The edict has gone out from Czar Reed that Legislation is to be railroaded through the House from this time on, in order to adjourn by the first of July, and the Republicans began this week by passing the Naval appropriation bill, and th& bill to recognize the United States District Courts and to appoint seventeen new Judges.

Under the new marriage law in Brazil widows cannot marry until their husbands hare been dead ten months.
