The handsome marble gavel used by
President George Washington at tho lay.
ing Of the cornerstone Of the United States
capitol 100 years ago is now in possession
Of the Potomac Lodge of Masons Of George
town, by whom it is guarded with care al
most amounting to generation. For fear
that it might be STOLEN or injured, it was
ordered years ago to place the precious relic
in the strong vaults of the Farmers and
Mechanics bank, and from there it has
never been removed, except IN the order OF
the lodge. No one man is allowed to take
it in his possession even for a day.
Whenever the lodge is requested to allow
the gavel to leave the vaults to be used Mt
some cornerstone laying, a committee Of
three Is always appointed to bear the relic
company until it's return. The gavel has
been in the possession of the lodge since the
day President Washington presented it to
Master Valentine Rcntzcl of Columbia, No.
10, of Maryland, which later became known
Us Potomac lodge, No. 5. The presentation
took place Immediately after the ceremo
nies of theday which is now celebrated had
been concluded. ~
The gavel is of a fine quality OF marble
slightly yellowish in appearance and about
8 inches long. It once received through AZ
accident q severe fall, which Clipped sew
eral pieces from one of the faces, but these
are now held in place by bright gold bands

Expects to Die Before Election Day.

A year ago Levi Layman, a prosperous
farmer living near Callicoon, N. Y, had a
dream, In which, he says, his deceased wifs
appeared to him and told him he would
ioin her on or before Nov. 7, 1903. He has
implicit faith in the prediction and is pre-
pairing for his death at that time. This
year he planted no crops other than would
suffice to provide for his wants to Nov. 7.
He has made his will and intends to have
charge of the digging Of his graves and will
order his coffin and burial clothes. Lay
man has suffered from rheumatism, and
faith curists tried to heal him, but he dis
missed them, desiring their prayers in his
behalf discontinued. He Is 80 years old.

A Strange Superstition.

In Bosnia the people have believed at all
times that a bridge could not be firm and
lasting unless a human being was walled
up in it. Thus there is Il legend connected
with the handsome Roman bridge at Mos

Narenta could not be finished until the
architect walled upin it a bridal pair. Now
that a solid bridge is being built across the
Save at Brazcka this superstition is re-
vived. 1t is rumored everywhere that gyp-
sizes arc stealing children to sell them to the
contractors, who will wall one up in each

Helping the Culprit.

It often happened that the negro head-servant on the farm was stcrner censor of public morals than his mas ter. Such an Uncle Tom once told his master that q lIeg of lard had been stolen and named the thief and hiding place.
 Don't say word about it." said the master.
 Next day he rode into the field where the culprit was blowing, got down from his horse and walked along beside the man.
 What's the matter, William?" he asked, after a time. You cant look me in the face as usual"
 Then William began to cry and con- fcsscd the theft.
 Come tonight" said the master, ''and will arrange so that you can put the lard back. Nobody shall know that you took it."
 So, somewhat to the disapproval of the zealous head-servant, the culprit was shielded from punishment.-Waver- ly Magazine.

FOR THREE NEW STATES.

 Republican Senate Caucus Favors AdmIs. sion sF Oklahoma, Utah and Now Mexico. WssHINGToN, Jan. 2o.-The Republican caucus decided by majority vote to take favorable action upon the admission of the Territories of Oklahoma, Utah and New Mexico, but left Arizona out in the cold.
 The caucus developed into contest between the extreme West and the East and appears to be a victory for the younger members of the Senate.
 It is considered victory, however, in name only, for the subsequent action of the caucus negatived the result of the caucus. It was agreed that the question of the admission skould be made the or der of business to follow the discussion of the Nicaragua canal.
 After the present matter of the Chero- kee Strip is disposed of, the Senate will take up the various Interstate Commerce bills that have been or will be reported and will then begin the discussion of the Nicaragua Canal bill.
 In the meantime the appropriation bills, which have the right of way, will begin to make their appearance, and will command the attention of the Sen ators.
 It will thus be seen that the chances for the discussion of the bills for the ad- mission of these territories are very slim, and the Eastern Senators, who gave their assent to the caucus pro gramme very reluctantly, have no hesi- tancy in saying that no action whatever will be taken during this session of Con gross.

How Russian Letters Are Sealed.

Americans who chance to receive let ters from Russia are usually surprised to find the foreign postage stamp on their envelopes used as a seal-affixed, that is to say, to the center of the side opposite to that on which the address is written. Sometimes Russians set tling in the United States continue the practice acquired at home, much, of course, to the annoyance of United States post office officials A case of this kind occurred recently in New York state, but it was explained quite inadequately by a writer in the World who alleged the colonists sealed their letters with the postage stamp because communications from the United States were usually opened In the Russian post office before being delivered As a matter of fact, the habit is diffused all through Russia and simply means that distrust of the imperial post office in that country is widespread.-Free Rus sia.

FUNERAL OF BISHOP BROOKS.
Bishop Potter, of New York, Win Conduct
 the Services.

BOSTON, Jan. 25.-The funeral services over the remains of Bishop Phillips Brooks at Trinity Church tomorrow will be conducted by the Right Rev. Henry Goldman Potter, Bishop off New York, assisted by Bishop Clark, of Rhode Island, and Rev. Dr. E. Winchester Don aid, rector of Trinity Church.
 While those who are directing the ar engagements for the funeral realize the place that the late Bishop held in the hearts of the entire community within and outside the limits of his own Church, and realize as well that even roomy Trim ity will be unable to hold probably thousands who would like to be ad- mitted. they have found it necessary to govern their arrangements so as to ac- cOmmodate the members of the Church in the diocese and kindred associations, so that when that is accomplished it is doubtful if there will be any seats left for the general public.
 Arrangements have been made whereby the remains of the late Bishop Brooks will lie in state in the vestibule of Trim ity Church from $ to II T. Ill. o-morrow, previous to the funeral

 Why didn't you say who you were when I screamed?" demanded the mis- tress of the house.

 You yelled thieves, didn't you?" he asked, with a far-away look in his eyes.

Susan E. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady stanton, Isabella Brrrhrr Hooker and Lucy Stone. must be placed the active list of younger workers, such as Rev Anna shaw, Rachel Foster Avery. Lucy F. Anthony. May Wright Srwall, Alice Stone Blackwell and Harriet Taylor Upton.
 Though this is quarter century con vcntion, it ia by no means proper to in fer that the movement in America had it's inception twrnty-tivr years ago. IL was Mrs stanton, still a member, who, in ISIS. almost half a century ago, as sisted by lulrrtia Mott, called the first convention at Srnrra Falls. The de mand for equal suffrage was as broad then as it is now. In its purpose the movement has never grown. In its elaboration and application it has as sumrd splcAdid proportions.
 The declaration of sentiments cnunci. atcl at that first convention rCcitrd among other grievances those growing out of the legal disabilities of women, the injustice of taxation without repre- scntation, lack of higher educational facilities and finally the resolution; That it is the duty of the women of this country to secure to themselves the sacred right to the elective fran 2hisc."
 Two years later Susan F. Anthony joined the movement and the Quaker girl of those early days put heart, soul and mind into the movement, and much of the work achieved must be credited to her.
 Forty years ago women were given no representation in conventions whrr, political or industrial topics were dis cussrd. To-day nearly all the states nave some degree of suffrage. New York ard Minnesota have given women the power to vote for county suprrin, tcndrnt of schools. Illinois gives them !; vote on all school elections, inrlud ing a vote for trustees of the state uni vvrsity; Kansas allows them to vote at all city elections, and Wyoming has given them full recognition, plar ing them on d level with the mal, voter. Two of the four territories, Ari 2oua and Oklahoma, have grantr, women suffrage iii school matters.
 Delaware gives them school and munir ipal suffrage. Mississippi gives then
