A WHITE HOUSE RECEPTION.
indian Names Make Work for the
Master of Ceremones

Master of Ceremonies.
Chief Joseph, the famous Nez Perce
warrior, and several members Of his
band who fought against Gen. Miles
years ago, attired in gaudy blankets,
adorned with feathers and streaked
with war paint, were the center of at
traction at a recent reception to the
army and navy at the White House.
One night, when the chiefs name was
called by Col. Bingham, the master O.
ceremonies, he grasped the hand OF
the great white father with a grip
that made Mr.. Roosevelt vince and
said, "How" in basso that made
everybody in the vicinity jump. Col.
Bingham nearly dislocated his jaw in
introducing Chief Joseph's followers.
One Of them is named Ahlokat and an
other answers to the name Of Poyapy-
ontaliki. Col. Bingham made brave
attempt at introducing the latter, but
the Indian evidently didn't recognize
his name as Col Bingham pronounced
it, for he didn make a move to grasp
the Presidents hand until the inter-
prefer poked him in the ribs.

Leather Lasts Only Is Years.

A very striking instance Of the de-
terioration of leather produced under
conditions demanding quicker tanning
by use of various chemicals, thus de.
creasing the durability Of the mate
rial, is afforded by the fact that the
British Museum expends $4,000 a
year in rebinding books in leather.
Modern leather is widely different
from the material produced by what
is now regarded as an effete process,
it's life being limited to Is years. In
the search for cheaper and quicker
processes of making leather, large
quantities of sulphuric acid are used,
and this chemical in combination with
others, causes the material to decom-
pose rapidly in the course Of few
years. STRAY Stories.

TILLMAN WANTS POWER
OF PRESIDENT DEFINED.
Froposes Revolution which May set-
tie Right to Make Appointments
without Senate's Approval.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL
Washington, Dec. 9-Senator Tillman
has drawn resolution which he proposes
to introduce. calling upon the Judiciary
Committee to report upon the limit Of the
Presidents power in making appointments
which require the consent Of the Senate.
His object is to try and settle the dis
puted right of the President to continue
in Office Federal officials whose nomina-
tons are not confirmed by the Senate.
Many of the constitutional lawyers In
Congress dispute the right Of the Presi-
dent to continue in Office such persons as
Doctor Crum. the negro Collector at the
Port of Charleston.
The Crum case has become something OF
a national issue. and it ii claimed that the
action OF the President In continuing Crum
In Office Is contrary to that clause In the
Constitution which provides that certain
appointments may be made by and with
the consent of the Senate.
Senator Tiliman holds that Doctor Crum
is unlawfuliy performing the duties OF
Collector of the Port of Charleston, owing
to the fact that the Senate has failed to
confirm his nomination. There are other
appointments on the same line now pend
ing, and 1t Is the intention of Senator
Tillman TO have the Judiciary Committee
pass upon the subject, so that the constitu-
tional limits which define the relations be-
tween the President and the Senate in re-
gard to Federal appointments may be
clearly understood.
