DOINGS IN CONGRESS.

The Senate was engaged In debating the
Army Appropriation bill on the 18th, and the
House spent the day in discussing the bill to pro-
hibit political assessments. An effort was made
in the House to take up the bill in relation to
jurles. but the Republicans blocked business by
declining to vote, thus leaving the House without
quorum.
The Senate was the scene of long and hot
debate on the 18th, the Army bill constituting the
bone of contention. The debate eliminated in a
personal alteration between Messrs. Conkling and
Lamar, which for time produced considerable of
sensation about the Capitol. Mr.. Conkling de-
livered a bitter speech in which, referring to the
course of the Democrats in regard to the
Appropriation bills, imputed to them bad faith.
Mr. Lamar rose at the concu> ion of Mr.. Conkling's
remarks, aud SAID that as far any animation of
bad faith to him was concerned, he had lived in
vain II he Was not super.or to such charge from
such source. 1t is not my purpose he said,
" to indulge in personalities but will say to the
Senator that ii he intended to intimate that any
thing have done not in good faith, pronounce
MS statement fasehood, which Irepel with all the
unmihgated cont. mpt that feel for the author of

A Midnight Duel.

The Washington correspondent of
the Boston Journal writes: Among
the many bloody duels on record as
having been fought by Congressman
was one in which James Jackson, of
Georgia-who had been and who was
afterward United States Senator
was the challenged party. He was an
Engishman by birth, but he went to
Savannah when lad, studied law, was
leading Freemason, and fought gal
lantly in the Revolutionary war. He
killed Lieut.. Gov. Wells in 1880 in a
duel and was engaged in several other
affairs of HONOR until he finally deter
mined to accept challenge on such
terms as would make it his last duel
So he prescribed as the terms that each
party, armed with a double barreled
gun loaded with buckshot, and with
huntingknife, should row himself in
skiff to designated points on opposite
sides of the Savannah river. When
the city clock struck -, each should
row his skiff to a small island in the
middle of the river, which was wooded
and covered with underbrush. On ar
irving at the island each was to moor his
skiff, stand by it for ten minutes, and
then go about on the island until the
meeting took place. The seconds wait
ed on the main land until after l
o'clock, when they heard three gun
shots and loud and angry cries. Then
all was still. At daylight, as had been
agreed upon, the seconds went to
the island, and found Jackson lying on
the ground, insensible from the loss of
blood, and his antagonist lying across
him, dead. Jackson recovered, but
would never relate his experience on
that night, nor was he ever challenged
again. He died in this city, while serv-
ing his second term as United States
Senator, March 10, 1906"

Church PeWs.

The discomfort of church pews is
commented upon by the Christian at
Work, which says: Concerning pews
and chairs, why is it that modern inven-
ton fails to furnish even comfortable
pew or chair? The bench of the or
binary church pew is fourteen inches
wide, whereas it should be eighteen
inches; then it is placed on straight
level, perpendicular to the back; but
mankind are not constructed in this
way, and pews, to be comfortable, should
conform to human anatomy-the seat
should slope downward toward the
back, making fall of full three inches,
while the back should incline away
from vertical line fully four inches at
the top, and the distance between the
pews should never be less than three
feet" r-,i' - ,

BUSINESS NOTES.

PHILADELPHIA produce merchants
report fair trade. r..r
Ice factories are being built in many
of the Southern cities.
The boot and shoe trade of Boston is
unusually active for this stage of the
season. .#
THE coal product of the Schuylkill
region for the year thus far is 9,329, 900
tons, against 5,150,41S tons for the cor
responding period of last year-an in
crease of 4,177,4S2 tons. ia.
The Cincinnati Times prints series
of interviews with the iron men of that
city. Some of them take rosy view
of the situation, but large number OF
them are far from being satisfied.
The Philadelphia Bridge Works re-
Gently shipped ten iron truss bridges
from seven to fifteen feet in length
built at their establishment, at the east
ern end of Pottstown, for the Caibai-
rien and Espiritu railroad, Cuba.
THE Boston Traveller says: "The
demand for labor at the West has ma
terially reduced the volume of unem-
ployed labor here, while the demand
for our products to meet the wants Of
the West is causing most of the New
England manufacturing corporations to
work on full time"
ACCORDING to the Biddeford (Me.)
Union, the large cotton factories at
that point are full of operatives, run
ming on full time and presumably max.
ing fair profits. The machine shops
and foundries are hives of industry
employing full forces, and turning out
large amount of machinery. The
shoe factories were never doing g
larger or more prosperous business than
at the present time. =.

Mirror Photographs.

According to the Deutsche AHge-
meme Ze'taA7ag, German, named Karl
Steinbach, has made an important dis
covery in photography. After years OF
study and experiment, he has succeed
ed In obtaining chemical composition,
by means of which a mirror image may
be fixed and sold as photograph.
With this composition the mirror sur
face is painted, and the back part of the
mirror receives also a coating of oil.
The mirror thus prepared is held be-
fore the person who is to be photo
graphed. The oil-coating evaporates,
and the likeness Of the person remains
in natural colors on the light surface.
The image, SO fixed, is brought into a
bath, and is exposed half an hour to
sunlight before delivery.
