op by many Of his associates for the
reason that each y~ar he makes a sort
OF pilgrimage 70 smarr- towns and the
countryside Of Maryland. Virginia. and
West Virginia In this way the bishop
is able 10 come into close touch with
the people
In the course OF his sermon Bishop

BOLD BURGLARS
MAKE GOOD HAUL
CorcOran Building Offices
LOOted-ThieveS Sc
cure $500.

The daring work Of burglars who loot
ed many offices in the Corcoran Build
ing. at Fifteenth and F streets north
west. early yesterday morning. carrying
away as booty over 500 in cash and
other valEables, stin battles the police
department At q late hour today no
clue had been found 70 lead TO the iden-
tity of the perpetrators Of the crime. De
tectives detailed on the case believe the
work was either that Of professionals
or perhaps amateurs whose knowledge
OF the building and the working Of the
locks enabled them to clothe their op-
eratons with some degree Of clever
ness.
The offices pIundered were: n. D. Nc
Donald Company, publishers: W. T
Walker Brick Company, the Michigan
Mutual Life Insurance Company, the
Deis Pump Company, A. S. Pratt &,
SopS, and D. II. TOlman- The principal
vici of the robbery was the Mcdonald
company, whose safe is an old one and
which was apparently opened with ease
by the burglars. who broke the knob on
the safe, and. prying open the cash
drawer. secured its contents. In the
other offices, while the safes were all
tampered with, they were Of modern
els and sledRe hammers which were
used in the effort to pry them open. Al
most all of the desks in these rooms
were broken open and valuable papers
scattered pell-mell.
Worked Without Molestation.
The safe-bTeakers entered the building
some time before midnight and com
pleted their operations between the
hours of 1 and o'clock. One startling
fact Is that the series Of robberies were
committed, without detection, when sew
eral people we're within fifty feet of the
burglars and were not disturbed by any
noise.
Captain BOardman has detailed De-
tectiyes BurHngame, Weldon, Horne
Flather, Hewlett and Pratt to the task
OF running down the criminals.
Night Watchman William Proctor said
he was in the basement of the building

CONGRESS WILL
ADJOURN friday!
Calendars Have Been Franz
ed Up With That End
in View.
CANNON LECTURES MEMBERS
This Weeks Business Will Exceed in
Volume That of Past Three
Months.

BY working constantly day and night.
the House of Representatives hopes TO
conclude its session next Friday after
noon.
The Senate will endeavor to end its
labors on the same day, but there IS a
slight chance that it viii run over until
Saturday. On the whole, however, the
probabilities are that both branches Of
Congress will adjourn next Friday.
Between now and then the House will
be in session every day from IL a m.
until .. m. and again from s D. m
until IL p. m or midnight.
Cannon Lectures Members.
The Speaker when the House con-
vened this morning, gave the members
a short lecture. telling them that the
only way to transact business in these
last days Of the session was to pre-
serve order and attend to all matters
with intelligence and celebrity. He said
that more business OF public impo1-
ltance will be transacted this week than
has been transacted during the past
three months.
Rushing Calendar Work
To-Day is a fair sample of the amount
of work that will be done every day be-
tween now and the time of adjourn
ment. 1t is today's program TO dispose
of the general deficiency bill, the i'm
migration bill, and TO have reported TO
the House the public buildings bill,
which will be brought in at $3.50 this
afternoon Every day there will be
many conference reports, and in many
of the important committee rooms con-
ferees are in constant session.
In other words, the members have
gotten busy, and are determined to put
no obstacle in the way OF leaving

DIETARY DICTA.

Dinner should be of a lighter nature
In summer than in winter.
A quart of wheat contains more nu-
triment than a bushel of cucumbers.
There is a happy mean between eat
Ing everything and being squeamish.
Two pounds Of potatoes contain as
much nutriment as 10 pounds Of
turnips.
Light soups, light desserts and light
meals should have the preference in
warm weather.
Vegetables and fruits are to be used
most generously at that season of the
year in which they naturally mature.
