rooms in the capitol where the com
mittee on pensions was held out so
long Notwithstanding the completion
of the new office building for the sena-
tors. This building is probably the
finest office building in the world and
was erected at a cost Of 1859, ,372.
The furniture and equipment of
the building cost $S00,50o. Each
senator gets a suite of rooms.
EACH suite has an open fire place,
with marble mantel, electric chande-
liers, lavatory. etc. There are ninety
four suites OF three rooms each, and
ninety-four with two rooms each, ten
single rooms. eight committee rooms
besides the conference rooms. rotun-
da. stair hall. postoffice, telegraph and
telephone offices. dining room with
kitchen and pantries. bathing room,
barber shop, offices for superintendent
etc. There is an underground pas
sageway from the capitol to the Office
building with dinkey automobiles run
ming back and forth for the convent
ence of the senators. The building
occupies three sides of an entire block
The north and south dimensions of
the open court is 294 feet and the
014 oined frontage of its three sides
N s84 feet, making the combined
frontage of the building 2,341 feet,
nearly half a mile. There are thir-
teen elevators and seven stair cases,
not including the main staircase. The
offices are on three floors arranged
in double rows, separated by a twelve
foot corridor, one row facing the
street and the other the interior court.
Wnen 1T is considered the apart
ments cost something over $4,000 for
each senator some idea may be gained
of their magnificent appointments.
About $4,000 remains to be spent in
improvements about the building. in
the court and its surroundings. Five
stories are shown on c street, over
looking the Union station and its sur
roundings which are rapidly taking
form. The station and grounds cost
something over $15,000,000. The offices
for the members of the house are near
tne other end of the capitol. and make
a handsome companion to the mag
nificent building. East of the capitol
plaza Is the library OF congress, said
to be the finest building in the world.
On May g. 1861, with the first regi-
ment to reach washington from the
west, ] landed at the old B. & o. de-
pot. and marched up in front OF where
this magnificent Office building now
stands. and well remember the ap-
pearance of the capitol surroundings
In those days. Ellsworth Zouaves
We're camped on the capitol grounds.
There were hastily constructed bar
racks of rough boards In the vicinity
and bakeshops in the basement of
the capitol and supplies stored on the
| first floor, Out near the navy yard
there was corn fiefd and one Of my
regiment. later in the war was killed
by a skulking coward VINO fired on the
regiment from this cornfleld There
were flag stone crossings on the prin-
cipal streets soH1times three or four
inches below the grade of the street
There Is almost as great a contrast
between the Washington Of today and
the Washington of those days as there
IS between the North Dakota OF 1888
and the North Dakota Of today.

ABOUT ALCOHOL.

whether there is a future in this
country for industrial alcohol Is a
rnooted question. Some peopls are
highly optimistic over the possibilities
OF the depaturej alcohol industry.
Others regard 1t az visionary ana inn
practicable. The Chicago Record
Ferald has the following comment.
Alcohol received severe treatment at
the Washington meeting of the Amer
lean Society for the Study of Alcohol
and Other Drug Narcotics. Physician
after physician spoke of the bad effect
on the human system But DR.. T. d.
Crothers of Hartford, Conn, predicted
great future for 1t as a producer of
heat, light and power. He had a vision
of the time when all the breweries
and distilleries in the country would
be needed for the manufacture OF alco-
hol for working purposes.
With the gradual fulfillment of his
prophecy he would probably expect a
very appreciable weakening OF the re-
sistance to temperance crlsades, since
the opposition has much to say now
Of and TO the financial interests in
volved in the liquor business 1t ap-
peals to grain raisers, hop growers and
vineyardists 1t shows that through
the operation Of breweries and distil-
leries these people derive an income
which in some cases constitutes the
whole income. Their interests are thus
brought into a combination with tt q
manufacturing interests, and they are
treated as direct interests, which arc
much more easily appraised and made
1 more Important to the investor and
farmer than the losses from the ex
4cessive use Of alcoholic drinks in in
dividual eases.
But DR.. Crothers proposes to do
away to a large extent with the need
for the appeal He would encourage
the production of materials out oi
which alcohol could be made by cree
ating a tremendous demand for 1t as d
substitute for electricity and steam
With the financial and Industrial IN
terests thus cared for he thinks thai
there would be an inevitable decline

story dramatized from the novel of
Bertha M. Clay is underline at the
Fargo operahouse this evening with
Miss Donothy Kenyon in the leading
role.
Why Girls Leave Home will be the

The story tells of wilful young girl
who innocently got into bad company,
but her brother, also a ineadstrong per-
son, sought to advise her bv angry
speech. Nettled by his attitude the
girls gets deeper into the clutches of
a designing wanton. The brother in
a frenzy, strikes her and thinks he
has caused her death, when in reality
she has been carried away by his ene-
mics in order that he might be hanged
for the crime: fatal results seem i'm
minent, when by fortunate combina-
tion of circumstances all danger is
averted.

WHAT'S THE USER

Murray found an abundance of
microscopic life, rotifera. division Of
animalcules, etc. in the fresh water
lakes near Cape Royd. Ringed PEN
gums also were found there, The
chief vegetation consisted of large
sheets of fungus-lilSe plants. many
lichens and a few moses. There was
an abundance of seaweed. Professor
David considers that most of the ant
arctic bergs are of snow -. ..s.~.
That appears to be the net result
Of the heroic labors Of Lieut.. Ernest
H. Shackleton, in his expedition to
the south pole. Also he had the salts
faction of planting the British flag in
a region Of storm and blizzard-a few
miles farther south than the flag of
any nation was ever planted before
and, incidentally, of baptizing with
his own name some peak or cape that
has been compelled to remain name
less since the dawn OF creation--and
which probably nobody will ever see
again. 1t has cost a good deal of
money and much heroic effort to
achieve this result-and it will doubt
less be all done over again by some
restless adventurer who seeks to get
a little farther south than Shackle-
ton. But what's the use?
The discovery of either the Arctic
or the Antarctic poles will add moth
ing to the sum Of practical human
knowledge. The exact location Of the
poles on the atlas is known-and the
world has learned that for all prac-
tical purposes they are inaccessible
and valueless. There has not even
been a trace of gold found in their
vicinity-if there had been every inch
Of their territory would have been
long ago explored by restless prospect
ors-and all the real estate in the
vicinity would be dear at 80 cents the
square mile. But it is useless to dis
cuss the question. Adventures with
nothing more practical to occupy their
minds will continue the quest-and
men with more money than brains will
continue to finance them.
