CrusIaite.

Tho results accomplished by the
use of "crushite, new material
for saving and polishing granite,
stone and marble, are represented as
quito remarkable. the material con-
sisting simply of minute chilled cast
metal shot varying in size from mere
powder to clover seed size. Blocks
of granite are now being sawed with
this instead of sand at the rate of
four inches in depth and hard grit
stone at nine in depth an hour with
l2 blades in the machine. It is So
perseding diamond saws and is
claimed to be capable of doing the
same amount of work at one-tenth
the cost, and is also being employed
in sand blast apparatus in place of
sand and in substitution of diamond
drills for boring and drilling. The
statement is made that in saving
and polishing one ton OF this mate
rial is equal to about 800 tons of the
sharpest sand. The tiny balls are
chilled to intense hardness without
being brittle, and when struck ON an
anvil they indent the latter. As the
action of crushite is to roll between
the blocks and the saw blade or rub
Der, doing its work by crushing. IL
retains its spherical shape and out
ting or crushing power. and as 1t
does not become partially imbedded
in the blade or rubber, as in the case
with sand, emery. etc., it is rolled
backward or forward, smoothing the
surface by crushing the projecting
parts of the block that Is being treat.

IN SENATE AND HOUSE.
Senator Morgan Introduces "A Resolution of
COngratulation to President Kruger.

Senator Morgan Introduces Resolution of
COngratulation to President Kruger.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE debate in
the senate on the senate free coinage sub
stitute for the house bond bill was opened
by Senator Jones, of Arkansas. Mr.. Jones
took a strong ground in favor of the free
and Independent coinage of silver, con
tending that was the only method by
which the distress in the country could be
allevlated and the treasury department re
lieved from its present dependence upon
the speculative holders of gold There was
no reply to Mr. Jones argument, but the
debate will be resumed when the senate
meets again on Monday. Mr.. Morgan, the
former chairman of the committee on
foreign relations, offered resolution,
which was referred without debate, con-
veying the congratulations of congress to
President Kruger and the people of the re-
public of Transvaal upon their success in
establishing free representative govern
ment republican in form, and in their op-
position to any foreign power that denies
to them the full enjoyment of their right
full liberties"
The house gave its time yesterday to the
discussion of the proposed amendments OF
the rules of the Fifty-iirst congress, which
were Professionally adopted early in the
session to govern this house. Two inter
esting discussions relieved the monotony
of the technical debate One was precip
itated by Mr. Walker, of Massachusetts
chairman of the committee on banking
and currency, who made a fight against
the proposition to drop the committee Oh
banking and currency from the list OF
committees privileged to report bills tC
the house at any time. Mr.. Walker failed
to carry his point Mr.. Hepburn, of Iowa
inspired the second discussion by M
amendment to direct the speaker to recog
nize any member who addressed him wheI
no other member was on the floor, and hC
spoke against the growing power given tC
the speaker He withdrew his proposition,
however, after a speech by Mr.. Bell, o
Colorado, who claimed that it would SO
cure recognition for Populist members.

Mr.. Chamberlain concludes: my present
chief object is to prevent "a further embit-
terment of the relations between the Brit

extreme measures against either Johan-
nesburg or the prisoners"

liu plegraphs: whatever after effects
the Transvaal incident may have on Ger

higher circles, the disposition now is to re-

emperor confirms the assurance already
given by his responsible ministers that he
had no intention of casting slur upon
England's dignity.
The Standard, in an editorial expresses
dissatisfaction at the delay in delivering
up DR. Jameson and his companions, and
says: President Kruger has, for the mo-
ment, the advantage of position, but he
will do wisely to act with moderation"

abrogation of the convention of 1881

She Kicks Physically Mentally, Morally,

times they have both. can tell as soon
as enter dining room whether the help

ably omen the swinging doors with their
feet: men open them with their hands or
arms. The consequence is the doors are
either worn out or patched with brass be-
low or above. as it happens to be men or
women. When a woman approaches a
swinging door she just gives it kick that
sends it flying open. and she walks
through like the Israelites going through

with his elbow or forearm. All through
Canada you'll see the doors worn out at

many cases they are covered with brass
