Washington, April 12-The Dupont
election case will be revived tomorrow
when Senator Chandler will speak in
support of the committee report favor
able to seating Dupont. He probably
will be followed by Senator Gray in
opposition to the report. This matter
will probably consume the greater part
of the day. There will then be an effort
to go on with the Indian bill until it
shall be disposed of, but there are sew
eral special orders on the calendar for
the week which may interfere more or
less with this programme. There is a
unanimous agreement to take up Pef-
fer's resolution for the investigation of
the bond issue for the past two years
on Tuesday. If not set aside, II prob
ably will give rise to a spirited finan-
cial debate. The bill to reduce cases in
which the death penalty may be i'm
posed in United States courts is the
special order for Wednesday.
Senators Lodge and Nelson have
given notices for speeches on Thursday
on the immigration bill. reported by
Lodge from the committee on immigra-
tion. No one has any definite idea of
the time which will be required 10 con-
clude the consideration of the Indian
appropriation bill. The sectarian school
question is still undisposed of, and the
debate on this may require another
day. Either Senator Platt or Senator
Jones wall propose the amendment
agreed upon by the committee on In
dian affairs looking to a change of the
lands system and the breaking up of
the tribal relations OF the Indians in
Indian Territory. II there is no dis
agreement of the confreres OF the two
houses on the legislative. executive
and judiciary appropriation bill IL
probably will be reported Monday or
the portions of the bill relating to the
salaries of United States marshal and
district attorneys and of senate en-
ployes, and the consideration OF the re-
port, If made. will consume some time.
With these questions out of the way
the naval appropriation bill will be
taken up.

tensely exciting, Wells of the Bay City,
Foster of the Olympic. Zeigler of the

200 yards of the finish. Foster then start
ed to sprint and collided with Squires.
Both men fell and Wells beat Zeigler out
by two feet in the final sprint. About TO-
600 wheelmen and women witnessed the
finish.

hours, 66 minutes, 12h seconds. This is
the fastest time ever made over the

Washington, April 12.-The Turkish le-
cation has received from the sublime
porte, under yesterdays date, the follow
ing cablegram: 1T has been falsely sta
ted that the missionaries would be ex-
PEELED. The imperial government has not
taken and does not intend to take any
general measure of expulsion of mission
aries and Catholic priests. Those among
them who attend peacefully to their bus
iness are not and will not be disturbed.
But surely II cannot be the same for
those who, by their attitude, try to dis
turb the order and tranquility of the
country and place themselves in open
hostility to the laws and regulations in
force in the empire. The imperial govern
ment, watchful of the maintenance of
public security, has the duty to send
them away from its territory. and in so
doing IL avails itself of a right which, in
all justice. nobody could contest"

To those who know the true inward
ness of things, the sight of n house
maid brushing n dusty carpet is sur-
gestive OF many evils. The death of
Pasteur has reminded the world of
what Is constantly present in the
thoughts of medical men - namely.
that while microbe organisms are the
great producers of disease, dust Is tho
great carrier of microbe- organisms.
Now that we know these things, now
that we understand that in the quiet
hours of night the germ laden dust
settles down upon the floor, it is dis.
tressing to find how little our knowi.
edge is PIT to practical use, and to SEQ
old customs still unchanged, old hab-
its which we know to be destructive
carried on, and TO find the housemaid
on her knees, with her brush and
dust-pan, stirring up dust o the detri.
ment of every one, and breathing
germ-laden PARTICLES to her own de.
struction.
1t needs but n small amount of com.
mon sense to see that if carpets must
continue-a thing greatly to be depre.
cnted-they should be rubbed with a
damp cloth rather than brushed, and
that II, IN Difference TO prejudice, they
must lie brushed, this should be done
by covered american sweeper, with
plenty of damp tea leaves. OF all ways
OF removing dirt from CARPET, the
worst is by the use of the ordinary
short brush, which involves the house.
maid knceling down in the midst of
the dust which she so neeilessly ere.
a:es, and drawing it into her lungs
with every. breath. For ordinary
household use, something like limo.
leup, something which can be washed
with wet cloth every morning, would
seem to be the best covering for the
floors; bat If carpets must be, and if
1T is impossible to teach the present
generation the evils of seeking present
comfort at the expense of future risks,
at least let us remember that carpets
may be WASHED even where they lie
that, till the day of washing comes,
closed sweeper is far better than a

brush Is one with Il short handle.
