July C Thure Is 11 gen oral disposition lu the sunuto to shape business so as to bring about nn ml Journinent of congress not Inter than Aug. 1. In line with this plim, the seuute hits ngroed uniinluiously to meet uu hour earlier each day uud to remain In ses Blon seven hours. The hour of meet ing was expressly fixed for 11 o'clock, to remain In session until 0 o'clock. It Is likely thut within n few days, Senator Penrose, chairman of the fin anco committee, will ask the senate to fix a date by unanimous consent for n rote on the Canadian reciprocity bill. The Insurgent senators declare they have no Intention to obstruct and with u few speeches yet to come they will bo ready for a vote on the Canadian bill.

The senator himself Is noncommittal ns usual. Rut while his speech may cover several days, It Is not likely to be continuous. The senator from Wisconsin will probably run the speech In sections and there will be time between each Installment for other senators to edge in nnd thus no time will be lost. Senator Cummins has closed his ad dress. He will probably figure In the running debnte from time to time, but will not address the senate ngaln In a set speech on the subject of Canadian reciprocity. Senator Burton rnado a notable speech In support of tbo Canadian reciprocity. He was subjected to a fuslllado of questions and his speech occupied more than three hours. Representative Underwood, chair man of the ways and means commit tee of the house, conferred with the senate leaders. He told them the bouse cotton bill would be ready for the senate lu about two weeks. He stated further that the ways and means committee would Immediately tako up the other schedules of the Payne-AIdrlch law and revise them nnd send them over to the senate. This work will go on, he says, as long ns congress la In session. WOMAN ROBBER SENTENCED. Widow Qets Six Months For Looting Mails In New York. New York, July a Mrs: Mary J.

Divorces are scarcely ever known to occur in modern Greece. In Hindostan either party for a slight cause may leave the other and marry. In the olden times the Jews had a discretionary power of divorcing their wives. Divorces are scarcely allowed in Thibet unless with the consent of both parties and remarriage Is for bidden. In the Arctic region a man who wants a divorce leaves the house In anger and does not return for several days. The wife takes the hint and departs. If the wlfo of a Turkoman asks his permission to go out and he savs "Go" without adding "Come back again," they are divorced. In Cochin China the nartles desir ing a divorce -jreak a pair of chop sticks In the presence of witnesses and the thing is done. HOW TO PRESERVE EGGS.
