founded on phenomena, and that nil
phenomena is produced by nature and
is governed by natural laws, and that
all spiritual gifts, including that ol
the power to heal, comes under u
control of natural law. Stephens says

spirit land, and they have advised the
establishment of this church, ft is
expected that a church building will

DOINGS IN CONGRESS.

Ar DMpotsd of.
Tho sundry civil bill was under consid
eration In tho acnato on the 2Cth. It
passed after a number of amendments
had been added to It. Tho senate went
Into executive Bcsslon at 1:40 p. m. and
devoted tho remainder of tho day to tho
Panama canal treaty. At 5:43 o'clock tho
doors were rwpencd. Senator Hoar
(Mass.) prcHentcd tho conferenco report
on tho bill to protect tho president and
It went over and the senate then at 5:K
p. m. adjourned. ...Amid scenes which re
called tho mcmorablo and exciting days
of the Fifty-first congress, when party
feeling ran fiercely and the hall of rep
resentatives resounded with denuncia
tions of tho alleged "high handed meth
ods of the majority," James J. Dutler
(Mo.) was unseated by tho houso and
Qcorgo C. H. Vugoncr was seated In
his place. Tho democrats had decided
at a caucus that If this caso was called
up they would prosecute a filibuster from
now until March 4, and they began tho
fight as Boon as tho gavel fell at noon.
Iloll call followed roll call and it took
over three hours to approve tho Journal
of Wednesday's proceedings. The clos
ing chapter was dramatic. Mr. ,Dalzell
(Pa.), who was In the chair, refused to
recognize a demand for division, nnd Mr.
Richardson (Tcnn.), tho minority leader,
stood in his place and denounced his
con tho In unmeasured terms amid tho
Jeers of the republican side.
Tho senate on the 27th passed tho naval
and tho military academy appropriation
bills. Senator lltnckbiirn (Ky.) secured
a vote on bis motion to tako up the Llt
tlefleld anti-trust bill, but his motion was
lost, 2S to M. Tho senate from 1:15 p. m.
to C:15 p. m. was In executive session.
When tho doors were opened a number of
bills wero passed without objection. The
Immigration bill was considered and a
number of amendments made to meet
various senators' views, but tho bill
failed of ii vote on objection from Now
Kngland senators, who feared It would
excludo French Canadian labor.... The
democrats of the houso carried out their
threat that If Mr. Hutler (Mo.) was un
seated they would do everything la their
power to block legislation from now until
congress expires, March 4. Tho result
was a stormy session, prolonged from 11
o'clock In tho morning until seven o'clock
In tho evening. Itoll call succeeded roll
call and at every pnuso party passion
manifested Itself In bitter and acrimoni
ous denunciation. Kvcn with tho special
rules In operation getting appropriation
bills Into conference was a tedious and
laborious process and an eight-hour ses
sion and 13 roll calls were necessary to
get tho agricultural, sundry civil military
academy and post ofllcc appropriation
bills into conference and to adopt tho con
ference report on tho Indian appropria
tion bill.
Tho senate on the 2Sth passed tho forti
fications appropriation bill and tho house
Immigration bill. The general deficiency
bill, tho last of the appropriation meas
ures to bo considered, was reported from
tho committee. Tho Aldrich bond de
posit bill was debated at length, but o
vote wns not reached. While In executive
session on tho Panama canal treaty Sen
ator Cullom (111.) nccuaed Senator Mor
gan (Aln.) of talking against time to de
lay tho treaty, when tho latter retorted
that what bo said was "as false as If It
had como from tho mouth of an Imp In
hell." It was- said that Senator Cullon:
restrained himself. An adjournment was
then taken till the next day The dem
ocrats In the house stuck to their filibus
tering tactics and the majority progresi
with appropriation bills and conferenoe
reports was exceedingly slow, the dem
ocrats forcing a roll call on every propo
sition. Tho omnibus public building bill
was passed and several conference re
ports wero adopted. Tlfo houso then ad
journed until tho next day.
Tho senato spent threo hours on the 1st
In culoglcH of four deceased members ol
the house, namely: Peter J. Otey (Vn.),
James Moody (N. C). John N. W. Hum
plo (la.) and Thomas II. Tongue (Ore.).
At the conclusion of the addresses reso
lutions of regret were adopted and as n
further murk of respect the senate ad
journed. ...Tho houso of representatives
hold a four-hours" session and put the
District of Columbia appropriation bill
through Its last parliamentary stage In
I he face of tho democratic filibuster.
Tho previous question on the confercrtce
report on the Alaskan homestead bill was
ordered and tho vote on Its adoption will
bo taken wAun tho houso reconvenes.
Tho democrats put a block In tho legls-
latlva wheel at every opportunity nnd it
required six roll calls to accomplish what
was done.
Tho senato on tho 2d passed tho general
deficiency bill after four hours' consid
eration. An amendment by Senator Raw
lins (Utah) calling for an appropriation
of $50,000,000 to further tho work of Irri
gating the arid lands, furnished material
for consldernblo discussion. It was re
jected on a point of order. Tho Aldrich
financial bill was then taken up, Senntor
Teller (Col.) continuing his remarks be
gun on the 2Sth. Tho conferenco report
on tho fortifications appropriation bill, the
agricultural bill and the Alaskan home
stead bill wero agreed to. Tho Immigra
tion and omnibus public building bills
wero sent to conference. At tho night
session Senator Mason (III.) presented
tho conference report on tho post otllce
appropriation bill and It was agreed to.
....From 11 o'clock In tho morning until
late at night tho bouse struggled labori
ously against tho democratic filibuster.
Despite another special rulo adopted early
In the day legislation proceeded at a
snail's pne'o and roll call followed roll
call on every proposition. Tho confer
enco reports on tho Alaskan homestead
bill, the post ofllco appropriation bill, the
agricultural appropriation bill and the
immigration bill wero adopted: tho omul
bus public building bill and tho general
deficiency appropriation bill wero sent to
conference.
