New York, J uiy rWhen tli.e
fon r comrtsssnf it; who are in veetii
gatinr the emigration affairs of the
country, assembled to-day, Paul
Wolff, the Washington correspond
ent of the Mew York taats
Zeitnng took tbe witness stand and
stated that some years ago be was
informed that there were several
societies in German', and espe
cially in Bavaria, formed for the
purposo ot sending discharged
criminals to this country. The
witness laid his information before
Assistant Secretary of .State Porter
and Hut gentleman wrote to the
American consul at Munich on the
subject, who replied in December,
1SS5, that there were no such
societies. The witness then read
extracts from the reports of one of
these societies, showing that in
18S3 twenty-seven discharged
convicts were sent to this country
by the societies. The report said
that the worse the men and the
larger families they have the
belter they are to send to America.
The witness said the societies are
not government affairs, but the
royal counsellor Bauer is president
and prince regent Luitpold is an
honorary president of one society.
In 18S(iHhe report is more cautious
ly worded, but shows that out of
15,000 marks expended nearly half
was used to assist emigrants to
come to America. At this point
Mayor Hewitt interrupted the
proceedings to shake hands with
the members ot the committee and
urged upon them an invitation to
spend Sunday night with him at
his countrv seat. When he left the
examination proceeded.

; THE PE0PL.'g PALACE
Work on t be Creat Strnrtaie Kearlj
l i - Completed. . .v'
North 'American Review. -
On the 14th of May, 18S7, the
newly built central hall of the Peo
ple's Palace; in East London, was
opened by the Qneen ij the midsl; of
an - immense ' concourse ' of people.
The opening of the hall was. in fact,
the opening of the People's Palace
itself, because; with the aid of tem
porary buildings and sheds, the scheme
of the trustees was immediately com
menced, and has been carried on com
plete in nearly all its parts, though
fettered as yet for want of room.
The palace, as it stands at present,
coiisists'only of' the temporar'y-'shtds
and the central hall. Externally the
hall is hideous ; but then it is the
core of the whole palace, and its ex
terior will be invisiole when the
whole is buiit. This hall, which is
capable of holding 6000 people at a
pinch, is well proportioned and lotty ;
at oue end stands an orgau and a
platform for the use of the singers
and performers at concerts ; a spa
cious galleiy is buut on either side ; a
statue of the queeu stacds over the
entrance ; the sides are adorned with
statues of queens and princesses of
Great Britain and Ireland ; uuder the
gallery are temporary bookshelves,
for at present the hall is the library,
and the body ot the room is provided
with tables and seats for readers and
hundreds of papers from all parts of
the world. At the upper end under
the platform is the table where the
librarians two ladies sit to advise
the readers, to receive and give out
the books. The place is always well
filled. On Sundays especially, when
the librarian's work is done by vol
unteers, it is crammed with orderly
and quiet readers, who find here a
place for rest and reading. The open
ing of the place on Sunday, although
fiercely resisted by local bigots, has
proved an unmixed blessing and boon
to the people.
At the back of the hill the library
is rapidly rising. It is an octagonal
domed room, with book accommoda
tion for 250,000 volumes. A present
the library contains no more than
8000 volumes, but it is rapidly grow
ing. The ante-rooms of the library
will be given over entirely for the
use of the girls who form the "lviy
members." They will then have all
to themselves, uuder the government
of their own committee, their own
music-room, tea-room, reading and
writing-room and conversation-room.
At the back of the library stands a
long, two-storied building. This was
formerly the doromitory of. thfe school
and alms-bouses which ased tq occupy
the site. Fortunately this blick was
oot pulled down, anu it is now, pend
ing the completion of the building,
used for class-rooms.
The other buildings are a long cor
rugated iron structure used for the ex
hibitions, an iron-building, which con
tains a gymnasium perfectly fitted up
with all the modern appliances, a billiard-room
furnit-hed with half a
dozen billiard and bagatelle tables in
it, and a reireslniient-room. inere
are also the secretarial offices, a small
ladies' room" fitted up for the girls,
and the Palace Joarnal office.
When the whole building is com
pleted these temporary buildings will
disappear. The palace will contain
in itself every! hing, namely : Social
rooms, club-rooms, billiard-rooms, lecture-rooms,
reading-rooms, apart from
the Queen's hall ; class-rooms capable
of accommodating an immense num
ber of students : chemical and physi
cal labratoiies, and all the machiniry
of a great technical college and palace
of debght.
The Sort of a Woman to nave.
Rosebuxg Review.
Mrs. Sol Abraham went on a visit
to Glendale last week. While there
the cook for the mill bands (about 40
in all) was taken sick, and no one
else being available to do the cooking,
one of two things had to be dot e,
either the mill had to be shut down,
or Mrs. Abraham had to take charge
of and manage the culinary department-
This she was competent to,
and, doffing her visiting attire, don
ned a Bridgets dress with white apron
rolled up her sleeyes, and as an Ore
gonian would, say, "pitched in" and
furnished their meat in due season,
(bread, vegetables, coffee, etc., thrown
in) and so the mill runs on full time.
Wherei we ask, is the woman of Mrs.
Abraham's wealth and social 'stand
ing and at her age that would soil
her . hande to prevent a loss in her
husband's business, even, nsder such
circustsnces. But Mrs. A. is equal
to every emergency. She can grace
the parlor, fill the president's chair or
cook for a logging camp. She's the
sort of a woman - to have. Solomon
made a wise choice.
An Ancient Volcano.
Baker City Reveille.
In the Pocahontas range oi
mountains west of this city, there
is a peak, which from appearances
was seme day either a volcano or
that its neculiar shape is due to
volcanic raptions. Its top is the
same fehape of Mount Hood, sever
al times parties claim that smoke
was seen issuing from it. A parcy
is being ojganized to thoroughly
examine and explore the mountain
within the next week.
Another Strike.
Baker City Reveille:
Some strangers, who have been
prospecting for quartz in ths bald
hills east of town, have struck a
large body of free-milling go'd ore
just across Powder river from the
town of Haines. Samples of ers
have been crushed in a moctor and
prove very rich. An arastra will be
erected at onee ; the work of taking
out the gold will commence shortly.
There is a large body of good ore east
of the city which will yet be uncovered!

The cooling effect of ice is actually
dependent upon its melting, as in this
process the heat which causes it to
melt is absorbed from the surround
ing bodies. A pound of ice. in melt
ing, will absorb sufficient heat to cool
a pound of water from 174 F. to the
freezing point, or to cool 142 pounds
of water one degree. The heating
power of steam is due to the converse
of this principal. A pound ef water
converted into steam and passed into
a radiator will,; upon condensing, give
out enough heat to raise one pound of
water, or about 4.2 pounds of air,
from 32" to 1,004.
