the statement Of this writer that 'the

THE FIrrY-sEvENrH CONGRESS.


The HOuse OF Representatives Republ1-
can by q Small Majority.
Washington, D. G. (SpeciaD.-The
next House of Representatives will be
Republican by a small majority. The
Republicans have enough Congressman
to outvote the Democrats and all 9TH
ers Id the House. The Senate also re-
mains Republican. From the present
outlook the makeup of the upper house
will be: Republicans, So; Democrats,
81; all others, 4. Thus the Republi-
cans VIII continue to hold their effec-
tive working majority against the
Democrats and the Independents in
ethe Senate. The Republicans have a
majority Of fourteen yer all oppo-
sition.
The Honse of Representatives has
Nbeen carried by a veritable Republican
Landslide. The Republican gains have
not been confined to any one section Of
the country. The East, the West, and
even the South have contributed to
the increased Republican majority.
In the next House the Republicans
will have, according to present re
turns, 202 members, and this will give
them q majority of AZ. Their major
ity in the present House is Is.
In the House the most important
gains have been in the East-New
York. Pennsylvania and Maryland be-
ing the chief contributors. The West
Is so strongly Republican in the pres
ent House that no material gains could
be expected in that direction.

Rln's Musical Doves.


ne of the first things that surprise
a foreigner on arriving at Pekin is the
strange sound that seems to come
Town from the clouds, but which really
m from the celebrated musical
doves of that city. Overhead on all
sides are great focks of these birds,
and ever as they sweep to and fro the
weird music is heard. Compared with
the plaintiye coo of ordinary pigeons
it sounds mysterious, and yet it is
easily explained. To the tail Of each
bird is fastened an instrument known
as Chaotic" "chao" signifying pipes,
ind "the" mechanical. The instrument
is composed of several small reeds,
and is SO light that the birds fight is
40 whit impeded thereby.
1t is fastened to the tail between the
two middle feathers and is kept in
place by a small stick, which passes
through the instrument. During the
birds rapid flight the air passes Inn
~petuously through the reeds, causing
continuous shrill sounds. 1t is said
that these instruments were invented
by a mandarin, and that their object
is to protect the doves, which are high
~ priced everywhere in China, from
birds of prey. If this be true, the OBJ
ject has certainly been attained, since
only a bird of supernatural courage
and ferocity would venture to attack
A dove capable of making such I'M
canny sounds as these. Even human
beings are startled when they hear
them for the first time, but they soon
become used TO them.

could not get it out without danger of

and see if he won't pull his leg out
himself" suggested Raymond's bright
little sister. The plan worked well.
Every time any one tickled Raymond's
foot the boy would draw up his toes
and wriggle his leg and draw it up a
little out of the pipe. Finally he gave
a last wriggle and drew his leg OUT

NEW JERSEY.

Trenton, N. J.-Returns from every
part Of New Jersey indicate the heavi-

quiet election. Up to midnight the
Republicans claimed from $4,000 to
10000 majority for Mckinley and
Roosevelt and the Democrats conceded
their election by $4,000 to 10000. Six
of the eight Congressman chosen are
Republicans, which leaves the dele
cation the same as it is at present.
The reelection of General William
J. Sewall to the United States Senate

Assembly will remain just as it was a
year ago, but the Democrats lost four
Senators. The Republicans will have
