CAPITOL GLEANINGS. The Windrim Investigation Postponed— Terms of Civil Officers, Etc. Owing to the absence of two members of ‘the subcommittee of the Senate committee on public buildings and grounds investigating the charge that Supervising Architect Windrim was improperly influenced in the selection of a site for the public building at Springfield, Mo., the investigation which was to have been con- tinued yesterday was postponed until Tuesday mext ‘TERMS OF CIVIL OFFICERS. The Speaker yesterday laid before the House & letter from the Secretary of the Treasury in- closing a draft of a bill to limit and define the terms of all civil officers of the United States appointed for a fixed term. The passage of this bill will authorize a change in the form of commission and bond so that the sureties will ) be liable until a successor appointed and qualified. The bill provides that every civil Officer of the United States appointed for a fixed term of office shall hold and perform all duties of the oifice for which he is commis- aioned until his successor is appointed an quali- fied. The Secretary recommends the early passage of the bill. TO PROVIDE FOR POST OFFICE BUILDINGS. The House committee on post offices and post roads has authorized a favorable report on the bill introduced in the House by Mr. Blount to provide for post office buildings. ‘The bill as Lacie! rorides that there shall be in the Post Office Department one architect and superintendent of construction at a salar: of $4,000 per year. one draughtsman at a sai- ary of $2,000a year and two draughtsmen at salaries of $1,800 each. The Postmaster Gen- eral 1s authorized to have prepared by the draughtsman and his assistants a design for post office buildines, which, before being adopted, shall be approved by the Secretary of ‘the Treasury, the Postmaster General and the Secretary of the Interior. The Postmaster General is directed to construct a post office bmilding at any place at which the gross re- ceipts of the post office for two years or more preceding shall have exceeded $3,000 in each year. The cost of such buildings shall be pro- rtionate to the receipts at the various points, e bill appropriates out of the postal revenues, to be avuilable during the current year and un- til exhausted and to be expended for the pur- poses of this act, the sam of 2,000,000. LEA ‘2S ‘OR POST OFFICE EMPLOYES. The bill introduced in the House some time ago providi«s for fiffeen days’ leave of ab- sence annusi7 for clerks and employes at- tached to the first, second and third-class post- offices after a service of one year, was recently referred to the Postmaster General for his opinion. The Postmaster General has con- sidered the bill and says that he favors the bill, except for the employes of the third class. He regards it in the interest of the service to grant these leaves to employes. The additional cost of granting these leaves, he says, will amount to about $194,537 a year. AGAINST THE EIGHT HOUR-DAY FOR TOST OFFCE CLERKS. Postmaster General Wanamaker has com- manicated to the House committee on post offices and post roads, his opinion on the bill introduced by Representative Ketcham provid- ing that eight consecutive hours of labor shall constitute a day's work for clerks and employes in all first, second and third-class post offices, and that clerks and employes shall be paid ex- tra for over time. The Postmaster General says it is estimated that the present clerks and employes attached to these offices are employed on an average twelve hours per day. To limit the hours of labor to eight per day would re- ire the additional expenditure of $2,378,727. Spactiedh ansd eusasattel postmasters are of the opinion that it is impracticable to adjust the duties of the clerks so as to give each one a tour of consecutive hours of labor without great waste of money. NOMINATIONS CONFIRMED. The Senate in executive session yesterday confirmed the following nominations: Stephen A. Marine of Vinton, Iowa, pension ageyt at Des Moines, Iowa; Thomas W. Hardeman, post- master at Covington, Ky. THE OKLAHOMA BILL, ‘The conferees on the Oklahoma bill have practically agreed upon all of the points of difference in the biil, but will hold another meeting to perfect details. Ten Dollars for Shooting Chickens. Spring chickens in Mount Pleasant have caused trouble between the families of Judge Harmon of the Treasury Department and Mr. J. BR. Hertford, real estate dealer. The chickens were owned by Mr. Hertford, and they so annoyed Judge Harmon that he got rid of them with a shotgun. Judge Harmon has the use of a large lot belonging to Senator Sherman and he recently sowed oats there. Mr. Hertford’s chick- ens, it was claimed. played havoc with the oats, and stones that were thrown did not have the desired effect. The judge then gave his shot gun to his hired man, John Franklin. and gave him orders to kill the chickens. Like an obedient _ servant John did as he was told, and today he was culled upon to answer @ charge of vio- lating the police regulations. The case was called im the Police Court and Judge Har- mon defended his hired man. He ac- cepted all the responsibility and the chicken question was discussed at length. Judge Miller reminded Judge Harmon that there was a law requiring chickens to be kept up and off of other persons premises and that was his remeay. A fine of $10 was posed on Franklin and sentence was suspende: — Pleasant for Temperance Workers. ‘The parlors of the Fredonia were crowded last night with representatives of the various temperance organizations of the city, who gave a reception to Mr. J.C.

Lee's temper snc3 friends, presented him With an envelope containing $130, to which the recipient made a happy and feeling response. Remarks foc th+ g of the cause were made by Rev. Dr. H-rshey.

The leading hotels of New York are doings Jarger business this year than ever before in their Ristory. and it looks as though this pleasant of affairs might continue for sometime. The in- Bux of guests from all partsof the country, and in fact from all parts of the world, is taxing the re- sources of some of the most fashionable houses to the utmost. In some cases it has become abso- lutely necessary to provide additional tacilities, ‘8s for instance, at the Buckingham, one of the most luxurious and sumptuous hotels in all Amer- iea. As the building already occupies 200 50th street besides nice frontages ou Sth avenue and 49th sireet, the owner some time ago decided Ww add a fire-proof exteusion of about fifty roums on the 5th avenue side, which are now ready for @ecupancy. “The new part is furnished in the same artistic ang comfortable s tdi otc nose ty istinguishes the rest # superb parlors occupying the street floor the new portion are for gentlemen, and will afford stem the prious conveniences and comforts now aned i ensable by those w! modern first-class hotel.” ee ed he proprietors, Messrs.

Yesterday afternoon in the Police Court the examination of Mr. and Mrs, Isaac Greenapple on the charge of arson was resumed and, after hearing some testimony, the case was dis- missed by Judge Miller. Two witnesses testified to Flaumenbaum stating that if Greenapple and his wife had not been aroused they would have been suffocated. The prosecuting wituess, Flaumenbaum, was then recalled, but great difficulty was expe- ried in understanding bim through interpreters. Being sharply cross-exammed by Mr. Tobriner, counsel for the defense, the witness said: “I didn’t know of the fire till they (the Greenapples) aroused me.” Being asked why he had told a different story before, he said that Goldman told him that he should accuse Greenapple of setting fire to the lace. P the court asked if he wasup at the time, and witness answered: “No, I was asleep,” “How came you to know anything of the fire?” the judge asked. Witness—“‘I was asleep when Greenapple woke me up,and he did not tell me to say nothing about it.” The case was dismissed. THE COURTS.

To avoid the payment of duty which would have been collected had it remained in this country more than six months after its ar- rival here, the famous picture of “The Ange- lus,” by Millet. has been sent to Montreal, where it is stored in the vault of a safe deposit company. It will probably remain there until its owners decide what disposition they will finally make of it, — AChicago artist has recently modeled an equestrian statue of Gen. Sheridan riding to the front from Winchester, He rises in his stirrups and waves his hat to inspire the de- moralized Union forces, and the group is said to be full of life and spirit.

The attendance of visitors was quite large, throughout. and about one- third of the collection was sold, a number of the drawings going to some of the wealthiest and most exacting connoisseurs in the city. The largest piece shown—-a marine—was bought by Mrs. Harrison, and will be re! in one of the family apartments in the White House. — The annual art exhibit at the Cosmos Club will be hel this year from Tuesday April 29th to Saturday, May 3d, inclusive. During this time the fine assembly hall of the Club will, as usual, be devoted to the exhibition, which will be open on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thurs- day, from 10 a.m, to 10 p.m., and Friday and Saturday from 10 a.m. to4 p.m. All Washing- ton artists are expected to contribute, but as wall space is somewhat limited, there must necessarily be some discretion exercised by the committee in charge, based upon merit and size of works offered. Both oil paintings and water color drawings will be exhibited, but no copies will be received. — At the coming exhibition of the American Society of Artists, to be opened in New York on the 28th inst., Mr. D. C. French, the sculptor, will be represented by a life-size bust in clay of a modern society belle, coloreé to life. She is dressed «ecollete as to style, the drapery showing a shade of pale green, while her hair isthe color Titian loved. The ancients fre- quently colored their statues in this way, and Mr. Gibson, a sculptor of that country, created something of asensation in England a few years ago py exhibiting a marble Venus col- ored to life, but this is we believe the first time the experiment has been tried on so large » scale by an American artist. — The British Royal Academy will have over ten thousand paintings out of which to select the two thousand to which number the exhibi- tion this year isto be limited.

She contributes to the May number of Dem- orest’s Magazine an interesting article on “The White House,” which is profusely illustrated by process engravings after views taken by herself. ‘The reproductions are not in all cases every- thing that could be wished, but they all show artistic feeling in selection, and technicai knowledge in handling the subjects chosen. Miss Johnston has also done other creditable work of the same class for Demorest’s as well as for other periodicals, and is rapidly coming to the front both as an artistic illustrator and a clever writer. —A monument to James M.

Mrs, Kendal was so much liked in this country that her “Dramatic Opinions” lately republished on this side are sure to be widely |tead. And it is equally certain that they will alo be greatly enjoyed for their bright chatty style and strong personal flavor, seasoned hero and there with entertaining reminiscences of the stage, and shrewd observations on persons and things in general, Those who have seen the author in the line of characters lately por- trayed here will probably be surprised to learn that her first eee on the stage was as Eoa in “Uncle Tom's Cabin,” and that she has also esdayed Denlemona and Lady Macbeth in her younger days, She objects to actors going into society, since that is generally done as a means of advertising, and tates time which ought to be devoted to improvement in the profession, and she has moreover great faith in the judgment of the “gallery gods” upon plays and playera. Tho fact thet Mr. and Mra. Kendal always act to- gether is explained by her statement that it was only on this condition that her father would consent to their marriuge. The “Recollections” of Mr. George W. Childs, recently published in Lippincott’s Magazine, have been collected and reproduced ina handsome octavo volume, which is illus- trated by ®@ portrait of the author, and in- creased 1n size and interest by the incorpo tion of several additional chapters descriptive of Mr, Childs’ memorial gifts to Stratford-on- Avon, St. Margaret's Church, and Westminster Abbey, and some other matters personal in character, The author's reminiscences of Gen- eral Grant are especially valuable. No person possessed the great soldier's confidence and esteem in iarger degree than Mr. Childs, and some things were confided to him alone which he is now permitted to make public, The book posses8es qualities therefore which will not only ensure its popularity but give ita perma- nent value, Those who desire a permanent and graphic record of the great calamity which befel the Conemaugh valley and the attendant circum- stances, last year, will find it in “The Story of Johnstown,” a handsomely printed and pro- fusely illustrated book recently published by Mr. J.

The author was one of the first to reach the devastated place trom the outside, and speut much time there afterward, and his account as now revised and given to the world has the endorsement of those best qualified to judge of its fullness and ac- curacy, eae The Right to Earn From the Chicago News. That trades unions asa rule take a harmful stand on the subject of the employment of ap- prentices is admitted by many labor leaders. ‘The plea which is advanced for the limiting of the number of boys who are permitted to learn a trade is that of self-protection. The mensay that they have no time to teach boys how to work, and besides it is to their advantage not ne is too many competitors enter the labor ie! The American boy has to compete with all Europe when he tries to become a skilled workman. The natural growth of industries in this country is offset by the vast number of foreign craftsmen who come here well equipped for the tasks for which the young man of the United States has had no chance to prepare himself. Thus it comes about that the best workmen and those who command high. prices as specialists in fine work and foremen in shops are mainly of European birth and train- ing. The trades unions are swelled in mem- bership by foreigners, and so the number of ae saracee is kept down as low as possible. ‘The chief sufferer by this is the American boy. For some years there has been a studied disre- gard for his interests, He is forced to the wall by the inrush of craftsmen who have learned their trades in Europe. The master builders of this city say that one of the most obnoxious demands made on them by the striking carpenters is for authority to regulate the employment of apprentices. ‘The builders contend that they have the right to employ as many apprentices as they choose. As this is a question involving also the right of the American boy to earn a living a8 a skilled workman its importance will be conceded by all. Whenever trades unions try to advaace the interests of their members at the expense of other Or are of the labor field their in- fiuence is bad. Orgamzation has done much for workingmen, but when it strikes at the boy who is ambitious to learn a trade it plays the part of a bully. ‘The American boy does not havea fair chance ih cities like Chicago.

They spent the night before at Shreveport junction and ar- rived at Marshall Thursday morning, where they met a hospitable reception from the citizens, who extended the courte- ies of that city.

The Royal Baking Powder, as an actual fact, is the most economical in use of any made, because of its greatly supe- rior strength. Both the United States and Canadian Governments in the . reports of their investigation of baking powders have pub- lished this fact officially. The other baking powders known in this vicinity are shown by chemical tests to contain from 20 to 80 per cent. less leavening-gas than the Royal. So the Royal, even should it cost more than the others, would be much the cheaper. « In addition to this the superior flavor, sweetness, whole- someness and delicacy of the food raised by Royal Baking Powder would make any difference in cost insignificant. When the Royal makes finer and more wholesome food at a less cost, which every housekeeper familiar with it will affirm, why not discard altogether the old-fashioned methods tartar and soda, and use it exclusively ? of soda and sour milk, or home-made mixture of cream of or DRAWING ‘OF TRE LOUISIANA STATE Lor TERY.
