WASHINGTON. July mot an appoint
ment was made to-day. on account OF the
absence of the President from the city.
Tho Virginia and North Carolina cases are
temporarily hung up, and Vt may be seVe-
raj weeks before they are announced
though from what can be learned there
does not seem to be any hitch ABOUT
them. The President did not have the
tlme TO dispose of them before he lett
tho city. He has not only been very
busy, but no has not been in good heaitn
tor the past few weeks. The STRAIN upon
him has been 80 great that be was pretty
well broken down and 1t was absoiutelJ

he has been at Buzzard's Bay for Few

and in tho next patches that are nsue
public IL is probable that both virginia
and North Carolina will be inciude1;
Of course. it is possible that Mr.. GleVo-
land may not appoint Coilector OF Intoi
nal Revenue for the Western District OF
Virginia until the latter part or July.
These officers have no regular terms OF OF
fee and are subject to removal at any
time. Is had been supposed that CoiOnei
Pat. McCaull would be removed. ana ne

NAV be that the President VIII not ap-
point his successor until his term OF four
years has expired. This 10 only urmlse,

A Eracas In the Housa-

There was a personal encounter on the
floor Of the house of representatives
Feb. IS, 1898, between Roger Griswold
of Connecticut and Matthew Lyon of
Vermont, editor of The Scourge of Aris-
tocracy and Repository of Important Po-
litical Truth and one of the few victims
of the sedition law, under which he
served term in Jail and paid fine of
$1,000.
An old time cut represents the two
congressman hammering each other with
cudgel and tongs. Under gross provo
cation Lyon had spit in Griswold's face,
but at the time of the fracas the house
had not been called to order, though
prayer had been offered by the chaplain.

The Last English Rabbit.

The game of the world is decreasing

again tried. In the second trial the re-
sistance fell to II pounds per ton, the

A State Soda Fountain.

1t may sound like Munchausen yarn,
but it is an actual fact that in the squint
eyed little burg of Sodaville, in Linn
county. in block s of the town plat,
there is soda spring, and that the last
legislature, in it's infinite wisdom, pro-
vided that "inasmuch as there is a great
and growing demand on the part of the
public for the waters of said spring, )" the
state would spend $500 to improve it.
This is at last the fond realization of the
long felt want which has been loafng
around the country like the ghost OF
boyhood's happy days in quest of a
watermelon patch where haply fingered
no vicious dog. 1t is grand and i'm
posing sight to see the legislative fancy
rising from the sordid contemplation of
a cold and unresponsive hog law and
lowering on halcyon wings over the soft
murmur of an idyllic state soda foun-
tain.-Astoria Orr Budget.

WHY BOOKS ARE CHEAP.
A Machine That Prints and Folds Three
Thousand Every Hour.


Thousand Every Hour.
There are various rumors and tales
floating about town among those in the
business concerning some wonderful ma
chinery over on the west side of the city
in a certain monstrous bookmaking es-
tablishment.
The novel machine" is a large web
press similar to the kind newspapers are
printed on, but arranged to take curved
slectrotypes of each page of a book in
stead of single large metal cylinder
casting. There are two cylinders, on
each of which IA pages may be screwed,
and as the long strip of paper goes
through, first one side is printed and then
the other, making it possible to print 26S
pages at every revolution. The strip of
paper, after being carried over rollers
which dry the ink, is cut, folded and
brought together in the shape of small
volume, with the edges all trimmed. Ev-
cry time the great cylinder goes round a
novel is printed, folded and trimmed, and
5000 of these are turned out every hour,
while, if it were necessary, 1000 or 5000
might be the quota.
From the printing press these books
are carried to little machine that looks
like sewing machine. and two wire
stitches are taken in the back of each.
The stitched volumes are then carried to
the covering machine, where they are put
side to side in long feeding trough. At
the end of this is little compartment
large enough to take a book, carried on
an endless chain running over wheels at
each end. Indeed, there are series of
little compartments on this chain, and
as the chain moves along each one re-
ceives book. AS the book proceeds a
wheel running in gluepot presses
against its back, smearing it with glue.
A little further along there is a pile of
covers that comes up at just the right
moment, leaving cover sticking to the
gluey back Of the book.
In this way 90 books can be covered
every minute. Two hundred and fifty
Thousand of these paper covered novels
are thus turned out every two weeks, and
extra editions of $4,000 or so are often
worked in besides. New York CONNER

Rossini's Memory.

The composer Of E. I'll Barhiere di Sivig-

much merriment whenever Rossini' was
among company oe One day he met
Bishop, the English composer. Rossini
knew the face well enough and at once
greeted him. "Ah, my dear Mr.. -

French Servants and wealthy shopkeepers

french servants ana Wealthy Shopkeepers.
The one extravaganza of dress of the
French servant girl lies in having her
best gown made by dressmaker instead
of making it herself. Hence her corsages
always fit her well, and her plain stuff
costume has degree of style about it
which she is fully capable of appreciat-
ing. The ladies of the so called bour-
geois set-the wives and daughters of
rich shopkeepers and manufacturers-
very rarely indulge in rich fashionable
toilets. Nine Boucicaut, the foundress
of the Bon Marche, was worth millions
upon, millions. Always arrayed in black
silk or satin of excellent quality, but
made in the plainest possible style, she
looked to the last hour of her life just
what she was-the greatest and richest
shopkeeper in Paris possibly, but still a
shopkeeper, and one that never tried to
look like anything different. When the
daughter of one of these wealthy trades
people marries, her trousseau is usually
very superb, but the famous masters of
the art of dress are seldom or never
called upon to exert their inventive tai
ents in her behalf. Lucy Harper in
