They Wanted Blood.
White a fair whs being held recently j
In a small .town in Belgium the owner
of n menagerie announced that one of
the villagers, who was known to pos
sess great courage, would enter that
evening a cage containing two lions
and would remain there fifteen min
utes.
When this was noised abroad, every
one determined to witness the novel
sight,^and as a result there were sev
eral hundred persons in front of the
lions' cage when the performance be
gan. fjfjg
At a signal from the owner the cour
ageous villager entered the cage and
stood watching the lions. They, how
ever, took not fbe slightest notice of
him, mid nfter the fifteen minutes had
expired he left the cage. As he did so
a storm of hisses greeted him, and the
next moment" such an uproar arose
that the owner summoned the police
and the entertainment Came to an end.
The fact was the people expected
that the lions would attack the vil
lager aud they ^*ere disappointed be
cause no blood had been shed.
"Yet it is Exceedingly probable," says
a French writer, "that if one of the
lions had escaped from the cage this
blood thirsty crowd would have been
terrified almost to death."

You think you are bilious. Well, 1
should think you would be! What did
you expect your stouiai4l and liver
could stand? You ought to be thank-[
ful that you got off with simply being
bilious. The wohder is that you have
any stomnch or liver left at all. says
Medical Talk.
What would I advlsu? Well. In or
der to stir up your liver a little and
give you a slight gymnastic exercise 1
would advise 3*011 to go and find the
doctor who gave you 100 grains of
quinine and give him a good licking.
Hit him with your bunds. Don't hit
with a club or shoot him. Just use
your open hand. After you have done
this right I would quit using tobacco,
if not entirely at l*?ast nearly so, say
a little after supper each day. Use no
alcoholic stimulants of any sort. I-et
your diet be simple and plain. Avoid
| excesses. . Avoid everything fried dur
ing the hot season. Eat much fruit; |
|drink much water. Take long nights',
sleep. Behave yourself. Keep away j
ifrom the doctors. J

IMMIGRATION BILL
Senate Adopts All Committee
Amendments Except One
Educational Test.
HONOR MEMORY OF MR. REED.
House Pays a Remarkable Tribute tc
Former Speaker ? Unanimously
Adopts Resolutions and Then Ad
journs for the Day. m
. Washington. .Dec. 9.?The senate
yesterday adopted all the committee
amendments to the immigration bill
with the exception of one prescribing
an educational test, anil also the ac
tion of the committee in striking out
section 36, prohibiting the sale of in
toxicants within the capitol building
and then laid aside the bill until to
day to pass a number of unobjected
pension bills.
The amendment fixing a $3-head j
tax on each Immigrant coming Into !
the United btates furnished the prln-i
clpal topic for debate. Mr. Gallinger |
Insisted that there was less necessity j
for it now than there was a year ago
but it was adopted without division J
A new amendment was added, design- |
ed to stop the alleged perjury on the
part of persons seeking admission to
the United States and committee
amendment making the head tax a
lien on the property of the transpor
tation lines bringing immigrants to
the United States, was stricken out
An amendment also was agreed to
exempting from the tax aliens in
transit through the United States anil
aliens once admitted and who have
paid the tax. At 4:20 p. in. the sen
ate went into executive session, and
at 4:4o adjourned.
, -?? In the House.
Washington. Dec 9.?The house yes
terday paid a remarkable tribute to
tho memory of ex-Speaker Thomas B.
Reed. His death had created a pro
found impression and there was a uni
versal desire among the members that
?the house show a signal mark of re
spect to his memory. For the house
to take action on the death of a for- !
mer member had only three prece-.
dents in its history, namely, on tho J
occasions of the death of Benton
Blaine and Alexander Stephens, when !
the house adopted resolutions and ad
journed out respect to their mem |
ories. It was decided to follow theso
precedents in the case of Mr. Reed j
The chaplain at tne opening of the?
session paid a feeling reference to the I
death of the ex-speaker. No business 1
was transacted beyond the formal,
reading of two messages from tbel
president and an arraugement to post
pone the special order for yesterday? I
the London dock charge bill?until to
day. |
Mr. Sherman (N. Y.) then, amid
profound silence, aroso and in a few ;
feeling remarks ofTered the resolu
tions.
When the reading of the resolutions
had been concluded Speaker Render
eon asked if there was objection to
their prosent consideration. The si
lence remained unbroken. The resolu-'
tlons were then unanimously adopted
and accordingly at 12:15 the speaker
declared the house adjourned out of
rcspect to the memory of Mr. Reed.

Capital, Labor^and the Publlo,
Meet in Convention. iMjljj
New York, Dec. 9.?On a platform
of harmony, conciliation and mutual
helpfulness world famous leaders of
capital and labor met yesterday* in the
rooms of the board of trade and" trans j
portation for a three days* session of
the industrial department of the Na
tional Civic Federation. Charles
Francis Adams was the leading"
speaker and gave publicity of facts,
as to the best solution of the 1aSov.,
problem. ? .
Seldom has a more representative"
body; been welcomed"*?o_ its delibera-*
llons in New "York. Senatdr Hanna>
presided. Before he took the chair
he had warmly greeted John Mitcheft ,
seizing his hand and addressing*^*!
with a hearty "Hello, John." v?
Of the members of the executive
commlttce who were present during
either the morning or afternoon ses
sion there were these representatives
of the employers: United States Sen
ator Hanna. S. R. Calloway, H. H
Vreeland, Lewis Nixon, James A
Chambers, of Pittsburg, president of
the American Window Glass company^
and Marcus Marks, president of the
National Association of Clothing Man
ufacturers.
For the public there were present:
Charles Francis Adams. Archbishop
Ireland, Cornelius N. Bliss, Oscar ^
Strauss. Bishop Potter,. John G. Mil
burn, John J. McCook and Charles Ji
Bonaparte.
On the part of the wage earners
were present aamuei Gompers, John
Mitchell. Theodore Shaffer, Daniel J(
Keefe, James M. Lynch, James O'Con
nell and Harry White, general secre
tary of the United Garment Workers
of America.
Senator Hanna called the session to
ord??r and made no address of wel
come.
Mayor Low made an address of wel
come on behalf of the city.
At the afternoon session Archbishop
Ireland made an address, In which ho
said the year now almost gone had
con Armed the originators of the Civic
Federation In their conviction that
they were engaged in a great and
salutary work, that of striving to bring
together, to put face to face, capital
and labor, so that the one could under
stand the lights of the other, so that
the one would be willing to perform
Its own duty toward the other, and
that in this manner industrial peace
should be made to reign over the
country.
G. C. Sykes. of Chicago, former sec
retary of the street railway commis
sion of that city, spoke on the subject
of arbitration.
Charles Francis Adams, of Boston
discussed the status of the Civic Fed
eratlon before the country and argued
that compulsory arbitration Is some
thing that vill not suit the America**
mind.
Mr. Adams has prepared a bill
whlcli?_he says, can be passed by any
state or by congress, giving the fed
eratlon such powers, but without the
pdded authority of making Its verdict
binding on both sides in dispute, be
lievlng that such powers would be n
hindrance rather than a help.
