Special Correspondence.) Another bill, the purpose of which Is to deprive the soldiers of the army of Intoxicating beverages, has been introduced In the house. It waspresented by Mr. Bower-sock of Kansas and, if adopted, will prevent the selling of and dealing In beer, wine or any intoxicating drinks In any post exchange, canteen, transjwrt or premises used for military purposes by. the government. A fine ranging from $100 to $500 is Imposed for each offense. Temperance advocates throughout the country have been strongly urging congress to abolish the post exchange or canteen, claiming such action would promote the interests of tbe soldiers. There Is a decided opposition to this movement by congress, and it is extremely doubtful if any measures providing for the abolition of the canteen would receive the. vote of a majority. This Is partlcalarly true 'as almost without exception the army officers are in favor of the canteen. Last year the secretary ef war sent out a series of questions to the officers nd noneoniiu-ssioned men asking what effect the abolition of the canteen would have upon the soldiers. The following are fair samples of the answers received: "Increase of drunkenness. The effects f abolition would be disastrous. In Cuba It would increase the death rate, as men would drink rum. I am emphatically In favor of the post exchange. It has done more for the enlisted men than any other reform during the last 20 years. The men have comforts they never had before. . ' I have observed the workings of the canteen feature f the exchange system since It was established. No suggestions for Its Improvement." Some -Ftirarea Pcwaloaa.

To Mexican veterans the payments now are $1,107,594 and to widows of Mexican war soldiers $818,007. On the Union side the enlistments for the civil war were 2.77S.3.U.

of desks in the rotunda of the Con
gressional library, "we have a rather large school, and all our students seem
to be very comfortable. No; I do not see how we ever accommodated half the people who wanted to read In the old quarters, and 1 am at a loss to understand where all the new patrons of the library come from. This Is about the number of persons to be found In the library at 3 o'clock on an afternoon when the weather Is fair.
Nothing that I Imagine could be more
comfortable for those who desire to
read up r to follow a line of references. We simply could not go back to the old conditions and get along." When Mr. Spofford talked this way, every desk seemed to be occupied, yet there was such silence In the rotunda that no student could possibly complain of being interfered with In any way. The rotunda, by the way, is apparently complete, with all the statues li place and the scheme of decoration perfect ed. but Mr. Spofford said that there were a few details lacking. Next to the Washington monument tbe Congressional library Is the favorite sight for visitors. Not the least of its attractions Is tbe restaurant in the top story of the building Spaalah War Claim. Secretary Root has sent the draft of a bill to the bouse authorizing the secretary of war to cause to be investigated and to provide for the payment of all just claims against the government for private property taken and used within the limits of the United States during the war with Spain. The damages alleged to have been caused by tbe troops while in camp or traveling through the several states amount to $132,000. When Vice President Hobart 'was first taken ill. he realized he would not be able to spend tbe winter in Washington. He felt a marked fondness for all his associates and sat for a picture In order that all of his friends among the senators would have a reminder of him In the way of a phonograph. Although the vice president did not live to distribute these pictores personally, still Mrs. Hobart has been mindful of bis wish, and each senatorial household has received one of these tokens of Mr. Hobart's thoughtful!-ess.

A Whimsical Sketch. BY EMILE ZOLA.
An aunt has bequeathed me an An

following story one winter evening as
we were sitting together by the fire
I was 2 years old ai the time and the

equally cxit-lieut: never am
bread or soup, but always mi -at good
-aw meat.
Yet a in HI ail these joys aud comforts I had only one desire. I knew only one dream namely, to slip through the
open window and escape over the
roofs. 1 was tired of caresses; 1 was disgusted with the softness of my bed;
I was so fat that 1 felt horrified when
ever I caught sight of myself; bence It
was that I felt bored all day long.
I ought to have said that 1 could see
the opposite roof from our window whenever I stretched my neck out a
little. There four cats had great fun
every day prancing around with bris
tling hair and tails erect as they sang
their joyous sor.gs amid the sunlight
on the blue tiles. Such a wonderful
sight I have never before seen.
The very day when I first saw them I made up my mind what to do. True
happiness was only to Ik found on that
roof beyond the window which your aunt always so carefully closed. I determined to escape. I felt that there
must be something else in life besides raw meat. Yonder lay the unknown, the Ideal, world. One day they forgot -to close the kitchen window. I sprang out on a small roof Ixdow.. How beautiful the roofs were! Broad gutters ran around them, and these 1 followed with unspeakable delight, my paws meanwhile sinking deep lu soft, warm mud. I -aeeiued to be walking on velvet, and the sun shone warmly down on me. and Its hot rays seemed to melt my fat. Yet 1 must admit that I was trembling in every limb. My joy was mingled with fear aud anguish. Especially do I remember a horrible occurrence, which almost made me fling myself down on the pavement. From the peak of an adjoiniug house carue three cats rushing toward me with fearful miaouws. When they saw my terror, they laughed and said they had only intended to scare me. When I heard tha I began to nilaouw with them Oh. it was great sport! The rascals were by no means as fat as I was. aud much fun they made of me as I rolled myself around like a ball on tbe sun warmed zinc roof. An old tomcat was one of the company, and he became very friendly toward me. He even offered to train me properly for outdoor life, an offer which 1 gladly accepted. - Ah, how far away was your aunt's comfortable borne! I drank some water on tbe roof, and no sugared milk ever tasted as sweet to me. Everything, indeed, seemed beautiful. A very handsome young lady cat was strolling near us. au 1 at the mere sight of her 1 fell In love. Until that time these delightful smooth skinned creatures bad only ap
peareti to me in dreams. So 1 approached the yonng lady and was about to pay her a compliment r.'heu one of my comrades bit me horribly in the neck. I uttered a fearful yell. "Bah!" said the old tomcat soothingly as he drew me away. "You'll soon see lots of others." After walking for an hour I felt tei rlbly hungry. "What do cats eat on the roof?" I asked mv friend the tomcat.
"When you see meat on a ta
ble. yon must understand that you can only enjoy it from a distance. If you want food, you'll have to look on the I roofs."
His statement that meat in kitchens
does not belong to cats was Incompre
hensible to me. Now Indeed my stom
iach began to clamor most earnestly for
food. 1 he tomcat filled me with despair by his assurance that we could not expect to get much food before nightfall. "When darkness comes," he
i said, "we will go down Into the street
and ' search through the ash heaps. Wait till nightfall." How calmly he
i said that, tbe hardened old nhllosonhr!
