WASHINGTON, Aug. THE capitol is
clean, bright, comfortable and gratifying
tothe newly assembled Fifty-third congress.
For the past two weeks it has been upset,
dusty, ~dismantled, with chairs and desks
all about for the unwary to stumble over,
with huge rolls of carpets in the Hobbies.
The upholsterers, the painters, the plumb
ers and the scrubbers have been bounced,
and congress meets in halls sweet and in
viting.
Heated debates over the financial situa-
ton may warm the blood Of some of the
members, but those who preserve even
tempers find that much of the talk about
the terrors Of the dog days in Washington
is bosh. and the capitol is the coolest place
in town. Within it's massive walls the
rays of the sun do not penetrate. The cool
breezes from the Potomac sweep in the
southern windows and play hide and seek
with one another in the shadowy corridors.
The heavy furnishings of winter are gone,
and there are cold air ducts by means of
which fresh outside air may be pumped
into the building whenever the torridity of
debate raises the temperature. Altogether
the good wives at seashore or country re-
treats need not worry and fret because
''poor John, you know, has to go to
that frightfully hoe Washington in Au-
gust to help save the country and make
the finances safe again" John can take
care of himself and find a little fun
in doing it, too. even if the weather
is warm and fashionable society out of
town. The best advice his better half
can give him is to take the cable cars
and ride up the hill on which the capitol
stands, for the walk in the glare Of the sun
is heating, and he may catch cold from
cooling off too rapidly within the shady,
breezy recesses of the building.
The heavy portieres and curtains have
been taken down about the cloakrooms
and Hobbies of the senate chamber, the
dusty carpets removed, and fresh, sweet
smelling mating laid, The desks have
been put in order and polished, a large sup
ply of fans secured, and a larger stock of
apollinaris and lemons stored away to be
prepared by a colored artist as thirst
quenchers. Colonel Dick Bright has sue
ceeded Sergeant at Arms Valentine. and he
has studied so long how to pluck the good
things of life by the wayside that no fear is
entertained of u failure to make things
comfortable. Over on the house side the
members have to chip in from their private
purse whenever they wish lemons and
water. This is one result Of going out of
power every w years. Like all other con-
tinuing bodies, the enc gathers a little
moss with increasing age, and when once
an addition is made to its perquisites never
~relinquishes it. There was a great howl
when it was discovered that out Of it's
elastic contingent fund the senators had

BRINGING ~ BILLS.
How New Measures Arc Introduced Int
the English Pprlia ment.

Always at the beginning Of parlia-
ment there are a hundred members
who, having found as many subjects
calling for legislation, announce their
readiness to introduce bills. The tame
honored process of bringing in bills is
thus described by the author Of "A
Diary of the Salisbury Parliament
The speaker. holding in his hand .
long list of notices given the day be-
fore, calls the names OF the members
in succession Mr.. Murphy" calls the
speaker. Mr.. Murphy raises his hat,
whereupon the speaker says: The
question is that leave be given to
bring IN bill to- and he reads a de-
seription of the bill Of which Mr.. Muir
ply has given notice.
Who is prepared 70 bring in this
bill?" asks the speaker. Then Mr..
Murphy rises and reads out the names
Of the members who indorse his bill.
and the speaker goes on 70 the mex. on
the list
As the speaker approaches the end Of
the list members who are 70 bring In
bills struggle for places az the bar Of
the house. The speaker calls on the
member whose name heads the list
