CStii Pat.?A scene of intense interest was presented in the Senate when the 1'resident's message, transmitting the findings of the .Maine court of inquiry was received. The galleries were packed to the dpors. end the attendance of Senators was quite as large as it has Lccu at any time during the present session. Eager to ascertain the full finding of the court, scores of the nit rubers of the House, alter adjournment of lha: body, bad hurried to the Senate chamber, and the lioor was crowded with thera. When the reading of the President's message was begun a hush so marked fell over the cbamfier that one literally might, have heard a pin fall. Throughout the reading of both the message and the finding of the court there w?ts not the slightest demonstration. The documents were referred to tbo cotumittce on foreign relations. Following closely upon the inesrago and findings, came the speech < >; 'lonoy, of Mississippi, on his recent observations in j Cuba and the deductions from tliem he had made. His speech was along the same lilies as those of Senators Proctor, Gallinger and Thurston. Upon the announcement of lieprosentative Simp- | kins' death, the Senate adjourned. ODth Dir.?Interest in the Cuban i situation?the interest might almost be termed excitement, so intense was it? J reached a climax in the proceedings of the benate to-day. As on previous days of the discussion of the Cuban question, thoutauas of people flocked . to the capital, but only a few of them, 1 comparatively, could gain admission to ' the galleries. Within live minutes , after the Senate convened, Allen, of j Nebraska, introduced a resolution re- j cognizing the independence of the I Cnban republic. This was followed by j a resolution proposed by Rawlins, of ! Utah, declaring war against the ' kingdom of .Spam, roraker, of Ohio, j then introduced a resolution for such intervention in the Cuban war as would ; bring about, the independence of j the Cubans. Following this came a resolution by Mr. Frye, of Niaiue, demanding that Cuba be made free. TKa nAc.-.lnfiAna fnllntvod nna Annfhflr X UC IVOv/iUHVUD IVilVIIVvi MUV..V ; so rapidly as almost to stun tho auditors, both Senators and spectators. This was the condition when the VicePresident recognized Mr. Mason, of il- j linois, for his announced speech on th<: j President's message transmitting tu | Congress the findings of the Maine j court of inquiry. Mr. Mason read his ! speech from manuscript, but it was de livered with all the vigor and fire of ' which he is capable. The intensity of ; the feeling of those in the galleries was j evidenced by tlio storm of applause which was elicited by his declaration J that he was for war. Vice-President Pobart had difficulty in suppressing ; the demonstration. After Mason's ' speech the Senate passed seventy-four private pension bills and followed this j order with eulogies on the late Senator . Earle, of South Carolina, one of tho most remarkablo of which was pro- j nonuced bj* Tillman, a longtime po- ' litical opponent of General Parle. Mor- j rill, of Vermont, from tho finance committee, reported a joint resolution providing for the importation, free or duty, of military supplies secured abroad into the United States and asked for its iin mediate consideration. it was passeu. ; 71/th Day.?In the Senate Caffery, of Louisiana, concluded his speech on the national quarantine bill, after which the measure making four provisions for u civil government for Alaska was passed. Frve reported from the committee on foreign relations the Senate resolutions: "l'hat the Frosident be requested, if not incompatible with public interest, to transmit to the Senate all of the consular correspondence relating to the conduct of the war on the island of Cuba, the condition of the people aud other matters relating thereto." He asked that the resolution lie on the table, when he would ask for its cousiderotiou. 71st Day.?In the Senate, Hawley, of Connecticut^ presented in amended ! form the joint resolution offered by B&- j con, of Ueorgia, concerning tho erec- i tion of temporary fortifications. He said that the resolution as now amended met all objections that had been raised ' against tho original one. It is as fol- ' lows: "That :n case of emergency, j when in the opinion of the President . the immediate erection of any tempora- | ry fort or fortification is deemed important uud urgent, such temporary fort ; or fortification may be constructed on written cousent of the owner of the laud upon which such work is to be placed; and the requirements of section 335, of the revised statutes shall not be applicable in such cases." Ilieresolution was passed. 72d Day.- After a quiet session, daring which the resolution offered the day before by Senator Chandler calling for thp Cuban correspondence, was referred to tne committee, adu a secret session ; an the bill to purchase the Danish West i tndian Island heretofore reported, the J Senate adjourned until Monday. thiThouse. ?7rn Pat.?The reading of tLe Tresi- ( dent's message in the House was listen* i ad to with breathless interest by ihe members, and the spectators in the galleries, who were crowded like sar dines in a box. Just one wave of applause swept from door to ceiling, and then the death of Representative Sirnpkius, of Masaaclra&otia, was announced, and the house adjourned, ihe message was referred to the com tnittee on foreign relations. After the adjournment of the House there ?as considerable discussion over a proposed consolidation of the forces in the House who favor some form of immediate action on tho Cuban issue. There a-as a strong feeling shown over the ivoidauco in the message of any outline of a definite administration policy, ind a decided disposition apparent not to wait any further delay, nor resort to I temporizing measures.

Cuban non-combatants is mooting with j opposition to which members on both ' sides of the House have given voice in private discussion on the ground, first, I that Spain alone is responsible for the I condition on the island, and second, the extending of such large and probably continued aid abroad is unjust to tho people of this councry. The steps taken on this line were of an informal I nature. 7Sth Day.?The revolt in the House against further delay of action on the ! Cuban issue culm-nated on the 215th in ! a conference of Republican members ' whose ideas are in accordance with a I positive early course. About fifty repi resentatives attended, representing all i sections. Representative Hopkins, of i Illinois, a member of the ways and i ! means committee, presided. Representative Joy, of Missouri, was secretary, j Tho meeting was called to take steps to j secure immediate intervention, in socio for, and the recognition of Cuban iuI -i 1 T, ji.. A? t i i I impendence, n v.us u:e ursi ueuunu i ' step following discussions inthecloaii J rooms ain! lobbies since the President's ; message was submitted bj- many meai1 bcrs who favor immediate and aggresI sive action. Up to this present senti meat, was a half-concealed, but strong feeling against voting money for Cuban ! relief uniess accompanied by a declara- j ' tion to stop the war. 'i'lio meeting was j 1 called with a view to accomplishing the j unqualified removal of the ISpanish j ' troops from Cuba aud the prompt armed j intervention ia the aflairs of that island. ' Representative llopkins, as chairman, briefly stated tho objects of the meet; ing. He indicated bis disappointment that the President's message carried ; no ontliue of delinite responsive policy i toward Spain, and that ho did not j believe further delay would bo brooked. He, however, thought the, ad- j ministration might have another | day or iwo wiimu wuicu i to act, and failing to do ,so, Congress j should take the matter into its own hands independent!}' and at once. He favored notion iookiug to Cuban independence, but made no specific suggestions as to thelnethod of its accomplishment. Various views were presented as to tho best means for securing action, though the feeling that no action other than the cessation of hostilities on the island and absolute independence should be taken apparently was unanimous. 71)th Day.?In the House a w>ld and uproarious scene occurred when Baile}', the Democratic leader, attempted to force the hands of tha licpublicans upon a proposition to overrule the Speaker and pass a resolution recognizing tho independence of the Cuban republic. He was cheered on by tho < crowded galleries, but the members of i the majority refused to support him. j They were rallied by two of j the leading advocates of arm- j ed intervention and the Speaker j himself from thocbairmnde an indirect appeal to bis party associates to stand j firm, at the samo time intimating that 1 if their impatience was curbed a little | longer they would have the opportunity I they coveted. 'J.lie scene turougnoui was most dramatic and tlio members j and spectators in the galleries were . wrought up to a high pitch of excite- j ment. Bailey oilbred his resolution as j a privileged question. The resolution , was tabled. 80th Bat.?For three hours tho i packed gallariss and excited members i of the House listened to a j assionato outburst of oratory on the Cuban question, during which tho intensity of feeling was alternately manifested by cheers, jeers and hisses. Time and again the excited throngs in the galleries were admonished to bo silent. At one time, nt least, it seemed as if a motion would bo made to clear them. The three speeches which stirred the , assemblage to its dopths were made by Grosvenor, of Ohio, who, it was ! assumed, spoke for tho administration, j and who practically pledged it to the ' cause of free Cuba; Bailey, of Texas. ' the Democratic leader, who announced j the Democratic position as for Cuba 1 without war, if it could be avoided, but with war if necessary, au.i Johnson, of Indiana, who spoke for peaco, 1 /lonlorinrv fVinf if troa nn? rlnfw \IVV.IUi kUUV i V ?? * > VUft V*u?.j to go to the extreme iu magnanimity to avoid the horrors of nar. Lewis, a Democrat from Washington, provoked the speech of Johnson, which aroused the members and the galleries to the fever pitch of excitement Lewis had denounced the proposition that Cuba purchase her freedom from Spain, j which, it was alleged, the administra- : tion was fostering. Then it was that ; Johnson, in a brilliant speech, pleaded for peace. He faced the storm of hisses which swept down upon him from the galleries like a Spartan, and with passionate utterance adjured members to pause before they plunged the countrj' into war, the evils of which would follow after in endless train. Little progress was made with the naval bill, i The only important amendment adopted was one apppropriating &C0.000 for the erection of new buildings at the Naval Academy. 81st Dat.?After an exceedingly turbulent session of six hours, the House passed the naval appropriation bill and then adjournefl until Monday. 'J he war spirit was manifested iu all the speeches and overrode the naval committee itself by increasing the number of torpedo boats and torpedo boat destroyers to 24, the bill as rei>orted providing for but 12, and the qppropriatioB to $4,000,009, instead of $2,300,000. TOWN SWEPT AWAY. Fully 200 People Drowned by a Flood in an Illinois Town. A special to the St Louis (Mo.) Republic from Girard, 111., says: A telephone message has been received here from Shawneetown, 111., saying that at 4:30 o'clock on the afternoon of the 3d I the levee above the city broke and the *a_ z l.i._ J rn ? i i ? ? any ih muiiuaieu. i.ne water nas uacteil up for five miles and rushed down upon the city like a tidal wave. After the message was received telephone and telegraph communication with Shawneetown was suddenly cut off, which tends to confirm the report. Nothing more has been learned. It is rumored that over 200 liyes were lost, although it is believed this estimate is too high. A special to the Louisville (Kv.) Courier-Journal from Evansville, Intl., says: The Shawneetown disaster will amount to over 500 dead, and possibly 1,000. The situation of the tqwn was much like Jamestown, although the population was smaller. The town ia now under twenty feet of water.

The story of the lifeboat remains tc bo written. To do 60 now would be premature, inasmuch as. notwithstanding the large amount of ingenuity which baa been lavished on the tiesigning of a vessel which shall prove satisfactory, the thing desired yet remains to be achieved. The lirst lifeboat was, curiously enough, devised by a landsman, one Lionel Lukin, a coachbuilder of Dunniow, in E--.sex, England. This man had lost some relatives in the foundering of a vessel at i sea, and he set about designing a ves! cr.i which should be unsinbable.

The first lifeboat was 30 feet long, and possessed a beam of 10 feet. It was rowed by 10 oars, double-banked, and it was the first vessel built :n which the main features of all lifeboats were found. Thus, the stein and fctern were alike, it had a curved keel, ? 1 ** OPfAfl f't* Ont{/1cHn< Uiiti Ik UUlkVJU Echoes.

The success of a battle depends quite as much on the courage and obedience of the soldiers as on the wisdom and generalship of the officers: and so the welfare of the world is more concerned In the faithful discharge of duty by the thousands who lead quiet and obscure lives than by the great achievements of the few gifted ones.

Few transportation companies in this country have so favorable a hold on a fault-finding public as this corporation of the Chesapeake. The accommodations, the conveniences and the management of the 6teamere meet a cordial recognition from a public?too often entertained as cattle rather than human beings?always glad to receive a little more than they pay for. It is not ea?y to form an exact estimate of the number of passengers carried yearly by the Old Bay Line steamers, but I have been informed that it reaches nearly half a million. I think that fact Is a bettet recommendation than any I could possibly write of the Old Bay Line. Dragging Music Into a Play. "I once saw a raft scene In an English play," says a noted play actor. "Suddenly one of the shipwrecked party cried out: 'What's that I see float lng toward us on the waves?' 'A grand piano,' shouted another. Then the piano was hauled up on to the raft and one of the famishing castaways played a 'Rhapsodle Eongrolse,' by Liszt. That cured me of 'dragging in music by the hair.'" When a man begins to do wrong, he cannot answer for himself how far he may be carried on. He does not see beforehand, he cannot know where he will And himself ifter the sin is committed.
