small balcony IS reached, which enclr-
eles the aeye" OF the inner dome, which
Is sixty feet IN diameter. just above
this balcony IS the great canopy OF ale
Rorlca paintings, which, seen from the
floor Of the rotuuda, Is the completion
OF the conoava ceiling. The stairs then
taking an angel outward, passes over
this canopy TO the upper balcony, which
surrounds the base of the lantern cupo-
Ia. THE lantern cupOla is so called
from the fact that during q uight session
of Congress lights are kept burning

THE CAPITOL NOT FINISHED.
To the eve the capitol building is a
complete structure, and indeed IL Is,
but as this mighty republic, feared by
every country, has outgrown its leglS-
lative hall in the past, as Is will In the
future. After the dome was hnlshed
the edifce was thought complete, but,
as before, new improvements were touno
to be needed, and in 1882 work was
begun on the marble terrace
which makes a beauteOus Improvement
to the west front, and at the same time
added the much needed room for com.
mittees and other purposes. As 1t has
been the mark Of her country's I'm
provement in the past so will this struc-
ture, which has been the home of the
most noted men since the beginning OF
the Nineteenth century, be an immor-
tai place where our Improvements will
be statued by stone upon stone, block
upon block, never ending as we pro-
gresS.

ago this summer Cardinal Gibbons was
consecrated bishop, and the silver an
niversary OF his elevation to that high
Office in the church fell on August 10.
AS the cardinal was called away from
Baltimore from time to time, having TO
meet Mgr. Satolli, the pope's special
delegate in American, TO attend the
Catholic congress at Chicago and other
meetings and conferences of vital inter-
est to the church, 1t was decided to ceIe-
brate his silver jubiles on October 10,
when the anniversary Of his consecrs-
ton as archbishop Of Baltimore will also
be close az hand. So it will be 3 double
celebration that will bring all the prin'
cipal dignitaries of the Church OF Rome

The venerable Mgr. McColgan has been
invited to make the presentation ad-
dress of the gifts from the American
bishops.
l met Cardinal Gibbons last month at
Cane May, n. j. He was living in very
democratic style at the resort. lie look
ed in excellent health and he declared
he had no reason to complain Of his
years.
Cardinal Gibbons was made vicar
Iaposrolic Of North Corolina with the
repK aud title of bishop in 1860, and
was consecrated August 16 Of that year
by Archbishop Spalding, Of the cathe-
drsl in Baltimore. In 1877 he was ap-
pointed coadjutor to rchbishop Bailey,
of Baltimore, with the right Of success
sion. October 3, OF the same year, on
the death OF Archbishop Bailey, he sue
ceeded to the vacant see. June 30,
1856, the day Of his silver jubilee as
priest. he was invested with the In
sigma Of his rank as prince OF the
church. March II, 1887, he received
the red hat at Rome.
One OF the notable features OF the
cardinals jubilee exercises will be the
singing of the famous Sistine Chapel
choir from the Vatican. This choir,
composed of forty voices, will sing at
the worlds fair by special permission
of the pope. Before proceeding to Chi
cago the pope's singers will visit Balti-
more. This is the first time the Vati-
can choir has ever been permitted TO
leave Rome as an organization.

until after the jubilee exercises. ne

elry, pectoral cross, episcopal ring,
crozier chalice and archiepiscopal cross.

been duplicated. The cardinals gifts
, came from q number Of bishops OF the
church, principal among whom are
Archbishop Ryan, OF Philadelphia:
Bishop Keane, the rector of the Catho-
lie university at Washington, and Bish-
Cd O'Farrell, OF Trenton, n. j. The

Coon HOLLOW, n. c., Feb. 12.-Un-
usually cold weather has prevailed in
eastern North Carolina the last month.
Bullfrog Pond covers an area of only an
acre and has never been known to be
frozen over until this winter.
A week ago, while the surface of every
congealed to n depth of twelve or fifteen
inches, the waters of Bullrog Pond were
free from ice. in the afternoon of that
day the largest flock of wild geese ever
seen in this portion of the State came
from the north and alighted in the pond.
BY some freak of nature, on that night,
for the first time in it's history, Bullfrog
Pond was frozen over, and the whole
flock of geese were, to all appearance,
helpless prisoners, bound one to another
by an unyielding cake of ice several in
ches in thickness.
When Henry Simpson discovered this
state of affairs he rushed among the
geese, followed by his wife and two sons
and began as they supposed, the work
of determination.
But the negroes had made woefu
mistake. An old gray-headed gander
| the patriarch of the flock, gave a loud
squak, which was Immediately answered
by his lieutenantS from every quarter Of
the pond. Simult aneously more than
three thousand wings began to flap. In
an instant the geese arose above the
| tree tops, carrying with them a solid
cake of ice and the Simpson family.
From that hour to this not the slig hit
est tidings have been received from the
unfortunate negroes, and their fate viii
doubtless ever remain a mystery.
Simpsons taking away gathers pc
culiar sadness from the fact that ht
leaves behind an aged grandmother, who
| is no entirely dependent on the charity
of neighbors for support.-New Yorl

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1+'-Shortly after
the recent illness of of one Of the children
of the Presidents household, when the
patient had become convalescent, the
President decided to have the White
House fumig gated, and in the meantime
the family moved to the Arlington.
The Health Office turned the job over to
the public poundmaster. who, together
with several assistants, tumigated the
house from top to bottom.
When the President day or two ago
went to get some private papers and
jewelry which he had left at the White
House, he was informed that both papers
and jewelry had been burned.
Although the President does not ac-
cuse anyone, he intends to make an
investigation.
Proof tha t the papers had been burned
was shown the President, but all trace
of the jewe1ry seems to be lost. The
iewelry consisted of heirlooms and relics,
and had been in the Presidents family
for many YearS-N. y. Sun.

TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. 16.-At s a. T.
the Republican House was still bcsicgcd
in Representative hall, and Il force of
State militia was posted about the Capt.
tol. Col. Hughes declined to obey
the Governors orders to eject
the Republicans, and the only
resource, the Governor has. besides the
regular militia, is three companies of
provisional troops. composed of Popu-
lists, who, of course, sympathize with
the Populist intentions. They would
doubtless make an attempt to carry out
the order and reject Republicans.
Col. Warner, who has planned the Re-
publican campaign, says OF these provis-
ional companies: They are the Gov
erner's pet lambs. We are wolves now
and would devour them if given an OPP
portunity.'
The outlook is a belligerant one. The
refusal of Col. Hughes to obey the Gov
ernor's order has baked the Populist
proGrame. The Governor will make no
statement as to his plans for the day,
but it is believed they include an order
to the provisional troops to eject the
Republicans. Should that attempt be
made, it will be met with armed resis-
tance on the part of the Republicans.
NOoN.-Col. ]. +. Hughes commanding
t he Kansas national guard, has, for the
third and last time, notified Governor
Lewelling that he will not take charge
of The militia. 1t is probable the Gov
| ernor will appoint another commander.
