MEN YORK, March N.-Badminton Is a fash

Consequently the week has been largely given
over to the sport by the beaux and bellies. Four
badminton clubs have secured quarters for the
penitsntial season, which is the only one of the
year in which the game Is considered stylish.

but Is played indoors. Each Of the four organi-
cations has a rooted space for tin one instance

The bevies of'girls who resort TO them are In
variably accompanied by matrons as chaperones,
because on no account could swell maidens be
permitted to mingle with fellows without married
supervision. Badminton is easily un-
derstood, though il affords opportunity
for considerable skill, and especially for
the display Of graceful pantomime in

ing of the New House Rules.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, March 27.-Ex-Speaker Ran
dali is accused Of taking iendsh delight in see-
ing the present rules of the House put to severe
tess, and seeing them shown up In their weak
nesses as often as possible. It was supposed
that when the new rules were made and adopted,
at the beginning of Congress, the old Gus
tom of announcing. when an appropriation bill is
reported from a committee, that points Of order
would be reserved, had been abolished. For
many years it had been the custom. when an APP
preparation bill was reported, to ses members
who felt special interest in it examine the bill
closely, and if they saw anything they objected
TO in the bill, on the ground of irrelevancy, to
announce, before the bill was taken under con-
sideration, that they would reserve points Of or
der upon Questionable features; that is, they
would give notice that when the sections con-
tanning the Questionable matter were reached,
they would make point of order against them
and try TO have them ruled out
Mr.. Randall, who is considered one OF the best
parliamentarans in Congress- observed. at the
time be was a member Of the committee on rules,
that they did not destroy the old custom and
that points of order under the new rules might
Zoe made as OF yore, while it appeared on the
face OF the rules, however, that the custom of
making points of order under the reserve" sys-
tenn had been abolished. So. the other day,
when tho Indian appropriation bill was under
consideration, and point of order was made,
PR Randall is accused Of having employed his
little hnesse in breaking down that portion of the
new rules and making it ridiculous He did it,
however, through another member Mr.. Nelson
Of Minnesota. When the point Of order had
been sustained. Mr.. Randall readjusted himself
in his chair drew his spectacles close up to his
face, put his hands on the arms Of his chair, and
wheeling around. survived the whoIe Houca
with smile OF sclf-satisfaction that was noticed
by everyone. Il is predicted that work upon ap-
preparation bills, under the new rules, will be
very much retarded, and that great deal of in
convenience will hereafter be- experienced owing

and Objection Is Made to Printing It.
WASHINGTON. March 27.-The Chaplain's
prayer this morning was as follows:
s'Give ear. oh God of Jacob, and awaken US
to see the danger which threatens the civilized
world-a revolution more tremendous than any
of which history tells, In which the scenes Of the
reign of terror may be enacted in every capital
of Europe and America For long the few have
mastered the many, because they understand
the open seoret-the tools to them that can use
them; but now the many have learned the Sc
cret of organization, drill, and dynamite.
Rouse the rich of the world to understand that
the time has come for grinding, selfish monop-
oily to cease, that corporations may get souls in
them, with justice, honor, conscience and
human kindness. Teach the rich meu Of
this country that great fortunes
are lent them by Thee for other
purposes than to build and decorate palaces, to
found private collections of art. to stock wine
cellars to keep racing studs and yachts and
find better company than host.ers, grooms and
jockeys, booksellers and book makers Teach
them, God, that it Is Thee who has given them
power to get their fortunes that it is to prove
them, to know what is in their hearts.
whether they will keep Thy commandments or
no, and that those commandments are, Thou
shalt love the Lord, thy God, with all thy
heart, and thy neighbor as myself That if
the rich men Of the land keep these command
ments the poor will follow the example, and we,
at least. will be saved from the days of tribula-
ton that are fast coming on all the world
Help US, o God and save u.s."
Mr.. Grosvenor, of Ohio, asked unanimous
consent that the prayer be printed in the Rec
ord.
Mr.. James, Of New York, objected, remarking,
soto voce, to gentlemen who asked him to with
draw his objection, that it was made because the
prayer was an iucendiary speech.
@The session was devoted to discussion of the
silver question.

wOSIEN's DRESS.

Miss Cleveland's Only Distinct Idea ON This
Greas and Absorbing Question.
Special to tho indianapolis Journal.
NEW YoaK, March 27.-The dress question
was presented to Miss Rose Elizabeth Cleveland
by coteris of New York women before she had
been three months in the White House. From
sar Collegs as to what they had once heard her
say In lecture to the pupils, it WAS believed
that she held advanced views on the subject
AS these women. belonging to wealthy and
fashionable clique of New York society, were
getting up sort of literary entertainment In
connection with church charity one of them
wrote to Miss Cleveland asking if she would
come here to epeak about costume reform. The
enterprise failed, but the following letter-the
original Of which is now in the hands Of your cor
respondent--was received from the Presidents
sister. In view Of the agitation In Washington
as TO low corsages at the White House, its ex-
pressions are worth repeating.
my Dear Miss -: 1 would be very happy
to oblige you 10 the request you make, but the
more prosaic duties Of my present position
with so poetic theme as the ideal womans cos
tune. have so many letters to write also that
can give very little attention to the compost
ton of any That should be literary labor Of
which my pressing duties in the White House
render me incapable--in spite of the careful ap-
pending of Washington to old articles of mine,
exhumed and republished in the newspapers by
enterprising editors Of to-day. This reference
was to the Christian at Work. which had turned
passage from one Of Miss Cleveiand's lectures
into fresh letter from Washington.-Edl
can only, therefore, say. my dear Miss -,
that in looking over into my rather nebulous and
very general ideas on the subject of woman's
dress, as it is and as 1t should be, find ore very
distinct conviction-f but one-thst woman
should always dress becoming.y. The law of
beauty will finally be ascertained and will pre-
vail And because the beautiful, and the true.
and the good are interchangeable terms neither
you nor need fear that when that good time is
reached, woman will shock the esthetic taste by
immodest, extravagant or unhealthful attire.
1t is great subject, and am sorry cannot
write you more satisfactorily, but perhaps some
day can Very truly yours,

A srocK-JoBBINa DEVICE.

The Scheme by Which Cyrus W. Field In
creased His Wealth.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
NEW York, March 27.-Ons :of the develop
ments Of the labor move in this city is tho ex-
posture of clever device by Cyrus w. Field to
affect the prics of Manhattan railway stock.
About year ago. experiments with electrical
motors began to be made with view-so it was
asserted-of discardiug steam and using cleo
tricity on the elevated railroads Of this city.
Day after day the Mail and Express, owned by
Cyrus w. Field, published accounts of the doings
Of rival motor companies-one headed by Da-
vid Dudley Field, it,. professional electrician,
and the other based on the Edison inventions.
In the one case motor was CON-
structed in city shop. while as to
the other the descriptions were based ON the
old experimental railway built by Edison down
in Jersey. The press was repeatedly invited to
send reporters to see the things. but suspicion
that they were not as ingenious as they were In
genious prevented the subject from being taken
up by the editors. But the Mail and Express
Kept on setting forth In long and vivacious
articles that trains would soon be run on the
elevated tracks by electricity, at one-fourth the
cost Of stean. At length. mile OF third rail,
which was to carry the electrical current, was
laid, and Mr. Field snnounoed that the time for
practical wonders had come. He had once been
gloriously connected with one electric marvel,
the laying of the first Atlantic cable. but now .
greater thing was going to be accomplished.
just at this time, according to Wall-strest rumor
(but which, 1t is fair to say. cannot be substan-
tiaued), Mr. Field unloaded large block of
Manhattan stock at price enhanced by the
talk of electrical locomotives Since then nothing
has been done towards changing from steam to
electricity. The mile of third rail lies useless.
The Wall street people regard it as evidence Of a
shrewd stock butler that has served the only pur-
pose for which it was ever intended. But the
locomotive engineers were more credulcus. They
feared that their services might soon be dis
pensed with, In favor of men who understood
the proposed new machines. It is now learned
that when the strike OF the horse-car men was
under way. and the elevated engineers were
asked to alphabetically tie up, their organi-
cation decided that they were not bound to do
SO; but at the same time they took advantage of
the situation to find out whether their positions
were periled by the electrical motor project A
committee went to the superintendent with the
question, and he replied that they had no ground
whatever for fright on that point

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, March Ex-senator Payne, Of
Ohio, is probably the most carelessly-dressed
man in the upper house of Congress. am told
that during the past few weeks he has grown
very careless In this respect and that in years
past he used to be very neat. Going up the

plain narrow black silk tie, which had evil
IDENTIFY seen many years of service. 1t was tied
in half bow in front and pinned to the collar
behind about half way up. so that it's ragged
edge was more prominent than its body. The
investigation into Mr.. Payne's election has
caused him so much trouble, however, that he
probably does not care whether his boots are
blackened or his clothes brushed once month.
