the program In the senate for this week
is quite liidennlte. The Alanka bill Is
of much wider scope than its title In
dicates, and It will not be voted upon
without considerable discussion. There
Is no general disposition to defeat the
Mil. but some senators are of the opin
ion that It should be amended In sev
eral particulars, and they wlfl seek
to secure these changes before the vote
is taken. It Is believed the bill will
pass after a day or two of talk upon It.
It Is probable that after tho Aluslmn
hill Is disposed of smrie of the bills of
less general Importance on the cal
endar will be consldt red. One of these
Is the bill for the payment of the claim
of tho book agents of the Southern
Methodist church for property destroy
ed at Nashville during the civil war.
This bill appropriates $288,000, and has
aroused some opposition.
Senators generally agree that unless
there Is some renBo'n for postponing
adjournment It can be reached by Maj
or June. The friends of the Hawaiian
treaty say, however, that some of the
appropriation bills will be held back
until the question of annexation Is de
cided. The program of the house for the
coming week Includes the completion
of the sundry civil bill, which has Jjeen
under consideration since last Wed
nesday, action on tlie bill for the re
lief of tho victims and survivors of the
Maine disaster, the senate bill author
izing the enlistment of two additional
regiments of artillery, and the Loud
bill relating to second class mall mat
ter. The lutter bill has been made the
special order for Tuesday. Wednesday

is anticipated.

Put If you have weak kidneys, Idadder
troublo or distressing kidney complaint, then
Swaiiip-ltoot will prove to bo just tho remedy
you need. Too frequeut desire to urinate,
scanty supply, pain or dull acho in the back
is convincing evidence, that your kidneysand
bladder need doctoring.
Thero is comfort in the knowledge so often
expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swiunp-lioot,
tho great kidney remedy fulfills overy wish
iu relieving pain in tho back, kidneys, liver,
bladder and every part of the, urinary
passage. It corrects inability to hold urine
aud scalding pain iu passing it, or bad effects
following tiso of liquor, whip or beor, and
overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to get up many times during the
night to urinate. The mild aud the extra
ordinary effect of Swamp-Hoot is soon
realised. It stands the highest for its
wonderful cures of tho most distressingcases.
If you need a medicine you should have tho
best. Sold by druggists, price fifty cents and
one dollar. You may have a samplo bottle
and pamphlet both sent freo hy mail upon
receipt of three two-cent stamps to cover

Thousands of People HaWe Dyspepsia in Its
Worst Form and Do Not Know It
A weak stomach is the cause of about
nine-tenths of all disease, yet iu most cases
the wrong thing is trptcd and the true
cause overlooked.
This is because a enk digestion pro
duces symptoms resembling neajly every
disease because it weakens and disturbs the
action of every nerve a:
id organ in the body;
poor digestion causes h
part trouble, kidney
troubles, lung weakness
and especially ncr-
voui break down or nervous prostration, the
ni ves cannot stand the
wear and tear unless
generously fed by well
digested, wholesome
food.
Keep the digestion goj

TRIED TO KILL A ICING.
Ilenrgo of (Jiwee I'lrt-d Upon Whllo
Dl-lvlliu' With Ills Duiichtfi'.
Athens, Feb. 2S. While King George
wns returning from I'hnlerum Satur
day evening In a landau, accompanied
by the Princess Maria, two men who
were hidden in a ditch alongside the
road opened lire with guns upon the
occupants of the cairlage. The flrBt
shot missed, but the second wounded
a footmnn in tho arm. The coachmnn
whipped up his horses, and the royal
party tlnshed awny at a gallop. The
miscreants fired seven shots after
them, none of' which took effect, and
the king nnd princess returned to the
palace unhurt.
When the second shot whizzed past
the carriage the king rose and stood
in front of his daughter, In order to
shield her. One of the horses was
slightly wounded. One of the assail
ants knelt In tho middle of tho road
nnd aimed straight at the king, who
noticed that the man's hand was shak
ing. Tho shot missed, and the king
had a clear view of this man, who, his
majesty says, wa3 barely 20 years old.
He continued to lire after the carriage
until It was out of range. His com
panion, who was more cowardly, did
not leave the ditch.
The action of his majesty In shield
ing his daughter, the princess, at the
risk of his own life has aroused great
enthusiasm.
Tho first shot was llred at a distance
of 20 jjards. The king relates that he
perceived a third individual a little fur
ther away, and several persons who
wereln the vicinity during the after
noon report seeing suspicious looking
meij In a field beside the road.
A cadet who was on horseback some
dltanco behind the royal carriage
hJard tho shots and galloped to tho
scene In time to see the king's assail
ants fleeing in the direction of Hy
mettus. All tho healing balsamic virtues of the
Norway pino aro concentrated in Dr. Wood's

LA CHAMPAGNE SAFE.
Tlio Ovordtio Fronoli Liner T'owotl
Into Halifax Harbor.
New York, Feb. 23. Saturday night
the Holland-Atncrlcnn line steamer
Rotterdam, from Rotterdam, arrived at
Quarantine with Third Olllcer George
Unswerth nnd nine seamen of La
Champagne on board. They wero pick
ed up from a lifeboat on Feb. 21. Tho
men when taken aboard the Hotter
dam were In a helpless condition, hav
ing been In the ship's lifeboat for six
days and nights. They suffered ter
ribly from the effects of tho weather,
and were nil more or less frost bitten.
Third Olllcer Unswerth stated that
La Champagne broke her tall shaft on
Feb. 17, at 5 p. in., und the vessel was
totally dlnabled.
On the morning of tho 18th, the life
boat being fully provisioned, Unswerth
and his crew of nine men left the ship's
side In the hope of intercepting some
passing steamer and getting assistance
for the disabled liner. The men work
ed stendlly at the oars until, on tho
24th, nt 1 p. m the Rotterdam bore
down and stood by, and with no little
difficulty rescued all hands. Captain
Bonjer nnd his officers made the men
us comfortable as possible, and tho
Rotterdam's surgeon nttonded careful
ly to thu suffering seamen.
Olllcer Unswurth reported that La
Champagne was In no danger when he
left, but an the vessel was totally dis
abled there was considerable anxiety
regarding her until last night, when
a telegram from Halifax announced
that the vessel had been towed Into
that harbor by the steamer Roman,
with all on board safe and well.
