The Greatest Claim Agency.

Neto YORK journal or Commerce.
The English House of Commons is
known as "the best club in London"
The United States House of Representa-
tives may not be a good club, but it is
the greatest claim agency in the world.
The principal business of its members is
to present claims and watch over them
till they are paid. Up to the date of ad.
1Ournment for the holidays about two
thousand five hundred bills had been
offered in the House. OF these all but a
few were schemes for extracting money
from the Treasury. They are claims of
innumerable varieties. Many of them
are "for the relief" of individuals
who ere constituents of the mem
bers presenting them. In nine cases out
of every ten the claims of this description
are frauds pure and simple, 1t costs the
claimant nothing to concoct his demand.
1t costs the member nothing to slip it in
on bill day. Why should not ANYBODY
play claimant for any amount under such
easy conditions7 There is no end to the
breed OF claimants. For every one that
is paid on fifty new ones spring up. One
would think that the late arrears of pen
sions act would stop the mouths of one
set OF claimants for while. But they
are more numerous than ever. A
large proportion of the bills al
ready filed are for the payment of pep
sion claims-presumably swi-I,",es-
which the pension Office be- tho firmneOs e

The Supposed Aeorolite.

AS Maj. Newson is very generally rec
ognized as good authority on mineral and
geological topics generally, reporter of
the GLOBE asked his opinion of new
sensation in the shape of what is sup
posed to be an ;eorilite. He responded
by saying that he had just seen it, and
that in his opinion, it was mass of con-
glomerate stones, thrown together by iron
Stag, and IS the result of volcanic action.
He knew of bed of conglommerate ore
in the St. Louis river, also on the banks
of the upper Mississippi and also
in the Black Hills. That it
was carried to Murray county by the
glacial or drift period. He remarked
that there were several kinds of stone in
the mass, among which was Syenitic
granite, trappean rock, green stones and
other varieties, all clearly showing that
they had been worn round by the action
Of water before the hot lava cemented
them together. The major says that a
very fine specimen of Oerolite can be
seen in the State university, and
it is very beautiful article of
iron, with fine color and
good ring. He says also he has often
seen specimens of granite two hundred
miles from where it originally existed,
carried that distance by the drift period;
and only yesterday he saw specimens of
Ignite coal, bed of which, with vein
six feet wide, is known to exist some 200
miles northwest of ST. Paul. He has no
doubt but this specimen is drift deposit
for that bed
Do you think it possible that this mass
of rock could have come from another
Oh, well, anything is possible with a
higher power, but it would take good
deal of proof to convince me that this is
anything more than natural result of
volcanic forces.

METHOD OF CONDUCTING HOTELS
IN EUROPE.

Hotels in Europe are conducted on
the theory that the guest is private
parsonage to be entertained In private
manner. He is not required to register
his name-he goes only 10y the number
of his room, and most frequently no one
but the waiter-not even the landlord
will have anything to say or do with
him. Meals may be sent to the guests
bedroom, or he may take them in the
dining-room in many hotels, also, in
the "coffee room," the "smoking
room," the commercial room," and
even in the parlor. Some hotels, but
not all, have table d. hote.
In many hotels in Great Britain,
rather good ones too, as far as furnish
ings go, nothing but cold cuts are to be
except at breakfast or at the late
dinner, cold ham, roast beef, corn beef
or chicken, bread and beer, form the
ordinary lunch. Some hotels in London
furnish no vegetables. at such the bill
of fare is coffee, tea, ham and eggs.
mutton chops, roast beef, soles or salmon
and bread. Even with this Indifferent
bill of fare they are often crowded and
at times decline to receive guests unless
rooms have previously been bespoken.
Most usually invariably so in the no.
tells of the middle class-women are the
housekeepers; assign guests to rooms,
keep the accounts and manage the in
ternal arrangements. Payment is ex-
acted only for what the guest has Or
dered He will be charged for the room,
but is under no obligation to take meals
in the house. A cup of coffee and bis
emit will be as cheerfully furnished as
the most elaborate meal.
The waiter is the principal executive
officer. He invariably wears a suit of
black broadcloth, clawhammer coat,
white necktie, broad expanse of shirt
bosom and sometimes a white vest.
What is your number, please?" he
will say on first coming in contact with
you, and will quietly book against that
number the price of dishes ordered for
the meal as well as the lodging. Pre-
vious to departing you will ask him to
render you an account, or at any rate
he is the official who will present the bill
to you, receive the payment and make

LOTTERIES IN 1903,

In these degenerate days the lottery
is looked upon as very wicked institu-
ton which all men should avoid. Laws
have been enacted to suppress it, and
have, in great measure, driven the
managers of the concerns into other
channels of business. Things were
different in our grandfathers' days.
when the drawing of prize in lottery
was looked upon as blessing from
God. In 1853 the lottery was highly
commended. One Samuel Seabury in
vested a little of his spare change in a
ticket, and after drawing a prize thus
wrote "The ticket number 1856. by
the blessing of God, in the Lighthouse
and Public Lottery of New York, APP
pointed by law, Ammo Domini 1853, drew

Il MARYLAND BARBECUE.

Very few know just what a barbecue
means. Well, if you want to see one Id
all its glory go to Maryland. The bar
becue ground is generally located near
fine spring. Around its clear waters are
hung score of gourd dippers. Starting
early in the morning we find the campus
already humming like hive. Long,
broad'ditches have been dug, and these
are foored with Goals foot deep, over
which are laid great splits, and on these
huge carcasses of hogs and bullocks.
Farther on beyond these trenches are
great log fires, which are kept constant
ly blazing, SO that at any time the bitches
may be replenished with Goals. Such
kissing and cracking as there is above
these immense fires as the mounting
flames curl and wreath themselves into
great volumes of smoke Scores of
coaches. buggies and wagons are pour
ing in, filed with laughing, Jolly
crowd, all intent upon days frollc.
Families come on horseback, while not
infrequently can be seen three riders on
one mule. Gayly-dressed ladies come
with their escorts, and negroes pour in
on foot. The whole country seems to
have entered into the frolic. Down by
the great boiling kettles near the spring
the darkies are dressing shoats, sheep
and great beeves. Every animal is left
whole, but is split to the backbone.
Long tables are spread beneath the
pines. The horn is blown for dinner.
AS the band strikes up a lively air the
people wind in a long, fantastic line in
and out among the trees to the wide
spread tables beneath. Babies crow and
prattle, mothers chat together, while
old people find they have not forgotten
how to laugh. Certainly nothing can
oe more jolly than Maryland barbecue.
