ENCYCLOPEDIA OF NEWSPAPERS READY Blorr Prt(ri In Work ( Preparing Iho White Iloaee for Orenpnnry of President ftnd HI raaslly. (From a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON. Oct. 2. (Special.) Th library of congress In the rut two years bag Issued many valuable bibliographical publication, consisting mainly of annotated listi of maps and books relstlsg to sub jects which are of Interest to congress. For Instance, tb bibliographical depart ment baa put forth a cumber of lists of books bearing upon the subject of trust, of the history, geography, bibliography, etc., of Porto Rico, Cuba, th Philippines and others relating to various subjects considered in the general debates before congress. All of these books have been Issued by the heads of the departments In the library. There ha been prepared In addition to II of these a large book of about 2,000 pagea la the form of an annotated list of the newspapers of th United States, ex tinct and current, going quite fully Into the Individual history of each accordiug to It relative Importance. The main points usually covered In the Instance of each newspaper are the founders, date of founda tion, the politic, the general policy, the principal editors and proprietor and malu events in Its history, with dates; It rela tive Importance and any editorial action which might be considered unique or In structive In journalism. This work wa performed by a well known newspaper man who worked In a aubordlnate capacity In the periodical di vision, Ralph M. McKenzle, who was an employe of the department for five years. The work occupied much extra time over and above what wa required In the government service and was turned over to the librarian a year and a half ago on prom le of publication as a library docu ment. Owing to atress of work and the fact that It wa a large production. It has never been published nor reduced to type written form for publication. Interest to Newspaper Ma. The book would be of great Interest to newspaper men throughout the country, aa was evidenced when first brought to the attention of the librarian. Many newspa per urged Its Isaue from the press and Itave it Urge apace In tholr Washington dispatches aa well as In their editorial column. Th book also Includes a cata logue of the newspapers in the library of rongre, which ' has been published a a aeparat library document, omitting all the Individual newspaper history. It wa is sued as a document by the head of the periodical department and the real author was given no credit for his production; Congress will be asked this winter to bav tb work Issued from the press as a publio document, provided th author, atcKentle, who has recently been dropped from the library force, can be retained In Washing ton and Induced to take the responsibility of preparing and editing the work tor pub lication. It will be of encyclopedic else nd will have large Indexes and a biblio graphy of about 10,000 references to book from which the newspaper history wa se cured. It I considered too valuable a production 'to be consigned to the wast heap or other wise lost, because the average - librarian doea not conalder modern newspapers worth presarvlns lo a modern library or their bibliography or history of sufficient value to be printed, when old map end print and other bric-a-brac of a more or less worth less character a far aa the publio is concerned, have been catalogued by the library In thousands of printed pagea. Kaeeatlve Office About Ready. The new executive building where the president and the White House larce will have quarter will be ready for occupancy bout November 1. It Is doubtful when the White House will be ready tor tha president's family. The first Installment of the new furniture for the private part of the house arrived several day ago, but It has been stored In the upper corridor until Mrs. Roosevelt return to Washing ton and Is ready to direct It disposal In the rooms. It the president's family move Into the White House within the next few weeks they will have to depend upon tbo elevator or the small spiral stairway, start In from the pantry and running to the econd floor, for means of reaching the private rooms, because the mala stairway are far from completed. For this reason It Is probable that the president's family will remain tor some weeks yet at the Iatayette Square house. The elow work on the improvement of th White House haa caused some doubt ' to the possibility ot the completlen of the etate apartments In time for wlntor receptions and levees. Every effort will be mad to have th East Room and the Red. Blue and Green parlcre ready for the New Tear reception and tb regular state card reception always held in January aud February. But Mr. Roosevelt will not he able to hold many social functions outside ot the official onea this winter en account o the leoompleted state at lue lower part of the White House. . Tho shadow pictures ot President Roose veil aad the late President McKlnley, painted lu tbe Imitation marble walla of statuary hall ia th capitol by Artist Sam uel Allison, after creating a ripple ot ex cltement among the guardians of th build ing, have been ordered to h palsied out. Artlat Samuel Allison, who decorated th famous brick column la th pension office, we very proud ot hi latest feat with th brush. He wanted tbe two portraits to remain, but the oapltol authorities said no. He was told that as samples ot art the pictures were entitled to high rank, but as curiosities their drawing power was too BEER -MTLWAUKI The maintaining- of that higrh degree of excellence that won for ,'BlarsM ita enviable repu tation 'war bach 1m the forties, haa required undevlstlng car la the eelectioa of materials, and the constant attention of the moat ekilled master of the brewer' art.

The pictures would no doubt hare remained on tbe walla of the famous cham ber forever If Wavhlngtotilans and strang ers had not evinced such an eagfr desire to seo them. Tbe crowds beesme so large that the painters employed in and about the house wing ot the rapltol were fre quently obliged to stop their work. Te cap th cllmaa, however, a corps of pho tographers from tbe New York Illustrated weeklies began to arrive with mammoth picture-taking machines. Then the guard Ian of the rapltol threw up their hand. A conference was held snd a decision reached to pstnt the pictures out. Another reason assigned for the removal of tbe pictures Is that their being there wa nut dignified. It was not regarded ss proper for them to remain in so public a place in tbe capitol of the United States. t'nlqne Character Die. William E. Chandlee, a tobacco dealer 79 years old, died at his residence In this city Thursday. At the time of his death Mr. Cbandlee was conducting a clger store Just off the lobby of the Ebbltt house. He ws personally known to a large number of prominent politicians and army snd navy men. He came to Washington In 1852 and learned the carpenter trade. One day he mashed one of his fingers. Throwing down Lis tools he declared that he would never again work st hi trade. Being an expert penman he secured a stand In Wlllard's hotel and became a card writer. During that period he wrote cards for men promi nent In politics during tbe exciting daya Just before the war. Through the friend ship of the famous Innkeepers the Wil lardu he next took charge ot the hotel cigar stand. While conducting this busi ness Joseph C. Wlllard Intrusted hlra with a mesasge that altered Lincoln's plsns for coming to Washington. The message was Id a sealed envelope and was given to Mr. Chandlee with explicit Instructions to de liver It Into tho hands of no other than Colonel Sumner, who was In charge of th president's party. The message, which-was delivered with great difficulty te Colonel Sumner at the Continental hotel. Phlladel- pnla, told of the high feeling then exist- Ing In Baltimore and advised tb president elect to avoid that city In coming to Wash ington for bis Inauguration. Mr. Lincoln quietly passed through Baltimore In the night and before his Identity could be dis covered. Tbe first panorama of Bull Run exhibited In thla city Mr. Chandlee 1 said to have had In his cigar store, which he then ke'pt In Fourteenth street. Shortly after the battle an enterprising wall paper firm man ufactured a paper with pictures of the fight. It was with this paper that Mr. Chandlee paperd bis store and for years It was known ss tbe "Bull Run Cigar Store."

After seventy-four years of married life Mr. and Mrs. John lams of Washington county, Iowa, look back and find that they never had a dispute much less a quarrel. However strenuously they may havs fallen out with their neighbors, tbelr chll- ren and their other relatives, relates the Chicago Tribune, they have steadfastly per sisted in keeping peace with each other. They, have just celebrated tbe 74lh anni versary ot their wedding and none ot their ten children aad none ot their relatives was present. Mr. and Mrs. Isms let It be knowa that this wss their celebration and that they preferred to be alone. They care more for each other than they do for their children, lthough they are .not lacking .n paternal affection. , John lams is 93 years old. His wits is 92. When they took each other for better or worse conditions were such that In this dsy people would consider it decidedly for worse. Mrs. lams, was then Sarah McVey. After a courtship ot several months shs said "yes" to John, and an uncle. Squire Jacob McVey, was called te her homo to perform the ceremony. That was In Wssh- lngton county, . Pennsylvania. The groom wore, a, blue Jeans suit which cost (1 i yard, lie bad a M fur cap and a new pair, of glover-whlch he had purchased with the Intention of dragging them on at the last trloment', Jbut his intentions failed htm and he accepted' his bride with glove less hands. The bride wore a calico dress which In those days cost 17 cents a yard. In tho days when John lams centered his affections' so strongly on Mlaa Sarah she was, according- to his description, the pret tiest girl In Pennsylvania. She had rosy cheeks snd a figure tbat did not need a straight front" to make It trim. Now she Is changed, but she holds tbe affections Just the same. John, at S3 years, admits the change. Now," he ssld, "she looks a little dif ferent. Her nose and her chin almost meet and her figure Is not so gracefully propor tioned as It was seventy-four yesrs ago, but she Is a good old woman Just the same." Mre. lams, the pretty Ssrsh thst wss. laughed at this description. When they moved to tha west and set tled In Iowa their first home was a rati pen. They were busily engaged In building a luxurious log house, but winter came on them before It was done and It was not an unusual thing for the coupla to arise In their rail house and shake several Inches of snow oft ths bed as ths first step toward breakfast. Constitutions were rugged and contentment was cheap, too, as both affirm that those days were the happiest ot their lives. A ysar afterward they bad a mansion ready. It was a log house ot two rooms aud a chimney. They feared ths effenlnlsing in fluences of such luxury. Mrs. Isms remsm- bers tbat her husband used to go to church In his bare feet. It is only of late years that they havs overcome a prejudice to un derclothing. The complications of modern attire ars somewhat beyond tnetr com pre henalon and they are giving up the study la disgust. When their Tith anniversary came around they accepted with grstltude tbe ottering of their numerous descendants, hut they preferred to remain alone en thst occasion snd none of th children or grandchildren csme to litter their floors with ths remains of a feast. Their only callers were a few of the neighbors who "Just dropped in" te ssy a friendly word. Th descendant of the old coupl num ber ten children, thlrty-alx grandchildren and sixty-five great grandchildren. Soon after he had gone to Washington county, Iowa, John lams walked twenty-five miles te the government lend office and paid S0 tor forty acTes of Isnd. This Is their home now, with large addi tions, Yesr by year he added to hts hold ings until he had a qusrter section valued st $90 sn acre. Mr. Isms does not agree with the old saying that the ony good In dlan Is a dead Indian. He aaserts that he trsded with them so long as thsy were his neighbors and found them reliable and honest. A sermon against the uae of tobacco and whisky cannot be found In his life. He has been a moderate user of both. On ot bis visitors at the recent celebration wss In vlted to come back and attend ths funeral; for the old people have a grim sort ot humor. Tho visitor responded esrasstly that be hoped to bs abls to come to the 75th celebrstioo Instead. "1 don't know tbat I can bring diamonds, though." hs added. "That's all right." ssld John lams, "bring hod of coal." Last Cabin Philosophy.

Finger Print Kvldence fiends a l.on uoa Man to Prison. In "Pudd'nhead W'llson," the play founded on Mark Twain' tory, the country law yer, whose fad It Is to collect Impressions of tho thumbs of his acquaintances, con vict a defendant of murder by Identifying his thumb print with an impression t-.ken some time before the trial. The audience finds the notion Ingenious and amusing, but tho comment is apt to be that wbilo It serves its purpose In a melodrama It would have no utility In real life. On the contrary, finger prints as evidence sre com ing to be regarded as of considerable Im portance by the British and continental po lice. In the central criminal court cf Lon- don recently, relates the New York Sun, a defendant was convicted of burglary on such evidence. The prosecutor said It was offered to convict for the first time In an English court. It seems that the window sashes of the house entered hsd been freshly painted, and on one of them was left the Impression of the burglar's hand. A photograph of It was made by tbe po lice. Two months later the defendant was arrested In tbe neighborhood after a chase. In which he dropped s burglar's kit. Ser geant Collins ot Scotland Yard, who, like "Pudd'nhead Wilson." had made a study of hand prints, took an Impression of the prisoner's thumbs snd fingers snd t'Stlflod that the lines of the prisoner's left hand exactly corresponded with the impression left on the freshly pslnted window sash by the burglar. This evidence convinced the Jury and it brought In a verdict of guilty. Unfortunately tor a challenge of the theory set up by the prosecution, the prisoner was not represented by counsel. That theory was tbat the finger prints of no two living persons are exactly alike. In the English prisons band impressions ot the Inmates are taken as well as pho tographs and measurements. In France finger prints are sometimes offered in. evi dence in criminal esses. So far as we kpow the police of the United States have not made any use of the theory in their records for tbe identification ot criminals. . MAfHUE-MADE BREAD. Human Hands No Longer Keeded In the Work. Within the last doten years, says tbe Saturday Evening Poet, the business of bread-making has been -relegated largely to machlner), and In many bakeries tbe raw materials sre converted into dough by means of a somewhat complicated ap paratus tbat does the .work without inter vention by human hands. Obviously, tbe next etep is to devise a contrivance tbat will knead ths dough and transform It Into loaves ready for tbe oven.
