line of the Proposed Washington, IX March of President MeKintey's first official acts will be the issuance of a proclamation caJline the Congress to meet in extra session. While Mr. McKinley has not yet publicly announced the date on which he will, convene the new Congress, it is the understanding of Chairman Dinglyy of the House committee on ways and means and of other members of both houses vitally interested in knowing the date, tuat it wfll meet on Monday, March ID. The primary purpose of the extra session is to pass the new tariff bill. In this first message to Congress President McKinley is expected to devote himself almost exclusively to the condition of the treasury and to the necessity of speedily enacting legislation which will increase, the revenues to meet the expenditures of the government.

He will, of course, work in considerable talk about protection. The general expectation among prominent Republicans is that the new President will have very little to say in his first message about monetary reform, though he may talk in a general way about international agreements and monetary conferences. As soon as the committee on ways and means has been in its Republican membership it is expected to be the same as the present Chairman Dingier will lay the tariff bill before it. The Democratic members will demand time for the consideration of the bill and the preparation of a minority report, but Mr. Oingley will probably restrict them to about a week.

Then the bill will be reported to the House and a special order for its consideration will be adopted. It is expected that this order will allow about two weeks for debate. The House will then pass the bill and send it over to the Senate, where the troubles of the tariff bill will begin, and it might be impossible to pass it at all. but for the fact that many of the Democrats and Populists are disused to give the Republicans every opportunity to carry out their legislative programme. The Senate will exercise to the full its right to amend the bill, and it is probable that this, as were the last three tariff bills, will be practically made by the Senate.

It is the hope of the Republican lenders that the bill may become a law and the extra session adjourn by June. Burled Under an Had to Tunnel Through Snow. London. March special from Paris says that the monastery of St. Bernard has been partially destroyed by nn avalanche.

Prealdent Cleveland and His Wife will Not Separate.

Washington.

D. March Tliurber, secretary to the President emphatically denies the truth of the statement cabled from London that a separation had been arranged tvtween the President and Mrs. Cleveland. "Such accusations are vicious calumnies and outrageous lies." said he. "This insinuation has been in circulation for years, and repeatedly pronounced false.

The relations existing" between the President and Mrs. Cleveland are of the most pleasant character. Her absence from the city is only temporary, and she will return prior to the inauguration ceremonies, and afterward accompany Mr. Cleveland to their new home in Princeton." CROPS IN FOREIGN LANDS.

Our readers will be glad to know that the new botanical discovery, Alkavis, has proved an assured cure for all diseases caused by Uric acid in the blood, or by disordered action of the Kidneys or urinary organs. It is a wonderful discovery, with a record of 1200 hospital cures in 30 days. It acts directly upon the blood and kidneys, and it a true specific, just as quinine is in malaria.

Rev. W. B. Moore, D. of Washington, testifies in the New York Christian Witness that Alknvis completely cured him of Kidney and bladder diseases of many years' standing.

Many ladies also testify to its curative powers in disorders peculiar to womanhood. So far the Church Sidney Cure Company, 'No. 418 Fourth Avenue, New York, are the only importers of this new remedy, and they are so anxious to prove its value that for the sake of introduction they will send a free treatment of Alkavis prepaid by mail to every reader of the Weekly Wisconsin who is a Sufferer from any form of Kidney or Bladder disorder, Brighfs Disease, Rheumatism, Dropsy, Gravel Pain in Back, Female Complaints, or other affliction due to improper action of the Kidneys or Urinary Organs.

and 26,032.000 on January 1. ISlKi. The estimated average production per acre of ten bushels will result, under favorable circumstances, in a crop of SOO.OOO bushels, a quantity Insufficient to meet domestic requirements. British bop official estimates of last year's hon crop show a product of 45S.1SS cwts In 1898, as compared with 533.39G cwts In 1S93, 636.SJ6 cwts In 1894 cwts In 1893. the average annual production for the four years being 514,590 cwts, which represents Just about the overage annual consumption.

The average annual importation of 200,000 cwts may be said, therefore, to represent a surplus, which will account for the persistently disappointing market and the lone prevailing low prices.

Decayed Blood Is Deadly.

One of the deadliest poisons known to the world is nothing more than decayed human blood. The famous poisoned swords of the East are steeped in them, and so virulent is the venom that the merest scratch will produce death.

Too much mnch much worry.

Too little time to eat and little erne to recreate and little thought care for health. These are the keynotes of the dance of ill-health. The man who dances to them is soon in the grasp of general ill-health, and will speedily be in the relentless clutch of some fetal malady. It nervous exhaustion or prostration; some wasting deadly consumption, or almost any ailment in the category of human flls. There is a sure, speedy, ana permanent remedy at hand.
