WASHINGTON, Jan. 26. Tho first bust- J
ncss In the senate today was the prcscnta-
tlon of the credentlols of Fred T. Dubois as ,
senator-elect of Idaho, and of Shelby M.
Culloin, us senator-elect from Illinois, tho
presentation being made In tho Dubois case
by Mr Heltfeldt, and In Mr. Cullom's cau
by Mr. Mason. The desk of tho Illinois
senator was covered with flowers nnd upon
his nppcuranco, tho first slnco his re-election,
ho was :ordlally greeted by his as
sociates on the floor.
Mr. Hoar of Mnsjnchufctts Introduced, nud
tho senato passed, a resolution asking for
nil Information nt the command of tho
president or any executive officer of the
government ns to the extent of lands In the
Philippine Islands used for ecclesiastical
purposes, th" character and value of such
lands nnd whether any official had on behalf
of the government entered Into nny obliga
tion ns to tho titles of such lands.
An elfort wns mado by Mr. Hawley to
obtain consideration of tho conferenco re
port upon tho army reorganization bill, but
tho report finally went over under objec
tion. Tho Indian appropriation bill was
then taken up.
The senntu hill ptovidlng o:i American
register for tho foreign-built barkmitlno
J. C. Pfluger of San Francisco was passed.
Mr. Hawley made an effort to Eccurn
consideration of the conference report on
the army reorganization bill, stating nt'
the same tlmo that tho bill could not bu
supplied to senators until clerical error
In the print received could bo corrected.
Objection was made and tho consideration
of the report was postponed until Monday.
Tho Indian appropriation bill was then i
taken up.
The amendment concerning townsltc np- I
pralsctncnt won considered, Mr. Pcttlgrew
renewing his opposition to tho townslto
commission. After some debate tho town
slto nmendment wns ngrccd to.
I'lKfit .Made on Irrigation 1 1 1 1 1 .
Mr. Platl of Connecticut opposed tho i
appropriation of $100,000 for Investigation '
and survey of proposed Irrigation dami
and canaln on tho Glln river In tho San
Carlos reservation, Arizona. Ho said ho
was opposed to tho plan, ns it wns ono ,
which would commit the government to a ,
new policy, which would bo ono of lm- ;
menso cost beforo It was carried out. Mr. i
Piatt explained that settlers nt tho head
of tho Olhi river had taken up water rights
at the- head of tho strain and thus cut
down the supply. The amendment, he nnld,
was framed In reality to commit tho gov
ernment to n policy of national Irrigation.
Mr. PIntt said that all tho Irrigation
needed for tho Indians could bo secured
for $100,000, but that tho Irrigation ntlvo-
catcu favored this scheme because It would
foist tho burden of Irrigation of tho arid
lands Inevitably upon tho government.
Mr. Stewart contended that tho amend
ment contemplated only tho completion of
tho surveys nlready under wny nnd that
nothing would follow but n submission of
tho corcplotn plan to congress.
Mr. Stownrt mndo n general argument
favoring Irrigation of tho nrld lands.
Mr. Qunrlos of Wisconsin discussed the
general Irrigation proposition, Indorsing it,
but deploring what ho called tho guerrilla
tactics, which attempted to secure, legisla
tion upon appropriation bills rather than
by bringing forward a bill contemplating
tho wholo schomo of wntcrlng tho nrld re
gions. Ho said that what he opposed was
tho method nnd not tho scheme. Ho snld
tho states and nation must net In harmony
to preserve water rights nnd that nctlnn
must bo taken quickly to socuro nil rights
for tho people
Thornton Di-iilc Indirection.
Mr. Thurston, chairman of tho Indian
committee, resented tho Imputation that
tho cnmmtttco wns moving by Indirection
or was endeavoring to socuro by unfnlr
means any advantngo to tho Irrigation nd
vocaten. Mr. Thurston went over the legnl phases
of tho storage of wutcr by such a dam as
Is proposed. Then taking up tho general
features, ho raid the blto for tho proposed
dam was tho most favorable that might bo
chosen for nn Irrigation experiment. Ufa
protested thnt thero was nlways opposition
when n small appropriation wnB asked for
tho west, while western men were ready to
voto for coast Improvements.
f'liuiKllcr Kciillen Cnu.,1 Icully.
Mr. Chandler caustically replied to stric
tures on Now England by Mr. Thurston
Ho rovitwed tho history of Irrigation leg'
Islatlou and said he favored a comprchen'
slve plan of Irrigation and hoped soma such
schomo would bo reported.
Mr. Thurston, referring to the cast, said
moss scorned to grow not only upon houses
but upon some of tho citizens. Against
this expression Mr. Plntt of Connecticut
put himself on record ns against any classl
llcatlon of tho cast as against tho west
or any other section. Ho had nlways, ho
said, endeavored to represent faithfully tho
entire country nnd ho was favorablo to
an Irrigation schemo when carefully pre
pared. Ho asserted that thero was a lobby
In tho Interest of Irrigation nnd declared
that tho feeling had been worked up with'
out any referonco to tho cost of tho work
Amendments wero ngreed to appropriating
$11,000 for light, heat nnd water supplies
at Klamath ngoney, Oregon; permitting tho
secretary of tho Interior to expend not
moro than $ino,000 for tho purchaso of
wuter rights for tho southern Utcs, np
proprlntlng $2.1,000 for tho purposo of in
vestlgntlng tho mineral character of lands
In Indian reservations nnd to withhold
from such reservation nil mineral lands
providing for nn Investigation as to whether
or not a personal tax may bo levied In the
Indian Territory to maintain a free school
system; permitting the salo of 20,000,00')
feet of timber from tho Jlcnrlllo Apacho
Indian reservation.
After n brief executlvo session the senate
nt 6:3.1 p. m. ndjotirned with tho Irrigation
amendment still pending.
HOUSE DECLTNEST0 AGREE
Turn Unit n rnntr' Ami ml in cut to
Appropriation Hill anil W'ntit
n Confi-ri'iioi.
WASHINGTON, Jnn. 2C The house todny
disagreed to tho senato amendments to the
legislative, executive and Judicial npproprla
tlon bill and agreed to the conference asked
for by tho senate. Messrs. Ulnghnm of
Pennsylvania, Hemcnwny of Indiana and
Livingston of Georgia wero appointed con
ferees on the part of the house.
Tho hotiso then proceeded with tho con
sideration of the bill to revise nnd rodlf
the postal laws, which was Interrupted by
the consideration of appropriation bills.
An amendment offered by Mr. Lnttlmer
of South Carollnn to provide that no star
route contract should be let to anyone not
n resident In tho county where tho route
wns located aroused a great ileal of opposi
tion from tho Immedlato friends of the bill
who argued thnt the Injection of such
nmendments Into n bill to codify the postal
laws would result In loading the measure
clown nnd make Its ultlmnte defeat certain
Tho amendment won supported by Mr. Tnto
nnd Mr Dnrtlctt, Mr. Stephens of Texas.
Mr. Talbert of South Carolina nnd others.
Tho nmendment was lost, 38 to 47.
Mr. Tnwney declined to bo convinced nnd
advisability nf placing upon the bill ns nn
nmendment his bill for tho reclassification
of the railway mall clerks.
Mr. Loud appealed to Mr. Tawney not to
offer the nmendment, on tbo ground that If
ndoptcd It would sound the death knell of
tho bill. If tho bill contained nny provision
which could not pass tho senate by unani
mous consent It must fall.
Mr. Tnwney declined to bo convlnvcd nnd
offered tho nmendment. It classified rail
way mall clerks Into ten classes, with sal
aries ranging from $S00 to $1,800 per an
num. After some further debate by Messrs.
Sherry of Connecticut and Fltzgernld of
Massachusetts In favor of tho adoption of
the amendment, nnd Mr. Hromwcll of Ohio
ngalnst It, tho nmendment wns lost, IS to
40. After completing 193 pages of tho bill
tho commltteo rose.
Tho remainder of the day was devoted
to eulogies upon the life nnd public seiv-
Ices of the Into Senator Gear of Iowa. Tho
speakers were Messrs. Hedge, Lucy and
Hull of Iowa, Grosvcnor nf Ohio, Hlchardson
of Tennessee, Steele of Indiana nnd Dnl

Marcus Mayer, lmprcssarto, manager,
promoter nnd general mngniUo of high
class operatic and dramatic enterprises,
was In Omaha yesterday arranging the de
tnlls for the coming appearance of Bern
hardt nnd Coquelln nt tho Iloyd. Mr.
Mayer has been hero beforo with com
panies nnd, according to his own confes
sion, has always done well In Omaha. Dur
ing the course of an extended conversation
ho snld:
"1 was here with Lnwrence Harrett nway
back In tbo '70s. Tho first attraction I
brought to Omnha wns Christine Nlllson
In 1SS2. Wo had Pattl here In 18S6, In
concert. In what was called tho Imposi
tion building; wo played to $11,000. Wo
brought Mnry Anderson hero beforo that
In l&SI, down nt tho old Hoyd opera
house. Tho last time I was here was
with Pattl and Tamognl, In 1SS9. nt
tho Coliseum; In thnt company wo oIbo
had Nordlca. who wns n very small fry
then. Tho principal people In tho com
pany were Pnttl. Tamagnl, Albnnl, Cash
man an baritone, nnd Antonio Galassl and
Navnrro. Thnt wns the first time they put
on opera here. Thero wero two big per
formances. Tho locnl association gnvc us
$10,000 for two performances, but I think
they mndo money out of It; 1 know they
did. In fact. We have always mnde money
In Omaha. That has been tho history of
big things In Omnha.
"Wo charged J2.S0 for Mary Anderson
and sho had a very small company, only
nbout thirty people; and for Pnttl wo
charged $3 In the big Coliseum. You know
It Is not tn our Interest to charge huh
prices; that Is not tbo Idcn. Tho Idcn Is
to charge high prices only when the thenter
Is fltnall."
Mill True to Pnttl.
"Of course there was a grcnt difference
In prices nt that time, for thero was only
ono Pnttl?"
"There Is only ono Pattl now, nnd thcro
was no ono who could compare with Pnttl
nt that time. The Held Is scattered today,
wo hove Melba nnd Nordlca. Hut thero Is
only ono Pnttl. ns thcro Is only ono Niagara
Falls. I henrd Pattl sing Inst summer ond
Bho Is tho Bnme Pnttl."
"Is there any truth In tho statement that
she Is going to make another American
tour?"
' They asked mo about It In Chicago ond
I sold I was prepared to bring her over.
I am willing to tour Pnttl ngnln. Some
sny 'Oh. well, wo don't know nbout Pattl.'
Sho sings, you know, Just ns well ns ever:
tho heart Ib all there. And today thcro Is
a generation growing up from below.
Thero Is n myriad of pcoplo grown up, who
were little boys and girls when Pattl wns
here, who wnnt to hear her now; their
parents want them to hear Pattl nnd the
older peoplo w-nnt to hear Pattl again;
and so, I sny, there Is a now gcnerntlon
grcwu up. And thcro arc cities today,
musical cities today that wero small cities
then."
Coiliirlln'n Kornier Tour.
"Is this Coquclln's first tour In this
country?"
"No, no; ho was twlco In this country
before. 1 brought him over flrat from
South America, whenco .wo went to Cal
ifornia. Wo played Kansas City on that
tour and did not play here. I then plnypd
In Mexico nnd went through Havana nnd
that wny out to New York."
"I think your pcoplo hero will turn out
for this attraction I am bringing here. I
think this pcrformnnco of Protrn's of
Scarpla In 'Im Tosca' Is as great as Terana
and I do not think tho American pcoplo
have ever sden It played bdfore. Coquelln
Is great In comedy. Ho gives a wonderful
performance ns tho grave digger In Hamlet.
I saw Joo Jefferson play that, but I must
give tho palm to tho Krenchmnn. Ho
speaks English enough to converso In it
Ho enn understand n good deal, oh, yes!
"Wo camo here with a very big organlza'
Hon seventy people, outsldo of tho pcoplo
wo engaged nB supernumnrics. Eight cars
nnd three carloads of scenery; somo wo sent
dlrcrt to Denver, you know two r-ai's, two
Pullmans nnd n private cor. Wo are horo
on tho 5th of February, one night, ono per
formance. Go from hero to Denver, then
to Snn Francisco, two weeks; then to New
Orleans, ten nights, and then to St. Louis
for a week.
"Thero is an attraction I expect to bring
hero next year, a young man named Martin
Hobbe. Ho Is tbo man who played so many
years In England nnd who Is tho Idol of
London now; ho Is tho Edward Booth of
England Booth In his younger days. Ho
Is only 29 years old. Ho has been In this
country with Irving and was with Irving
eight or ten yenrs."
LOOKS LIKE EXTRA SESSION
Keiinlorn Sounded on tlie Ad vinnlilll t
of I.t-KlNlntliiK nt Once for the
I'hlllniiliirH.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 26. That senators
regard seriously tho prospect of an extra
session of congress In view of tho presl
dent's urgent recommendation of logtHa
tlon concerning tho Philippines Islands,
was evidenced todny by tho activity of
tboso who desire to avoid an extra session.
Tho speculation wns rendered moro dofinlto
by tho fact that Benators known to bo well
informed gonernlly concerning tho presi
dent's plans Joined In tho discussion of tho
outlook.
Cnreful Inquiry also developed tho fact
that tho president had canvassed tho sub
ject with a fow senntors. Ho does not ap
pear to havo Indicated nny fixed deter
mination of Issuing n call, but rather to
havo consulted them ns to tho ndvlsnblllty
of such a proceeding. In nil such Instnncs
ho seems to havo had the necessity of Phll-
lpplno legislation in view nnd senators
generally express tho opinion that In case
a meeting is called tho Phlllpplno question
will recelvo tho lion's sharo of attention.
The urgency of tho administration on this
point Is duo to tho Importunity of the
Tuft commission, tho members of which
appear to havo supplemented tholr official
recommendations for early action with pri
vnto letters, not only to tho president, but
to members of tho cabinet nnd senators
ns well. They Insist upon tho necessity of
early recognition of tho civil rights of tho
Filipinos and of n government for them
other than military In form.
Senators who hnvo concerned themselves
with theso matters havo canvassed tho
senate somewhat today as to tho possi
bility of getting legislation beforo March
In tho lino of that contemplated by tho
bpooner bill, but they have rocclvcd very
little encouragement.
Sonators uro divided upon tho question
of tho necessity of congressional nctlon
upon the Cuban constitution. Sorao of them
contend that congress will not bo called
upon to act In nny wny upon tho constitu
tion. Others admit the correctness of this
view to tho extent of saying that congrcs
slonal action will not bo compulsory, but
they ndvanco tho Idea that the president
will destro to have congress sharo tho re
sponslblllty of whatever stftp may be taken
with reference to the Cuban government

Women who have not known the depths of suffering think too little of the warnings of Nature.
It Is only when suffering is a present reality that they come to realize that life without health is a
living death. Many women with little menstrual irregularities imagine they arc strong and healthy
because they do not suffer much pain. These little irregularities arc symptoms which indicate coming
suffering. It Is well for you to give them immediate attention. You cannot long ignore Nature's
warning. Irregular menstruation and leucorrhcea do not bother much at first, but terrible results
follow if you neglect to treat them. Falling of the womb and all those rocking pains in the head and
back arc the penalties of carelessness and neglect.
CARBU
will banish every trace of leucorrhcea and irregular menses. If you faithfully take it. you need not
suffer or live in dread of coming suffering. Miss Urantlcy found that out, when she wai brought
to the full realization of what a blessing health is. There is no reason why you should not have the
same happy experience as she, if you will heed Nature's warning. All druggists sell $1.00 bottles of
Wine of Cardui.
Hazlehurst, Mist., Feb. 28, 1900.

made a perfect cure in my case at little cost. You have given me every sat.s action. Whenever I suspect
anyone of suffering fro.n the same trouble, I shall most assuredly urge them to take Wine 'TLEy
