FRESH AIR ESSENTIAL FOR RE-
 FRESHING SLEEP,

Y INLIGoI1lANNT lllAIISI
 Most persons spend time enough in sleep, or trying to sleep, to presup- pose that they understand the best way to get the most rest. but. as q matter of fact, comparatively few do. The first great mistake, and one cause of bad complexion and heavy, dull eyes, is that the sleeping rooms are rarely sufficiently ventilated through the night, especially in winter, and equally seldom Is the bedroom given a thorough sweeping through of air in the morning, to freshen it for the day.
 Sleeping in a room that is cold with fresh air will do much toward making person well. but that the room is cold does not necessarily mean good ventilation Here, again is a common mistake among persons who have giv- en the matter little thought, for they fancy that opening a window gives ventilation, It may give cold, but no proper ventilation.

FEAT ON SKYSCRAPER'S FRAME.
 When the last steel girder of the top story of the new Trust Company of America building at Al Wall street was placed Monday morning the ironwork- CTS celebrated their achievement by Borrowing an American flag from the janitor of the Merchants National bank building next door and flying it from the top of one of the uprights.
 The flag was unfurled just when the monday crowd was thickest around wall and Broad streets. and the sight of thousands of upturned faces tempt ed one of the workmen to a feat of daring that made the watchers hold their breath.
 He climbed up the girder nonkey-on- a-stick fachino, gripping it on the far side, and getting a foothold between the hanges facing hi1n. When he reached the top he pulled himself up on the tiny squares of iron capping the tall upright and stood balanced for a minute.

GRBArEsr cArcH oF FISH
1,5Oo Blackfish Driven Ashore on Cape

1,500 Blackfish Driven Ashore on Cape
 Cod and Sold for $15,OO0.
 November r, 1884, on the shores of Cape Cod, Mass, occurred the greatest catch of fish known in the annals of Ameriacn fisheries.
 The Cape Cod fishermen having dis covered an immense school of black fish off shore went out in dorys and fishing vessels and for two or three days and nights drove them, as farmer drives a flock of sheep, until they succeeded in forcing them up Blacktish Creek Bay, in South We'll fleet, Mass.
 The fish went on until they stuck fast and were stranded on the shore. They were then lanced by the skilled fishermen and died on the beach. It happened that the shore was reached just as the tide began to ebb hence the whole school of 1,5O0 blackfish was soon on the dry sand.
 The slaughter was very exciting, some 30 fishermen participating, says the Ohio Magazine.
 One can imagine the death throes of l 1 300 fish weighing from 300 pounds to three tone each. Many of them when dying would utter a plaintive moan, which proved rather trying to the ner- yes even of the hardy Cape Cod fish ermen.
 By the unwritten law of the fisher men all were sold at auction on the beach, at an average price of SlO each, Of .OOO for the 1,5OO fish. It was es- timated that when the blubber was rendered into oil and the bodies into fertilizer the entire value would be about s25OO at wholesale prices.
 The yield of oil from each fish var led from ten gallons to ten barrels, The jaws yield fine quality of oil highly prized for oiling clocks, watch es and other delicate machinery mere were about 40 shares, boy drawing half n chare man a full share, a dory two shares and a fishing vessel six shares-this, too. being unwrltten law among the fishermen,
 The blackish is known by various common names-deductor social, bot tlehead or bowling whale. Strictly speaking it is not a fish at all, but a jet black, carnivorous, viyiparious, warm bloooded mammal, from eight to eighteen feet long, weighing from ! 50 pounds to three tons, and shaped very much like a small sperm whale, i the head having the same square end ! ed sawed nff annear rance
 For the protection of their flesh and vital organs from the cold of the Are tic waters these fish are completely en- veloped in thick layer of blubber from two to bsix inches thick, which lies under the skin and is impervious to the cold. The skin is shining black and as smooth as plate glass,
 A many as 1,5O0 blackfish have prob ably been captured during an entire season, but it was never recorded, ex- cept in the case cited here, that al any one time were so many caught So it may be truthfully said that ir three particulars number, size and value of fish capght-this is the great est American fish catch.

WHY sPooNER REcANTED.

It is probable that if Orville H. Platt were alive John c. Spooner would not have resigned from the senate. The great Connecticut senator was more in- strumental in persuading MT. Spooner to resent his announced decision in 1900 against reelection than was any other influence brought to bear upon him. Between MT Platt and the Wisconsin statesman there was a bond of friend ship as strong as affection. President Roosevelt also begged MT. Spooner to withdraw his declination (and largely for the same reson that Mir. Platt pre- scented such convincing force This was that the republican party was under going a change of policies and leader shin. and that to guide this process safely the service of men of Mr. Spooner's ability and character were needed.
 Ii was toward the close of congress in 1902 that MT, Platt virtually ob- itaned MT. spooner's consent to per init his friends in Wisconsin to re-elect him, in spite of the positive declara- tfon of the latter two years previously that he would not be candidate. The Connecticut statesman then felt that his days were numbered, and in his calm, strong way told Mir. spooner that if he (Mr. PlatD should consult his own convenience and de- sires he would retire to private life for rest which might prelong his days, but that he owed a duty alike to his party and his country to remain at his post in the senate to the end. It was soon after this that Mir. Spooner let it be quietly known in wisconsin that if the legislature should elect him with out fight he would aesept.-Wash- ington Herald

CLEANING BRASS.

Here is the government recipe for cleaning brass. It is used in all the United States arsenals and is said to be the best in the world. This is the recipe: One part of common nitric acid to half part of sulphuric acid. Keep the mixture in a stone jar, hav- ing ready a pailful of fresh water and @ boxful of sawdust. Articles to be cleaned must first be dipped in the acid mixture, then into the water and dried with sawdust. This process of clean ing will change the brass immediately to a brilliant color.

Mr.. RYAN is BETTER.
Assistant Secretary of the Interior Has
Been Seriously Sick.

Washington, D. c.. March Awhile
Thomas Ryan, assistant secretary OF
the interior, has been very sick man
for the past two weeks, there is no
danger of his condition at present, so
the physicians and his family say.
Mr.. Ryan has been ill with acute in
digestion. His years and his system
somewhat enweakened from colds and
more difficult than usual to throw off
the effects of the acute indigestion
He has been absent from his office for
about two weeks, but at no time has
there been any grave danger of his not
recovering his attack
1t was two years ago that Mr.. Ryan
had a severe attack of grip, and was
compelled to go to Atlantic City and
take good rest. His strength has
not been quite the same since, though
he has performed the duties incum-
bent upon his office with regularity
and precision. During the session of
congress just closed, these have been
unusually arduous.
Mr. Ryan has the backing of the
solid Kansas delegation in the reten-
ton of his position, under the change
in administration of the Office Of Sec
rotary of the interior.
Mr.. Garfield, the incoming secre-
tary, who succeeds Mr.. Hitchcock, has
spoken in the highest terms of Mr..
Ryan and his work. and it is believed
there is no danger of his not being re-
tanned.
The delegation at its meeting
strongly Endorsed Mr.. Ryan, and de-
sires him to continue in the office of
assistant secretary. Mr.. Ryan has
filled this position for ten years, now,
having been appointed in 1897 by his
friend and colleague in congress,
President Mckinley. He has had
charge of the office of secretary of the
interior very frequently, and at all
times has had unusually heavy duties
devolving upon him.
The sundry civil appropriation bill
just passed contains the usual item
appropriating $4,000 per annum for
Mr.. Ryan's salary, and $1,000 addi-
tional so long as the office is held by
the present Incumbent. This is a fit
ting testimonial by congress of Mr..
Ryan's worth.

CRANE BEFORE THE COURT.
Asks to Have Fines of Those Who
Sold Liquor to Indians RENTED.

That the United States district
court had no jurisdiction whatever
and that it's findings were void in the
several cases tried for selling liquor to
the Indians on the Pottawatomie res
ervatfon because the Indians were cit.
liens and no longer wards of the gov
eminent is the interesting contention
which A. E. Crane of Holton makes in
a hearing today before Judge Pollock
in an attempt to get fines RENTED
which were paid by bootleggers
caught for selling liquor on the reser-
Walton.
1t is claimed in the cases under
question that the several defendants
had sold to Indians who had already
received their allotmenus from the
government and were therefore citi-
Zens and no longer wards. Crane as
attorney for these defendants declares
that the United States district court
had no Jurisdiction in the cases and
that the fines should be RENTED. 1t
is estimated that about $4,000 is in
volved in the case, representing fines
and interest to date on the fines.
