SENATE ACCEPTS THE MEASURE
BY A CLOSE VOTE,
BILL EXCLUDES MANY FOREIGNERS.
The Measure Passed, However, Is Broad
and Liberal—It That the
President Will Vetg the Bill.
A Washington special says: After a
hard fight the senate Wednesday eve¬
ning passed the immigration bill by a
vote of 34 to 31, agreeing to the con¬
ference report.
As heretofore explained the last
conference report eliminates those
features which were especially objected
to when the bill was first before the
senate. These were the provisions
which prevented a husband from bring¬
ing in liis illiterate wife; and the pro¬
vision aimed at Russian Jews.
The measure as it passed is broader
and more liberal. It was, however,
fought by senators who believed such
a law against the policy of this conu
try; by others who objected to the
feature shutting out the “birds of
passage,” who come for a few months
each year to work; and by still others
who contended that an educational
qualification would shut out the
European peasants, who make desira¬
ble immigrants, Imt would let tho
bars down to tlie riffraff of the cities
and towns.
It also prohibits from employment
on public works aliens who come reg¬
ularly or habitually into the United
States for tho purpose of engaging in
any mechanical trade or manual labor,
and who havo not made declaration of
intention to become American citizens.
The secretary of tho treasury, how¬
ever, may permit the entrance of aliens
for the purpose of teaching new arts or
industries. And the act is not to ap¬
ply to persons coming here from Cuba
during the present disorders there.
The tip comes very straight that the
president will veto tho bill. It adds
to the classes of excluded aliens, all
persons over sixteen years of nge who
cannot.read the English language or
some other language—except that ad¬
missible immigrants may bring with
them, or send for, illiterate parents or
grandparents (over fifty years of age)
wives and minor children.
Four democratic senators (Chilton,
Faulkner, Hill and Martin) voted for
the report, and four republicans (Hans
brough, Hawley, Mantle and Hhoup)
against it.

The Sheriff’* Coal Defiance Alone Saved
the Trembling Prisoner.
Edward Flanagan, on trial at Deca¬
tur, Ga., had a narrow escape from a
mob Wednesday evening about dark.
Sheriff By the prompt and bold defiance of
Austin, of DeKalb, however, he
escaped violence.
With a crowd of over 100 excited
men at his heels, the trembling pris¬
oner was pushed on the Georgia train
at the small station in Decatur and
hurried into Atlanta.
It was barely 6 o’clock when Judge
Candler announced that the session
for the day was finished' and ordered
the sheriff to take charge of the
prisoner.
With two or three armed deputies
Sheriff Austin came up, jfiaced the
steel cuffs on Flanagan, and hurried
him from the door. As soon as he
appeared on the outside two or three
mau gave the alarm.
The sheriff had started down a rear
street at a rapid pace. In a moment
the crowd was at his heels. Flanagan
turned. He looked like a hunted hare
and cast an appealing glance at the of¬
ficers. They quickened their pace.
Flanagan wanted to run and looked
back at every step.
With the mob was a number of men
silently determined to see that Flana¬
gan was swung up. None had thought
of the Georgia train. It was the in¬
tention of those at the head of the mob
to get hold of Flanagan just beyond
the car track near the Consolidated
line.
But the sheriff shifted for the depot.
The train wan already in sight. The
crowd became mad with disappoint¬
ment. They had planned that the
prisoner would be taken by the street
car. For some reason the mob seemed
to lack confidence. Expressions of
all kinds were yelled out, and in a few
moments violence would have been
done. But Hlioriff Austin rnslied
Flanagan on the train, and for the
time he was safe.
SHOT FROM AMBUSH.
Cowardly Assassination of a Coal Mine
Superintendent.
John I). Heck, superintendent of
the Royal Coal and Coke Company
mines at Coal Creek, was shot and in¬
stantly killed Wednesday.
The assassination has created great
excitement in the little mining town,
which is thirty miles from Knoxville,
and was the scene of tho famous riots
three years ago.
Heck had only been married a
mouth, and when the shot was fired he
was on his way to his residence. His
young wife ran out to meet him and was
just in the act of greeting him when
the shot was fired.
His heart was pierc u with a win¬
chester rifle*ball, lie •fell at his wife’s
feet, dying instantly. The assassin
is not known. He was concealed in a
thick undergrowth of trees, and when
he saw that he had killed Heck he ran
for the mountain and could bo seen
until ho reached the summit of Wal¬
den’s ridge,
A special train carrying a posse of
officers and two bloodhounds left
Knoxville during the afternoon and
took the trail toward Kentucky. More
than 300 miners, armed tg the teeth,
followed the dogs, lleck was popular
among the miners, having served for
ton years as their chief Welshman.
They swear to avenge Lis death if the
murderer can lie captured.
MOTHERS HOLD t'ONFF.RENTE.
National Congt-e** Assemble* at Wash¬
ington, to Consider Training of Youth.
The opening meeting of tho first
national congress of mothers was held
at Washington, 1>. 0., Wednesday in

Mrs. Hears!, wife of the late Senator
Hearst, one of the order vice presidents,
called the meeting to and intro¬
duced the president, Mrs. Theodore
W. Birney, of Washington, who deliv¬
ered the address of welcome. She
stated the purpose of the congress to
be in effect the consideration of sub¬
jects bearing upon the better training
of tlio young, the value of the kinder
(?hvten work and its extension, a love
of humanity and of country and of
kindred matters.
Mrs. Cleveland, by appointment, re¬
ceived the members of the congress
and their friends at the White House
after the morning session. There was
a vast gathering at tho White House
and the ushers estimated at least 1,800
people were in the body that greeted
Mrs. Cleveland.
STREET FAR MEN STRIKE.
The Whole System of Street Knllways In
tialveston. Texas, Tied tip.
The entire system of Galveston’s
street railways was tied up Wednes¬
day morning by a strike of employes.
The company recently announced that
the pay of extra conductors would be
reduced from 15 to 14 cents an hour
and their time would bo shortened.
This was unsatisfactory to the men,
and they protested. The company re¬
mained firm and the men struck.
A force from Houston is expected to I
take the place of the strikers. This J
may result in trouble. The strike in¬
volves about 100 men and 40 miles of
railway, on which traffic is now at a
complete standstill.

HE MEETS WITH REPULSE IN
EXECUTIVE SESSION.
HOUSE REVERSES ITS COMMITTEE
Kendall, Democrat, Lose* IDs Scat to
Hopkins, of Kentucky, Who
Made a Contest.
Immediately after the senate went
into executive session Thursday, Sen¬
ator Sherman, of Ohio, sought to call
up the general treaty of arbitration
with Great Britain, but he met with a
repulse at the outset. A motion was’
made that business on the calendar be
proceeded with, the argument being
that there were a number of important
nominations, particularly of a judicial
character, that ought to be acted
npori. The yeas and nays were de¬
manded and those favoring the con¬
sideration of the nomination won.
The nomination of William II, Mun
ger, of Nebraska, to be district judge
for the district of Nebraska, was con¬
firmed without opposition. The nom¬
ination of Charles F. Amidon te bo
district judge for the district of North
Dakota, was then called up. The de¬
bate on this case lasted for more than
three hours. The senate evidently
looked upon the antagonism to Mr.
Amidon in the light of political oppo¬
sition only, and by the decisive vote
of 35 to 14 confirmed the nomination,
By a further Vote of 32 to 27 the senate
decided at 5l30 to take up the arbitra¬
tion treaty and the debate on that con¬
vention began when Mr. Nelson, of
Minnesota, took the floor for the pur¬
further pose of moving the postponement of the
consideration of the treaty un¬
til March 5th. A long debate ensued.
It was nearing 7 o’clock—Mr. Sher¬
man saw that it was impossible to
keep a quorum present; lie therefore
gave notice that immediately after the
routine business of Friday he should
move an executive session, at which he
hoped the treaty would be disposed of.
In the contested case of Hopkins,
republican, vs. Kendall,democrat,from
the tenth Kentucky district, the house
Thursday, direct for the first time this ses
stem,on a issue of fact, reversed
the decision of its committee on elec¬
tions and Seated ft contestant whom the
committee had declared not elected.
The vote was 197 to 01,
The senate Wednesday agreed to a
resolution asking information regard¬
ing correspondence with Great Britain
on the seal question and directing a
suspension of tlie grant of special priv¬
ileges in the Yellowstone I’ark canyon.
Mr. Allen, (Fop.) Nebraska, then at¬
tacked the civil service system, alleg¬
ing dismissals of men and women in
the postoffiee at Month Omaha, Neb.,
for having supported Mr. Bryan.
M* Lodge called up and champion¬
ed the conference report on the immi¬
gration hill. Messrs. Palmer and Gar¬
ter opposing it because of its exclusion
of Canadians, There wits a warm de¬
bate between Palmer and Hoar and the
latter wts finally driven from tho sen¬
ate to escape the scathing administer¬
ed by the venerable Illinois member,
After a hard tight the senate passed
the bill by a vote of 34 to 3l.
The house at Wednesday’s session
refused to agree to a conference re¬
port which would have increased (he
pension of the widow of Captain J. B.
Payne from $30 to $50 a month. It
agreed to the report on the legislative
appropriation hill and disabilities passed a hill to
remove the political from
Colonel William E. Simms, a congress¬
man of ante-helliuu cays.
Tho senate Tuesday, after passing
several minor hills, including one re¬
arranging the judicial districts of Ar¬
kansas and a statement from Senator
Sherman that he will urge the arbitra¬
tion treaty Wednesday to the exclu¬
sion of all other matters, listened to a
long speech from Senator Chandler
(Rep,), New Hampshire, in favor of
bimetallism and of increased coinage
of silver as a cure for the present de¬
pressed condition of business and in¬
dustry. There was a somewhat sen¬
sational outbreak when Mr. Olinn
dler accused Mr. Pettigrew of hav¬
ing been chosen as a McKinley dele¬
gate to the St. Louis convention, and
then violating adistiaot pledge that he
would support McKinley and the gold
standard. Mr. Pettigrew branded the
statement as unqualifiedly false.
The genera! deficiency bill was re¬
ported to the house Thursday from the
committee on appropriations. The bill
carries an appropriation of $8,400,037.
Among the items in the bill arc the
following: Te enable the secretary of
the treasury to restore the com¬
pensation of employees at tho
ports of Baltimore, Buffalo, riatts
burg, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Cedar
Keys, Detroit, Kansas City, Mo.;
Mobile, Newport News, New Orleans,
Port Huron, Michigan; Pensacola,
Pembina, N. I)., and Philadelphia,
whose salaries were reduced in order
to avoid a deficiency.
Secretary Herbert left Washington
for Charleston Wednesday, accompa¬
nied by bis daughter. Miss Herbert,

ardson Clover, Mrs. W. H. Southerland,

Postmaster General Wilson has
given out' a statement showing the
gross postal receipts of the 30 largest
postoffices for tlie month of January,

ceipts for January. 1897, were $2.839,
911 and for Jnunary. 1896, $2,944,354,
a net decrease of $194,433.
The senate. Thursday, passed with¬
out a word of explanation a bill, which,
if it becomes a law, will introduce a
new postal card system. Its title is,
“A bill to extend the uses of tho mail
service.” Its purpose is to allow the
circulation by mail of the postal cards
and envelopes with coupons attached,
patented and owned by a West Vir¬
ginia corporation at regular postal
card rates, paid on presentation of the
coupons from the said cards and en¬
velopes w hen detached at the office of

No “Bakshish” in the Desert.
S. Talbot Kelly, an English artist
who has lived long among Che Arabs,
writes and Illustrates a paper entitled
“In the Desert with the Bedouin,”
which appears In the Century. In dis¬
cussing Arabian hospitality, Mr. Kelly
says: I had not much time for quiet
observation, as one by one all the head
men of the tribe called to pay their
respects to the “stranger within their
gates.” Taking off his shoos at the
entrance, each one advanced with
many salaams, and kissing my hand,
uttered the single word, “Mahubbah'."
(“Welcome!’’) They then seated them¬
selves in a long row at tlie other side
of the tent, discussing me In under
tones. No one spoke to me unad
dressed, ami even the sheik himself,
whose guest I was, would not sic on the
carpet beside me uninvited. Literally,
While rile guest of tne Bedouin your
tent is sacred, anil all the tribe are
your willing servants; and though 1
repeatedly pahl comparatively long
visits to them, I have never yet suc¬
ceeded In pressing a gift upon my
host.
I remember asking the sheik Saouo.li
cl Tahouri. chief of flic Hanaardi
Arabs, if lie knew any of the Pyramid
Arabs at Gizeh. lie replied, spitting
upon the ground, “They are not Bed¬
ouin; they take bakshish”—thereby
expressing his contempt for mercenary
service. On another occasion, while
living with the N’ephaartia, the sheik
Muu.sour Abu Nasrullah had attached
to me a young Arab whole special duty
it was to attend to my various wants
while painting. At the end of the
month I tried to Induce him to accept
a sovereign ns bakshish. Looking very
much alarmed, lie exclaimed! “Oh, my
m a si iv. I cannot; it is not allowed; tlie
sheik would kill me if he knew I had
accepted a gift;” and all my arguments
failed to persuade him to lake ibe
“tip.”

A Cougher’s Coffers
may not be so full as he wishes, but if ho is
wise he will neglect hi3 coffers awhile and
attend to his cough. A man’s coffers may be
bo secure that no one can take them away
from him. But a little cough has taken many
a man away from his coffers. The “slight
cough" is somewhat like the small pebble that
lies on the mountain side, and appears utterly
insignificant. A fluttering bird, perhaps, starts
the pebble rolling, and the rolling pebble begets
an avalanche that buries a town. Many fatal
diseases begin with a slight cough. But any
cough, taken in time, can be cured by the use of
Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral.
