by prompt action,' were the instruc

ing friendly government of Hawaii were
to be promoted by prompt action in re
storing the monarchy is not telf-evi
deut."
ABSOLUTE DICTATION.
The report discusses tbe preaident's
peculiar poaition in impoeing upon the
queen aa a condition precedent to rein
atatement certain peremptory demanda
bb to amnesty, etc., which were tanta
mount to absolute dictation and com
pletely subversive of tbe independent
aovereignty of the government to be re
inatated.
"The ex-queen wae evidently distrust
ful of the influence or powers of the
president, and asked what assurances
she would have for the faithful carrying
out of tbe scheme on the part of the
administration. Whatever may have
been tha form of her request, the answer,
true but tardy, was telegraphed Willis
December 3rd, the day before the open
ing of congress: 'You will say tbe
president cannot use force without tbe
authority of congress.'
THE QUESTION AT IBSUE.
"There is no question here before ue
of annexation. No question as to tbe
propriety of Minister Stevens' action, for
aa to that, we know but one side, prepared
by an agent hostile to the administra
tion of wbich Stevens formed a part.
There is no ground of debate now aa to
whether the present Hawaiian govern
ment was rightly or wrongly established
12 months ago. The iaaus directly before
the house is whether to approve and
commend the course of tbe present ad
ministration as discloaed by itself. If
the president, without the consent of
the senate, can send a paramount dip
lomatic officer to supersede a minister,
leaving the latter only routine duties, he
may do it in (ireat Britain or in Ger
many as well as in the Hawaiian islands.
That officer, according to the president's
apologists, is only the preaident's com
missioner and not an officer in tbe dip
lomatic service of tbe United States.
Tbe same right, asserted here, to ap
point an ambassador under the name of
commissioner, would allow the president
to appoint any agent of his own without
conference with any other branch of tbe
government; to exercise judicial func
tions paramount to judges already in of
fice by and with the senate's consent.
A (SIGNIFICANT FACT.
"It is a significant fact that thus far
no resolution in either house ol con
gress has been introduced approving tbe
opinion of tbe secretary of state or en
dorsing the president's action. If the
administration's purpose is to reinstate
the queen, congress must carry it out,
for the president has at last shuffled his
policy off bis hands, to be acted on by
the legislative branch of our govern
ment. When tbe majority are prepared
to fulfill the president's behests it must
propose legislation. Until that is done
the country muet take for granted that
tbe president ia not to be approved by
bis party.
THE MINORITY 8.K801.11 HON.
"After • review and consideration ol
the eonrae of this administration as ap
pears from its own records, the minority
of your committee have no hesitation in
,_•'.,!.,; mling the adoption of the fol
lowing substitute for the resolution re
ported by the majority:
"Whereas, Executive communications
to congress disclose that the executive
department has been furniabing to the
minister plenipotentiary of the United
States secret instructions to conspire
with the representatives and agents of
• deposed and discarded Monarchy for
the overthrow of a friendly republican
government, duly recognized by all
civilized nations, and to which said
minister was accredited, and to which
his public instructions pledged the good
faith and sympathy of the president,
the government and the people of the
United States,
"Resolved, That it is the sense of this
bouse that any such intervention by the
executive of the United States, its civil
or military representatives or officers,
without the authority of Congress, is a
dangerous and unwarranted invasion of
the rights of the congress of the United
States and a violation of the law of na
tions ; trhd further, that the the manner
of euch attempted intervention by the
executive and the methods used are
unworthy of the executive department
of the United States, while the confessed
intent of such intervention is contrary
to the policy and tradition of the repub
lic and the Bpirit of the constitution."

MAY BE THE OLDEST MAN.
A Negro Who Has Records to Prove That
He Was Morn on Dec. 20, 1770.
Cole county can boast of the oldest
man in the state of Missouri and per
haps in the United States. His name
is Richard Hoops, and he is a negro.
He Uvea in a small shanty on the banks
of the Osage river at Osage City.
According to the records of his own
statements he was born in Chatham
county, N. C, on Dec. 20, 1770, and
consequently will be 128 years old on
the 20th of this month. He came to
Missouri with bin then master, John P.
Haydon, settling at Lane's Prairie, Gas
conade county. A few years later he
was transferred to the man whose name
he now bears and lived with him near
Vienna, Maries county, until tho eman
cipation of the slaves. Since that time
he has lived at Westphalia, but for the
past 25 yeara ho has made his home at
Osage City.
Hoops is remarkably well preserved
and li yes uloue iv bis shanty. He fishes
a great deal lor tUe big catfish that fre
quent the v> rj of the Osage and is
never happier tiian when he can catch
a big ono and make soup of its head.
He U still able to do some work, and it
was only a few years since that he con
tracted with a farmer in the vicinity of
his home to remove the stumps and
roots off a newly cleared tract of land.
He fulfilled his contrast, doing all the
work himself. His mind is still clear
on many of the ovents that happened to
ward the close of the last century, and
he recalls with great pride that he once
held the home of General Greene of
Revolutionary fame. He has the record
of his birth, and there is but little doubt
that he is tho oldest person in the coun
try.—Jefferson City Letter.
Citizen Train Is Happy.
"Speech is silver, but silence is gold

New York on ;» scalper's ticket and in
Mudison square resume my old occupa
tion of silence. I have had a good time
in Chicago. I have lived at a hotel and
had a nice room on the first floor, count
ing from the top of the building. Five
hundred servants of the hotel have been
at my beck and call. The mucilage
pot, pan and ink and stationery have
been supplied me, all for $1 a day.
Whon I am hungry, 1 go down to a

NATURAL GAS EXPLOSION.
A Terrible Catastrophe at Bast
Chicago.
Valparaiso, Ind., Dec. 30.—A little
after 4 o'clock tbia evening tbe pumping
station of the Indiana Natural Gas com
pany's pipe line at East Chicago waa
blown up, and will probably result in
tha death of at least eight parsons.
While workmen were engaged repairing
a leak in tbe pipe, tbe escaping gas
took fire from a lantern, and
an explosion took place which
tore the bnilding to pieces and threw
tbe workmen in every direction. Some
were thrown 50 feet and horribly
burned. One injured man, after regain
ing consciousness, put his hands
to his face, whan the flesh dropped
off, also the hair from his bead.
He then ran a quarter of a mile and
shut off tbe main pipe, tben fell in a
dead faint. It is thought at least seven
were fatally hurt.
A DRAMSELLER'S CRIME.
HE CREMATED HIS FAMILY AND
HIMSELF.
Threw a Lighter! Lamp at the Bed Con
taining Hit Wife and Baby—Sev
eral Other People In the
House Borned.
Omaha, Neb., Dec 31.—At 2:30 this
(Sunday) morning fire was discovered
in a two-story frame dwelling bouse at
614 South Fourteenth street. Although
in tbe business district and within easy
call of three engine houses, the house
was beyond saving when the first com
pany reached there. When the roof
fell, exposing the interior of the house
to view, three corpses were seen in the
fiery pit. Tbe bonis waa occupied by
John Cummings, a saloon-keeper. At
this time (2:4t) a.m.) the firemen are
busy cooling off tbe debris tbat a search
may be made for bodies. The police
have taken charge and have driven re
porters and spoliators beck from tbe
scene. It is their opinion that mnrder
waa committed and the houie set on
fire to cover up tha crime.
It develops tbat tbe fire wai tbe work
of Cummingi'own meannen. He went
into a room and deliberately dashed a
coal oil lamp against the bed in which
his wife and 1-year-old baby were sleep
ing and watched them burn. Before he
could escape he was overtaken by the
flames and burned himself. These facts
are gleaned from Tommy Fox, an 11
-year-old boy who, with his aged parents,
lived in the bnilding. He says Cum
mings came horns about 2 o'clock and
begun quarreling with bis wife. Fox
saw Cummings throw the lamp on the
bed and then shut and lock tbe door.
The boy tben ran to give tbe alarm.
William Natban, who lives next door,
says ha beard Mrs. Cummings scream
"My God, my baby is burning up!" and
then beard a blow and a heavy fall.
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Fox, an agad
couple who lived in the bnilding, are
missing, and are snpposed to be in the
debris. Tbe bodies of Mr. and Mrs.
Cummings have been discovered. W hat
moved Cummings to his awful deed is
unknown, but it is supposed to be the
resnlt of a drunken frenzy.
The dead are: John Cummings, sa
loon-keeper ; Mrs. John Cnmmings, his
wife; their 1-year-old child.

TUBERCULOSIS. —
Calculated to Cans* One-seventh of the
Total Human Mortality.
TV Anderson, the medical officer of
health of Dundee, delivered an inter
esting address recently, with a view of
quickening public interest on the im
portant topio of tuberculosis. After re
ferring to the history of our knowledge
of the specific germ and of the manner
of its propagation, he mentioned ,the
fact that tuberculosis had been calcu
lated to cause one-seventh of the total
mortality of tho human race. It was
remarkable that, notwithstanding this
important fact, little practical interest
had been taken in the matter by the
state, local authorities or individuals.
An assumed theory of Its unavoidable
nature seemed to lie at the root of this
baneful fatalism. Dr. Anderson main
tained that all tubercle bacilli were
derived from predecessors of the same
character, and pointed out the facility
with which this bacillus adhered to
moist surfaces and propagated itself un
der insanitary conditions such as pre
vailed in tho overcrowded houses of the
poor.
He also mentioned the opinion, held
by bacteriologists, that the expired
breath of those suffering from the dis
ease was comparatively innocuous, while
their sputum swarmed with bacilli and
on evaporation and desiccation was apt
to become a fruitful source of infection.
Hence the paramount necessity for a
systematic destruction of the sputum,
disinfection of apartments occupied by'
those suffering from tuberculosis, and
disinfection or destruction of articles of
clothing likely to retain the germ.
Referring to the large mortality from
tuberculosa disease, Dr. Anderson men
tioned, as an instance of public apathy
in tho matter of its prevention, the fact
that very few pooplo applied for disin
fection of material after death from this
cause in comparison with the number
of those who took such precautions in
the case of the various fevers. Passing
to the subject of tho disease in cattle,
he pointed out tho large mortality
among these animals from this cause,
and also the relation of milk supply to
infant mortality from tuberculosis.
The proportion of deaths from this
cause in children under 5 years of age
in Dundee wus found to be 1 in
11. All these facts pointed to the ne
cessity for the householder to safe
guard his own interests. Dr. Anderson
concluded his instructive address by
mentioning in detail tho preventive and
disinfectant measures necessary to se
cure the highest possible immunity from
the scourge.—Ltucet.
Cheap and Dangerous Toothbrushes.
An operation for appondicitis upon a
patient living in this state revealed the
(act that the disorder was due to, the
presence of tooth brush bristles,
"('heap tooth brushes," remarked the
Albany surgeon who had charge of the
case, "are responsible for many ob
scure throat, stomach and intestinal
ailments. The bristles are only glued
on nnd come off by the half dozen when
wet and brought in contact with the

ever tho dream occurs, some member of
the family dies shortly afterward. It
is not connected with previous knowl

BELIEVERS IN WITCHCRAFT.
SUaldanU or mm Ohio ViU«ce Hold Mr.
Cmlp Culpable For Mysterious Doings.
The residents of Hart's Corners, a
farming communis..• 10 miles east of
this city, are agog over the doings of a
witch. Severn! days ago a young farm
er named Howard Hughea dog a well
upon a small hill, and when he had got
to what he believed to be a sufficient
tepth, much to his surprise, no water
ippeared. He cogitated upon the mat
ter, and being a Arm believer in witches
and hobgoblins concluded that some
poison had oust a spell upon his land.
Within the limits of this city lives a
Dr. Hoff, an octogenarian, who deals in
herbs and claims supernatural powers.
To this strange old man Hughes repair
id and hired him to go down to his
place and locate the trouble. Hoff went
with him, and building a Are threw
some of his powders into it, and while
the fire burned consulted the spirits
through a powwow performance. He
told Hughea that the absence of water
in bis well was due to a neighbor
aamed Cnlp, whp was a wleard, with
a poisonous hnutth «nd an evil rye, and
that the well would remain dry until
he (Cnlp) was dead. Since the old
witch doctor revealed this startling in
formation the Hughes and a dozen other
families who believe in witchcraft have
ceased all intercourse with Culp and
avoid him as they would the evil one.
The affair has caused such a stir that
(he matter resolved itself into a special
meeting held in the Methodist church
of the village, to which all these people
belong. The Rev. J. E. Hollister of
this city, the pastor of the church, pie
lided and called upon Hughes and his
followers to disavow witchcraft and
treat Cnlp as a brother or leave the
church. This they refused to do, and
a church trial will result.
Last spring Miss Sadie Loop, a mem
ber of the church, was expelled at a
church trial for asserting that Culp was
a wizard, and it was thought at that
time that the ridiculous superstition
bad been stamped out.—Alliance (O.)
