turns on the pronoun "I." "What aluU4-4

about *he falling of the prison, but the fall

Again, I remark, 1 eluiripqeri/.e this ques

vory different place from what it w<w? onea j

Home people ?ay that they "would not

Death is bo oruel, ho devouring, so robot
less, that when it swallows Up our love I

oan oarry our lorn and blooding hearts. We ?
need a balsam better Hutu anything lost

Christ can tako the bruised and put It
In His bosom, hushing It with the lullaby of
hoavon. O brothorl 0 sister! The i?rnvc
stono will novor bo lifted from your hea-t

your friends, or tho porsooutluu !>( ,you>: one
mlas, or the overthrow of your worldly ?v<

you out to ask this stupendous question o'
my text? t.
But I remark again, I ohurueteri.'.o tin f
question of tho agitated jail keeper ns li'i^iy,
urgejii and inunedlate. lio put it <>n ?
run. lly tho light of bis t >reh as he gu^' to j
look for tho npoftlos, behold his fn -q, n?>r tim :
Htartle<l look and Aeij the ofirnesin>MiH. No '
ono can doubt by that look that tho man Is j
in earnest. He must have that question an
Hworod beforo the oarth stops rooking, ??t j
perhaps ho will never have It answered at
all. Is that the way, my brother, my ttl&ter, :
you are putting this question? Is It on the
run? Is It hasty? Is It urgent? Is It iuime- i
dlate? If It Is uot, it will not bo answered, |
That Is the only kind of question that is an- >
h we rod. It Is tho urgent and lmtne<liaie I
(pus! Ion of the goHpol t'hrist tinswors. A j
great many are asking this question, but j
they drawl it out, and there is ludiffcren ^
in their manner, as if they do not mean it.
Make It an urgent question and then j on
will have it answered before nu hour passes,
b fore a mlnuto passas. Whtui a man with

After three and n half hour*' d?bAte the
Hound of Representatives passed a tariff bill t
affecting eve*? whyilule and nitwit cvflry
article on which customs taxation I* l#vl#d,
with the exception of sugar. i
?.9 soon n? Mr. Dlngloy had reported the
tariff Mil from the Ways and Means Commit
tee Mr. Crisp wan reoognl/.ed. Ho com
plained that the minority of the oommlttce
had had no opportunity of preiVariug and
submit ting thulr view*. Tho minority had
tt?k,od for time to obtain estimates from the
Treasury Department at to tho offoot of the
proposed measure and had been refused.
Then the minority had nsked for a renson
able time to prepare a minority report, and
that was also refused.
Mr. Henderson then reported from tho
Coram Ittoo on Rulos the rule providing for
tho vote ou tho tariff bill at 5 cVock p. m.
Mr. Crisp oblcoted to tho rule a? prevoatlng
tho conslderat'on of what hecallod "a gon
oral tariff bill.0 Tho rule was agreed to by
u vote of 218 to 89, Messrs. Connolly, ol
Illinois: Iloluor, of Pennsylvania; I.inno/,
f.t North Carolina* and W liber, of Now York,
Republicans, voting "no" with the Domo
erats. . ,,
Iii the debate whloh followed the reallng
of tho luriff bill Republicans arguod from
tho standpoint that an inoroaao of revenue
by an increase of customs taxation was tho
ono thing needed to euro tho evils tho J resi
dent had pointed out. Damoorats took the
ground that tho Treasury hud plenty of
mouey to meet all expenditures, and de
nounced tho proposal to ineroaso taxation.
Tarty spirit rnn high at times, and ?nchsido
Indulged in many partisan flings at tho
other. . , i,
Tho bill was road a third timo, and on tho
question of its passage tho yeas and nays
were oallod, resulting? Yejirf, 205; nays,
HI It was a strlot nartv vote, ,
except that the eight Populists dl- j
vldod ovonlv, Messrs. Baker, Bell. Kem ami
Stroud voting nay with the Democrats,
Moss&. Howard, Nowlands, Hhufford and
Skinner voting yea with tho Republicans.
No amendments of any ?ort wero permitted,
although an error in the bill was polntoil
out./ \ ^.r
Hxuut Moaning of tho Hills.
VChalrmnn Dlngloy.nf tho Ways and Means
OAmmltloe, made a statement as to the exact
nioanings of tho Revenue bill. Ho said:
"The Roveuuo bill is not intended to be a
tariff revision, but simply nn exigency bill to
raise about $40,000,000 of revenuo to meet
tho delloieney. Tho main object is revenue,
although incidentally the increases will bolp
American industries to somo ex
tent. 'I>o bill Is limited to
two and W. njiH years, tho csxpoclation
boiug that by that time tho Republicans will
be in full power nnd able to roviso the tariff
on their own linos. Wools are taken from
tho freo Hat, mul clothing ^ duty or
t'? 4-10 cents (sixtv ppr cent. of tho duty pro
vided bv tho act of/1890), and woolen goods
nro given a spoelilc compensatory duly,
sixty per oont. of what they had under tho
act of 1H!)0, In addition to tho ad valorem
duty of tho present law. Carpet wools are
placod where they wero under the act of
1300, and the same spcclllc duty {pi von to
carpets as under tho net of
1800, in addition to the ad vnlorom
duties of tho present law. Tho articles of
lumber placed on tho.froo list of the turilT 01
1W0 are transferred to the dutiable list . with
eixtv per oont. of tho duty that they had un
der the act of 1800. Then all the other dutia
ble schedules (except sugar, whloh id not
touched) have all the duties raided llftoon
per, cent. -Tho committee had not tho time
to treat nrtloles separately, and hence a
JhorlKontnl iuorooso beoamo neooewary n* to
nil articles now on the free list.
"ThoUond bill." added Mr. Dingloy, "gives
tho Secretary of the Treasury authority to
issue a three per omit, live-year coin bond to
maintain the redemption fund. In addition
?o tho authority ho now possesses, but pro
vides that the proceeds of all bonds sold un
der this act an I undor tho Res.umpUou act
shall bo used only for redemption purposes.
"It also providos that all bonds shall be
first offered to tho people of this country.
Tho bill also authorizes certificates of in lcjbt
ednes?, bearing tbreo per cent. interest uud
payable within three years, to bo issued to
meot any temporary deficiency of rovenue.
The only object of tho bond bill is to reduce
the rate of intorest and tho time they run. as
the bondH which the Secretary is now au
thorised to Issue bear four or llvo per cent.
Interest. Tho bill practically separates tliu
redemption fund from tho cash in the Treas
ury, and is intonded to put a slop to iho
practical uso of proceeds of bonds to meet
the doflclcncy iu tho Troasury."

named ''Tho American llimettullic Union."
Tho new organization .stands for blnn'tal

either of the great parlies, the union will put
forth its own ticket in the next campaign.
