ton Of gatekeeper on railway, found
himself the possessor of q barren grav-
ell pit as an apology for a garden. The
dean, who knew the spot well, visited
it some twelve months after the man
had taken possession, and the sight
which met his eyes astonished him.

Washington, Nov. 1S.-The house
insurgents intend to renew the fight
against the present rules of the house
during the coming session. of con-
gress. This Is by authority of Rep
resentative George w Norris. of Ne
braska. one of the leaders of the

fdence in the final overthrow of the
Cannon machine" and declares that
the insurgent army is daily gaining
new recruits.
There will be not less than fifty
Republicans who will push the rules
fight In season and out" said Norris.
There are as many more who viii
join the movement simply because
of their belief that the majority Of
the house should rule. The latter
will not insurge' or anything else
than this, although they will support
the progressive policies in a general
way"
