CONGRESSIONAL' PROCEEDINGS Inellnn Compulsory Education BUI Paonod By the Sonnto. SYNOPSIS OF THE MEASURE. Senator Vest of Missouri , DUcussos the l > oiendcnt I'cnsloti Bill at CJrent Length Proceedings In tlio House. Sonnto. WASHINGTON' , Feb. 29. In tho' senate on motion of Mr , Spooncr , the house amend ments to bills for public buildings in Mil waukee anil Oinnhn were non concurred In , nnd a committee of conference was asked , Messrs. Spooncr , Quay and West being ap pointed ns sen ate con forces. The bill to establish n national art commis sion was taken from the calendar and passed. The bill to provide for compulsory educa tion of Indian children was taken from the calendar and discussed. Mr. Dawcs ( who had charge of the bill ) approved the substi tute for the bill offerud by Mr. Vest when the bill Wus last under consideration , nnd It was nmcndcel and passed. It makes it the duty of the secretary of the interior to establish nn Industrial boarding schoolon every Indian reservation upon which there may bo located nny Tndlun , tribe numbering GOO or mono udult Indians. Pupils are to bo taught In the branches of useful labor in addition to the usual studies in primary schools. Nothing in the bill is to prevent the education of In dian children in schools outside the reserva tions with the consent of their parents or Kuardians and no provisions of the act are to apply to the five civilized , tribes nor to the Osage Indians of the Indian Territory. The senate then resumed consideration ol the bill granting pensions to ox-soldiers and Bailers incapacitated for the ] > crfornianco ol manual labor nnd providing for pensions tc dependant relatives of deceased soldiers and Bailors. Mr. Wilson , of Iowa , moved an amendment to Insert the words "from inllrm- itics of ago , " so as to pension all cx-soldlcre suffering from infirmities of age , or from mental or physical disability. In the debate which took place Mr. Plumb delivered an eloquent eulogy on the urmy. Mr. Vest said they heard a good deal aboul alms houses and veteran soldiers. In the state of Missouri there were no fedora goliUcrs in alms houses , nnd ho was proud tc Bay thcro were no confederates either. The outh to-day was covered with maimed nuO crippled soldiers who had been shot and shelled for their honc t convictions , anil they asked Bt > pension and would not take it , God bo blessed. Thev were not in alim houses , and none of them had over been sect begging for bread. Whence , then , came the talk of federal soldiers in alms houses ) The ; Were not there. Ho was tired and sick o : Insinuations , of robbery , and pretcnso one hypocrisy lu the name of the true and gallant noldlcrsof the union. Ho would clvoevery dls abled or do ) > endent soldier of the the fcdcrn' army , nnd the widows and orphans of thost Who have lost their lives in the service , the last aero of land and the last dollar. He would have done the same for the confcdcr sto soldiers , "if God had blessed our cause. ' Why this talk that congress had not done enough for the soldiers , when this country had paid out $383,000,000 for pensions , a lib cralfty unparallelled in tbo history of the world. The great military nnd politlca organization , the Grand Army of the Itcpub lie , had thrown its lanca into the debates o : congress and sent bills to their accredited Bcnutors for the purpose of being enacted When the president of the United States hai honestly and bravely discharged his oxccu tivo duty and vetoed an enactment which he considered lmproi > er , ho had been threatened by the officers of thnt organization with per Bonal insult if ho dared make hi : presence known in the city where i held its annual meeting. Thcro was a Ural to human endurance. Ho ( Vest ) had votoe lor pension bills , coerced by his jxwition because ho bad been a confederate , and be cause ho wan honestly anxious for the honoi And glory of the country. .Ho had voted foi tltom because ho wonted to evidence to thi world that the men with whom ho had nctee in the unfortunate strife respected the sol dlorsof the union nnd were willing to givi them oven moro than they demanded. Bu there is a limit and I have reached it. . I wll bo driven no further by claim agents am plunderers in the garb of soldiers. For tin honest and real soldiers I am willing to vet any amount of pension. Vest went on to su ; that of the 3,000,000 men enrolled as soldier during the four years of war. then were applications from 1,200,000 fo pensions on account of disability Buch military execution had never beci known in the history of the world. Ho be liovcd thcro were honest applications , but hi Relieved these pension bills had now degcncr otcd into a political abuse , wliich cried aloui for redress. Ho had great regard for man ; of bis friends on the opposite side of tli chamber , and in the words which ho hni spoken ho had wished to give an opportUnlt ; to some of them who had barked back in th contest on the bill to throw his shining lane funong Uio "confederate brigadiers" and tr ; to carry oft the republican nomination fo president. A recent dispatch from Paris hai 'caused political candidates to become n thick as leaves on Vallumbrosa. " The door of the republican party were now open , nni presidential candidates were coming to th front without limit as to quantity or quality The senate had been engaged for days pas In a political auction for the soldier's vote First came Ills friend from Nebraska ( Mar dersou ) backed by the G. A , H. , and h ( Vest ) had listened with real gratlflcutioi Even that senator's flings at the president o the United States had not detracted from th general merit of his bid for the soldier voU find when ho received a floral tribute as token of regard from his admiring constiti cnts , ho ( Vest ) had but ono single suggostio : to make , and that was that llllios should b embroidered over the portals of the whit bouso. When the senator from Ncbrask took his scat ho ( Vest ) hod thought the bi was in'his favor. But the senator froi Maine ( Fryo-had ) "caught the eye of uue tloneor G. A. U. and had gone him on better. " That senator was prepared to vet h pension to every man who had served n da In the federal army. Ho ( Vest ) was nbov to knock down the prize to the senator froi Maine , when his friend fro in Kansas ( Ptuuil came to the front and outbid Fry by u tunendmout which would increase the 01 jxjndlturo $50,000,000 or $70,000,000. II ( Vest ) then had been strongly of the oplnio the prize should bo given to tlto senator froi Kansas ; but then the senator from Illinoii ( Cullom ) had como to the front and made bid which had staggered his convictions as t the propriety of closing the sale. Since tin time ho had been in u condition of nnxlct \Valtlug to hear from other bidders in tli great national auction. The senate had m yet lieaul.from his uulcot-tonpued frien from Iowa ( Allison ) , nor had the sennt heard from the distinguished senator froi Ohio ) , who in such it contest ought co ; tuinly to como to the front nnd bid semi thing for the vote which candidates thong ! Was to determine the contest. Neither ha the senate vet heard from the presidin bftlcor ( Ingnlls ) , who had been nominated b the District of Columbia. Every ono knc' that the District of Columbia only ncte from the moat disinterested nnd unscltis motives. Ho ( Vest ) would rather have nomination from the District of Columbl than from any stuto in the union twcnue every ono know It came from the heart an Dot from the pocket. No man , woman c child in the District had nny other obe ] < than the promotion of the national honor au prosperity. And so when ho read in n dcmi crutio paper last Sunday that the presidin oftleer of the senate was the nominee of tl District , ho said : Eureka I Wo have foun the man at last and the question is finall settled. In conclusion Vest said : "Partis.ii or non-partisan , my connections require n to vote against the bill ; and I say hero no that I hope thnt it will "dlo the death" in tl oilier branch of the national congress , and not there , at Uio haiids of the executive , that bo unparliamentary , make the most of 1 Mr. Felton replied to Vest that there wt Bomo little diversity of opinion as to wli \vus to bo their standard-bearer , his delm cratlo friends were not in that positlo Tlio republicans were not disturbed hv coi tllctlncr opinions and interests , even if the bad a largo number of prominent men wh Would make good , presidents , but tUo dom , tratiq party was compelled ( o admit it hi but ono man who was a suitable nnd availa ble candidate. > Mr. Plait hero read an extract from Cleve land's letter of ncqcptnncc , against the policy of n second term , nnd Intimated It must be n mistake ; to consider Cleveland a candidate , for nomination1 , Mr. Teller repeated notwithstanding thnt the great democratic party had to-duy no other man whom it would dare to put in nomination. Ho replied to Some of Vest's statements regarding pensions nnd It came with bad grace for tlio senator to attempt to caslliptto the republican slda of the chamber for its votes on this or nny other pension bill. Mr. Plumb iilso replied to Vest. The sena tor from Missouri had nothing but words of contempt and ridicule for the soldiers of the union , Tlio senator was welcome to the po sition he hod assumed. Ho had enlarged the scope of debate , not for tlio special purpo o of ridiculing senators supposed to be presi dential candidates , but for the purpose of arguing against the whole Idea of pensions to union soldiers , whether disabled or other wise. After further debate the senate adjourned without action. House. WAIIIINOTOX , Feb. 20. Mr. Kelly of Pcnn- ij-lvanla , rising to n question of personal privilege , sent to the clerk's desk nnd hud read a dispatch from Washington to a Boston ) iiper , in which ho is given as authority for .ho statement that it would bo policy for the republicans of the house to obstruct the pass age of nny tariff measure before the meeting of thp national convention at St. Louis. He said ho had not indicated such a policy nnd mil mndo no statement from which n fntr- inindcd , honorable man could dcduco such n conclusion. The committee on public lands reported a bill to Rccuro to actual settlers public lands adapted to agricultural purposes , nnd to pro tect forests on the public domain. Printed nnd recommitted. Tins house then went into committee of the whole on the bill authorizing the secretary of tlio treasury to purchase bonds with tlio sur plus revenue. Mr. Mills said as It was a doubtful question whether tile secretary could -two the largo sum of money in the treasury in the purchase nnd redemption of bonds , that officer pre ferred to remit the question to the lawmaking - making power. Mr. McKinley of Ohio , said the exact pur pose of the bill was not altogether manifest upon its face. If it proposed to give the sec retary of the treasury authority to use the surplus for the purchnso and redemption of government bonds , that authority already existed full and ample , and had existed since March , 1831. The integrity of this law had never been questioned until it was questioned or the president of the Unltcet States. Mr. McKinley then entered upon a long criticism of the policy of the administration in regard to tills and other matters. The administra tion , instead of paying out the surplus in an honest nnd logical way upon the debt , pre ferred to use tlio banks ns a means of putting money in circulation , and fully $ .7.1,000,000 that ought to bo in the treasury to day , was out among the banks without drawing interest. The presi dent and his administration is solely respon sible for whatever congested condition was found in tlio treasury and finances of the gov ernment. Ho wondereet if there was not Rome ulterior motive in piling up this sur plus. Ho wondercel if it was not for the pur pose of creating a condition of things which would get up a scare to break down the pro tection system of the country. Ho wondered if that was not just what was in the mind of the president. If so , ho hr.d probably dis covered his blunder and now came hero through his secretary of the treasury and asked congress to pass this bill. Mr. Weaver of Iowa spoke at some lengthen on the question of surplus money in national banks. The country , ho said , was in the hands of a gigantic , cold-blooded money trust. It was a public scandal , nnd congress was sitting hero and not a voice raised against it. Granted that this money had been placed in the banks to avoid any financial stringency. If this bill should have the effect to recall that money it would bring n far greater strin gency , and he warned ' the business men that they better prepare to'stand from under. In proper time ho would offer a substitute authorizing the secretary to apply the sur plus money to the redemption of bonds at par. Further debate of a political nature , into which tariff questions entered largely , was Indulged in by Hoed of Maine. Mr. Breckcnridgo said a tariff bill would soon bo presented which would moot the re quirements and unite the factious of the democratic party. General debate having closed Mr. Mc- Crcary of Kentucky offered the following amendment , which was accepted : Provided ] that the bonds so purchased or redeemed shall constitute no part of the sinking fund , but shall be cancelled by the secretary of the treasury , The committee then rose nnd the bill passed. Eulogies were delivered on the late Repre sentative Moffat , and the house adjourned. DDEA1) IN HIS MOTnEIt'S ARMS. A Pathetic Scene at the Union Pacific Depot Ycsterelny. Persons waiting at the Union Pacific depot yesterday morning witnessed a pathetic sight that touched the hearts and appealed to the sympathiesof _ oven the most hardened. Irene ono of the seats in the ladies' waiting room sat u pale-faced woman of scarcely thirtj years , whoso pinched and careworn feature : told even moro plainly than lici thin garments the story of a sad nnd hopeless struggle with twverti nnd caro. By her sldo sat two little chil dren , whoso pretty but sober faces scemcel u reflex of the mother's. The third child she held in her arms dead. No spoken word told of her sorrow , but the scalding tears and heaving breast feebly expressed the depths of her anguish. Her uumo was Mrs. Eliza Uobblns and this terrible bereavement was but ono of many sorrows. Her husband lives at Kansas City , but her memories ol him are only coupled with neglect nnd abuse , nnd after yours of mistreatment she wrote to her mother in Neligh , Neb. , asking if she could again find u refuge In the home other childhood. A warm nnd hearty re sponse was received , and on Tuesday Mrs. Uobhins started for Neligh. She arrived in Omaha yesterday morning at ( S o'clock , but her boy , who wus sick with typhoid fever , meanwhile grow worse , and in four hours after she had arrived in Omaha ho was o corpse. The sorrow of the poor woman touched the hearts of hoc fellow travelers , and on questioning her trtev dis covered that she had but ? 8 with winch tc take herself , two children nnd the dead body to Neligh. A purse was immediately gotten up nnd in n few minutes $15 were contributed and given to nor. She most gratefully bu ) hesitatingly accepted. The body was taker to tlio undertaking shop of Mr. Uurket. A telegram was sent to her mother at Neligh which was promptly responded to with at order for $20.

UKE.I On one elny hi the week the house docs its work within congressional hours , the Wednesday sitting being from noon to 0. Now thnt all the old land marks nrc being swept away perhaps wo shall soon get rid of night sessions and every day will bo as Wednesday. After the cxpericnecs of this week uu change cau take anybody by surprise. > A few minutes after twelve the sneaker's procession wended Us way along the pass ages. Strangers were ordered , in stentorian voice , to take their hats off. The mace was laid uixrn the table and the chaplain went through his dally task of reading prayers. Ho is so used to it that every day his empha sis falls precisely on the same words. His inflection never changes ; his tone is purely mechanical. The preliminary exhortation Is delivered with the members facing each other but ns soon as prayers begin they turn around and stnro at the wall. Probably this is ono of the venerable forms upon which the British constitution mainly rests. To-day there wore very few present at this ceremony but the government was BOOH after represented by Smith and Goschcn. Next in the field was Lord Ilandolph , who has been the center of interest since Monday , in consequence of the masterly strategy ho displayed toward the government. Ho does not oppose only criticises but his criti cisms lirvc the ministerial credit damaged moro and more , and there is no ono capable of answering him. The usual official jug glery which silences a private member is lost upon Handolph. Ho has been behind the scenes and knows how the trick is done , therefore the ministers dread his appear ance , not less so because they know how- weak they are in donating power and how glad they would bo if mediocrity could always govern this country It has just conducted Sir Henry Holland to the house of lords , a man who never made an effective ayccch or soared above the dullest commonplace. Ho has been obsequious to his butters and now ho takes his place bcsido thorn m the lords. The torics worship med iocrity and hate originality or genius. They tried to slay Disraeli and strong cabls in this house and the Carlton club existed against him to the last. The _ new Lord Muntsford , without any ideas or opinions ex cept those borrowed ready-made from his chiefs , was much moro in their lino. Wo lost him only yesterday. Peace to his ashes. There are plenty moro of the same sort around. By their aid wo have been pegging away all the afternoon at further alterations in our rules , Dillon explained how they managed division in the house of representatives by reading from a congressional manual bor rowed from the library. Courtney , chair man of the committeoe , hoped wo should some day each have a desk to himself with two knobs at its side , ono registering aye and the other no. Upon a division being called the speaker would turn on the switch , each member would touch a knob and in an Instant all would bo over. This dream oi the future BO delighted the members that they went off to drink Courtney's health. II wo can only touch the knob to cut oft a few yards of long and foolish speeches our bllsa will bo complete. Then , after a suitable in terval of boot-licking.wo can bo tranforred to the upper hous.0 and bask in the smiles of Salisbury. Gladstone looked in upon ns after lunch , a brisk walk in the east wind having imparted a slight light tinge of color to his palld countenance H.O intorposad for a few moments to dlscour ago a revolutionary proposal which came from a conservative member. Gladstone can still point the way to true toryism when he is so disposed. Parnoll , who had been quietly looking on present rose to snub another now-fanglet scheme , and ono almost fancied the reel would full in when ho actually warned private members to put aside their fads and rcfrait from cmbarrasing the government. Whai noxtl What are wo all coming to ! Courtney noy declared that a fallacy ran through Par noil's ' speech , whereupon Lord Kandolpl started to his foot and plied the cudgel ! briskly In favor of Parnoll. The fallacy , lu declared was Courtney's nlono. . Parnell's in stinct had been as infallible as ever. The era of conciliation is almost complete Wo have had Gladstone praising Salisbury Smith patronizing Gladstone , Parnell coining to the rescue of Smith and Churchill defend ing Parnoll. There is nothing more to b < done unless William O'Brien ' will drink the loving cup with Balfour and Tim Healy wil oblige the house with "God Save the Queen. ' I will lot you know as soon as this happens Meanwhile we are all much affected by the brotherly love which prevails in all direction ! around us. A MEMIICII OP PAIILIAMBNT. TUB ATLANTA.

They have been trying to get rooms In Aiglets whllo the vessel is in the dock , but the town is so full of visitors that not a hotel could give the desired accommodation. "Wo nro a small party , " said the skipper , "and you might think wo have n dull time , especially as wo hnvo not brought Wall street with us , but in flno weather there are all the usual games on board , and everyone seems to enjoy the trip.- It certainly would bo a strnngo thing if ono could not manage to have n good ilino on board the floating palace of the New York millionaire.

Her success in this particular must be accepted ns proof of her talent and n guarantee of devotion to art. She has softened the harsh visugo , modified the costume nnd made the character less rcpcllant ; she has conformed it close to nature nnd given it an air of nature and jirobablltty allotted to it by no former actress. Her performance is superb In every scene , no routing , no "tearing n passion to tatters , " no seeming effect , nnd yet subtile to n degree that was thrilling , passionate nnd complete in effect. Miss Mnrston Leigh , as "Julia Manncriug , " and the sweet Catherine Lmyard , ns "Lucy Bertram , " sustained the roles with admirable credit , while H. A. Stuart , ns "Henry Bertram , " nnd Hurry Rich as "Domlnlo Sampson , " were all that could bo desired. An Ex-Sidewalk Contractor.
