The President scrutinized Them Carefully
Before signing.
WASHINGTON, June l3-The president
worked very hard the last two days en-.
deavoring to consider on its merits each
o. the many bills passed by congress In
the last two days, steadfastly refusing to
adopt the practice of some of his predeces-
sors and sign late bills under pressure
and without the scrutiny necessary to sat
isfy himself OF their propriety With Mr..
Thurber, his private secretary, he was en-
gagged in this work until very late hour
Wednesday night and started in again at
6 o'clock Thursday morning. AS "a result
most of the late bills were acted ON when
the session of congress closed.
Certainly all the measures OF general
Importance were either signed or placed
to one side after examination as un-
worthy of approval and therefore will fail
to become laws. While there IL grave
doubt entertained as To the legality Of the
old practice Of regarding the president as
lacking in authority to approve bill
within the ten days after the adjournment
OF congress in the present case the presi-
dent will abide by that practice. The list

Restaurant Built OF Paper,

An eating house made of paper has
been erected in the port of Hamburg.
It's walls are composed Of a double lay
er Of paper stretched on frames and
impregnated with a fire and water
proof solution. A thin, wooden parti-
tons affords further protection against
the inclemency of the weather. The
roofs and walls are fastened together
by means Of bolts and hinges, SO that
the entire structure may be rapidly
taken to pieces and put up again. The
dining oom itself measures thirty by
six meters, and is capable of accom-
modating $50 persons. There are
twenty-five windows and four sky
lights, and the heating is affected by a
couple of isolated stoves. A side cree
ton contains the managers offices,
kitchen, larder, and dwelling rooms.
The total cost of the construction is
said to have amounted to 1900 marks
