look well for members of the congressional party accompanying the late remains through this city last Sunday night to stand beside the fune ral car in the union depot and joke and laugh in a

Yokes encouraged by the success that she has met with everywhere is thinking of es tablishing herself permanently in this coun try Like Mod her ambition seems to be to establish a stock theatre where

only good hotel In that beautiful tourist district Numerous petitions of protest will be pre sented before the licensing court which meets next month and an effort will be made to have it require the hotel to be kept sentations cannot be made now as in the war and slavery eras and brilliant men find their talents meet with readier ap preciation in other fields of usefulness SMALL EEWARD OR PUBLIC SERVICE One trouble about getting first class men is the inadequacy of the reward they get for serving the public A man who is not willing to go into the supreme court while he is a 'congressman and argue a case as the attorney for a corporation and who is not seeking channels for investments like a late president remains a poor man as long as he continues in public life One of the most brilliant men that Massachusetts has sent to the house for several years is ex Governor John Long He is an able lawyer who might have become a leader at the bar and made a large fortune but he entered public life when young and Has never felt quite ready to quit it As gover nor and representative he has lived on the salary paid him and has been obliged to pay out every cent of his income to meet current expenses He has I am told only a few thousands of dollars not more than many a young man starts with in life He is a poor man as men are rated to day and his prospect of ever becoming independent is extremely dim There are plenty of such men in congress Samuel Randall has spent a lifetime in congress and is obliged to live as plainly as a twelve hundred dollar clerk to make both ends meet He lives in a very plain and almost shabby house on Capitol hill and has practiced economy all his days I doubt if he is worth fifteen thousand dol lars and yet he is getting to a point in life when his earning capacity in any business pursuit would be limited Another hon orable poor man in congress is Senator Shelby Cullom of Illinois He was elect ed city attorney of Springfield in the same year that he was admitted to the bar and has served continuously ever since either as a member of the Illifiois legislature or of congress I am told he is not worth more than five thousand dollars over and above his salary of five thousand a year as a sen ator His colleague General Logan is also in very moderate circumstances He is worth perhaps twenty tnousand or twenty five thousand dollars 4s small

has been so absurdly compared by the Bell telephone organs But whatever it might have been in the hands of Rogers father and son un der favorable opportunities Garland Harris Johnston and other holders of the stock took care that there should be no cor ruption in the development and that no in nocent parties should be defrauded by the sale of Pan Electric shares Dunn of Ar kansas is on the admission of Rogers the only member of congress to whom shares were transferred for a money consideration The worst that the Rogers group have been capable of charging whether on their own knowledge or ou hearsay casts no reflec tion on the honor of the administration or the integrity of any of its members Yet the howl against Attorney General Gar land is still keot up and the threat is made of rejecting Solicitor General Goode in the senate It is true that the pretext of an old political scandal is made against Solicitor General Goode but his rejection if accom plished will be due to the

Tribune John Oberly wants a fair show He says he abjured the spoils doctrine long ago when he was the minority member of Gov ernor railroad board Every republican was upraiding Cullom for keep ing him on the board and every democrat was angry with him for staying there Be tween both parties they nearly got him out but had they done so he says he would have been swamped He had given up his private business to serve the public and had he been thrown out of office would have been a sufferer thereby He then saw the evil resulting from turning a man out of office before his term was up and has been a believer in civil service ever since When Oberly took the position of general superintendent of Indian schools he says he found that every one connected in the remotest way from Indian agent to cook and scrub woman with the education of Indians was a repub lican When the president made changes in Indian agents he usually appointed democrats who immediately set out to provide for their friends by ousting the re publican attaches of the agencies and filling their places with democrats THE MADE A CLEAN SWEEP and left no republicans in office no matter how efficient they had been or how deficient their successors were This practice worked to the great disadvantage of the Indian schools Te put a stop tait Oberly issued a general order requiring every agent after had made a change to send to him the reasons for the removal of the former in cumbent and for the appointment of his successor This order was not effective be cause the agents would make the changes and delay sending in the reports until it was too late to remedy them Another or der was issued requiring before any change was made the reasons for the removal of one and the appointment of another and the change was not made until approved by the superintendent This order has been faithfully carried out and has resulted in the: separation in several cases of the schools from tne agencies where agents were not promoting their best interests Many republicans have been retained in their positions and new appointments of teachers have been made frem a list of those who had passed a satisfactory exam ination Oberly refers to a speech htmade at A CONERENCE ON INDIAN MATTERS when he first became superintendent in which he says: be entirely frank with you I will say that if a vacancy existed in any school and there were two candidates for the place one a democrat and the other a republican and they were of equal abil ity and merit no agent or superintendent would be called into question if he were to prefer the democrat but he would be ap plauded every time he preferred a worthy and competent republican to an unworthy and incompetent He says he has carried this doctrine into practice In fact Oberly believes he has ran the Indian bureau on a civil service plan and that with the experience he has obtained there will be able to perform his new duties fairly and impartially In going out of his office he recommends

Herald Waterbury Ct March 20 The boom ing and crashing of last storm was frightful and the greatest amount of dam age was expected by the frightened people The most deplorable results of the storm are now in the undertaking rooms of John Moriarty the blackened remains of the two young women victims of the terrible work Sarah and Jane McGaffey were aged twenty and elghten years re spectively and lived with father mother and sister Nellie aged ten in house near the railroad station at Water town In the house also lived Mr and Mrs Clarence Cook and their young habe At one A the house was almost totally wrecked by a bold of lightning and the ground for rods around was tom up as though just ploughed Mrs McGaffey thus describes the disaster fromwhich' it is wonderful that any one escaped alive: had been sick ana was not tfble to sleep When the thunder commenced I had a feeling that something dreadful was going to happen because of a thunder storm at this time of the year When the second crash came Nellie awoke and said she was glad I was awake for the thunder made her feel so lonesome Just then the house seemed tearing all to pieces and the ilaster began to fall down on me and Nel le The light was put out and I thought the top of the house was broken in and that my htisband was killed I got up and taking my little girl by the hand felt my way to the chamber door 4 1 could not open it as it was all blocked up Then I heard my husband screaming that the house was on tire He came down to the door but could not open it until he had kicked and lushed for some time with all his strength We then went to the door of the bed room but that was blocked up too I thought they had not been awakened at all by the thunder But my husband fearing the worst ran out of doors naked and go ing round to the rear found that side of the house all open the room in ruins and the wall overhead all fallen down He cried out that the girls were killed and began to pull away the rubbish He found Jane and Sarah and we thought they were both dead but after a while Sarah began to moan and we got her out She knew us but could not talk as her tongue was split in two Soon after the doctor came she

Enrages a School Teacher River (N Special Boston Herald Ephraim Emson is one of the wealthi est men in Ocean county He is tall and muscular and well preserved He not onlyowns some of the largest cranberry bogs in the country but he is the owner of nearly all the property constituting the village of Colliers Mills a few miles from here As a politician Emson has been very prominent for years He virtually controlled the dem ocratic party of the county and distributes its nominations every fall He was state senator from the county from 1878 to 1881 Since he retired from the senatorship he has occupied only the political position of free holder from Jackson township where he lives One of pet hobbies is the little school at Colliers Mills About a year ago MISS LOUISE BLACKMAN was made principal of the school She came well recommended from the state normal school and received ex Senator in dorsement She had a petite figure and was pretty She has had few equals at the mills but during the last few months Ejn son has taken a decided dislike to Miss Blackman The reason is said to have been because he wanted to put a friend of his family in her place The trustees of the school of which Emson is one were a tie on the question A new trustee had to be chosen and Emson began using his efforts to elect a trustee who was opposed to Miss Blackman The fight grew very warm The teacher had a great many friends who backed her up Then it was rumored that the ex senator was spreading stories that tended to ruin the pretty reputa tion This of course added to the excite ment Hence when a special meeting for the election of trustees was called for last Wednesday the schoolhouse was crowded with the friends and foes of Miss Blackman Emson was there occupying a chair near the platform Just as the ballot was being collected the door opened and Miss Black man entered Her face was flushed and her eyes sparkled She advanced between the desks until she stood directly in front of the ex senator Then she lifted a long and TOUGH LOOKING BIRCH SWITCH and brought it down with a swish upon shoulder The ex senator jumped to his feet The blows came thicker and faster upon the big cranberry legs arms shoulders and neck He warded them off as best he could and made no attempt to strike back When the pretty teacher was exhausted she handed the switch to one of her friends and sat down with her cheeks aglow The moment the threshing stopped there was great excitement A motion to adjourn was carried and then talking became general Emson laughed good naturedly and went home to nurse his bruises The teacher received the congratu lations of her friends and said she punished the senator because of the damaging and untruthful things he had said Her reputa tion has been of the best and she is under stood to" be engaged to a promising young lawyer in New York Since Thursday she has been suffering from nystericsr ana vous prostration 6 14 13 13 18 18 18 26 103 102 102 II 24 24 24 i Washington March Mr Edmunds did a little service to the democratic party in 1884 by' his attitude of hostility to Mr Blaine and it now appears that he is serving the party another good turn in his attack upon the president This last service has not been intentional on his part but it has been just as effective He has stirred up the laggard and the lukewarm members of the party in the senate to stand by the ad ministration he has brought out the fact that no president was ever more conserva tive and careful more desirous of serving the people faithfully than Mr Cleveland he has shown that the republican party still continues to be unworthy of power and that it has sunk simply into an organiza tion with no other mission than meaning less opposition to good government and he has'driven out from under cover the Blaine men to oppose his own ambition for 1888 or these things the demoratic party owes Mr Edmunds a debt of gratitude If the democrats in the senate should wind up the farce that is now being enacted there daily with formal vote of thanks to Mr Edmunds for putting their party in good shape for the coming campaign it would bea fit ending to the whole business A POLITICAL blunder The republican senators without excep tion I think now regard Mr at tack on the administration as a political 'blunder that will do great harm to the re publicans He forced them into the fight in the first place and they have been reluctant followers 'He will probably hold them together long enough to pass his vote of censure upon the attorney general and his buncombe resolution about the old soldiers and then there will be a general scramble to confirm all the nomyiations Even Mr Burnett the suc cessor to the much talked about and sus pended Duskin will be confirmed with the rest It is pretty well understood that Don Cameron Van Wyck Hale Plumb Teller and Stanford and probably Jones of Neva da will vote with the democrats to confirm all of the nominations thus far made un less serious charges are presented against the nominees This will break the back bone of the Edmunds movement and we shall hear no more of it PLEASED REPUBLICAN SENATORS If the truth were known I suspect that at least six republican candidates for presi dent are very much pleased at the plight in which Brother Edmunds findshimself He is just now the inbst used up of them all though Logan is pressing him pretty hard Logan has injured himself very much by posing as the friend of the old soldier and getting into all sorts of pension jobs and schemes to catch the soldier vote boom for 1888 has been in the especial keep ing of Colonel Dudley the late commission er of pensions and that gentleman stands exposed before the country as an unprinci pled officeholder who used a place of great nnMir fmat na a nnlitical machine The evidence collected by Commissioner Black proves beyond controversy tnau jjucueyuseu nis office unsparingly to get votes for Blaine and Logan in 1884 Piles of affidavits have been xsent here by old soldiers who have had their eyes opened to work charging him with many serious offenses in political campaigns usefulness as a poli tician is at an end so far as the old soldier element is concerned and his leadership in the Logan movement is a detriment to Blackjack espousal of the old soldier element among the suspended office holders has hurt him too He has not been careful to gain information about the men whose cause he championed and the result is that he win De snown to me cuuuuj us supoorter of some very bad and incompe ent men STANDING BY THE VETERANS It may as well be said right here that when the facts are made known it will be shown that the veterans of the late war have had as much at the hands of this ad ministration as under any other Hearing a republican congressman ranting the other day about the displacing of Union soldiers in the treasury department by ex confeder ates I hadthelcuriosityto get the exact facts I found that while it was! true that many intemperate and Incompetent cleras who had been soldiers had been discharged from the department an equal number of equally worthy soldiers had been assigned places The record showed that there was just one Union soldier less in the department than there was on the 4th day of March last not withstanding the fact that there had been a reduction of several hundred men in the clerical force employed What is true of this department is true of every other A MODEL PUBLIC SERVANT Representative Abram Hewitt has ob tained indefinite leave' of absence and I understand he intends to be absent much of the session He has announced that he will not accept a renomination to congress ana he considers his public career as closed Mr Hewitt has made a long and gallant struggle against insomnia and general physical wretchedness and it has been at great personal sacrifice that he has so long remained at what to him has been the post of duty or so able a public man one with such a decided turn for affairs Mr Hewitt has been singularly unambitious He never cared for a seat in congress and yet with this year he will have completed ten years of service as a representative Mr retirement is nothing short of a public loss He has brought to bear upon the questions of the day intense study and profound research Unless it be Mr Carlisle 1 believe there is no man in the house who has given more conscientious thought to questions of the day than Mr Hewitt He has infirmities of temper and at times a crustiness of manner that have detracted from his popularity with his fel low members yet after he is gone it will ne the universal testimony of his colleagues that he was take him all in all the ablest and best equipped member on the floor of the house Mr Hewitt will be sixty four years of age in July He is a small man weighing per haps 150 pounds and not over 5 feet 8 inches in stature His form is bent his face pale and haggard He does not seem to be prematurely old either for his step is brisk and firm and his brown hair is not whiter than that of men generally at his age It he could get a year of rest with eight hours sltep every night he would take a new lease of life and probably appear ten years younger I understand that ne intends to go abroad the coming summer Mr ia mnn nf laTUe means 111S wife inherited from half a million to a million from her father

Obscuring vales where rivered virtues flowed Reproof became reproach till common grew The captious word at every fault 1 knew He smiled upon the censorship and bore With patient love the touch that wounded sore Until at length so had my blindness grown He knew I judged him by his faults alone Alone of all men I who knew him best Refuse the gold to take the dross for test! Cold strangers honored for the worth they saw His friend forgot the diamond in the flaw At last it the day he stood apart When from my eyes he proudly veiled his heart When carping judgment and uncertain word A stern resentment in his bosom stirred When in his face I read what I had been And with his vision saw what he had seen Too late! too late!
