Washington, July 2nd, 1880.
Daring the week the wily Stnitor
from Vermont hat shown more than
s usual tendency towards new do.
pert u res. There have been occasion
al Edmunds' sensations at the Capitol
ever since the Senators' ambition
turned squarely towards the White
House, but three freaks In the same
week are something extraordinary.
In the first place Mr. Edmunds
created a real aensatlon by appearing
in the galleries of the Senate Cham,
bar aa the escort of a bridal couple
from his state. He waa net er seen
with a plain, quiet constituent before,
and It was regarded es positive proof
that hla fences are rickety this time,
and that his Senatorial contest la
real. Very few Senators dare to ig
nore the claims made upon them by
their constituents as Edmunds has
done, but be baa never had any real
opposition to his re-election until
now. He aat by this honeymoon
couple for quite a while, pointed out
to them the various Senator., and
even graciously explained to them
some of the features of the debate,
while the Senators on tho floor ex
changed stgoiflcnat glances over kit
unparalleled devotion.
Mr. Edmunds' next new departure
was the now attitude he easumod on
the subject ot the Senate's Jurisdic
tion ever the President's nominations
to office, and his suspensions and re
movals from office. He Introduced a
bill in the Senate which proposes to
give the President absolute power to
make all the appointments to office
which now he can make only "by
and with the advice snd c nent of
the Senate." According to this bill
the Senate is to have nothing what
ever to do In the future with either
appointments or removals. There
will be no more need f ir executive
sessions, either secret or open.
The Senator created a third sensa
tion by objecting to a second reading
of ths joint resolution, which had pre
viously passed the House, to provide
for the expenditures of the Govern,
ment for the next ten days following
the last day of June, the end of the
fiscal jesr. This caused an unusual
outlook for the first day of the new
fiscal year, and the Executive De
partments opeoed In consequence on
the first day of July, without funds
for the payment of any of their em
ployes. Tbls is an unprecedented emer.
irency, so far as I know," 84 Id TJ. 8.
Treasurer Jordan. Mo new business
of any kind can be done, no disburse
ments can be made, and unless aell in
be taken before the end of July, no
Government official, not even the
President, can get bis months salary.
Senator Edmund's purpose was to
emphaaixe and call public attention
to the repeated failures of appropris.
tion bills to reach the Senile in time
for dne deliberation and aea m ibis
action before ihe end of tho fl-cal
j oara purpose which Is approved
by both the Democrats and Republi
can of the Senate,
Under the law Which forbid any
Department to expend money In any
fiscal year in excess of appropriations,
or to involve the Qoverome' t in aoy
contract for the future payment of
money In exeess of appropriations,
t is questionable whether the heads
of Departments hsve the right to ac
cept the services of their employes
with an understanding that they are
to be compensated when Congress
makes tho appropriation. The ques
tion never came up bef ;re, but It is
probable the Senate will at once pass
the omergency resolution passed by
he House and all will be right again.
The vetoing of the pension bills
has met with almost unanimous ap
proval from the Democrats ! Con
gress, the only criticisms coming
from the Republicans. The Presi
dent has been attacked by Republl.
cans in both houses of Congress dur
ing the wfk for whi they call viola
lions of tho Civil Service pretensions.
Senator Hoar made quite a vituper
ative speech and IngalU, of Kansas,
attempted, as usual, high fiewo sar
casm. This led Senator Cockrell, 0f Mo.,
to reply that the taunts fell harm
less. The Administration needed no
defender in the Senate. The people
of the United States would live to
bend their knees In thankfulness that
Grover Cleveland had become Presi
dent. He was an honest, brave, true
man and he wa doing all that any
one mortal being could do to give the
people an honest,fearless, economical
and Constitutional Administration.
Irate Senator Hear declared that
President Cleveland had not attempt
ed to keep the pledges which pre
ceded and followed his election. Bje
thought h(s promotion of party and
partisan Interests bad been equal to
that of Van Buren and Pierce.

We ar CO rail from Aaklaod, though

By chance, on the Fourth, we had a

country giving concerts. Their musio
is classical, grand, hard to surpassing

FRIDAY, JULY 88,
s-MIVBMt ItllM.
One of the first things that happens
(o a Chinese baby boy after he la born
is to be shaved. A barber ceraes with
a razor, and all the hair Is shaved off
the poor little fellow' tender scalp.
After that hi by has got to go to the
barber for his shave, Just a a grown
mm with n bcird might go In this
country : but he never seems to en
riy it, and (tries pitifully every time
SF
the mIh rp razor mows dowo the hair.
After awhile, wheu the hair begins
Mgrow thicker, the head is not shaved
all over, but Is left untouched In spots,
Juit as they think will took pretty.
Sometimes there will be three tufta,
each a big round as a sliver dollar,
one just ovr the middle of tbe fore
head and one over esoli ear. When
the hair grows long enough In these
tufta It is braided and tied with bright
cord, and then baby looks funny
enough to a foreigner, for each little
braid stands stiffly up for about two
inches, and then lone over. The
braids look like norm on his head
and holea are cut In his green and
red cap to let the borne come through.
When he growa elder he la allowed
to wear a queue like the men.
When baby is about a month old
be la given his first name, or milk
name, ea the Chineee call it. A feast
Is prepared, the friends are called In,
and papa gives baby his name. This
name Is used only until he Is reedy
to go te school, when a new name is
given him, snd another feast Is offer
ed to the friends. The names given
to tbe boys are odd to us, but tbsy
seem sll right to them. Think of be
ing called Ink Grinder or Promising
Study ! But even this name la not
kept, for when the boy grows up snd
is married he take new name,
which he keeps for the rest of his
life. If baby's ptpt Is rich, baby is
well taksn cars of, carried about ten.
deriy and amused to his heart's con-.
t'-nt ; but If papa be poor then the
boy, very likely, wilt be tied to so
older sister's bsck with s broad piece
of cloth, so that his ler- dangle down
by her aldei and bi ; r little head
wabble a be. t vt tho ip of the
doth as If hU nsK'k w-re in tie of
Indian rubber. The little nurse goes
about her work or run at ber play,
sod never eeme to give thought
to her tittle brother snd his bobbing
head, aod be doe not seem to rolnd
t, for when It looks as if his head
mutt almost be abaken off, he, very
ikely, is ft asleep.
If baby happens to live on a bo as
a great maoy hundred thousand Ntsons
i a. Chins do, bis mamma tie a big
gourd oo bi baek, so that be caooot
drown if he fall. overloard,or he is tied
by a rope to aome part of tbe boat. In
summer baby wears aa little clothing aa
possible, but in winter it is jnst tbe
other way ; be wears all the clothing
that can be put up m him. Rxoept io
the northern part of Chiua.uear Parkin,
where it is bitterly oild is winter, the
Chinese people do not have fires in their
honsM, even wbm it taodj enough to
frees tbe water into ice. Pair afier
pair ot t rooters is put on haby legs,
end jacket after jseket on hi body,
until hy the time b is clai warmly
enough be is quite sa broad aa he is
long, snd bis little arms stick straight
out from bin sides, so that be waddlM
about, provided bo can move at all,
looking like a reJ and green pillow with
a ball on top, aod with smaller pillows
on each side wbera the arm- are It
iaekM no difference to bim tben bow
cold it is, and ha sits in tbe open air on
bis little bamboo stool, with noM and
obeeks very red, and bis body as warm
as toast.
All this has Iteon about boy babies,
beeanse in China girl babies are not
thought muoh of, aud consequently all
tbe good tiuyM oome to tb boys.
A ilOtTit K.I.VI ACT.
Dog stories are always in order, pro
vided tbey are true. A gentleman in a
Gduutry town owns a hue specimen of
the spauiel breed, which is very fond of
ohildree, and when any little ones visit
his master's house constitutes iimself
their compa-iion, playmate aud guar
diau. A shirt time ago a lady with an
infant visited- the gentleman, and in
the course of tie day the child was laid
on a pillow on the floor to amuse itself
for a time. The dog took his place
near the little one, as BSSal. The day
waa hot and tbe flies bad, and they
made the baby the target of frequent
attacks, 't'hia rendered her restless.
Doggie watched ber for a few minutes,
and then walking close up with his
nose or paw drove away every fly aa
soon as it lit on the baby's fee, and
did it so gently, too, as not to distrub
her in the least. Tha dag's actions
attracted the attention of the mother
and others, who weto filled as
tonishment at hk tLoughlful kindness.

Tbis plain question t roes horns to
every housekeeper. We sll desks
pureani wnolesotos food, sod this
cannot he had with ths ass of im
pure or poisonous bskiag powder.
There can bs p,o longer a question
that all the cheaper, lower grsd of
baking powders contain sithsr slum,
lime or phophtic scld. As loth aa
we may bs to admit so much against
what msy hsve been some of our
household god-, there can be no gain-
sayjug ths unanimous testimooy of
th official chemist. Indeed, no I.
yet seem to find no baking powder
entirely free from soma one of thsss
object ioosble ingredient except ths
it yl, and that they report ss chem
leaily pore. Ws And soma of ths
baking powder advertised a pars,
to contain, under ths tests of Profs,
('handler, Habirahaw aod ethers,
nearly twelve per cent, of Urns, wails
other are made from alum with no
cream of tartar. This, wo presume
aceounia for ihelr lack of leavening
power ua sometimes complained of
by the cook, and for tue bitter taste
found in ths biscuit ao frequently
complained of by ourselves.
But aside from tho inferiority of
the work doss by thsse powders, ths
physiologist ensure us that lime aod
alum taken into tho a) stem in such
quantifies as this are injurious. They
are n t decomposed by heat nor dis
solved in mixing or biking. They
go with the bread, therefore, Into ihe
stomach, where their physiological
effec' are indigestion, dyapepsla, or
worse evils.
The question naturally arhte, why
do theae cheap baking pnwder mak
ers use these thing ? Alum is three
cents a pound, lime still cheaper,
while cream of tartar con thirty, five
or forty. The reasons for the chem
ical purity of the Keyal Baking Pow
der were recently given in ths Nsw
York Times in an interesting descrip
tion of a new method for refining
argots, or crude cream of tartar. It
seems that It is only uuder this pro
cess that cream of tartar can be freed
from ths lime natural to it and ren
dered chemically pure ; that the
patents and plant for this cost the
Royal Baking Powder Company about
half a million dollars, and that they
maintain exclusive control cf ths
righ
Prof. McMurtrle, late chief chmlst
of the Department of Agrlculturo at
Washington, D. C, io the interests
sf commerce, made an examination
sf this process, and reported upon the
results attained io the refined oream
of tartar. The following extract from
Uls report would aeein to answer the
question repeated at the head of this
article, and which la so frequently
propounded by ths housekeeper :
"I have examined cream of tartar
used by the Royal Baking Powder
Company in the manufacture of their
baking powder, and find it to ho per
fectly pure, and free fromllmoln any
form. Ths chemical tests to which
have submitted the Royal Baking
Powder prove it perfectly healthful,
and free from every deleterious sub
stance," Cold tea is tbe best liquid tor clean

THE MBlirAS FftM SILL
This bill pxwed the Senate last Mon
day, having previously passed the house.
The President will very likely approve
it. The bill directs tbe Secretary of I he
interior to place on the (tension roll the
names of sumviog olucers, enlisted
mn,inclniliog marines a id tualitia aod
volunteers, whe, being duly enlisted,
actually served sixty days with tbe ar
my or navy of tbe United States in
Mxioo or on tka ooasta or frontier
thereof, or en route thereto, during tbe
war with that nation ; or who were
actively iig3tl in hsttlea of aaid war,
aod wvre bonomMy discharged j and Io
aurriing widews, provided that such
widows htvfi rsj remarried : and pro
vided that eeiy such otlioei, eultated
mau or widow who is or may become 60
year of age. and who is or may become
subject to any disability or dependence
equivalent to aome cause recognized by
the pension laws as sufficient reason for
a pension, aball be entitled to the ben
efit of this act, except where such dis
ability or 'ii-peudenco was incurred in
aiding or nbetting tbe late rebellion.
The pensions are to be $3 per month,
payable only after the passage of thi
act. The law ia not applicable to per
oas already receiving peo&hns st or
over that rate, and where persons en
titled under this law are already rci r
ing pensions less than $8 a month pen
sions shall only be fur the difference tip
to $8.
Public wster troughs, it is claimed,
are places at which infectious diseases
are spread ; hence the water should id
ways be flowing icv them instead it
turning it on only whan wanted.
A Wise Rerorm.
Tbe habit of adm inisterinaj quinine n
powerful doses, aa an antidote to malarial
maladies, was once dangerously oommoa,
Happily this practice has undergone s
wide reform, Not only tbe public, b it
Drofeaelonal men have adopted, not whol
ly, of course, but largely , Hos tetter 'a
Stomach Bitters as a safe botanic substi
tute for the pernlolona alkaloid, The con
sequenoes of this change are most Import
ant. Now fever and ague sufferers k
oared formerly tbeir complaints wej-e
only for tbe time relieved, er half cured
the remedy eventually failing to produce
any appreciable effect, exo.pt the dosoa
were increased. A course of the Bitters,
persistently followed, breaks up the worst
attacks and prevents their return. The
evidence in favor of this sterling specific
and household medicine Is of no ambhr-
i uous oharacter, but positive and satisfac
tory, and tbe sources whence it prooeext
ft re very numerous,
