How well / remember what may be
called the total cripples' in Congress
during the past twenty years. All told
they were four. First who gave way
was grand old Thaddeous Stevens. He
was always lame from an Informed
foot. | have heard he did not walk at
all until he was six years old. He al
could walk far, and, during the LAST few
years of his life (he died at 76) he could
not walk at all. Every day he was TAX
en- from his home near the Capitol by
two strong c0lOred men in an easy chair
which they heisted on their shoulders,
and thus the great cOmmOner was borne
through the streets. Crowds used to
gather to soc him pass and revereBtly
lift their hats. He was put down in his
place in the House and when the session
was over he was taken back to his house
and put to bed. Mr.. Stevens often laugh
ingly spoke of the two cOl0red carriers
rs his pail bearers. Another helpless
cripple was Darwin A. Finney, a mem
Der for one term from Meadville, Pa. He
propelled himself about in wheel chair
but his trunk and lower limbs were
helpless from paralysis and he had to be
helped in and out of the House Of Rep
resentatives. He died abroad, | believe
at about the same time as Mr.. Stevens
died. Oliver p. Morton, as l think, one
of the biggest men ever in Congress, was
another helpless paralytic. lie was new
or out of pain, and although young
man Che died at the age Of 54), he was
the most dependent Of mOrtals in his
latter days. He, too. had to be carried
into and out of the Senate chamber in
chair. He was poor man and could i'll
afford the low coupe he was obliged to
own. The other helpless statesman OF
the four alluded to was Alexander II.
Stephens. He was truly phenomenon.
Built Of nothing but skin and bones, he
never weighed while in Congress more
than from 80 to 100 pounds. Such a lit
tie bit of thin face, and such skeleton
hands you never saw. Yet how bright
were his eyes, and what exhibitions OF
energyl His voice was one Of the strong
est and clearest / ever heard, and when
he spoke, my masters wheeling his chair
backward and forward in the space in
front of the Speakers desk, he was listen
ed to by the whole House. He had to be
taken home in his chair, too. He had
for body servant o young negro six
feet four in height, and admirably pro-
portiOned. Mr.. Stephens used to say.
chnckling quietly the while, that he did
not know what he should do when Sam
died. All four Of these men are now
dead. Three Of them certainly were
great. aid 1t seems to me that the places
ofCThad Stevens and Governor Morton
never can be nlled.

The Fuel ofthe Future.
Pittsburg letter to The Philadelphia Press

Pittsburg letter to The Philadelphia Press.
That the gas for heating purposes will
eventually drive all other cOmbustibles
out of the field in Pittsburg Is inevitable.
Already the consumption of gas instead
Of coal is enormous. 1t Is estimated
that from 100000 to 100000 cubic
feet of gas is burned each day in Pitts
burg as fuel. Already ten iron and steel
mills in the city. and six In western
Pennsylvania are using it in their pud-
ding furnaces ami under their boilers.
Within three months dozen more mills
will have 1t in operation, and every other
manufacturing firm is eagerly awaiting
the completion of the various pipe lines.
Six glass factories in the city and seven
in near towns are using it. Every brew
cry in the city uses it, instead of coal.
There has not as yet been enough gas to
spare for domestic purposes, and only a
few dwellings, comparatively speaking,
have been able to get it for their stoves
and CRATES. Two Of the largest hotels
use 1t entirely in their kitchens. Safety
inventions have been made and much of
its dangerous possibilities averted. As
a result hoasehOlders are anxi0uslv
awaiting more gas.
Within an area Of fifty miles about
Pittsburg at least dozen small towns
have discarded coal entirely, and every
dwelling house has gas in its cook stove,
parlor crate and bedroom fireplace.
Among these places are Butler, FrespOrt
Clarion. Tarentum, Kittenning, Oil City,
Wsllsburg, Apollo, and Murraysville.
There are no ashes to remove, no sOety
fireplaces to kindle in the morning. A
thumb valve regulates the flame, brick
bats In the CRATE distributeit and retain
the heat and 1t may be kept burning low
all night to have the house warm In the
morning.

The Changes of Structure Which the Ma

Indianapolis dispatch to New York
Times For fourteen years State GeOlO-
gist COllett has been experimenting up
on q theory that the best OF iron, when
subject to continuous strain, would I'M
dergo changes in its structure which
would. after time, render its use
dangerous, and that these structural
changes were the explanations of many
otherwise inexplicable accidents, partic-
ularly to railroad bridges. He has late
ly taken systematic Investigation,
which has resulted In confirmation Of
his theory. For experiment he took from
the Wabash dam at Delphi number Of
bolts and spikes which were, when the
dam was constructed, OF the best qnality
Of malleable bar iron, as is shown from
the battering of the head when they were
put into the structure, OF these bolts
and spikes he found that 70 per cent Of
the whole number were as weak as cast
iron, while 80 per cent of those which
were near the bottom of the dam were
worthless. Yet, of those which were rot
ten, the tips where inserted in immOva-
BILE rocks were fbrOus and strong. When

structure. similar effect is found In
1.-The partings" or horseback" in coal
mines, which become polished and stri-
ated by the continuous Qulver and mo-
ton of the crust Of the earth. DR.. Col
lett says that all car axles, after a rea-
sOnable run, become crystaliZed two
thirds of the length from the hub and
One-third from the outside extremity,
rendering them worthless. On one Indi-
ana railroad bridge he found that the
bottom parts Of the vertical strain pieces
were crystalized for from two to four
feet In length, and, as a caution against
what would inevitably haye caused q
great catastrophe, they were replaced.
The matter is ono of great interest to
railways, and the specimens which DR..
COllstt has collected in his experiments
are to be sent to the Stevens institute of
technology, where an investigation Of
the subject has been in progress for sew
