THE PARLIAMENTARY COMMISSION.
a Clerk in the Employ of Proper Gives
the Name of Bribe-Takers

the Name of Bribe-Takers.
PARIS, Jan. 1S.-The first witness be-
fore the parliamentary commission of in
quiry today was NJ. Stephane, clerk in
the service of Baron De Reinach's part
ner, M. Proper. He said Baron De Rel
mach left him list of persons compro-
missed in the distribution of the Panama
money. Among those named on the list
were Arne, Deves, Grevy, Roche, Dugue
De La Fouconniere, Rouvier, Flouquet,
Probst, Renaults, Barbe and Thevnet.
Several names were repeated on the list,
as the men indicated had received Pana-
ma money more than once. The whole
list contained the names of more than 100
deputies who have been benefciaries Of
the Panama fund. The sums paid 10
these men varied between 1 eco and 3OO,-
GOO francs each. NJ. Stephane said he
gave the list to M. Clemenceau, who he
thought could make the best use of it.
Considerable questioning on the part of
Chairman Brisson ELECTED many addi-
tional facts which show that NJ Stephane
had IN his possession list similar to the
one photographed for NJ. Andrieux. NJ.
Stephane was requested to wait in the
committee room while M. Clemenceau
was being summoned from the chamber.
Five minutes later Clemenceau arrived.
He denied emphatically that he ever re-
ceived any list of compromised deputies
from any body and had not even heard OF
such list from Baron De Reinach or any
body connected with him in business.
M. Stephane was then recalled and recited
his former testimony without variation,
directly contradicting everything NJ.
Clemenceau said.
Debdts says the police found 300 checks
paid by M. Arton. the Panama lobbyist
and agent OF Baron De Reinach and en-
dorsed by conspicuous men. 1t is sup
posed most of these checks were drawn in
favor OF the 104 deputies among whom N.
Andrieux said Arton was commissioned
to spend $50, 600 francs.

The Telephone Fifty Years Ago.

The first telephone that was ever used
was not electrical, nor was it n scientific
instrument in any sense of the term. A
little moro than so years ago the en-
ployees of large mandatory beguiled
their leisure hours by kitehying. Kites
large and small went up daily, and the
strife was to see who could get the lar
gest. The Irvine which held them was
the thread spun and twisted by the ladies
of the village. One day to the tail of the
largest kite was attached kitten sewed
in a canvas bag, with netting over the
mouth to give it air. When the kite was
at its greatest height-200 feet or more
the mewing could be distinctly heard
by those holding the string. To the clear
ness of the atmosphere was attributed
the hearing of the kittens voice. This is
the first account we remember of speak
ing along a line.-Sheffield Telegraph.

How to Take a Turkish Bath.

1t is not unusual to hear complaints
that the Turkish bath has induced con-
siderable depression, or even exhaustion,
lasting perhaps several days, but the
cause of this is that proper precautions
have not been taken by the bather. The
baths must be adapted to the strength of
the patient. The bather should not stay
too long in the hot chamber, and the
bracing process should be applied only a
few seconds with water not very cold.
Twenty minutes is long enough for most
persons to remain in the hot chamber,
and a safe rule is to leave at the first
symptoms of faintness or fatigue.-Ex-

Mr.. EDITOR: I

Mistiye and Adj Mr.. EDITOR: t~r-
day, Hon. on c behalf as thor
onphiy commit hid boo the theory that
Norsemen antedated Columbus 500 years
in the discovery of America. 1t took
the Hub long time to come to this con-
clusion, for she had formerly frowned
on the theory. The Massachusetts, His
torical society condemned it, and Histo-
rian Bancroft declared there was moth
ing in it. But in 1872 Ole Bull, the Nor
wegian violinist, declared his belief IN
the story of the discovery narrated In
the saga of Eric the Red and wanted a
monument erected to the Morse dlscov-
ers by the Scandinavians in the United
States. Still Boston frowned and even
refused a gift of $4,000 offered for the
purpose by Thomas Appleton.
Then Professor Rasmus B. Andersen,
Edward Everett Hale, Longfellow and
Lowell gave the movement helpful
shove, and Professor Eben Norton Hors-
ford, guiding himself entirely by the
narrative of the saga, sailed up the
Charles river and into Boston's sacred
Back Bay, and there, near Gerry's land
ing and beyond Lowell's house in Cam
bridge, came upon the remains OF flve log
houses, "some nearer, some farther from
the water" as the saga said they were
built. That settled it for Boston. Since
the earliest explorers had the good taste
to settle ON the Back Bay and were the
pre-established neighbors of such uni1n-
peachable people as the Lowells, and
since the babe Snorri, son of Thorfinn
and Gudrid and grandson of Left the
Lucky, was actually Back Bay born and
according to the saga antedated the
bluest blood of Beacon hill by more than
600 years, why Boston would have to
recognize them after all.
