Congressman Cannon Lost the Floor Because He shook His

Congressmen enjoy joke as well as ton To play them on fellow members is too often too great 10 be resisted. One or the funniest things l ever saw in the house, said Gov.

BROKEN THIEGs MADE NEW.
How n Boston Girl Is Earning Lots of Money by Patching Up
 Fragile Ware.

A Boston girl has begun the work of repairing precious pottery, glassware, porcelain and statuary. Last year she patched up $3OO.OO0 worth of fragile ware, and she got nearly ten per cent. on the value of the goods redeemed. it is said to have been mere than the sal any of Mayor Quincy or Gov. Woleott.
 This girl began by inducing q large department house to allow her to re- pair. not only their own fine pottery and glassware. but 10 take orders from the customers of the house who brought their broken ware there in the hope that there was some one in the cs- tablishment who could fX it up. She was an artist, to begin with. and in ad- dition she had good deal of mechan- ;cal ingenuity. Later she got contract from an art museum in Boston to do such work of this kind as the mus; nm could supply. This includes many rare vases and other articles which are dug up in old world fields. and which reach the nuseuni Il mass of a thousand frag- nents. The little pieces are taken 70 the studio of the brc-a-brac surgeon, and there the artist-mechauic spends hours. days and weeks in asserting the fragments and putting them together.
 She uses n particularly fine kind of cement. which is made from the al- bumen of eggs, mixed with evaporated whey This cement will endure heat and moisture and is everlasting.
 One of the latest ;riumphs of this girl is seen in a built-up glass urn from the valley of the Nile. This precious relic is exhibited in a museum. It is apparently nawless. and through il the beautiful hues of the rainbow shimmer like the dancing colors of soap bub- bic in the sunlight. Ie, this urn came tO the museum in thousands of little bits. So carefully have these frag- ments been put together that scarcely trace of the mendipg can be seen, even by the kcenesi eyes. Recently a fabulous price was offered for the urn and refused New Haven Register.

Popular FaIncy Exploded.

The Scientific American states that the venerable bogey of the crystaIliza- ton of steel and iron in bridge struc- lures is consistently trottcd out. IL is probable that a large percentage of the passengers daily crossing Brooklyn bridge believe that the metal of the bridge is dcleriorating ''crystalliz- ing" -and that the wire cables, unless they are renewed, will in the course of lime give way and precipitate the whole bridge into the river Tests in the la boratory and ha.i a century's tests in the field, supplemented by the recent careful tests made by Prof. Carpenter, of Cornell, prove that this view is no longer enable. There is no reason why, with careful inspection to pre- vent oxidation by the weather, the met al of such structures as the Brookly and Forth bridges should not last as in definitely as if il lay imbedded in the ore from which it was extracted.

Etrst Aid.

The wrecking of n ship on the coast of Cornwall enables the Cornish Maga- zine to report brief but amusing emergency lecture. All the crew had been saved, but one poor fellow was brought ashore unconscious. The curate turned to the bystanders: How do you proceed in the case of one ap- parently drowned?" 'S'arch his pock- ets." was the prompt reply, from an experienced rescuer.

Gorton's Minstrels Next.

This is the season when the theater- soing public begins to long for min strel show, and manager Mason, ever alive to the wishes of his patrons. has arranged to satisfy this craving; a K.
 Gorton's fathou. New Orlean's Min strels will give one ot their excellent performances at tho opera house Tues day evening, December 18th.
 They have played here before and will b eagerly welcomed again. They now stand at the head in their respective line of minstIelsy. -.s
 Gorton's Minstrels seem to have solved tho problem pf how to amuse without being either vulgar or suggestive--clean n and replete with many new attract ious. Special attention is called to the vocal and musical numbers. The company this season bscomposed of burnt. cork pacs makers, the funniest in tha busi- ness, and they are sure to make as many hits as any base balkstar. They carry the finest minstrel band in America. Look for the concert in a program of popular and classical music. q.
 If you spend your money for amuse- nents be sure and get value. Don't miss Gorton's big minstrela.
