La Valliere is still in existence and It was

Of that notable century the streets of Paris
were dark. The rich We're escorted by

by the walls. In his edct of September,
1867, the king provided that candles en-
closed in cage of glass should be hung
by cords at the height of the first story of
the house, three lanterns for every street,
one at each end and one In the middle At
the sound of bed, struck by a Waterman,
they were lighted
Paris was, however, considerably in adj
vance of other cities of the world at this
time. In London link boys stood about in
public places, calling out in lugu5rious
tones, Gentlemen, a light
The origin Of the phrase "hofding a can
die to you is somewhat doubtful, but some
authorities trace it to the fact that as the
small light stand had not yet been devised
any one who desired to read in bed had to
have a servant stand beside him to hold
the candle One cannot imagine that read

The custom of having servants carry

COURT SIGNS AN ORDER.
Certificates of Indebtedness in Wag.
gaman Case.

Certificates of Indebtedness to the extent
of $4,000 will be issued by the receivers of
Woodley, a portion Of the estate Of Thomas
E. Waggaman, bankrupt The order has
been signed by Chief Justice Clabaugh of
the Supreme Court Of the District of CO.
lumbia. with the consent of all the parties
in interest. The receivers are H. Rozier
Dulany, Edward ]. Stellwagen, John w.
Brawner and William ]. Father.
The object of the issue is to pay taxes
accrued on the land and to redeem portions
of the property which have been sold for
taxes. The receivers have arranged for
the sale Of the certificates to Mr.. Dulany,
as trustee, who will pay for them with
money received in settlement Of the policy
Of insurance on Mr.. Waggaman's life and
from the sale of real estate. The money is
now deposited in bank earning interest at
the rate of 2 per cent per annum. The
certificates of Indebtedness will bear in
tereSt at 6 per cent per annum, and will
the seemingly large rate of interest, 1t is
explained, lies in the fact that the certif1-

Is a much better investment in the interest
of the conservation of the estate 1t is
thought, than paying penalty of 1 per
cent month on the taxes due on the parts
of the property not sold for taxes, and a
penalty Of 10 per cent per annum in cases
where tax sales certificates have been is
sued against the property.
The order of Chief Justice Clabaugh was
made in the case of Dulany, trustee,
against Waggaman and about eighty others
interested in Woodley as trustees or bene-
1ciaries under trusts given by Waggaman.
Among the membranes Is the $500, 600
trust given to the Catholic University of
America as security for the funds Of the
institution entrusted to Waggaman. The
suit Is brought by Trustee Dulany to set
aside all these trusts on the ground that
the deed to Waggaman & Ridout, trustees,
from the original owners of the tract did

Attorneys Samuel Maddox and H. Pres

with the consent of other counsel, secured

ILLUSTRATED LECTURE.

The Washington Society Of Engineers
held the first meeting Of It's second year
last night at the Hubbard Memorial Hail.
Rear Admiral Charles w. Rae, U. S. N.
president Of the society, acted as chairman
during the meeting. About three hundred
Of the members were present, many of
whom are authorities in the various
branches of engineering, of which the mem
bership Of the society is largely made up
The discussion for the evening conferred
around an illustrated lecture on the sub
1ect Of steam turbines, delivered by Mr.
Ernest N. Janson of the engineering staff
Navy Department. 1t was shown that a
steam turbine had been constructed about
LOO years earlier than the ordinary engine
invented by James Watt and that It had
been reinvented by De Laval and Parsons
and perfected for commercial purposes
to such degree that it was not any more
the motor of the future, but actually the
engine OF today. Within the scope of ma
rine propulsion the turbine has become par
ticularly noteworthy. Thus within the
short time of twelve years, from being
tried and experimental on in the little dis

Mother Of Golf.

From the London Chronicle.
Scotland refuses lightly to abandon her
claim as the mother of golf. A hot dispute
has lately been raging in the professional
press regarding the origin of the game, and
there haye been Scots unpatriotic enough to
suggest that the Roman game of cambuca
was merely form of golf, and that the
Dutch .'kolf' shows that Scotland cannot
claim monopoly. But way out has been
found. The theory is advanced that, assum-
ing the game is some primitive form to be
as ancient as the habit of swearing itself,
there is yet something which differentiates
the modern form from the old, and that
that something-the putting out process
was invented by the Scots.
Scotland" says the discoverer of the new
theory, which has the credit of developing
golf till the world has come to look upon 1t
as worthy of universal adoption, has also
the credit Of giving to 1t the pristine fea-
lures which 1t has never wholly lost" The
Scotsman. turning friendly ear to the fiat
tering tale, tells in verse the story of how
the prehistoric Scot one day with his club
hit pebble across brook, rousing COM
rade to- emulation-and thus was golf in
vented.

Railroads Eating Up Forests.
From Outing.

Vast is the production of the forests
of the Pacific northwest, the annual cut
amounts in board measure to only twice
as much as the annual consumption of tim
Der for railroad ties alone in the United
States About 200 railroad ties is the aver
age yield of forest per acre and to replace
worn ont ties and lay new track for one
year means the stripping of 100000 acres
of American forest. Bridge timbers, tele-
graph poles, etc, swell this demand to

year to maintain American railroads.

EMPLOYMENT FOR INDIANS.

Charles E. Dagenett, government agent in charge Of the employment of the Indians of the southwest, made trip to Laguna dam yesterday, and while there made San arrangement for the employment of a considerable number of Indians by J. G. White
 & Co. He will provide mostly Pimas and Papagoes. There are at the pres ent time about 125 of these red men employed on the work. and they have proven very. satisfactory. Mir Dag enett investigated the conditions, and expressed himself as being well pleased with the result MT. D. D. McArthur is resident agent in charge of the Indians at this point.
 The agent has but recently come from Roosevelt. where he arranged for the employment of a large number of Indians on the TOnto dam, and pre- vious to that he placed many on the California & Arizona railroad. In fact, according to Mir. Dsgenett, most of the common labor on that road has been performed by the Indians Yuma Sun.
