BENEATH the dome and roof of the Cap
- itol building at Washington, which
covers three and a half acres of ground in the
main building, with two and two-thirds acres
more in its sweeping terraces, are four hun
bred and thirty individual rooms, besides the
legislative chambers of the Senate and House
and that of the Supreme Court. There are
miles of corridors and other floor space, more
than ninety thousand square yards of interior
walls, and so many windows and doors that
it would mean a days tour to count all of
them.
1t can, therefore, easily be imagined that
when the time comes to clean house in this
mammoth establishment it is no small under
taking The work generally begins in July.
The housekeeper of the Capitol is not
woman, but stalwart Elliott Woods
To begin with, there are two banks in the
Capitol That is, the offices of the secretary
of the Senate and the sergeant-at-arms of the
House are fitted up exactly on the plan of
bank, and the members receive their pay
there every month. Then there are the post
offices of the Senate and the House, doing as
large a business as any post-offlce of good
sized town; and there are the two restaurants,
which feed as many people throughout the
sessions as a city hotel

Washing the Buildings

COAP and water play an important part after
~ the carpets are removed Not only the
floors, but the walls and ceilings are cleansed.
Twice year the exterior walls of the building
are washed down. This IS done by one or
more of the Washington fire companies, which
come up in force, and with their reels of NAM
moth hose turn an unceasing play of water
upon the building for several days.
Whenever any of the pine or other wood
work IN the Capitol is now removed, it is re-
placed with mahogany, and all new furniture
provided for committee rooms, unless the
chairman explicitly states that he wishes it
otherwise, is of mahogany.
Every summer some part of the building
must be reprinted. A year or SO ago this
work was done the dome, and for that
hercuean task seven hundred gallons of white
lead were used. At about the same time the
House lobbies and Statuary Hall were re-
decorated An entire new roof and ceiling
were put on the hall.
It will be recalled that the exquisite mural
paintings of the Senate wing were executed
by Brumidi One of his former pupils, an
artist who assisted him in making the Senate
decorations, Is still living, and although
old man at the time yet he went on the painters
scaffolding while Statuary Hall was being
decorated and did the work the ceiling
himself 1t will probably be the browning
achievement of his life and is a work of art
which is greatly admired.
Last summer eighty-ive thousand yards of
wall space was reprinted in the building, but
notwithstanding that tact there Will still be
plenty of work to keep the painters busy there
during this vacation.
One of the most notable improvements of
recent times IS that which has been made in
the rotunda of the Capitol. For forty years.
whenever the walls OF this magnificent pan
theon have become dingy and soiled, they have
been restored with fresh coat of paint.
Woods at last determined to have the
walls scraped to see the effect of the un-
blemished stone. Forty distinct layers of
paint were removed, and when the fine reddish
brown sandstone of which the walls were con-
structed, came into view it was at once realized
that no better setting could be given the
stately chamber The stone was sadly stained
by the paint of more than a quarter of cen
fury, but it is gradually assuming its original
shades, and the effect of the granite walls is
most admirable.

Uncle Sans Drug Store

TN addition there is a well-equipped drug store,
l. supplied largely at Uncle Sans expense,
but doing a tiOurishing business; and across
the hall from Woods Office down in the terrace
is a regular hardware store, as well as plumb
ing establishment.
On the floor below there is wonderful cleo
trio plant which not only supplies the power
for the thousands of lights throughout the
building, but during the coolest days of win
ter maintains an atmosphere In the chambers
and corridors as soft and warm summer, be-
sides running the machinery for a system of
ventilation which keeps all of the building
flooded with fresh air.
There are two stationery rooms. Uncle Sam
allows each statesman one hundred and
twenty-five dollars annually for his stationery,
and if one of them does not use the full amount
of the allowance whatever remains over is
paid to him in cash
But this is not the only way in which Uncle
Sam is generous to the representatives of the
people. The chairman of every committee is
not only provided with handsome committee
room with every possible accessory, but he is
allowed the salaries of the clerks of the COM
mittee, ranging from a thousand to twenty
five hundred dollars each. If the committee
IS an important one, it is also provided with
messenger to sit at the committee-room door,
or run on errands as needed. Every committee
room is kept in immaculate order, and each
morning the small refrigerator in the closet
attached thereto is supplied with a generous
number of bottles of any spring mineral
water the chairman of the committee may
prefer.
Probably because cleanliness is next to god
illness the luxurious bath rooms with their
tiled floors and walls and marble tubs and
barber shops with every modern convenience,
were fitted up in both the Senate and House
wings. 1t is to supply these places that the
drug store orders bay rum, alcohol, witch
hazel, hair lotions by the gallon massage
creams by the dozen boxes, and cologne, per
fumed soaps, and extracts in wholesale guam
titles. The BARRIERS and bath attendants are
employed under the head of skilled labor"
and are paid salaries of nine hundred dollars
each, but they receive more than that sum in
tips from the Senators and Representatives.
During the recess of Congress they do por-
tage service in and about the Capitol.

New Buildings for Members

EVEN with its four hundred and thirty apart
IL ments, the Capitol does not begin to furnish
the necessary committee rooms for the members
of Congress. 1t was that which led Congress to
appropriate the money for the erection Of two
office buildings for the use of the members. They
are now under construction and the Office of
extending from to D-sts. on North Capitol
1t will be a handsome granite and marble
structure and will contain three hundred and
ninety rooms. The House Office is on the
opposite side of the Capitol grounds, and will
be somewhat similar to the Senate Office only
larger, as it will have four hundred and twenty
rooms.
These two buildings. and the heating and
lighting plant of the Capitol, which is now
under construction in southwest Washington.
will cost within the neighborhood of eight
million dollars That amount, taken in con-
sideration with the almost eighteen millions
which the Capitol has cost since its foundation
was laid over a century ago, will make the
buildings of our national

Broom Onslaught Begins

THE general cleanup is such an undertaking
L that the Congressman have scarce turned
their backs on the legislative chambers before
all the desks are taken out of the Senate and
House and stored in the basement, tables and
chairs are covered with crash chandeliers are
bagged in linen, and scrub brushes, brooms and
busters are brought into requisition.
All the carpets in halls, committee rooms,
and offices come up from the floors and are
either sold or sent to the cleansers. At every
new term of Congress new carpets go down
upon the Senate and House floors, where it
requires six hundred and
seventy yards to cover y 49,
the former, and fourteen
hundred the latter. These go

carpets are of the finest Wilton make. An
exclusive pattern is designed for both of them,
which is never used elsewhere until the carpets
are discarded there. Each alternate year they
are sent to the cleanser, for it IS sad truth
that there are some of the members of even
these august bodies who consider that floor
is meant to be spat upon.
The carpets in the committee rooms are also
cleansed and mended, the carpets which first
served upon the floors of the larger rooms being

the dignity of grazing a United States legis-
lative committee room. When they reach
that stage they go to the secondhand shops.

BLANCHARD PULLED
We'll Known Restaurant Man Chuged With Exceeding Speed Limit

A warrant was issued to-day for Elmer H. Blanchard. charging him with overspeeding his automobile on West Main street yesterday after noon. The witnesses are Officer James k. Walsh, Edward McGrath of West Main street and William Costel- 10. Ann street. MT Blanchard runs restaurant on Harrison avenue.
 The speed for all vehicles is not more than twelve miles an hour and outside the city Hints not more than twenty miles an .hour, but the stat utes provide that the condition of the thorOughfare, the traffic and other features in modern cities must first of all control the speed of the ve- hicle.
 This is the first arrest of this kind that has taken place in Waterbury, and it is very doubtful if 1t would have occurred now had not human life been sacrificed to the speed mania.
 It is said that MT Blanchard was driving out West Main street and be- tween North Willow and Judd streets he tore along at a tremendous rate.

GROWN DENIES CHARGE
Sergeant BIaks|y Says He Was h. tsxicated- Surgeon 0'hara Says
 No Suspended.

Charges of intoxication and diso- bedience to superior officer were preferred against Officer Thomas Gro. min today by Sergeant Frank L. Blakely. The case is a most peculiar one and is the result of doings in Brooklyn last evening.
 According to the officer he did not take drink during the evening, and Police Surgeon O'Hara who examined him this morning about 3 o'clock says that Cronin was not intoxicated.
 It was about 1885 this morning when the sergeant met the officer, who had just come from the Brook lyn engine house, where he had spent his allotted time. Blakely accused Cronin of being drunk and told him to rsport to the office. but Cronin re- fused to do so. It is said that the men almost came to blows, and that the officer threatened to lay his club on his superior if the latter attempt- ed to use any force. Blakely again told CrOnin he was suspended, but Cronin did not report at the police station until he was due, which was o'clock this morning.
 In the meantime he had visited the office of Dr John Farrell and wished to be examined, so as to have evil dence that he was not under the m nuence of liquor. Dr Farrell did not care to become involved in the affair and an effort was made to get Police surgeon O'Hara on the phone with out success, so messenger boy was dispatched to the doctors home. He immediately left for Brooklyn, so he stated this morning, and arrived in the office of Dr Farrell about an hour after Blakely accused Cronin of being Intoxicated. Later Cronin accom- panied by O'Hara went to the police station, where, OHara says, he again examined Cronin.
 Dr O'Hara was asked this morning If in his opinion Cronin was drunk.
 lie certainly was not drunk" re- piled the doctor, and he seemed all right to me. The officer was well able to take care of himself, and there was not the slightest thing about his carriage which would lead one to believe that he had been i'm. bibing too freely"
 Officer Cronin, who is suspended until his case is heard by the safety commissioners, was around town to- day. but did not care to discuss the anair of last evening. He said that he had trouble with the sergeant early in the evening, but refused to state in what way.
 The charges against Cronin bring to mind the case which he figured In some years ago. when Chester Allen placed some "doctored" booze 1t is alleged. where he thought Cro- min would find it.

Win Hear Case To-morrow.

At special netting of the board of safety this afternoon, called by the mayor to hear the charges pre- ferred by Sergeant Balkely against Onicer Thomas Cronin. Commissioner Minor presided, all other members being present except Commissioner Andrews. The complaint was sub stantially as follows.
 "I found Officer Cronin In an in- toxicated condition in the cellar of the Brooklyn engine house this morn ing at 1850. l asked him what he was doing there and he said that he came in to see friend. Told him him he should be on the street at that time, the time allowed in the engine house Is from 1 to l:3O, and he said that he was on the street since o'clock. Told him to go on the street and he staggered up the stairs. He put on his uniform and went out. On the outside while he was still staggering. I told him to come with me to the station and he refused. said he had heard of me before and threatened to hit me with his club if 1 touched him. I tried to reason with him. but he would not listen to me and walked away. l cautioned him and told him there might be some trouble if he did not come to the station. Go ahead and do your best he replied. Again l asked him to come to the station. He refused and said. Go ahead and do your damndest.' The of8cer was manifestly intoxicated.
 Officer Lawlor was in the cellar of the engine house when l entereds'
 The board after hearing the charges voted to hold a hearing to- morrow afternoon at o'clock, the clerk being instructed to notify all parties concerned to be on hand with their witnesses.
