April P.'. 1897. The Democrats of the house in caucus endorsed the statements made by Rep resentative Dailey. of Texas, when Rop resontatitive Dingley. in response to Representative Jerry Simpson's protest, bluntly stated that the Republicans did not intoud to allow any general legisla tion by the house at this session. Mr. I llailey said: "We are not inclined to i insist upon the Republican party legis lating. We feel that the country suffers when the Republican party legislates. We have contended this all our lives, and owe sincerely belie vu it. We have j no desire to urge the Republicans to make laws, and \vc desire to understand its policy. We are here ready to dis cuss any measure* you desire to bring up. and belie, ing that nine out of ten of them would he bad we are. ready to help you if your policy is to do noth ing." Speaking of whether the Democrats in the senate ought to resort to filibus tering to tleln\ or defeat the tariff bill, ex-Representative ('lunio, of California, said: *1 am in favor of allowing the Republicans absolute sway and full scope, in the making of a tariff. The freer tin \ an- ft to work their will the ipticker will tin- countn repudiate their acts, for I hold thai prosperity can never come from taxation, hut only from a re adjustment of our linancial system that will put silver hack to its old footing of equality with gold." This is substan tially the position taken by Senator Jones. chairman of the Democratic na tional committee, in a letter made pub lic a few dajs ago. and which is en dorsed by most of the Democrats in both branches of congress. Among the margy prominent business men who are in Washington for tin purpose of pointing out to the senate committee on finance the bad features of the tariff bill, is Marshall Field, the widely known Chicago merchant and prominent Republican. Mr. Field wa asked if In- tared to make a statement for publication concerning the tariff bill, and he replied: No. except the one general remark that it is the worst tariff bill 1 ever saw, not only as regards the rati > of duty imposed, but in the complicated and ambiguous methods ol imposing them. There is scarcely a line in the bill that will not have to he interpreted by the supreme court." In tie death of ex Senator D. W. Voorh'-cs. which occurcd Saturday morning at his Washington residence, the Democratic party lost one of its ablest and hardest workers, a man who litis, for nearly half a century, occupied a place in the front rank* of Democracy in every national campaign. Mr. Yoor hocs lias been in failing health for sev eral years, but his death was entirely unexpected, although ho was in lib seventieth year. Hon. W.J. Ilryan arrived in Washing ton today from Florida. Last evening lie was given :i reception by the Old Domin ion Club and delivered an address before the law school of Columbian university, and this evening lie will be the guest of honor at the big Democratic Jefferson celebration.

Iler speech was a trifle ambiguous, 'nit her meaning was clear; Miss Mi randa seldom mentioned her numer ous years —when she did she meant to take advantage of every one of tliein. "it's no use," said Commilla, to lier elf. "if she intends to have a new bon net she will—and we must diet for it. I sha'n't tell Luke about it yet," she added. And she knew of what she spoke, for genteel poverty was the family fate, and Miss Miranda was a housewife who made one egg do duty for three, and who had difficulty in finding either the butcher or his assistant at leisure to wait upon her when she happened 0 do her own marketing. She was a morsel of a woman with a wiTl of steel tml mild blue eyes which made people who did not know her fancy that she was easily imposed on—until they tried it. The wiry lialr was always decorous ly curled, her own sister knew not how. 1 but sundry twisted bit's of paper, found in sweeping, caused her to draw i her own conclusions. It was the second Sunday in Lent be- I fore the ostensible head of the family j knew what was before him. Tie was ; •seated at the breakfast table, and, glancing at the dish before him, lie said, in a coaxing tone: "Don't you think, 'Randy, that liver j ;iiul bacon sort of pall on the appetite I after you have eaten them for eleven consecutive mornings?" "Luke Harrison," cried his elder sis ter. "you have no appetite, and, now that I notice it, you look sallow, too. Go right upstairs to bed and pile on plenty covers while I mix you a good hot dose of Grandma Todd's tea. Luck ily 1 have all the ingredients at hand." | Luke hesitated, looked into lier eye and—helped himself for the second i rime to liver and baeon. "What is it th - tii:-i, Cainniilla?" he wnispercd, after Miss Miranda had gone to dress for church "Is it lioine mis sions or a plush album for the parlor?" | "Worse. An Easter lion net," she re turned, dolefully. Then, turning on ' her ally, she added: "It's because of ! Em Gas.-ow ay's bragging, too. And why ! I'm Gassoway comes here so often is for you to know!" which was especially i unfair since Luke, timid bachelor, took 1 to the hayloft at sound of the buxom widow's voice. Miss Cammilla's heat ; was excusable, however; she dearly j loved the pleasures of the table, her fa- j vorite reading being the richest recipes In the cook book, and her culinary path i was now a rough one. "How lucky a grocer's wife is," she ! oliloquized. not being, perhaps, eon ! vcrsant with a certain proverb concerti ng the feet of shoemakers'wives. "To hink of being able to try all the re apes in the cook book!" She stopped, crimson, for Job Carter, widower, ; owned a flourishing grocery. "Goodness, Cammilla," cried her sis- • tor, entering suddenly, "what makes your face so red? Truly, you eat too j much. 1 must look closely to your diet, ; after this. I think 1 shall have pink re. ses in my bonnet—lace, too, maybe," | •lie added, with irrelevance which was j only apparent. Glancing out of the ! A itidow as she spoke, she saw Job Car er on his way to church. She was Spartan, but she was human. Job had ailed ostensibly on Luke once or twice lately. She went hastily out, with out. looking to see how much of yester day's roast remained for dinner. Next day she pored over u fashion 1 ook. "Not that I care for them as I Em does," she said, " 'Tisn't right to spend a. lot of money for clothes— tin- I less it is money earned by self-denial, j What are you muttering about, Cain- j tnilla?" "I—l was only saying that 1 think it's hard to save and save without-—1 do want an Easter bonnet, too, Mi ianda!" "Sit right down, Cammilla, while 1 mix you a dose of Grandma Todd's tea; Your face is red as an apple, and you are quite feverish." "I don't want any tea, and I do want an Easter bonnet!" wailed Cammilla, feeling that she, asking bread, had re ceived a stone; but she spoke to deaf I'.a ter drew near and Miss Miranda's hoard, left in one of Job Carter's boxes, •rew apace. The butcher's boy and the grocer's assistant almost forgot the t way to the house, but neither Luke ! nor Cammilla dared complain. T1 ey knew that a bottle of Gramlnia Todd's ten stood ready in the cupboard. Miss Miranda gloated over her pros pective purchase, warming towards Em Gassoway, who had reminded her that her old bonnet w as n bead covering, not a decoration. One agonizing thought, however, poisoned her mind. Which of the two milliners should she pat "Jf I go to Em's milliner she'll likely sec it before and not he surprised on Easter. If T go to the other one, she'll maybe say it's old-fashioned." The bonnet was purchased, however, and came home in good time, and not ! oven a more substantial ten than usual i prevented the iron from entering Cam- : inilla's soul. Fate, however, is prone to trip us , by the heels, and so it. tripped Miss Miranda on the Thursday before Easter, as she was coining downstairs in the j dusk, after a peep at her new bonnet, j hidden in tho "spare room" closet. ; And the instrument of fate was her : sister's "Dutch blue" apron, dropped by : her in a guilty flight after an unauthor- j i7ed glimpse at the same object of art. j The result was a sprained ankle, a j sprain of such gravity that Luke and Cair.milla, though conscious that by in- | purring a bill they cut the ground j from under their feet, sent hastily for the. doctor. "Remember, doctor, that I must go ! to church Easter," groaned the patient. | "Yes, yes," replied the doc log, sooth ingly. Hut he told Cammilla, down stairs, that a sofa and arnica must he her sister's portion for weeks. "Hut on no account allow her to fret," he added. A remark which caused poor Cammilla's opinion of masculine wis- ! dam to go down several points. Easter arrived, finding Miss Miranda reluctantly resigned. "I can go to church in a Sunday or two," she said. "Hy that time Em's bonnet will he an old story. You go to-dny, Cammilla, and during the sermon mark Ein'sbon j net well." Miss Cammilla protested weakly that s he had "not hing fit tow ear." Hersister replied, firmly: "You need fresh air, or else a (lose of Grandma Todd's tea." Of course Cammilla yielded. "He sure to tell me just how it's trimmed," she called after her, "for here I am at the back of the house, not even able to see Em goby!" At these words a guilty thought flashed into Cammillu's mind. Half an hour later she peeped through Ihe shutters of the "spare room" and saw Job Carter at ; his door. "I know it's me that makes him so red if he looks this way," she mused. "If I only had a pretty bonnet to wear to-dav I know I could muster courage to ask him if sugar's gone up or some thing like that." These cogitations must, have made i ; her late, for she merely called good-by, wit bout.entering her sister's room, and * jjtj f - / - - h-- .MISS MIRANDA DISCOVERS THE DE CEPTION. evidently failed to hear a request that sin; bring the new bonnet in to keep j Miss Miranda company. On her re turn, it seemed to the invalid that she delayed long in taking off her wraps, while her description of Em's bonnet 1 was of the vaguest. | "1 suppose Job Carter was more Jn j teresting than u mere bonnet," re | marked Miss Miranda, scornfully. And Cniimiiiin replied, almost boldly: ' "lie walked home with me, anyhow, and he's coining to take me to Wednesday i prayer-meeting." While Cainniiila was preparing a lav i ish tea for Luke, I'm Gassoway came in. j "Don't mind me," she said; "1 know the j way upstairs; I'll run up and tell Mi- I ran da what people wore at church to day. What's the matter; got a chill?" For Cammilla's teeth chattered. "That was a gay bonnet Cammilla J wore to church to-day," she remarked, after her own bonnet had been duiyad i mired by the complacent Miss Miranda. ! "I can't say, though, that pink roses be come her. Mercy, Cammilla, you startled me, coming in like a ghost— you look like one, too!" "W hat's that about pink roses? No, Cammilla, I'm not talking too much. Go right and get my new bonnet. No, I'm not feverish, and another time won't do as well! Now, hold the light while | I show it. There, Em! Did you ever see one like it? Look out, Cammilla, i you'll drop that lamp!" j "Never until to-day," Em replied, de murely. "Why did you have them alike, (filter With a gasp, Miss Miranda held her treasure closer to ihe light. There, clear to her scrutinizing gaze, were two tiny perforations made by unauthorized bonnet pins! Kaxtcr Rve In Italy. On Easter eve the people in all parts of Italy play upon instruments and sing before the shrines of the Virgin Mother of Christ with the poetic idea of assuag ing her grief for the death of her be loved son.
