Cummings, of New York, in Baltimore, last night, caused general regret and sorrow In the House to-day. Above the hall the flag fluttered at half-mast, and on the floor the old familiar desk on the center aisle near the front row which Mr. Cummings occupied for to many years was draped In black and covered with a profusion of crchida and spring flowers. Mr. Cummings was one of the most universally popular members of the House, and his death seemed to come as a personal loss to all the members. The blind chaplain, the Rev. Dr. Couden, In his invocation, made a touching reference to Mr. Cummlngs's death, his great service to his country as a Journalist and statesman, and ho prayed fervently fors thoe who had been near and dear to him by the ties of kinship. An order was made to give a day to claims after the disposition of the statehood bill and then Mr. Payne, of New York, the dean of the delegation, and the floor leader of the .majority, arose and In simple but fitting words made the announcement of Mr. Cummlngs's death. "It becomes my sad duty," said he. "to announce the death of my distinguished colleague, Amos J. Cummings, which occurred In Baltimore last night. Of his loyalty and courage, his devotion to duty and unswerving patriotism and his long and distinguished service In the House I shall speak when the House shall pet aside a day to pay fitting tribute to hiä memory." He then offered the following resolutions: "Resolved. That the House ha3 heard with deep regret and profound sorrow of the death of the Hon. Amos J. Cummings. late a representative from the State of New York. "Resolved (In recognition of the long and distinguished term of service rendered In this body by Mr. Cummings), That appropriate services be held in the hall of the House on Sunday, May 4. ir02, at 3 p. rn. "Resolved. That a committee of fourteen members of the House, with such members of the Senate as may be Joined, be appointed to take order concerning the funeral. "Resolved, That the e'erk communicate these resolutions to the Senate and transmit a copy of the same to the family of the deceased. "Resolved. That as a further mark of respect to the memory of the deceased the House do now adjourn." The resolutions were unanimously adopted and in accordance with their terms the speaker announced the appointment of the following committee to attend the funeral: Messrs. McClellan, Wadsworth, Sulzer, Ray, Fitzgerald. Sherman and Ryan, all of New York; Young, of Pennsylvania: Clark, of Missouri; Foss, of Illinois; Williams, of Mississippi; McCleary. Minnesota; Tate, of Oeorgia. and Otey. of Virginia. At 12:13 the speaker, as a further mark of respect, declared the House adjourned. Arrangements were completed this evening for the funeral services. The body will arrive hero from Baltimore In the morning and be conveyed to the hall of the House of Representatives by the congressional committee just before the services begin. There will be music by a mixed quartet and the Rev. Dr. Couden, chaplain of the House, who will have charge of the exercises, which will be very pimple, will deliver an opening prayer. The Rev. D.

It is sHfe to anticlpatu that he will not Interfere with tho principle Involved." Mr. Foulke has not reached any conclusion In the Terre Haute case. xxx On Monday Secretary Shaw will announce the banks of the country which are to be added to the list of government depositories. In this respeci Indiana has been very fortunate, nearly all the applications from this State having been favorably acted upon. f xxx Mrs. Alexander Von Dachenhausen, who was probably fatally Injured by falling from a window of her home at Mount Holly, N. J., several days ago, was well known in Washington. Mrs. Von Dachenhausen formerly was Miss Bessie Logne Steele, a popular clerk in the Census Bureau and is the wife of the president irt the South Jersey Electric Light and Traction Company. Her mother is a civilservice clerk in the Pension Office, and the family come from Peru. Ind. XXX Representative Robinson has received word that Alvln Zenumbro, corporal in Company B. Seventeenth Infantry, now located at Mindiano, 1. I., wHl bo given an honorable discharge in June.

Thompson, formerly postmaster at Havana. He remained in Havana a long time as a witness in the Rathbor.e, Neely and Reeves cases at a great personal expense. The endeaver is to have Mr. Thompson placed in the list of witnesses from the United States and not as a resident of Havana. This makes a great difference in the amount of compensation. The secretary recognized the Justice of the proposal and asked the senator and representative to take the matter up with Mr. Magoon, the law offtcer of the War Department. A full explanation was made to this oracial. Mr. Fairbanks and Mr. Ovcrstreet were pleased to hear the words of reganl for Mr. Thompson spoken by Mr. Root.

The intent of the resolution and bill is to secure the extradition of W. 1 Taylor from Indiana to Kentucky, where he is charge J wi.h conspiracy In the murder of Goehel.

cale throughout the country with its natural enemy, the lady bug. brought from the Intel ior of China. Assistant Botanist Marlot has Just returned from the Orient, where he sought the original home of the dreaded scale. Far in the Interior of the latter country, where European plants had not penetrated, he found the scales and also the lady bugs, which kept the scales In subjection and permitted the native plants to flourish. Mr. Marlat started home with a good supply of these lady bugs, and only sixteen survived on arrival in this country, and fourteen of these subsequently died. The two remaining, however, were nursed carefully by the government with a view of righting tho scale in the same manner as in China. There now are fifty of them, requiring the constant gathering cf scales from the department grounds for food. While not expecting the scales to be exterminated from this country, experts are planning to attack them with the increasing breed of their natural enemies.

No exact time was set tor taking up any of the measures. x k x The publishers who are fighting the exclusion of their publications from the secondclass postal rates scored a point to-day in the District Supreme Court. The court overruled the government's motion to reejulre tha complaining publishers, during the pendency of the restraining orders against the PostofTlce Department, to furnish adequate bond or deposit cash with postmasters covering the higher third-class postage on their publications, the excess to be refunded in case the publishers finally win.

The persons subpoenaed are charged with being members of the beef trust and with conspiring to limit the supply of meats and maintain prices on the same. Charles V. Armour and J. C. Dold were served with papers several days ago. Marshal See will summon thirty witnesses la St. Joseph, six in St. Louis and two in Springfield. "Vnnt Prompt Investigation. CHICAGO, May 3. The executive committee of the National Live Stock Exchange met to-day and passed resolutions requesting the government officials to make the proposed Investigation of the so-called beef trust as promptly and as thoroughly as possible and calling upon the different live stock exchanges to take action to endeavor to bring the live fctock trade back to its normal channels and restore confidence. The resolutions deprecate sensational statements about the alleged beef triMt as both the producer and consumer have been placed in a very unenviable position. The resolutions also declare that a trust in fresh beef Is an Impossibility, owing to the volume of the business, the number of people engaged in it and the perishable nature of the commodity. AVIll Knt Xo Ment for Thirty Days. AMSTERDAM, N. Y., May 3. The Amsterdam Central Labor Union, composed of twenty-five subordinate unions, with a total membership of 5,000, has adopted a resolution to abstain from the use of meat handled by the so-called meat trust for the next thirty days. SOCIAL CAXTUUXS IX XUW YORK. A Plan Found Desirable by Settlement Workers. Brooklyn Eagle. A society has been organized in Manhattan to establish saloons for the sale of beer, light wines and temperance drinks under reputable conditions. These saloons are designed to serve the same purpose which the canteens served in the army posts until the intemperate advocates of so-called temperance succeeded in closing them and remitting the soldiers to the vile whisky commonly sold on the outskirts of military posts. The movement is patterned on that which Earl Grey has been interested in promoting in London and which is said to have succeeded there. These New York saloons are to be established by Mi's Wald, a settlement worker on the East Side of Manhattan, with the support and encouragement of the City Club. The idea la to divorce social drinking and entertainment from the vices and Influences which center In too many saloons undtr the present system. In London these places of entertainment are called social halls, and that name indicates exactly the purpose they are designed to serve In New York. The typical tenement offers a man mere shelter, with neither rest, comfort nor social opportunity. The saloon offers him all these, with food In addition, for the price of one glai-s of beer. When he has paid this price he is free to tho social opportunities of his club. But the sales must be large to insure a profit, so the inducements to overdrinking and to gambling and vice follow. Attempts have been made over and over to overcom? the attractions of the saloons by resorts with only temperance drinks for sale. Usually the experiment has been shortlived because an air of patronage or charity has enveloped the places and because the workingman wants his beer as well as his smoke and his glimpse into the doings of his own world. A few have thriven, but they are a drop in the bucket to the needs of the city. If tho new movement makes social centers that are attractive without being dangerous It will have robbed the

ARCHIBALD & saloons of half their power for evil. But to do that its saloons must not be a charity. Not only must their patrons pay for what they get, but they must be made free of the place as they are In the present saloons. Any recreation which is not vicious should be not only tolerated but encouraged. A saloon with nothing but beer and light wines would be such an improvement on existing conditions that any attempt to make it a stepping stone to anything whatever may well be left out of the calculation. T1IU SIX A SERVANT. Cnrlons Motor In-vented by an In frenlons Callfornlan. rearson"s Magazine. There have been many attempts to harness old Sol, to make him work at man's bidding so that his rays, trapped and put to new uses, shall take the place of coal or wood as a producer of motive power. Clever minds in all ages have been at work to devise the necessary trap. Several more or less practical machines have resulted, but none so perfect, so full of promise, as the great sun motor now engaged In storing up the sun's heat at the well-known l'asadena ostrich farm. In California. Ry the sun's heat water is boiled, the steam working a powerful engine, capable of pumping some 1.4U0 gallons of water in a minute. From a distance the California sun motor looks like a huge open umbrella, inverted, and with a piece sawed otf its top. It is balanced on a high steel framework, and Is set at such an angle that it will catch the sunbeams on Its l.Tss mirrors. Each of these mirrors measures two feet in length and three Inches across, and reflects the sunshine on to a long cylinder, corresponding to the handle of the umbrella, which holds about a hundred gallons of water. The boiler is made of steel, covered with a heat-absorbing material. The hot persistent California sua that shines almost every day of the year, when rellected from the mirrors on to the boiler, causes such heat that it is possible to obtain 150 pounds of steam pressure In ojie hour from cold water. When the machine Is made ready for work a task for a boy, who has merely to turn a crank until an indicator shows when the sun Is truly focussed on the mirrors It will move around so that its face is kept turned to the sun all day without further manipulation, under the force of an automatic engine. The boiler is automaticaly supplied with water, a safety valve releasing the steam if the pressure should become too great. All day, every day, from an hour after sunrise to half an hour before sundown, this tireless heat concentrator keeps Its shining face turned to the sun, storing up an energy which may be put to almost any use. It works, under the powerful Callfornlan sun, as well in winter as in summer. TIIC YOUXG JOURNALIST. IIott the Aspirant May Find Ont If lie Has Ability. T. P. O'Connor, M. T., in Pearson's Magazine. I turn to the training of the young aspirant for the literary side of a paper. First, I repeat the warning I have already given: It is not wise for any man to take up Journalism unless he has a. listlnct t1ft for writing. Let me, however, immediately add that it la not easy always for the young man to answer that question satisfactorily In his own case. He may err on the side of want of modesty, but he also may err on the side of excess of It. It is difficult for the most of us to know what powers we have or what we lack until we have been tried until the opportunity has come to us. There is one way of testing your powers of writing that Is a snare. Young writers constantly come to me with what they call essays. I never look at them; life is too short now for essays. When you have become a literary man of repute and can write like Matthew Arnold or Mr. Rlrrell you can do something with essays, but until that moment arrives It is difficult for you to get anybody to look at your essays. Take an Incident within your own knowledgea departure of volunteers, say, for the war; a trial at the assize town In which you live. If you live in one, or something of that kind; try to seize the human and dramatic points of the story, and then let vour article be read by some competent critic, and so you will get something like a Judgment worth attending to as to whether you have or have not the gift of writing. I use the word "gift" advisedly. The longer I live the more I see that, though you may enormously Improve natural gifts by training and practice, you cannot supply them if they be wanting. At schools they still compel unfortunate children, who have not a note of music In their brains, to spend years at the piano. It is Just as wicked a waste nf time to send to Journalism anybody who has no original gift for writing from the hand of nature, for journalism Is one of the professions where one ought to be really good. Mere moderate ability does not brlnrr sufficient remuneration or sufficient certainty of work to make Journalism a nood profession. It is like painting. Either a man Is a good painter and then makes a handsome income, or he Is Just a middling painter, and then he is liable to starve. II utte. Boston Evening Transcript.

Rütte never s-leeps. It is as wide awake at 2 in the morning as at midday, evtry shop open, every industry in full blast. The life of the town depends upon the mines and the smelter; and these never stop.
