Washington, March 26. The Re
publicans of the ways and means com
mittee are still struggling with their
bill to-day. They have restored hides
and raw silk to the free list, but no
change has been made in sugar or
wool. The great fight is now over the
sugar question, thongh there are a
hundred and one other little items io
annoy them. It is believed that there
will have io be some change in the
sugar schedule from that first an
nounced. The sugar men are growing
confident and express the opinion that
the cut will not be below 2."5 per cent.
The committee will probably go back
to the specific form or duty whether
or not thev make any changes.

at Plattsmoulh, Nebraska:
Sii:: The department is in receipt
of your letter of the 10th inst
Further in relation to the question
submitted in your letter of the 17th
ult whether yon can send to China
for your wife and children. You state
that yon intend to become a citizen
of the United States, and have made
declaration of such intention, and you
intimate that yon are wealthy, but you
fail to answer the question proposed
to yon in the department's letter of
the "1st inst, as to the nature of yonr
occupation in this country. From the
endorsement of the district judge
S. M. Chapman on your letter, it ap
pears that you are engaged in the
laundry business, but such occupation
does not exclude you from the class or
laborers nor can you claim immunity
for your relatives from the Chinese re
striction acts by reason of any inten
tion to become a citizen of the
United States, since the law,
act of May G, 18S2 prohibits the ad
mission of any Chinese persons to cit
izenship. As your wife and children do
not appear to have resided in the
United States, they cannot be ad
mitted to entry other than upon the
production of a certificate from the
Chinese government declaring them
to be persons other than laborers, the
certificate being under law sole evi
dence permissible to establish the
right of entry into the United States.

for the admission of New Mexico and
Arizona as states and appoint a sub
committee of five to examine the con

Democrats regard this action as indefi

these territories. The Republicans

for a new company, which will have
all the valuable rights and franchises
of the present Oregon transcontinental.
Villard is much impressed with the
great possibilities of electricity and one
of the prime objects of the now company
will be furnishing money to the Edi
son company and other electrical en
terprises in which Villard and his
friends are interested. The new com
pany will still retain their interests in
the Northern Pacific and act as a
banker for that concern and dependent
corporations. It is possible that a

Sax Fbaxcisco, March 26. Joe
Choynski, who made such a deter
mined stand in the fight with Jim
Corbett last summer, and Billy Wil
son, a colored heavy weight from St
Paul, met at the Golden Gate club
this evening for a finish fight for a
$1,500 purse of which $250 went
to the loser. Wilson came
with an unbroken record, and was ex
pected to make a hot battle with
Choynski, who is game and a clever
fighter. Wilson weighed 183 and was
in good condition. Choynski was in
perfect trim at 169. Mike Lucie was
the referee. In the first Wilson
showed himself remarkably quick, and
started to force Joe. The latter
would either retreat or duck and
suddenly turning drove his heavy
right on Wilson's nose which started
it to bleeding. He repeated this a
few times when Wilson settled down
a bit and was badly jabbed.
and towards the end of the round
was knocked down with a heavy one
on his mouth and went to his corner
in bad shape.
Kound 'z Wilson came up spry
again but was very cautious. Choynski
was the first to lead, when Wilson
ducked and throwing out his right
shoulder threw Joe heavily. He
was up in a moment and kept jabbing
away on Wilson's bleeding nose.
Wilson seemed to lose heart at the
poor showing ho was making, being
almost unable to touch Choynski.
Joe finally got in a heavy smash on
Wilson's mouth, which took him off
his feet, his head rebounding from
the floor, where he lay until counted
out.

Are Single Folks Happiest?
Is a single person more likely to be
happy than a double one? Are bach
elors and maids happier than married
folk? It is a big question, and per
haps will find as many voices in the
negative as in uie ainrmauve. xne
single person cannot be as unhappy as
tne uouoie one, and aitnougn tne oiiss
of married iife, such as I at first de
scribed, is great; so is, also, the mis
ery of an ill-assorted or disastrous
marriage. The lonelines of a loving
heart is hard to bear, and the
longing for protecting and sympathetic
companionshp is verv sorrowful and
depressing, but the burden of en
forced companionship with a husband
who has become on object of aversion
and terror, is a great deal harder to
bear, and the slavery of dependence
upon an unwilling and grudging
master is far more bitter and unen
durable. It is, after all, a good deal
like gambling. You stake your dol
lar, and you may win five, or you may
lose all. Probably the wisest plan,
certainly tho most obvious advice is:
Don't put up your dollar! Mrs.

have a sweetheart brave enough to go
out and kill wild animals, the skins of
which she may use to keep her pretty
self warm. Women to-day ore just as

used to be sure of it before the dude,
