Incidentally, several hundred seats In house and senate. This Is the tally of the annual out put of Washington's great ammunition factory, or, rather, wilt be for the year ending the first of the coming Novem ber, according to one of the expert manufacturers engaged In the work. It will be a record-breaking year in this regard. . . The present summer Is the capital's quadrennial season of special rest and quiet-the presidential year. To Wash ingtoniahs June is, of all months, the laziest of the year. Its soft, languor ous days drive drowsily away every thought but of seashore or mountalni lapped in the breezes of the young summer, the city . dozes In sleep n? quietude,' the spell of this presidential year adding to its somnolence. Even j in the halls of congress, so lately strir dent with the raucous - protests of me steam-roller, there is heard only the droning monotone of the rending clerk, and, anon, the low, dull quash of the veto.'. Senators, representatives, cabinet officers. In short, every official big enough to get away without oewg missed from the complex government mechihe, have betaken themselves to the "convention or the country, and only the mild civil service clerk now pads softly .through the twilight corridors of the departmental buildings. Worlrinsr Overtime. . In'governmental Washington It Is night all night In the nighttime, and every day Sunday, save In that ammunition factory, the great building of the gov ernment printing office at the corner of North Capitol and H streets, north west. There It is day all day in the daytime and there is no night; Sunday (s distinguished only a being somewhat busier' thai weekdays. The rumbling machinery whlre Incessantly and tired shift Is Teplaced by shift Indifferent as to all times of day or night. Wagons flash in. receive their bulky ' cargoes and hurry away to the nearby railwy station, to return in a few minutes for more. All night long, from the many tiers, of windows that pierce the ten- storied building, the electro-mcrcunc lamps fling their blue glare far and wide across the darkened city, silhouet ting to the Base of the daybreak pedes trlan the sweating workers ss they flit busily back and forth. It Is the busiest place In the United States-it Is business, magnified, multiplied, raised to th Ntn power. i And It must needs be busy, tnis giant ammunition factory, for it must turn out the main supply of missiles and pro jectiles tor the battles in 'this, which promises , to be the hottest campaign that ever added het to a superheated summer. And not to one, but to both belligerents must it sunpty their material; material made according to models approved by the veteran warriors of the political arena and fashioned to suit the Indi vidual ability of the fighter of the par ticular form of fighting the battle may assume in different sections of the country. Here will be found every form of literary weapon, from the 'small, caustlo leaflet, containing but a para- araoh of satire that pierces like a stssi- Jacketed bullet, to the heavy, forty-page sclld shot carefully complied iroro sta tistics, or the oratorical bombshell, ir..diA last winter by some fareeelng political general on the floor of the t.ntiM or senate with a view of burst ing this summer and scattering destruc tlon and dismay in some distant strong hold of the enemy. Ileluuu of Arguments. Great sheaf of argumentative arrows to be shot down from the stump are turned out by the hundred thousands, and shipped at ouce to the waiting political archer, while In the storerooms row on row of statistical tables, pregnant with death to the aspirations of the political opponent, stand ranked like so many cart ridge clips of the Mauser rule, reaay 10 be requisitioned by the captains in the field. Indeed, practically the sign now hanging outside the door of the govern ment printing office la; "Ammunition erved at all hours." It is principally for the 400 and odd' rep resentatives in congress that this vast hoard of literary shot and shell is manu factured. Many of them come up for re election this fall; even now, though con gress is still In session, they are girding up their waistcoats and preparing to hasten from the task of saving the coun try's national life in the halls of the cSpltol to that more Jrnmlnent one of sav ing their own political lives on the stump at home. The days when the congress man was satisfied with a handsomely em bossed expression of confidence from the hands of admiring constituents expired when the first mutterings of the coming campaign were heard last spring; what he wants now is votes votes, vbtes, noth ing but votes. . And the congressional candidate Is find ing out more aud more that the way to get Votes is not by torchlight processions and Indiscriminate kissing of babies, but by educating the voter through speeches and. written argument. Also, the voter, acquired thus, sticks, too secure in his rational convictions to be led astray by such specious methods as baby-klsslng. Accordingly, all through the sessions of congress, In which 'he has participated he has framed his speech not so. much with a view of making oratorical efforts that will charm his colleagues of the legislative halls as of making arguments that will "read well" In cold type at the cross-roads store. . , poratod in the Record, and thus, under a few slight restrictions, the orator or any of his colleagues may, at the expense of the government, obtain as many copies as he desires. Thus the government fur nishes him with all the campaign ammu nition he desires. He has, for the asking, sll manner of speeches, carefully written under the direction of party leaders, and it Is a mighty poor sort of congressman who cannot find, in all the vast amount of oratory unleashed during a term of con gress, speeches and arguments enough to overwhelm his opponent Of course, this works both ways; the opponent Is pretty generally found loaded to the Plimsoll mark with congressional oratory amply supplied to overwhelm his opponent, being supplied through his con gressional friends of the same political party from the same ammunition factory, Whereupon ensues that meeting of the Immovable and the irresistible .which In fuses so much of joy Into the dull life of the farmer during a campaign, for, be it known, a farmer will let his crop go hang and drive his plow horse ten miles to town to hear a debate between two congres sional candidates. Woeful Statistics. The amount of spell-binding literature that Is turned out for campaign purp ses by the government printing office Is amazing. While it is Impossible to ob tain exact figures, the writer was in formed by an official high u that office that the number of separate documents printed and sent out by order of various congressional candidates or obtained from the office by members of congress for the benefit of other candidates of their party would, fur the year ending with the campaign, approximate 50,000,000. This is no tale of statistics; b'U, since it Is impossible for the humai mind to grasp in the abstract any such vast quantity as 50.000,000, some concrete re lations may assist the reader to some appreciation of what this really rut. m. There is, according to this of final, an average of sixteen pages in each of the documents mentioned. This makes 800, 000,000 pages In the output. Now, if the printed pages were placed end to end they would girdle the earth CI -c times and then have enough left ovor to reach from Washington to the Philippines, it they were stacked up In a single pile they wiiuld overtop the Washlngtm monu ment?'

If the printed pages could all be laid flat, side by side, they would cover an area of ground equal to tweuty-flve square miles, or more than 16,000 acres. Bufks Large. In bulk, the total output would more than flU a room fifty feet square and forty feet high; this would embrace abjut as much room space us U contained in four or five good sized dwelling houses. The weight of these documents would be more thanj 2,000,0oo pounds, or nearly 1,000 tons; it would take a ua.n of twenty five freight cars to move them. If they were bound In book form, into the sise of an ordinary book of iKiO pages, they would make a library .f 3,'H),000 books far larger than any libray the world has ever dreamed of. If pUjd :n ordinary bookcases of five shelvas each the cases would make a row about ieven milts lo itf. Whliu thi tremendous publication t thoe ccngteselunal spaeohss Is f a stnuly poilticiil and partisan punioueu, there is no favoritism shown by the party In ptivvtr as against the full exe.'Ue of this right by those of the opp(te in.litisal tutth, a republican oan auuln his cam paign ai.. munition from the p.ii.t'nj r filou wl'4 pit otically the same as. its a demo crat, although the demutats aro in ub s'llJla ventral of the houje and practical bontivl of the senate.

The party leaders lay out tegular plan of speechmaklng, directed rot to the proposed legislation in hand, but to the issues upon which the preai dentlal and congressional campaigns will be fought out the following fall.

Wall paper that depicts hunting scenes, speeding automobiles, fairy stories and Circus parades is the latest room adorn ment fad. Most bizarre of all ts a dull black paper on which In Japanese designs parrots play among trees. Wall papers are by no means the simple proposition they used to be. The ordi nary demands were satisfied by an ordar of so many rolls at so much a roll and a certain number of yards of border, which was put on with a straight edge. Those were the days of the simple life so far as the interior decoration of the average house was concerned. Times have Indeed changed. One of the important developments came when the use of a cut out pattern In flowers or garlands, or ribbons and flowers com bined, was substituted for the old-fashioned straight band. That first step was taken only a few years ago, but the ad vances made since it led the way have been remarkable. This season brings wall paper styles of the most complex and artistic character. In a general way newest papers are those that stimulate fabrics. These are known as jaspe and grass cloth papers. They look at a distance as If they were of one color. But at closer range the fabric effect is seen to be obtained by imitating the weave with different tones of the same color. Bometlmes the imita tion of cloth or of silk is so perfect that one cannot be convinced until one has felt of the texture. Most fascinating of ah are the designs for children's rooms. A delightful frieze for a sleeping room is called bedtime and represents a white-robed procession of little folks who are so evidently under the sandman's spell that It makes one yawn just to look at them. Knrsery Papers. Nursery papers are growing more en chanting every year. There is one frieze called the Billy Circus which is as good as a picture book. It is eighteen inches high and at Its full length goes on from one circus feature to another for a length of thlrty-slx feet. First comes the cal liope of fancy, drawn by a camel, played by a laughable creature In high hat and flowing locks. Next comes a group of Jockeys, then the clowns, very much dis turbed because a pair of giraffes insist on browsing on the clown's crop of whiskers. Elephants and giants and dancing bears and performing dogs and trick donkeys and the daring lady rider bursting through a psper hoop; all these kand more form a frieze which would be a never ending source of delight to chil dren. Then there Is a set of panels called "Playtime." Each Is eleven by twenty eight Inches and in gay colors on a gray or white ground. In fact there are sev eral sets of these playtime panels. They can be placed continuously as a frieze or can be separated and used on a plain background of paper. There are other stiles for the nursery, doll panels, jungle "cutouts" or figures of animals that can be cut out and pasted on foliage paper, producing a very realistic effect. Another design, called the Barnyard, is a running design of a rail fence against a background of hills and sky. Lambs are capering in the meadows, beyond a rooster is crowing on top of the fence, a family of pigs is being watched by a little girl through the fence, and so on. The children are not the only ones for whom these wonderful wall paper pic tures are provided. Panoramic friezes, as they are called, are now shown at a few places that rival good paintings as mural decorations. In fact they are copied from oil paintings made expressly for that purpose. One Of these Is called "The Forest" and comes in seotions al most four feet wide by six feet high. These are used as panels, separated by wooden strips and with a panelled wainscoting below. 1 There are several of these woodland pictures, some to be used around the upper section of the side wall and giving a really beautiful effect of atmosphere and distance. They are lovely In color ing and composition. One which is called "Le Soir" (Evening) is claimed to be beyond anything that has been at tempted in wall paper. It Is almost four feet deep and ten feet long. The same scene can be repeated of course continu ously around a room, or can be used on each side surrounded by appropriate border designs, or a different picture can be used on each side wail. There is a corresponding painting (for these seem almost like the original painting) called "Le Matin" (Morning). Most of these designs come also In tapestry effects, some of them so well done as almost to defy detection. And then there are the lively friezes intended for billiard rooms, smoking rooms and similar apartments. One of these, described as "an automobile tour in southern California," shows successive happenings to various motorists among the palms and orange trees and old mis sions of the Pacific slope. In one of them a country boy is trying to control tiin unsophisticated old Dobbin, who Is doing an agitated two step on his hind l$gs at the sight of the devil wagon. Poetic Justice is satisfied in another section of the series, where the motorist ' has .crawled under his disabled car and Is tinkering at it while the women of the party wander amid the tropical vegeta tion of the landscape; This frieze Is thirty inches deep and runs for thirty feet without coming to the end of the tour in southern Cali fornia. Other automobile friezes are pro vided; but neither Is the horse forgotten. There are wonderful coaching scenes; hunting scenes where scarlet coated riders and spotted hounds follow the deer through the forest and over hills, leaping fences and tumbling into streams; an other hunting scene of colonial days, and still another with hounds, riders and spectators gathering for an English meet All of these are well drawn and colored and are so tempting that one would like to have a whole houseful of aproprlate rooms to put them in. One of the coach ing friezes is made up of scenes from Dickens. Paneled Rooms. As a contrast to these vigorous de signs there is a music room scheme in lovely soft grays, but with the inevitable separation of the wall into panels by the use of cut strips applied to the founda tion paper. The panels, of course, do not reach the celling. There Is a frieze, It self divided Into panels, in the center ot each of which Is a lovely oblong medal lion showing a sort of Watteau musioal party. Here one finds the only real color in the whole scheme. The man's coat is pink, the two women wear pale blue. With this exception everything Is in tones of gray and pearl and white. The most bizarre of the novelties are the imported black papers whjch Eng land has taken up with considerable eagerness. The ground is a dull black, on which, in the leading Japanese de signs, gay parrots disport themselves among the branches of flowering tree These black papers are the only onsa now fashionable in which there is an all over floral design. One of them Is thickly covered with conventionalized sprays of small green leaves. But even in this case the wall Is to be divided Into the Inevitable panels. Th? strips provided for this purpose are abou ten Inches wide and have a black back ground against which on a green branch site a peacock, very long and very gay as to his neck and tall. 'Furniture houses are showing black bedroom sets with painted designs of parrots and birds of paradise and flowers. The idea of one of these black rooms, even relieved by the gay birds and floral decoration, is somewhat depressing; but the theory is that It will be quite the re- . . . . k.. Knmp au- verse.

An Interesting fight promises to develop over the settlement of the estate, for a son, Henry, the only direct heir, reached the court house almost as soon as the other relatives and filed objections to the probating of the wtlL . He seeks to have the will set aside so be may get pos session of the estate.

The relatives who were to benefit by it remained at the Montgomery home all night ready for the dash to the court as soon as the dying man had passed away. To add to the turmoil, two undertakers had a misunderstanding about the funeral arrangements, each declaring he had authority to conduct the funeral.
