Their stomachs soon become debilitatgd M

no wonder that they cannot build w the
system nor repair the waste Of tissue. 1t IS
now well known that cod-liver oil forms
use In like. manner iron, not only in the
treatment of consumption, but in general
practice. In the United states there Is prob.
ably no disease, SO universally fatal and so
universally feared, ns consumption. There
are few households where there has not been
at least one death from II. The public, as
decided that medicinal agents having the char
acter OF food are the only things that have any
value in the treatment of disease. There Is

Representative Rankin, OF Wisconsin, was
still alive last night, although there is but little
hope Of his recovery. The physicians in at.
tendance say, however, that he may live for
some time.
The disease from which Mr.. Rankin Is ac-
lively suffering is Brlghts disease, and was con-
tracted about year ago. Just before the con-
vcning of Congress he announced his intention
OF coming here, although advised not to do so
by his friends IL was ut that time that he
made the now celebrated remark: ~ am going
TO be sworn In II die the next hour" on the
journey here he was compelled TO rest several
times, and, although he was In his seat and
sworn in ON the openlng day, he has not been
at the capitol since. He has kept his room at
his home, 1927 n street, and has been slowly
sinking. Yesterday morning his limbs became
paralyzed, and he was unconscious for most of
The time. He regained consciousness yesterday
morning and said that he was feeling miserable.

CAPITOL VENTILATION.
What An Old Employe Thinks About
the Present System,

1--WE hear some complaint every once in
while about bad ventilation in the Senate and
the House of Representatives" said an old
employe Of the latter body yesterday to re.
porter of the NATIONAL REPUBLICAN. swell, l
can tell you something about II that hasn't yet
been aired in the newspapers. Have you ever
been up above the glass ceiling of the House
when oil the gas lights are burning? No?
Well, If you had you would find the thermom-
eter registering as high as 225o at times. This
immense heat, OF course, creates a great cur
rent of air In the chamber below as IL rises.
The ventilating registers of the House and
Senate which Is precisely in the same fix as
the House, are on the old plan. The hot air
registers are at the bottom and the escape regis.
tiers are at the top. You can easily imagine
when there Is such great DRAFT where the gas
jets are above the ceiling that the hot air
coming from the registers. which is supposed
TO be fresh and circulate through the cham.
Der, will rise directly up and obey natural
laws by rushing to the vacuum created above.
In this way the original theory of ventilation
is defeated. A good many authorities on such
subjects have commented upon this when they
visit up here, and think the drift of their
criticisms is Just this The hot air register and
escape register should both be at the floor,
while the draft created by the lights above
should be cut cn. The latter object might be
accomplished In several ways, one of which
would be to supersede the gas by arc electric

A Western Fish Fraud story.

clever case Of swindling which is being prac-
ticed among the farmers of the eastern states
by western firm. The head of this firm bears.
by strange coincidence, the name of prof.
Baird" and the scheme which they are prac.
ticing Is TO mail circulars to farmers and others
their places with carp, telling them that for 81
the fish would be sent them. The farmers
nearly oil replied, iHclosing the amount stlpu-
lated, but, Of course, received no answer. In
order to obtain fish II is necessary for the ap.
plicant to secure the Endorsement of the member
OF Congress from his district. and of course,
the firm had no INFLUENCE in the matter.

II is understood that the Senate decided to call

will refer all such TO the heads of departments

and decide upon plan of action.
