WANT oR|EN1ALS BARRED
NEW LEAGUE WILL URGE CON-
GRESSIONAL ACTION.
Fight Was Made at Last Session
and Is to Be Renewed
at Next.

Congressional action in regard TO orlen-
tai immigration is looked for by the men,
bers of the National Anti-Asiatic Immi-
grafton League. which was organized IN
this city last night. 1t is understood that
at an early meeting Of the executive OFF,
GERS of the league. the date for which
has not as yet been set, the work OF pre-
pairing for the presentation to Congress of
the leagues ideas upon such exclusion
will be taken up and pushed vigorously.
At the recent session of Congress there
were many representatives who were will
ing and anxious to have passed some
measure regulating more closely the en-
trance Of orientals into this country. Pa
cific coast members of the House were
particularly interested in this movement.
and Representative Hayes of California,
one Of the leading insurgents with regard
to most matters dominated by the Big
Five" was the author Of bill which had
for its object the effectual regulation OF
oriental immigration.
At the time of the currency legislation,
however, the members of the House par
ticularly interested In the suppression OF
such immigration were forced to leave
that subject and it was never taken up
during the remainder of the session.
These members. of whom at that time
there were at least a score, will all be
ready, it is believed. to listen to the pleas
of this newly organized league. and IT II
practically certain that effort Of
more determined kind will be made at the
coming session to have suitable meas
ure put through.
Yoder Is President.
At the meeting last night former Repre-
sentative S. s. Yoder was chosen presi-
dent, while other officers chosen were:
Representative Frank Clark of Florida.
Cotter r. Bride, a personal friend of Will
liam Jennings Bryan: John H. Brinkman
of the Central Labor Union and DR..
Charles FL Emmons. vice presidents; A.
w. Thomas. secretary. and Richard r.
Evans, treasurer
A number made addresses during the
meeting, and all arraigned the importa-
ton of cheap labor from the orient. All
were heartily in favor of making deter
mined effort to rid the states of coolie
labor and exert every legitimate effort to
procure the passage of exclusion legisla-
ton by Congress. According TO the or
ganizers Of the league, 1t is planned to
establish a branch organization in every
state in the Union and conduct an active
campaign throughout the country until
the object is accomplished.

SCIENCE NOTES.

A new freezing device is being exploit
ed in Germany. which is especially adapt
ed for domestic purposes. The apparatus
is quite inexpensive to make and operate.
1t consists merely of a double wall tin
vessel with a capacity Of five gallons,
The hollow space between the two walls is
about an inch across. BY the gradual ad-
mission of carbonic acid into this hollow
space through an opening at the bottom
and from there to the vessel proper
through a cross-arm tube. it is claimed
that water may be converted into ice in
the space of sixty seconds and that meats
fruits and beverages. such as beer OF
wine. may be chilled or frozen in a few
seconds. This effect is produced by the
sudden great reduction of temperature
caused by the rapid expansion OF the car
homie acid. which is admitted from an
ordinary carbonic acid reservoir.
One of the newest pieces of electrial
equipment for hotel use Is system of

and management for the girl having
charge OF any particular room may be
communicated with without any loss OF

The amateur gardener soon learns that
the use of the rake Is not as easy as it
seems to be. The teeth are constantly
getting clogged with the rakings and IT
