DIR. Doremus. Large breweries and
abattoirs in New York, Chicago and
other cities in this country and in Eu
rope employ liquefied ammonia for
cooling purposes in place of ice.
For the purpose of cooling build

ance with the walls and color scheme,

PRINCESS TO MARRY.
Victoria, Daughter of King Edward,
VIII Soon he BetrOthed by
Her Parents,

The formal announcement Of the be-
truthal of Princess Victoria, daughter
of King Edward and Queen Alexandra,
will soon be made, but the name of the
favored one has not been made pubic.
Their majesties have long been anH-
ious for the marriage of the princess,
and have not been slow in encouraging
one after another of eligible European
princes who have sought her hand.
Princess Victoria, however, has
never given encouragement to any of
her royal suitors. English princesses
have always married at an early age,
and the reluctance of Victoria to enter
into wedlock has been considered un-
accountable. More than once there
has been suspicion that her royal high
ness had given her heart TO the keep.
ing of some one not of the blood royal,
but there has never been confirmation
of this suspicion. She has always been
somewhat eccentric and original, in
this respect resembling her aunt, Prin-
cess Louise, whose mother, Queen Vic
toria, had no little trouble in breaking
up her love affair with young clergy
man. Suitors for Victoria's s hand were
many before her grandmother died,
and they have increased in number
since her father ascended the throne.
II is now known that a betrothal
heretofore has been prevented by the
peculiar ideas Of the marriage relation
held by Princess Victoria. Another
reason has also been advanced. The
princess is said to be a victim of ep-
ilepsy. The betrothal is expected to re-
veal n most romantic love story.

LEGISLATORS WOES.

work in their shirt sleeves, even if the
weather be oppressively hot, and the
shirts of the latest style and approved
cleanliness.
Only one member, Mr.. Emory, of
Venango, has thus far attempted to
transgress the rule. He wore baggy
silk shirt waist affair, which looked
well, and he escaped the eye of the
speaker for some time, but Mr.. Mar
shalls attention was directed to Mr..
Emery by one of the clerks, and the
mandate of the chair was thundered
forth:
"Gentlemen sitting in this house
with their coats off will please put
them on"

happened if Insurgent Emery had led
a revolt or moved for the suspension
of the rules. lie obeyed the speaker,

away from the afternoon sessions
whenever 1t is possible. Most of them
hunt cool spots, but many go to the
baseball games and other places where
an enthusiast forgets about the
weather, rain or shine. On Thursday
when Speaker Marshall wanted few
sergeants-at-arm to close the doors
against members who were trying to
'play hockey" he could not find any
ergeants-at-arms, and on Friday, be
