4 A Fungus That Exhilirates or Else
| Kills-A Fly Poison Made From it
In Russia it Ranks With Opium.
One of the most conspicuous growths
at present in birch and fir plantations
in the Highlands is the beautiful but
deadly fly agaric, Amanita muscara.
1t is known under this name because in
former time an infusion of it was used
for fly poison, and probably from this
circumstance our English word mush-
room it derived. The old French word
for fly was mousche, and the plant that
killed 1t was called mouscheron. The
name became extended in it's meaning,
and instead being confined to this
species was taken to signify mushrooms
in general. OF the many poisonous
mushrooms that grow in the woods, this
seems to be the only one which has
acquired popular recognition. It's bright
scarlet cap covered with warts or spongy
scales the huge size to which it some
times attains, it's universality of growth
and its abundance combine to bring
it conspicuously into notice. 1t is valu-
able IN color, being found scarlet, car
mine, orange. greenisb yellow. pale
brown or even white in hue, and is Of
ten mistaken for edible species in COM
mon use, an error the more likely to
occur from it's variable color. Although
it is constantly spoken of as the most
poisonous of mushrooms, it is not 50
deadly as ONE allied species, but it's
poison is most active and has caused
numerous accidents. It's action upon
most persons is that of narcotic re-
sembling opium in its more immediate
effects. single specimen has caused
death when eaten in the fresh state, and
a little of the juice Of 1t injected under

however, seems to be partially removed

Hostility to Roberts So Strong

Matter Promises to OvershadOW

thing Else
Until a Definite Settlement is
Reached. ...HendersOn'S Action
PrOblematic.

New YORK. Nov. 26.-A special to The
Herald from Washington says:
Though comparatively few of the
representatives.elect have yet arrived
in Washington, the expressions of those
who are here make it very apparent
that there will be large majority of
the members of the house opposed to
allowing Brigham H. Roberts of Utah,
to sit with them.
Interviews with those who have ar
rived lead irresistibly to the conclusion
either that Mr.. Roberts will not be al.
lowed to take his seat at all, or that he
will be expelled from it after the house
has had the report of committee and
has heard both sides of the case.
Mr.. Roberts will not be without some
] supporters on the hoor The technical
| defense which he sets up meets the az
proval of some of the members, and he
will not be without champions able and
ready to make strong fight in hi:
behalf.
The proceedings over his case bid fail
to overshadow in interest the proposed
financial legislation. the question relat
ing to the newly acquired territory o.
the United States and every other mat
ter that will come before the house a
the beginning Of the session. Jus
what the character Of these proceed
ings will be. no one at present knows.
Whether Mr. Roberts will be pre-
vented from taking his seat at all. whel
other members are sworn in, will de
pend very largely upon the action o
Mr.. Henderson, as speaker Mr.. Hen
derson has not yet intimated wha
course he will pursue. The house ha
from time TO time refused men to b
sworn in when there were confiictin
credentials. but there has never been
case in which there was refusal to at
minister the oath to man who pre-
sented a certificate of election, in du
5 form and absolutely uncontested by
5 rival applicant for the seat.

Mime. Caldwell, Now a French Mar
quise, Receives a High Distinction.
Mary Gwendolin Caldwell, now the
Marquise of Merinville, was recently
given the Laetare medal by Notre
Dame University-an honor that is
yearly conferred upon some American
lay person in recognition of distin-
guished services rendered for religion,
education or morals.
Nine. Caldwell is the chief founder of
the Catholic University of America at
Washington, and has given many other
evidences of her philanthropy. She
founded the divinity school of that uni
versity with gift of 100000, and her
sister, Miss Lima, now Baroness Zed-
witz, added $4,000 to erect chapel.
She is the third woman to receive the
Laetare medal since the custom of pre-
senting it was instituted in 1883. Com
