franchise in tho South. Mr. Boosevelt is now said to be lending his support to tho meas ure, but as Mr. Crumpacker was un able to rally a coporul’s guard around his bloody shirt of a flag Inst session, it is not probable that ho will now succeed where he before failed. A resolution introduced in tho Honso a day or two ago doclores it to be tho I sense of the General Assembly that tho I common school fund allotted to each county shall bo apportioned by tho I county board among tho whites and I negroes in proportion to tho amount of I taxes paid by each race.

Healthy mothers have healthy children, and it is the general testimony of those who huve used Dr. Pi.n-o’a 1*nt„ who have used Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription as a preparative for mother hood, that the children were healthier and happier than those bom after months of mental misery and physical anguish on the part of the prospective mother.

The train waa juat pulling out of a small station on the main lino when a city man Jumped on and.'as there was no other seat vacant, shared the one occupied by the country girl. To tho writer, who >vas sitting oppo site, it was easy-to see the newcomer was trylpg to make n ‘‘mash.’ 1 Tho girl, however, was rending a Bible, and ns he found his fidgeting did not at tract her attention ho cast his eyes over tho ear for other prey. This was not encouraging, so he started un onslaught on the girl next to him. "Pardon me," he snid, "do you bo- iiovo nil you rend in tho Bible?" “Yes, sir,” sho replied, raising her eyes from the itnge. “Not the story of Adam aud Eve?" “Yes, sir." “And of Cain and Abel?" “Yes. sir.” "But certainly you don’t behove thp atory of Jonah mid tho whale?” The girl said she believed that too. Her questioner looked puzxlcd. “But how nro you going to prove It? Ask Joimli when yon go to heaven?” The idea struck tho girl aa n good one, nnd she said she would prove ft that way. / ‘Suppose he isn’t there, what then? How would you prove It?” The girl thought n moment, then sold, "Well, In that case you might nsk him.” No other word was spoken by tho' pair during tho remainder of the trip.— Philadelphia Telegraph.
