Washington Notes.
On Thursday of last week. Senator Vilas
enlogizad President Cleveland in the Sen
ate Chamber, said he was a man of truth
and honor, that his letter to Wilson simply
stated his principles and was no encroach
ment on the prerogatives of Congress.
Hill's free coal and iron amendments
received but six votes.
On Friday the tariff bill again narrowly
missed defeat in the Senate. President
Pro. Tem. Ham* sustained Senator Gray's
point of order against Washburn's mo
tion on the Sugar Schedule; Washburn
appealed, and the vote stood 32 to 32.
Steward would not vote. Speaker Crisp
and Mr. MoMullan of the House had a
conference with the President during the
day.
On Saturday the House conferees refus
ed to yield to those of the Senate. The
Senate conferees ®inld not recede on the
Sugar Schedule as that wonld defeat the
bill in the Senate, and the prospeots were
for a deadlock and the defeat of the bill.
On Monday the tension between the Sen
ate and House oonferees was as marked as
ever. The Democratic members of the
conference found themselves in a com
plete deadlock when they met during
the forenoon and the full conference,
called tor 1 o'clock found itself without
business belore it when it convened. The
full conference did not continue to ex
ceed fifteen minutes, and the proceedings
consisted in a statement by the Demo
crats to the Republicans that the Demo
cratic conferees had been nnable to reach
an understanding, and a suggestion on the
part of Chairman Wilson of the house
conferres that the conference adjourn sub
ject to the call of the chairman, which
suggestion was acquiesced in by the Re
publicans.
The impression which ex-Sqeaker Reed
obtained of the situation was embodied
in a rough diagram which he drew while
the conference was in session, which rep
resented the Senate as a locomotive rush
ing down a steep grade under fill steam.
Stretching across the track and directly
in front of the engine is an immense,
well supported bumper which is labeled
"House," the Republican house confer
rees being represented as safely lodged
in tall trees. "That is the situation," he
said. "We all know what must happen
when an irresistible force strikes ac im
movable object." This was the situation
as obtained from any source.
Tuesday evening the prospects of an
agreement on the tariff were much improv
ed. For the first time in many days the
House Democratic conferees came from
the meeting with the statement that pre
vious irreconcilable differences were in
process of amicable adjustment. With
much satisfaction the House members
stated to their associates that the Senators
had shown a disposition for the first time
to meet the House half way. As to whe®
a full agreement would be perfected there
were some differences of opinion. One
House conferne said it would probably be
this week. Another thought it would be
"soon." Chairman Wilson would not
even admit that the understanding had
gone far enough to warrent the pre
diction of a speedy resort. He said, bow
exer, that the conferees had at least
done business and made progress, which
was more than could have been said of
past meetings.
The Senate coaferees oame from the
meeting without showing the hopefulness,
of the House members. They said the
conference was as far fron an agreement
as it had been. While there was this
conflict, among those thoroughly informed
of the inside workings of the conference
the general belief prevailed that the hope
fulness of the House conferees bad some
substantial foundation.
On Wednesday the conferrees met again
and found compromise to be impossible.
The President is exerting all his influence
to compel the Senate to surrender, but the
Sugar Trust men are too strong for him.
DUE of the failings of human nature is
the desire to get something for nothing.
Mathematics prove that this cannot be
<JODO. We may multiply nothing by any
number we please and it will be nothing
still. Common sense should teach us that
it is impossible to get something for no
thing, but it does not do so in masy cases.
If it (Tid so lotteries would cease to exist;
fakirß would have to go to work; gambling
houses would be closed; and the fishing
for "suckers" through the newspapers
with their "something for nothing" as bait
would have to be discontinued for the
want of "suckers" to pay expenses. The
fact that all these things, and many more
of the same kind exist proves that the
fools are not all dead and that there is
enough people trying to get something for
nothing. As long as men can be found to
invest money in mythical western lots,
men will sell them. As long as men and
women try to get free washing machines,
free portraits, free books, free watches,
etc., just so long will these things exist
and continue tbeir business of offering
"something for nothing" and giving "no
thing for something." The surest and
cheapest way is to buy of those who charge
"something for something.—i Sic.
The Forest Fires.
Forest fires in Wisconsin last week, de
stroyed the town of Phillips, county seat
of Price county; Bbires Crossing; Mason
and other" villages. Thousands of people
were left without food or shelter, and as
the rail road bridges were burned it was
imposaable to relieve them promply. At
Phillips, when the flames swept over the
town from the burning lumber, many peo
ple endeavored to save their valuables and
house hold effects, and lingered so long in
the effort as to be cut off from every ave
nue of escape except a small lake, form
ed by the widening of the river. They
then rushed to the lake, and while some
succeeded in escaping, twenty are report
ed to have been drowned.
A special train with provisions arrived
Sunday night. It was the first material
relief to arrive and it came just in time
to keep the people from actual suffering
for want of food. The provisions were
given ont in small qaanitities so as to
make them last long as possible and keep
something available until other provisions
arrived. Men and women walked the
streets, all begrimed, wringing their
hands and bemoaning their sad fate. One
church, a town hall and a tew Nmall build
ing are all that are left standing. Tney
were immediately converted into shelter
for the destitude, but only a few <>t tbo
women and children could crowd into
them A vast multitude had to remain
without ihelter and food, but tents were
brought in from neighboring towns and
improvised huts are being utilized.

The Corean War.
An imperial edict has been issued, call
ing oat the army and navy reserves, and
ordering them to report forthwith at their
respective headquarters.
The Chinese residents of Japan are
greatly alarmed at the threatening out
look and are fleeing from the country in
large numbers.
At Tokio the conviction .is growing in
official circles that the Chinese negotia
tions are simply a pretext to gain time
in order to allow China to concentrate
her forces for the purpose of making a
combined attack on the Japauese.
Reliable information has been received
at Tokio that the main body of the Chi
nese army crossed the northwestern fron
tier of Corea on July 25.
Further details of the firing upon the
Chinese troop ship Kow Shsng by the Jap
anese fleet ou Wednesday last are that the
transport tried to get away as soon as
the Japanese warships began tfceir at
tack, and made only a weak running fight.
The Japanese guns swept her decks and
carried erf the Chinese soldiers by -the
soore. The latest estimate of the number
aboard her was 1,700. Only 40 survived
the foundering ship. They say that all
her officers were killed before she went
down.
On Thursday there was a battle off
Round Island between the Chinese and
Japanese fleets, in which the former was
defeated and one of their gunboats, the
Tsao-Khan, was captured. She was a
vessel of an obsolete model. Although
completely outmatched by the Japanese
cruisers she offered some resistance, and
lost fully 100 men, killed and wounded,
before she yielded. She was entirely
disabled when the Japanese boarded her.
The following is the Chinese official of
ficial version of the engagement which re
cently took place between the Chinese and
Japanese fleets: The collision between
the Chinese and Japanese ships occurred
in the Prince Jerome gulf, in the inlet on
which Asan is situated. The Japanese at
tacked the Chinese vessels which were
escorting the second and smaller division
of troops despatched from Taku to rein
force the Chinese army at Asan. The
Japanese opened Are, the Chinese having
stnet orders not to fire unless they were
attacked, or if the landing of Chinese
troops were opposed.
The result of the action was that one
Japanese ironclad was disabled by the
Chinese battleship Chen Yuen. The Kow
Shung, which was sunk by the Jap
anese, was a chartered transport flying the
British flag. ,
Xo news has been received of the loss ol
the Chinese warship Tsao-Kiang, said to
have been captured by the Japanese. The
Chinese and Japanese ministers remain at
their posts.
Another battle was fought between the
Japanese and Chinese fleets Monday and
again the Japanese were victors.
The engagement resulted in the Jauan
ese kinking the Chinese battle ship Chen-
Yuen, and two large crnisars, supposed to
be the vessels built for China by the Arm
strongs, were captured or destroyed by the
Japanese.
The Chen-Yuen was a battle ship of
7,400 tons displacement, carrying 14|
iiche i compound armour at the water line.
Her battery included four 12 inch guns,
protected by an armoured breastwork and
two smaller Krnpps. She was also furrish
ed with eleven Hotchkiss canuon and
tubes for Whitehead torpedoes. In Ad
dition tho Chen-Yuen had two Bfinoh and
6-inch Krnbbs in her main battery and a
secondary battery of Hotchkiss revolving
cannon.
The Cben-Yuen was built for China at
the Stettin works. She was a sister ship
of the Ting-Yuen, and was the most
powerful war ship in the Chinese navy
with the exception of the Ting-Yuen. The
Chen-Yuen only escaped capture in the
engagement last Tuesday by retreatiug to
Kotze.
The Chiuese fleet engaged carried nearly
a thousand men and a large number of
them are reported to have been killed or
drowned, the latest dispatches saying that
few if any of the Chinese eugaged in the
battle escaped. Two German officers, in
command of the Chen Yuen, are reported
to have met death with the crew of th at
vessel.
The' Japanese government has instruct
ed its minister in London to apologize to
Great Britain for firing upon and sinking
tho transport Kow Shueg while she was
flying the British flae. The Japanese
minister has been instructed to inform
Great Britain that the commander of the
Japanese cruiser did not know that the
Kow Shung was a British vessel until alter
the fight.
Capt. Galesworthy of the Kow Shung
and many other persons who were on
board the transport were rescued by the
boats of the Japanese warship Xaniwa.
The Japanese government has informed
the representatives of the foreign powers
at Tokio that a state of war exists be
tween Japan and China. This is re
garded as equivalent to a declaration of
war.
The Japanese minister at London in
formed the earl of Kimberly, the secretary
of state for foreign affairs, that a state of
war exists between Japan and China.

A Tioga county man has two cats which
follow him about like two dogs. One
evening lsst week they were at his heels as
he was going to the barnyard and a team
ster was passing with his dog. The dog
saw the cats and anticipated some fun;
go did the teamster, and he set his cur on
the cats. The canine made a dash at
them, the lelines dodged, and as the dog
passed one cat leaped upon his back andthe
other fastened her teeth in the dog s hind
leg. While the du«t was being cuffed out
of his back the dog made for a hole in the
fence and dashed off down the road witu
both cats close at bis heels. The dog won
the race, and after his trouble was over he
trotted very demurely alongside the
wagon.
A tew days ago a j-oung man named

Wm. Vasbinder and wife of Madison
twp. Armstrong Co , met with a terrible
accident the 15th inst', that nearly cost
them their lives. Mr. Vasbinder, who
resides on the Anderson farm near Kis
singer's Mills, had opened up a coal bank
on the plsce, and after running it in a
short distance had struck a small flow of
natural gas that worked in through a crev
ice. Oa the afternoon of the above date
he and his wife started ont for the cows
and as they passed the bank decided to
inspect it and find if the gas was still pre
sent. Mr. Vasbinder went in a distance
of four or five sets of timbers, while his
wife remained near the entrance end lean
ed against the pillars to await his return.
He lit a match, when, in a moment, flames
shot up all around, and following this
quickly was a terriffie explosion that shook
the earth for a considerable distance.
Mr. Vasbinder was hurled to the outside,
while the roof was blown out and the mine
ruined The explosion worked upward,
which iu all probability saved the lives
of both. The distance from the flour to
the top of the mine was thirty feet, but
the explosion tore its way to the top and
scattered stones and earth in all directions.
Mr. and Mrs. Vasbinder were both badly
burned and bruised. The former had the
hair on his head almost completely burned
off while scarcely any clothes remained
on his body. Mrs. Vasbinder escaped
with less injury as she was near the en
trance. but was severely burned and bruis
ed. The uoise of the explosion brought
friends to the scene who helped the injur
ed ones to their homes, and although they
were in groat pain and severely injured,
the physician found no bones broken.
Both are recovering as rapidly as could
be expected, and are congratulating them
selves on the narrow escape they had from
death. — Rcricic.

For the dark and silent tomb;
Closed her eyes in deathless slumber,
Faded in her youthful bloom.
How our hearts were touched with pity,
When we laid von down to rest:
Yet we know that you are happy,
Safe at home with Jesus blest.
Dearest sister, thou has't left us,
Thou hast passed to worlds on high,
There to be at home with Jesus,
There to live and never die.
So now a long farewell, dear sister.
Until life's journeys o'er;
And we'll prepare to meet you
On heaven's shining shore.
