PAGES IN CONGRESS.
The Careers Before Them Are Not III Al:
Cases Very Desirable.


There are lads now employed as pages
in the house and senate who have un-
doubtedly embarked on careers which
will revolve about the huge marble build
ing on Capitol hill. Some one Of them
may live to step into the shoes Of Cap
tain Bassett, for instance, the aged and
dignitied assistant doorkeeper of the SEN
ate, who began his services in the upper
chamber over GO years ago and is ap-
parently good for several years more.
Some of them may become plain, ordi-
nary, everyday doorkeepers of the house
or senate.
There is one man watching u senate
door these days who has occupied that
one position for IA years. For years be-
fore he began this work he was similar
ly employed in the house of representa-
tives. The pay of doorkeeper is not
very large, and the distinction which at
taches to the place is absolutely nil. The
work is not arduous, however, and the
man who fulfills it does not have to use
either his hands or his brains to any ex-
tent-a fact which seems to have had
weight with some of the doorkeepers.
If the parents of the lads who are now
running about the capitol at the beck
and nod of senators and representatives
were to be guided by the experience of
persons who have held these positions,
they might display less anxiety to con-
denim their offspring to an undesirable
future.-Cor. New York Times.

AN INTERESTING DISCOVERY.
An Adventurous Miner Runs Onto a Strange


Prehistoric City.
Manville w. Cresworth, an English
mining man well known throughout
southwest Mexico. arrived at Mapimi.
Mexico. recently from a long overland
journey through the Sierra Madre mcun-
tains, his starting point being Chilean,
near the Pacific coast, in the state of
Sinaloa. He claims to have visited a
section Of country never before visited
by a white man of the present genera
ton, and that he discovered large and
beautiful deserted city.
He told the cosTespo dent that the
wonderful city is situated about 50 miles
west of Lake Colorado. in the recesses of
the Sierra Ma9res. 1t occupies basin
about 10 miles long by eight miles wide.
Perpendicular cliffs surround the basin
on all sides. rising to height of hun
dreds Of feet. The only entrance to the
city is through a deep canyon. which has
a width of about so feet. Mr.. Cresworth
states that he stumbled onto the secret
entrance quite by accident. He gives a
vivid description of the deserted city
The buildings. he says, are construct
ed of redslone blocks resembling granite.
The business blocks are two and three
stories i'll height and are entirely differ
ent i'll architectural design from the
structures built by the Aztecs and Span.
iards. The streets are very narrow, but
are laid out III regular order In the city
is small park which is overgrown with
rare flowers and tropical vegetation. He
entered the business houses and decay
ing residences, but found very little of
value except some remarkable and
strange ornaments made OF stone.
He believes that the city was looted at
the time that it was deserted, whenever
that may have been. No records or writ
ings of any kind We're found nor did he
discover any skeleton that Would give
an idea as to the race Of people who al
one time inhabited the city. None Of the
natives of that section of country haG
ever heard Of the deserted city. Mr..
Cresworth is making diligent inquiry Of
them. Mr.. Cresworth's story is very
startling and remarkable, but it is be,
lieved by those to whom he has related
his experiences. He will organize an ex.
pedition to make Il thorough exploration
of the city.-St. Louis Globe Democrat

"HE WEARS RUBBeRS."
4 New Slang Phrase Which Has Caught on
In the Metropolis.

4 New Slang Phrase Which Has Caught on
In the Metropolis.
During Il recent discussion between a
newspaper man and State Senator Owens
Of Brooklyn on the merits of third per-
son the senator said: "Why. that man is
no good. He's not even decent. The
fellow wears rubbers."
The newspaper man was at loss to
understand the senator's meaning, but
not wishing to appear behind in the
slang of the day said nothing. The next
day he approached we'll known poll
tician and asked him about it.
"What does it mean when you speak
of man as wearing rubbers:" he said.
"My boy" said the politician, ''that is
the very latest slang expression. 1t SIM
ply means that a man is sneak; that,
fguratively speaking. he approaches you
with mutiied feet. If you go into any
police museum in the country, one of the
things they'll show you is the rubber
shoe that the sneak thief or the assassin
uses. 1t is an ordinary tennis shoe, with
a rubber sole and canvas upper, and
the only reason it is worn by crooks is
because it gives them an opportunity to
creep up behind their victim without
being heard"
Another new bit of slang is, "Hc
doesn't cut any ice." 1t simply means
that he or she, whichever sex is referred
to, plays no part. Both Of these expires,
sions are almost brand new, and the
first, at least, is likely to become much
in vogue with people who like to piece
out their vocabulary with slang.

Milan Poses as "a Patriot.
The frugal Servians just now are torn
by conflicting emotions. King Alexander
and his crratic, disreputable father have
managed between them to alienate what
little love had been left in Servia for the
Obrenovitsch dynasty, and if the Kara
georgevitch pretcnders We're reasonably
respectable and fairly disinterested they
could obtain the throne without much
difficulty. But Prince Arsene and Prince
Peter are, i'll their way, not much to be
preferred to ex-King Milan and his son.
They are ambitious. autocratic, extrava-
CANT tand heavily in debt. and their morals
will not bear severe scrutiny.
They are surrounded by imrecnnicus
Russian mobiles and loose people Of b3th
sexes, all of whom will have to Es lib
orally provided for in the event Vi the
Aarageorgevitch restoration out of the
national treasury. and. to crown their
disadvantages in TIE eyes OF the Serv.;.u
farmers, they claim the retrocession to
them of the enormous estates which
We're formerly the private property Of
their house, and which We're confiscated
to the state when the head of the Kara
georgevitch family was assassina.ed AID
all his relatives We're kicked out of the
country.
On the whole, therefore, Arsene ant,
Peter would be more expensive than Mi
Ian and Alexander. AS the question is
mainly one Of money, the latter will in
all probability remain in Belgrade, the
establishment of a republic being entire
ly out of the question. Meanwhile Mi
Ian poses as a patriot. He pines for Paris
and its supreme delights, which it is i'm
possible to enjoy in semibarbarous Bel
grade, but stern sense Of duty keeps
him at his sons side. Privately he is
haggling with the ministers as to the sum
which shall be paid him to clear out. He
has limited that if his price be not paid
he will have himself appointed general
issimo aud inspector of the army and set,
tie permanently i'll the country. The ap.
palling prospect thus opened is likely
materially to hasten a settlemcnt.-Bel.

stones Freshness.

The governor of the great state OF
Missouri evidently desires it to be-
come known that he is governor.
He went on record some time ago,
during very warm political cam
paign as being ready to throw feder-
al officials into the Missouri river,
and was well laughed at for his
pains. Now he has taken it upon
himself to officially question the
right of the United States to protect
its mails.
The trouble with Stone seems to
be that he does not know that the
doctrine OF states rights as against
the national union was finally set
tied a quarter of a century ago in
favor of the union. Governor Stone
may think such procedure will Civ G
him prominence before the people,
but the fact is he has placed himself
in the position Of the stupid boy at
school who wears the conlcal cap.

sarcastic, makes the governors I'M
