REEDS FIGHT ON SILVER,
THE PARLIAMENTARY BATTLE
GOES AGAINST HIM.

The Question of Considering the Bill,
However, Not Reached-A Compro-
mise Proposition That May Unite
the Tangle Into Which the House
Has Drifted-Chaplain Mlburn's
Prayer.
WASHINGTON, June 20.-Blind Chaplain
Milburn prayed this morning that the fe-
vered pulse of theHouse might be cooled. The
prayer was quickly answered, for the House
showed very little excitement in the five
hours session of this afternoon. At the end
of the day it had accomplished nothing in
the silver matter except to approve the
Journal of yesterday as amended. The
silver bill still lies in the committee on coin
age, and will remain there in all probability
until Speaker Reed chooses to let it out.
He Will probably be ready by tomorrow if
the compromise proposed by the moderate
silver men can be arranged.
WHAT 1T CONCENTRATES.
This contemplates Recommendation from
the coinage committee that the House nom
concur in the Senate amendments. and that
the House agree to this so that the bill may
be sent to conference with the understand
ing that in conference the bill shall be fixed
up as it was when it left the House, only
(and this is the important feature) leaving
out the provision for bullion redemption,
which Speaker Reed crowded into the bill
before it went TO the Senate, Speaker Reed
is believed to be willing TO agree to this as a
way out of the difficulty. and the extreme
silver men, it is said, can be brought in.
What. the Senate would do is of course
problematical, but there is reason to believe
that in the end the Senate would agree.
DEFEAT FOR REED.
The parliamentary battle went against
the speaker to-day, but the real question of
the consideration of the bill was not
reached. Speaker Reed and Mr.. McKin-
ley were defeated on the merely tactical
vote, but when it came to a question of
considering the antitrust conference report
and so delaying the silver business, they
were enabled to take I'D the report by a
large majority. Mr.. McKinleY's fight was,
therefore. for delay, and he resorted to
something like 6libustering to help
im-flibustering which, of course,
Speaker Reed thought all right under
the circumstances Speaker Reed counts
on the votes of some republicans who are
out of town, Mr.. Bayne. for example, and
thinks that on the square issue of concurring
or rnon-concurring the republicans would
be more than offset by the anti-silver demo
Gratis. He does not like the difficulty he is
in. He does not like the crocodile sympa-
thy rendered him to-day by various repub-
lican leaders, but he thinks he will come
out all right, and without loss of prestige.

Curious People,

1t doesn't take much to attract crowd
in New York. Let two gamins start
across Fourteenth street on run any
afternoon, and before they have gone a
block there will be a hundred people at
their heels, all running. No one but the
boys know what's up, but the crowd
rushes thither without any inquiring.
Let man stop on corner in plain view
and gaze intently at the sky. and in ten
minutes fifty or more people will have
gathered about him and directed their
gaze heavenward. Only New Workers
would do this. Curiosity is the common
failing. I witnessed noteworthy Incl
dent of this character the other evening.
1t was at the corner of Sixth avenue and
Fourteenth street.
A man halted at the foot of the ele-
waited station and pointed his umbrella
toward the rear of the corner house.
He did it to demonstrate the extent of
New Workers. curiosity. He stood there
half minute, when q second man halt
ed. Then third stopped, and within
five minutes the street was blocked and
the street cars couldn't move. Several
policemen were there, too, and all gaz-
ing at the rear wall. Some one said
thieves were climbing over the roofs,
and other stories equally ridiculous were
bruited about. Fully 600 people stood
there, not knowing why they did SO. 1t
was half an hour before the streets were
cleared. d.-New York Star.

ago, or even two years ago, the results
here would have been memorable. As
it is. the storm is likely to pass without
touching us even with it's periphery.
1t is likely, on the contrary, to do us
good. The era of failure now in vogue
will cause many tottering concerns to
wind up their affairs. Out of the wreck
there is always something saved. Many
people who have had their minds set on
coming to California as soon as they
could dispose OF their business will now
make the best of their misfortune and
come at once. with whatever they can
save from the general ruin.

ONE of the ablest experts in this city
has gone exhaustively over the accounts
of ex-tax-collector Platt, and as the
result of these labors declares that this
officials accounts are correct to within a
very few dollars. Mr. Platt is Repub-
lican in politics, and the attempt to
prove him derelict has been entirely the
work of his own party. The work has
been mostly done by office-h holders of
that party. The HERALD has all along
refused to think the man guilty OF any
intentional fraud or actual defalcation.
Our view has been solely in the interest
of fair play. His trouble all arose from a
desire to defeat him for denomination,
and that was done because he refused to
stand pat with his party in all cases,
and preferred to preserve portion at
least of his manhood. The HERALD
thinks it is for the best interest of the
people that office-holders should at times
prefer to rise notch or two above party
ties. There are times when the public
interest demands this at the hands of
the Office holders, and we believe the
spirit ought to be cultivated.

Church Ventilation.

We wish somebody would give us
few practical views as to the ventilation
of churches. By the time religious
service on Sunday is half through the
church often becomes SO hot the air SO
impure and the hearers so sleepy that
little good is done by the sermon. We
wish architects were half as solicitous
about ventilation as they are about the
turn of an arch or the groove of pillar.

DEACON HARRISON and lingo Blaine do
a great deal of loud talking about the
fur seals and their protection. Mean-
time the talk fails to frighten the poach-
ers away from the rookeries, and the
seals are nearly all gone. One more
spring of such slaughter as the last, and
there will be nothing left to protect and
nothing to fight for. Talk is cheap, but
it takes some decisive action to drive
the poachers from the seas.

The Importance of climatology is grad
ually becoming recognized. Noone can
doubt that of the many factors which
contribute to help or hinder physical well
being, very large share must be at
tributed to climate, understood in its
widest sense-i. e., to those conditions
of atmosphere and soil which are con-
stantly operating upon us by day and by
night. The air we breathe, its temper
ature, humidity, pressure and purity,
the amount of sunshine we receive, the
character of the winds to which we are
exposed, the nature of the soil on which
we reside, all these factors have a po-
tent influence upon the organism in
health, and still more potent influence
upon it in its more unstable and sensi-
tive condition when the subject of dis
ease.
While few will care to question such
obvious considerations, climatology is
still comparatively neglected, and does
not yet rank where it will probably
some day stand-viz., alongside hygiene
and dietetics. The reason for this COM
parative neglect is probably the vague
ness which has hitherto for the most part
surrounded this subject, and the paucity
of accurate and definite data relating to
it. 1t is also unfortunate that the avail
able information is so often obtainable
only from interested persons, whose
natural bias in favor of certain localities
will often, in spite of the most upright
intentions, lend more OF less unreal
coloring to their statements. York

SOME BREAD RECIPES
Most of the Washington society ladies can
make bread. Mrs. Harrison went into the
kitchen at Deer Park while she stopping
there ysar ago and made some for Judge
Tyner, who was i'll at the time. The senator's
wives are famous bread makers, and Mrs. At
torney-Generat Miller is noted for her graham
gems; Mrs. Senator Wilson of Iowa makes de-
licious light bread; Mrs. Senator Jones of Ar
kansas can make corn pone equal with hoe cake
of an old Virginia auntie. Senator Charley
Henderson says his wife makes the best corn
mullins in the world, and you cannot persuade
Senator Bate of Gernessee that there is any bet
ter recipe for breakfast bite than that which
his wife uses in making her famous egg bread.
Here it is:
Two cups Of corn meal, three cups of butter
milk, one tablespoon of lard, one teaspoon of
soda, one teaspoon of salt, one egg. Eat hot
with fresh buttermilk. [Signed.l
