which gives to a single member the right
to object wheu unanimous consent Is
asked. THE business OF the House."
said Mr.. Dunn yesterday, lis often re-
tarded by 4 single crank denying unanim-
Gus consent. When the business en- hand
could be done In . few moments, action
is often prevented for weeks py this OBJ
struction. Unanimous consent should be

the well known violinist, next rendered
a fine selection, accompanied by George
Weston on the piano. AS an encore he

She is short and plump and has dark,
wayy hair, bright black eyes, a good skin
and a nose of the ~retrousse pattern. She
strongly resembles her sister and guardian,
Mrs. Herman Oelrichs, under whose aus
pices she made her debut In society. but is
neither as tall nor as graceful. She is a
very pious Roman Catholic, and there were
rumofs some years ago that she desired to
enter one Of the religious orders of that
church. Another rumor last year said that
she was engaged to be married to Prince
Andre Poniatowski, but it was quite incor-
rect.
Miss Fairs father, ex-senator James G..
Fair of Nevada, is one Of California's multi.
millionaises and made his fortune on the
Comstock. She will probably inherit a
large share of his wealth, but would be
very well provided for without it, as her
mother, who died two years ago, left her
S 1,5o0,000 to be paid when she reached the
age of IS. and a monthlyincome of $500.
