There are now about forty, j and if adopted will add several millions to the appropriation. It will not be I surprising if the bill when adopted, is vetoed by the president. Democratic presidents have never had much love I for river and harbor bills, in fact democrats are op|toned to internal im provements. It Is just beginning to apjiear that the appropriations made at this Messina of Congress are assuming won derful dlrninsions. Ctillom s bill on Inter-state commerce has been killed in the house committee |and Ilegans bill will lie substituted for it. The triumph of the pensions bill is something of which Senator Blair feels proud, and it is gratifying to know that e\- Lincoln Journal.J J. Sterling Morton has been here several days and has been interviewed on the subject of I*mar garine legislation. He is opposed to j the bill to tax that commodity. Things seem to be going w rong lo re for the would-be governor of Nebraska. He compares the present congress with the times of Benton. cla> and Webster and says it compares with eongiess as wagon grease does with Jersey butter. He says if ignorance In congress were taxed the government would derive an im mense income. A member of the Nebraska house del egation says the house Barjlic railroad eoinmittes has agreed to report that part of the l iiioii Pacific branch feeder bill which repeals the act of iNTd pro hibiting the building of branch lines without congressional assent, as an amendment to the Crisp extension or the Hoar funding bill; that the latter bill; will then be passed and if it fails the Omaha Board of Trade >i 11 will be passed.

Chicago, May 22.—The grand jury was occupied in investigating ordinary criminal case*. No indictments against the anarchists have been found as yet, and may not be until the investigation shall have been concluded.

The only clothing on the Is sly was a pair of drawers marked “\V. II. brooks.' There are superficial cuts skin deep on the breast of the body and on the inside of the trunk a piec e pn|*ei bearing the words “So perish all traitors to the caiiHe.’1 The witness had the lungs and liver removed ami and examined, and also had the body embalmed. The cross examination developed the fact that the witness, when the body had first been brought to the morgue, had it marked Whitman." to distin guish it from surrounding corpses of negroes. Several other witnesses were examin ed this morning, but gave no new testi mony. THE CANADA SEIZI'liES. )tta w a, )nt..

J In the year 1S58 voting man named Ed- wan! Farrell left hla native town of Hligo, In Ireland, and famn to this country In j search of fortune. Ilia departure almost i broke the heart of Mary Ford, the fair col- |e«*n to whom his troth was plighted, but the promise that he would send for her »s soon as he was settled in the new world 1 robbed the parting of its bitterest sting. The young man was bright and well edu cated, and shortly after he landed he ob tained a position ns shipping c lerk in a Boston house. In a year ho waa promoted. And then he sent for his aftlanoed and busied himself in fitting up the home his thrift had enabled him to secure. In dun time the steamer arrived, and the young man, waiting eagerly at the dock, sprang on deck to welcome his wife that would be; but In all the throng he failed to find her. Ilia eager inquiries elicited negative answers; nobody, either stewards or pas sengers, had seen or heard of her, and when he examined the passenger list he found that her name was not there. Mho had missed the steamer, or else his letter had been delayed. H«* was deeply disap pointed, but he thought, she must surely arrive on the following. lie impatiently awaited the arrival of the next steamer, but it brought no relief; she was not among the passengers. uu'ii no wrote homo ngnin, an thoughts. When Fort Sumter was fired upon and the call for volunteers came ho did not hesitate to join the ranks of those who were charmed by tile prospect of a three months’ picnic, lie hoped to find relief in the excitement of the campaign and he was successful. When the three months expired he re-enlisted, 1 and remained in the service until peace j w as declared. !I« was twice wounded, and when ho was mustered out it was os Colonel of a regiment with a fighting record. He returned to Boston and associated himself with n re putable business man of experience, whoso daughter be married two years later. His union was a happv one, and was blessed with two children. Hi* wife died in 1*79, and two years later he retired from busi ness, having acquired a competence. Hi* oldest son, aged eighteen, was, and is, a student in a popular educational institu tion in Boston. His chum was a young in an of his own age, who lived with his widowed mother In this city. One after noon, three months ago, there was a gath ering of some kind in connection with the school, and the |y»well young man tho guest of hi* chum for the night. In the morning he met the Colonel for the first time. The old gentleman was very much truck by a resemblance in tho young man’* face to some one he had know n, and In a short time he was in possession of all the facts connected with the youth’s his tory. H«* was greatly excited by the recital, and the next day he came to Lowell and found in the widow tho colleen he had waited so anxiously for twenty-eight year* before. Their meeting was a touch ing one. The lady had no difliculity in clearing up the strange mystery attending her disappearance. It seem* that on tho very day she was to sail for New York another vessel was announcer! to sail for Australia. The cabman, who drove her from the railway station, blundered and look her to the wrong wharf. 8h« confi dently went on board the vessel and re tired Pi her cabin, where she remained for six days a victim to mai de mer. The first she learned of her mistake was when she inquired of the stewardess when they should reach New York. Her anguish w h *u she found that she was far away from n**r destination and sailing in an entirely opposite direction almost drove her to distraction, and for day* she refused to b* comfortad. The officer* of the veis«* treated her with the utmost kiudues* and when the vessel arrived at Melbourne they offered her a return passage. Hix months Inter she ar rived In Liverpool, and without stopping to visit her home, she sailed at olive for America. When she reached Boston her betrothed bail gone to the war and alt her efforts to trace him were unavailing. Hh« wa* an expert at needlework and speedily found a situation. Shortly after the war she formed tho acquaintance of a worthy resident of this city, and counting her first love among the *laiu, she became his wife. He died nlo» years ago, leaving her an only son and a comfortable Income. 8be hud lived quietly in retirement these I many years, but yesterday there was a quiet wedding, arid the lovers of thirty years ago were united again forever. fooling Kmart I»og.

A Professional’s Ghat About Soma Well-Known Freaks. Midget* Mated to Giants—The Living Skeleton TCho “Ilewltrhed’* a Pretty Philadelphia Girl—The Romance of a Circassian Girl* rPhlladelpbta Times.} •’Freaks fail in Jove, fall put of ft, marry, hate children, grow jealous, wander off to other fancies and are happy and miserable just, like ordinary people,” said a dime museum ofllcial, “and they make some of the queerest matches imaginable. It is said that in selecting life partners people generally chooso their opposites, and it is certainly true of freaks. There was Mrs. Hannah Battersby, one of the fattest of all fat women. Her husband, .John Battersby, was a living skeleton. No sooner were they married than she began to lose flesh and he to gain it. His weight increased so rapidly that lie soon became too stout to exhibit ns ft skeleton, and, like Othello, his occupation was gone. “Barcn Littlefinger, the Italian dwarf, is only a little over three feet high, but he married a woman who stands five feet six inches in her stockings. They have had children, one of whom is already larger than his father. Dwarfs very frequently seem to fancy people of large size. This was the case with Che Mali, the Chinese dwarf, who married Louise Coleman, a full-sized attractive young lady of Brook lyn. “Just us dwarfs prefer large people, so giants seem to find their affinity among those of low sfqture. Colonel Goshen, a man about eight feet in height!,'married a woman rather under the medium size. Colonel Bates, another very tall giant, was married to at least one or two ordi nary-sized woman before he wedded his present wife, Anna Swan, the Nova Scotia giantess. This couple have a delightful residence at Seville, that is quite like a giant’s castle out of a fairy story. The ceiling and doors are of great height, while the beds, tables, chairs and other furniture are like that described of 'Jack, the Giant Killer.’ “Quite often freaks show excellent judg ment in their niutrimenial ventures and marry persons admirably suited to them in all respects. Every one knows how happily Mr. ami Mrs. Tom Thumb lived together, and the latter bids fair to bo equally contented in her second marriage with Count Maggl, the nobly-born Italian dwarf. Theu there is Pat O’Brien, the Irish giant, who married the German gi antess. They are a splendidly-matched couple, ami are us happy as clams at high tide. creaks make tbeir strongest matches "'hen they marry persons in no way con nected with the business. They appear to iiuve an irresistible fascination for some people, nn<l the more monstrous ami re pulsive they are the greater seems their power to charm. I once saw a very pretty, well-dressed young girl gazing with an expression of the most intense admiration at Tom, of Tom and Hattie, the well known Australian wild children, who is a driveling imbecile. For fully half an hour slio stood apparently spell-bound, and it was only by the most earnest entreaties amt the use of gentle force that her friends were finally able to induce her to leave the spot. Everybody who reads the news papers must remember how a handsome Brooklyn girl of good family was com pletely fascinated by ‘Charlie/ one of Barnum’s blackest, most repulsive Zulus, a few years ago, and married him in spite of all her friends could do. “The first tattooed man ever on exhibi tion in this country was a Greek sea cap tain, said by some people to have been a pirate, who had a number of very hand some diamonds. He had l»een made pris oner by the inhabitants of some savage inland and tattooed as a means of torture. There was not a place on his entire body the size of a pin’s head that had not been treated in this "ay. His face was tattooed in such a manner as to make him anything but attractive in his appearance and bis savage tormentors even shaved off his hair and tattooed every inch of his scalp. Notwithstanding these drawbacks he mar ried a very handsome American woman, who was devoted to him. Instead of the harmless pigment generally used by tat tooers the savages employed indigo, which finally produced blindness and other seri ous ailments. “Everybody will remember J. B. Gar rison, the living skeleton we had on ex hibition during the season of 1HWI-K4, who acquired such celebrity under the sobriquet of the ‘Skeleton Bridegroom,’/ from his having charmed and married a young woman of West Philadelphia. Her par ents and friends declared that she was temporarily insane, but most probably she was only suffering from that, peculiar power of fascination which freaks seem to have over many people. You would have been surprised if you could seen the large number of love letters which Garrison daily received. “In Pittsburgh, some years ago, when Major Burnell, an old showman, long since gathered to his fathers, ran a museum on Fifth avenue, his list of curiosities includ ed a Circassian girl. A fine young fellow of alamt twenty years, belonging to one wealthiest and ln*st families of the Biuoky City, saw her in the show, fell desperately in love with her, made her acquaintance and was soon engaged to be mar ried to her. His mother, who, until he came of age, had ab solute control of the fortune left him by his father, threatened to withdraw all support from him meanwhile unless he gave up the girl. As tt consequence ho be came insane and was placed in an asylum. There he passed his twenty-first birth day and came Into his property. Shortly afte.rward the doctors declared him per* fectly cured and discharged him. He Im mediately hunted up bis lovely Circassian and married her. At last accounts they were living in a magnificent residence on Squirrel Hill, one of the toniest places about Pittsburgh, surrounded by a fine grow ing family and us happy as dickey birds. “Bofno freaks never get married. There is Millie Christ!he, the double-beaded col ored girl. She has had many offers, but has declined them all, apparently not caring to follow the example of the late Siamese Twins, each of whom married and raised a family.’’ A Ht. Paul policeman tramps his beat fn shoes that arc eighteen inches long and I six inches broad across the soles.
