Can Not Expel Breckenridge = An
other Rule Compelling Men,
bers to VOte-A New SeiS-
niOrage Bill.

Washington, April 49, The feeling
among the leading members of the house
of representatives is that nc action can
be taken concerning the Breckenridge
scandal, although one of the lawyers in
the house said that the consultation gave
ample authority. The precedept cited,
however, deals exclusively with offenses
of personal nature committed on the
floor of the house as, for instance, the
case of Brooks, who was expelled for as
saulting Charles Sumner. There appears
to be lack of precedents in offenses COM
mitted outside of the halls of congress.
UNCLE SAM INTERoEDED.
For the general amnesty extended by
President Peixoto the Brazilian rebels
have to thank the United States, for it was
through the efforts of Secretary Gresham
that the expediency and propriety Of this
humane course was urged upon the Bra
lillian government.
STILL ANOTHER RULE.
In addition to the quorum counting
rule the house will soon have system
which will absolutely compel the attend
ance of members. Those members who
are in the city or can be reached will be
brought in as formerly, and all without n
leave of absence will lose their pay.
THE MEYER SILVER BILL.
Mr.. BANDS coinage committee met to-
day. Representative Meyer, of Louisiana,

coming the seigniorage and for low in-
terest bonds. He stated authoritatively
that the measure had the approval and
was in part suggested by Secretary Car
Isle and in the judgment of the secretary
would be signed by the president. The
measure was discussed by the committee,
hut M conclnsinn WAS reached.

These soles or straw sandals are held on by
straw straps which run from the back to
a point toes length from the front. Here
they meet between the two largest toes Of

are used rather as a protection from slip

The rubbers of Japan are wooden stills
about three inches high, which are used
like sandals, and the common people wear
mackintoshes or rain coats made of straw,
which makes them look for all the world
like gigantic yellow birds with human
faces. They have immense hats, sometimes
shaped like butter bowls and again like
parasols, and a group of country people
would make the fortune of a Barnum If he
could bring them to the United states.

costumes have come in, and l saw hundreds
Of the ugliest of our blankets and carriage
robes used as shawls by both men and
women. They are the only colors in Japan
which swear at the rest of their surround
ings and are a blot on the picturesqueness
of the people. 1 note that most of the peo-
pie walk about with their mouths open, and
in the colder days many of them cover
their mouths with sort of a pad and
breathe behind this. They seem to care
nothing for the exposure of the chest, and
the gowns of both sexes are decidedly de-
collete.
And still clothes are practically all that
keep the Japanese warm. They don't know
what a good fire is, and the supply Of heat
which is annually required in an American
house is more than the average Japanese
family uses in lifetime. Their houses are
of thin wooden boards made in frames, so
that the walls slide in and out of one an
other, leaving draughts at every corner.
There is no plaster nor lath to add to their
warmth, and the inner walls and partitions
are made Of paper so thin that they let in
the light and take the place of windows.
There is not a chimney a fireplace in
any of these Japanese homes, and the peo-
pie rely on the warmth of their blood and a
little box of charcoal to keep them from
freezing. They hover over this warming

They look, nevertheless, healthy and hap

ECCENTRIC RIKER.
Chicago Man Who Wanted to Take

San F'ranciScO Call.

&C. L. Riker, the man who wanted to pur-
chase the entire issue of $4,000. 900 in bonds
of Secretary Carlisle, is gaining a reputa-
ton for eccentrcity among Chicago people
which rivals that of Old Hutch. said H.

the persistency with which he urges them
and his faith in their success naturally Sc

raise celery under its roof when he got it
into that State.
I'm keeping with this eccentric PROPOSE
ton is a move he once made in New York
State. where he owned a large apple or
chard. Il is said of him that he conceived
the idea that If some plan could be devised
by which he could harvest the apple crop
by mechanical or other means different
from that usually employed he could make
a fortune. His deliberations finally resulted
in his going to the city and purchasing a

The simians were transported 20 his farm

Two shows at the Park.

The Park Theater will present two strong
attractions this week, dividing the time
equally between them. Charles a. Loder
funmaker with many original ideas, will
appear the first half of the week in his
entertaining comedy, "Oh, What a Night"
The latter is musical farce and has the
merit of being out OF the beaten path of
such pieces. While its fun is bright and
of the go-as-you-please kind, it is clean
and wholesome and catchy to a marked
degree. The plot of the comedy involves
numerous funny situations and ridiculous
incidents. and the many mishaps of the
principal character, coupled with various
complications. combine to make the per-
Torrance highly amusing. There is much
music of the popular order in the piece,
and the list of people in the company shows
that it will be presented in a satisfactory
manner. The delusion dance, given by
Misses Rice and Rivers is one of the spe-
cial features of the production. Miss Nina
Gennell, an unusually clever soubrette, is
Mr.. Loder's chief support.
Following he Loder engagement Harris
Boston Novelty Company will come for
three days and will present an entirely
new specially entertainment, only one
member of the combination having ever
been here. The list, however, includes a
number of people we'll known by reputa-
ton, and it is promised that the various
features are new and novel Among those
in the company are Sharp and Flat, mu-

Under the Roses

Strew on her roses, roses,
And never a spray of yew.
In quiet she reposes;
All. would that l did, too.
Her mirth the world required;
She bathed IL in smiles of glee,
But her heart was tired tired.
And now they let her be.
Her life was turning turning.
In mazes of heat and sound;
But for peace her soul was warming
And now peace laps her round.
Her cabin'd, ample spirit,
II huttered and failed for breath:
Tonight IL doth inherit
The Vastly hall OF death.
