Rough ON Hill.

WASHINGTON, Sept. lS.-Reviewing
the evidence in investigating the charges
against Architect Hill, the committee
say they do not believe that this is nee.
essarily evidence of corruption on the
part OF the Supervising Architect, but it
shows that the business of the office has
not been conducted with that care and
economical impartiality which il should
be. Your committee does not hesitats
to say that the press of the country
will Justly TEEN with criticisms unfavor-
able to any office in the Government
conducted on such principles as have
been pointed out in this case. The re-
port closes with a showing of the great
extent of the business of the Architects
office and the Architects discretionary
powers, and recommendation for the
appointment of Board similar in char
acter to the Light House Board for the
discharge of all administrative duties
relating to the selection of sites and the
construction of public buildings.

Another Great Lake in Africa.

The existence of another equatorial
lake in Central Africa, far to the west of
Albert Nyanza, rImors of which have
reached Europe from time to time since
Sir Samuel Bakers first journey, is again
reported, this time il 4 <1.r~h more
definite form. Mr.. T. LuptOn, Governor
of the Egyptian province of Bahr el
Ghazal writes to the London Times from
his station, Dehm Siber, on the 9th OF
Julv. to the effect that Rafai Aga, an
employee under his command, ON his re-
turn from an expedition toward the Uelle,
told him that he and some of the mem
bers of the expedition had seen a great
lake in the country of the BarbOa, a
powerful copper-cOlored tribe clothed
with a peculiar grass cloth (of which
Mr.. Lupton sends a specimen III his
letter.. Mr.. Lupton gathered that the
position of the lake was in about 3
| degrees 40 minutes north latitude and
% degrees east longitude, and that il
was quite as large as Victoria Nyanza.
When the weather permits, the Barboas
cross the lake in large open boats made
out of single tree, the voyage taking
three days, and they obtain from the
people living on the western side theil
own country being east of the lake
articles Of European manufacture, such
as blue beads and brass wire.
Mr.. Lupton adds Rafai Aga's own ac
count of his route to the lake: "StarteG
from Dehm Bekeer, marched six days
southwest to Zeriba el Douleb, then foul
days south-southwest to Bengier foul
davs southwest to Zeriba Warendema
six days southwest by west to the BAH
ell Makwar, which he crossed after visit
ing several very large islands inhabited
by a people who call themselves Bas
angO. The Malzwar is called by thi
Arabs Bar el Warshal, and joins the
Uelle, but is a much larger stream boil
flow in west southwest direction. Afte
crossing the Mal1war Rafai marched
ten days south southwest and reached
the residence of the Sultan of Barboa
by whom he was well received :; the lakt
is situated four days march to tn
southwest of the Sultan's residence
Mr.. Lupton concludes by saying: &C
feel [ should not be doing right in keep
ing dark this information, which, whel
looked into by competent persons, ma,
throw some light on the famous Cong
and Uelle Rivers. I believe that tn
Uelle flows into the lake discovered b,
Rafai Aga, and that the stream which
said to flow out of the lake probabl,
joins the Congo" Mr.. Lupton furthe
informs the Times that he is engaged il
preparing a map of his province, ant
that he is about to start in few days OF
a journey to a country called Umbungl
about fifteen days march to the west o
Dehm Siber.

A SUDDEN FREAK.
The Story of II New York Girl and Her
Sudden Disappearance.

The New York correspondent of the
Baltimore american tells this story of a
sad descent: Fifteen years ago daughter
| of rich and prosperous man, living in
fine style on Fifth avenue, went out in
carriage, ostensibly ON a shopping expe-
| ditiOn. At Stewards store she left the
| carriage, and her coachman waited for
over two hours, until finally, becoming
| anxious, he made inquiries. The young
lady had disappeared, and though a
great deal of money was spent and much
effort made to discover her, there was no
trace. Ten years passed, and the detec-
tive who had worked on the case very
faithfully and axiously rose by degrees
to the rank of police captain. One cold
night, just after Christmas, four or five
of his officers entered the station with
eight or ten intoxicated women in their
custody. One or two were crying over
their arrest and the prospects of aprison;
others were fierce in their oaths at the
interference of the police with their orgie,
while others again were sulky. Stand
ing little apart from the group of pri-
soners the Captain noticed tall woman
of about thirty, and he saw that once
she had been beautiful, though now her
face was disfgured by a bruise on the
cheek and a black welt under one eye.
There was, however, an air of refinement
about the woman that attracted the police
captain, and he eyed her curiously while
the sergeant recorded the names of the
prisoners. Suddenly the women beck
oned to him. Captain, do you know
me ?" was her question. "No." Didn't

just out of pure deviltry, and I have had

the word thrilled in the Captains ear
like the wall of lost soul. "Repented !
Oh, God, yes But it was too late. "
''It's never too late" eyes it is. But
its not too late to die" And before the
captain could prevent she had drawn a
small pistol and shot herself. The poor
creature lived for two days, and when
she died it was in the arms of her father

Too Savage.

Many people are surprised, says the
London Truth, that the Grand Duke
and Grand Duchess Vladimir should be
such wanderers on the face of the earth.
The fact is the Grand Duchess, who IS
young and imprudent, has long been
amusing herself by making merry at the
expense of the ladies of the st. Peters
burg palace, and even of her imperial
female cousins. A letter, addressed by
her to a Russian princess living in Paris,
and in which she roasted most un-
mercifully the "cat," " the "mouse, the
''toad," and the "glow worm" (nick-
names which designate some of the
aforesaid ladies', was intercepted by one
of the Generals attached to the Cabioet
Noir, who handed it over to the Gar.
The Empress was terribly angry, and
insisted on the Grand Duchess Vladimir
being sent for some time out of the
country.

Jack Dawson's bUrly form moved from
behind a tree a short distance away, and
sneaked off up the gulch, great crystal
tears chasing each other down his
| face.
The family arose from their knees, and
| began to move the stores into the cabin.
There were several sacks of flour, hams,
canned fruits, pounds and pounds OF
coffee, tea, and sugar, new dress goods,
and handsome warm woolen shawl for
the widow, shoes, stockings, hats,
mittens. and clothing for the children,
a great big wax doll that could cry and
move its eyes for Totty, and beautiful
red sled for Benny. All were carried
inside amidst alternate laughs and
tears.
Bring the sack of salt, Totty, and
that is all, " said the mother. 'Is not
God good to us?'
81 can't lift it, mamma, it's froze to the
step r'
The mother stopped and took hold of
it. and lifted harder and harder, until
she raised it from the step. Her cheeks
blanched as she noticed its great weight,
and breathlessly she carried it in and
laid it upon the breakfast table. With
trembling fingers she loosened the string
and emptied the contents upon the table,
Gold and silver-mOre than she had ever
thought of in her widest dreams of com
fort, and almost buried in the pile of
treasure lay Totty's little blue stocking.
We will not intrude longer upon such
happiness, but leave the joyful family
sounding praises to heaven and--Santa
Claus.
The whole story soon reached Mrs.
Stewards ears. She knew Jack Dawson
by sight, and when she next met him,
although the honest fellow tried hard to
push by her, she caught hold of his coat
and compelled him to stand and listen to
her fearful thanks. The tears shed were
not all hers, for when Jack moved away
there were drops of liquid crystal hang
ing to his ruddy cheeks.
Four weeks from that "Merrie Christ
mas" Mrs. Stewart became Mrs. Jack
Dawson, and every evening, when the
hardy miner returns from his daily labor
to his comfortable and happy home,
Totty and Benny will climb upon his
strong knees and almost smother him
with kisses, while they lovingly address
him as g Our Santa Claus Papa. - Va

Danger in Stored Electricity.

The Edison Electric Light Company
look with alarm upon the Brush project
i of storing electricity so that it can b'
used as occasion may require. The presi
dent of the Edison company in speaking
of the matter says What then is the
Brush storage battery and where will the
householder locate it? That battery
is described as a coffin-shaped box,
eight feet long, sixteen inches wide and
sixteen inches high. This box is filed
with lead plates, is of great weight, and
must be placed where it can be got at for
occasional treatment. Every house
would need to have its own separate bat
terry, and many consumers will require
number of these boxes, varying with the
amount of light required. In some
cases they may be put in the cellar, IN
others in closet with strong floor;
but place them where you will, the wires
leading to them carry the death current.
Although every effort lie made to keep
the covering of these wires unbroken
and their location intact, still lnnumer-
able OccaSlOuS WILL hdPPOA' sum '
house repairs, etc., by which they will
be exposed to contact. Whoever touches
those wires-it may be curious child,
stupid servant, fireman, workman en-
gagged in plumbing, carpentering or car
ryinp coal-whoever touches them
so as to receive the current will be killed.
The public, as L have stated, will not
discriminate. If deaths happen from
such contact with electric wires, storm
of undiscriminating public indignation
will attack all methods of domestic light
ing by electricity. 1t is for this reason
that the Edison Company views with
deep alarm the possible advent of the
Brush Swan storage batteries, fed IN the
manner described by Mr.. Brush in re-
cent newspaper articles.

1 meet her coming from the church
And in the crowded thoroughfare,
With downcast eyes. a modest mien.
And tangled locks of sunny hair
With calm blue eyes that speak of truth,
Full honest in their grave intent,
A face where purity and youth
Has left its stamp of sweet content.
With her, life is a goodly thing,
Well spent in raising some poor heart,
About whose home the sombre wing
Of sin and sorrow finds a part.
Her greatest pleasure is to-day,
Where'er her wandering footstep trOd,
Out of the worldly mire and clay
To lift some creature near to God.
