WASHINGTON Letter

FROM OUR REGU LAR CORRESPONDENT.
WASHINGTON. D. c.. January Goth, 1896.
The Monroe doctrine resolution repor-
ted from the Senate Committee on For.
eign Relations, which will certainly be
adopted, ought to have at least one good
result: abroad. 1t ought to convince
all Europe that partisan politics in the
United States has nothing whatever to
do with the Monroe Doctrine; that it Is
a principle thoroughly and enthusiastic
cally endorsed by our people, regardless
of domestic political opinions, and that
it is going to be firmly maintained re-
gardless of consequences. Once let
Europeans become convinced on this
subject, and there will be no further
trouble about the general European
recognition of the Monroe Doctrine,
Notwithstanding the assertion of Lord
Salisbury that it had no status as inter-
national law. An assertion of doctrine
by the official representatives of ten
million of the worlds finest fighting
men, which is precisely what the adop-
ton of this Monroe Doctrine resolution
by Congress will be, is quite strorg
enough to stand without the support Of
international law, ana it will stand, see
if it doesn't.
The house has passed the Pension
Appropriation bill and will now proceed
to kill time until one OF the other reg
ular appropriation bills is reported,
which will probably be some time this

Reassessment Problems,

A Reassessment Bill has been intro
duced in the Maryland Legislature pro-
viding a new tax basis for the State.
Supplemental to the Reassessment
Bill proper, have also been introduced
two others, one Of which provides for
the assessment of Bonds on sliding
scale, based upon the interest rate of
the various bonds held in the State.
The second supplementary bill pro.
vides for the assessment and taxing Of
mortgages,
The two supplemental bills have been
offered separately to the end that oppo-
sition to either or both, on the part Of
the Legislature or the Governor, may
not be allowed to interfere with the
passage of a general reassessment bill.
As to the wisdom Of thus approaching
the question of assessment and taxation,
we shall be silent in this instance, as we
desire to call attention to two PROPOSE
tions made, one each, in the two supple.
mental bills referred to, both of which
propositions are wrong in principle and
will, if enacted into law. the one, foster
one Of the intrinsically pernicious sys.
tems of borrow and loan, (the Build.
ing and Loan plan,) while the other,
the Bond Scaling" proposition, works
an injury to the ordinary mortgage.
1t is proposed that Bonds shall be as.
sessed on their face or par value, in pro-
portion to the interest they bear. fair
proposition thus far, but when SIX per
cent bonds are assessed at but sixty per
cent of their face value while ordinary
mortgage loans bearing six per cent are
to be assessed at one hundred per cent,
we claim that there is error in the foun.
dalton principle. Bonds are, as rule,
and in fact, but mortgage subdivided
into sums convenient for placing and
handling and there needs be some good
reason why the five per cent farm mort.
gage shall pay exactly double the rate
imposed upon the mortgage Of corpora.
tions. The five per cent Bond is scaled
to an assessment Of fifty percent of its
par value here in Frederick county we
have money advertised for loan at FIVE
per cent on mortgage, but by the pro-
posed bill such mortgage will be assess
ed at its full face value.
A six per cent bond should be assess
ed 100 per cent, 5 per cant bond 833
per cent, al per cent bond 663 per cent,
and 3 per cent bond so per cent. Ev.
on this would put bonds on more ia
vorable basis than mortgages, for large
percentage of mortgage loans are now
made at FIVE per cent, to be assessed un-
der the provisions Of this bill. at 100
per cent. as against 833 per cent for
5per cent bond. Further, the par value
of bond at 6. or 5, or even at 4 per
cent does not usually represent actual
value, as most of them carry premium
being 10 reality that much more capital
possessed by the holder, while on the
other hand, owing to the great shrink.

Prizes on Patents.
How to get $500 and Perhaps
Make a Fortune.

We secure patents and to induce people to
keep track of their bright ideas we offer q
prize of one hundred dollars to be paid on
the first Of every month to the person who
submits to US the most meritorious invention
during the preceding month. We will also
advertise the Invention free of charge in the
National Recorder, a weekly newspaper, pub.
ished in Washington, D. G., which has an
extensive circulation throughout the United
States and is devoted to the interests of In.
ventors.
Nor so HARD AS IT SEEMS.
The idea Of being able to invent something
trikes most people as being very difficult;
this delusion the Company wishes to dispel.
1t is the simple things and small inventions
that make the greatest amount of money and
the complex ones are seldom profitable. Al.
most everybody, at some time or another,
conceiyes an idea, which, il patented, would
probably be worth to HIM fortune. Unfor.
tunately such ideas are usually dismissed
without thought. The simple Invention like
the Car window which could be easily slid up
and down without breaking the passengers
back, the sauce pan, the collar button, the
nut lock, the bottle stopper, the snow shovel
are things that almost everyone sees some
way Of improving upon, and it is these kind
of inventions that bring the greatest returns
! to the author.
The prize we offer at the end of each month
will be paid, whether the application has
been acted upon by the Patent Office or note
Every competitor must apply for patent on
his invention through us, and whether he &C.
cures the prize or not, the inventor wi Il hav

Rare Diplomacy.

The story has been told in many forms
of two persons, each of whom suspected
the other of deep laid malign plan. and
each gave timo and anxiety to tho discov-
cry OF that plan, only to find in the end
that neither had any plan except to watch
the other.
One day Prince Mctternich, the old Aus
TRAN statesman, was informed that a
stranger desired to see him The man, be-
ing adnltted was recognized by Meter
Mich rs one whom he had formerly known
at Paris But the man now appeared I'M
der borrowed name. He had a fragment
of the handwriting Of Fouche, the French
minister of police, as evidence that he
was sent by Foucho His mission, he said
was most secret and in fact, only extend
ed to informing the prince that Fouche
was DESTROYS of Offering to his considera-
tions propositions of highly important
nature. The messenger declared that he
was quite ignorant Of the purport of these
propositions and had no other authority
than to invite the prince to a secret CON
ferencethrOugh the medium of some trusty
envoy, who should be dispatched to Paris
for the purpose.
The prince replied, "You must permit
me to think of this"
Ihe agent retired ana the Austrian min
lister repaired to the emperor and recounted
what had passed.
81 think" said the prince, "that we
should send confidential agent, not to
Paris, but to some other place that may be
fixed upon, who shall have no other in
struotions but to listen to all that the
Frenchman who will meet him there shall
impart and bring us faithfully an account
of ii.
The mysterious messenger was accord
ingly dismissed, with an answer to the eff
feet that an Austrian calling himself Wer-
ner should be at certain hotel In the
town of Basic, in Switzerland on such u
day, with instructions from Prince Meter
mich. The meeting thus appointed took
place at the spot and hour fixed.
The diplomatic agents saluted each 9th
er with fitting courtesy, seated themselves
face to face, and each assumed the attitude
of listener.
May l ask you, SIR said the envoy
from Paris at length, "what is the object
of our meetingP"
"My object sir, replied the Austrian,
"is to listen to whatever you may be dis
posed to say"
solely to hear what you may have to COM
municate."
Neither of the ENJOYS had anything fur
Their to add to this interesting interchange
of information, and therefore they sepa-
rated with mutual oivility.-New York

Golden Silence.

The most dramatic of silent men was
Wallenstcin, the antagonist Of Gustavus
Adolphus, and the commander of the en-
peror's armies in the Thirty Years war.
He insisted that the deepest silence should
reign about him. His officers took care
that no loud conversation should disturb
their general. They knew that chamber
lain had been hanged for waking him
without orders, and that an officer who
would wear clanklng spurs in the com
manders presence had been secretly put
to death
In the rooms of his palace the servants
glided as if they were phantoms, and a
dozen sentinels moved about his tent
charged to secure the silence the general
demanded. Chains were stretched across
the streets in order to guard him against
the disturbance of sounds.
Wallenstein's taciturnity which made
him shun speech, and his love of silence,
which caused him to be irritated at the
slightest noise, were due to his constitu-
tional temperament. He never smiled, he
never asked advice from any one and he
could not endure to be gazed at, even when
giving an order. The soldiers, when he
crossed the camp, pretended not to see him,
knowing that curious look would bring
them ACKNOWLEDGMENT Weekly.

How Insects Breathe.

Take any moderately largo insect and
examine it closely. You will observe, even
with the naked eye, that the body is
pierced with a number of holes, usually
from IS to 90 in number. These minute
openings are the apertures through which
air is admitted to the system, and they are
generally so wonderfully perfect that no
extraneous mater of any kind can possibly
effect an entrance. Sometimes these holes
are furnishd with delicate pair of horny
clasps, which can be opened and closed at
the will of the insect. In other cases-this
class Is far more numerous - they are
densely fringed with stiff, interlacing
bristles, which form a filter that admits
nothing but air. This bristle filter is so
perfectly yet so delicately made that it has
been found absolutely impossible to force
even such a subtle fluid as spirits of wine
through it. These apertures or breathing
holes" communicate with two large tubes,
which extend along the entire body of the
insect, furnishing fresh air to the whole
system. Beside these two main tubes,
there are innumerable delicate branches,
which run in all directions through the
Insects body, continually dividing and
subdividlng until wonderful network Is
the result. This mechanism allows air to
penetrate into every fiber of the insects
anatomy, even into the nerve lines of the
gauzy wings-providing it has wings-and
into the feet and antenna. st. Louis Re
