HOW to Make Clothing semiireproof.

Add one ounce of alum to the last water used to rinse children's dresses, and they will be rendered uninflamma- ble or so slightly combustible that they would take fire very slowly, if at all, and will not flame. This is simple precaution which may be adopted in families of children. Bed curtains and linen in general may also be treated in the same way.

How Bottles May Ie Cleaned by Machinery.

A patent has been taken out for an apparatus for cleaning bottles. In the new machine thero is an improved ar rangement for soaking the bottles in suitable liquids. A wheel is fitted up with cylinders, each of which holds three bottles lengthwise, the total ca pacity of tho tank in which tho wheel reyolves being over 900 bottles. AS the wheel moves, rotating brushes pass into the bottles. These brushes arc run at Q speed of about 800 revolutions per min ute and the interiors of five bottles si- simultaneously washed under the water.
 The bottles are next automatically dis charged from the apparatus and passed on to that for removing the labels and washing the outside, after which they are placed in the rinsing stand. There is an automatic controlling or gripping device by which the cleaned bottles are removed and the dirty ones inserted in their place. The rinsing of the bottles is completed by the playing on them of water jets as they stand in the racks.
 The capacity of the plant is put at 3, 900 bottles per hour, and the space occupied is I2 feet square. The saving in labor and consequent cost of operation are esti- mated at 50 per cent over that of any other machine or process in the market

Especial Correspondence.I
 WASHINGTON, March 5.-"Welcome the coming, speed tho parting guest Tho maxim is as good in politics as in social affairs, and Washington is very much alive to it today. The Fifty third congress is gone, and the resident population al- ready look forward anxiously-shall say hungrilyf-to the Fifty y-fourth. It is only as an organization that the Fifty-third is gone The town is still very much alive with the members, most of them flying about like suddenly behealed hens They are shipping documents by the ton and burning old letters by the basketful Their families are packing up and paying last calls, and all are rushing the cabs be- tween hotel and station. Thoro arc some lowering looks and many sad farewells, as there has been a political sweep that is a sweep, and scores of these gentlemen who have served together for two con- gresses feel that they shall not meet here again as members. It Is with all sorts of feelings and various degrees of regret that we bid goodby to the rugged Jason Brown, the handsome General Black and his solid colleague, MT. Hunter, to the serious but good hearted Springer, the genial Clark, the dryly humorous Simpson and tho iras- cible Bland.
 Brynns Bland and Clark.
 All these and many more talk with great freedom of their immediate future, and it really cheers fellow up to note how optimistic they arc. MT. Bryan goes to practice his profession at Lincoln in the confident hope that tho political triumph | of the silyerites cannot bo long delayed, | and that he will return here with the hon. ors of a conquering hero. It was worth a | dollar to sec him the day that the papers had full accounts of the action of tho Ger man reichstag in favor of an international | bimetallic conference. He smiled all over, even to tho wrinkles in his clothes, and "it did him good clear down to his fet- locks" as the ranchers in his state say. He never held an elective office till chosen to tho Fifty second congress and makes no secret of the fact that he is proud of his success and dearly loves political lifo. Champ Clark, too, has not tho slightest | doubt that he will be here again in two years, or four at the furthest- Mir. Bland is going into the lecture field, and it is on tho boards that there is to be a long series of joint debates between him and Repre-

New England Members

Tho new men from New England havo all had experience in public life in some shape, and tho most experienced of tho lot in politics is Hon. Nehemiah ID. Sperry of New Haven, who will represent much more than a mere edistrict-namely, long line of strictly Puritan ancestry, at least two extinct political parties and n toler- ably strong A. P. A. sentiment-and is be- sides quito a character. Ho is 67 years old and was postmaster of New Haven over 20 years. He began political lifo as Whig and in 1854 became the stato leader of those then called Know Nothing, ' but later the American party, and was leader of tho delegation to the convention which nominated Fillmore, but when tho south ern men got a platform to suit them he bolted and supported Fremont. Ono of President Lincoln first appointments was to name MT. Sperry postmaster of New Haven, asd that placo ho held till rc moved by Cleveland, but came in again under Harrison. During all those years he has been active in every Republican movement, and his fight for tho Bible in the schools has made his name known to all who arc interested in that question. It Is no exaggeration to call him a walking encyclopedia of tho political history of Connecticut for the past 90 years

 hand resting lightly on the top of the lower half of the sash. Nearly her whole figure was revealed in the morn- ing light. She was blond--a type rare ill New Mexico, although her eyes wUre not foreign to the country, being cf . deep and soulful black. For . moment Lieutenant Raymer fancied he was look ing upon countrywoman, but roEAry and cross of Mexican filigTee. q silken rebozo and that indefnable grace of pose and manner peculiar to the Latin races stamped her as foreign. if not Mexican. while the golden hair and fair skin, the beautiful regularity of features and certain delicacy of the ears neS- tling ill the rimpling hair proved con- clusively that she was of the exclusive Castellanos, who boast of blood uncon- taminated by mixture with Indian or grisO.
 As tho lieutenant gazed at this young girl he was prompted to an act which we will not attempt to excuse, aItheugh among the fan and handkerchief flirting ladies of Spain and the colonies of that | land of warm impulses it is not looked upon as an unpardunables sin against the proprictirs. He raised his white gloved hand to tho rim of his hat and executed half salute. The young lady immedi- atcly disappeared from the window. During the 34 hours of his tour of duty Raymer's thoughts frequently re- vertod to the incident connected with the last guard mounting, and the refiec- ton that he had made a bad impression upon one whose beauty so attracted him was far from pleasant
 Next morning he again took his way to the plaza. this time to enact the part of old officer of the day. He again paused at the sundial and sought the parlor windows, beholding the fair vi sion of the previous morning standing as before. She exhibited, however, nc consciousness of his presence, looking beyond him at the band and assembling guard. This time the lieutenant made no demonstration that could give of fense, but simply indulged himself iI occasional glances and passed at the proper moment to the place of review.

 Hon. Vcspasian Warmer, tho new man from the Thirteenth Illinois, also has a very remarkable military record, as he was in 13 great battles and Il number of little affairs, but has held comparatively few civil offices. All the retiring Mis- sourians and tho defeated of the southwest generally are optimistic, but Illinois is blue, and Indiana is quite bowed down indeed. It is on the cards that NIT. Spring CT is to be well cared for by the president, but tho Indiana men have guarded against disappointment by not expecting any thing. If you want enthusiasm, how ever, the hottest kind of enthusiasm, and want it by the balloonful, call on the new men from Indiana, for they have it on tap. They are moro than confident that the Democratic party of that stato Is laid out cold and stiff, hopelessly split on tho financial question and not to come up again in this generation. They arc very young. Their talk reminds me of what we heard at the closo of the war and after the defeat of Greeley

The New and the OId.

Tho baby of tho delegation Is Hon. J. Frank Hanly of the Ninth district, who will Dc g years old before tho next house convenes. His friends at Williamsport tell mo that his father was too poor to buy books or educate him, and that he learned to read chiefly by means of a History of the Civil War;" which ho largely commit ted to memory, to the great astonishment of the neighbOrs. He worked on a farm and in a sawmill and went to school of winters till he became a teacher, was elect ed to the state senate and was nominated last year because thero was a deadlock among tho older candidates. It is only one of many proofs of the wonderful pos abilities of American politics.
 That state will put in pretty strong claim to lead in the soldierly representa- tion. Hon. Jacob ID. Leighty of tho Twelfth district was one of Lew Wallaco's famous zOuayeS and was in I2 important battles. It is a pleasure to add that he has since succeeded in making money. Hon. Jethro \. Hatch of the Tenth made Q fine record as a surgeon in the army. Hon. Jesso Ovcrstreet of tho Fifth was only a year old when the war began, but he has made up for 1t by being a most watchful supporter of the interests of sol diers. Hon. George w. Paris, who laid out Mir. Brookshire, was also too young for military duty, and, as to Hon. George w. Steele, he has been in congress before, and everybody knows his good military record. Nearly all the retiring members from the eastern states will go back to their profession or business, though it is hinted that MT. Tracey of Albany will go into the cabinet if there should ever be n vacancy Bon Bolt" English says that he will go into literature puro and simple f he ever wrote such stuff as Bon Bolt.''

$500. OOO, 900.
WASHINGTON, March 4 :. The brief
cable announcement from Japan that
China has accepted the terms on which
Japan is willing to conclude peace has
renewed keen interest in the situat ton.
Neither the japanese nor Chinese legar
tions has as yet any information that
the negotiations have reached this adj
vanced stage.
The cash indemnity to be paid Japan
is variously estimated at from SOC, 600, :
900 yen to 1000, 100000 yen. At the
present rate of exchange the silver
yen is worth about fifty cents and the
gold ven about one dollar. It is not
yet determined what coin will be used
in payment. In either case it will
make heavy inroads on the money
metals of the world, as the total will
be many times greater than the pro-
ceeds of the United States: bonds sales.

Something x
x for YOU.
Are You Looking for Land?

Take trip over the Great Northern to
northern Minnesota and North Dakota.
and you can satisfy your yearnings. The
Red River Valley, the Devils Lake Dis
trict and the Turtle Mountain county
invite investigation and settlement.
These localities offer free homesteads,
cheap lands and good climate to Eastern
farmers who have vainly toiled for years.;
to get ahead and pay off "that little
mortgage" It is the country, too, for
the grown-up sons to whose sturdy labor
the small Eastern farm no longer gives
adequate returns.
