BABIES" OF HOUSE
MAKE ELOUDP PROTEST
Want Offices in House Building
and Not in Structure Leased
for Their Occupancy.

The baby" members of the House
have heard with great relief Of the
plans for putting another story on the
House office building, wherein men,
bers of the lower body ge. their mail,
see or avoid their constituents and
keep in proximity to the call bells
which summon members when a vote
is being taken or a quorum is needed,
The truth is, the new members don't
like one bit this idea of being separated
from the rest of the fellows A score
or so of the youngsters are over In
the Maltby building, a rented structure,
quite a little distance from the House
chamber and "sorter out of touch with
things"
When the extra session was called
and the 435 members of the House
fiocked into Washington it was i'm
mediately apparent that there wasn't
room in the big office building to ac-
conmodate everybody. When that
structure was erected the membership
Of the House was only Ssl and nobody
thought there would be a reapportion-
ment bill within a few years. The re-
apportionment came because there
try, and it was voted that forty-four
additional members must be added TO
the House in order that the people
might be represented properly at WASH
ington.
Means Some Explaining.
OF these forty-four added starters in
the legislative race, practically every re-
cruit was agreed that he was just about
he ~ ha a
been here right along. Consequently.
when the youngsters got to Washing
ton and ascertained they were to be
stuck of in a building some distance
from the chamber. loud wall went up.
IN make a fine hit with my con-
stituents," privately complained one
self-confident new member. Some Of
my boys will come up here to see me,
and they'll go right away to the House
Office building. Then they'll learn that
haven't got a regular office, like these
fellows who have been here a year or
SO, and my boys will be sent off to a
building way down the hill where I'm
camping out What'll they think when
they find out / have been sidetracked
and am not quartered in the same
mer, and the rest of the leaders? I'll
have some explaining to do. that's ALL"
Work will soon begin on that addi-
tional story for the House Office Build
ing. There probably never will be need
for more than this addition, for the
tendency in the House now seems TO be
to limit the membership TO the present
number, no matter how pOpulous the
country may go. Since the republic
was started, the membership of the low
er body has grown from less than 100
to 435 members. and even the present
session has shown that the lower branch
of Congress is topheavy. 1t is difficult

Mr.. Taylor left town this morning
and will not return until Thursday. The

Rowgowskii and the two coolies lay In
a heap on a mass of loosened earth on
which they had heen swept down the
hill in the wake OF the rock. Emily had
risen To her feet where Lavelle had left
her seated. Her gaze was fixed on him.
He stood with his back to her, and fac
ing the boat Chang stood TO the eass-
ward of her, motionless. His gaze, too,
was fixed on the master.
Lavelle was the first to move. y
stride carried him to the boat. A glance
revealed to him a hole In the starboard
biIge through which he might have
crawled. big man though he was. with
out difficulty. Four of the ribs were
smashed. The keel was shattered Cor
haIf its length. Any but the stoutest
heart must have admitted the craft to
be an irreparable. hopeless wreck.
with d weird cry of insensate rage,
Chang, who had run to Lavelle's side,
turned away toward Rowgowskii and
the coolies. No one who say him and
the manner In which he carried his long
knife could have doubted that the
serang meant to visit instant death upon
the mutineers. His gigantic form trem-
bled with the passional intention of the
slayer. Rowgowskii and the coolies
stood In a paralysis OF fear.
A word from Lavelle stopped the
serang.
