HIS RELIGIOUS CONVICTIONS. How Randall Once Silenced a Discus- sion in His Committee Room. Though Mr. Randall never made any display of his piety, and his formal connection with the church dates back only a few weeks, his closer friends know him to have possesced a deeply religious sentiment and his conversion Gates several years back. At least two years ago @ Stag reporter was in his committee room conversing with three or four members of Con- Brese who were seated by the table. Mr. Ran- dall was at the head of the long committee table busily engaged with his correspondence. His work seemed to absorb all his attention and he appeared to take no notice of the con- Versation that was going on within his hear- ing. The conversation took philosophical turn and finally launched off into a discussion of the Bible and Christianity, the tone of the discussion being decidedly skeptical There was s strong atheistical sentiment in nearly everything that was said. The discussion con- tinged for some little while without appearing to interest the great Pennsylvanian, who still leaned u: ork, reading letters and writ- ing replies im bis usual energetic manner. Di- rectly be got up, pushed his letters aside and Bt at the corner of the table with that set expression of determmation and positiveness upon his face which has so often been re- marked upon the floor of the House. “Gen- tlemen,” he said, “Christianity is truth, man 0 doubts distrusts his own intelli- gence.” This was said in his most solemn and impressive manner and at once silenced the discussion. A moment later he left the room, TO REORGANIZE U. S. COURTS. The Bill Passes the House of Represen- tatives. Yesterday in the House, after Tue Sran’s Feport closed, the bill todefine and regulate the jurisdiction of the courts of the United tates was passed—yeas 131. nays 13—the Bpeaker counting a quorum. Before the vote was taken Mr. Mills offered an amendment pro- Viding that of the additional circuit judges (seventeen in number) one-half shall be ap- pointed from each of the political parties, Lost—yeas 69, nays 119. The bill withdraws all original jurisdictfon how vested in the circuit courts of the United Btates and vests the same exclusively in the district courts of the United States, and also provides that the circuit courts of the United Htates shall exercise such jurisdiction by writ of error and appeal as they have and exercise SHOOTING STARS.

Mr. Al Daggett’s Trouble With Wilkin- son Bros. & Co., the Paper Makers. Press dispatches from New Haven, Conn., State that Wilkinson Bros. & Co., the paper manufacturers at Birmingham, Conn., had at- tached the postal card works at Shelton, near that place, on a claim of 40,000. The Post Office Department was informed late yesterday that an attachment had been is- sued against the works, and then a later dis- patch was received, stating that the attachment had been removed. THE POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT HAS NOTHING TO Do WITH IT. At the Post Office Department it is said they have nothing to do with any claim by the paper makers who furnish the paper on which the postal cards are printed. The contract by the department is made with Mr. Al. Daggett, and covers a period of four years, Under the terms of the contract Mr. Daggett is to furnish on an average about 400,000,000 postal cards each year at the rate of 35 cents per 1,000. The paper is to be of a certain quality. Mr. Dag- gett made arrangements with the Wilkinson Company to supply the paper, and the work was begun about the Ist of December last. Owing to complaints received in regard to the quality of the paper early in March, the de- partment refused to accept any more cards, and a large number were condemned, At that time a little over 60,000,000 of cards had been furnished. When the paper used was rejected by the department Mr. Daggett, the contractor, made arrangements with the Russell Paper Company of Lawrence, Mass. The paper furnished by that company was acceptable to the depart- ment, and about forty million cards have been furnished. There is no objection to these cards at the department, and any difficulty that may exist between Mr. Daggett and his paper con- tractors is a personal affair in which the de- partment has no concern as long as the supply of pos al cards continues to be of a satisfactory character. Postmaster General Wanamaker has instructed the department agent at the paper works to send full details of the affair. CAPITOL GLEANINGS. Proposed Compromise of the Silver Question—Committee Notes, Etc. A joint meeting of the Senate and House re- publican caucus committees was held today to discuss the silver question and endeavor to effect some compromise measure that would pass both houses and meet the approval of the President, The Senate committee urged the adoption of the Senate silver bill, while most of the members of the House committee fa- vored the House bill as being more conserva- tive. The conservative members of the House committee, when the disputed question con- cerning the redemption of bullion certificates was brought forward, proposed that the House bill be amended by providing that the bullion certificates shall be redeemable in lawful money or jn coin, at the option of the Secre- tary of the Treasury. This the ultra silver men strenuously opposed, on the ground that the Secretary was given too much power by its provision. No agreement on this point was reached, but there was a disposition on the part of the conservatives to accept the propo- sition of the silver men that the Secr@tary should redeem the bullion in lawful money only. It was agreed to leave the preparation of a com- promise measure to subcommittees of the Sen- ate and House committees and the conference adjourned. Messrs. Aldrich, Allison, Sherman, Jones and Teller were appointed the subcom- mittee on the part of the Senate and Messrs, Conger, McKinley, Bayne, McKenna and Bai tine on the part of the House. The subcom- mittee held a meeting yesterday afternoon and after a long conference succeeded in practically harmonizing the main point of disagreement, and it is expected that atthe meeting which will be held today an agreement will be reached on the redemption features of the bill which will permit builion certificates to be redeemed in lawfal money. The amount of coinage per month will probably be $4,500,000, PERMISSION TO WEAR BADGES, The House committee on military affairs has ordered a favorable report on # Senate resolu- tion granting permission to officers and enlisted men of the army and navy to wear badges adopted by military societies of the wars of the United States. TO EXEMPT VETERANS FROM EXAMINATION. A bill was introduced in the House yesterday by Mr. DeLano (N.Y.) exempting veterans who are in the classified civil service of the United States and who have been honorably dis- charged from the military or naval service from compulsory examination for promotion, except such examination as may be —— by the appointing power to test their fitness for such promotion, MINORITY REPORT ON THE SERVICE PENSION BILL. Representative Martin of Indiana yesterday, on behalf of the minority of the committee on invalid pensions, submitted a report on the Morrill service pension bill. The report criti- cises the age qualifications of the bill as being neither responsive to public demand nor in under existing laws. The circuit court is made au appellate court exclusively, except that it has the power to issue all remedial process, The cireuit courts shall consist of the pres- eut circuit judge and two others to be ap- pointed in each circuit by tho President, by aad with the advice and consent of the Senate. The Pan-Americaa Conference. The Pan-American conference yesterday adopted the report of the committee on arbi- tration. Chili did not vote and Mexico voted in the affirmative, with a reservation as to cer- tain articles of the proposed basis of treaties, ‘The objectionable articles were not specified. ‘Tbe report of the committee on extradition was also ted. The conference adjourned til this noon, when it is expected the figal session will be held. If the weather is fine tomorrow the delegates wil be taken to Mount Vernon on the U.5.5. Despatch, compliance with the requests of the veterans. It seems, says the report, that the bill is simply the outgrowth of some real or soepenes neces- sity to give what is not asked by the survivors of the war, instead of granting them what they have asked for aud expect. The minority urges that the bill be amended to conform to the popular wishes of the Union veterans; that the age qualification be eliminated and the limit of service be made not to exceed sixty days. The Good Templars. The officers of the Grand Lodge of Good Templars made their semi-annual visit to Monumental lodge last evening and were re- ceived with a hearty welcome.

Thrilling Experiences of a Voyage Down the Colorado. FIVR HUNDRED MILES THROUGH FLOOD AXD RAPID, WONDERFUL GORGES AND FRIGHTFUL EDDIES—NOTES OF THE JOURNEY MADE BY THE DENVER EXPEDITION, Col. Robert Stanton, commander of the Den- ver expedition now exploring the comparatively unknown regions, traversed by the Colorado river, has written to the Denver Republican a graphic account of the perilous journey down the wild stream from the head of the Granite gorge of the Grand canyon to the mouth of Diamond creek, to accomplish which required the time from January 24 to March 1. The ex- pedition had to battle upon entering the Gran- ite gorge with mighty cataracts and foaming torrents, sometimes letting their boats down with ropes and at times portaging all the eon- tents of the boats around rapids, Two of the boats were dashed against rocks and wrecked. Progress was extremely slow. At one point they were delayed five days while one of the wrecked boats was being reconstructed. Of that portion of the Granite gorge from its head to Bright Angel creek Col. Stanton quotes from his note book, under date of February 7: “The canyon is growing more and more pic- turesque and beautiful the further we proceed. The Granite has lost its awful and threatening look and slopes back in beautiful hillsides of variegated black, gray and green. Above this, next to the river, is a stratum of dark sand- stone cut into sharp horizontal layers, standing in an almost perpendicular wall, jutting out in places to the edge of, the granite and studded all out in the a over with points standing darker in color than those behind them and the top edge cut into smaller points and crevices through which the light shines, giving a rough, beaded appearance. VIEWS IN THE GORGE. “At the side canyons and from the bends of the river the upper portions of the whole gorge are brought into view, showing the great mar- ble and sandstone cliffs benched back far away from the river, while small mountains jut in close between the side canyons and wash nearly a mile anda quarter in height. As we il along the smooth stretches between the rapids each turn brings some wonderful picture more beautiful than the last. As we look down the river or up a low side canyon, with the placid water between its polished walls of black and gray and green for a foreground, there rises above the dark sandstone tier upon tier, bench upon bench, terrace upon terrace, step- ping back further and further and higher and igher, and in .heir immensity of height and proportions seeming to tower almost over our heads. First above the darker sandstone comes the flattened slopes of the line and mineralized matter in horizontal layers of yellow, brown, white, red and green, “Then rise sheer walls of stained marble 1,000 feet or more, the lower portions yellow, brown and red,and the coloring of red growing brighter as it nears the top. Above thi smaller benches of marble, at the top of each a little mesa covered with green grass and brushes, and above these a dozen or more terraces of scarlet and flame-colored sandstone, stained on their outer points with black, and the little benches between them relieved by the bright green of the greasewood and bunch grass, the whole covered with, perhaps, a couple of thou- sand feet of the lighter gray, yellow and white sandstone ledges, capped by pinacles and spires, turrets and domes in every imagina- bie shape, size and proportion, with all their slopes covered and their tops fringed with pine cedar and pinion trees, whose bright green stands out in bold relief against the flaming colors of the sandstone and the banks of pure white snow that covers the top and have run down into the many gulches along the sides,” A CHANGE IN THE SCENE. Further on he writes: “From the southern portion of Powell’s plateau to the mouth of the Kanab Wash the canyon assumes an en- tirely newform. The granite, except in a few patches. has sunk under the river and the softer strata of sand and lime stones which formed the great slopes above the granite have come down next to the river and rise from the water's edge in great talus slopes of from 300 to 600 feet high ata general angle of 40 de- grees from vertical, The high cliffs of marble and red sandstone bench back from the top of these slopes, Although these outer peaks and cliffs have drawn in close upon the river the canyon itself—that is the inner gorge—is much wider than above, the width being measured between the tops of the great talus slopes. The river is broader and it sweeps in gentle curves at the foot of the talus, which is covered with bushes, bunch grass and large mesquite groves. On many of the long stretches where the river can be seen for several miles the picture is one of grandeur and beauty. Grand with its walls of bright colors towering 2,500 feet overhead, beautiful in its long swing green slopes, with the quiet waters sparkling in the sun at their foot, for the rapids are much less frequent and stretches of still water are growing longer and longer. “From the mouth of the Kanab Wash for about twenty miles down is perhaps the nar- rowest and deepest part of the great inner gorge. The lovely sandstono and limestone ledges have sunken under the river, and the marble and upper sandstones come close into the water. At the bottom the gorge is from 150 to 200 feet wide aad the river runs between vertical walls—vertical, however, for only about 80 feet up—and fills the whole space from wall to wall. The wall of this portion of the can- yon—(and it comes nearer being a true canyon than any other part of the river) rise above the water 3,000 feet, and they are almost vertical, the benches are narrower and the vertical cliffs between the benches higher than in any other section And yet, strange to relate, from one end of this section to the other there is a bench, about 50 feet above high water, running almost parallel with the grade of the river, of solid marble wide enough to build a four-track railroad upon and not interfere with the per- pendicular walls above or the river below, IN FLOOD AND RAPID. “The night before we reached Kanab the river rose four feet; it continued torise for two days and two nights. How much the rise was I am not absolutely certain, but believe from good evidence it was fully'ten feet, Just be- low Kanab Wash there is a rapid one and one- half miles long. On Tuesday morning we started down this rapid. We made this mile anda half in just four and one-half minutes, We then had for some time few rapids, but a rushing, singing current, forming eddies, whirlpools and back currents fearful to con- template, much more to ride upon, “About 2:30 p.m. we heard a deep, loud roar and saw the breakers ahead in white foam. With a great effort we stopped upona pile of broken rocks that had rolled into the river, Much to our surprise when we went to look the whole terrible rapid that we had expected tosee had disappeared and only « rushing current in its stead. While we stood wonder- ing there rose right at our feet those same great waves, 12 to 14 feet in height and 100 to 150 feet long across the river, rolling down stream like; great sea waves and breaking in white foam with a terrible noise. We watched and wondered and at last concluded this was the fore front of a great body of waterrolling down this narrow trough from some great cioudburst above. Believing that discretion was the better part of valor, we camped right there on that pile of rocks, fearing that although our boats would ride these waves in safety, we might be caught in one of these rolls just at the head of a rapid, and, unable to stop, be carried over the rapid with the additional force of these rushing breakers, “The next morning,to our surprise,we found the flood had begun to recede. After an early breakfast we started on what afterwards proved to be the wildest, most daring and exciting ride we have had on the river. The canon so narrow, the turns quick and sharp, the current rushing first on one side and then on the other, forming whirlpools, eddies and chutes, our boats caught first in one and then in the other, now spun around like leaves in the wind, then shot far to the right or left almost against the wall, now caught by a mighty roll and first carried to the top of the great waves and then dropped into the “trough of the with a force almost sufficient to take away one’s breath, many times narrowly escaping being carried over the rapids before we could exam- ine them, making exciting and sudden land- ings by pulling close to shore and with bow up stream rowing hard to partially check our speed, while one man jumps witha line toa little ledge of rocks and hoids on for his life and ours too, A STRUGGLE FOR LIFE. “At last the expected combination comes, We rounds sharp turn and see a roaring, foaming rapid below and as we come in full view of it we are caught in a mighty roll of flood waves, We try to pull ont to an eddy—it is all in vain; we cannot cross such a current. We must go down over the rapid. In trying to pull out we got our boats bap haioe Byfgd the current, over the rollers and thro breakers. up to the head of the rapid. this position they travel a course, first in the air and then in the water, only to be compared to the spirals of acorkscrew. When we find we must go over the rapid with great effort we straighten them round and enter in good shape, bow on. It laste but a moment, the cross current us and we are turned, go broadside down over the worst t of id (which proves clear of rocks), then, turue: and twisted avout, we go through the rest of the fall in wild, wizard waltz, to music more weird than that So ee .

May they, the Bonnie Jean and Lillie, live long enough to float on more peaceful waters than those of the Colorado river, over whose rush- ing torrents they have glided now near 500 miles and never once been upset. And be to the ashes (I should say splints) the ee we left in the dark canyon ve.” ——_——-¢ee________ DEDICATED TO MUSCLE. The Handsome New Quarters of the Columbia Athletic Club. THE BUILDING TO BE OPENED ON THE 24TH—A FINELY FITTED UP HOUSE—RECEPTION ROOMS, SWIMMING POOL, OAFE, BILLIARD BOOM ANd GYMNASIUM, The new home of the Columbia Athletic Club, on G street between 17th and 18th, is fast nearing completion. The club will take formal Possession, it is expected, on the 24th. Prepa- rations have been made for furnishing and decorating the house for that occasion. Yes- terday @ reporter of Tae Star visited the building in company with the architect, Mr. J. West Wagner, On entering the vestibule the large carved oaken doors, with their beveled-glass fronte, Produce an effect of substantial eloquence. To the right is the clerk’s office, provided with a counter and a brass grill separating the office Proper from the main hall, Here the business of the club house is transacted. Looking to the left one sees the large room fitted up as THE BOWLING ALLEY. Experts say it is oue of the finest in the coun- try. There are four alleys of the regulation size and provided with all necessary appur- tenances. In front of the main hall and adja- cent to the bowling alley is a lavatory and toilet room for the use of the players, On the west of the bowling alley is the main central hall, which leads to the Turkish bath and swimming pool. The latter occupies the entire rear of the building. The pool ranges in depth from 4 to 9 feet, and has a width of 2@ feet and a length of 50 feet. It is lined all through with white enamel brick and the walls and copings of the room are of Italian marble. One of the features of the pool is the shower baths, which are located at each end of the platform. The water will be kept at a uniform temperature winter and summer and will be continually changing. The supply passes through a large filter, iusuring pure, clean water all the time. THE BATHS, In front of and adjacent to the swimming pool are the rooms devoted to the Turkish and Russian baths, No pains bas been spared to make this feature of the club as near perfec- tion as possible, The hot and steam rooms are arranged around a circular dome-shaped room to be utilized asa shampoo or treatment room. ‘The temperatures of these rooms 1s to be suited to their several purposes, On this floor also, between the clerk's office in front and the Turkish baths already described,is situated the room devoted to the heating, ventilating and lighting machinery of the house, THE RECEPTION ROOM, Up one flight of massive oaken stairs, cov- ered with warm tinted Wilton carpet, the visitor comes to the main hall of the first fluor. The hall is beautiful in design and provided with large open fire places, which lends a home-like appearance to things. In front of the landing is the stranger's reception room, The room is tastefully furnished in quartered oak furniture, with light blue and terra cotta trimmings, while the prevailing tints of the walls are gold and cream. Massive plush portieres, with thread lace draperies, hang gracefuily from the doors and windows, giving a subdued yellow sunlight tint to the interior. On the west side and oceupying nearly the entire space of this floor, are the public reception rooms and library, Special attention has been given these rooms, looking to the convenience and com- fort of the members. The reception room is furnished with divans and easy chairs, while convenient tables and cabinets are on all sides. The furniture is of mahogany, upholstered with silk plush and tapestry, and the walls and ceil- ing tinted to match the prevailing tones. There are no doors in the openings of this room, the spaces being filled by richly colored portieres, THE LIBRARY. In the rear of these two reception rooms is a large and comfortable library provided with commodious book cases of elegant design and furnished with many comfortable sofas and arm chairs, conducive to the comfortable parasal of the books and magazines of the club, Phe carpet, furniture and tnted walls are ali in blissful harmony. Leading from the low French windows of this entire suite of rooms some 80 feet in length is a wide and well-shaded veranda overlooking the private tennis grounds of the club. Here on warm evenings the club members may witness the games in comfort. On the eastern side of this floor and in the rear of the stranger's reception room come first the board of governors’ room, fitted and furnished for their comfort and convenience. Then the hat and coat room, arranged for the speedy storage and delivery of members’ apparel. Ad- jacent fo this room is a large locker and dress- ing room, provided with upward of 400 lockers conveniently arranged. Near by is a large bath and toilet room provided with the latest sani- tary arrangements, A broad stairway leads from this floor to the swimming poo! and Turk- ish baths. On this floor are also iocated the rooms devoted to the storage of goods for the use of the club. A roomy hall in the rear of the library forms the passage from the first door veranda tothe rear stairway ascending from this floor to the top of the building. This is for the use of the families of members on ladies’ and children’s days. THE CAFE AND BILLIARD ROOMS. ‘The second floor is devoted almost exclusively to the cafe, billiard and locker rooms, The billiard room is one of the most complete and best appointed in the country and the knights of the cue have a great chance to distinguisn themselves here, special attention having been paid to the comfort of pares and spectators alike, giving each ample room either to play orto lookon. The tables are all new and of the best and latest make. They were specially designed for the club, together with the cucs and cue racks, The room has been} carpeted throughout and all provision made to deaden sound, In the cafe everything is bright and pretty. ‘The walls are frescoed and tinted in artistic designs and the furniture specially adapted for ease and comfort of its patrons, On this floor is another set of locker and bath rooms corresponding with those on the floor below, but being more convenient and accessi- ble to'the gymnasium floor above. THE GYMNASIUM. The fourth floor is given up entirely to the gymnasium and it is the only room in the build- ing that can be said to be completed at the present time. The room is 92 feet long with a width of 55 feet, and a feature of it is that it is entirely free from obstructions, There are no supporting posts whatever. This is said to be the finest gymnasium room in the country. ‘The apparatus comprises horizontal bars, trap- eze, traveling rings, dumb bells and Indian clubs of all sizes and weights, striking ba; hand, wrist, finger, head, foot and shoul weights, acrial ladders, in fact everything an athiete could wish for. A circular gallery ex- tends around the room, on which is laid a felt running track. At the rear of the gymnasium are two rooms to be used for boxing and fenc- ing. The kitchen is on the fifth floor and is connected with the cafe byadumb waiter. The trainer's room 1s alsoon this floor. The work is being pushed as rapidly as possible, for the invitations for the opening on the 24th of this month are out, cose = COL. EDWIN H. BROWN, Gov.
