barouche, and a four-in-hand bore him to
the Executive Mansion, where, at last, he
found shelter from the spiteful weather
gods.
But the end is not yet. There's ball
in judiciary Square. The temporary build

cold, and the multitude colder; $50 was the

to leave before midnight.

with graceful suavity, gave the name to
the President, he in turn passed it to Mrs.
Grant, and she to the next lady receiving,
and so on down the line. There was no
awkward suspense in finding out whom

MONDAY, FEB. 4.

The Senate spent the early part of the
session, after the Marshall Day exercises,
in discussing the Sampson-Schley contro-
versy, the subject coming up on the otfer-
ing of resolution by Senator Chandler,
which the Senate passed, calling upon the
Secretary of the Navy for q list of the
members of Admiral SIMPSONS fleet
whose names were sent to the Senate for
promotion during the F'ifty-fifth Congress.
MIR. Chandler said the occasion for his
preservation of this resolution was found
ia a published letter, written by Secretary
Long to Senator Morgan, in which he had
charged that the delay in recognizing the
services of these men was due to the non
action of Congress rather than of the Ex-
ecutive Departments. He called attention
to the fact that while the list of officers for
promotion had been sent to the Senate dur
ing the last Congress, the President, upon
failure TO act in that Congress, had not re-
newed the recommendation for the present
Congress. He explained that the failure
of the Senate to act had been due to the
SampsOn-Schley controversy.
The Tooth anniversary Of the induction
into the office of Chief-Just Of John
Marshall was observed on Monday morn
ing by commemorative exercises, held in
the Hall of the House, participated in by
the most prominent Government officials,
including the President. Representative
DalZell called the assemblage to order.
Chief Justice Fuller occupied the rostrum
and made one address, and Gen. Wayne
Mcyeagh another.

Many persons think that gutta-per-

resemble each other in some respects.
they are distinctly different in others.
writer who was formerly forester
in the Dutch East Indies has recently
called attention to these differences.
So far as the qualities of the products
are concerned the most noticeable
difference is that rubber is elastic.
while gutta-percha Is not Gutta-
percha is obtained from one plant on
ly; rubber from upward of 60 differ
ent plants. The gutta-percha tree is
cultivated with great difficulty, and
the natives of the countries where 1t
grows cut it down to get its sap.
Three-fourths of this product comes
from Sumatra and Borneo. The total
annual production is only about one
twentieth that of rubber, which is es-
timated at about 100000 pounds.
