Fate and future of the old Congress
sional cemetery, the most unique bury
Ing ground in the world, hang on a
bill introduced in the house by Repre-
sentative Allen Of Maine, granting to
the vestry Of Washington parish the
remarkable privilege Of selling burial
sites lin certain streets Of Washing
ton city" And Mr.. Aliens bill means
just what it says, for the old burying
ground is wen within the limits of
Washington, and II the original inten-
tion Of congress to erect memorial
stone to every deceased member OF the
senate and house had been adhered to
during the past century, the graveyard
would probably by this time embrace
"a pretty big section of valuable real
estate in the District of Columbia.
Mr.. Allen and many of his col
leagues would like to see the old Gem
etery cared for and rejuvenated, and
as congress will not appropriate the
necessary money, he thinks it would
be good plan to sell burial sites to
those who want their remains to lie in
distinguished company, and apply the
money thus acquired to much needed
repairs.

RuryIna Place wIthout Bodies.

The Congressional cemetery is sit
uated in the southeastern section of
Washington, almost in the shadow Of
the United States capitol, and large
portion of it is burying place with
out bodies, a city of the dead without
inhabitants, under whose streets of
tombs and memorial stones only mem
cries are inferred. On the shafts OF
marble and sandstone and granite are
craven the names of some of the ma
tion's most illustrious dead, but their
ashes do not rest under the monu-
ments that bear their names.
The cemetery was founded by con-
gress at the close of the eighteenth
century, in a moment of temporary
Legislative insanity, and the long rows
of cenotaphs are in memory of those
members of the national legislature
who died in Office and whose remains
are buried elsewhere.
The Oldest stone bears the date Of
1898, and is Sacred to the Memory
of the Hon. Nathan Bryan of North
Carolina" and the most recent addi-
tioe to the. long collection of tenant
less tombs was erected as a mark of
honor and respect to the memory of
the Hon, Trueman Hoag of Ohio, who
died in 1870. 1t is extremely improb-
able that any more cenotaphs will be
added to the number already in the
cemetery. Once the burying ground
was founded, congress Immediately
seemed to lose interest in it's plan
for a memorial cemetery, and even the
brief records on the hundreds of head
stones were never accurately and COM
p'erely kept.
The inscriptions on all of the stones
are similar in form and equally re-
markable for lack of detail One is
Sacred to the Memory of John Quincy
Adams, a Representative of Massa-
chusetts" No mention is made in rhe
inscription of Representative Adams
having been president of the United
States, nor his dramatic end in the
chamber of the house of representa-
tives.
The epitaph gives the year OF his
death as 1S4S and his age as 79 years.
differing in this detail from the in
scriptions on the other stones, which
do not mention the ages Of those
whose names thev bear. In fact, only
very few of the modest epitaphs
give the date of birth. and on one or
two of them the date of death is not
even filed in. Two neighboring stones
honor the memory of Henry Clay and
John G. Calhoun. the greatest legis-
lstors of their day and gene -atioh.

sLoWEsT OF ALL ANIMALS.

10 the Loris.
Scientists say that the slowest-mov-
ing mammal in existence is the slow
raced loris, an animal more or less
closely allied to the monkeys. Its
technical name Is 'nycticibus tardi-
gradus," the last part of which might
be translated 'lazy-footed." One Of
them, when timed. took exactly thirty
two minutes and three seconds in NOV
Ing across space of four feet toward
a roach that 1T was endeavoring to
capture. The animal belonged to an
Asiatic genus that extends from Java
and Sumatra through Borneo and
quite possibly some Of the Philippine
Islands, through parts of Hindustan.
When its progress was timed, 1t ad-
vanced within ten or twelve inches
OF its quarry, rested upon its hands,
drew its hind feet gradually forward
until almost under its breast, very
slowly and cautiously raised itself up
right into q standing position, balanc-
Ing awkwardly with uplifted arms, and
then threw itself bodily-not upon the
insect, which was of like an arrow
from a Tartar's bow, but upon the
spot the roach had occupied half a
second before"

ss-H CAPTAIN M1YAr


That's a scurvy trick for an old
shipmate," observed the seaman.
Schriften made no reply. but catching
up the other letters which Phillip had
laid down on the capstan, he hurled
them after the first.
The strange seaman shed tears, and
walked again to the side. 1T is very
hard-very unklnd," observed he, as
he descended; ''the time may come
when you may wish that your family
should know your situation" So say
Ing he disappeared. In a few seconds
was heard the sound Of the oars re-
treating from the ship.
Holy st, Antonio!" exclaimed the
captain. Il am lost In wonder and
fright Steward. bring me up the ar
rack"
The steward ran down for the bot
tie; beil.g as much alarmed as his cap
tain, he helped himself before he
brought 1t up to his commander.
Now" said the captain, after keeping
his mouth for two minutes to the bot
tie, and draining 1t to the bottom.

Yes, yes, it's all right. depend up
on It," cried the sailors.
Fools" replied Philip; "do you be-
lieye that wretch? Did you not hear
the man who came on board recognize
him and call him shipmate? He is the
party whose presence on board will
prove so unfortunate"
Yes, yes" cried the sailors; "it's
all right; the man did call him ship
mate"
II tell .-ou It's all wrong" cried
schriften; that is the man; let him
give up the charm"
Yes. yes; let him give up the
charm" cried the sailors. and they
rushed upon Philip.
Philip started back to where the cap
tain stood "Madmen, know We what
you are about? 1t is the holy cross
that l wear round my neck Throw it

are lost forever" and Philip took the
relic from his bosom and showed it to
the captain.

tain. who was now more settled in his
nerves; that won't do-the saints pro-
teot us"
The seamen. however. became clam
orous: one portion were for throwing
Schriften overheard, the other for
throwing Philip; at last the point was
decided by the captain. who directed
the small skin hanging astern to be
lowered down, and ordered both Philip
gri Schriften to get into It. The sea-
men approved OF the arrangement, as
1t satisfied both parties. Philip made
no objection; Schriften screamed and
fought, but he was tossed into the
boat. There he remained trembling in
the stern-sheets, while Philip, who had
seized the sculls. pulled away from the
vessel in the direction of the Phantom
Ship.

In a few minutes the vessel which
Philip and Schriften had left was no
longer to be discerned through the
thick haze; the Phantom Ship was still
In sight, but at a much greater dis
tance from them than she was before.
Philip pulled hard toward her, but, al
though hoye-to. she appeared to in
crease her distance from the boat. For
a short time he paused on his oars to
regain his breath. when Schriften rose
up and took his seat in the stern-sheets
OF the boat. You may pull and pull,
