House to Have a Platform.

There is a quiet plan maturing In
the house to erect a platform on that
side on which can be seated the friends
of the representatives, facing the presi-
dent when he takes office, and even
nearer to him than are the distinguished
guests on the senate platform The
scheme has not yet taken shape fully,
for the representatives do not care to
make 1t appear as a rival platform, but
ON the morning of the 4th Of March
there will be platform in front OF the
house. and to that platform will be ad-
mitted only those holding tickets from
the members Of the house.
Another maneuver in connection with
the inauguration Of Mckinley Is by the
friends of ex-Queen Liliuokalani OF Ha-
waii. who wants to see the president in
aupurated. but not entirely as private
citizen. She wants to be recognized
among the foreign representatives, but
che cannot be seated with the diplomat
70 corps. and her friends are In guam
darv as to how she can see the inaugur-
alton and at the same time receive some
recopnition for herself. They have not
succeeded in finding way for this DEL
icate affair, but they are not discour-
ged and hope to be there as represen-
tatiyes of Hawaii.

Dog That Can Test Metals.

No bank teller, crook or expert in
Iowa has a truer instinct for real,
genuine cartwheel silver dollars
than has Rock Rapids dog called
Silver Tip. Silver Tip is tan colored
and weighs about ten pounds. ALI of
his two years of life he has been the
property Of Landlord Barber, of the
Lyon Hotel, at Rock Rapids, but it is
only within the last year that his
power Of immediate insight into the
nature of metals has become known to
his owner, says the Chicago Times.
Herald.
The way Tip manifests bis power, as
his owner puts its, is as follows: If
one takes pile of coins the size of an
American dollar-say, trade dollar,
Mexican dollar, a fve-franc piece
and some counterfeit dollars-and put
one genuine dollar piece in the centre
of the pile. Tip will rummage around
among them for an instant and then
snatch the good coin and proceed to
take care Of it in approved dog fashion
to an accompaniment of growls and
bites. Or if one rolls coin along the
floor Tip can tell every time whether
it is good stuff to be chased.
Tip never makes a mistake, and
there isn't bit of doubt about his
powers. He has been tested by
Chicago business men and by commit
tees of Iowa scientists. He gets no
human help in his work. The good
coin is not marked in any peculiar
way for his benefit, nor is it scented.
Any one can use his own coin in the
experiment. Nor does Tips powers
depend on signs from his master. The
after leaves the room without de-
tracting from the dogs ability in the
east.
Mr.. Barber has refused all offers for
5he purchase OF Tip.
