GETTING AGGRAVATED.

William ]. Peters, explorer and topo-
graphical expert for the United States
Government, who started Monday last
on an exploration along the Arctic
coast, prepared himself for the journey
in a novel fashion. To acclimate him
self to the frigid condition of the Far
North, he adopted the funniest method
ever known. 1t included ice baths, sit
ting at open windows at his home while
the icy blasts of winter dash them
selves against his thinly clad form. sit
ting in the public parks in the coldest
days, clad in the lightest summel
raiment, riding only in open cars, and
in fact, exposing himself to the cold il
every form possible.
If he escapes pneumonia before he
gets out of the country, he feels fairly
sure of being able to withstand the
hardships of the Arctic circle.-Phila-
delphia Times.

PICTURESQUE Mr.. LITTLER.
Interesting Episode I'm His Political
Career Recalled.

4 picturesque and prominent figure
nowadays in the corridors Of the Riggs
House is that of Mr.. David 7. Littler. of
Springfield, H. His Falstaffian figure and
white locks at once attract attention.
He is one of the regulars who turn
Nd at the beginning of each session of
Congress, and is known to most states
men of both wings OF the Capitol.
An incident in Mr.. Littler's career will
he recalled by more than one member Of
the Illinois Congressional delegation. In
1887 President Cleveland appointed him
Republican member of the United States
Pacific Railway investigating Committee,
the other and majority members OF which
we're Mr.. E. Euery Anderson. of New
YORK and Ex-Governor Pattison of Penn
sylvania.
Mr.. Littler's appointment was made on
the recommendation of Senator Culiom,
whose stanch personal and political friend
he has always been. Mr. Litter came to
Washington tor a conference with Fresl-
dent Cleveland and TO get his commission
then hied himself back TO Springfield TO
resign his seat in the Legislature and
chairmanship of the appropriations com
mlttee.
In the course of his resignation speech,
which was replete with Pacific Railway
statistics. MIR. Littler enlOgiZed Cleveland.
The Democratic side of the House was in
ecstacies, and the other side in state of
CONSERVATION.
The stenographer turned over a ver-
batim report of the speech to the
friends"-prominent Republicans then in
Springfeld-who carefully expurgated the
Cleveland laudation and gave it to the
press. When it was printed sans the
'taffy for Grover" as the Republicans
named it, the Democrats were fercely
agitated. and vent a-gunntng for the
shorthand youth, who had meanwhile been
retired for space by the friends
The episode blew over, but 1t is said
that Mr. Littler did not regain for several
years the political prestige lost through
this one bit of indiscretion, which was
the result of an honest liking for Mr..
Cleveland. gained during the conference
in Washington. coupled with gratitude for
his appointment.
Mr.. LittIer does not permit the strife
of politics, his profession of the law, or
the cares attached to his mines. model
farms and land holdings to step between
him and the enioymen. of the leisure and
ease which have como to him with ripe
years and a comfortable fortune.

Republicans in Congress Not
All Pleased With the Message.

Since members of both houses have had
an opportunity to mentally digest the
Presidents message they are disposed to
pass more than perfunctory comment
upon it.
That the message has caused a division
in the ranks of the Republican members
there appears to be no doubt.
The Presidents stand on the subject
of reciprocity meets with greater oppo-
sttion than anything else in the docu-
ment. 1t is regarded as a body blow to
the high protectionists and to those who
have opposed the proposed trade treaties
with foreign countries. They do not look
with favor upon the proposition to extend
special advantages to Cuba
On the other hand, those who have been
advising modification are delighted with
the Presidents attitude. The Eastern
leaders are the ones who are most dis
pleased with the reciprocity recommenda-
tions.
But there is division upon other mat
ters.
The Eastern and the Western members
are wide apart. upon the irrigation propo-
sition. The former. whose idea of frriga-

tion does not go far beyond the sprink-
ling pot and 5he garden hose do not look
with favor upon the suggestion Of spend
ing large sum of money to water the
vast arid plains Of the West.
The strict constructioaIsts also look
awry at this proposition, but the mem
bers from beyond the Mississippi are a
unit in endorsing the project They are.
in fact, enthusiastic over the Presidents
recommendation in this respect
Many members believe that the Presi-
dent should have made specific recom-
mendation for the subsiaizlng OF ships,
and others are not entirely satisfied with
the reference to the trusts.
While there is believed to be large
majority in both houses in favor OF Chi
nese exclusion. still there are others who
will work against the recommendation
in the interests Of the corporations which
wish to import coolie labor. and upon be-
half of the missionaries who oppose ex-
clusion.
Members Go not make adverse comment
on the message openly. but the fact that
not all of the recommendations are ap-
proved By the Repubiicilss is apparent.

North Carolina Red Men.


Among my constituents are about s.
600 Indians. the origin of whose residence
in North Carolina is enveloped in much
mystery" said Hon. John d. Bellamy, Of
that State at the Normandie.
They are known as the Croatans or
Hatteras Indians. and there is almost Ger
tain evidence that they are the descend
ants Of English colonists who. under the
auspices of Sir Walter Raleigh, were left
on Roanoke Island in 1881. It was on
this island, in August of that year. that
Virginia Dare, the first white child bora
in America, saw the light OF day. To this
day no one knows the fate of those
Colonists for a succeeding expedition
hunted for them in vain. That the men
we're murdered by the sayages is toler
ably certain, and that the women were
taken as wives by their captOrs is the
only theory on which we can account for
the presence OF blue-eyed Indians, who
have burne names that tally with many of
,he lost prOteges of Raleigh.
These Indians have traditions Ofances-
tors who married white women, and
though they have the copper color and
high cheek bones of their race they
never had the nomadic habit of the red
man. In many ways they are a remark
able people and have always preserved a
separate racial existence. They are

friends and i'm piacaJle enemies. l am go
ing TO try to get a bill through this Con-
gross to provide for the education of their
boys and girls. Our State has done some
thing in this line, but the General Gov
ernment is better able to give the desired
aid" "

The Speaker Of the House.

One of the developments in the
present session of Congress is likely
to be a quiet, subtle. but more or less
important trial of strength between
the House and the Speaker Theoret-
ically, of course, the Speaker of the
House is simply the presiding officer,
without autOcratic or authoritative
powers to any great extent. Practi-
cally, in the time of Reed, it was quite
different. Nobody any more thought
of disputing the power of that levia-
than than of having an argument
with a cable car.
Speaker Henderson's authority has
been exerted in much more quiet
manner, but the reactionary move
ment has begun, and there are some
people in the House and out of it
who think that even he has more
power than he ought to have. 1t may
be that before many years the gen
eral conditions of things in the House
will so change that it viii never again
be possible for a man to WELD the
personal influence eXerted by the
Scar"
There has been a more or less un-
conscious but very real alteration in
methods of national legislation in the
last fifty years, and the power of per-
sonal presence and magnetism has
been growing steadily less and less,
while the ability of the diplomat, the
silent, persistent, able worker, has
been more and more felt. 1t is now
and then possible even at the present
day for some brilliant and magnetic
orator to overthrow in single speech
the work which has been done in COM
mittee rooms, but not often.
In the course of its evolution from
q body of takers to body of busi-
ness men, the House is likely to re-
duce the authority of its Speaker to
the vanishing point, and it is about
time for the final development to be
due. Mr.. Henderson may have
strength and tact enough to push it
little further away, but eventually
II must come.

TARIFF FOR THE PHILIPPINES.
Senator Lodge Offers Bill Confirm
ing Present Duties.

In accordance with the decision of the
Supreme Court that only Congress has
power to prescribe a tariff between the
Philippine Islands and the United States.
Senator Lodge yesterday introduced a bill
confirming the tariff duties fixed by the
Philippine Commission on merchandise
imported into these islands.
The bill also provides that merchan-
disc coming into the United States from
the Philippine Islands shall pay the rates
prescribed by the Dingley tariff act on
goods coming from foreign countries.
Another section of the bill states that
until otherwise provided by law the stat
utory laws of the United States shall not
be in force in the Philippine Islands ex-
cept as adopted by military order or by
the Philippine Commission. The bill also
provides that all duties and taxes here
tofore collected in the Philippines or to
be collected hereafter shall not be COW
cred into the Treasury of the United
States but shall be used and expended
by the government of those islands.

THE CANTEEN DISCUSSED.
General DaGSet Addresses the Anti
Saloon League Convention.

The army "eanteen" was arraigned last
night by Gen. A s. Dagget in an address
before the sixth annual national con-
vention of the Anti-saloon League, now
in progress at the First Congregational
Church.
General Dagget thought II the authori-
ties would supply comfortable quarters
for the men; that II table luxIIries
heretofore supplied by. the proceeds
from the canteen were paid for by the
Government and if the exchange was fit
ted up with gymnasium apparatus, the
men would be perfectly satisfied without
the intoxicants.
He made the assertion that if the 5000
commissioned officers were Total abstain
ers the enlisted men of the army weaid
follow their lead.

Marble Collegiate Reformed Church. OF
New York City; the Rev. E. C. Dinwid-
die. legislative superintendent of the
American Anti-Saloon League; Hon. C.
E. Littlefield. of Maine. and ]. D. Bower
sock. of Kansas. all made addresses on
the canteen. expressing the view that
there would be no argument in Congress
this session as to the restoration Of the
sale of intoxicating liquors in the post
exchanges.
The afternoon session of the convention
was very short and only a few questions
were decided.
The meeting adjourned early. so that
the delegates might attend the reception
rendered to them by ex-senator and Mrs
]. B. Henderson, at their home at the
head of Sixteenth Street. yesterday after
noon.
Mrs Henderson was assisted in receiv-
ing by Mrs. J. Ellen Foster. Miss Isabelle

Airship Inventors Exhibitions.

The conquest of the air is now becoming
an everyday phrase. ana the name Of the
inventors is legion who have come into
the arena with apparatus for soaring
above things terrestrial. The Pare des
Princes, Paris, is just now the scene of
a display OF the most remarkable con-
trivances for soaring aloft, and some at
tempts would have been made but for the
atrocious weather. Some interesting eN-
periments may be looked for, and If all the
plying men succeed the air will be full
OF erotesque, Gargantuan birds bats, fly
ing foxes and other winged creatures, all
much heavier than air.

witnessing such a conquest there Will be
