New Volcano Appears in Armenia, De-

The Dix-Neuvine Steele says that
commercial advices have been received
at Marseilles from Trebizond to the ef-
feet that a new volcano has appeared in
Armenia at the summit of Mt. Nimrod,
in the district of Van, vomiting forth
flames and lava. The villages at the
base of the mountain have been de-
stroyed and many persons are said to
have been killed or injured. The fugi-
tives are camping outside the range of
destruction. They are almost entirely
destitute, and the greatest misery pre-
walls among them. The Turkish gov
ernment has taken measures to aid tho
sufferers.

sional chambers for the next meeting of
congress is now going on, and an inter-
view with the janitor and a look over the
chambers reveals some interesting facts
The seats still retain the names of the
members who occupied them during the
last congress, and afford comparative
study of cleanliness as practiced by public
men. For example, the seat occupied by
ex-Congressman Payson, of Illinois, is
without scratch or tarnish and by all odds
the least marred of any in the whole lot
Mr. Springer's desk is also free from scars
tobacco decorations. Representative
Springer neither smokes nor chews and is
unusually tidy. The desk of ex-Repre-
sentative Mckinley will not require very
much labor to be put in order.
Joe Cannon's Emphatic Gestures.
In fact, there are not many of the Hi
nois delegation in the last congress who
can be called untidy. Perhaps Uncle Joe
Cannon was the most careless, and his
desk shows marked evidences of his en-
phatic style Of gestures with which he
used to plead for the preservation of the
sundry civil bill in its pristine purity as it
had been handed DOWN by Uncle Joe's
committee on appropriations. Gen. Hen
derson. of Illinois, has won warm place
in the hearts of the janitors of the house
for the care he has exercised in preserving
his seat and desk unmarried. The venera.

COMPARISONS WITH THE SENATE.

The House of Lords Keeps Up Its Rep
utation for Dignity.
The reputation of the house for cleanli-
ness suffers by comparison with the SEN
ate. For example in the house it is neces-
sary to supply new carpet every two years,
while in the senate one lasts for four. The
members of the house are generally so
rude that Uncle Sam restricts them to
hard oaken desks, while the senators re-
cline over mahogany. Again, it is consid-
cred in keeping with the eternal fitness of
things to provide the tidy senators with a
higher grade of carpet than is supplied
for members of the house, and while an
expenditure of 81 yard suffices to sup
ply the house, the carpet which covers the
senate floor costs 81. % yard.
Quantity of Carpet Required.
1t usually takes about 800 yards double
width to cover the house, and 900 yards
to supply the senate. Up to ten years ago
those carpets were all imported, but some
stickler for home industries put forth a
patriotic protest, and Clerk Mcpherson, of
the house. and the clerk of the senate have
received orders to patronize only home
manufacturers hereafter. These orders
for carpets are always placed early in the
vacation, as the carpets must be made
after special order. When the old car
pets are taken up they are usually sold at
auction or placed in the galleries.
Carried Away for Relics.
The cloth which covers the desks is gen
orally carried away by relic hunters. There
were no less than a half-dozen demands
for the cloth which came from the late
Maj. Mckinley's desk, but a Washington
relic fiend had exercised wise forethought
by carrying it away the very day after
congress adjourned. The cloth from
Speaker Reeds throne has been scattered
to the four winds of the earth in bits none
of which exceed two inches square. The
janitor took charge of this souvenir short
ly after the house adjourned, and parceled
it out in small bits to make the supply, if
possible, meet the demand, but it failed to
do so. During the meeting of the medical
congress recently nearly every available
relic about the late house and senate was
carried away by visiting doctors.
Question of Typical Color.
Already the clerk of the house is hesitat-
ing between two colors of baize for the
desks of the next session. In view of the
influx of a number of Alliance members
it has been suggested that green would be
the proper color, while a due regard to the
slim Republican minority demands that
for at least one-half of the house blue
should prevail. Everything is expected to
be put in readiness by the first week in
November, and when the finishing
touches have been put on, visitors must
| view the elegance from the galleries.
