THE HOUSE

Washington, February 2.-The house. to- day devoted its attention to the Indian ap- propriation bill. It got no farther, how ever than the appropriations for Indian schools, where an effent was inaugurated by Mr. Fitzgerald, of New York, to permit the secretary of the interior to contract with schools for the education of Indian children where the government lacks Ia cilities No appropriation is made for contract schools in this bill. It is claimed that present Indian school facilities are in- adequate. Bills were passed authorizing the levee board of New Orleans to change the levee line in front of the Marine hos pital at New Orleans, and granting the Natichock railroad the right to build a bridge across the Red river in Louisiana.
 The bill giving the Cuban vessels the most favored national treatment in Ameri- can waters was passed after brisk de- bate MT. Clayton, of Alabama, claiming this was a part of the piecemeal 1egisla- tion which congress was extending to Cuba.
 The reports from Generals Brooke, Wil- son and Lee, he said had shown that the CuIbans were capable of self-government, and that the time was now ripe for the American government to recognize the in- dependent sovereignty of Cuba.
 The presidents message transmitting the Philippine commissioners report was re- ceived anw after its reference to the insu- lar committee, the house resumed the dis cussion of the Indian appropriation bill
 MT. Bartlett, of Georgia, made a speech the southern race question in reply to MT. Linney. His references to lynchings brought out am earnest speech from MT. Canon, of Illinois, explaining some of the statements made as to lynchings in Illinois, but reprobating this class of lawlessness wherever it might occur. The committee rose. and at o'clock the house recessed until o'clock, the evening session to be devoted to pension legislation.

to print compilation of the articles writ ten by tine executive committee of the mpeIdalistic league of Washington, D. C., in comment upon the report Of the Phil dppine commission. MT Pett:grew said he desired to reach the people through the plan he had adopted of securing the publi- cation of the matter he offered in the form of document.
 "Newspaotrs Supporting administration"
 The great newspapers are supporting the policy of the administration, and we have been driven to this course, in order to get the facts to the people through the mails" said Mir, Pettigrew.
 MT Pettigrerw was proceeding with his re- marks when he was cut off by point of or- der. He said he did not care-to object to the ruling of the chair but it is a depart ure from the customs, practices and rulings of the senate.
 "I simply rise," interjected MT. Cockrell, of Missouri, ito make a solemn protest against the ruling of the chair. I know that he desires to do right, but his ruling is a de- parture from the regular practices of the senate"
 MT. Hoar maintained that the chairs rul- ing was correct.
 Mr. Allen resumed his speech begun yes- terday on the statement of Secretary Gage concerning his relations with the National City and Hanover banks of New York. At o'clock the financial bin was laid before the senate, but no senator was prepared to speak upon it.
 MT. Chandler gave notice that on We'd nesday next at the conclusion of the morn- ing business he would call up the Quay case, at which time MT Hurley, of Tennes- see. would address the senate upon it.
 Bills were passed as folows Recognizing the gallantry of F. H. Newcomb, command ing the revenue cutter Hudson, and his off, cers and men; also retiring Captain D. B. Hodgeson, of the revenue cutter service, for efficient and merftorious service in com mand of the cutter Hugh McCuloch at Manila, and authorizing the secretary of war to use S60000 of the appropriations for the support of the regular and volunteer army for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1900.

How to Pack Eggs for Long
Keeping.

The yolk of the egg spoils
much quicker than the white.
For this reason it is importout
that the yolk should be surround
ed with a layer Of the white. If
the egg is placed ON the side or
large end the heavy yolll will set
tie to the bottom and come in con-
tact with the shell, which admits
the air. If it is placed on the
small end it win always have Il
layer of white between il and the
shell. Eggs absorb odors easily
whereforeonly odorless materials
should be used when packing
them. - August Ladies' Home

A story OF Locomotives.

a western railway company
ordered from an eastern firm of
locomotive builders two locomo.
tives precisely alike in pattern,
size, finish, and, above all, rate of
speed. The president of the 10.
comotive building firm took a
special interest in the order and
saw to it personally that the two
engines were in every respect
as like as two peas. But when
they were put to the test upon
the western railway one locomo-
tive made two minutes better
time than the other. Try as they
would, and give orders as they
did, the company was unable to
make one of these locomotives 90
as slow as the other. The pres
ident of the building firm, when
appealed to, declared that his
part of the contract had been full
filled and that the difference be-
tween the two could not be due to
any difference in their construct
ion. Still one of the locomotives
continued TO get in ahead of the
other by two minutes. "Let me
see those engineers" said the
president as soon as he arrived
west ON a special trip to consider
the matter, but the railway peo-
pie just pooh-poohed and said
that machinery was machinery
the men that ran it had nothing
to do with it. Then the president
suggested that the two locomo-
tives exchange engineers. Lo
and behold, the locomotive that
had always been late came in two
minutes ahead, and it was the
fast one that was late, says the
New York Evening Sun.
"Now will you let me see those
engineers" said the president.
One Of them, he who made his en-
gine come in ahead, no matter
which engine it was, was lean,
wiry Yankee, all nerves and push
and energy. He knew just how
to get the greatest possible speed
out of any locomotive he touched;
he played on it as a virtuoso plays
upon his violin, and by art no less
than industry did he win his rec
ord. The other engineer was a
steady, plodding German-safe
enough, hard worked enough, but
he could never get the same
amount of speed out of any loco
motive. He had no energy of his
own to transmit to it. "There
was never a piece of machinery
yet" said the engine builder,
"that wasn't just that much less
machine in the hands of an art
