She scorned greatly ploased with her roccptieu, and her face was covered with smiles as long as the train remained. Wiiiie Miss Bly was busy shaking jeople by the band seme ene in the crowd proposed threo choers for her and they were' giveu with a will. These who could net shake the girl by the hand were obliged te uontent theuiselves encor ing for her. It was surprising, however, what a large number wero able te get her hand, and they hung en the car platform like flies. Theso who get te the girl's slde wero scarcely able te get away, se dense was the crowd. This thing was kept up until the train started, and as it leff Miss Bly remained upon the platform waving her cap te the crowd Its long as they wero in sight.

One llttle fellow, who had a tin bucket filled with dinner, which he "was probably carrying te his father, get In the crowd. He was hustled around se much that the lid finally came off the kettle and the dinner was spilled all evor the platform. It was tee late te save any of It, as the pushing, surgiugcrewd walked right evor It The party for whom the dinner was intended probably went hungry, but the boy had a shake of Nellle Bly's baud; that was all he cared for. A young fellow was asked by a friend whother he had shaken Ncily. He replied : " I was In the crowd almost up te her when a darkey that weighed about 200 pounds stepped en my feet.

DK.MOCItA.T8 IN CAUCUS. The New RuIch Censtdnred Determina tion te Resist Obnoxious Clauses. The Democratic members of the Heuso wcre in caucus for two hours Friday night, with Mr. Helman, of Indiana in the chair. The subject under discussion was the new cedo el rules new lu course or preparation by the com initttoeu rules. Mr, Carllsle, the Democratic inomber or that committee, explained in detail me nature ei me prin cipal changes projtesed te be made iu the old cede. Briefly stated, these that wero Instanced by Mr. Carllsle as being particularly objoc ebjoc objec tiouablo te the Dciuecmtiu minority are the rules that de away with tbe old Heuse cal endar, leaving only the calendars of the cotiimltteo of the whele und the state of the union ; that inuholvUitqueruinof thocom thecom thocem mltteo of the whele; that ro-establish the old morning hour rule when busiuess must be considered in the order of the commit commit commit tee list and bills must be regarded as pend ing until disposed of, and that fall te m,ikr privileged the motions te adjourn te u fixed day or take a recess. There was u long discussion ever these proposed changes, which failed te result In the advancement efanv practical schome for tho.atnellora- tlnu of the repugnant feature of the new nil os.

Although no formal resolution was adopted, It was a matter or under standing uiiieug the Democratic inoinbers when the cuucuk adjourned that this Hit publican plan should be resisted tn the utmost, und that the minority should exer clse all el lis constitutional riguis te pre vent Its success. In ethor words, the de termination Is te fight the rules legitimately when obnoxious sections ure reucliisl. and te refrain from voting und leave the Heuso without a quorum If uu attempt Is made te unseal Democratic members befere the rules are adopted. jiual te Hinuutrn.

Bids will be opcued in the office of the lighthouse beard, at Washington, D. C, July 1, for the erection of a lighthouse ou the Outer Diamond shoal.eff Cape Hatleras, N. O. The total cost of the structure Is limited by act or Congress te hair a million dollars. The Diamond shoals, which lle southeasterly of Cape Uatteras,haye always been dreaded by mariners as the most ex posed and dangerous locality en the entire Atlantla coast, and a large number of ves sels have been wrecked thore annually, In volving enormous losses of llfe aud prop erty. A lighthouse en the euter shoal would have undoubtedly saved many of theso vessels, as the nearest light en Cape Hat tents Is Invisible in bad weather. A light has never been orectod In this shoal befere en account of the extraordinary engineer ing dlfllcnltlcs In the way. and the work new contemplated will be the greatest undertaking In the line or llghthouso llghtheuso llghthouse building In the world. Thore ure but two lighthouses lu the world that can be at all compared with It. These are the. Rethor sand light at the mouth of the Weser river, Helland. In the North Soe, snd the fourteen-eeot light at tbe mouth of the Dota Deta waro boy. The tewer Is te be ene hundred and fifty feet high from low water mark te the light lit the lantern. It will have te be of great strength te withstand the action of the sea, and will have te rest en solid rock beneath the over-slilfting sands of the shoal. Te obtain this soil d foundation aud get the structure (e such a' height that the first rough woather will net destrey it utterly Is the great problem that the builders will have te solve. When all the odges rest firmly en the rock the entire caisson and tube will be tilled with caucrole te a height of thirty feet abeve the sea lovel, converting It Inte a solid block and column of stene almost as firm as a graulte monolith. The action of the seas and the constant scouring of the sand might seen wear away the iron shell, but the cencrete will be practically ludo lude ludo Ktructible. It will be protccted, however, by a rip-rap acking of granite blocks weighing net less than two tens each. Abeve tills solid struct ure will rise an Iren and steel tewer divlded Inte ten storles, Including the watch-room and the lantern. After getting the caisson towed out te its final resting place the contractors will have te work night and day, without A moment's Intormisslen until It rests en Its foundation and tbe concrete Is filled in, for if a storm should arise bofero this work was dene overythlng would be destreyed. At tbe Rothersand light, which was built en this prlnciple, the first caisson was thus de stroyed and the contractor was financially rulned by the less. In this lighthouse the first fleer will be devoted te stores, the second te the fog signal machinery. The third fleer will be n fireproof storehouse for oil for the lamp The next four floors will contain the living rooms for the kenper and his assistants. Thoelghth fleer will be the service room, and abeve it will rise the watch room and the lantern. The llghthouse beard does net specify what method shall be adepted, but It Is generally understood that an Immense caisson, eighty or one hundred feet in dia meter, witli a hollow Iren cllluder project lug from Us contre, will be built at the most convenient pert. This will rosemble a gigantic Iren pan turned upslde down, with a tube running from Its cotitre. This caisslen will have te be tewed out te the slte, being lifted en the way evor a bar whero thore Is but eight feet of water at high tide. When It is finally at the slte It will be sank rapidly until Its cutting edges rest en the Bunds et the shoal. Then the work of excavation will be begun and car ried en us fast as the most modern appli ances will admit. As the sand beneath the caisson Is oxcuvated and carrled up through the tube the sharp edges will sink lower until finally bed rock is reached. Werk is te be commencod within ene month from the date of the approval of the contract and the contractor is te fix the time within which it lste be completed. Ne pay pay ment Is te be made until the llgblhouse has been in successful operation a year. Not withstanding the unusual dlffloultlesln the way of carrying out tills work, a number of large engineering firms will probably bhl. and It is thought thore will be no diffi culty in onterlng into a contract.
