gave an Office boy half dozen letters
to mail on his way home. The little
idiot lived in Brooklyn, and waited
until he got across the Bridge before
he mailed them. They were all adj

see what happened.

several weeks ago OF the danger OF

SENATORS FROM NEW STATES.

Vacancies Can Only BE Filled ON the
Date of the Regular Election.
Some question has arisen as to whether
the Senators to be chosen to fill vacancies
In the States Of Montana. Washington,
and Wyoming can be elected upon the
first day the legislatures meet or whether
the elections will have to be postponed un-
til the prescribed time when Senators are
elected to succeed sitting members whose
terms are about to expire. Senator Dubois,
of Idaho, has been looking up the matter
and has found that Senators elected to I'LL
vacancies must be elected in precisely the
same manner as those to fill terms to ex-
pire in the near future. This will prevent
the election of Senators to fill the vacancies
until the time when the regular Senatorial
elections would occur. Another matter
which he ascertained in looking up the
case was that when these Senators are
elected they will not draw salaries until
they qualify, which is not the case in the
election of Senators elected for full terms.
In the latter case. whether they qualify
on the 4th of March or not their pay be-
gins. Idaho was admitted on July 3. The
Senators elected began drawing pay from
that date. Since then a provision has
been inserted in an appropriation bill pre-
scribing when Senators elected to fill the
vacancies shall begin to draw salaries.

The bill creating national military
park out of the battlefield of Shiloh has
passed both houses and only awaits the
President's signature to become law.
The bill rs II passed the Senate appro-
priated $4,000, and provided for a park
OF 1900 acres. 1t authorizes the Secre-
tary of War to acquire possession of the
Land included in the proposed limits either
by condemnation of otherwise, but pro-
yides that the present occupants may, un-
der an arrangement with the Secretary,
remain upon their premises. in which case
they are to protect all landmarks either
now existing or to be hereafter erected.
The park is to be In charge of three COM
nissioners, one of whom shall have
served in the army of the Tennessee un-
der General Grant, another in the army
Of Ohio under General Buell., and the
third In the army of the Mississippi under
General A. s. Johnson. The general
purpose of the bill is set forth in the first
SECTION, and is declared to be the preser-
sation on the ground where they fought
of the history of one of the most memora-
BILE battles of the armies of the Southwest,
as has been done for the armies of the
Fast mt Gettysburg and for those of the
Central West at Chickamauga.

Capt. Schmittberger Makes q Clean
Breast to Lexow's Committee.
Macmillan G. Schmittberger, captain
OF police and now in command of the ten
derloin district in New York, made con-
fession before the Lexow Committee Fri
day to the effect that the entire police sys-
TEN of New York City, with the exception
of Supt. Byrnes and few others. was
rotten to the core; that blackmail and
bribery, extortion and corruption were
common crimes in the department, and
that mercenary methods alone actuated
his fellow officers. His charges impli-
Gated Inspectors Williams and McAvoy,
ex-lnspector Steers, Police Commission
ers James b. Martin and John G. Shee-
han, Capts. Price, Gastlin, and Martens,
eX-Capt. John Gunner, and Wardman
Dunlap, Robert Vail and james Cannon.
Capt. Schmittberger is under indictment
for bribery. He had previously refused
to testify before the Senate Committee.
Friday, however, he was rearrested and
his bail increased. Then he took advan
tage of an offer of immunity from pun
ishment held out to him by Counsel Golf
and made clean breast of it.

Friday Nights Fatality May Put an
End 10 Pugilism In America.
The remains Of Andy Bowen, the dead
pugilist, were inferred Monday, and with
his body was buried prize fighting In
New Orleans. The fatal termination Of
Friday nights contest has had the effect
Of arousing fierce sentiment against any
more ring battles. The newspapers edi-
torially demanded the abolition Of the
contests. Mayor Fitzpatrick by his
prompt revocation of the permit for
Saturday nights fight between Ryan and
Dempsey showed that he took serious
view of the situation. The Attorney Gen
eral has discovered that the so-called lin
ited-round contests are prize fights and
nothing more, and he has written letter
to the Auditorium Club that he will en-
join any club which attempts to give an
other exhibition. 1t Is said that the Gov
ernor Is greatly scandalized also, and 1t Is
therefore certain that there will be no
more glove contests of any kind in New
Orleans until after the Supreme Court
gives its decision, and sporting men are
inclined to think the end of pugilism In
America Ii near.

HOW TO KEEP WARM.
An Easy Method Describes by .
Doctor.

An Easy Method Describes by G
:" ! should like to call attention tc
an easy method of warming ones
self when other and more common
means are not available" writes DR..
K. B Sangree in the American.
Therapist. " 1t is a method that ]
suppose is well enough known to the
profession. but probably not often
used. allude to warming the body
by merely taking deep inspirations.
"On one very cold afternoon OF
last winter, though walking briskly
along, was uncomf ortably cold ;
feet and hands were very cold, and
my ears so chilled as frequently to
require the application of my heavily
gloved hands. In addition, the whole
surface Of the skin was unpleasantly
chilled; 'creeps' ever and anon run
ming up and down my spinal column
and radiating thence over the body
and extremities; in short, condi-
ton that every reader of this little
article has doubtless many a time
experienced. 1 then began taking
an exercise often employed before
with benefit: deep forced inspira-
tions, holding the air as long as pos.
sible before expulsion.
After few inhalations the surface
Of my body grew warmer. and gen.
eral sense Of comfort pervaded me.
Continuing, the next to feel the ef-
fects Of the effort were my previously
frigid ears. They grew agreeably
warm, and within the time required
to walk three blocks, at the previous
pace, hands and feet partook of the
general warmth, and felt as COM
Portable as il the same length Of time
had been passed by glowing fire.
The happy results obtained from
this simple method are probably ow-
ing to several causes:
The cold, OF course, chills the sur
face of the body and contracts the
superficial blood vessels, usually af-
fecting first hands, feet and ears, and
afterward the general body surface.
Contraction Of the blood vessels re-
suits both in less blood to the part
and in stagnation Of the current thus
rendering the tissues still less able to
resist the cold.
Deep forced inspirations not only
stimulated the blood current by d.
rect muscular exertion, but also by
comprising and expanding the lungs
the flow of blood is greatly FASTENED
through this organ, and on account
of the increased amount Of oxygen
inhaled, this abundant supply Of
blood is thoroughly oxygenated, It's
sue metabolism is increased and
more heat necessarily produced.
Many times unavoidable exposure,
rs in riding, driving, standing and
the like, for longer or shorter time
in the cold, has been the cause Of
severe and even fatal congestive
troubles. such as pleurisies and pneu-
monias, and a means Of quickly
stimulating the tagging peripheral
circulation which u person has al
ways with him, and which can be
employed without moving step, is
one that ought not to be neglected
or forgotten.

WANT STRICT DISCIPLINE.

Managers of Soldiers Homes Meet a,
Milwaukee to Discuss Reforms.
Representatives of the various State
soldiers homes in Iowa, North Dakota,
Nebraska, and Michigan met in confer
ence ut Milwaukee for the purpose of con-
sidering reforms in the management of
these institutions which ii is proposed to
bring before the different legislatures ut
their next session. The conference has
been promoted by the Board of Trustees
of the Wisconsin Veterans Home and its
tendency will be toward a more rigid man
agement of the institutions. especially in
the matter of suppressing INSTRUMENTATION.
1. is claimed that political orators and
others are in the habit of claiming on the
stump that there is nothing too good for
the old veterans and that they ought to
control the institutions in which they are
sheltered, and that as a result more or
less decentralization is injected into the in
situations.

that requests are now constantly rscelved
at the agricultural department for In
formation as to the best methods Of feed
ing that grain to cattle. hogs aud other
animals. In discussing the subject Sec
rotary Morton said; wheat value ~ an
animal food IL great. But the wheat must
be used carefully, and with due regard to
the habits and environments Of the ami
mails, and the forage feed accompanying
II. Growing and fattening animals are
found to thrive upon II. The profit In
feeding wheat when that cereal and corn
are at the same price Is greater than In
feeding the latter. Wheat weighs Z per
cent. heavier than corn. Wheat Is, weight
for weight, equally good for fattening ami
mails and better for growing animals. The
pork from that feeding is pronounced SUI
perior to any other. The feeding should
be begun by giving very small quantities
to the animal. Ii should be mixed with
chopped hay or with other grain.

House Free Sugar Bill Con Be Taken
Up at Any Time.
Chairman Wilson, of the Ways and
Means Committee, says no consideration
has yet been given to further tariff legis-
lation which would overcome the dis
agreements between this country and
Germany, France and Austria, as re-
suit of the differential duty on the sugars
Df those countries. After the German am
bassador had made Il vigorous protest
against the duty, Germany closed her
ports against American meat products.
Denmark followed suit. and general
commercial warfare between the United
States and sugar-producing countries has
seemed imminent. Under these circum-
stances ii was believed that Congress
would take off the differential duty, and
thus restore commercial harmony. The
subject is ready to be taken up whenever
the Senate considers il necessary to get
up an independent measure dealing with
the differential against foreign countries.
