HARMONY LODGES BOOTH.
1t VIII Be a Striking Attraction at
the Masonic Fair.

The arrangements for the new Ma
sonic fair are progressing rapidly and
fayorably. AT largely attended meet
ing of the board of control held last
night at the headquarters in the Len
man building, admirable progress was
reported by all the committees, and
all the indications are that the fair to
be given under the auspices of the Ma
sonic fraternity will be one of the most
successful ever held in Washington,
A committee from Harmony Lodge
was present and submitted PROPOSE
tion for one Of the most attractive
features of the fair. They desire to
occupy a considerable portion of the
floor space of Convention Hall with a
lish village. which will be filled with
members of the lodge and their ladies'
handsomely coStumed in the dress of the
seventeenth century. Harmony Lodge
means to make this a great money win
ner, and have adopted the rather novel
plan of not only charging visitors to
get into the village. but charging them
more to let them out. Among the feat
ures of the village will be a pillory, in
which many visitor will be confined
until he comes up with a good fat con-
tribution to the fair fund through Har-
mony Lodge.
The board Of control have determined
that it will have full charge of the pad
dies at the fair.

THE GENTLEMAN EXPLAINS.
An Echo of the. Veracity lncident
in the House.

nlauatioliS Yesterday and now he ana tue
Snaa ter are on the same terms of intimacyas
heretofore, the country is safe, and Con-
gress is proceeding in its usual manner.
There was want OF fire in the members
eve Yesterday W hen the Speaker condescend-
ingly permitted him to make the eXpiana-
tion.
The member had on Thursday asserted
that an agreement had been made by MIN,
representing the Democrats, and Speaker
Reed, that there should he a yea and nay
vote on q motion to recommit. lie read
from the Congressional Record the re-
port of the colloquy which corroborated
him. Then the Texas m ember added
that he did not desire to attribute motives
other than honorable ones TO any mem
Der, but affirmed that there had been
Insstatement.
After q running fire Of questions and
answers, the Speaker volunteered the state
Inent that il members or committees make
agreements they are not binding on the
House unless the House ratifies them.
In the case in question the House had not
ratified the agreement; therefore it had
broken none. The member from Texas eN-
pressed himself as satisfied with the ruling,
which declared that he and the Speaker
had not made an agreement, aud the war
clouds rolled away, peace reigned and the
House proceeded with its ordinary work.

Last summer, when the committee to
investigate the working of the merit
system was holding its sessions, the
Cabinet officers were invited to appear
before the committee and give their
views All Of them gave such views
either in writing or orally. Since that
time, in response TO a Senate resou-
ton, these officers again gave their
views, which were practically the same
as those conveyed to the Congression-
al committee.
One of the most important sugges-
tions was that made by Secretary
Gage, in which he recommended that
deputy collectors in the internal reve-
rue and customs service and deputy
marshals be exempted from the OPP
Grafton of the civil service reform laws.
There is an expectation apparently
we'll founded that the President has
adopted the view of Secretary Gage,
and that he is soon to send to Con-
gress an order opening up this large
field of appointments. Senator Hanna
has been at the White House great
deal of late, and it is known that he
is in favor of having as many places
made for the faithful as possible. Rep
resentative Grosvenor and Senator
Hanna were at the White House again
yesterday. and it is believed that they
We're comforting with the President on
this particular matter.

tience no longer seemed a political Vir-

mestic economy. Mr.. Reed has not been
able to satisfy all of his friends, and
the whole kit has been dumped into
Mr.. Hanna's wagon. Among the irri-
tating issues are the postmasterships
and collectorships at Savannah, Ga.
and Beaufort. s. c.. and generally all
along the south Atlantic and gulf coast.
Among the new candidates for the
place of Commissioner of Patents are
A. +. Greeley, of New Hampshire, and
n. L. rockingham, of Massachusetts.
a Texas Congressman called on the
President yesterday, simply, it was
stated, to pay his respects. A similar
call was made by Senator Butler, of
North Carolina.
In the afternoon there was large
delegation at the White House from
the lumbermen's organization here, and
also a delegation of the American Ma
rine Engineers, headed by Mr.. Uitler.
The President. it is said, has decided
the collectorship contest at Philadel-
phia adversely to the Business Mems
League. He has determined to send to
the Senate the name of State Senator
Ffrr- a .lz.sz
being Major Howard. In this contest
Senator Penrese has come out on top.
The Business Mems League antago-
nized him for the Senate and put up
their own candidate. Mr.. Quay, Mr..
Penrose and the State machine united
on State Senator Thomas and succeed
ed in getting for him the prize.

The citizens of Washington will be
pleased to learn that Prof. Carpenter
will continue his experiments this
week, and give all another chance to
witness this most instructive and
amusing entertainment. The intelli-

to attend. The professor has been
greeted with crowded houses each
evening that he has been here, and
large number has been unable to Sc

with an able and well-defined discus
