with q Silver wreath-NIass Meeting at
Cooper Union This Evening.
NEW York, May 4-The Polish resi-
dents of the United States are to-day cele-
brating the centenary of the constitution
Of Poland.
Delegates from the different Polish So
cieties in the country now in this city
represent about . million Poles scattered
throughout the United States. Unlike
the people of other nations their influence
has never been felt in America politically.
Lack of education has been one of their
greatest obstacles to surmount. Added to
this is the constant strife among them
selves, which prevents the formation of
any Polish organization on a solid basis.
At to-day's celebration all differences
are buried, and an attempt will be made
for the formation of a strong polish union.
To-Day's Celebration.
The celebration opened this morning
with a memorial service in the Church of
ST. Stanislaus. This was followed by a
procession, many of the participants
wearing the picturesque costume of their
native land. During the parade the
statue of Washing'o on in Union Square
was crowned with d silver wreath.
delegation was sent to West Point to
place on Kosciusko's monument a silver
wreath, while the Statue of Liberty will
receive the same attention at the hands
of another delegation.
Mass Meeting Tonight.
This evening a mass meeting will be
held in Cooper Union, where delegates
from the Sons of the Revolution and the
Pan Republican Congress will be the
guests of honor.
1t is announced that Secretary Blaine
has been invited to address the meeting
and that Governor Hill will be present
Mayor Grant will take part.
Nine. Theopile Kraemer, the beautiful
Polish patriot, will also address the meet
ing, and Count Wodzicki, a loyal son of
Poland, will take prominent part in the
proceedings. A grand ball will wind up
the occasion. Four hundred bronze and
silver medals will be distributed in COM
memoration of the centennial.
The event which the Poles of America
are celebrating to-day was the last great
effort of n number of noble patriots,
who were trying to stay the downfall of
their country. In 1888 remarkable Diet
was convened which lasted four years,
md the constitution of 1891 was the re-
suit of the deliberation of that Dict. The
effort was made too late to be effective,
and another sad page Was added to the
history of the country.
The Kingdom of Poland ceased to ex-
st in May, 1854. During recent years
he Polish language has been suppressed,
nd the present Gear has sought by every
.ossible means to Russianize the land.

THE house did considerable work again
yesterday; but the bills considered were
not in heavy proportion to the bills intro
duced.
REPRESENTATIVE kEARNEY, the veter-
an democrat from Stutsman, keeps his
eyes wide open, and no bill passes without
he understands it. If doubtful as to the
meaning of its provisions, he's not ashamed
to ask for information. That's right.
A RED RIVER valley member: Do you
have this kind of weather out here every
winter? Why, down at Fargo yesterday
there were three inches of snow. This
must be a good country for stock.

FRO BE coNTrNUED.I
Dogs ana Their Afteotions.

1t has often been mooted as a yexed
question why all men of genius or
greatness are so fond of dogs. The
reason is rot far to seek. Those who
are great or eminent in any way find
the world full of parasites, toadies,
liars, fawners, hypOcrites; the incor-
ruptible candOr, loyalty and honor
of the dog are to such like water in a
barren place to the thirsty traveller.
The sympathy OF your dog is unfailing
and unobtrusiVe. If you are sad, so
is he; and if you are merry, none is
so willing TO leap and laugh with you
as he. For your dog you are never
poor: for your dog you are never old;
whether you are in palace or a cot
. tage he does not care; and fall you as
low as you may, you are his prOYi-
dence and his idol still. The attach
ment of the dog to man Outweighs
and almost Obliterates attachment in
him to his own race. There is some
thing shocking to our high opinion
Of him in the callOusness with which
he will sniff at the stiff body of a
brother dog; he will follow his mas
ter to the grave, and sometimes die
on it; but the loss of his own kind
leaves him unmoyed. I never knew
more than one exception to this; it
was, however, a noteworthy one.
1 had two puppies of the Moiussus,
commonly called the Maremma,
breed; large, white, very beautiful
dogs, with long hair; varying in size
between a Newfoundland and a collie;
the old Greek race of watch-dOgs to
which, quite certainly, Argos be-
longed. These puppies, named Pan
and Paris, lived together, fed, played
and slept together, and were never
separated for a moment for seven
months. In the seventh month Paris
fell i'll Of distemper and died. Now,
by my own observation l can declare
that Pan nursed his brother as assidu-
Ously as any boy could have nursed
another; licked him, cleaned him,
brought him tempting bits to eat;
did all that he could think Of, and
when his brother at last lay there
cold and unresponsive to his efforts,
/ his grief and establishment were
painful to see. From that time he
ceased to play; from being a very
/ lively dog he grew grave and sad, he
| had wistful wondering inquiry in
his eyes which it was pathetic to be-
/ hold; and although he lived for many
/ years after, and was as happy as a
! dog can be, he never recovered his
/ spirits; he had buried his mirth in
/ the grave of Paris. Something was
/ lost for him with his brother which
/ he never regained. This is the only
instance I have known of a dogs love

What Are Pearls ?

Pearls are carbonate of lime, the
same substance of which the shell OF
the oyster is composed, and are iden-
titled with the "mother of pearl'
which forms the interior of the pearl
oyster shell. A high temperature
will reduce nypearl to common lime,
and in the heat of an ordinary fire a
pearl will completely lose its identity
and become a pinch of white powder.
Ali precious stones are injured by a
high temperature: the diamond being
almost pure carbon, is completely
consumed at a temperature somewhat
greater than white heat. When the
Southern Hotel was burned in this
city some years ago, a lady guest left
her diamonds in her room. As the
gems were large and valuable, careful
search was made for them after the
ruins had cooled, and they wore
found; but the intense heat had COW
cred every stone with a white crust,
where partial combustion had taken
place. Rubies, sapphires and emer'
aids lose their color on exposure to
heat, while the semi-precious stones
such as the amethyst, topaz and gar
net, are completely ruined by a COM
paratively low heat. - st. Louis

sickness and Starvation.

There is a popular notion to the
effect that person is more likely to
take a contagious disease when the
stomach is empty. Although this
fact seems to be well established by
experience, nevertheless it has never
been established as a scientific fact
until recently. Experiments which
have lately been made upon pigeons,
by two italian physicians, demon
strate beyond any reasonable doubt
that hunger is favorable to the activ-
ity of the infectious element, what:
ever it may be. Pigeons that had
been starved were found to be very
susceptible to the cOntagiOn of an
thrax, although, when well fed, they
were not at all subject to this dis
ease. 1t thus appears that hunger in
some way lessons the ability of the
body To defend itself from the attack
of disease germs. Possibly this may
be in part due to the fact that when
a person is hungry there is no gastric
juice in the stomach, so that the pro-
tecting influence of this digestive
fluid is lost Then, too, tide lowering
of the vital powers, as the result of
hunger, lessons the resistance Of the
cells of the body in general.
