NO SMOKING AT WHITE HOUSE,
Sign Has Been Posted in the Recep-
ton Room Bearing the
Notice.

The average congressman who goes
busting around from department to
department is inclined to smoke where
he liSteth and knock the ashes from
his cigar where he pleases, says the
Washington correspondent Of the
Philadelphia Press. The practice is all
right for the ante-rooms of cabinet
officers, but President Roosevelt
thought it should not be carried into
the white house reception room. So
he gave orders to Arthur Simmons,
the colored doorkeeper from North
Carolina, to request gentlemen not to
smoke. Arthur Simmons had a num-
Der of strenuous interviews in carry
ing out his instructions. Southern
and western congressman were fire.
quently moved to consign Arthur to
a superheated climate for his pains.
Arthur is one of the pillars of the
church in colored circles, and he final
ly complained to Secretary Cortelyou
that it panied him to hear gentlemen
using such violent language. At his
request the 'No Smoking Allowed
sign has been posted in the reception
room, and when gentlemen come in
with lighted cigars Arthur merely
looks meaningly toward the sign.

CLOTH MADE FROM ROCK.
A Piece Eighteen Inche s Square That
1t Had Taken a Ton of Rock
to Supply.

The weaving Of stone into material
for clothing, the making of flexible
and lasting granite trousers, black
marble coats and faAcy onyx waist
coats may be possibility of the flu
ture, the weavers say. Already cur
tains are made of asbestos and cloth
manufactured from chalk. while a GER
tain spinner has an armchair covered
with soft and silky fabric of Titan
red which he wove toilsomely out Of
a rock-red shell. The weaver, says the
Detroit Free Press, thus describes the
weaving: Il threw a ton Of rock,
in Jumps as big as your head, into the
picker. The picker blades were dulled,
but the rocks were crushed and came
out good stock with a staple an inch
long like asbestos. This fluffy stuff l
threw into my carding machine, and
first it become a soft inch-thick rope,
then harder quarterback Irvine, and
at this point my mule took it and
twisted it till it was an ordinary
thread, like that you see on a spool Of
cotton. / wove it on hand loom then.
This little piece of cloth-it's IS inches
squares all [ got. 1t took a ton Of
rock to make it. | claim it is the first
cloth ever woven out of real rock in
the history of the world"

BUFFALO HAD TO CLIMB.
Am Except naL Case, According to
the Narrator, Who Was Descend
ed from AnaniaS.

A near relation to the late Baron
Munchausen on the maternal side,
lineally descended from Ananias and
Sapphire, was telling party of friends
about freeing bull buffalo in one of
the trees of California.
''That story lacks likelihood" re-
marked the man who knows every
thing, like SO many other men; ''the
buffalo belongs to the ruminant family,
has four or five stomachs and walks on
hoofs. It has no claws at all and could
no more climb a tree than a Jersey
cow"
GAS general proposition you are
right" said the story teller, with per-
fectIy unruff1ed mien, according to the
New York Times. "But this case was
quite exceptional. We were after the
buffalo with four of the most vicious
dogs that I ever knew. One was boar
hound, one a great dane, one psovie,
Or wolf hound, and the other regis
tered bulldog, with jaws like wrought
iron. Well, they brought the buffalo
to bay at the foot of big tree and
pressed him so blamed hard that he
just had to climb. That was his only
salvation.''

AN OWLS ODD FIGHT.
Sample of the Wonderful Stories That
brighter Life in a Penn
sylvania Town.

Story telling is a favorite pastime
winter nights in comfortable sitting
room of one of the taverns of Susque-
hanna, Pa, says the New York World.
Many of the yarns spun are wonders.
Here is sample:
AS Zach Chandler, Deep Hollow
wood chopper, was out on Turks Hill
one day last fall in search of game, he
saw what he supposed to be two birds
sitting upon the limb of red poplar
tree. Crouching and creeping ahead,
he hid behind a stump, when he saw
the objects above him were evidently
two white owls. The owls were fight
ing savagely for the possession of a
ground mouse which they had cap
tured in an adjoining field
The struggle was lively and noisy.
For moment the mouse could be seem
in the bill of one bird, then in the
claws of the other. There were loud
boots and shrieks, and feathers fell
from the tree into the under brush.
Fearing that the game would fly away
and escape, Chandler fired at the OBJ
ject and it came tumbling down.
Chandler rushed forward, and was
amazed to find but one owl, vet it
had two heads and four legs and feet.
There was but one body. The two
heads had been fighting for the posses
sion of the mouse.
The freak bird was badly riddled
by shot, but Chandler had sense

curiosity, and he worked faithfully to
save it, but it gave up the ghost the
next day. One head appeared to be
lifeless half an hour before the other
one died

Senator Baldwin rightly said
that the Republican party in the
Senate d dJes not feel that the House
should be asking more than double
what is spent by them, as was the
case during the regular session, but
now it is asking four times as much
as the other is asking. O. course,
as stated by Senator Cecil Brown, it
is to be presumed that the members
of the House are gentlemen and
honorable, and that they are not a
set of thieves and Scout drela, they
best knowing what they need and
how to spsnd the same. II is true
that neither can get the money with
out the consent of the other, he held
that SlS. COO was too much, but they
ought to vote for il, and that "as
Senators they had no right to ascribe
motives TO the House OF Represen-
tat;vss which we would not ascrlbe
to, ourselves as Senator'S" The end
OF it all being the adoption OF the
report aud $4,000 went with it,
which is $4,000 less than what was
asked.

means of subduing the House MEM
