The Fitness of Things.

This generation (says Scribner's) seeks
it's graces in large simplicity and
perfect fitness of each thing for its func-
ton. The salutary decrease in bric-a-
brac is a case in point The usual draw
ing room grew, from a funeral and awe
some mystery opened only on state oc-
casions, to an inextricable mass Of curiOs,
heaped up without rhyme or reason on
cabinets, what-nots, tables, door-frames,
mantels-everywhere until the general
appearance of the place resembled
junkshop more than reception room for
friends. and the slightest movement was
actually dangerous. The eye found no
satisfaction, the body no comfort; and
even the bric-a-brac was at a disadvant-
age from its very superabundance. But
now. unfortunately for the curio-dealer,
but happily for the nerves of the artistic.
a soberer sense is bringing order out of
the wreck and the beauty of free space,
the charm of unincumbered roominess.
and the elegance of rich simplicity as
sert themselves increasingly in American
homes.

TO FIND A PUNCTURE.
Here is a Simple Way to Find the
BothersOme Leaks.


81 picked up a new thing for riders of
the wheel few days ago." suggested a
popular wheelman. '"Those who have
had trouble finding small punctures will
appreciate it. You know the customary
way to locate pnucture is to immerse
the wheel in tub of water Wherever
the air bubbles there will be found Il
puncture. In some cases, however, the
air pressure is not sufficient to make the
air bubbles. In cases of this kind lather
some soap and smear it over the tire. A
soap bubble will form then over every
puncture, it matters not how small it is.
Once located, nearly every rider knows
what to do, or thinks he does, which is
about the same thing for the great ma
jority send them to the shops to be re-
nairnd anyhow -

HAVE AIDED In THE RELIEF WORK
All Her Requests Granted and Suggestions
Favorably Acted UpOn-Government
Offers To supply Seed to the
People In Need Of It.

Washington, May 2O.-Secretary Oh
ney has received a letter from Miss
Clara Barton, in which, referring to
rumors that she was prohibited from
distributing relief in Asia Minor ex-
cept under direction and control of
the Turkish authorities and from lists
of persons furnished by Turkish Off
cials, she emphatically denies that any
members or officials of the Turkish
government have ever tried in any
way to direct or control her distribu-
tions. She. adds: "Sir Philip Currie
has done and is doing splendid work in
facilitating the labors and distribu-
tions of the heroic missionaries; the
AngloAmerican operations, through
consuls and missionaries, and in a gen.
eral way our own efforts. But our
greatest successes are due to the untir-
lug efforts and sound Judgment of our
legation officers, through whom we
are working, and also for the reason
that both palace and porte have con-
fidence in the singleness of our purpose
and the integrity of our persc@Gal. s,s
the Turkish government is Thoroughly
convinced that there is no political
significance attached to our visit; that
we have no sectarian interests to serve
and certainly no radical prejudices,
there have been no requests which
they have not favorably acted upon.
Our every desire has received respect
ful attention, careful consideration
and cordial concession.
Kindly Interest OF the Government.
''The latest evidence of kindly inter-
est in our work, shown at both palace
and porte, has just been brought to us
by Mr. Garigulo, first dramogan Of
our legation, and is as follows: If our
men find that the people are in need
of seed for planting, they are to apply
to the governor of the place for it. If
he cannot furnish it they arc to tele-
graph us, and upon our request the
porte will at once issue the necessary
orders for the seed. In going from
place to place, if our men find people
who are anxious to plant their fields
but are afraid to leave their homes for
that purpose, they are to inform us of
such by telegraph, and upon our re-
quest ample protection will be ordered

AFFAIRS BEFORE CONGRESS.
Bills in the HOuse-NOthing
Imnortant in the Senate.

Important in the Senate.
Washington, May 2O.-The house is
again to-day considering the several
bills reported from the committee on
immigration looking to the imposing
of additional restrictions upon foreign
ers desiring to settle in this country,
but it is not probable, from present in
dications, that any of them will be
passed. Speeches were made by
Messrs Morse, rep, Mass, in favor of
the bill imposing an educational test;
w. A. Stone, rep, Pa, in favor of the
bill requiring consular inspection at
the port of departure; and Buck, dem.,
La, in opposition to any additional
restrictions whatever. The house has
confirmed the right of w. c. Owens,
DEM, to the seat he occupies as repre-
sentative fpOm the seventh district of
Kentucky, which had been contested
by George Denny, rep. The message
of the president vetoing the bill to
pension Caroline D. Mowatt was laid
before the house and referred to the
committee on invalid pensions. In
his veto message the president said:
'1f she is to be again pensioned be-
cause her second husband does not sur
vive her, the transaction has more the
complexion of an adjustment of gov
ernmental insurance on the life of the
second husband than the allowance of
pension on just and reasonable
grounds" There is nothing of gen.
eral Importance before the senate to-
day. Only two general appropriation
bills remain to be acted upon-the
fortifcation and the deficiency bills
and one of these may be taken up late
this afternoon

At a recent meeting of the ST. Louis
academy of Sciences, specimens were
exhibited of kind of tapestry said to
have been woven by the larvae OF moths
on the ceiling of corn loft in Mexico.
The silken sheet seems to have covered
the entire ceiling. 1t was composed OF
line threads crossing and recrossing in
every direction, was nearly white in
color, and resembled a piece of soft
tanned sheepsl<in. The insects that
made it are very destructive to corn
stored in warehouses.-Yout Com
