dows were to be kept closed, and whose
portals were not to be passed except on
special occasions. Even when coal

comfort, the traditions Of the parlor
still survived. II Is scarcely q gener.

CIVIL SERVICE DEBATE.
Some Requirements Brought 70 the At.
tention OF the Senate.

WAsuINGToS, March e9.-Another
brief discussion of the civil service oc.
Cured during the open session of the
Senate yesterday. Mr.. Gal lingcr, Re.
publican, of New Hampshire, presented
several forms issued by the civil serv.
Ice commission to su bstantiatc his re.
cent statement that certain ap.
plicants for Office were required
to hop ON one foot for twelve
feet. He said his statement had
been challenged by several penny-a-
liner n by n member OF the civil
service commission. The senator read
the hopping provision" and several
other sections as to the weight and
height Of the typesetters, which no
characterized as absurd. Referring to
h size and weight requirement., Mr..
Gallinger said: ''Phil Sheridan could
not have served the government II the
civil service commission had got at
him" The matter was referred to the
civil service committee. A resolution
was adopted asking the President for
information as to the death Of
two American sailors at Santiago
de Cuba; also resolutions asking
the attorney general for information
of any proposition to sell the Union
Pacific railroad. Owing to the public
demand for copies of a recent decision
OF the supreme sustaining the
antitrust laws applicable to railroads,
1t was determined to Print the major
ity and minority opinions as a Senate
document. A memorial from the
Michigan Legislature was presented
by Mr.. McMillin, Republican, of Mich
gan, protesting against the executive
order ut the close Of the last admins
tration consolidating pension agencies,
and, in effect, abolishing the agency
at Detroit.

PARLoR OF THE PRESENT.

The Improvement In public taste In
this country, during the past few years.
ia shown in few ways more %strikingly
than In furnishing of the parlor. In
the olden times. when houses were
heated with difficulty by open fire
places or little wood stoves, 1t became
the custom In winter time to shut on
the portions of the house that were
not needed for living purposes for econ
omy Of fuel. The parlor was not a
necessary place for family use, as the
household generally gathered for COM
fort in the kitchen or dining room.
Therefore the parlor was the first room
to be closed on the approach OF win
ter, and the last to be opened on the
advent OF summer. Perhaps the chill
Of the atmosphere made more apparent
the REFRESHING influence Of Its formal
furnishing, and the parlor gradually
became to be entirely dis-associated
from any idea Of family functions.

tion-simpson for Hide Duty.

WASHINGTON, March ea-During a
discussion in the House to-day concern
ing a duty on hides, Mr.. Hopkins, re-
publican, of Illinois, said that there
was no demand for such a duty, and
Mr.. Walker of Massachusetts, ex-
planned that few hides were imported
except those used for sole leather, so
that a duty on hides would be Of little
benefit to farmers. IL a duty on hides
would increase their production in this
country the Republican side would be
unanimously in favor Of such a duty.
He argued hat great combinations
necessarily reduced the cost OF produc.
ton and consequently the price to the
people. Trusts were the natural out
come Of higher civilization. lie pre-
dicted that eventually all the railroads
in the country would be controlled by
q single corporation.
Mr.. Grow Of Pennsylvania was ex-
planning how the duty on tin plate has
established that industry In this coun-
try when he and MIR. Vandiver Of Mis-
souri, became involved in q personal
controversy over the question Of ''who
paid the tax arising from an increased
tin plate duty"
Mr.. Simpson of Kansas, after re-
marking on the conspicuous part
played by Mr.. Grow during the stirring
days of the war, said it vas sad to see
him nov the defender of trusts
and combines, whose purpose was
to enslave the American people"
Referring to the question of free
hides he said hat q duty on hides
would be of more Importance to the
farmer thar all the other duties in the
agricultural schedule. II would mean
an increase of 81 each on every one of
the 5,422,000 hides taken from the cat
tie slaughtered last year.
Mr.. Payne of New York insisted that
Mr.. Simpson entirely misunderstood
the question. The hides imported did
not some into competition with Ameri-
Ia hides. The former were used al
most exclusively for sole leather.

ST. PETERSBURG, March 29.-rn high
official quarters here much annoyance
is felt at the signs Of the vacil.
lating policy shown by the powers
at a moment when the greatest
firmness is necessary. The feeling
here is that the other powers are try
ing to place Russia in the undesirable
position of allowing the shedding of
Christian blood. The Otgoloski pub
fishes n very. strong article on the
subject and thinks England is going
to establish herself in Crete and as
Crete Is not what the Dardanelles is to
Russia, the latter would not go TO wal
about 1t.
In diplomatic circles the position il
looked upon as very embroiled and the
only solution that il the Greeks insist
on fighting they should be allowed to
go on and be beaten. 1t is considered
that after all the center of interest is
entirely concentrated on what Is TAX
