HOLGATE'S LETTER SOMETHING OF INTEREST ABOUT LIFE IS WASHINGTON, New Suit ot Skin tor a Child. It Came - From the Arms and Xegs ot bis 'Father and Four ': Brothers Fire Months ja the Task. : i - Ed. Times: . In discussing, the -proposition "to increase 1 me pay. s ui seuaiuia auu representatives', Senator Bailey said, (it was his maiden speech, as sena tor, by the way.) "The present salaries are sufficient, for they ena ble one to hvei.decently and com fortable and that is enough. Be sides, the increase would mean lit tle to the legislators. Washington people have grown so expert in .the art of separating us and our money, that to increase our salaries would only result in augmenting the , in come of these Washington people." This voices the" idea, generally founded on experienced that life in Washington is an expensive luxu ry. This is usually true, though no jieces8ariiy so. As jelsewheae, it is largely a matter of one's desires and habits and ability to manage. Of course, I have had no experience save as a departmental servitor, but the "big bugs", set the pace for all, even down to. the "dark meat" of the . capital's - population; and while the rank have cecessarilly expenses not devolving upon the civil service file they, have . the much greater salaries with which to, rneet Jhose expenses." YThe! rela tiorTof a little personal experience, therefore may be pardonable. fc Conforming to the - custom- here, I have changed borrdiDg houses of ten, and have tried a dozen places, located in difFerent parts of the city, apd have paia for room and board from $20 to $35 per month. J have not ooticed .very, much-difference jn the board, i the IheighborhoOd 1 gov e'rning' the pricee. iOne simply pays for the privilege of living in a fash-T: lonable section of town. At present, three of us have the "entire third floor, two rooms houses here are seldom-more than . two rooms deep large, pleasant and nicely furn ished. We use one room as a bed room and the other as a "den.". The board is excellent and we pay only $20 a month each. T know from experience that one can enjoy him self, and on a, ealary ., of WOO a month, easily save $50i I know al so that he can easily spend ' the en tire $ 100 and not know how it hap pened..' . .-, ,. f r ., .-.-.. --V . Concerning the 'Oregon delegation in congress, Senator Mitchell's ex penses are probably much more than those of Senator Simon. His acquaintance with public men is naturally larger and more intimate and the exchange of social courte eies in the way of, , dinners? etc..-f is both imperative, among the mem bers of the upper hpUBe, and expan sive, In the house one's social standing has little effect on bis leg islative influence and the amount a member spends in this way is chief ly a matter r of inclination. - Mr. Moody is popular among the'clube and 1 doubt if his salary more than pays his way. Mr. Tongue has al ways "one or more of his daughters here while congress . is in session, but he, himsejf, is far too busy with congressional matters to ac cept many of the social invitations that are showered upon him. The old timers in congress direct the legislation, but they must' do most of the work. II. L. Holgate. . Pretoria, Feb. " 16.

" - " Schennectady, N. Y., Feb. 12.- The World's biggest and most pow- erful locomotive, built here, has left for;the far west, where it will haul heavy freight on the Santa Fe It represents the highest achievement in locomotive design, the most not able effort of American . builders to produce san engine -i of enormous tractive power adapted to the . rug ged roadbeds of the transcontinent al lines. As a bold venture in mas sivenessj "989's" rigorous "service tests in the mountains of the trans miasouri attracts the atteniton of th railway engineers of the world. The builders of England and the Continent builders judged Ameri cans insane .wben theynassed the hundred-ton mark, hut here is" a monster weighing, without the 50 ton tender, 26o,ooo pounds t wen-one-times as much as the historic Dl Yitt ClintoD. , vf - yrom the end of the tender to the point of the pilot this giant of the rail-' measures seventy feet- Two en gines of "989's" type, if they could be suspended in the air, one above the other, would reach a height! as nearly as great as that of Niagara. The top of the stunted smokestack is sixteen feet above, the ties, and to euch a great : height does the dome reach that its top had to be taken off before the ? locomotive could pass in safety under the over headbridgesj. between Schenectaday and BaffalotThe mastive boiler, nearly seven feet in diameter, is perched eo high, in the air that a tall man can stand under it. But iLwhiie tie dome top is thirteen feet above the driving-wheel axles, the eentre of gravity is very low sev eral inches below the top line of the drivers. ..The engine gets its great stability from its massive framas, cylinder , castings, driving wheels and driving mechanism. On a level track "989" could haul a train a mile and a half long car rying the harvest of 10,ooo acres of wheat Its tractive power is exactly 53,9oo pounds that is, it could lift this amount of dead weight. Its great wheel fease gives " "989". this world's record hauling power. . Ten massive driving wheels," nearly as tall as a man, and so heavily coun terbalanced that ' they ' appear': al most solid, grip twenty feet of tiack. On these ten drivers which give the name decapod to this type ot engioe a weight of . 232,oob pounds is carried. ..The pony truck carries but fourteen tons, much of ; the weight of the saddle acd cylinder castings being distributed over the drivers by the equalizer beam -so distinctive of American design." - To make use of this unprecedent ed 'driving.; weight .. of 115 tons, "989" must produce steam as no other engine ever has. Following the growing - practice : among the railways of the Southwest, the San ta Fe will burn oil in this, its . best engine. , Its fire box, made of car bon steel tested , to a tensil strength of 60,000 pounds to the square inch, is as big aa the bed cbambe r of a New York flat. Ita two thick shells are held together by nearly two thousand' tough stay bolts, each one capable of lifting a yard engine without breaking. ----.T ; . i The great area is jixty square feet, unapproached in any locomo motive ever built. . ; The bottom of the fire box reaches, out . . over the tops of the drivers, after the' fash ion of recent American locomotives. 'Monaco, Feb. .14. Santoa-Du-mont. the aeronaut, met with a dis- escape trom death. Jtlis airship is a total wreck, while tonight hia motor Jies at .the bottom of the bay of Monaco -'rt' ' - " " s"..VI ",'; ? t , The morning broke "gloriously, but as there was considerable wind Santos-Dumont decided not - to at tempt flight.;? Toward 2 o'clock in the afternoon the wind dropped and the, weajfcer appeared to be perfect; Santos-ImmoBt announced that he would make a trip. A big crowd assembled: at the entrance of the aerodrome, and as the large doors of the building rolled back the air- ship emerged at 2:58." A number of steam yachts and launches, . in cluding " the prince of Monaco's yacht, , Prince Alice, with several parties on board, were cruising a bout the bay, with the intention of following the balloon.

At the same time a squall burst, and Santos-Dumont tilted the head of his balloon upward, in order to disengage the' guide rope; But in so doing the ballast shifted, aDd the oil used to run the motor began to spread. Fearing an ex plosion, the inventor pulled the e mergency cord: This ripped the envelope of the balloon, which at once began rapidly to desceud. : Santos-Dumont did not lose his head .; He ; could , easily be seen from -the jehore, watching the vari ous parts of the airship. At this time the balloon had slightly right ed itself,, and the lower part, haviDg become empty, the airship dropped slantingly toward the pigeon-shooting ground, which borders the bay. "In the mean time the steam launches in the bav were making toward the spot where it was ; aup posed the balloon would fall. The first to approach was the Princess Alice, belonging to the prince of Monaco, and those on board seized the balloon's J guide rope, which somehow had become disentangled. At the moment this was done a sharp cracking sound, made by the motor could be r; heard, and ' the screw was seen to revolve. The balloon, which was then almost in he sta, rose alowly for a few mo ments. "But the motor, stopped a gain, and the airship descended a second time, until', SantoE-Damont was immersed up to his armpits in water.. . " ''-'.' '..The sceene . was witnessed with intense excitement by onlookers a shore and afloat. The aeronaut, with the pluck that has character ized him throughout his dangerous experiments, could, be seen stand ing up in bis car, gesticulating and shouting directions, to those on the launch, which was towing: him. to ward the Princess Alice. -At 3:5 the end of the balloon burst and the prince of Monaco, who " waa on board the launch, then gave orders to rescue Sautos-Dumont from hia perilous . position. The launch came along side the half-deflated balloon of the airship, which threat ened at any ' moment to smother Sanfo -Dumont. : The latter was half pulled and half clambered over the gunwale into the boat. I he prince of Monaco' took . him by the hand and urged him to allow him self to be taken on board the yacht, to dry himself and change his clothes. ' But the aeronaut refueed to do this until the rhemnanta ofte airship had been saved. -h i With the sea water dripping from his clothes and looking like a water rat, the inventor stood in the bows of the launch, shouting directions for the salvage of his airship. It was impossible to save more than the silk envelope. The motor had to be left to its fate, and it sank. The launch,' with the inventor, then made for the shore. . As Santos-Du mont landed, the great assemblage which had gathered 'on the : shore acclaimed with extreme enthusiasm His first words Of a hurried inter view, obtained as he made his way toward his residence, were: "I am notdiscouraged.
