The Newspaper Copyright.

Washington, 14.-Henry Waiter
son appeared before the joint com.
mitteee on library this morning and
made an argument in support of the
newspaper copyright bill. In an
swer to an inquiry by members OF
the committee WattersOn said: A
misapprehension with regard to the
scope OF the bill had grown out of
the fact that the original bill orc
vided for the exclusiveness of pub
lished matter for period OF forty
eight hours, which time was suo-
seQuentIy reduced 10 twenty>four
hours. Both forms were imprac-
ticable and unnecessary, WsttersOn
said, "snd presents q bill granting
for eight hours Its
object was simply to prevent pirst
ing OF news and concurrent publica-
lion. He illustrated the purpose Of
the bill, and the evil it was designed
to correct by numerous examples.
He said il did not act as bar to
reproduction by aft. rnoon papers of
matter which appeared in morning
papers, and could not in the re-
hottest degree fleet what is known
as the country press"

Corrupt New York.

Albany, 14.-Roosevelt, chairman
OF the special assembly committee
investigating the departments OF
tho local government of New York
City, presented to-day voluminous
report. The committee found many
abuses due to the nOn~execusion or
violation of good laws. The COM
mittee agreed to report nine bills
which if adopted would obviate the
evils and save the city 100000. In
all the departments they invest
igated they found incumbents gen.
orally either dishonest or inefficient;
indeed, the whole government
seemed to be in a condition abso-
lutely appalling; deals by which
men have obtained p si'ion as de-
veloped by investigation, cast
curious de light upon Nsw York
politics, and show with startling
dist nctpess that under the present
system men who nominally hold

The Diva In Frisco,

San Francisco, 13.-Yt would be
difficult to exaggerate the excite
ment at the Grand Opera House
this evening al the crowd of ticket,
holders gathered to hear Patti in
Travlata, her first appearance in
this city. When the doors were
opened the crowd rushed in, almost
tramplipg each other under foot.
The confusion was intensified by
the savage growls of victims OF
holders of counterfeit tickets; also
by the fact that many others found
their seats occupied, the tickets
having through bad management
been sold a second time. Hardly
had the excitement subs dad when
it broke out anew by the announces
ment that the chief of police would
serve q warrant of arrest on Maple
son for having violated the fire oldi-
names in selling ticke's in excess of
the theatres capacity The large
theatre was packed to suffocstiOn,
the '. ceipts being estimated at fully
$4,000. Patti was magnifcently
greeted. After the Fl at act che was
literally buried under a shower of
which lasted five min
utes. An immense floral piece,
twelve feet long, representing the
ladder of fame sDrmouDted by a
globe, with sn eagle, was borne on
the stage and presented 20 the diva,
who gracicusly acknowledged the
huge Offering.

Commercial Travellers.

If any evidence were wanting to con-
vince one that business is flat it might
be found in the knots of well-dressed
men who sit about the wholesale stores
exchanging stories, smoking and smil-
ing, but never looking about for any
thing to do. These are the commercial,
travellers. They are at home, and when
they pack their samples and leave their
well-worked paths it is good time to
rest. They are the happiest, most
genial class in the world. With both
eyes darting about keenly in search of
trade they have yet time to make life a
merry one. They are very distinct
class, and often wonder they are not
seized on oftener by our rising novelists
and playwrights and drawn as they are
not distorted as Phipps. Like most
other pushing people, the sharp drum
mers get rich, and often very quickly.
They usually all of them have several
irons in the fire all the time, and keep
a telescope lookout for chances besides.
Competition keeps their invention active
for means to get ahead. know of one

How Roman Women Beautify Their
COmpleXiOnS.

Compilations differ very much with
the climate. The English have, beyond
a doubt, the most beautiful compilations
in the world. American girls possess
more beauty of feature, perhaps. but
their compilations are not nearly so
fine. AS one goes further south toward
the equator, one sees darker skin and
darker hair and eyes, for all these
physical characteristics have reference
to climatic influences. Upon two
things the condition of the skin de-
rends-oil and coloring matter. The
skin of very old man or woman, for
want of oil, becomes like wrinkled,
dried-up parchment; an Albino has
scarce any cOloring matter in his hair,
eyes or complexion. To finish, | will
give you recipe for identifying the
compile xion-the one used by the
danes Of ancient Rome. Probably it is
familiar to many, but there may be
others who have never read it. These
ladies made stiff paste of rye -four,
and covered their faces with it on re-
firing. In the morning they washed it
OIL with milk (they never used water),
and applied a little powder if it was
deemed necessary. This, we are told
on good authority, is really the best
method of improving the complexion
that has ever been used, either in
ancient or modern tt mes. The rye
four is said to positively draw from the
skin any marks that may have fingered
on it. Moreover, it makes the COM
plexion charmingly soft-an effect
which the milk helps to produce. Sew
eral Partisan bellies adopted this plan,
and it is rumored that the Empress
Eugene tried it. At all events the
ladies who are known to have followed
the recipe of the Romans are also those
who have been celebrated for their
lovely skins. In spite of the opinion of
the clever druggist this is doubtless
very efficacious in softening and bleach
ing the skin.-IOrOnto Globe.

The College Graduate.

The trouble with the college gradu-

doesn't imagine that this is the case.
He has far more assurance than he will

ready and anxious to attempt anything;
but he is really, SO far as practical mon

However, the young man RECEIVERS
