VVahiiinoton. Jan. 13. Senator Can
nun of Utah, today presented thu fol
lowing resolution to thu senate, mid it
wuh adopted :
"ltcsolved, Tliat tlio president is re
quested, if in hit) opinion it ia not in
compatible with the public in tercet, to
traiiHinit to tliu senate at his earliest
convenience u statement showing what
liieiiBiirurH uro in force by this govern
ment in the mlnnd of Cuba mid in thu
wuters contiguous thereto, to protect
the Hvuh, liberty nnd property of Ameri
can citizens now dwelling there.''
Anions the other measures reported to
the somite today wuh n pension appro
priation bill. It was jilaeed on thu cal
endar. At the cloau of the morning business,
the immigration hill, thu unfinished
IniaineHH, wuh taken up, and Cali'cry, of
Louisiana, was recognized for u apeech
in oppoaition to the muuBure. Caflery
said :
"The pending hill ia as mild 11 form of
antagonism to immigration ub uouditiona
will permit. The educational teat ih of
no very stringent character so far us the
tentH are concernud. It' ie, however, the
beginning oi u new departure. From
the foundation of the government we
huye invited the hurdy.veuturous people
of the CuucitHiuu race to our hospitable
HhorcH. The grand transformation of
thin continent from the wigwam of the
Huvage and the lair of the wild beast to
the myriads of homes of a happy, indue
trioiiH people, has been the work 0
white imuiigruntH ; yet we ure ubout to
smite the hand that has upbuilt uh; to
give u sting to grutitude.
"Many whohi) miceatora are foreign
born ure now clamoring for restricted
immigration. It is juat and proper to
hold this continent against the Mon
goliaiiH. Thu exclusion of Chinese ia
juatilled by a wise policy and by u prin
ciple of retaliation. Their doors have
been closed to the world, but their urro
gancu and aelfiahuesa ure not the' role
for wise nations to play in the world's
L'land theater,
"Not to admit to this country Irish
men, Swedes or Italians who cannot
read or write is Chinese, not American.
No danger to our institutions hue ever
nrised from admitting immigrants who
cannot read or write. This government
is thu outgrowth of thu labor of count
luss immigrants, who will be disquali
fied by thu pending bill. He who is
vigorous in body, strong in mind, honest
and indiiHtrioua ia a good citizen. No
immigrant, not 11 pauper or insane, dis
eased or criminal, should bo turned
away from our shores."
At the conclusion of Senator Cutlery '
speech the senate ut 11! :-0 p. in., 011 mo
lion of Chairman Davis, of the foreign
relations committee, went into execu
tive session.
Senator Fryo made a most Hniritod
speech in support of thu llawuiian
treaty, urging ui)on the senate the im
portance of accepting the islands while

Every Uonaewtfo Khonld Understand and

Herbs used in cookery, while they
may be purchased in the markets of the
larger cities of the United Stales, are
rare! .procurable in those of smaller
towns. To the average rtlrali.st.they am
unknown, or, if known, their use is not
understood. In first rate cool:er,
which is one of delicate combinations
and flavors, they ure absolutely indis
pensable, and their absence therefrom
is quickly detected by cultivated pal
iiios. Chives, tarrafrou, chevril, savory,
sorrel, etc., 111113' l,e grown with little
trouble either out of doors or in
boxes in the house. Pulverized dried
herbs that tire sold in bottles or tin an'
of little value. For tlmoriue; purpose.
they are hardly more effective than so
much dried dust. Sort el soup, on ae
coiuit of its pleasantly aeid llsnor, is
much in vogue in Europe. Here it is al
most entirely unknown, and is rarely
or ever served except in families of for
eign origin or at restaurants Ihct en
courage a KjH'cial clientele. Of all the
herbs only sage mid mint are iii uni
versal use with us. For thi boon wo
are indebted to the favor accorded
iusagei, and the popularity of H13
"mint julep."
Not long ago, when a clothing house
advertised n special reduction sale,
Jacob Shaw, manager of the electric
light worksiuEllieoUCity.Md., bought
uu out tit for his little boy. The jacket
included in the purchase was worn with
the suit until, in the course of a month
or so, the garment became unfit for
wear and hud to be put away. About
it thero was u most unnatural odor.
There was no living in the bamo room
with tho boy and that coat. The other
day Mrs. Shaw ventured to make an in
vestigation, the oflensiveuess of tho
garment having somewhat subsided,
when in tho coat's lining, securely
sowed in, were found the remains of u
viper suuko fifteen inches long. How
thu snake got thero is u mystery of
