A little paragraph published recently elates to the unveiling of a monument it Calcutta by the Viceroy to the memry of Mr. Hoi well, who. with 145 other j tersons, were confined In the Black 1 Hole in June, 1750. The hole was a oom about eighteen feet square and igbted by one small window only. The dea of 14G people left to struggle and rant for air in this space Is truly horriying, comments the London Chronicle. tVhen the doors were opened 123 were ound to be dead or dying, and of the wenty-three survivors several were mbseauently cut off through the dis a.<H?

That which iffects us in bad air is therefore the j omblnation of this gas with other j caste products, and most notably, the rganic matter given off from lungs ind skin.

It is amid air loaded with ! his material that the germ of typhus . ever (the old "jail fever" of John ioward's days) breeds and multiplies, rhe prevention of typhus fever is a natter of ventilation, and doubtless he deaths in the Black Hole were lue to a rapid form of blood poisoning nduced by the breathing of air contaminated by the debris of the unfortunate >odlea imprisoned therein.

The deadlock in each winjr of the Capitol died only with the Congress. The Fifty-seventh Congress accomplished a Rood deal in the way of lejjislation. In his room at the Senate end of the Capitol the President, with his Cabinet, expremted his satisfaction in -* - ' ' I -1 U> hnrl me work iuui uuu mt-u uuur. ???. ?? hoped for more, hut with what had been done he was satisfied. The President was at bis post in the Capitol at 10 o'clock, prepared to give consideration to any act which might in the last minutes of the session be laid before him. The existence for a week past of a deadlock in !>otb houses bad. however. lightened his duties, and he had an easy escape from the usual peril of hasty examination of legislative acts. In the number of special acts that have been passed the session just closed was marked by diligence. In the neighborhood of 1*200 private (mostly pensions) and 150 general acts were passed and approved by the President since December last. Among the latter, exclusive of gen- ) eral appropriations, are a number of i measures of more thaa ordinary importance. Included in the public act* are: Act establishing a Department of Commerce and Labor. Acts to regulate trusts and combinations in restraint of trade. Act creating a staff corps for the army; reorganization of the militia. Act providing a Philippine currency; revision of the Bankruptcy act. Act requiring automatic couplers on railway trains. Act regulating immigration. Act authorizing the erection of a large number of public buildings In various sections of the country. Act providing for a considerable increase in the Navy. Taking the outcome of the two sessions of the Fifty-seventh Congress it is doubtful If any previous Congress for a number of years made a better record in respect to work that was required by the public Interests. The President was sincere in presenting bis congratulations to Congress upon having accomplished fo much good work, although the congratulation coming at a time when the two houses were still engaged in the work of obstructing further legislation, seemed to some to be n bit of biting sarcasm. The closing scenes of every Congress are pretty much the same, but there has not been in in my year such a demonstration in the House as occurred on the retirement of Speaker Henderson, not only as presiding officer, but as a member. The Democrats prevented the 8peaker from receiving the unanimous approval of the House when the usual rittolutlon of thanks was offered. More than thls^ the resolution had to | come from the Republican ?i<ie, wncreoh the custom Is for it to be introduced by the opposition party. The usual resolution of thanks to President Pro Tempore Frye was unanimously adopted In the Senate. . . When Speaker Henderson entered the House it was the signal for an enthusiastic demonstration. The Rppublicana anplauded and Democrats joined. As the applause continued the Republicans arose and cheered vociferously. Democrats contenting themselves with hnndciapplng. Mr. Cannon, standing on the clerk's dais, read the resolution expressing the thanks of the House for Speaker Henderson's service. Speaker Henderson then addressed the House. "An age spent under this dome must give opportunity for forming many and strong ties," he said. "Constituted as I have i>ecn from childhood, friendship is an essential element of ray life's food, and whether on the floor or In the chair I have fonnd a bountiful supply in this hall.

"But I hnve seen another beautiful thing. When the flag wus raised in war I hare seen both sides of this chamber, as one man. put $50,000,000 into the bands of the Chief Magistrate and say 'Lead on!' without a dissenting voice. I say from that hour I have believed that there was no future moment when the disintegration could come to this republic. And when I saw the young men from every State in the Union touching elbow to elbow and rushing Into the ranks of war. there was absolute confirmation of that belief." Monay Bjmat l?7 Comitmi.

After Beeler was convicted th? company sued him and obtained judg ment for $"rO.OOO. Charles A. Beeler had been with th< Wells - Fargo Express Company foi many years, working up from an inslg nitlcant post.

It was early in thp morning whei Beeler left with the $."2,000 In his cus tody. That was the last seen of him At first it was supposed that the dellv ery bad been made. Toward the mid die of the afternoon the paymastei called up the express office and asked that the money be sent over Immedi ntely. as his car was ready to proceed on the westward trip.

It "Am Empty Pr?t?ulM biad Which la *?i(h?r En?rg?tic Will Nor Actual Pow?." Berlin. Germany.-"The Monroe Doctrine is an empty pretension, behind which is neither energetic will nor tetual power." TIium Professor Adolpb Wngner, the celebrated political economist of Berlin University, begin* his reply to two questions submitted by a rorrespondeut whether the Monroe Doctrine was In a moral sense as binding as international law. and what action seems dictated, lir.-t, in the interest of the German people and then IB the Interest of the European nations. "Scarcely could suen a aocirioe o* forced upon i conquered people after e-.trnordinary victories." routinueji the professor. "But not even the United States' predominant interests are behind this unheard-of assumption. South America is neither geographically nor historically so allied with North Amer- e lea and the United States at to Justify Kuch a pretention, even from a North * American viewpoint." Answering the se<-ond question. Professor Wagner says: "From the viewpoint, too. of the wider Germanic races a simple recognition of the Monroe Doctrine would be n false step, even if it were settling tbe world question whether the Germanic or Romanic elements should dominate the world. As a member of the Germanic race I do not want to sec the Romanic element pressed to the wall, because it is indispensable to the world's civilization aid is a necessary complement to Germanic culture. "We really have nj interest In farthering the preponderance of the United States or England or both. The world's civilization would hardly be xdvanced thereby. Aside from some technical and business spheres, what has the United Stale* yet done of importance for the real civilisation of the world? What has it done that has deserved to be named in the same breath with the achievements of Italy sod v Frsnce?" Baron von Zedlitz uod Nuekircb. a member of the Prussian Diet and editor of the Berlin Post wrote: "The Monroe Doctrine is. from * viewpoint of International law, a nonbinding monologue, whose enforcement Is purely a question of force." Professor Hsns von Delbroeck. of Berlin University, discussing Venezuela in the Treusslsehe Jsbrbuecber, refers to the "perfidious nature** of the American Dolicv aud advocates an al- a 1 lance between Great Britain and Germany.

The American woman, tba i pro feasor said, undoubtedly was pre* jj eminent In Intellect, education and art; i "but she cannot cook, and, according to President Roosevelt, will not marry." H Continuing, the professor said: "The K President's fears, however, probably 2 nre exaggerated, as the American man Q is l>y uo means the purely dollar-seeker V be >o often has been described to be. * He in. above all. tender-hearted, often ] sentimental, charitable, public-spirited, chivalrous to women and unapproachable in hospitality." Professor Lorenz summed up his Impressions by saying America was "a magnificent country, inhabited by a noble people." 9 PREACHER BECOMES A MORMON.
