Congressional Grind Begins
Numerous Bills Are introduced In Both Houses

Debate

Washington, D. c.. Dec. 10.-The
session of the senate yesterday was
chiefly devoted to the formal presenta-
tons Of departmental reports and the
introduction of bills. The reports have
been made public from time to time
and the bills numbering 352, were
chiefly for the granting Of pensions.
Senator Johnston of Alabama. intro
dueed a bill to reinstate former cadets
Rossell and Weaver. dismissed from
the military academy for hazing. He
declared that their punishment was
excessive and said that every new ca

Washington. D. c.. Dec. 1O.-For
nearly five hours the house Of repre-
sentatives yesterday considered the
bill providing for the taking of the
thirteenth and subsequent decennial
census and passed it without material
change. From the very outset in the
debate 1t became evident that the
progress of the measure toward pass
age would be impeded by numerous
amendments and by the arguments
which they developed.
Prolonged, animated, and at times
heated discussion was precipitated
over an amendment by Mr.. Gillett,
who sought to have the temporary cen
sus force authorized by the bill with
the exception of a few minor posi-
tions, appointed on the basis Of com.
petitive instead of noncompetitive ex.
aminations.

learned at the department today that
the white woman referred to in the
annual report of the commissioner Of
Indian affairs as being given a life
annuity in the Usage nation, but
being refused land allotments, is Jane
Appleby, who married a banker and
is now living at Tulsa.
The national attorney for the
0sages, Mr.. Merrilat. says that Mrs.
Appleby is 20 years old, and that not
withstanding her own admissions Of
recent yeers that she is worth $780,
900. she was admitted by the Osages
to their rolls in order that she might
draw rations, and be entitled to COW
range in the Usage country. She has
had large experience in handling cat
tie and other business affairs, and
took an active part in lots of legisla-
ton demanded by the cattle interests
of the Usage nation, and which was
granted by the Usage council. Virgil
Herard is a white man who was ad-
mitted in the same manner for the
same reasons. He is easily worth
100000 and was once granted free
COW range for 10000 head Of cattle by
the Osages.

PATRICK MARTIN, VICTIM OF A
NOTORIOUS $4,000 sWINDLE,
PASSES AWAY.

TRENTON, N. j., Aug. 4.-Patrick
Martin, of Bordentown died at his
home In this city yesterday, aged 60
years Mr.. Martin was an extensive
owner OF real estate, and sprang into
prominence q few years ago when 4
supposed nephew sold two gold bricks
TO him.
The case Is a famous one In this
state. 1t appears that Martin had "a
brother who went west. A supposed
nephew came TO his house here In
Trenton. He told story OF Indians
camping in the asylum woods near
here and with bricks OF real gold.
which they wanted To- sell at much
below their actual value
Mr. Martin visited the camp, bor-
ings were made by the Indians" in
the bricks. and the dust assayed the
purest gold. Martin went TO the bank,
drew out $4,000. and bought the
worthless stuff. The nephew, OF course
disappeared.
One OF the bricks holds back a door

BOY TOURED j. S.
WITHOUT A PENNY
RAN AWAY FROM BROOKLYN
TWO YEARS AGO; WAS FOUND
IN A BOX CAR IN DULUTH.

NEW YORK, Aug. S.-Inspired by
the adventures of the heroes Of Du-
mas, Victor Hugo, Kipling and other
writer's of Action, l5-year-old John
Hayes, of No. 1S2 Monroe-st., Brook
Ign, left his home two years ago to
lead the life of a soldier OF fortune.
He returned to the paternal roof yes
terday, filled with exciting yarns or
his many adventures. His parents
had spent a small-sized fortune In
searching the country for him.
Young Hayes had turned up in Port
Huron. Mich. He was arrested with a
gang of tramps in a box car or the
Grand Trunk yards In that city by
Sheriff Davidson. The boys father,
who Is employed as Il foreman for "A
shipping concern, wired the necessary
funds to the sheriff for the travellers
transportation home, and the boy was
met on his arrival here by his father
and mother, and forgiven.
Hayes. who Is remarkably intelli-
gent lad when seen at his home de-
clared the reason he had left without
the formality of notifying his parents
was because his mother insisted upon
ting him to read fiction OF the higher
class.
Ever since he was able to read and
write he has had passion for the
heroes of fiction. He speaks almost
perfect English. and is now perfect
ing himself in French and German.

Reed Laths In Germany.

Consul II. w. Harris, of Nuremberg
writes that the use OF small reeds as
a substitute for plastering laths is
common in Germany. The reeds are
chiefly imported from Hungary by
Danube boats. and vary in length
from / to 21-2 yards or even more,
and from 5-s inch to l l-2 inches In
diameter.
BY machinery these reeds are fas.
tened together by wires TO form a
mat as wide as the reeds are long,
and this Is cut and fastened TO walls
In place OF laths In some cases
builders require the mating to be
put on double. the aim being TO have
the reeds In the upper mat fall at
the interstices In the lower mat
