NEXT THIRTY DAYS AT VERY BOTTOM PRICES KNOW WHAT MEANS UNTIL POPULISTS WILL SUBMIT They Will Obey The Decision of the Courts. DOUGLASS IS RECOGNIZED. Kansas Legislature Will .Hereafter Have But One House-The In deDendents Takel Seats In the Legal House' Tope K A, Kan., Feb. 27 Tomorrow Kansas will have but one house of representatives. The populists after caucusing all day on the de cision of the supreme court that the republican house was the legal house decided to take the step. They will, however, demand that the .house pass an 'appropriation bill for the payment of the salaries and per diem of the officers and members of the populist house up to date. The populists decided also that no bills should be passed excepting those necessary to keep in motion the machinery of the state and (that an adjournment is to be reached as soon as possible. The senate empowered their dec- iton committee to inquire into the election of Chief Justice Horton ot the supreme court. The populists say they believe Mr. Horton was illegally declared to be elected in 1890 over the populist candidate. MISER'S HIOOKX TKEASUKK. Holly, Mich., Feb. 28. About $20,. 000 in cash belonging to the Fagin misers, the two brothers who were found frozen to death in their house five miles north of here Saturday, has been unearthed up to today. Last night $15,000 had been recovered, and this morning a pot containing $5,000 in gold was dug up in the celler. It is not known to which brother belonged. Another mystery was cleared up today by the finding of a certificate ofdesposit for $7,500. It was the money received in the sale of John's farm. The property belonging to the Fagins already recovered and accounted for amounts to $:t7,OX). The old shanty where the brothers lived is being torn down piece by piece in the search for their hidden wealth. MANIAC IN THE I'ULl'IT. West Union, la., Feb. 27. Kev. K. Sanlord of the Methodist church at Sumjicr, was seized with temporary insanty while occupying the pulpit Sunday, and for a time pendeinoni um reigned. For five minutes he was a raving maniac. He raved, swore, threatened violence, smash ed the bible over the pulpit, jumped on it, cursing and calling down the wrath of God all the while. The audience was simply para ly.ed, the people rinted to their Mcntcs. A town official happened to come in just at this time, went foreward and took hold of Mr. San ford, spoke a few words to him and reason returned. He was taken home, but in a critical condition physically and mentally. INAICI KAL AliDKLSS. New Yokk, Feb. 27 St. Clair Mc Klway, editor of the Hrooklyn Kagle who has been several days at Lakewood, and during that Jtime had a conference with President elect Cleveland, writes his paper as follows: "Cleveland's inaugural address as president of the United States will contain 1,700 words and will be more general than specific in its character. Cleveland has carefully written out what he de sires to say but will speak at the in- nigural without manuscript." TOO VIVID A PICT LRU. Fokt Doncii, la., Feb. 2'V Mrs. William Wilbur of Kowan has been adjudged insane and sent to the asylum. The immediate cause of her losing her mind was a graphic picture of hell drawn in the pulpit of her pastor. The preacher's dis cription of the torments of the dam ned made such a vivid impression upon Mrs. Wilbur's mind that her reason was overthrown and it is feared that she is hopelessly insane. WALSH TCk'NS DEMOC'KAT. New Yokk, Feb. 27 A special from Grand Forks, N. D., says that George Walsh speaker of the house of representatives, has renounced the republican party and gone over to the democrats. He declares the senatorial contest at Hismarck ought to end the existence of a re publican party in the state. HO.SStHLl'HKKIl'S STKIKE. Chihuahua, Mexico, Feb. 23. There is great excitement throgh out the Mate ofChihuahna over a silver and gold strike reported from the mining distrist of Hato pilas. Thestrike was made on oneof thr properties of Alexander K. Shep herd, na "Hoss" Washington. 1). C. Oneof the veins of silver rims $2,7lX) to the ton, while another is gold of the richest nature.

Whekeah, public interests require that the senate should be convened at 12 o'clock on the fourth day of March, to receive the communica tions as may be made by the ex ecutive. Therefore, I, Henjamiu Harrison, president of the United States, do herby proclaim and declare that an extraordinary occasion requires the senate of the United States to convene at the capital at Washing ton on the fourth day of March uext at 12 o'clock at noon, of which all persons who shall at that time be entitled to act as members of that body are required to take no tice. Given under my hand and the seal of the United States at Wash ington this twenty-fifth day of February, in the year of our Lord, one thousand, eight hundred and ninety-three, and of the indepen dence of the United States of America the one hundred and sev- enteenth Hbnjaman Hakkison, Hy the president. Willinm F. Wharton. Acting Secretary of State. This is the usual course pursued at the outgoing of each administra tion to enable the senate to "advise and consent" to the cabinet selec tions by the incoming president. It is also customary at the same session to send in the names of those selected for the most impor tant foreign posts and the leading officers at home. Cleveland's proclamation, issued under similar conditions four years ago, was dated February 20, and the proclamation of today follows that document closely. There was some talk today, in connection with the issuing of the proclamation, about the question whether or not a president had ever convened con gress as a whole in special session by proclamation issued just pre vions to his retirement from office An examination of the records shows that this was never done 1 lie earnest date at wnicu a new congress ever assembled after an inauguration oi a president was May 15, 1707, when President Jef ferson called the two houses to gether to consider the suspension of diplomatic relations with France, In Hll President William Henry Harrison convened congress in special session on May 31, by proclamation issued March 17, but before the assembling of the body lie died mid Mr. Tyler was in the chair. The occasion for this special session was condition of finance ami revenue which demanded attention. It may be of iuteacut in, connection with the discussion of the probabilities of a special ses sion, to state that since 1X41 the congress has been called in special session but four times.

THE SU6ARBEETS BEAT To Provide for the Encourago mentof Raising Beets. PERFORMS ROUTINE WORK Chaplain Hall Informs the House That Representative Ruggles Is Improving? Other Bills Considered The following bills Came Up on the reports of committees: House roll, No. 315, by Oakley to provide for the establishment and management of private hospitals, asylums or institutions for the treatment and the custoday of the insane, feeble-min Jed or inebria tes, was recommended to pass which report was adopted. House roll No. 1(55, by McKesson to provide for the encouragement of the sugar beet industry and the paying of a bounty to the growers and producers of sugar beets, was recommended to pass by the com mittee. helton insisted that it was not a proper bill, as soon as he could get the lloor. and said several unim. portaut things. He was followed by Soderman with about the same kind of a speech. Kldcr wanted to see the bill go on general tile and made an eloquent appeal for the bill that evidently caused the scales to fall from the eyes of some of his radical breath- ran. Nason, who is one of the most un tiring workers for Nebraska, dwelt at some length upon the fairness of the bill and concluded by saying that Nebraska could be made the great sugar producing center of the world if the people would only stand up for Nebraska and foster her interests and industries. iiorst came in in Ins usual way and moved that the bill be indefini tely postponed. Then he rose to a point of order claiming that the resolution passed on the 20th of January while the republicans were absent and it still remains mystery as to wnetner a quorum was present or not, barred any further action upon the bill but the speaker righteously sat down on mm. THE AMENDED CHARTER. Dobson s bill, house roll No. 343, is the bill that contains the charter proposed by the labor unions.
