conversation. But as the average con-
gress does things and talks about
them, it is not so much. For example,
the second; session of the Fifty.ninth
congress, which ended on March 4, of
last year, filed nearly as much space
in the Record as has this session up to
the middle of April. 1908. The first
session of the Fifty:ninth congress had
filled more space by several hundred
pages. Similarly, the present congress
will stand comparison with several
other talkative congresses.
The longest speech in either house
was made by La Toilette. The SEN
ator from Wisconsin consumed the
larger part Of three days in attack
ing the Aldrich bill. The Browns
vile case has not occupied a great
deal of senate time thus far, but there
are several speeches yet to be made
upon it.
Aside from the fact that the senate
has not INDUCED in much protracted
talk, it has not been working as d
body as regularly as usual this ses-
sion. Most of the time it has been ad-
journing over from Thursday to Mon
day-which is not true of the house.
But if congress cannot fairly be &C.
cused of talking more than usual, it
must be admitted that it. is going a
rapid pace in the matter of introduc-
tion of bills. In the house alone
about $1,000 have been introduced up
to date-an average of nearly so for
each member.

Queer Actions of Count Gizycki Recalled

engagement formally known then was
decided upon. Mr.. Patterson was
genuinely provoked, and insisted that
the engagement should be announced
merely without the formula stating
that the parents of the prospective
bride authorized it. Mrs. Patterson,
it is said, seeing that her daughter
was fully determined to become the
Countess Gizycki, persuaded her hus-
band to make the announcement in
the regular way. The wedding fol-
lowed soon.
In his visit to Washington, Count
Gizycki was not invited to be q guest

at the New Willard, where he occupied

All this in face of the fact that the

Sway Of the Typewriter.

The typewriter is playing an impor-
tant part in civilizing the world. The
latest invention in this line is ma
chine capable of transcribing the Jap
anese ideogram; but typewriter" i'm
printing Arabic, Syriac, Armenian, He
brew and other oriental languages
have long been used.
In Turkey the printing of anything,
from circular letter to a book, can
only be done under a permit from the
government. Therefore, typewriters
which imprint Turkish or Arabic char
acters are prohibited from passing
through the custom house. Never
theless, the increasing demand has
somehow produced a small supply.
Bagdad, city of 100000 inhabitants,
has 20 machines, all of which write
Arabic. In Syria, one of the most poly
glot countries in the world, Syriac, Ar
abic and French writing typewriters
are used by many of the business
houses. Persia, which. used the Arabic
script, is learning to adopt the type
writer. To go farther east, number
of Hindustani writing machines are
now used in Bombay and other cities
of India. Chinese seems to be the only
language which still resists the type
writer's endearments. Harper's

Roller Skating Popular at the Capital

1t is daily sight in F streets shop
ping district to see young women, and
matrons, as we'll, swing to the curb in
front of a department store. slip on
their skates and enter, bearing them
in their hand, ready to be donned again
when the shopping is done. In some
of the shops skates may be checked.
Gray bearded men plug along sedate-
ly, twisting and turning to avoid wag-
ons and trolley cars with the nimblest
of the youngsters. Some of the
elders are so skilled in the art that
they manage to maintain respectable
rate of speed while reading news
paper or a magazine, but few take
these chances unless the street is
reasonably free from traffic.
Butcher boys deliver steaks and
chops on skates; the clash and ring
of the tiny wheels betokens the ap-
proach of the matutinal rolls and
cream; the newsboys skate; letter car
riers in the outlying routes use skates
to get about speedily and easily.
Lovers no longer stroll about in
the parks, but glide hand in hand
where the skating is good and in
streets where the electric lights are
not too thickly sprinkled. A rooted
over. skating rink would starve to
death in Washington, where almost
every one has rink room gratis in
front of his door.

China Is a silent country, and new
facts are constantly coming to light to
show that half the story of the great
tragedy enacted at Peking, when the
foreign troops looted the imperial pal.
aces, has never been told. The latest
is the discovery, in a barroom in
southern Germany, of the marriage
contract of the present Chinese EN-.
peror. 1t IS a gorgeous piece of silk.
four feet long and foot wide. richly
emblazoned with Chinese characters.
To the German tavern-keper it was
merely pretty piece of Chinese en-.
broidery, and hung side by side with
brewers calendars and other simple
decorations. The finding of it was due
to the worldwide search which Chi.
nese diplomats and consular agents
have conducted ever since it was
stolen. 1t has now been restored to
the imperial family.
