LEWIS ENTERS. .Two Doori'Admlt the Visitor, and the Senate Chamber Is impressed. The character of the present congress Is J. Hamilton Lewis. He is a character not to be comprehended all at once. He grows upon you. It takes some time to realize how strange he is. His ex travagance of dress and his attitude first attract attention. When he enters the house, no matter what is doing, every eve instinctively turns toward him, like the eves of the audience iu a theater turn to the leading man when he breaks through the throng of minor actors. Mr. Lewis visits the senate frequent ly. There is nothing more dramatic than his entrance into the presence of that august body. He never by any chance enters through one of the side doors. The senate may be engaged in a heated debate or deeply absorbed in a bewildering schedule of the tariff bill. Suddenly a sense of something hap pening comes upon everyone. People in, the galleries look down and the in terest of the senate is arrested. Both the swinging doors of the main entrance at the head of the center aisle, facing the vice president, swing open and Mr. T.ewis nnoears. The doors close be hind lia "jnd he stands for a moment tinder the archway, his hat and gloves in one hand in front of him, and looks toward the vice president with a slight inclination of the head, as much as to Bay: ,Do not let me interrupt you. Then he looks wjth 0 sweeping glance to the f right and to the left, slightly inclining J his body. He then straightens himself ! up and sweeps the galleries -with a glance. By this time every eye is upon him, and, with the graceful, dainty steps of a dancmpr master, he walks over to the democratic side of the cham ber, greeting in the most graceful man ner imaginable each senator who hap pens to be in his path to the vacant seat he is making lor. . His manner of greeting is to shift his hat and. gloves. from bis right hand to his left with a flourish, taking two steps forward, as if about to extend his right hand, at the same time inclining his body grace fully and giving his hat a great sweep by his side, as the ideal cavalier trails -his- plume to the ground in bo-wing to "my lady." It would be impossible for him to enter into c2y presence without attracting attention, and apparently he has no. intention of trying to do so. With his fluffy hair and whiskers, both parted in the middle, he looks like some of the portraits of Capt. John Smith of about the time when he is supposed to have excited the imagina tion ' of the impressionable Indian maiden. Instead of the glittering trap pings of a knight, his dress is a dis play of the highest skill of the tailor, setting off his slender form in all its graceful lines and clinging to him with an affectionate softness. His every movement ends in a posture, and, with a gentle undulation, he passes from one posture to another. His voice is music and his words flow like poetry being reeled off 220 words to the minute Philadelphia Telegram. THE LIGHT OF THE FUTURE. Studying; Tbat Produced hy Animal and Vegetable Life. The incandescent electric light wastes. and throws away 93 per cent, of the en ergy utilized, only two per cent, ap pearing in the shape of light rays. On the other hand, the light emitted by the firefly and the glow worm wastes but two per cent.. In other words, the ani mal light is 48 times cheaper. In the course of recent experiments Dr. Raphael Dubois, of Lyons, has made elaborate studies of a great many kinds of light-producing creatures. There is no lack of them in nature; in fact, thou sands of species possess this curious photogenic power. Xo't a few plants also have it, and "among the latter may be mentioned certain mushrooms that grow in Brazil and Austria. Some of them o-lve enough light to make it pos- sSble to read by the aid of a single speci men. The luminosity frequently seen in autumn in the forests on dead leaves or on bits of wood is due to fungi. The yellow flowers of the nasturtium emit a small amount of light. But in the an imal kingdom the tcrchbearers assume an immerse variety cf forms, the min ute organisms thai are responsible for much of the oceasi's phosphorescence to the deep-sea liahes that curry lamps of their own and form endless torch light processions through the other wise black and gloomy marine abysses. Many jelly fishes' are luminous, and so are some of the star fishes. A few earthworms are light-givers and num errms crustaceans have a luminosity of their own. One kind of shrimp has a brilliant, circle surrounding the eye, which is really a luminous socket. A European species of "thousand legs" emits light in autumn- But no animals' are better light-givers than certain in sects, and even the eggs of-ome of these are luminous. From generation to c-eneration the light-bearing crea tures transmit the torch that is never J extinguished, and which seems to have been lighted at the very dawn of crea tion.
