WASHINGTON, Jnn. 19. (Special Tele
cram.) For six hours today the senato
commltlco on Imllan affaire labored with a
vlow of completing the Indian appropriation
bill, and at fi:30 p. m. a motion prevailed
that tho hill ho reported with certain
nraondmcnts. Test votes had been made
during the nfternoon upon tho question of
retaining tho mineral feature which tho
iiubcommlttco hnd agreed upon, to permit
prospectors and miners to cntci Indian
reservations and to mine therein for gold,
diver, copper. lead, zinc and coal, under '
rules laid down by tho secretary of the In- J
terlor, tho companies to pay for damages
accruing to properties so mined. In all rases
tho mineral rights to remain In tho United
States. This Is one of tho great questions J
that will ho debated on tho tloor ol tnc
ncnate, and should tho democrats, as now
Bccmn likely. Insist upon using tho appro
priation bills as a full for tho ship subsidy
1)111 they will have largo grounds upon
which to attack tho measure by lighting
several Items upon tho appropriation bills
as thoy aro reported.
In addition to tho mineral feature of tho
IjIII, which Is considered one of most
vital Importnnco to many Interests, Is the
cntrnnco wedgo which the committee by a
test voto decided to report to tho senate, an
appropriation of J100.000 for an examination
and report upon the Olla dam nt tho San
Carlos Indian reservation, Arizona. New
Knglanl, n portion of tho south and prob
ably tho mlddlo east, may bo expected to
opposo this measure, whllo tho west, south
nnd north will probably lino up in Its favor,
nnd tho light will bo Interesting, In view of
Secretary Hitchcock's report, Just promul
gated, favoring n coniprchenslvo system t
Irrigation.
Somo members of tho senato commlttco
on Indian affairs in considering tho Olla
dam question laid stress upon the disposi
tion on tho part of some parties to effect
tho carrying out of a largo Irrigation plan
by playing upon tho sympathies of the peo
plo for tho Indians. It was allowed that
the Indians could bo moved off tho reser
vation for less money than It would cost to
carry out tho proposed Irrigation plan, but
that t hero wan no place to which they could
lio moved; that Irrigation of a largo area
of land which was made possible by steer
ing tho Hood waters of tho river would
inako valuabio much,lund now worthless
nnd enablo hundreds of families to mako
livings thereon. Tho eommltteo expressed
n dcslro to carry out tho work contem
plated, but seemed especially concerned in
having It begun iu tho right way. It was
recognized In tho general talk nround tho
table that tho benefits accruing would not
slmHv affect the Indians In this immcdlato
vlilty, but that vast areas of land nt a
lo far removod therefrom, which
In certnln seasons of tho year severely suf
fer from Hoods in Arizona, would bo saved
from disastrous results nnd sudden lnunda
tlons, becauso tho ntorngo of theso waters
for Irrigation purposes would prevent such
tiouuloj. It was frankly admitted that
whllo tho Indians on tho San Carlos rescr-
vntlon would bo primarily benefited It would
bo a far grentor thing to benefit tho vast
nroas of wastn now arid through this means
than to allow them to remain as now, bar
ren and uncultivated.
Mcut to Court of Claim.
Senator Pottlgrow occupied tho tlmo of
tho commlttco lit consldorublo length In In
sisting upon nn amendment sending tho
Slssoton and Wnhpoton matter to tho court
of claims, which was finally agrocd upon,
nftcr n comprnmlso amendment had beon
offered by Senator Thurston. Senator I'ct
tlgrow stated that ho had labored ten years
to brlug about this legislation and ho be
llovcd It wns nbsolutoly right and just that
tho court should dccldo upon certain find
ings of fact which aro stipulated in tho
ntnondmcut offered by tho chairman. Sen
ator Qunrles of Wisconsin, on tho other
hand, strongly opposed tho nmondtnent go
ing on tho Indian bill, but wns outvoted
sn the final proposition.
Tho commlttco nlso ngrced to report an
imondmcnt to the bill appropriating 15,000
lor tho repair of bridges and approaches
to tho samo on the Omaha nnd Wlnnobngo
reservation In Thurston county, Nebraska.
Tho commlttcu having go no thus far In
tho matter of now legislation, decided to
go still further, nnd sought n quarrel with
tho civil servlco commission by taking out
of that body tho farmers at nil agencies
nnd by n direct voto decided that horo
nftor tho farmers Hhould pass the examina
tions prescribed by tho secretary of the
interior nnd should bo residents of tho
states and territories of the reservation
to which thoy would bo assigned.

A resolution offered by Kylo of South

Fact
W7
that In addressing Mrs. Plnkham
you aro confiding your private Ills
to a woman a woman whose expe
rience In treating woman's diseases
Is greater than that of any living per
son, male or female.
You can tnlk freely to a woman when it ib revolting to
relnto your privulo troubles to u man ; besides, a man (iocs
not understand, shnplv becauso he is a man.
Every ono will p;reo that thero aro tho stroncest of nil
rennons wiry, if wo arts ill, wo should anneal to tho porson
who knows tho most about tho kind of illness with which
wo aro nfllictetl ono who has had tho greatest oxperienco
in treating jurat such cases and mooting just tho symptoms
that aro manifest in our particular caso.
"What confidenco does ono gain by consulting ono who
has occasionally met a caso just Hko ours, but has had no
great oxperienco ? Nono whatever. All treatment under
such a person must of necessity bo experimental. As a
matter of fact, in tho treatment of female ills Mrs. Pinkhnm
has had moro experienco than any ono person in tho world.
For a jieriod of over twenty-fivo years wotnon havo been
onstantlv in correspondence ana consultation with her: and it is
safo to say thero is not a caso or complication of femalo doranKoments
( with which sho is not familiar, and it is a positive fact, easily vorifiod, that
within tho last fow months sho, with her corps of trained women assistants, havo
treated over ono hundred thousand cases, anil that moro than a million women
of this country owo tho restoration of their hoalth to hor advice and Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vetrotnblo Compound.
Now, if a woman is ill and miserable it seems to us only simplo justice to hersolf that
sho should avail hersolf of tho help of a woman of such enormous experience.
MRS. PINKHAJVVS STANDING INVITATION.
Women suffering from nny form of fomal6 weakness aro invited to promptly communi
cato with Mrs. Pinkhnm, at Lynn, Mass. Sho asks nothing in return, except their good will,
and hor advico has relieved thousands. Surely nny woman, rich or poor; is very foolish if
eho does not take advantngo of this generous offer of assistance.
If you aro influenced by tho advertising of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegotablo Compound,
and tho testimonials published in favor of it, and go to a storo to buy it, do not allow a clerk in
a drug storo to induce you to buy something nbout which you know nothing only what ho
tells you. His reason for wishing you to buy tho medicine is becauso ho can make moro money
on it. Ho does not caro a fig about your getting well, only to mako his sale. Remember that
Lydia Em Pmkfoam' Ysgetaiste Compound
has absolutely cured moro cases of female Ills than
any other one medicine In tho world.

Saved a Life
The HOLLYWOOD,
Aibury Park, N. J., Ftb. 3, 1900.
I read your advertisement in regard to Wine of Cardul In the Baltimore American, and it so favorably lm.
pressed me that on my visit to Baltimore during the holidays, I purchased a bottle of It for my adopted daughter,
who was suffering with female troubles. She liad been under the doctor's treatment for some time, and when her
periods would come on, her sufferings were something terrible. I induced her to try it and the first close brought
on her menses. She took it regulerly according to the directions, and was greatly relieved. To use her own
words " It has saved my life ". ' J. WESLEY CROSS,
Mr. Cross' daughter realized what Wine of Cardui had done for her when she said " It has saved
my life". Menstrual irregularities never continue long without Involving falling of the womb, leucjr.
rhcea, or some other dangerous malady which endangers life and happiness.
WIMEoCARBUI
Is an emmcnagoguc which lays the foundation for a woman's health by regulating the menstrual flow,
lis beneficial result is felt almost immediately as the sharp, shooting, dragging and bearing-down pains
disappear directly. Then the organs are strengthened and a final cure is the result. Do you not
want such a rtirrat that? Nine out of every ten arc struggling through life with some burden
brought about hy female troubles. You may be one of them. Throw the burden off! Many women
besides Miss Cross have taken Wine of Cardul for relief and are well and happy to-dav fust as she Is.
Try Wine of Cardul. All druggists sell $1.00 bottles. Do not accept a substitute.
