AirahIp Invented in Pittsburg.

Pittsburg, Jan. 11.-Charles D. De-
forest, Pittsburg inventor, who has
been interested in the stories about the
alleged California airship, says he has
flying machine that will fly. Yester-
day he exhibited model which few

should be built on the principle of a
birds fight, and his model looks like
a large hawk or eagle. He was careful
to arrange it so that the body of the
bird would hold sufficient gas to make
the machine buoyant enough to elevate
and sustain itself in the air. After
filling the model with gas he attached
q rope to it. AS soon as he released
the model it started skyward until the
end of the rope was reached. Deforest
has made number of public tests OF
his model and all were successful.

New York, Jan. III. - Antonio

duce exchange, arrived here on the
steamer Orizaba, from Havana. He
was a resident Of Guanabacoa, where, ac-
cording to recent reports from Havana,
atrocities were committed by the Span

Washington, Jan. 1.-THE Repub.
lican and Democratic steering COM
mittees today decided TO make the Pa
cific railroads funding bill the order Of
business in the senate after the free
homestead bill. The Republican com
mittee, with Senator Allison, its chair
man, present, was in session for an
hour, when Senators German and Cock
rell were called in as representatives Of
the Democratic committee. There was
no opposition in either committee to the
proposition to give the bill considera-
tion, and to place the time for hearing
at as early date as practicable. The
agreemet was made only conditional
upon the passage Of the bill through
the house. If it fails there, it will moi
be considered in the senate. No at.
tempt will be made to provide for the
consideration of any other bill.

Washington, Jan. S.-The speech of

army or navy. The joint resolution
requesting the British government to

Emhalmad in whisky.

Cynthiana, KY, Jan. 11.-Charles
Bramlett, aged so years, died January
4. He owned several plantations in
Harrison county, and had been pros
porous man all his life. At low esti-
mate he was worth 100000. He was
peculiar in nothing but ideas of his own
burial. He was a great reader, and
perhaps drew his notions of his own
interment from the histories of ancient
Egypt.
About fifteen years ago he hired a
stonemason to make him saroophagus
Of blue Kentucky limestone, which is
more durable than the hardest marble.
At the same time he bought barrel
of the best old Bourbon the state could
produce and ordered that at his death
the whisky should be poured upon his
body, after it was placed in the stone
coffin. The sarcophagus was then to
be Theoretically sealed and placed in a
grave near his residence.
All his directions have been followed
and he was buried today. 1t required
number of strong horses to carry the
body in its heavy receptacle.

SEVEN NUNS pGalsHeo.
Lost Their Lives in the Burning Of G
Convent.


Ottawa, Jan. S.--The convent Of the
Ursuline nuns at Roberval, on Lake st.
John, about 120 miles north Of Quebec,
was destroyed by fire, which broke out
at 8 O'Clock this morning, and seven
Sisters are known to have perished in
the flames, while about fifty inmates
had very narrow escapes. Were it not
that most Of the students Of the con-
vent had gone home for the holidays,
the loss Of life might have been
greater. The students were to have re-
turned tomorrow. Ordinarily there are
about thirty inmates in the institution,
and about fifty pupils.
The village has no water works, and
the work Of saving the contents wai
therefore made difficult, while the
flames had made such heavy headwsy
that their extinguishment was an inn
possibility. Many of the nuns and
pupils slept in a dormitory on the
fourth floor. There is fireproof tower
near this, but the rapidity with which

Several nuns were badly burned II

started is not known certainly, but thi
being the Feast of Epiphany, 1t is sup

THE LOUD POSTAL BILL.

Passed the Honse After Two Days Of
Spirited Debate.
Washington, Jan. 8.--The Loud bill
to amend the law relating TO second
class mail matter was passed by the
house today, after two days. of debate,
by vote Of 144 to 105. The opposi-
tion to the bill made strong fight
against it. The most important provi-
sion of the bill denies to serial publi-
cations admission to the mails at one
cent per pound rates. The provision
is as follows:
'Tha nothing herein contained
shall Be so construed as to admit to the
second-class rate publications purport-
ing to be issued periodically and to
subscribers, but which are merely
books or reprints of books, whether they
be issued complete or in parts; whether
they be bound or unbound; whether
they be sold by subscription or other
wise, or whether they purport to be
premiums or supplements or parts OF
regular newspapers or periodicals..
The bill also denies to newspapers
the 'sample-copy" privilege, and the
privilege enjoyed by news dealers Of
returning unsold publications at the
second-class rate.
The only other important change in
the pfeeent law provides that publish.
ers whose publications are admitted as
second-class matter shall be required,
before depositing such mail matter in
the postoffice, to separate the same into
United States mail sacks or bundles by
states, cities, towns or counties, as the
postmaster general shall direct.

concludes that there will be no opposi-

will not be introduced in the senate
until ii is accepted by the Republican
caucus, as the committee was instr uct-
ed TO report to the caucus. The Ian
guage OF the bill is substantially as fol-
lows:

after March 4, 1897, determine that
the United States should be represented
at any international conference, called
either by the United States or the gov
ernment Of some other country, with a
view Of securing internationally fix
ity Of relative value between gold and
silver, by means Of q common ratio be-
tween those metals, with free mintage
at such ratio. the United States shall
be represented at such conference by
five or more delegates, to be selected
by the president. For the compensa-
ton of said delegates, together with all
reasonable expenses connected there
with, to be approved by the secretary
Of state, including the proportion to be
paid by the United States Of the joint
expenses of such conference, the SUM
Of 500, 900, or SO much thereof as may
be necessary, is hereby appropriated.
1t is understood that the Republican
caucus to formally decide upon the bill
will be held next week.
