HOUSE BEGINS BUSINESS Speaker Henderson Sworn in and an Army ot n A% In- trodaced. WASHINGTON, Dee, 2 The opening day of the first session of fhe Fifty-soventh con- gress today furnished a spectacle that de- lighted the crowded galleries. The ma- chinory of the house is st in motion by a laborious process, but the spectators today evidently did not consider it tedlous, as they cluug to their places through the en- tire proceedings, which lasted four and one- half hours, probably half the time being onsumed in the monotonous calling of the roll The organization of the house was accom- plished according to time-honored prece- dents. Speaker, Henderson was sworn in by General Bingham, “the father of the house,” and after delivering a very grace- ful speech {n recognition of the honor be- stowed upon him, he In turn administered the oath to the members-elect, The usual committees were appolnted to inform the president and the senate that the house was organized and ready to do business. committee of three, consisting of Messrs. Payne, Bingham and Richard- son, was appolnted to join a similar com- mittee of the semate and wait upon the president and Inform him that congress was ready to receive any communication he might have to make. The rules of the house were adopted after slight jar and then the blennial seat-drawing occurred. This latter ceremony was robbed of much of its Interest today by the fact that under the mew arrangoment of seats there are more than enough to go around and those whose names are drawn last do not suffer as_they did on former occasions. The flower show, which is the great fea- ture of the opening day, was not as im- posivg as usual. More flowers than ever before were sent to members, but after the t-drawing the house adjourned before a third of them were brought into the hall, Three Thousand BI It was estimated by officals of the house that over 3,000 bills had been introduced before 12 o'clock today. There was much rivalry for tho honor of having bill No. 1, no less than fifteen members having asked for this precedence. The Indications are that the bill of Mr. McCleary restricting the sale of oleomar- garino will be so designated when the records are made up.' The bills took a wide range, three Pa- clfic cable bills by Representative Sher man of New York, Corliss of Michigan and Joues of Washington gave varying phases of this project, Mr. Jones proposing the morthern route via Puget sound, with an appropriation of $8,000,000, and Mr. Corll _— Difficult Digestion That is dgspepsia 1t makes lite miserable.

' WASHINGTON, Dec. 2.—A profusion of floral offerings, quite unusual in quantity, in varfety and in beauty, today transformed the senate chamber into a vegitable flower show. . Almost, every member of the body was the recipient of one or more of these evidences of the regard of his friends and the atmosphere of the chamber was heavy with the odor of rare plants. - The display of chrysamtbemums was notably beautiful, many of the specimens being of the cholcest varletles, Stnce the adjournment of the senate laet spring the chamber has been redecorated and recarpeted. The principal feature of its beauty and individuality have beem ro- tained, but they have been added to by the artlstic decorations. A bright, green ca pet with old gold figures has taken the plac of the old gold carpet and the desks and turnishings of the chamber have been not- ably improved. Galleries Filled An hour before noon both the public and privato galleries were thronged with spec- tators, overy available inch of standing room being occupied. Senators assembled slowly. Mr. Kean of New Jersey was the first senator to appear in the chamber. He was closely followed by Mr. Tillman of South Carolina and Mr. Hoar of Massa- chusetts soou after took his seat and burled himself in a newspaper. The ven- erable Senator Vest «of Missouri was in his seat twenty minutes before the body was calltl to order. He was accorded a most cordial reception by his colleagues. By noon practically every semator in the city had appeared in the chamber. Many of them made no attempt to reach their | seats on account of the wealth of floral offerings, which fairly filled the desks and alsles, Called to Order, Precisely at 12 o'clock Mr. Frye of Maine, president pro tem of the senate; rapped for order. The blind chaplain of the senate, Rev, W Milburn, them delivered the following in- vocation: “God of our fathers, Thy servants of this chamber are come together for the open- | Ing of the Fifty-seventh congress, with kindly feelings each for the other and impressed with the sense of duty as their tasks are opening before them. -And yet there comes to us the oppressive sense of lmperial Chemical Cn. 1% W, 2id Su, N Y. an upspeakable loss, the departure of our your | brother, our father and the friend and cheer of the nation, by the hand of the as- | sassin 0 Lord, God, let come to all the people }w. of this unsp: T servant, the | berert n Thy | come to her Thy pity and grace of this land by rea- akable calamity, And a widow, sits alone and comfort and consolation Denth lnvades ( And O Lord m, feel and attendant upon the departure from earth of & member of this body from South Dakota Hear our de | servant, the senior senator from New sey (Mr. Sewell) and grant that the means which are used for his recovery to health may be blest by Thee and may he come to his place upon this floor again crowned | with Thy loving kindness, ‘Grant Thy grace (o every member of this body and to all who are dear to them. and so may the light and favor of God, our Father, be with us all now and evermore.

Hale and Mr. Morgan were named as the committee Mr. McLaurin of North Carolina offered a joint resolfition authorizing the impor- tation free of duty of articles fntended to be exhibited at the Charleston exposition of Alabama tion at the Buffalo Charleston exposition Mr. Hoar objected to immediate consid- eration, saying it was the universal prac- tice of the senate to transact no business until the president had been informed that congress was prepared to do business. Th resolution was withdrawn temporarily. Re- cess was taken until 2 o'clock, but no re- port of the organization of the house hav- Ing been received at that time, Mr. Gamble of South Dakota formally announced the death of Senator Kyle of that state on July 1 last. He offered the usual resolution, ex- pressive of the sorrow of the senate, and after its adoption the senate as an addi- tional mark of respect adjourned until to- morrow HOUSE ‘IS CALLED TO ORDER Dowell Opens the New in the Hall of Repre= exposition to the HINGTON, Dec The very band- some interior of the hall of representatives added much to the general impressiveness of the gencral scene at the south end of the capitol, when Alexander McDowell of Pennsylvania called the new house of repre- sentatives to order at noon today. The vast chamber had been repalnted, regilded and completely refurnished during the recess. Many changes have been made for the comfort of both the members and spec- tators. The floor had been elevated to a greater angle, the new mahogany. desks ris- ing tier on tier, making a sort of amphi- theater effect. At the conclusion of the roll call, show- Ing 318 members present, Mr. Cannon of Illinois nominated David B. Henderson of Towa and Mr. Hay of Virginia nominated Mr. Richardson of Tennessee for speaker. A roll call for the election then followed. The vote for speaker was: Henderson, 10 Richardson, 149; Stark of Nebraska, 1; Cum- mings of New York, 1. Mr. Henderson was declared elected and was escorted to the chalr by the other three mem voted for. He made a brief speech, When the members had been sworn the formal resolutions were adopted and Mr. Dalzell offered a resolution to adopt the rules of the Tifty-sixth congress. Mr. Richardeon and Mr. Hepburn were each glven five minutes and the previous ques- tlon was then demanded. Every chair except those in the diplo- _— FOOD FACT! w to Pro riy Feed the Body. Physicians nowadays realize how nec- essary it Is that the food contain the right elements that the body requires to rebuild itself, and replace the loks that occurs each day from activity and energy. 1t one lifte on arm, that means an ex- penditure of a small amount of energy, and the burning up, 5o to speak, of certaln de- posits from the food. This means & certaln loss, and this loss must be mado up each day from food. It the food does not con- tain the things required, nature hoists a flag of distress; aches, alls, sickness of some sort sets In, meaning that there Is something lacking in the food. The reason physicians so generally ad- vise the use ot Grape-Nuts Breakfast Food 15 that they know from what it is made and what it contains. The medical jour- nals in various parts of the world have given the analysis. The famous “London Lancet” went o far as to make a very careful analysis by ite own chemist. Its remarks are worth repeating, “The preparatory process undoubtedly converts the food constituents into a much more digestable condition than in the raw cereals. This s evident from the remarka- bl solubllity of the preparation. No less than one-half of It being soluble in water. The soluble portion contains chiefly dex- trim and no starch. According to our anal- ysls the following is the proportion: Molsture . +ees 6.02 per cent. Mineral matter . 201 IREPTI . 1.60 Proteids .. veenesd15.00 Soluble Carbohydrates. ...49.40 Unaltered carbohy- drates .. ST ““The features worthy of uote in this anal- ysis are the excellent proportion of pro- teids and mineral matter, and soluble car- bohydrates. “The mineral matter is rich phosproric acld. Our analysis shows that it is & nu- tritive of high order, since ti contains the constitutents of & complete food In the right proportions, and in an easily assimilable state.” Notice per the cent. about and carbohydrate total is These produce energy warmth, The phosphorle acid in the mineral matter comes, as do all of the other ingredients, from the fleld grain, not one particle being Introduced as a dru Physiclans know that the soft matter in the brain and nerve centers throughout the body are made from the elements of albumen aoted upon by phosphate of potash, Albumen is a very common article In al- most every food, but phosphate of potash does not exist in all foods, nor Is it found in easlly digestible form always.

As General Hend son appeared two minutes later on the arm of Mr. Richardson the speaker was greeted with @ great outburst of applause from both sides of the house. Mr. Richardson intro- duced him in half a dozen words. The speaker addressed the house briefly, saying Gentlemen of the lHouse of Represent tives: This high honor which you have conferred upon me ¥ profoundly appreci- ate. All the mage do I appreciate it, com- ing as it docs, With this generous expres- sion from both sides of the chamber.

As I said at the open- ing of the last congress, no presiding officer can successfully administer the du- tes of his office unless he has the Kupport of the body over which he presides, 1 asked for it then; you gave it to me throughout the entire congress. Permit me once more to invoke that patience, kind and splendid support which was accorded to me in the lust congress. The maker of laws should not be a breaker of laws. We proceed under law and rules, and the dutles devolving upon each and all of the membership of this house will be far better conserv if this principle is kept in mind and acted upon Agaln, sincerely thanking you, one and all, I am ready to take the prescribed onih of office. Subscribes to the O Chair, rk and Cummings (Applause.) th, The honor of administering the oath to the speaker fell to Mr. Bingham of Penn- sylvania, the oldest member of the bouse in point of continuous service. The speaker then in turn administered the oath to the members-elect, They came forward In state delegations as their names were called. At the conclusion of this cere- mony the speaker laid before the house the resignation of Nicholas Muller as a representative from the Seventh congres- sional district of New York, to take ef- fect December 1. Mr. Cannon of Illinols then presented the following resolution for the election of officers of the house: Resolved, That Alexander McDowell of Pennsylvania be and 18 hereby chosen clerk ¢ the house of representatives; that Henry Gasson of - Wisconain be and ia hereby chosen sergeant-at-arms; that Willilam J. Glenn of New York be and s hereby chosen doorkeeper; that Joseph C. McElroy of Ohfo be and_is hereby chosen postmaster, and that H, N. Couden of Michigan be and {8 hereby chosen chaplain Perfanctory Renolutions. Mr, Hay of Virginia, on behalf of the minority, presented a sub-resolution con- taining the names of the candidates se- Jected by the democratic caucus last Sat- urday. The minor resolution was voted down and Mr. Cannon's resolution was adopted. The usual resolutions to notify the pres ident and the senate that the house had re- selected Mr. Henderson as speaker and Mr McDowell as clerk were adopted. Mr. Bingham then offered a resolution for the appointmont by the speaker of committee of three to joln a similar com- mittee of the senate to walt upon the president and notify him that a quorum of the two houses had assembled and that congress was ready to recelve any com- munication he might have to make. The resolution was sdopted and the speaker ap- pointed Messrs, Payne, York, Bing- ham, Pennsylvania, and Richardson, Ten- nessee. Mr. Dalzell then offered the resolution agreed to by the republican caucus on Sat- urday for the adoption of the rules of the last house, with certain specified amend- ments, as the rules of the present house First Fire of iSession. This drew the first fire from the other side. Mr. Richardson asked whether op- portunity was to be given to offer amend- ments and on receiving a negative reply he protested against such action. He sald he desired to ofter some amendmeuts which be thought would prevall if the gentleman from lowa (Hepburn) could de- liver the forty votes which the newspapers had sald he had in the republican caucus last Saturday Mr. Dalzell said t | tlar to that taken | He pointed out that in the last the rules were prac- tically identical with those of the Fifty- first, Fifty-fourth and succeeding con- gresses and practically identical with those of the intervening democratlc congresses.
