Jan. rr. Blaine got away from callers bong enough today to make a few calls of his own. It was Supreme Court day and the Maine statesman went out to Belmont to pay is respects to the family of his old neighbor at Augusta, Chief Justice Melville W. Fuller.

Mr. Blaine, atter paying his respects to tbe hostess, spent a pleasant half hour in the parlors, wnere every one was anxious to do him honor. It happened at the time of his call that most of the ladies in public life who were present were the wives of Democratic oalcials and there were several amusing incidents. Won't you please introduce me to Mr. Blaine," said the wife of a Democratic Senator turning to another lady who was an entire stranger.

My husband talks so much about him that I would be delighted to wake hi3 acquaintance." MN. Fuller's reception was a crowded one. She was assisted in receiving by her daughter. Callers still find trouble in distinguishing the young ladies of the Chief Justice's family. At the New-Year's reception the fourth dauzliti'r, Miss Mildred, who attends Wells College, was home and received.

She is the tallest of the group. a blonde, and line looking. A friend introducing a stranger started out in the stereotyped formula: "Miss Fuller, permit me" "Now, stop right there," said the vivacious blonde, "I am not Mss Fuller; I am numper four. You met Miss Fuller receiving, and allow me to present you to the Misses Fuller numbers two and three. That's the way we keep the run of the family." You are a senior at Wellesley!" said the young man who had just been introduced to Fuller number four.

"Call it Wells without the esley and you will have it," said the young lady, sweetening her correction with a pleasing smile. They Wanted to Bear the Senate Debate on the Monroe Doctrine. WASHINGTON, D. Jan. 7.pecial.1 The diplomatic representatives from the Central and South American States were intensely disgusted today.

They went up to the Senate to hear the discussion on Mr. Edmunds' resolution regarding the attitude of the European Governments toward inter-oceanic canals on the American continent. They are vitally interested in the matter, and, having missed tla.e open discussion of Saturday, they determined to hear that of today, and almost tided the diplomatic gallery. When the motion to go into secret session was adopted they departed, greatly disappointed, expressing their ine.bility to understand the policy of Congress, or a braucti of it which varied so from day to day. Some of the Senators hinted that there was no good reason why the doors should have been closed unless Mr.

Eduaunds was afraid some one would ask why it took him eight years to find out that Mr. Blaine was right on the necessity for aggressive action by the United States in upholding the Monroe doctrine. The debate would have been an instructive one to European as well as to South American Governments. Some amusement would have been caused had Senator itcagan's attempts to get on both sides of the question been in public lie voted against the resolution and then tried to change to the aftrmative, but this privilege was denied him. New York Playgoers Are in Love with the Boy and Girl Who Alternately Impersonate the Young Hero of Mrs.

Brett DrawMuter Ituassire Personal Preferences and Opinions-11m Discovery of Elsie and Her Career. There is a French play called "Cadet Roussel" which for nearly half a century has been drawing lauglater and tears from the good French people. The hero of it, who is a volunteer in the Napoleonic wars, is left as sentry in an important mountainous post. Behind a rock he finds two cnilarensicepkng. fearing the enemy advance he wakes the children, slings a drum around the neck of each, and makes them beat as bard a tattoo as their little hands will let them.

The enemy, believing that their foes are in force, retreat and leave the post to the volunteer and his victorious children. They say that the incident is historical. Well, there are two chilaren in New York who deserve to be commemorated as worthily as Cadet Roussel's little drummers. Bankruptcy, ruin, and destruction were the enemies advancing on the Broadway Theatre when the children' were called to tha front, and by their pretty talent caused the enemy to flee. The first of them is Tommy Russell.

When Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett turned her delicate story of Little Lord Fauntleroy into a play, and brought it back to America, where it belonged, she stipulated that Elsie Leslie should be her small hero. Elsie Leslie had won distinction in "Editha's Burglar," which set the seal on Mrs. Burnett's fame as a painter of child-life. But there were shrewd judges of the stage who said, A boy should be played by a boy." "No doubt," said Mrs.

but find me the boy." They found ber the boy. He was the brother of Annie Russell, the prettiest and most pathetic of Esmareldas, the Marguerite of the Madison Square Theatre, with the timid ways, and down-cast eyes, and the "je no suis mu demoiselle et belle" of Faust's village maid. And so it came to pass that when "Little Lord Fauntleroy was produced at the Broadway Theatre Elsie Leslie and Tommy Russell played the principal part alternately. --T ir it '1' At 7 sib 5 iti A A I 44 A 'd! 01,, ttlItlii 1k' '144 111 Ah iol 4r, I ill. 4c( 44' IP AIL.

I li: 2,241: A Resolution Adopted Declaring That the Government of the Conntry Will Look with Disapproval on the Attempt of Any Foreign Power to Control the Proposed Canal Across th Isthmus of Panama General Washington News. WasniNoTos, D. Jan. 7.Mr. Hoar, from the Judiciary Committee, reported back the Senate bill to abolish circuit court power in certain district courts of the United and to provide for writs of error in capital cases.

He stated that it was intended to apply to the State of Arkansas and the Indian Territory, where in capital cases, exceptions had under existing law to be argued before the Judge who sat at the triaL The bill had been carefully considered last session, and had passed both Houses, failing to become a law only for want of the President's signature before adjournment. The bill was passed. Mr. Cockrell, from the Committee on Public Lands. reported the bill to establish the Lincoln Land District in the Territory of New Mexico, and made a like statement as to its having passed both Houses last session and having failed to receive the President's signature before adjournment The bill was passed.

Mr. Chandler reported a resolution, which was referred to the Committee on Contingent Expenses, instructing tie committee on the Mississippi River to continue its investigations into the existing and proposed methods of work. including the whole subject of the Mississippi River. The resolution reported from the Committee on Foreign Relations in reference to the Panama Canal was then taken up and Mr. Gray rose to make some remarks.

but was interrupted by a motion made by Mr. Edmunds and seconded by Mr. Hoar that in the consideration of that subject the doors be closed. The galleries were accordingly cleared, the doors closed, and the Senate, at 12:35, proceeded to the discussion of the subject in secret session. The secret session continuect till 5:40, when the doors were opened.

It was then found that the discussion had been carried on by Senators Edmunds, Sherman, Morgan, Gray, and Jones of Arkansas, and that tile joint resolution was adopted (yeas nays 3), having been modified so as to read: ite8o1ved, By the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, that the Governmext of the United States will look with serious concern and disapproval upon any connection Of any European Government with the construction or control of any ship canal across the Isthmus of Darien or across Central America. anti must regard any such connection or control as injurious to the just rights and interests ot the 'United States and as a menace to its welfare. Sec. 2. That the President be and he is hereby requested to communicate this expression of the views of the Government of the United States to the Governments of the countries of Europe.

The vote in detail is: Thinks That Both bberman and Allison Will Be Invited to the CabinetWASHINGTON, D. Jan. York Herald SpeciallMr. Iliscock of New York was the centre of attraction among his Senatorial associates today. Mr.

Iliscock returned from Indianapolis last night. His appearance in the Senate Chamber this morning was the sigrral for a general movement in that direction. First Mr. Everts went over and dropped into the seat beside him- The two put their beads together and chatted for half an hour. It was noticeable, however, that Mr.

Hiscock did most of the When Mr. Evans moved away Gen. Joe Hawley of Connecticut and Jr. Allison of Iowa took his place. In a few minutes Mr.

Allison looked up, and seeing Senator Cullom crossing the area in front of the Vice-President's desk, beckoned to the Illinois Senator, who immediately joined the group; and so it went during most of the afternoon, until the majority of Mr. Hiscock's Republican associates had had the opportunity of talking wan him. From wnat Mr. Iliscock said it Is Inferred that both Senators Sherman and Allison will be invited to accept a place in Gen. Harrison's Cabinet.

To the former the portfolio of state will be given and to the latter the Treasury portfolio. It is not understood that to these gentlemen a direct tender ef these places has been made, but it will come in due season, and when it does both will accept. Gen. Harrison's idea, it is said, is to with-hole ths names of his Cabinet Ministers until all have been agreed upon, when they will be announced simultaneously. Neither Senators t3nerman nor Allison desires to enter the Cabinet.

Each realizes that to ao so would be to destroy whatever hope he may entertain of securing a Presidential nomination himself. In ati human probability Gen. Harrison wilt desire to be his own successor. Silo Wit he secure a nomination it will be eight years before Sherman or Allison could come to the front again as candidates. When that time arrives Mr.

Allison will be 67 years ole and Mr. Sherman 73. In this era of young men each would have passed the age mien it is desirable to select a Presidential candidate. Yet, notwithstanding these facts, notwithstanding the tremendous sacrifice which they must necessarily make, it is stoutly asserted that they will do as requested, and for the four years beginning with the ath of next Marcn become the most prominent members of Gem. Harrison's poliLeal household.

The gentlemen who make this prediction say that Sherman and Allison will take this step from strict convictions of duty. They feel that they owe all that they are to the Republican party; that the party expects Oen. Harrison to give the country a strong administration, and that he can only do this by drawing about him the ablest men within its ranks, and that. therefore, should he call upon them, as he undoubtedly will, they have no alternative but to accept- In this connection it may be stated that the gossip connecting Mr. Evans' name with toe Engiisn mission, thus making a place in the Senate for Warner Miller of New York, finds many believers since Mr.

Senator Quay is going to Florida nest week to remain till spring. Knowing this a good many of his colleagues are trying to End out whether he expects to make any further suggestions to President Harrison about the Cabinet, but they don't get much satisfaction. The Pennsylvania Senator still holds the opinion which he brought back from Indianapolis that he need not worry over John Wanamaker's chances. It is also understood that the view he took at that time about Mr. Blaine's prospects has not changed.

This was that by the time Gen. Harrison came to make up his Cabinet the sentiment in favor of giving the Maine statesman prdper recognition would be so strong and well defined that an invitation for him to become Secretary of State would naturally follow. Sunset Cox, though of opposite political faith, is out in an interview in which he speaks highly of the fitness of Congressman John R. Thomas for the Navy Department. Cox was Chairman of the Committee on Naval Affairs in the Forty-ninth Congress, and he formed a high opinion of Capt.

Thomas' abiltty. The Illinois member, he says, was largely instrumental in the passage of the bill for the first cruiser of the new pattern. Tins cruiser formed the nucleus of the fleet now in process of completion. AN IMPOSSIBLE COMBINATION. New Legislation Needed in Regard to lheir Importation.

WASHINGTON, D. Jan, H. Saunders of Chicago is in the city in the Interests of tho Cattle-Growers' and Horse-importers' Association. The Senate Finance Committee has been granting him hearings in regard to certain provisions in the new tariff bill concerning the importation of cattle and horses for breeding purposes. During the present Administration, Mr.

Saunders states, there have been many difficulties encountered by the breeders' association with the custom-house authorities as to the explicit construction to be placed on the law entitling animals for breeding purposes to be entered free of duty. The custom officers held that these animals should be entered solely for breeding and not to be sold after their importation. The importers held that they could not carry on their business unless the animals were sold to different individuals for breeding purposes. The result of this difference of opinion involved many heavy lawsuits between the custom authorities and the importers. These suits were all dismissed by an order of the Treasury Department last March, but ho law was passed specifying exactly the privileges of importers.

In order to avoid further controversy; and lawsuits in the matter Mr. is urging upon the Senate Committee to state explicitly in the forthcoming revenue bill that all and any animals may be imported to this country for breeding purposes whether they are sold or riot alter their importation. i i s'11 li? 1 A 4 -----X 4 Al u'r'li 40 l' 4 Yc b. ft, ist, A GREAT FORTUNE FOR SOMEBODY.

A NOBLEMAN IN DISTRESS. iIiuo Washington Has Another Scion of Germany's Nobility to Lionize. ASHINGTON, D. Jan. Washington has a genuine German noble-an in distress.

He is Detlef Olszwiski, who quarreled with his family and came to this country, found work with a firm of fresco painters here, then wentto Baltimore, where he got a position as coachman, and finally turned up in Philadelphia worn out with typhoid-fever and destitute, but still relusing to take a penny from his family. A department official and Ms 'wife heard from friends abroad of the young nobleman's presence here, and showed great kindness to him. When they heard of his destitute condition in Philadelphia the wife went there and brought him back UN this city. Olzwiski speaks imperfect EniZlish, but tells this stury of himself: Yes, it is true I am of noble birth. I had a quarrel with my brothers and left my home on the banks of the 1-thine and came to Washington, where I got work a fresco painter.

I have a brother in the Bulgarian army. and I hope soon to return to Europe to espouse the cause of the deposed Alexander." Wanted: A' Comfortable SeatLet Inventors Try Their New York San: Thousands of models of a perfectly comfortable seat wili be made this winter in the Northern States by healthy boys playing in the snow banks. They will cast themselves backward against the slope of the drifts and sink and wriggle themselves Into a position of heaveuty rest in which the absolute content of the bead, shoulders, back, and legs allures body and soul to slumber, even In a temperature of zero. And there is not a this smartest of nations smart enough thus far to have made a chair on the lines left in the suow bank Dy the boy's body. For forty-five years the male American's experience of chairs and other furniture to sit on has been a martyrdom to ignorance and fashion.

Their convex surfaces may tie toe deserved punishment of our National sin of permitting unrestricted immigration. They came from Germany, and were the treacherous gat of German upholsterers to the confiding Republic that welcomed and fostered them. By reason of the convexity of the seats there is not in any well-furnished parlor in this city a comfortame chair or sola. To sit on them is to sit on a globe or a cannon ball. The seat should always be hollow.

But the palm for reckless cruelty and unthinking stupidity in the manufacture of furniture for domestic life is easily carried off by our American swift money makers. Consider the rocking-chair which curses our places of summer resort, setiside, and mountain. Look at the abominable thing laterally! It is the contrivance of an idiot or a devil. The seat slopes steeply backward. The rockers, short ano excessively curved, serve additionally to throw the front edge of the seat up into the air.

This lifts the sitter's feet from the floor and brings the weight of the legs on tee sharp edge of the seat front, and accomplishes a torture which no human being eau endure for over fifteen minutes without an outcry or an oath. Regard the thing's back! A recess, too deer) by half, invites the shoulders to repose. Below this recess a malicious bulge in the structure lams the tender small of the back, forces the lower part of the spine to sustain the entire weight of the reclining trunk, and defeats possibility of rest to the shouiders. it must have been a Puritan cabinetmaker's Idea of the line of beauty that established the curvature of the American rocking-chair's back, which from the shoulders uo recedes into space ana mockingly refuses the weary head. Certainly, there is a treat fortune for somebody in a perfectly restful seat on chair, sofa, and rocker for American use.

The Nation is in a state of mad revolt au in a mood to be reckless about the price of relief. The mechanic who starts for tnis gold mine must carry In his baud and hold before his eyes the "convex" utterly smashed, hated, despised. and spit on. The eibtatthened mooel of our rocking-chair's back nivat be felt by him to ba the unpardonable sin and the crowning shame of American household art. This mechanic's soul must be tiled with a reverence for curled horse hair, and his gorge must rise chronically against moss, excelsior, tow, shoddy, and rags as material for a seat for an honest man to make for a good Man to sit on.

No Union of Democrats with Anarchists and Socialists-Chicago Daily Globe, Jan. 7: The Globe hereby declares and records the emphatic dissent of all honest Democrats, here ano elsewhere, to the implication of the that they can be combined with Anarchists and Socialists for the purpose of gaining the City Government. or for any purpose. Anarchism and Socialism are theapolar opposite of Democracy. Anarchists and Socialists are no more Democrats than Satan and his demons in the pit of Gehenna are angels of rightecusneEs and light- As between me angels and the devils there is uncompromising and eternal war, so also between Democrats and the evangelists of the Anarchists' hell there is uncompromising and eternal war.

These implacable, natural. and uncompromIsing enemies cannot be united, neither under the leanership of 31r. Carter IL Harrison nor that of any other demagogue living, for any political purpose, nor any purpose whatever of that world. That the new Anarchiat leaders in Chicago Imagine the posaibility of sucn an unholy altiallee there is no doubt. That they and their new organ think that they are Warming to effect it tnere is no doubt.

They have "shown their hand plainly as well as early in the game. They are still hoping wreag their "revenge" Amon the agents of the hiw in Chicago woo, as they say. -crucified their martyrs." They are deluding themselves with the idea that they can enlist tbe Democrats of Chicago in tneir revenge program by rallying again under the banuer of their old leader, Id. C. IL Harrison.

They will learu that it is a delusion. That they should prefer him for their leader to any other man is natural. lie is the man who, as Mayor of Chicago, old more than any other score of Anarchist apostles have done to encourage. strengthen, and advance their criminal propaganda- To him they owe the liberty they enjoyed during several years to preach sedition. to inculcate labviessuess, to encourage and prepare a program of destruction to property and Life, uoenly in the public places as well as in a thousand grogshops and gloomy assemnly rooms of Chicago.

Under his fostering ri.gune they drilled their armed sections," estabilshed their arsenals, fabricated their eynamite petards and other appliauces of criminal "war against society." against property, and against property-owners. What the ()lute said of this man two or three years ago was true then and is true stillto his scanialous plowing with the unclean heifer, anarchy, was due. more than to any other cause, tile horriele butcheiy of the baymarket. He permitted the seditious villains to preach sedition, to organize lino prepare Insurrection, to plan slaughter, and to teach alien ignorance that in tins Republic the law wid protect criminals in planning and preparing to overset the And now come the same Anarchist dupes of gr. Harrison's nursing-bootie of sediuoe, flattering themselves that they can get the DemocraiA to act as tueir assistants in obtaining upon tee ministers ef the law who brought their blessed "martyrs" to justice, by returning their man Ildrrison to the place where he can do them tae most good.

It is a charming program from the anarchy standpoint But It will not be performed. Because, in the first place, between Democrats and Anarchists. Democracy and Anarchy, there is irreconcilable and eternal hostility. because, in the second place, Mr. Carter H.

Harrison is not a Democrat, but an ingrained adversary of the most, vital Democratic principles. Becaube, in the third Waco. the Democrats of Claicago are law-analIng, law-respecting citizens; upholders of law and order; believers and defenders of liberty under law, not over it; owners of something which we ascenoency of anarchy in the city adruimstration would damage and ruin; honorable men who respect toe rights of their neighbors. and will eelend them as their own against domestic aiien enemies led by Carter H. Harrison, as readily as against foreign alien enemies led by a regal MR.

SPRINGER ON DIVORCE. Judge Moody. Senator-Eleet from Dakota. Arrives at the Capital. WASHINGTON, Jan.

Judge Moody, one of Dakota's Senators-elect, has just arrived in this city, after having stopped over in Indianapolis to consult with Gen. Harrison on matters of interest to tilos Territories which are now seeking admission as States. Mr. Moody is extremely cautious in his expressions just now because he fears that his words may be quoted as coming from Gen. Harrison.

He said, however, that the chances are all in favor of an extra session of the Fifty-first Congress. There will be a delegation of Dakotans in town during the latter period of tbis week. Fifteen or twenty of the more prominent citizens of the Territory are on their way here to do all in their power to push legislation looking to the speedy admission of me Territory as two States. The delegation will be headed by Judge Bartlett Tripp, Cuiel Justice of the Supreme Court of Dakota, and Governor-elect Mellette. The two great political parties are about equally represented in the delegation.

MRS. CLEVELAND'S DIRECTOIRE GOWN. The directolte gown of French gray and pink faille, trimmed with Russian sable, which Mrs. Cleveland wore at the President's New Year's reception suited her so perfectly that several energetic women have decided that the present mistress of the White House must have her portrait painted in that gown to hang in the White House. To further their design three of them called upon the Cabinet ladies and made known their purpose.

All of the Cabinet ladies favored tne plan. Of the later mistresses of the White House Mrs. Hayes is the only one wnose portrait hangs there, and it was given as a mark of esteem because of Mrs. Hayes' temper-ranee principles. Mrs.

Cleveland is also a teetotaler and has given public testimony of her adherence to total abstinence. A BOOM FIJIt McKINLEY. This evening the solid Ohio Republican delegation made an aggressive movement toward electing' McKinley to the Speaker-ship of the House. The delegation formally called on Mr. McKinley at his quarters in the Ebbitt House and announced to him their intention of supporting him for Speaker.

Tnis practically rules Ben Butterworth out of the contest by his own consent, and the fight now lies between Cannon, Burrows, McKinley, Henderson of Iowa, and Reed. The Onio Republican members outnumber those from any other State except New York and Pennsylvania, neither of which has a candidate. There are sixteen Ohio Republicans. Next to McKinley Mr. Cannon has the largest delegation at his back, the Illinois delegation nurnoertng thirteen.

Reed has only four members from Maine, but he counts on a solid New England support as an offset to the big States. UE VESTS AT CANNES. In a private letter received in this city from Miss Sackvilie-West, dated in Paris, she says that their reception both in Paris and London was of the most cordial nature. Lord Salisbury was exceedingly gracious to Lord Sackviile; but, as there is no embassy vacant at present, the late British Minister here and his two daughters, the Misses Victoria and Amelia Sackville- West, will spend the winter at Cannes, in France.

L. G. Shepherd of the revenue marine service, who made a cruise in Alaskan waters during the seasons of 1ti7 and 1S88. He said his visits to tne seal islands were principally in the day time and he had no opportunity to see what occurred at night. He never heard of any of the reported outrages ana was never asked to protect any one.

Commander IS ictiols, stationed at San Francisco, was in Alaskan waters last summer in the interest of tne coast survey, and was at tne seal islands for a snort while. He told the committee that he saw nothing in the treatment of tee natives that would lead to adverse criticism. They were apparently happy and contented. So far as he could judge the company had been living up to the terms of the contract. Cant.

C. A. Abbey of the revenue marine service said the condition of the natives on the seal islands would compare favorably with that of the corresponding class of people of any other country. Louis Kimmel of Lafayette, the next witness, was an Assistant Treasury Agent at the seal Island of St. George from May, to August, He was questioned with reference to the correctness of an interview between himself and a correspondent of a IsTew ork paper in Indianapolis.

which reflected sericusly upon the conduct of the agents of Alaska and of the seal island of St. George. IN itness said the interview as published was perverted, that something had been put in his mouth that he had never uttered. Mr. G.

R. TiUe, a General Treasury Agent to the seal islands, said that he could state positively from a three years' experience upon the islands that the published stories from wiiatever source were absolutely false.

Irving or Mr. Booth. Their opinions on matters of the day are sought by the press. They are sketched at home. Pcn-portraits are made of them, especially by the New York Son, which bas received the contideuces of both.

And, what is more, they are represented as being unspoiled by the homage that is paid to them. Tommy Russell receives visitors in what is now known as a "Fauntleroy suit. He wears a blue jersey with a scarlet sash. He nas biii sister Annie's soft voice, fair hair, and blue eyes. But tnere is a robustness about him that snocks the gushing females who want to coddle and pet him.

Besides, his heart is no longer his own. Ile has not. as might be supposed, bestowed it oil Elsie Leslie. he says with determination. I like Eisie ever so much.

She gave me a lovely book for Christmas." As a donor of books be admits Miss Leslie's advantages. But as a sweetheart, never. Is he not already engaged to Fannie Dunlap Miss Dunlap. he argues, has incluiputabie claims to hos devotion. She's some good.

I tell you," he says. She's so pretty, and she can play tops and everything. That's the kind of a girl I like." Alas for Elnie Leslie. She may be a capital little actress for aught this young swain cares. But she cannot play tops or the games which Master Russell includes under the generic head of "everything." Hence be will have none of her.

He is quite a veteran on the stage, by the way. He led the march in the pantomime of "Ilumety Dumpty" when he was only 3 years old. Coming of English theatrical stock, having two sisters on the stage he was bound to march well. lie marched so well that Mr. E.

A. McDowell of the Boston Museum engaged him at the age of 5 for a tour in the West Indies. But Mr. McDowell was not high enough in the profession to suit Master Tommy. "If I act at all," said he, "I must act with the best people." Bernhardt and Modjeska simply fought for him.

Modjeska had him to play in Euglish at matinees, and Bernhardt had him to play in French at evening performances. He has recorded valuable meanie' of Mule. Bernhardt as an actress. She wasn't pretty." he says, "but she gave me a splendid tricycle." That tricycle redeemed Sarah Bernhardt's histrionic fame. But greater rewards were in store for Tommy Russell.

Mr. Booth engaged him. He was at that time playing with Modjeska in the evening, and he bad to jump into a carriage and ride to the other theatre and appear with Mr. Booth. "That was fun," he says.

"It was so exciting." He established relations of great intimacy with the celebrated tragedian. Re presented Mr. Booth with a tin dancing-girl as a token of his esteem. In presenting it be made a littie speech. "Mr.

Booth," her said, "I've got some friends on the newspapers and I'll get them to write something nice about you." "Are you going," he was asked, "to be a great actor when yoU grow ant" "No," said be, "I mean to be a farmer. I thing that would be the jolliest, don't youl" DbiCOVERY Of ELSIE.

Mr. Springer is anxious to obtain more light on the subject of uniform divorce regulations, and to this end has introduced a constitutional amendment. It is as foilows: ART. Congress shall have power to Make a uniform law of marriage anu divorce. Some time ago he introduced a proposed amendment to the Constitution making polygamy or cohabitation between the sexes unlawful withia the jurisdiction of the -United States or of any State.

Mr. Springer says there has been much controversy as to the text which would be appropriate for an amendment aimed at polygamy, bat the amendmeut he has submitted gives power to Congress to pass a uniform law of marriage and divorce. Mr. Springer in an interview said: The laws of marriage and divorce passed by the several States are now conflicting. no two States having the same laws.

Many inconsistences anct absurdities are produced in practice and the question is often askee whether marriage itself is not a failure. A law uniform tnroughout the Urated States. carefully framed and rigidly enforceu, would produce most salutary results and remove all doubts as to the sacredness and efficiency of the marriage relation. I confess that I have not studied the subject in ad its bearirgs anti far-reaching consequences. There might in the controversy which is bound to follow my proposed amendment be objectors who would state that Congress would be entirely too officious by assuming exclusive jurisdiction over this subject.

But we can hardly Imagine that this would be done. Concurrent jurisdiction would undoubtedly be conferred on State courts to hear and determine all questions arising under any law that might be passed, and authority would be left in State authorities to grant licenses and solemnize marriages. I and all whotn I have conferred with on this subject have assumed that this authority would be exercised witti reason and a proper regard for the convenience of the people." Demooratic impertlaace.
