FKOM WASHINGTON.
The World's Fair Question t be
Decided at Once.
Washington, Jan 21. The spe
cial committee on the world's fair
had their first meeting this morn
ing. Mr. Springer called up a res
olution providing that the. house
proceed next Thursday to select
a site for the fair by ballot and was
discussed for an hour. . Mr.
Springer urged the importance of
a speedy action on the proposition
He held that by its action on the
Cannon resolution last week, the
house had virtually decided that
the matter must be settled as early
as possible, and that the committee
was practically under, instructions
a- d was as much bound by them
as if they had been formulated
lie argued that the house could
not move in the matter until it had
first settled where the fair was to
be I eld. Jtfr. Hill also declared in
favor of the immediate selection of
a site by the house and pointed out
how the delay jeopardizes the
chances of the lair.
Mr. Flower thought" the date
fixed for balloting in the Springer
resolution, Thursday next, was a
little too soon. He suggested that
a resolution be reported, provid
ing for a debate in the house next
Monday, one hour and a half to be
allowed for the presentation of tht
claims of each city, to be followeu
dv balloting luesday.
Mr. Frank, of Missouri, offered
a resolution that the Springer res
olution, providing for balloting b)
the house next Thursday be car
ried to a sub-committee of three,
with instruction to report at tht
next committee meeting. 'After
much debate it was adopted and
sub-committee was selected as

larger foreign firms on the street,
while they declare tliat ttiey uaa

rumored action of the bank of

by no means unlikely. On the

FAITHFUL TO HIS MASTER.
The Long Journeys Made
Convict's Dog.
b.T
Chicavo Hera'd.
Dog stories differ from fish stories
in that they, are sometimes true.
The following is the authentic ac
count ot a dag that suoweo in a
great degree both the wooderlul
sagncitv and endurance frequently
exhibited by canines: Some years
ago Fred Whitwill was captured,
tried and convicted of robbing
tiain on the St. Louis and San
Francisco Railroad. He lived in
LeaveDwirth and had for a partn
Bill Curoming?, one ot the old
Jesse James gog. Afttr tbe ex
rtrcss robbery spoken of Whitwill
made good his escape aud for a long
time eluded the detectives who were
on his track. lie came to Chicago
and under an assumed name opened
i coal office on West Lake street.
He was hoarding Bt the bouse of
Mrs. Carrie White, 753 North Wells
street, and bis room-mate and com
panion was a dog. He was not
a very pretty dog. but he was faith
ful. Bath Whitwill and his dog
became great favorites with the
lanuladv, and after later usplcosaot
developmcL's tbe dog was taken
care of by Mrs. White. The an
imal, while Whitwill was in busi
ness, seemed to receguize that his
master was in danger, but at tbe
same time be bad tbe sagacity to
distinguish a customer from any
one who merely caaie in to talk cr
e.'en ask questions. Te the former
he would pay no attention whatever,
but to tbe ethers be would show
his teeth and growl vicieusly. The
detectives at last ran dewn their
man, and one celd Thanksgiving
Day Mr. Whitwill was arrested.
The dog was present when the csp
tore waa made, and, theugb be
showed plenty of fight, he was
silenced and his master was taken
fc St; Louis fdr trial. Tbe dog
followed and hung about the jail
and courtroom during the long pro
oeediogs which resulted in Whit
will getting twenty years at Jeffer
fioirCaty. Bate, t the, fatf hfhl
brute toJlewed and tor days was to
be seen just eutoide the walla of the
gloomy prison. . Suddenly he dis
appeared and soon shewed up at bis
eld home on Wells street. Mrs".
White was glad to have Bias back,
and in a few days he apparently be
came satisfied te stay and enjey a
comfortable borne. "On the next
Thanksgiving Day, hewevsr, he was
missing. He remained away a long
timt, but be came back looking as
if he had been having a bard time.
Tnenext year, on Thaaksgivisg
Uaf. be asrain disaDDeared and was
absent about a meutb, coming back
looking as tough 'as Before. Some
thing led Mrs. White to suspect
where the dog went on there long
trips, and making inquiries she
found her surmise was correct.
The dog bad been all the way to
Jefferson City and back, probably
in the hope that his master's: term
was aver, me curious part ot tbe
case is that the dog seems to fully
realize the flight of time, and be
seems te think his master'e confine
ment will end at the expiration of
some year beginning at Thanks
giving .. time, He will probably
never see his master again, for he
was gene much lenger tbe last time
be went away, and his return was
followed by great prostration. Old
age is telling oa bim and be grows
weaker and weaker every month.
In relatiog the story. Mrs. White
said she much feared one more trip
would use him up. The faithful
ness displayed by the dog is not by
anv means unusual, but tbe appar
cut knowledge ef the passage of
time is,to say the least, remarkable.

GLOOMY DAYS IN NEVADA.
Deep Snow en the Ranges, and Half
the Stock Will Perish.
Austin, Nev., Jan. 20. Over five
feet of snow has fallen since Decem
ber 1. The outlook for stock is not
encouraging. Snow lies on the
ground three feet deep, and is piled
in the canyons. One rancber has lost
4000 sheep. The Nevada Central
railroad has been fighting snow two
weeks. It took eight days to get a
train through, and they are haying a
serious time now to get through.
San Francisco papers, dated January
4 have just been received. The
town is cut off from outside communi
cation except by telegraph. Wood is
scarce in town, and two mines have
shut down because of it.
Ranchers feel despondent, as half
their stock will perish, beveral old
houses have caved in from the weight
of snow.
IMPORTANT IF TRIE.
Large Amount of Bogus Money
Coined in Mexico.
New York, Jan. 20. It is reported
that a creat counterfeiting scheme
has been discovered, and that five
million bocus United States silver
dollars have been coined and issued
in Mexico in the last two years. The
fact was discovered by the remarkable
amount of American silver in circula
tion near he Mexican border. The
profit in the scheme consists in issuing
at the rate of one hundred cents for
one dollar coins which cost only
seventy-two cents. The Sun, which
elves credence tothe story, this even
iug says the dollars are full weight
and the die fnni whicn tney are
made are perfect. .

VAsniNT0v, Jan. 20. Secretary

because the government has all it
wants at pteser.t, and the available
surplus haa been reduced to about
$20,000,000.
SOAKED WITH GORE.
Terrible Fight of Polanders in a
Pennsvlrania Cemetery.
Wilkesbarre, Pa., Jan. 20. A
bloodv riot took o'.ace between
warring factions of aPolish chutch
at Plymouth this evening. One
faction endeavored to bury one of
their members ih tbe cemetery.
and the others resisted aud a fierce
battle took place in wbicb pistols,
stones and clubs were used. Dur
ing tbe shooting thirty men were
prostrated by weunds, and tbe
ground near tbe grave was covered
wtrie blood.
The coffin was upset and tbe
body rolled out. The Polanders
were finally rauted by a posse of
constables snd citizens. Anthony
Floas and Joseph Hewick were
fatally injured. The ring-leaders
of tbe riot were arrested and tbe
body finally interred.
OVERCROWDED GRAVEYARDS
The Condition of England's Ceme
terlea a Cause of Alarm.
Under tbe ominous heading of
"overcrowded cemeteries,' the
Duke of Westminster writes to the
London Lancet urging tbe necessity
of fresh legislation to correct the
tnanya liss which exist in our
present uiod of burial. - His grace
repeats jwbat has been frequently
no tic d in thess; column?, says the
Lancet, that the large number of
bodies interred in the metropolitan
cemeteries 100,090 io twelve acres
at tbe Bromten, a quarter of million
iu the seventeen acres of tbe tower
hamlets would be no cause for
alarm were they properly buried.
An indefinitely greater number
could, be remarks, be buried with
barm to none if the mode of burial
were in accordance witb the sani
tary law. How thoroughly true
this is may beproyed by the follow
ing simple calculation : In suitable
soil 1900 graves can be . made in
each acre without any overcrowd
ing, it eacn ooay is uuned in a
perishable coffin and in tbe earth,
tbe resolution of the body is effect
ed in a lew years, and another
burial can take place without in anv
way diminishing the capacity of
the grave for more intcrrr-ents
Io oth'jr word.-, graves 'and grave-
plots can be made capable of hold
ing an almost unlimited number of
bodies, while vaults, catacombs
and bricked graves csu ouly hold
a very limited number. If tbe
metropolitan cemeteries had from
the first been managed as burial
grounds in tbe strict 6ense ot tbe
word, tbey would now be in tbe
same position as many of our older
churchyards boldiog the dust of
ages past still baying room ior more
Burial retorm is not a luing u
y?Merday. More than two centur
iesago Sir Ci.ristopher Wren
strongly denounced tbe practlco o(
the vaults 'of
churcbef. and advocated suburban
burial grounds. . And in the miaaie
of last century the mortal remains
of the Bishop : Wilson were,- in.
accordance suu ma cjicssw
bnried in the churchyard of Kirk
Michael and not under the church
he wishing to et a eood example.
and cot to sanction so dangerous
a Practice. And vet 'n the Lancet
of list week thero was a notice of
an application for power to bury a
hod t in a vault beneath the parish
church ef Bebington wbicb has a
large congregation at us ounaay
And though the memory
of good Bishop Wilson still remains
in the island et wmcu ne was ior
mAiA hn fiff w Tears bishon. his
uiv. .. ..a -J g-w
good example was not followed,
several of tbe Manx cnurcnes oay
ing large number of dead in tbe
vaults beneath them. Much has
been dene by individuals, collect
ively and individually, to set a good
example in these days, and by no
ne more than tbe Duke of West
minster.- It is well known that tbe
burial of his late lamented son,
Earl Grosvenor, was a model of
simplicity io all its details, and be
still continuesjthe energetic-president
of the Church of England
Rnriftl Tipfnrm Association, wliose
indefatigable tecretary, the Rev. F.
Lawrence, nas done so inucn o
make burial reform popular wiih
all classes. But much remains to
be done. Buril under churches
ought to be absolutely forbidden,
tbe soil of the public cemetery
should be tor the use of all the
parishiouers,and not partitioned off
by walls into vaults or bricked
graves. No coffins exept those ot a
perishable kind should be allowed.
These reforms will, iti t be feared
need legislation for their general
adoption.
FAMOUS BEAUTIES.
Spanish Girls Who Are Admired for
Fine Forms and Small Feet. .
Henry T. Finck, in Scribner
A 4 regards her stature aud mold,
an Andalusian girl is Almost invaria
bly a petite brunette;and although iiot
all arc plump, and many are too
stout, the majority have exquisitely
symmetrical tapering limbs, well de
veloped busts (flat-chested women are
almost unknown in Spain), and the
most dainty and refined hands aud
feet. Regarding these feet Gautier
makes the most astounding assertion,,
that "without anj poetic exaggeration;
it would be easy here in Seville to
find women whose feet an intuit
might hold in its hands. A Frei.ch
girl of seven or eight years could not
wear the shoes of an Andalusian of
twenty." I am glad to attest that if
the feet of Sc vidian women were so
monstrously small fifty years ao,
they are so no longer? It is dis
couraging to see a man like Gamier
fall into tbe vaigar error ot fancying
that, because a small foot is a thin
of beauty, therefore the smaller the
foot the more beaotitnl it must be.
Beanty of feet, bands and waist is
a matter of proportion, not of absolute
sizi, and too small feet, baada ard
wrists are not beautiful, but ug y.
We micht as well argue that sine a
man's toot ought to be larger thai, a
woman s therefore the larger his f- t
the more he haa of manly beauty. If
the Andalusian women really had feet
ao small thai a baby might bold th- .u
in its hands, they would not be a o
to walk at all, or, at least, not gra
fully. But it is precisely their gra.
ful gait and carriage for which th y
are most famed and admired.
