Long before noon eyery seat and standing place in the galleries of the senate was filled, and the stairs and corridors were packed with people. After reuding of the journal. Edmunds reported that the committee which was appointed to wait on the pres ident of the United States and inform him of the meeting of the senate in exe cutive session, had performed that duty and had been informed by the president that he would, early today, communicate with the senate in writing Cockrell offered a resolution (which was laid oyer) for the appointment of a comiriltee of live senators on the methods of busi ness in the executive departments and causes of delay in the transaction of business. Stewart offered a resolution declaring it to be the sense of the senate that the business interests of the country require the purchase by the secretary of the treasury of $4,000,000 worth of silver bullion per month for coinage. Laid over. Blair presented the credentials of Mr. Marston, appointed by the governor of New Hampshire to fill the vacancy caused by termination of Chandler's term and the failure of the legislature to elect a a senator. The credentials were read and Marston took the oath. President Harrion sent to the senate the following nominations: Secretary of State James G. Blaine of Maine. Secretary of the treasury Wra. AVin- dom of Minnesota. Secretary of war Redfield Proctor of Vermont. Secretary of the navy Benjamin A. Tracey of New York. Secretary of the interior John . Noble of Missouri. Postmaster general--John Wanamaker of Pennsylvania. Attorney general W. II. U. Miller ot Indiana. " Secretary of agriculture Jeremiau Busk of Wisconsin, On motion of Hale the senate pro ceeded to consider with closed doors. Th aeiinta nromtjtlv comfiruied them all and adjourned at 12:45 p. m. Onoen Elizabeth's Po rtrait. In person Elizabeth was a littlo over ltklle height, and when sho came o the throne sho must have been a !eautiful young woman, with a pro fusion of auburn hair, a broad, com manding brow, and regular features that were capable of rapid changes of expression, as her hazel eyes flashed with anger or sparkled with merri ment. Her portraits appear to have been all more or less "idealized;" their number is so great that jt is to be wondered that no monograph lias yet been attempted dealing with them at all adequately. By far the most im pressive picture of her which has been engraved is 3iarlt uerara s portrait at Burleigh IIouso; it forms the frontis piece to the first volume of Wright's .blizabcth and Her limes. Ihe daughter of Henry VIII and Annie Boleyn could hardly have missed in heriting some of the personal beauty of her parents, but sho was emphati cally her father's child. From him she got her immense physical vigor, her magnificent constitution, tier powerful intellect, a frame which seemed incapable of fatigue, and a nervous system that rendered her al most insensible to fear or pain. Her life was the life of a man, not of a wo man ; sho could hunt all day, dance or watch masques and pageants all night, till the knees of strong men trembled under them as they v warily waited in attendance upon her person; yet she never seemed to suffer from the im mense tension at which sho lived. With her amazing energy, her want of all sympathy for weakness, her fierce wilfulness, and self assertion, and a certain coarseness of fiber, it was inevitable that she should be uu feminine.

On the soft blue billows of air to follow The summer, to soar and sing I To drink blue air and to feel it flowing Through every duinty plume. Uplifting, pillowing, bearing, blowing, And the earth below in bloom t "Is it far to heaven, O swallow, swallow ?" The heavy hearted sings; "For I watch your flight, and long to follow, The while I wait for wings." Anna Beynton AverilL Kate Castleton at Home. One would not think it probable, after witnessing pretty Kate- Castleton dance about the stage, kick up her heels and smile in euch a 6uucy way, that her pet hobby is to arise in the morning at her charming home, Castleton manor, near Oakland, Cal., cook the breakfast, and then tramp all over the place. But she dws. Alter breakfast she takes a peep in the stables to see that her horses are being properly fed and cared for, mean ders around to the hennery to feed the poultry, then to the garden to water the (lowers, and last, but not least, to the kennels, where she has the finest selec tion of dogs on the Pacific coast. In fact, there are very few kennels in the world that can equal it, every one of the dogs lieing a prize winner. She frequently spends hours in their company, ana it really seems as though they expected her visit3 as a part of their daily routine. Big Ned, the dog for whom sho would not take a fortune, once saved her life, Sho was taking her morn ing canter one summer two years ago, and was about to alight from the horse, when her dress caught in the saddle. Tho horse became frightened, gave a sudden start and dragged the fair actress along the ground. Big Ned jumped to tho rescue, seized the bridle rein and held the animal still until she was res cued from her perilous position. Nothing is too good for Ned. Miss Castleton is also a great lover of old bric-a-brac, and her summer liome is filled with rare and costly specimens. Chicago Herald. Tho Snakafe Charm. A gentleman from Iowa says that one day while going through his poultry yard he noticed a turkey hen with neck stretched to the utmost, eyes distended and wings 6lightly raised, gazing most intently upon some object on the ground three or four feet from where it stood. Watching it for some moments, he found that the turkey moved slowly around the attracting object in a circle without withdrawing its gaze for a moment. After it had made a full circle he ap proached to learn tho cause of its extra ordinary behavior and found that the at tracting object was a small striped snake partially concealed by some small weeds, and not tuitil he touched it did the turkey notice his presence, though ordinarily it would not permit him to approach within two or three yards, liven when driven away the turkey persisted in re turning and working around in a circle. Other fowls were then driven in the direction of the snake, and all on catch ing a glimpse of it were strangely af fected. Finally, satisfied that the con dition of the fowls on seeing the reptile was purely an objective one, the writer took a stiek and a pproached the snake to kill it. It was dead already ad most noteworthy point of all its head wr.t crushed out of all semblance to its orig inal shape and covered with dirt. The conclusion the writer reached was THE POPULAR -PRICE CLOTHIER lias left lor the East to buy the Finest, Largest and Cheapest Stock of Oft Spring end Summer Clothing E ver Brought to Cass county.

Fernando Jones yester day and, among other things, he asked rae if I had read the recent discussion about the headwaters of the Mississippi. "It revived an old story ta my mind," he said. "Henry R. Schoolcraft, a cele brated traveler and writer, in his account of it said the lake was called Itasca, after two Latin words signifying true head. I puzzled myself over this a good deal and asked him one day how ho made it. He replied: 'Quite . easily. Veritas means true and caput head. Striking off the first syllable of the first word and the last syllable pf the other ono you have Itasca--verTjtaa ca-put. It is equal," said ilr. Jones, "to Lorenzo Dow's cele brated text against tho fashion of high head dresses: 'Let him who is on the house top not come down. " Chicago j DR. SAGE'S CATARRH REMEDY. Symptoms of Catarrh.
