Warm Times in Congress.

The principal issue in the senate
continues to be the Brownsville Incl
dent. Saturday, Senator Tillman
made savage criticism of the presi-
dent, alleging that he had "lynched"
the negro troops whom he had dis
missed. Monday, the president sent
to Congress special message cover
ing the result of special investigation
he had made through agents at
Brownsville, the tendency of which
was to remove all doubt as to the
guilt of certain of the negro soldiers
for the disturbance. He modified his
discharge order in so far as it pro-
hibited the dismissed men from Sc
curing civil service under the govern
ment in future. They may even re-
enlist in the army, if the department
is convinced of their non com plicity
Senator Spooner holds that Congress
has no authority to question the pre-

CLOTHES IN KOREA.
Changed According to the Calendar
and Not the Weather.

A characteristic of the Koreans
which has helped to their undoing as
a nation was the fact that they were
guided wholly by precedent. When a
new situation presented they did not
cope with it in the light of the day
they We're living, but were guided en-
tirely by the old saws and the ancient
maxims of wise men who had been
dead a thousand years or so. A strik-
ing Illustration of this national trait
was furnished in the matter of their
wearing apparel, which was changed
according to an ancient calendar and
without any regard to the temperature
of the day.
Korea is a land of great extremes Of
heat and cold, and the man who draft
ed the calendar by which all clothing
is changed. though Il Chinese sage, it
is said, was not a success as a weather
prophet, unless, as some maintain, the
climate in the course of the hundreds
of years which have elapsed has chang
ed. When the calendar announces now
begins the period of greatest cold the
conservative Korean, although the air
may be soft and balmy, pads out his
white garments with six or seven
thicknesses of cotton wadding, until
the thin man becomes a fat man and
the stout party swells up to such enor-
nous size as to block up the streets
when he walks, or, rather, rolls, abroad.
Again, though spring and early sum-
mer may have come and the heat pre-
vailing be almost tropical, the Korean
swelters about in his wadded clothing
in perspiring veneratiOn of his heredi-
tary calendar.--New York Herald.

Panama Canal Bids Opened.

The Isthmiam canal commission
opened bids for the construction of
the Panama canal Saturday. The low
est bidders were w. j. Oliver of Nash
vile, Tenn, and A. III. Bangs of New
York city, who proposed to do The
work for 675 per cent of the esti-
mated cost of construction. There
were only four bids, and the highest
was over 25 per cent. The govern
ment experts will prepare the plans
and specifications, and will estimate
the cost, the contractors taking the
job at a certain bid upon that esti-
mate. The contractors must furnish
bonds for 100000. The govern
ment reserves the right of sanitation
and engineering, and the supervision
of quarters and subsistence. Oliver
and Bangs have much capital of their
own, and both are experienced in
construction work. Oliver is tunnel
ing Lookout mountain. Bangs was
builder of the 500 canal. The con-
tract will! not be let to them or any
bidder until the commission has in
vestigated fully.

WILL SAIL HIGH.
Largest Balloon in World Being Built
 for Dr Thomas.

New York, March 8.Dr Julian F. Thomas expects to break all aeronautic records next summer in the largest balloon ever built, which is being constructed in this city at the present time. He not only ex- poets to go higher than any aeronaut ever went before, but he expects to make long distance trips, and by means of an invention of his own stay in the air for several days at a time.
 The new balloon is to be so large that 1t has to be made in a number Of different factories. When 1t is completed it will be put together probably in one of the local armories.
 In his experiments this year Dr Thomas will inaugurate two innova- tions, one of which, is successful, will revolutionize air flights and en- able aeronauts to remain in the at- mosphere for days at a time if they want to. This is mechanical de- vice for changing the temperature of the gas with which a balloon or airship is inflated The other is a new propeller in the shape of wheel, with number of small, very thin steel blades instead of the large blades heretofore used.
