were made so that it became more desira-
BILE for concert purposes. After that time
the elder Hermann, the magician; Heller,
also a magician; Wyman and Signor Blitz

there were those of Parepa Rosa, Caroline

The Feather Buster Legislature.
Later the Washington Saengerbund oc-
cupied the third story of the building, over
the hall, and remained there for some time.
John Welcker, who afterward became
noted as restaurateur, occupied the por-
ton of the building over the store of Mr..
Boteler, and the saengerbund had door
cut through from their quarters, so that
there could be easy access to his place.
When the territorial form of government
came into existence the upper stories of
this building We're rented for the use of
the legislature. The council, or upper
house, had the upper story and the house
of delegates the main hall. 1t was here
that all the laws passed during the exist
ence of the territorial government were
framed, introduced and debated, and it was
here that the closing scenes of that legis-
lature were enacted which were so scam
dalous and dssgraceful as to give it the
rame of the feather duster legislature"
This name originated from the fact that
after the legislature had adjourned sine
die the members thought that as the gov
eminent mad been legiSlated out of exist
ence they could carry away as mementoes
such articles of furniture and appoint
ments as they could lay their hands upon
and among other things they took all the
feather busters that had been used for
cleaning the furniture.
The unenviable notoriety that had been
given to the hall by the feather buster
legislature. and besides the fact that Lin
coin Hall had been erected, which was far
ne ore desirable for concert purposes, closed
the career of the Iron Hall as a place of
amusement in 1874, and since then the up
per portion Of the building has been occu-
pied by various Photographic establish

The New Building.
The plans for the new building provide
for the entire destruction of the present
structure and the erection of substantial
building of brick, rising to the height of
four stories. The front will be the buff
color, which is so popular just now, and
which is entirely suitable to this climate
The frontage of forty-seven feet will be
entirely given up to the show windows and
the entrances to the two stores. AS the
present entrance from the street to the
upper stories will not be. retained in the
new building, the additional space thus
gained will be thrown into the width of the
two new store rooms. The upper floors will
be used by the occupants of the stores.

The regular meeting of the National Geo.
graphic Society was held last night at Co

evening was 1.-The International Boundary

The question was treated in three sections:

Rio Grande from Ell Paso to the Gulf"
Mr.. Stehman Forney. and 1.-The Fauna and
Flora of the Border" Dr. e. A. Mearns,
u. 8. A.
The first speaker outlined the boundary
Is agreed on by the treaty of 1858. He told
of how the line had been marked with
monuments. Then he launched into the
actual work done by the international
boundary commission IN re-erecting such
of the monuments as had disappeared,a and
finally determining the line Much of his
time was employed in detailing the astro-
nomical methods used in fixing on the lon
gitude of particular places. and of the
other plans followed in settling the Ques-
ton of the course Of the line. He gave a
graphic account of the scarcity of water
through the region through which the
boundary passes. The papers were listened
to with interest and were illustrated with
stereopticon views.
